[Accidental Video] un:gaia


Two robed figures stand amidst a semi-circle of pillars surrounding a statue. To call it a room would be a struggle. It seems to float in a void of swirling black clouds and purple light. One is a blond male with very dark skin while the other a fair skinned woman with dark hair.

The latter, for those who have seen Gaia before, might be considered... related? Perhaps not an 'older' version of the girl in question, exactly. But she's definitely an older person. Certainly familiar in some ways.

"Oh, Lohgrif, how long has it been... How long have I dreamed of this day," speaks the man. His voice warm and gentle.

The woman turns her head away.

"Is that you, Mitron? Forgive me, I didn't recognize you..." But 'Lohgrif' does look Mitron's way again and gestures in an apologetic manner. "In my defense, my memories have only recently been restored. My mind is still a little hazy."

It's clear there's no need for that apology though. Mitron understands. But then he too experiences the same thing time and again. That
they go through time and again.

"Hardly surprising. No matter how many times we are reborn, it is disorienting to have everything change around you." But then he smiles warmly. "Even so, I immediately recognized your resplendant soul. And I cling to the hope that one day you will likewise remember mine. You always were a forgetful one."

Lohgrif sighs and turns away again while crossing her arms; an expression of feeling that anyone having a conversation with an exasperated Gaia has seen at least once. A peturbed expression but... there's absolutely no force behind it.

"I could never forget you," she says dryly. "Try as I might." She holds her pride for a moment more.

"But tell me," Lohgrif begins as she glances back Mitron's way. "What do you know of my past? I admit, my memory may... need refreshing."

Mitron nods before looking up at the statue they stand near the base of. As Lohgrif follows the direction of his gaze, the man opens his mouth.


"ARTE!" A very Gaia protest breaks in, "What are you doing!?" The scene very abrupt and suddenly focuses again on more Trench-like surroundings. A warm kitchen with possessions strewn about being either used or repaired or cooked; despite progress on the rest of her home over the months, she still has a habit from the winter hardship to use the kitchen near the hearth as her common area. Her omen focuses on the dismayed teenager's features. Dismayed and... maybe a trifle embarrassed?

"What was that?"

"I... don't know? It came from you, I think. But..." there is certainly some confusion on the omen's part.

"I don't remember--- Wait... are you still broadcasting over the network? Shut it down, Arte!" There's also a mutter under her breath, "Oh please nobody have seen that!"

[He hopes his love is like this Mitron's. No matter how many lives they live, he'd always search for her and he'd recognise her in each and every one of them.]

Whatever that was. It was sweet. Romantic.

At least he'll remember for you.

And I'm sorry for seeing it. It should have stayed private.

Do you want to talk about it?

[If they had been face to face she might have seen him hesitate, shift awkwardly before finally making the offer. Offering emotional support didn't come naturally to him, he's far too aware of how volatile he can be.

But she looked like she could use a bit of help.]

[So that's a yes in a round about way.]

I've never seen you around before.

Isn't remembering the problem anyway?

I've had a lot of people tell me about my future?

[These things they say he'll do one day and then turn around and insist it wasn't set in stone. How was he supposed to interpret that?]

[Oh, this is something he might be able to do something about. It'll be something to do rather than think about everything going on in his life.]

You don't have to make a decision now, but I might be able to help with that. I don't know if it's something you even want to know or if you'd prefer to leave the past alone, but I know some techniques that could help jog your memories.

[He can see the appeal, focus on now and forget about what she couldn't change. He doesn't think he gets that luxury as what he couldn't change was his own horrid future.]

My master always told me to focus on the present. But it can be hard.

It's nothing special. It's techniques to practice mindfulness so you'd be able to do it by yourself once you've got the basics down. It'll help keep your awareness grounded instead of getting caught in the possibilities.
