So when I was alive I was a bird.

[ When she was alive.... that meant, she had died... A shinki. ]

Did you regain your memories?

[readerofthestars]

Only one.

I've never heard of this happening before.

[moonlitknight]

[ Neither had he.... But one was more than Zero ever imagined. He'd thought his memories had been forfeit the moment he died but this... it was hope in it's most truest sense. ]

One is more than anyone has gotten.

[ Moments later: ]

... Was it clear?

[readerofthestars]

Yes. There were many things I didn't understand.

But it was clear.

[moonlitknight]

About the memory?

[ With no other memories to fill in the blanks, the context would have been.... confusing. ]

[readerofthestars]

As I said. I am a bird.

[moonlitknight]

[ His brows crease. ]

What kind of bird?

[readerofthestars]

I wasn't paying attention to species. I was a bird.

[moonlitknight]

[ With no context it might be hard to gauge the significance of the memory.... ]

How long have you been here?

[ This, at least, would give him a starting point. ]

[readerofthestars]

Around a month, now. Maybe a little longer.

[moonlitknight]

[ A month... was that how long he'd have to wait to regain even a single memory? ]

Thank you.

[ A sincere sentiment. ]

For the information.

[ This is more than he's gotten since he's been here. ]

[readerofthestars]

I know people who have been here longer.

[moonlitknight]

[ .... ]

Have they regained memories like you?

[readerofthestars]

I don't know. They never told me.

[moonlitknight]

[ Then, he was like him... aside from the memory he'd regained, he knew little of the circumstances behind their lost memories. He wouldn't push for more answers, instead - ]

You said you were bird. Were you flying in your memory?

[readerofthestars]

No, but I was surrounded by birds, and when I looked at my hands, there were wings and feathers instead, and that seemed normal.

[moonlitknight]

[ Normal... what kind of place did he come from where something like that would be normal... But then... it did lead him to a thought - ]

I heard the Shinki in this place can transform.

[ Into weapons mostly, but he leaves that out. Since he's a shinki he already knows that much. ]

What do you transform into?

[readerofthestars]

I don't know, yet, honestly.

I haven't had much luck with gods.

[moonlitknight]

[ He understands. He hasn't met his own god yet either and he doesn't plan too anytime soon. But there is one thing that sticks out - With gods? As in multiple. ]

Gods? Have you had more than one?

[readerofthestars]

I've had three.

[moonlitknight]

[ .........

It'll take him a moment to type out a reply to that. ]

What happened?

[readerofthestars]

I was reassigned. Then my second vanished. My first eventually disappeared, as well.

[moonlitknight]

Shinki's can be reassigned?

[ He hadn't known that. ]

[readerofthestars]

Apparently so.

So I am now with Mister Joshua.

[moonlitknight]

[ He hasn't met that god, but Zero's current opinion of most gods is pretty low. ]

And he treats you well?

[ Because after everything he's witnessed, he needs to ask. ]
