Deja Vu

[notathiefcole.livejournal.com]

Characters: Locke and Celes
Summary: TBD
Location: Figaro Castle
Date: Later in the evening after Locke arrived
Warnings: None~

Locke waits for everybody to settle in for the night. It was too loud and noisy that evening to really talk to Celes. It had always been much easier out in the fields by the fire after everyone else had went to bed. But before talking to her, he had something he needed to do.

He disappears out of the castle for a few minutes searching for just the right combination of flowers. It's important that he picks the right ones. It takes him longer than expected as he carefully chooses the perfect spot for each one. After completing the bouquet, he can't believe how familiar it looks to him. Unbeknownst to him, he has picked an identical set as the last time. He begins retracing his steps to Celes' room and is surprised by its familiarity. His steps slow as every step closer to her door brings his memories closer to the surface.

He stands for a bit before her door, shyly hesitant to knock his cheeks flaming with that familiar tint of rouge. Finally grasping the courage to knock as he had done so frequently before, his memories begin to break loose. Visions blur before him as the bouquet droops to his side amidst the weight of these revelations.

((ooc: Might switch to action - we'll see))

The knock is what brings Celes out of her room. She's just been thinking a lot about what's happened lately, about Balthier... and about Locke's return. Balthier's flowers have long since wilted, but the note he sent with them is still with her. The whole situation is going to be about adjustment. She's told Balthier... maybe she should have told Locke already, too.

When she hears the noise, she stands and heads for the door, opening it to see what appears to be Locke in a lot of pain. Not stopping to waste time, she lets him feel a Cura, placing her hands on his shoulders so she can see what's going on.

"Locke? What's wrong?"
