84th Draw - Stopping a friend and other things

[First it was Gold and Silver. A little while later, Lymsleia had joined them and now Roy was gone as well.

It's only been a few days since the kidnappings but Selphie can already see the toll that it's taking on Frey. He's barely home these days and she knows that something stinks when he's not eating anything either. Naturally, the perky brunette has taken it upon herself to hunt him down and drag him back to the house for some food and sleep. He's no good to anybody if he's sick and Lym would worry herself sick and end up stuck in bed right beside him.

She finds him eventually near the fountain with his shoulders slumped forward. There's dark circles under his eyes from exhaustion and she can only wonder what he's eaten in his waking hours since his sister was taken. She walks over with a deep worried frown on her face and it's fallen to Selphie to convince him to come home and take care of himself. She's ready to knock him out if she has to but is really hoping that it doesn't come down to that.]


C'mon Frey. That's enough.

[A bit later after Selphie's managed to get Frey home, fed and put to bed, she's decided to finally put that question that's been burning a hole in her head to good use. Ever since that last post from Sir Catherine, she's had more questions than answers than she's ever had during her stay in Luceti. What had she forgotten about from her previous stay in the village? Who had been in the village the longest? She was going to put her information gathering skills to the test this very moment.]

Luceti! This is Selphie and I've got a questions for everybody in the village. I don't really talk about it very often but like a few others who have come back, I've been in the village before. So if you all don't mind, would you mind dropping me a line telling me how long you've been in the village for? I'll have been here for two years myself this coming April.

Call it a Census if you feel like it but I'm curious.

[Ulterior motives are staying hidden for the time being.]

[ooc: action is for Frey! The rest of the post is open to everybody! Yes, even you antisocial grump faces.]

It's alright. You'll have chances to meet still. I'll introduce you, if you'd like.

We'll have to make an opportunity as soon as it's convenient for both of you.

Of course.

Selphie, why were you asking about how long people had been here?

You've been here a long time, and this question is asked frequently. Isn't there something you were thinking of when you asked?

Would you like to talk about it? I'll listen to you if you do.

[Come to think of it, hasn't she always known the Sephie here now?]

So you're worried about what happened during that time?

I sort of understand.

I also returned home, and then came back here.

[But there are differences, differences that would make her hated if she talked about them. She carefully doesn't.]

I suppose you could say so. [This is a very drastic understatement. When she came to Luceti at first, she was deeply steeped in the darkness. When she returned to her world, she made the struggle out of that slavery all over again. She is indeed a very different person from when she arrived.]

It's alright; you didn't say anything wrong.
