[Open] What if we rewrite the stars?

Who: Lavi and You!
When: October 4 - 8 (IC)
Where: Far Shore (mostly). Near Shore.
What: Aftermath of Add things as Lavi checks on his friends, reading and sign language class, and Lavi remembers a demon child from his world.


[A. Lessons for Reading and Signs]

[After finally managing to procure a good place for lessons - he may or may not have snagged a classroom at Hakkai’s school at some point - it was finally time for lessons!]

I. Reading

[For those who wanted assistance in reading, Lavi does have some books piled up on a desktop and he’s looking through a few himself. While some people had shown more interest in sign language, there were still enough people who seemed eager to read as well. The books were all beginner’s level, but there was another pile of books meant for the intermediate level.

He could have just finished helping someone out or waiting for someone to join him.

Either way, Lavi will look up when he hears someone coming in.]


II. Languages

[Languages, languages!

Even if it’s mostly sign languages, in which Lavi had been considerate enough to even make proper notes for the signs and even the alphabet out, all drawn out on the board for people to see.

On the other hand, given Yoon’s own interest in Braille, he has a couple of books for that as well. Digging into the Heaven’s library is taxing, so he took a brief trip to the Near Shore to gather the necessary ones.

He’s even reading something in Braille as he waits for someone to join him.]


[B. The Ghosts Hide in Shadows]

[It’s late into the evenings, but for once, it’s not because Lavi is trying to avoid sleep.

That’s a subject for another time.

Rather, he’s been going around certain temples, such as Nekhbet and Apollo’s temples, mostly to check in on them after whatever happened with Add. Otherwise, he can be seen walking around the Heavens, tracing odd patterns in the air with a finger while having a calculating look on his face.

It’s easy to surprise him like this, but don’t be surprised if he greets you with a hammer to the face.

He’s a little jumpy lately and he’s not afraid to use that hammer of his if he feels the least bit threatened. Unless he recognizes you and then the person is greeted with a smile.]


Evening!

[C. Dreams Become Nightmares]

[He remembers.

It was worse than the other memories he had remembered before, enough to make him remember why exactly he hated sleeping or dreaming in particular. Why he hated it when his dreams were being intruded on, showcasing a part of himself he didn’t even know existed, but it lingered.

Lavi decided: he hates memories.

The echoes of that girl’s laughs haunts him, enough where he’s taken to sneaking out of Cardia’s temple late at night and has taken to hide somewhere or until he finally does feel enough exhaustion to pass out. At this rate, it’s not surprising to see him in the library or at a park or even near a temple he’s visited before. However, he’d usually leave before someone spots him, never really staying at one place and it’s easy enough to see something has made him frightened.

He mumbles to himself, sounding upset and tugs his headband off his head, holding it tightly in his hand while he runs his other hand through his hair.]

Damn Road.


[D. A Walk in Fantasyland - Closed to Ayumu]

[He did promise her a date - or not date. Whatever it’s called.

Since Lavi has grown more familiar with the Near Shore, he opted to take Ayumu around Tokyo first. It’s easy and a little more familiar to him than most places.

So, he waits for her after giving her the time and location, knowing that while he should have gone to pick her up, Lavi actually doesn’t know if she’s still staying with Hakkai or is bunking up somewhere else. Either way, it’s going to be a day for them to hang out and not worry about things like that.]

[ The look that Lavi's getting, with talking about these other languages, is the same kind of confused look people can get when they're told about how weird duck penises are, or that some creatures have two. It's bizarre. ]

... Never heard of those before. Isn't there just the common one we're all using?

[ ... Okay, to be fair, with the way Heaven worked so they all spoke and read the same unless done intentionally otherwise, there was no reason to think that there were other languages if the concept was foreign to you. Not that Judar even knows what language he was using. ]

That's weird.

[ Multiple languages is weird, Lavi. Not in a way that he wants to figure out, either. ]

It's been going between new ones and filling out older ones. Which is a pain in the ass when I've gotta flip through everything to find it again. Coffee's been helping to have the time to get it out.

[ Yes, someone introduced him to caffeine. His first week in the Far Shore was the best rested he's ever been and will ever be again. ]

Someone said it has this caffeine stuff that lets you stay awake more.

[ So of course he's been drinking coffee. ]

I've been getting limited on how much I get though.

[ He still doesn't know how to use the machines, so it's been easy to control this. ]

In a way it counts as both, doesn't it?

[ Because he doesn't know how to use it all, it's easy for someone to hold back on his caffeine consumption. Which is probably for the best, as this is someone who doesn't know or care to limit himself. ]

There's too much shit I'm not familiar with around here.
