Heaven's BBS | Video (because spelling is hard when you're six)

From: Nanshe
Date: June 18


[ The video opens to Nanako sprawled on her stomach, kicking her feet in the air behind her but her expression is one of serious thought. Although she looks a little shy and uncertain about leaving a message like this, she also looks pretty determined, too. This... hadn't been something she was sure about asking her big brother, so instead she tries here. Maybe that will be easier? Or people will be less quick to guess why she might be asking... ]

Sooo.... this is heaven, right? And where people go after they die?

If someone died a while ago, can you find them here somewhere?

[ She giggles a bit at that, waving with her free hand. ]

Hello!

[ That cheery countenance quickly shifts, however, sobers as Nanako begins to explain. She didn't remember... that was—

Sad. And hit a little close to home for Lux. Not being able to remember something that should be so simple, so important.

(But if Nanako didn't remember her, then how old could she have been when her mother...)

Her smile turning inwardly warm, Lux shakes her head. ]


It's all right if you don't remember; I'm sure that she would remember you. It might be difficult to find her here with so many people, but I'm sure we will.

What is her name? [ Not was. Don't say was. ] Let's start from there.

[ Honestly? That thought had occurred to her as well, but Lux hardly wanted to dampen the young girl's spirits. She didn't have it in her. ]

Chisato Dojima. Hmm, all right. Give me just a moment! Let's see, something to write with...

[ Did they even have something like that around here? Her god was a bit... cheap tight with money and didn't seem to want to spend on anything unnecessary. But surely she should have something!

Come on, Nanako, let's go for a trip around her room. Which, admittedly, is a bit sparse right now, sadly. But she does manage to find something after a moment, and begins noting things down. ]


Is there anything else that you can tell me about her? If not, that's all right.

[ Lux nods throughout all of this, taking notes. Circling a few things. Really it wasn't too much to go on, but she does her best to keep an encouraging smile on her face.

Her pen taps on the page for a moment in thought. This was going to be like finding a needle in a haystack, especially if the woman didn't remember her daughter. Which was...

She pauses. ]


What is your father like, if you don't mind my asking? Do you have any other family? Any brothers and sisters?

[ Her smile sobers a bit as she sets her pad and pen down. ]

I'm sorry, I don't mean to be personal, I'm just... I'm curious is all. I don't know what it's like to have a family.

[ Nanako, please don't be sad for her, because as far as Lux was concerned, she was lucky. Yes, she died. No, she couldn't remember her former life, which was... an adjustment that she was forcing herself to cope with despite stroll struggling with where she fit in and the thought of losing something important. She hardly ever thought of it now.

So please, if you're going to make that kind of face, let it be for someone who is sad, or struggling with the current state of things. Although it does get the girl a somewhat fond, soft sort of natural smile in return. You really were a good kid, weren't you? ]


Your father sounds wonderful. A police officer...

[ She looked up in thought. She wasn't 100% sure what all that entailed, but from her short ventures into the near shore... ]

Something like that must have kept him busy, then. But that's a very noble cause. He sounds like a good person.

[ Oh, and a brother--no, cousin, sorry. She blinked once in surprise. ]

Your brother is here as well?

[ Sorry Nanako give her a second, that was... interesting. Don't mind her as she grabbed her notebook and scribbled something down. It's not important. ]

What is his name? I might know him.

Lots of bad guys, huh? Then it's a good thing that your father was around.

[ Lix smiled brightly then, trying to make her note-taking as discrete as possible. Most of this was to help aid the younger girl on her mission, but at the same time...

Her cousin was here as well. That seemed odd. Maybe it would be a good idea to learn as much about this girl as possible, to figure out if there was some sort of reason why certain people were being brought here to replace those missing gods. ]


Oh.

[ That surprised her. Wasn't every god supposed to have their own domain, and thus their own space? Or was it because she was so young? Living (relatively) on her own must have been a hardship, after all. ]

You don't have your own temple, Nanako? What about your shinki?

[personal profile] rememberher 2017-03-09 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ...Wasn't that a bit odd? She should have a temple, right?

Ah, but no matter. Her smile smooths over quickly. ]


It's great that you can stay with family and still have your shinki with you. I imagine that makes it easier to be away from home. That must be hard; you're a very brave girl, Nanako.

[personal profile] rememberher 2017-03-14 02:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course!

[ Said like it was the most natural conclusion someone could come to. Chin tipping downward,her eyes closed, the older blond smiles. ]

You may have your cousin here, but I can only imagine how hard it must be to be away from the people you know and love. Being able to be so optimistic despite that, and wanting to help others be happy; I have no doubt in my mind, you're a very strong and brace person.

[personal profile] rememberher 2017-03-15 02:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Ah, had she said too much? Sorry Nanako, she was prone to doing that from time to time. Her expression softening, Lux's smile grows warm. ]

Can I tell you a secret? Brace people can get scared sometimes too. Even me. What makes them brace is that they keep trying, even if they're scared.

[ Oh, that's really sweet. Her smile grows, eyes closed and head tilting to the side. ]

It sounds like your big brother is very smart as well, then. I'm glad that you have someone like that here, to help out when you need it.

[personal profile] rememberher 2017-03-16 02:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She nods enthusiastically, smiling brightly. ]

I definitely will! There is still a lot about this place that I don't know or understand, but having a friend like you to help out makes me feel a lot better. Thank you, Nanako.
