sacredchants | ⛪ shiro catch-all

Oh.

[ she'll give a look over to what he was doing and looking back to him. ]

Here to try out the food?

[ she can only guess!! ]

Nah, I already know what this stuff tastes like. I'm just looking for the ice cream ones, those ones are good.

[He is totally passing up the dried food, though. He is here for one thing, and that is ice cream.]

[ shiro is valid but also— ]

They're a bit weird for me.

[ laughs at the duality of the threads that are being done right now. but, izumo will take her time in consideration about what she wants to say next. rather, there is something that comes to her that she wants to bring up and... hmm. ]

...you knew me from somewhere, right?

I've never met you personally before now, no. But you go to that school, don't you? So odds are, we would've come across each other eventually. It's just that the school year hasn't quite started yet, so we haven't had the chance. At least not from my perspective.

[ hmmm. you know? sometimes it's best to be happy with what you have instead of asking for more... ]

And what was the name of that school?

...True Cross Academy? You're going there to be a Tamer, yeah?

[OH NO DID SHE LOSE A MEMORY?]

True Cross Academy?

[ she's going to frown about it because wow. nothing. nothing about that sounds remotely familiar to her however she knows that he knew her of. could have known her. (she knew him, right?) ]

I...remember something about Tamer. It's on my profile.

Do you remember what being a Tamer means?

[He sounds concerned, but he's also talking with an even voice. Time to work out what Izumo knows, so he can fill in the blanks.]

[ they can both be concerned as she frowns harder and her eyebrows furrow together. she knew this. she had to! ]

It's where you can control demons. I'm able to summon demons—my familiars—to do what I need them to do.

[ but why did she summon demons?? what for??? ]

[He nods along with her explanation. She's got that much, at least.]

Do you remember why you do that?

I'm... Exorcism, isn't it?

[ why does that sound weird? it's really weird. she remembers, mostly, that she's an exorcist but not the school? any time her mind drifts back there's just nothing there. ]

An exorcist in training, yes.

Is it that you can't remember anything at all, or that there's gaps in there?

[ okay. that's good. ]

I don't think there are gaps, but I can't remember that school at all and the things that relate it to are fuzzy.

Those six, the ones running things here, they did say we would lose memories. Your time at the school must be the memory you've lost.

I only wish I could tell you more about your time there, to remind you. We might need Shima for that.

[ she'll just nod. again, much like any previous time, she'll tense up at the idea of talking to shima. ]

It'll be fine. I don't need to worry about them.

[ and this much is very true: ]

As long as I have certain ones I'll be fine.

But we're not in control of what we're losing.

[He hasn't even figured out what he has lost yet.]

How long are you going to be okay for?

[ well, she only realized one of her's so it's...fair. ]

I know, it's why I've been writing down the memories that are most important to me. If I ever lose any of those, I'll have some reference for it.

Did your notes tell you about the school? Is that why you came to ask me?

[ she'll give a shake of her head. ]

They didn't, but I have notes about everyone here that I've met so far. And your name is marked as someone who is from the same place as me.

That would be the academy, yeah.

...write detailed notes on what you remember. There's no telling what else you will forget before this is over.

[She's already doing it, but it bears reiterating.]
