Grand Opening Mingle Log

[faredthere]

You've just moved to Farethere City!

Why? Well, you don't seem to want to dwell on it too hard. You certainly remember who you are and where you're from - it's not as though you have amnesia or anything like that, of course not. You just don't really want to think about the events immediately leading up to your moving here for some reason.

That's not important anyway. What matters is that you've just moved in to a new town! It seems like there are a lot of other people besides you moving in today, too. There's a giant 'Welcome to Farethere City' banner hung up between two trees, and there's all kinds of food and drink on tables underneath, including plenty you've probably never seen before.

Now's a good chance to meet your neighbors and get yourself situated. Wander around town a little - check out the library, or figure out what on earth those mushroom-shaped doors at the far end of town are for. Or just pig out on the food - you did just unpack all your stuff today, no one will blame you for taking the chance to relax.

(Don't think too hard about the unboxing process. Or why there might be some things in your house that you don't remember buying.)

Your mayor is floating about greeting people. You'll properly get to meet him at some point, so be sure to ask him all the questions you have about your new home.

[Oh how she knows that ache.]

Forgive me if it is a bit impertinent... but it seems that it is something that is a part of you; why must you stop what you love? ...Was not Beethoven deaf? It... it just seems like there must be something more to it, if what we were discussing earlier is anything to go by.

[sacrifeyes]

[Oh.]

Comparing me to Beethoven is a little...

[He ends up laughing gently and brushing that floppy hair back from his face, surprised and touched in spite of himself.]

I'm not sure how I'd take pictures with what little sight I have left, but... Thank you, Grainne, for the encouragement.

[impossibilities]

Oh... I'm hardly someone who should be encouraging anyone. It is really more... more like... [She shrugs brushes her hair back, nervously.]

People are not remembered for their talents so much as for the hardships and challenges they had to face to become the person they did. Maybe it only takes listening with your heart, or to it.

[Despite her words, it doesn't really sound like confidence as she says them, rather hard lessons and experience.]

All I am saying is that you should not give up what you love too easily.

[sacrifeyes]

[A strange, withdrawn look passes briefly over Eun's face. He pauses, closes those blind eyes, then shakes his head and returns to smiling gently.]

Whether or not you meant to, it... still means something to me, that you would say that. You're right, of course.

[He turns his face slightly.]

Love sometimes has a way of not letting go, even when you do. Maybe a solution will come to me the longer I'm here.

[impossibilities]

[Eun devestated Grainne just with that one sentence.]

Ah... y-... yes. I sincerely hope you find that solution.
