[That is, to be as loud as possible until it is heard, until it is potentially helped. What else could it really do, for the sort of planet it was?]
no subject
[He groans loudly, making a show of his complaint as he falls back against the sand, one arm pillowed under his head and the other held up for Kova to sniff if he wants.]
You doin' okay now? I heard you went all wonky when we first got here.
no subject
[She absolutely needed help to deal and... while she's not so certain as to how she feels about that, there's no reason to hide it, really.
Kova turns his head to start sniffing at Taako. Even with Honerva definitely showing him much more affection now than she had been, he still enjoyed quality time with others he had made a point of endearing himself to back at the start.]
The energy of the planet is strong... so it was difficult to handle being here at first, even after I could determine what it wanted. The best result in getting away from the noise was when we accessed a pocket dimension.
no subject
Pocket dimension?
[Not a lot of people can make that here. And the only one he knew who would probably be trusted by Honerva to do such a thing?
Pfft, of course she'd be a bleeding heart over this.]
So Lulu showed you her Magic Mansion, huh?
no subject
... That she did. She is well deserving of the highest possible grade for it. Even Kova had a room to keep at play in, with his companion of course.
no subject
Right, Ditto.
[Fuck, now he remembers helping her name it that. He gave her such shit for it when he didn't have his memory and now he knows it's partially his fault. WELP, yeeting that info into the back of his brain.]
Yeah, it's a pretty baller spell. I still need to take a spin in it since I'm responsible for giving her the components she needed for the spell, and now I know she's not gonna, like, close it with me inside. Unless it was a prank, which-- considering what I did recently. She might. Who knows.
no subject
She had truly marveled at that house, mostly because it... felt right. Felt real, despite being a magicked up place, for all that went into it, the expression of it. Though in part that could have been a lot of appreciation for the relief of not having her senses and thoughts being derailed by the planet.]
... It takes a lot out of her, but perhaps if you asked nicely, she would not mind. What did you do?
no subject
[Lup had been sidestepping around offering him a tour before because of his memory issues, but now? Well, now he was fully himself again and, well...actually she was technically mad at him for pranking her, but fuck it. It'd been one hell of a good prank.]
And I made that ivory door she needs to channel the spell. Dunno if you saw it when she cast - but she asked me to transmute it awhile back. That shit took work and that was before I even had all my shit together.
no subject
[But for the bulk of what he has said... it actually takes her a moment, because the way he evaded her question and yet answered one she hadn't quite asked proper was... disturbing her, the more the conversation continued. Had something changed...? Surely Lup would have mentioned...?]
no subject
[He yawns and stretches out against the warm sand before resettling in his original lazy position. It was nice, just pseudo-sunbathing like this.]
And thanks for the thanks. I worked hard on that for like...10 minutes. Twenty? Something like that. She handed it over awhile ago, back when she was making that uh...
[He raises his hands, tossing up a pair of air quotes.]
"Other network" that people've been using. I dunno if I even need to keep that secret anymore. That shit's out in the world now.
no subject
[And for someone like her who could barely keep track of time, it did feel like a while ago. That was nearly back when the pair had first arrived, after all. She was still adjusting to their presence then, of still getting her bearings with ... experiencing things again. So much of her perceptions had changed that it was difficult, to think back to that mindset.]
Around the time of your arrival here.
no subject
[He shrugs again and stretches his long legs out on the sand, crossing them at the ankles.]
Kinda ridiculous now when I think about it, but y'know, Taako's all about preserving Numero Uno and shit was all sideways back then.
So after taking a spin in the ol' Mansion, you're feeling better? You go listen to the planet and get something in return or are you just trying really hard to ignore it?
no subject
[Even if it was hard for him, it said enough that was able to find a way to trust Lup, back then. It almost seemed that he'd... regretted it now. Hm.]
... I have listened to it. Hard not to, when it has been so... intent. What it has tried to restore to me is... complicated. That seems to be the way, with these sorts of planets.
no subject
[He snorts at his own word choice and then opens his eyes again, watching Honerva.]
So what'd it try to give you in return? Something weird? A better fashion sense?
no subject
[On some level, it's strange to have this conversation with Taako, but on the other, maybe not so strange.]
It could not provide... memory, but there were concepts, to grasp.
no subject
Maybe it couldn't provide it to you, you mean. So, if they couldn't give you memories of home, what'd it give you? A picture? Some sorta book?
no subject
... It led me to a place where there were flowers that I knew but could not yet recognize. I was... there for some time, until I came across this item from my past. I could not tell you the context for it, aside from that.
[An implication that she had achieved something, anyway. She had brought a flower back to the ship as well, which he might have seen in passing.]
no subject
Looks like some kinda award....? Maybe you won nicest face markings in your office? Definitely not Best Conversationalist.
[He knows the flower though - he's seen it on the ship.]
Stuff from the time you can't remember though, huh? Maybe it'll come back to you?
no subject
[There were times she wondered how recoverable it all was. The parts of herself that were not so entwined to others. The way she would feel less, when there was still so much more.]
It is a reminder, if nothing else. Even if I am unable to recall what the exact meaning is, it must have meant something once.
[If she had not realized there was any connection at all, what worth would it have had?]
You seem as though you must have received something far greater.
