[Kohaku has been quiet for a while. She's been in the forest most of the time, to find new things, and animals, but most notably can currently be seen from her journal. Placed at just the right distance away from a new and very pretty tree she found. (Though with a few less colors.) But the silence is broken soon by her laughing. This is something very new to her, even if other people can't hear it, it looks so new.

And the amazement is quite clear in her voice.

I've seen so many plants before, but this is the first one that I've ever found to have more than one personality!

...I have no idea how I'm supposed to talk to it though...Talking to more than one plant at a time is already confusing enough...


[Then much later in the day-]


Uhm...I've been avoiding asking this for a long time, but...is there anyone that would be willing to teach me how to swim? I've never been in a lot of water, but I always hear that it's a lot of fun...

And it seems a little strange to be so old and have never tried it before...though I haven't tried a lot of things.

Maybe it might be a good idea to make a list of things I should try some day...
 
...

...That would be a really long list...

[Firo wants to be happy for them, really. But his natural cynicism prompts him to scoff.]

The same guy who screwed things up for you in the first place?

[He frowns, stuck for a response. It occurs to him that perhaps her god is like his boss; he'd probably say these exact same things she is if it were the Don doing them.]

Huh. So they didn't want you to hafta see all that...

What did you want?

[personal profile] foundafamily 2014-09-28 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. I can understand that. You kinda owe it to a friend, don'cha?

[His friends have never abandoned him, even when the end seemed pretty close. He can't imagine turning his back on them.]

[He laughs.]

Well, I'm glad to hear it. Not a lotta people can say that.

[personal profile] foundafamily 2014-09-28 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
Me?

[Yes, you. The only other person in this conversation.]

Uh, well, I don't know any angels or anything. And I've definitely never slept as long as you have... but I do know some people who might be almost as old.

...Oh.

[He doesn't think to much about how he wound up being the way he is, except on the occasions when he bemoans his terrible decisions and mistakes.

He's afraid that the only interesting story about him would be about the elixir, and even then that story belongs to so many other people too. But just as he's about to try and wiggle out of this, he actually gets an idea. It's not something he shares with too many people, but he's in a sentimental mood.

I guess that'd mean somethin' to do with my Family. I could tell you how I met 'em.

[personal profile] foundafamily 2014-09-28 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
Nah, I didn't meet 'em until... I guess it woulda' been over ten years ago by now.

[Firo's use of the term is pretty confusing. It doesn't help that his camorra Family is also his "family".]

I mean, I had parents before that, but these guys are family.

[personal profile] foundafamily 2014-09-29 02:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, most a' the time.

[Szilard was Ennis's "parent", in a way, but he sure as hell wasn't family.]

But family's not just people you're related to. I couldn't have been born with a better family than what I have now.

[The Martillos, Ennis, Czes, the Gandor brothers... and some people that he's met in Luceti, too. He's gone from being an orphan only child to a tiny cog in a big family and he couldn't be happier.]

[personal profile] foundafamily 2014-09-30 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
Really?

[Man. Much of his childhood he spent longing for that little place where he could belong.]

Maybe that's kinda like it... But family's a whole lot more than just bein' close. You'd do anything for each other.

[There's a pause. Darn you nice people and your tendencies to ruin all of Firo's points.]

...Ain't we special.

[He's just a little bitter, really! When he was younger, he couldn't have imagined a complete stranger helping anyone. And he's still skeptical.]

Most people wouldn't--maybe they'd go outta their way to screw you over, but not to help.

My Family woulda' been within their rights to kill me, but they didn't.

No, it's not. And your world probably isn't as nice as you think it is either.

[He doesn't know if he should fight her on her comment about killing. While he would have hated to be dumped in the river as a child, there are people he wouldn't hesitate to kill now.

Just as he's considering his retort, her next statement hits him. He wants to argue, but he's marveled over the same kindness so many times himself.
]

...It's better than most places, I guess. There are some really good people here.

[And some who've come and left. He tries not to dwell on that, but it's hard when the memories are so fresh.]
