Memory Cave

[voidtreckermods]

After the passengers see a glimpse of a life that is not their own they appear in a cave. It is light, a strange moss glowing on the walls and ceiling illuminates the cave nicely and it is large enough for them to pace around in without trouble.

They are not alone. In the cave with them is another voidtrecker. Maybe someone they know well, maybe someone they have only seen in the aisles of the train. But they are together in this cave together.

The cave has no exit, at least not yet. They know that it will, eventually. When the time is right.

But for that time to come, they first must talk...

(OOC: For reference: memories!)

Yes, that's her. We almost became friends back then, but there wasn't time...there is now.

[ She nodded. ]

Yes, but he didn't see it that way. He thought that all magical girls were from...the devil, I guess that's one way of putting it. Out to tempt and harm innocents.

People are usually afraid of what they don't understand.

[She wrinkled her nose. Madoka was soft and silly but also... She remembered the dream they had shared. Where Madoka had been brave, fighting monsters with a magical bow.

Indeed now she thinks about it... That dream with them on top of the train. It hadn't been a cake room but there had been similarities.]

The devil? [She can agree with that though.] Most people do be being stupid, they do be having small minds.

[magicurls]

[ And she finally laughs a little. ]

It's okay. Whatever happened...everyone has their reasons for who they've become, right? We can't really judge without knowing the full story.

[ She says this last part pointedly, though her smile is still kind. It's okay. ]

[knifewithnoname]

I do be guessing so. [She is not sure she agrees, but she also gets the slight hint. Mami is giving her the benefit of the doubt. She is not being dangerously nosy. It is a gift and not one she is going to squander.]

Do people on the train be judging you? For being a magical girl? [Because she will punch those people. But also...] I do be being good at keeping my mouth shut.

[A gift in return.]

[magicurls]

I've been more open about it...but not everyone knows. A lot of people think it's interesting. I guess their worlds are more open about magic than mine.

[ She smiles. ]

I'll do the same. Don't worry.

[knifewithnoname]

[She nodded, a small smile. She's still worried. She doesn't like that something got into her head and put part of her memories in Mami's head. But it makes her feel a bit better, Mami saw nothing that she would be too mad at and she was willing to keep it quiet.]

Magic do be being important, so I do be thinking it do be being cool that you do be being a magical girl.

[magicurls]

[ Mami just laughs a little. ]

I'm not that cool. I have things I need to work on...to be as strong as I can while I'm still alive here.

But thank you. Let's meet later, whenever we get out of here...I think I have an idea for a coconut treat recipe.

[knifewithnoname]

Anyone who do be knowing coconut treat recipes do be being very cool. [Does she know what coconut is? No. But she knows treat and she understands the offer and that's enough. Enough for her to like Mami, even if she is still wary.

Her head tilted as the light in the cave changed slightly, blinking at the two doors.]

Oh. We can be leaving?

[magicurls]

[ Oh, doors! Mami glanced at them and nodded. ]

...I think so. Be careful out there...and I might bring something by for you later, okay?

[ She smiled one last time as she turned to the door, snapping back. Weird. But she had things to think about, and things to do. ]

[knifewithnoname]

[She nodded, once, looking at the doors.] You do be being careful as well.

[She had known this wouldn't be a relaxing holiday. She moves through the door, a lot running through her mind. Stupid cave.]
