Upstairs Hallway (Survivor Aichi)

-We all know the drill about this Aichi's appearance, but once again the gist is: Unkempt, permanent stains on clothes, ripped up clothes, crowbar strapped to back.-

-Reminiscing...-

"I see... I know the feeling... Reminiscing, I mean..."

-He still finds himself thinking back to the happier days back home...-

-...Of course he's not letting himself get sucked into the past, but it's still a little hard to get it out of his mind...-

"You just get hit by it all at once..."

Iwasawa: ... (mouth hangs open, then closes, then opens again as she searches for an appropriate response) Um...yeah, get hit...So...

(Aichi can probably her the rising tension in her voice, even as she stays calm in tone.)

Iwasawa's Room (Survivor Aichi)

-...-

-...Aichi knows that type of reaction...-

-The rising tension... He knows it well.-

-He never feels at ease anymore, but there are certain things that seem to trigger it... make it worse...-

-Being suddenly approached from behind, hearing something loud, anything that reminds him of Youmu...-

-...Yeah. He feels it too. Far too often.-

-She's trying to keep calm. Something about what he said is making her tense up.-

-...Similar to himself...-

-He feels extremely guilty now...-

"...Sorry... I'll be more careful from now on."

-...Perhaps he should try to change the subject...-

"...I'm Aichi Sendou. What's your name?"

Iwasawa: Masami Iwasawa. (Places the guitar beside her on the bed.) Gonna be straightforward - you, uh...look like you've been having a rough time.

Iwasawa's Room (Survivor Aichi)

"Nice to meet you."

-A rough time... Yeah, he has.-

"...It's a long story."

-Not to mention he has flashbacks if he tries to give too much detail...-

"You wouldn't want to hear it..."

-Especially since she seems to have her own problems...-

megarockman from The Sixth Borough (Experienced Trainee)
#1320531: Jun 18th 2018 at 9:07:03 AM

Iwasawa: You know, that kind of response usually invites people to be more curious about you.

(Caster is atop the roof, seated in... a golden throne?)

-...Oh geez, she's right... He actually looks sort of sheepish now.-

"...You have a point."

-But seriously...-

"...I struggle talking about it... It was, um... intense..."

-...For lack of a better word.-

megarockman from The Sixth Borough (Experienced Trainee)
#1320534: Jun 18th 2018 at 9:21:29 AM

Iwasawa: (holds hands up) Hey, I won't pry if you don't want to talk about it.

-He's thankful that she's not pressing the issue more.-

"Thank you..."

-...?-

-...Is there something out there...?-

"...Is something wrong?"

#1320536: Jun 18th 2018 at 9:38:19 AM

Iwasawa: Uh, no, not really, just...wanted know what the weather's like outside. (Uh-huh.) ...you been here long?

-Varace is in the basement, hunched over a bench-

-He's doing something with his rifle, which is sitting on the bench, partially disassembled-

Iwasawa's Room (Survivor Aichi)

-...Yeah, he doesn't believe that for a second...-

"I've been here..."

-...Wait, how long has he been here? His sense of time was kind of screwed up because of that whole dreamworld thing... How long was he in there? How long was he being led around by G?-

-Kind of makes it hard to think back to just how long he's been here...-

"...for a little while."

-...He's curious about the 'weather' as well...-

"...How is the weather? I haven't looked outside yet..."

-He can see the window from here, right? What can he see?-

(Sunny day, maybe a couple of small clouds drifting by.)

Iwasawa: Looks alright, unless you're a vampire.

-...Huh, maybe he's just being paranoid again...-

"Ah... Yeah, it does look rather nice..."

-...Ack, things are getting awkward now...-

"...What about you? How long have you been in this place?"

megarockman from The Sixth Borough (Experienced Trainee)
#1320541: Jun 18th 2018 at 10:17:42 AM

Iwasawa: ...Honestly? No idea. The days just seem to come and go. Though that's not really much different than where I was before, I guess.

-He's not doing anything too particularly revolutionary; he's mostly picking it apart and inspecting each piece, on the hunt for... something-

You scrounging up gunpowder for something?

Iwasawa's Room (Survivor Aichi)

"I think I understand what you mean..."

-He nearly sighs.-

"It's strange, isn't it? Time either moves very rapidly, or painfully slowly..."

-He seems to slip into his thoughts, perhaps seeming a tad zoned out.-

-He's usually decent about not losing his focus, but sometimes he finds himself slipping into something of a... well, not a trance obviously, but he finds himself kind of getting lost in his thoughts.-

-How many times has it felt like everything was moving so slowly during his adrenaline rushes...? Or how many times did it feel like an eternity as he tried to remain quiet and hidden...?-

-And then there were the times it all seemed to blur by, in the rush of a fight...-

-...An unsettling feeling...-

-He can't help but find himself thinking back to it all...-

-...No, no... Don't focus on it. Try to keep yourself in the present...-

-He manages to snap himself out of that, although it's still clear that it's still on his mind.-

-Think of something to say, anything to say... Something to change the subject.-

"...U-Um..."

-Iwasawa can probably tell he's rather desperately trying to get his mind off of something... Not to mention the somewhat frantic stutter...-

Nah, not gunpowder. I'm not carrying around some museum antique with me. That shit'd just be impractical.

I've got a feeling there's sand somewhere inside of it. Trying to find it so it doesn't blow up in my face later on.

foxmccloud4387 Since: Mar, 2011
#1320547: Jun 18th 2018 at 11:01:19 AM

Oof. If that blew up in your face, that'd be pretty rough. And irritating.

#1320548: Jun 18th 2018 at 11:01:20 AM

Iwasawa: (visually tries to search for a non-uncomfortable subject, glancing over to her guitar) You like music, Sendou?

Yeah, something tells me that there aren't any spare laser rifles growing on trees around here. Wouldn't want to lose the thing I use for self defense most of the time. I'm a big guy, but punching everything just isn't a good idea.

-Music...-

-He nods.-

"Yeah, I do..."

-Not that he's had the chance to listen to any of his music... He had music on his phone, but it was stolen too... Not to mention that music would just attract noise.-

-He used to enjoy listening to music a lot... Heck, he even used to sing along in private.-

-He never particularly wanted anyone to hear him though.-

-At the very least the subject change is helping. And it's a subject he somewhat enjoys.-

-He may have never mentioned it, but Aichi has a healthy appreciation for music.-
