Who: Serph and YOU
Where: In the Plaza
When: On the 12th!
Style: [action] preferred, but I'll match!
Status: OPEN
[It's been a long time since Serph's disappearance. Maybe it seemed like he wasn't going to be coming back to Vatheon.
But if you happen to be passing through the Plaza, there's someone appearing out of thin air and... falling into one of the fountains with a great splash. If you're curious enough to look at the water, it's gaining a reddish tinge.
...Yeah, that's blood mixing with the water.
But wait long enough, and there's a guy pulling himself out of the fountain, looking like a drowned rat. There's a break in his abdominal armour. But while there are some stubborn bits of blood at the break's edges, there's no wound in the flesh underneath; the skin is unmarked, like it had been healed perfectly.
Serph's back. And he's alive.
...And totally dripping water all over the Plaza again.]

[She was worried. And she missed him.]
Welcome back. We missed you!
no subject
Thank you.
[A pause, considering.]
Have you been well?
no subject
[Okay, he might not be hurt anymore, but that blood is still bothering her.]
What about you? It looks like you went through a pretty rough time.
no subject
Ah... Yes. In some ways, even in the new world, things hadn't changed from the Junkyard. It's sad. But that hadn't been enough to stop Serph from living his life, right until Heat gutted him. That's his choice, his decision to pay for all the things he's done but cannot remember. And he wouldn't change it for the world.]
We entered a new world, but we still needed to fight.
[And that's about as much explanation Rinoa's going to get without further prying.]
no subject
[She rather hopes not. If Nirvana is supposed to be the ultimate destination of these guys, it shouldn't be a place where they'd have to keep fighting.]
no subject
It isn't the Nirvana we seek.
[The question of whether it exists or not is something he thinks about, in the brief moments they had to themselves.]
no subject
[And they all had been so looking forward to getting there, too. She shakes her head in disbelief, heartbroken for them.]
What are you guys going to do now?
no subject
We'll keep searching from here.
[It's the only response he can give, really.]
no subject
[There are many worlds out there, after all. This place has taught her that much. Perhaps such a world existed that was Nirvana.]
no subject
no subject
[He's always been the quieter sort, but something seems off to her.]
no subject
I'm fine.
[And to divert Rinoa's attention...]
What's a masquerade?
no subject
It's a kind of formal party. Everyone dresses up and wear masks. It was a lot of fun! There was food and dancing.
no subject
Well, it's a shame he missed the party. At least it sounds like Rinoa enjoyed herself. Serph considers her words, tilting his head.]
What makes a party formal?
[Although Rinoa had said 'formal' party, it sounds a lot like all the other parties Serph's been do during his stay in Vatheon.]
no subject
You usually get dressed up in really nice, elegant clothes for formal parties. And they're a bit more... refined? I mean, at a regular party, you can go a little wild and loud and most people don't mind. Formal parties, though, they're a bit more regulated. They almost have their own protocol.
no subject
Well, in a way, he's glad he didn't miss much else, either. It's good to be back.]
I'll be returning to the base.
[See what's changed. Say hello to everyone...]
Would you like to come?
no subject
[She sounds so thrilled about it. Unfortunately her fridge and cabinets are completely bare...]
no subject
Let's shop, first.
[It'll be more efficient... and give him time to think over what to tell the others.
ooc: If Rinoa agrees, mind if we end the thread there?]
no subject
((ooc: yeah, let's <3))
