[So I hear Elsa is just chilling in the woods. I have to come up with a reason that Taako would be out here, so, here it is. Stumbling through the trees, making extremely pissed off faces at nature. It isn't like he doesn't know what it is. He's been an adventurer for like, literally more than a century, he is just too famous to deal with it now. Eugh.]
Alright. Cool. Absolutely fucking nothing good out here. Guess I'm gonna go be bored somewhere else.
[from teevee, which, at this point, she assumes is a location. like "elsa from arendelle" kinda thing. she. nods. at the pose?]
Well, because, it's... it's quiet.
["...and I'm still mitigating the shock of three people dying in a row, and if I sit in one place very very still for hours on end, I'm certain people around me will become worried, so I'm doing it out here, instead".]
Uh-- What about it though? I mean, it's a lot of adventures. Like, too many. I'm retired now. Or, I was trying to retire, until I got dragged into this mess.
Just so you know, you totally invited me to ramble about my life, so you can't take it back later. No take backsies!
[He . . . just sits, instead.]
Anyway, can just stay here, it's-- quiet. I guess. Um, okay, story . . . story. Oh, how about the time a boy jumped off a spaceship to impress me, that's a pretty good one!
[well, once kano is finally taken away after an hour, elsa is ready to have a depression nap while everyone else has their lil moments with the soon-to-be-departed—and she's making her way slowly back to the inn.
surprisingly, she looks rather calm—albeit, decidedly aloof. if it wasn't for the pinch in her brow (or the fact that she spent an hour holding kano's arm), it would be hard to discern that she's even bothered at all.]
[He's not good at emotions, even if he's actually faily astute at reading them. It's the empathy part, that requires you to open up and admit that you, too, sometimes feel things? It's rough out here.]
That is-- [Doing that thing where someone is struggling to think of what to say, so they just wag their finger around instead. Hah.] An incredibly difficult question to answer?
Hey, do you think-- Do you think losing your memories, certain memories, can fundamentally change you? Make you into someone who just doesn't act the same. Y'know, instead of just being intrinsically a certain type of person.
I dunno-- [Holding up his hands in a bit of a surrender motion.] Just. Started thinking about it when someone mentioned Sharon had forgotten how to cook. Whether she thought that was important or not.
Woah, jeez, sorry, a little bit high right now, and I either get mad funny or mad philosophical and apparently this is the path I took. You want a hit or anything?

Um. Taako?

Date: 2020-10-05 01:29 am (UTC)[Posing? Posing. God.]
Uh, why are you out here? It's kinda terrible.

...And easier to think.

I did this for years, you know, the whole sleeping outside, streets and stuff. Blech!

Will you tell me about it? It sounds rather interesting to me. The opposite of blech. [hmm] Not sure what sound that would be. Blaow?
no subject
Date: 2020-10-05 02:32 am (UTC)[Love that.]

We can go back, too, if you want. Since. You know. [she waves her hands at all of nature, which taako hates.] The outdoors.

Taako. Lup's brother. How are you?

Date: 2020-10-11 06:19 am (UTC)I don't want to believe any of the people here did it. I... don't.
But I'm not a fool. Someone is hiding their involvement—and they willingly let a child take the fall for them, just to gain back a few memories.
That's all I have.

Date: 2020-10-27 09:31 am (UTC)because elsa is waking up on the bottom bunk, and staring up.]
...Is this... a bunk bed?
[...]
Hellooo. Who's there?
no subject
Date: 2020-10-27 05:38 pm (UTC)Taako pops his head over the side, braid hanging down.]
Oh, I’m top bunk again?
[ . . . ]
This’d be great if I could, uh, actually get down.
no subject
Date: 2020-10-27 10:24 pm (UTC)[she swings her legs over the side of the bed, and looks up.]
Or we could switch. I don't mind being on top.
no subject

And I coulda jumped if four days ago a skeleton man hadn’t stabbed me in the gut.

but incredibly, she does manage to keep a hold on him, still panting, nearly laughing in disbelief.]
You really--you really just went for it, huh?
no subject
Date: 2020-10-28 06:27 pm (UTC)[Just still in her arms, because she’s a magical disney princess.]
And yeah, it’s called, uh, self-confidence! I’m amazing, therefore, you’d definitely try to catch me.
