Let's See What's In The Cards (Mmhm)

[missrecalled_mods]

The weather was still bitterly cold, and the snow was still thick on the ground, but it was finally possible to at least go outside by the front doors. The King and Queen have still forbidden anyone from staying overnight at the museum district in case it started snowing again. But the King could be seen outside trying to shovel snow enough to make a path to the castle at the least.

The snow was still too thick to get easily anywhere not shoveled, and the snow was so heavy that even beasted out, Ben needed to take constant breaks inside to sit down and dry off. This wasn't going to be a fast task.

It was only made harder when it started. For those who slept, it would start after they have fully awoken for the day. For those who don't sleep, they'd find that they had fallen into a pleasant daydream, even if it wasn't normal for them to do so. When they came out of it, that was when it would start for them.

But what is it, exactly?

Small snippets of memories, playing for anyone who was with the person remembering to see. But the thing was, these memories... were memories the person had not yet made. Memories of the future.

Not enough to give answers, probably not enough to give reassurances for much other than "oh hey, I do have a future after all," but generally pleasant, and short. Hey, it will give people a thing to talk about, at least. Especially since this will go on for the next two weeks or so.

He scoffed, another self-deprecating smile twisting his lips. "I feel like awkward is an understatement."

He sighed. Glanced back up at Sephiroth. "Who uh... who taught you?" The older man had mentioned he hadn't been born with his wings, so how had he learned how to use them?

Sephiroth believed he hadn't been, at least. Later he'll learn he was born with two of them and retracted them in terror at a young age to protect them from his world's version of Hojo.

"I mostly taught myself from watching birds fly," he admitted. "Wings are not common in my world."

Re: Blame

"I see... that's pretty impressive. I guess I've always been too scared to try." And the small detail that he had been hiding his wings almost since he first got to Insomnia, but that wasn't something he felt like bringing up.

Re: Blame

[3wingedangel]

"Thank you." A pause. "If you would like, I could teach you some things."

Or maybe he would prefer learning from his friends. Sephiroth would understand that. From the vision, if it is indeed a future memory, they will teach him later.

"Oh, um, I-" His wings curled in even tighter, till the muscles ached. "I appreciate the offer, really. I'm just not sure- I wouldn't want to be a bother." He wasn't sure why the idea of learning scared him quite so much.

Re: Blame

[3wingedangel]

"It wouldn't be a bother," Sephiroth said. "There isn't always a lot to do here. But if you would prefer to learn from your friends, that's fine."

Re: Blame

[kings_knight_rocks]

Actually, if he could learn before he reunited with his friends, then he would never have to have that embarrassing conversation with them. "If you're sure... I just uh, need some time, but I would like that."

Re: Blame

[3wingedangel]

Sephiroth nodded, pleased to be able to be useful. "Just let me know when you're ready."

Re: Blame

[kings_knight_rocks]

Prompto nodded, a small smile taking hold of his mouth. "Thank you. Again."

Re: Blame

[3wingedangel]

"Of course," Sephiroth said with a nod. He stepped back, probably going to leave if something else didn't happen.

sounds like we're done, thank you for the thread!

[kings_knight_rocks]

Prompto let him go, glad for his company, and loath to take any more of the man's time. He was going to stay in his spot on the floor a little while longer to gather his thoughts.
