Who: Izumo and Open
When: Early August
Where: Far Shore, possibly Near Shore.
What: Post-Ablution stuff. Coping with missing friends and returned memories. Izumo doesn't appreciate haunting season.
Warning: N/A


A. Cnoc Áine - After Shizuo’s Ablution

[After performing the ablution on Shizuo with Chikusa and Goten, Izumo has decided to stick around Yona’s temple to keep an eye on the two. Normally he wouldn’t be around the temple so much, only ever coming and go briefly to visit Shizuo or Yona. He usually sticks to the room that ended up being his, but he’s actually out and about in the temple now.

If he looks a little tired, just pretend that he isn’t instead.

However, anyone around the temple might spot him in the halls or somewhere outside. Come and talk to him? Drink with him?]

B. Double Cross Bar - Memories On A Wall

[The moment he’s learned that Sora and Roxas are gone, Izumo felt a bit—not sad, per se, but something close to it. While he wouldn’t exactly call himself sentimental, he’s decided that putting up a photo wall can be at least one way of keeping memories alive.

So, after a day or two, he puts up a post on the BBS:]

If anyone has any photos of Sora and Roxas, mind if I have a copy? I’m working on a project right now, so I thought it’d be good to start with those two first.

[Anyone who does come to the bar will find Izumo leaning against the counter, focused on a blank wall to the side. He seems thoughtful, though he does glance over at anyone who comes in.]

C. When Will Dreams End? [Closed to Totsuka]

[He sent a text to Totsuka earlier that morning upon awakening. It’s not like how he reacted when he first remembered Anna, but now some things the man has said the few times they’ve met makes sense.

Choosing his bar instead of Mikoto’s temple or Totsuka’s temple was a good place to talk. With it still closed, it gives them the proper privacy they need.

Really, Izumo didn’t enjoy waking up suddenly remembering people from his past life, but it’s even worse now because this time, he’s aware of one fact about the god: he’s dead.

By the time Totsuka comes to the bar, Izumo already has a drink in front of him.]

D. Fade to Black

[It’s August.

It’s summer and it’s haunting season.

So, it’s not surprising that Izumo is being haunted by some ghosts that decides to play with him. Which is why he’s looking fairly unimpressed at a floating lighter, the sounds of childish giggles heard around him.]

[toremainbehind]

Yup. There are things like these disposable cameras that use actual film.

[redstray]

Huh, I didn't know that. What do they do with the film?

[ Feel old Izumo? ]

[toremainbehind]

They develop it into pictures.

[So old.

He shrugs.] It was a handy thing to have when people didn't want their personal cameras to get damaged.

[redstray]

It's easier with digital though, right?

[toremainbehind]

Much easier.

[redstray]

Huh... Taking photos is hard enough without worrying about film

[toremainbehind]

[Stop making him feel old.]

Just imagine how hard it was before digital cameras really became a thing.

[redstray]

[ Never. ]

Rather not. Don't have to worry about it.

[toremainbehind]

[He chuckles.]

Well, let's focus on finding one then. We don't need to get an expensive camera, anyway.

[redstray]

Alright. As long as it takes decent pictures.

[toremainbehind]

[A nod.]

Hm, what's your favorite color, Eric?

[redstray]

...Huh?

[That's not random at all]

[toremainbehind]

Your favorite color.

[He looks very nonchalant about the random question.]

[redstray]

Uhm...I don't know...

[ What is he...five? ]

Red? Blues okay too...

[toremainbehind]

Alright.

[Aaaand leading him into a store that specializes in cameras.

Sorry, is he being vague?]

[redstray]

Uhm...

[ Yes...yes he is. Eric follows along, going a but sparkely eyed. It was kind of exciting, shopping for cameras with someone. It seemed silly to think it but he didn't care. ]

[toremainbehind]

[He holds back a chuckle.]

Is there anything that catches your eye?

[redstray]

Ah.

[ He starts a bit before he puts his hood up on his head. ]

Not really...

[toremainbehind]

Are you sure?

[He smiles.]

It's okay to say so, you know.

[redstray]

[ He pauses for a bit, looking iver sone of the cameras. Befiee he points to a couple of them. ]

These ones...seem like they're good. Not too expensive but have good settings..maybe one of them you would like?

[toremainbehind]

[Izumo smiles a bit as he follows where Eric's pointing.]

Hm, they do seem to be really good.

[He looks at a few of them closely, curious.]

Is there any that you particularly like?

[redstray]

[ Why are you making him pick something? After some debate, he picks one out ]

Maybe...this one?

[ Do you want to get this one Izumo for yourself? It seems a decent one enough ]

[toremainbehind]

[He wants to know what Eric's taste is.

But Izumo looks it over, giving a nod.]

Good choice, Eric.

[redstray]

Ah, you'll get this one then?

[toremainbehind]

I will, but maybe another one can be good, too.

Just in case.
