FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE, MY FELLOW LUCETIANS

Who: EVERYONE
What: TRAUMA!
When: ALL THE TIME
Where: ANYWHERE
Summary: HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE TRAUMA. FREE FOR ALL IN THE SCARRING EXPERIENCES DEPARTMENT.
Rating: Gosh. I'm not sure. However, I suggest you hide your little'uns.

Basically, the purpose of this log is TRAUMA SPAM. If you didn't want to spam your flist with extra posts, or you wanted to post with more than one character -- or more than one character more than once! -- here is your place to be.

This will be a commentspam style log where you can thread start with your character hallucinating things. Whatever you wish it to be! It can even just be a more general thread start where they're not hallucinating anything -- yet. And each thread can get treated like a post, where that character's CR can react to the trauma going down!

If you still wish to actually post in your character's journal, you're of course totally allowed to do so. This is just here for funtiems and convenience for everyone who wanted a greater chance to post during this event! Feel free to use it anytime over the next few days, through Halloween, to do "posts" and threads with your characters.

Have at, guys!

[Terra barely has time to process that, but she's not complaining at all. The sooner they get away from the mist and inside, the better. At least, that's her hope.

There's no hesitation as she throws open the door to her place, slamming it shut once they're inside. Leaning against the wall, Terra takes a moment to catch her breath...and try to stop trembling in the process.]

[Frederic is right beside Terra as he too is trying to catch his breath and stop his trembling. His eyes turn to Terra and he attempts to smile for her.]

Thank you for helping me, Terra. I hope I was able to help you in return as well.

[Terra would try to smile back, but she's busy biting her lip so that it doesn't tremble. She's still a bit pale, but some color begins to return.]

Y-yes, you did. If you weren't there...I might have been too frightened to leave on my own. Thank you, Frederic.

[Now she's able to manage a smile, as she reaches out to give his hand a grateful squeeze.]

[Frederic holds Terra's hand gently and gives it a small squeeze in return, but not too hard. Seeing her smile, it brought his heart a bit of happiness.]

If you're still a little frightened, I will gladly stay by your side.

[His hand now begins caressing hers, but he notices that and blushes faintly.]

[Terra notices it, too; she glances down, surprised, but doesn't withdraw her hand.]

I would like that. Thank you.

[And she guides them over to the sofa, because that seems a more comfortable spot than leaning against the wall.]

Um...about what you heard....

[She bites her lip again, a little nervous at the thought of explaining Kefka's words.]

[Frederic continues holding Terra's hand, still blushing a little but he tries to look serious.]

I'm sorry I didn't quite understand what that man Kefka was saying. Was he talking about events back in your world?

[She nods, averting her gaze.]

...yes. What Kefka said really happened. He was a high-ranking official in the military of my world's empire. They were searching for ways to combine magic and technology, so they could spread their powers throughout the world. Magitek....

[More lip-gnawing. Her voice grows quieter.]

I was part of the military, too, though not by choice. They raised me for most of my life, because...well, because I could use magic. It's not something that people can naturally do, in my world. So, I was given over to Kefka and at some point, he made that device to control me. I-I don't remember that part well....

[He listens intently to her words and then frowns when she finishes.]

Combining magic and technology... Can such a thing even be possible? And I'm sorry for all of the pains you've been through, Terra. This Kefka sounds like a deranged monster who only enjoys making others suffer.

[Terra nods readily enough to that sentiment.]

That's very apt. That device was so strong that when it was removed...I didn't remember anything about myself for a while. Even now, there's a lot missing, but part of me wonders if it isn't better that way.

[Deep breath.]

He was here...but he thankfully disappeared a handful of months ago. I try to forget, but this week hasn't made it easy.

[The expressions on his face are very serious and both of his hands are now holding onto hers.]

Perhaps I could help you to forget about that man? If you wish for my help that is.

[Her fingers curl around his hands, finding reassurance in that gesture. Slowly, the tension within her own begins to dissipate. She nods, large eyes entirely serious.]

I would like that very much. And...I want to help you, too.

[A smile brightens his face when she speaks those words, the feelings inside of him begin turning from fear into happiness. Knowing someone wished to help him, it brought him such joy.]

Thank you Terra, you are a very kind girl. I promise to repay your kindness one day.

[Terra's cheeks flush at that as she bows her head a little. Compliments of any sort always leave her a bit flustered.]

I think you already do, Frederic. Your being here does help. Otherwise, I would be just waiting for the next bout of weirdness to happen.

[He lifts one of her hands up to kiss it in a very gentlemanly fashion and blushes with her.]

If it means anything to you, I wish to keep protecting you even if I must put my life upon the line for it. That is how deep my desire to protect you is.

[For a moment, she doesn't know what to say. Anything she can think of in response seems inadequate. The kiss to her hand certainly doesn't make that blush go away, either.]

I'm not what sure what I've done to deserve that, but...thank you.

[And she leans in to place a gentle kiss on his cheek.]

[The color on Frederic's face becomes a bright pink and he becomes very flustered from that kiss to his cheek.]

Y-You're welcome, s-seeing your smile brings me such joy.

[Terra moves back a bit, self-conscious all over again and worried his flustered state means she shouldn't have done that.]

Then...it's only fair. Your smile makes me happy, too.

[Noticing her move back, Frederic tries to calm himself and leans in a bit to take hold of her hand.]

That...makes me very happy to hear, Terra. If you ever need me for anything, I promise to be there and help you.

[How can she not smile at that?]

You've been so kind, I--

[Terra notices something out of the corner of her eye and tilts her head up a little to look, though immediately regrets it. Her grip tightens and she hastily glances away with a soft eep, automatically scooting in closer.]

Edited 2010-10-31 01:39 (UTC)

[Frederic notices her scooting in close as he starts get a little nervous. But he also does notice she saw something, so he grows concerned.]

What is the matter, Terra? What did you see?

Edited 2010-10-31 02:44 (UTC)

[Terra wrinkles her nose.]

The wall over there was growing...eyes. Eyes like his. They were watching us.

[Shudder.]

I know, I should ignore it, but...now I don't know if I'll ever be able to sleep.

[Frederic looks at the wall to see nothing whatsoever.]

I don't see any eyes, perhaps you were simply seeing things. But if you'd like for me to stay here for the night, I can do that.

[Terra looks a bit hopeful at that but wavers.]

I would, but...are you sure? I wouldn't want to be a bother.

[Then she glances down and realizes her hands are still tripping his tightly. Sheepishly, she looses her hold a touch.]

Sorry....

[Looking at her with a softness in his eyes, he nods.]

I do not mind resting on the couch if it means you'll be all right. And if you need anything, do not be afraid to call for me.

[He notices her loosen her grip on his hand and gently laughs.]

It's quite all right.

[She seems relieved at that, if still a little self-conscious.]

Okay, but the same goes for you. If you need me, all you have to do is ask. I really won't mind, if I can help.
