[the recording turns on mid-sentence, hi luceti] ...Is this book for me? How kind, though I’d rather have a proper explanation as to what has occurred. [a sigh] Once again it seems I have lost track of my surroundings. Even after I promised to be on my best behavior.

[rustling as she straightens out her cotton dress]

If I recall, Hakuren taught me the geography of the empire a few weeks ago. [considering noise] Perhaps I am in the sixth district? I have always wanted to visit. If that is the case, then I will have to call on the House of Hausen for help, unless...unless the one who has brought me here appears. [dilemmmaaa] He will have to appear sometime if he wishes to keep me as a hostage. Though I may not be as valuable as he might think.

[they should have kidnapped general oak or something. a long pause and then, quietly]

I wonder if anyone here will know about the hawkzile race. I do wish to know how Teito fared...

[EDIT OOC: off to class!! will be back in two hours ;A;]

When did I...

Almost two years ago, but I know what you're talking about. Time doesn't really make sense here.

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

It's been that long for you? [brb, brain is computing]

[pathtoseele.livejournal.com]

On and off. I've been back and forth twice.

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

...I'm - sorry to hear that. [so confused! but she is genuinely concerned for him]

[pathtoseele.livejournal.com]

Why?

[ why be sorry? Teito doesn't really mind. not exactly, anyway. both places have their pluses. ]

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

Are you not bothered that you are here?

[pathtoseele.livejournal.com]

It doesn't matter, does it? When I go back, I'll go back. Might as well enjoy what I can here, since going back is pretty much guaranteed.

2/2

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

[as expected of Teito...even now, in this situation, he's straightforward and honest and making the best of a situation that Ouka's failed to find hope in.]

[she smiles to herself] I'm glad to hear that you do enjoy this place.

[pathtoseele.livejournal.com]

Well, I mean... Things do happen here. Drafts and stuff. But all in all it's pretty good.

[ mostly because oh hey. Mikage is alive so to speak. ]

I have your earring, if you want that back.

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

[drafts?! but the second part distracts her] It was a gift to you Teito. I couldn't possibly take it back.

[pathtoseele.livejournal.com]

[ well yeah. really the first gift he's ever really gotten. well, that's not quite true. not according to the entirety of his recovered memories, but this one still has meaning. ]

Temporarily. When I go back, it would probably go with me, but as long as I'm here then why not?

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

...It's alright. I would much rather you kept it. It'll help keep you safe. [though not against the malnosso or all the crazy things here, but!]

[pathtoseele.livejournal.com]

Well, if you say so.

[ he's not going to say no, of course. it had been just a thought. ]

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

[it makes her wish she had the doll he made her with her now] How have you been Teito? It's been a while since we last spoke...

[pathtoseele.livejournal.com]

Well you mentioned the race, so at least you know that. But...

I've found what I was looking for.

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

You have? [8D8D] That's wonderful. Does that mean you've completed your journey?
