I wouldn't judge you for your less than pleasant thoughts about him. But if you're not comfortable, then you're not.

From:

forgingfires

I'm not comfortable, no. Not about this.

From:

sangreine

All right.

[ She's kind of waiting for the punchline then? If he doesn't need to talk then surely there's some other point being circled around? ]

From:

forgingfires

We should go on a date when this is all done.

Things just keep happening and we should have one when it calms down.

[And before he has to add yet more Happening by telling her about Haji.]

From:

sangreine

[ shaking her head fondly at her phone ]

In my experience, things are always going to happen.
But I know you probably want to plan something significant and that does take a period of relative calm.

After the new quests go up things are usually calm for a couple of weeks. I suppose I could delay going on some of the longer ones if that's my reward.

From:

forgingfires

I do. Want to plan something significant. We haven't gotten to do anything particularly romantic since there were always things happening.

But I want to. Something to make you feel special, and for fun.

From:

sangreine

I guess it's true that we didn't get much time for that since before I started getting tired all the time. [ When he gave her the bracelet she was too tired to do more than lay in bed, the bite ritual was during a stolen moment at the party she threw, and the few times they sent extended time together between then and now were always about some big deal or another. ]

Just making time for me is special, though. I know you like the big productions so I won't fight it, but don't go thinking you need a month of prep time to see me.

From:

forgingfires

I know, I know. Its just the drama. I had been hoping I could do it after this moon.

Except then this.

But I'm going to romance you properly. A full day just for you, doing things that I hope you'll be enjoying. And if not, I will have learned things for next time.

From:

sangreine

There's always going to be something happening in a place like this, and I know that, so don't worry over it.

I know I'll enjoy everything, since I'll be with you. [ Romantic at heart though she is, Saya has simple tastes about these matters. But he likes bg productions and he did have to scale down his courting gift delivery, so. ]

From:

forgingfires

[Its true. He would have made it a Whole Thing except she was barely staying awake by the time he figured himself out and. Well. Better she had it than not.]

This place can be so exhausting sometimes.

Oh.

Yes.

Well.

That is good to know, but I still hope you like the actual stuff too. Double enjoyment?

From:

sangreine

I have no doubt that I will. You're very considerate of my wants and needs.

From:

forgingfires

[He is blushing so much.]

[A pause.]

[And then he sends a selfie, hand over half of his face, letting her see how much he's blushing.]

[This assault of emotions. But he figures she likes seeing him affected.]

I try.

From:

sangreine

[ giggling now ]

You succeed. And you're adorable.

From:

forgingfires

You're a tease, but far be it for me to deny you being able to see your affect on me.

From:

sangreine

I just tell the truth.

[ At some point he definitely should segue into "btw the monkeys are taking over the room you haven't even slept in yet" because they are absolutely losing the plot here. ]

From:

forgingfires

I said what I said.

Will you be okay?

Meeting Wukong with amnesia?

From:

sangreine

[ She was actually wondering if he'd at all made the connection that it might bother her. She wasn't going to hold it against him if he hadn't, there's a lot going on. ]

Mostly. It's not my first time on the other side of it.

From:

forgingfires

[He absolutely made the connection, he has just been trying to head off ALL THE THINGS.]

It is only going to be temporary. I promise, he is going to get his memories back.

From:

sangreine

I'd be the worst sort of hypocrite to be bothered if he didn't get them back. I've done it before, I'll handle it.
It's not so terrible for me. I do worry about MK, he's not ready.

From:

forgingfires

You're not a hypocrite to want someone back how you knew them.

From:

sangreine

I would be. I don't want my own memories back.

From:

forgingfires

You don't have a lot to regain with your memories. Wukong does. And he doesn't really have much without, at least not without complications.

From:

sangreine

You don't know that and neither do I. Many people would say there's value in remembering the people who loved you beyond the day of their death, which is all I have of my father. I barely have more of Riku.

I'm sparing myself from pain, nothing more. And if any of them show up here then how would they find my choice to leave them mostly forgotten? What about those I don't remember at all?

Please don't make assumptions about what I have to gain or lose.

From:

forgingfires

Sorry, I just meant

Wukong has the people here. Who do remember him.

If any of those people showed up, it would be a different matter. Trying to live your life for people who might hypothetically show up wouldn't be fair to you because who even knows what those odds actually are. So it only makes sense to do what is best for you when it is just you.

From:

sangreine

[ "Wukong has people here"... her mind fills in another piece of that sentence: "and you don't." Little reminders of everything she lost crop up at moments like this, she supposes that's only natural when there's a whole life of loss. She knows that wasn't intended to hurt her though so no sense dwelling on it. ]

Right, I get it.

Well like I said, however I can help.
