[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

This is how I've always been.
The hero.

Its unbecoming for me to let it all out in front of someone else.
I can save everyone. I can do it all as long as I don't let others see me crumble.

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

That right... Well you do seem like a troublesome one. So I guess I'm not too surprised.

But Kiana... I'm serious. Don't shoulder this alone. If you keep things in, how am I supposed to understand you properly?

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

In normal circumstances.
You and I would've bashed heads over this.

We did actually fight once.
Hand to hand.

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

. . .

[She just gets closer even at the risk of pushing her away that she fears so much.]

Don't hold back for my sake... Maybe it wouldn't do good. But neither will holding it in.

Don't pull away, don't hold back anything.

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

Because what good would breaking down do?

I can be upset at the situation
But I refuse to be upset at you.

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

Never be upset at me huh? Then why does it feel like...

You're doing your best to put on a strong face? To try and not give into emotions in front of me?

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

There is nothing to forgive.
There is no resentment. There is no anger towards you.

I would never in a million years be upset at you for circumstances outside of our control.

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

I don't want to lose you more.
I cannot express that enough.

But the pieces broken on the floor? Aren't yours to put back together.

There is no reason you need cut yourself on glass when your hands should remain undamaged.

| She smiles. |

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

Ah...

[She fell silent for a bit... What can she even say at that point? She's at a loss for words.]

I'm... sorry...

[She dared not step closer afraid of just driving her away.]

What I ask of you is selfish... And your right by all accounts... I don't remember...
+

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

But you disappeared. I left to the moon.

Things changed.
Time forgot us.
And I moved on. Asking me to try something I once had with someone who can't remember is akin to a stranger asking me to love them.

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

How can you reconnect to something you can't even remember?

| Kiana was trying so hard not to breakdown or cry. She kept her distance. It was the only way she could make sure her heart didn't shatter on the spot. |

They say time apart makes the heart grow fonder

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

Kiana... Well maybe not start anew... But... Well it's hard to put into words.

[Huh... Hearing her switch names so suddenly kinda hurts a bit.]

I don't know what happens from here on... But even if I've forgotten... I still want to reconnect.

If if it'll be difficult...
+

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

| She address the other by her more proper name now. The one she choose. |

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

I'm. . .

| She laughs a bit, squeezing the other's hand before pulling away slightly. Staring at her. Its' like a magic mirror but far more crude and cruel in it's trick. |

Starting anew would only break my heart more
Acheron.

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

. . .

To be honest... I can't even remember what your mei even looks like. My past truly is a mystery.

However...

[Just taking her hand holding it gently, as she smiles.]

We can always start anew. Even if my time may be limited.
+

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

| There is silence, clearly thinking of the proper response to the other. |

No. I doubt I really could.
You're Mei, but I don't know if you're MY Mei anymore.
And that's okay. Grief is the price we pay for love.

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

Maybe... In the end I still don't know. But for once... I'd like to believe it is.

[Just a sigh follows... If it really was true, then the fact she forgot might eat away at her.]

But where do we from here now? I'm not sure if you'd be able to find those same feelings for me now

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

Perhaps it was.
| She would let the other lean into her hand a few more moments before pulling it away.|

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

Kiana...

[Just leaning a bit into her touch.]

Maybe that's what that feeling in me was about...

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

| Kiana just smiles, and cups Acheron's cheek. |

Being able to see you again is enough for me.

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

I... Doesn't make me feel much better. I wish I could make it up to you.

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

I think its safe to say that chapter of our lives is over.
| She gives Mei a gentle smile. |

And that's okay. Its not your fault.

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

Oh, I see...

Well... This now feels a bit embarrassing. Sorry that I forgot.

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

It wouldn't be far too off the mark.

| She says with a gentle smile on her lips. |

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

Were you and I... Lovers?

Or is that a bit much?

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

Close. Very very close.

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

"Your" mei?

Does that mean we were close? Or I guess together like... Well y'know.

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

How could I not?

| She asks with such a gentle expression. |

You were MY Mei.

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

You noticed huh? I see.

But yes... I am.

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

You're losing your sense of self.
I could tell when I saw you.

You're fading away.

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

[Just taking a seat next to her.]

Where do I begin... I suppose to put simply... I guess you could say I'm dying in a sense.

When my world was destroyed... I became entangled with that of the nihility.

It's more than my memories I'm losing.

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

| She would frown. Taking a seat as she looked at the other with such sweet concern. |

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

Kiana... Let's sit first. Then I'll tell you.

It's... I'm sure something you won't enjoy hearing.

[K i a n a K a s l a n a @EVRLASTFLAMES]

The last time I saw you. . . It was a long long time ago.

So seeing you as you are now?
It makes me. . . A bit sad.

[Acheron @StygianThunders]

Even I struggle to remember all the details, but I will tell you... Just... Not right now.

[Just a hand raising and patting her head.]

Thank you for worrying though, Kiana.
