[ At first Mao's worried this guy's getting worse with the way his face changes but as soon as Ritsu grabs his hand he realizes what's happening. He's not sure why it's happening to both of them, though.

"Maa-kun, you're unexpectedly suited to taking care of people, I think. On top of the heavy labor, there's all the interpersonal stress." The air is oppressively warm, maybe even warmer than it is right now, and it's the guy whose hand he's holding that's talking to him.

"You like that kind of thing, don't you... But in the end, Maa-kun shines the brightest when you're being an idol. Being a nurse suits you the next most, after that."

And Mao answers, fondly even if he's exasperated, "Yeah, I've gotten those skills from taking care of you. Nursing, huh? That's a possible job, too. But for now, I want to stay an idol.

But if I'd failed to make it as an idol, I wonder what kind of life I'd be living now?"


Even though it wasn't in the exchange he heard, there's a name in his mind now and it can only belong to the face in front of him when he shakes his head and returns to the beach he's standing on. ]


Ricchan?

For a long time. Since we were little, I think. We lived near each other.

[ Mao can't picture the house or the neighborhood, nothing else associated with the memory, but he knows what he's saying is true even though until today he's never seen Ritsu before.

He also can't make sense of the rest of what Ritsu's saying. The second part makes him shake his head. ]


I don't know what you're talking about. I'm not a trickster and I don't like to fight. I was on the student council.

[ Even if it doesn't make sense, though, he still doesn't let go of Ritsu's hand. He even tugs a little. ]

C'mon, let's get you out of the sun.

Maakun sounds familiar, Maakun is definitely me. [ Which isn't something he ever imagined saying; his family is much more American than Japanese and he's never really had a nickname since his own name is already so short. ]

I don't know about Trickstar... it sounds like an idol group, though. Was it the one you were in?

[ He sees the way Ritsu smiling and wow, that feels familiar too. Something in him feels reluctant, like this is a road he shouldn't go down, but mostly it feels like putting on an old jacket or hearing an old favorite song. ]

I'll help you out right now but don't get used to it. Are you able to walk to the boardwalk?

[ It's weird for this guy to sound so much more confident about that than Mao himself is. It's his name, he should know? ]

I'm sure it'll make sense eventually, you can't force these things.

[ At least he doesn't think you can. He likes his life, so he hasn't really tried.

Mao shakes his head but he can't just leave Ritsu out here to cook, especially not knowing what they know now. ]


Are you gonna try or do you just want me to carry you or something?

[ This is not a serious suggestion but as soon as Mao says it, he can tell it was the wrong thing to suggest. He's going to end up carrying this guy, isn't he? ]
chuusai: (another scar may bless you)

[personal profile] chuusai 2017-08-17 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
Probably but who knows what else there might be to remember? It could be horrible, stuff you don't want to know. Have you remembered anything else about yourself?

[ And there it is. Mao takes a second to gather up his castle building toys and the bucket he had them in, then takes Ritsu's hand to help him up before turning around. How does this happen? Giving Anya piggyback rides makes sense but even if his memory is telling him how he and this guy know each other, it still feels weird. It beats the alternative, though. ]

Hey... not really, I just get freaked out about these memories. I like my life, I don't want another one.

[ Maybe if it was a carbon copy of this one except his dad hadn't died and he had a couple more friends, but in general Mao's not unhappy. He sighs a little when Ritsu climbs on. This isn't normally a thing he'd offer another guy but he did tell Anya he wanted more hugs and this is kind of like a hug, right?

As far as the quality of it, the jury is out. ]


I guess? We're not going very far and this is faster than you walking by yourself.

[ And off they go, Mao placing his feet carefully to avoid dumping them both in the sand. ]

[personal profile] chuusai 2017-08-24 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
Sort of. I want to know why so many people who went to the same school are here and how we keep running into each other. Recolle's not small enough that that should keep happening.

[ Sure, another friend is great, but nothing else about his 'other' life seems to have been the same. What else could be different? He doesn't really want to think about it. ]

You should remember this, though, and take better care of yourself! Not everybody's going to be willing to just pick you up, you know.

Maybe but do you think it's supposed to happen or not supposed to happen?

[ Mao's not sure which he prefers. They're at the stairs, so he stops and takes a deep breath to brace himself before starting up. ]

Yeah but you think I'm always going to be there to do it? We just met!

[ Kind of. In this life. ]
chuusai: (another scar may bless you)

[personal profile] chuusai 2017-08-26 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno. Memories from some other version of us creeping into our memories now seems like a break in a system somewhere than something planned. Otherwise why keep it away from us at all?

[ That was a lot to say while also climbing stairs so he takes a minute and looks for somewhere to sit in the shade before replying to the rest. ]

You might hate me when you get to know me. Plan better.

You think? It's our memories we're talking about it, thinking about it a lot seems like a good thing to do.

[ Shade first, Ritsu! Priorities!! It does happen that there's a table with an umbrella near a food stand, though, so Mao aims for it. It feels faster to just keep going than to get Ritsu down and make him walk. ]

Why wouldn't you? All you know about me is I helped build a sand castle and kept you from getting sunstroke.

[personal profile] chuusai 2017-08-26 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
But I'm the same age I was in that memory, I think, or close to it. How could I forget a whole part of my life like that if it's really my life?

[ He stops by the table and does roll his shoulders a little. Ride's over. ]

Not should, it's not like I want you to. Just saying you might.

[personal profile] chuusai 2017-08-26 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
Or they could be making all this up to confuse us. It doesn't make sense either way.

[ Mao stretches a little too, that's his workout for the day... which means he can probably have whatever he wants up here. ]

I'm not! You're just not listening. I'm gonna go get us water, you want anything else?
