Under A Falling Sky; Hopeless, There's Nowhere To Hide [CLOSED]
WHO: Orion and Sakura (closed)
WHERE: Fai's house.
WHEN: Sometime before January 25
WHAT: Orion finally talks to Sakura
WARNINGS: Brief mentions of death, blood, suicidal thought things. Will update as needed.
Orion has... pretty much avoided coming to Fai's house without invitation. If only because... he didn't want to be in that awkward situation where he would have to talk to Sakura. He's still shaky about it, unsure if she's the reincarnation of Lilly or not. And if she is... well... man, he wants to avoid that altogether. If she's Lilly, what else might he remember? How can he make up for what he did in his past life? How does he even say he's sorry for all of it? Would she even remember? Would she forgive him or want revenge? All of those gruesome memories and the neverending reminder of what he's done in that past life to her. And when he saw the Ghost of Lilly back in the fog, she had asked him to shoot her. Which is... morbid on so many levels. Wait, could she be suicidal?
Shit.... then maybe he should talk to her. He has no idea what to do with it. So what do you do with a problem too difficult to resolve? You run away from it like a mature adult. And that's exactly what he's been doing.
Except, today, he kind of needs to visit Fai for a bit. He's been feeling a bit nauseous on his meds lately and he wants to see if there's a reason for it. Maybe they just need to change the dosing. Who knows? Either way, he'd rather do it in person than over the phone. So he drops by, kind of unannounced.
...Come to think of it, he probably should have at least said something. He doesn't know if Fai's going to be home.
Well, here goes nothing, then. Orion rings the doorbell, then stuffs his hands in his pockets while he waits, hopefully, for someone to answer.

no subject
Of course, she's oblivious to any sort of potential connection between the two of them. Noah not having mentioned anything of the sort to her. Let alone her herself remembering him. But then, she doesn't remember Fai and he does her, even if he says he remembers her being a little older. Still, she gives a sheepish wave.]
Um, come in! Were you here to see one of the others?
no subject
And, even at the invitation to come in, he just finds himself frozen.]
Uh... Y-yea. I was.... here to see....
Fai...
[Words. Try to use words.]
You're, uh... Sakura, right?
[Of course she's Sakura. He knows that. He's at least seen her in passing enough times. Even he has to sigh at himself for that.]
no subject
[At least, she seems hospitable enough, either not noticing or not commenting on how he seems to freeze up, how he pales a little at seeing her open the door for him. She gestures for him to come sit down in the lounge while he waits, before asking if he'd like a drink.]
no subject
After another moment, his brain seems to opt to comply, stepping shiftily inside the door.]
Uh... yea. Sure. Okay....
[He makes a glance at his surroundings. Maybe Iwai would be here? Wait, does Iwai live with Fai yet? He's not sure. He can't really say that he's been poking his nose around what goes on with their relationship. For one, it's none of his business. And for two, he's got his own relationship to tend to.
That mostly leaves him with what to do in his current predicament.
He... well. He'd be lying if he told himself he wasn't the slightest bit curious. And it would be honestly better to know than not, right?
Maybe he should ask.
But, at the same time.... he really doesn't want to. He's afraid that the answer might bring his worst fears to life.
A deep breath, alot of hesitation.
Here goes nothing.]
Do you... Are you.... on Retrospec?
[First things first: check if she gets weird things back.]
no subject
[She gives a shrug, raising a hand to rub at the back of her neck as she shuts the door behind him with the other. She offers a drink, before checking her phone to see on messaging Fai. To ask how long he'd be out or at least let him know the other was here to see him about. Something.]
no subject
He takes the drink, giving a nod in thanks. Deep breaths. Baby steps. He's got this.
....He totally doesn't got this.]
Uhm.....
Do you.... remember anything weird?
I dunno... like seeing a guy like me? Or just...
[He side-eyes awkwardly to an opposite corner of the room.
How should he explain this? How do you explain you killed someone without freaking them out? Much less that you think it might have been them you think you killed.]
Maybe anything about a girl named Lilly?
no subject
[She is not sure if that answer seems to help or make things worse somehow. Given how worked up he seems to be in talking to her, asking her about this. Sakura is hesitant and apologetic about it though, biting her lip as she glances to him through her bangs.]
no subject
His breath hitches for a second, and he has to wonder. Maybe she's not Lilly after all. But how can he be sure? He has no idea how to check.]
Uhm.... [He rubs the back of his neck.] Can you... Can you tell me what you remember of your past life. See, I...
Well, I think we might be connected, and.... if we are...
The way I think we are, I.... Well, I've got alot of apologising to do.
no subject
[In a nutshell. More or less. Sakura glances up to him, hesitant and curious, through her light brown bangs, lips pursing a little more when he says about apologizing.]
Is that like what you remember? Why would you need to apologize?
