Heart Seed Ruin Log

[You suddenly find yourself in the entrance to a library. Well, it should be an entrance - if you turn around, there isn’t a door behind you, but there’s a desk that says ‘RETURNS’ and a desk that says ‘HELP’, both with containers full of pens on them. There’s also rows and rows of bookcases all stuffed full of books.

Naturally, both the returns desk and the help desk are staffed: the returns desk by a bright-looking young boy, and the help desk by a serious-looking man.

Beyond the shelves of books, there’s a steel door to the left, as well as a wooden door to the right.]

[It's not the City's library, that's for certain.]

I'll help if I can! Are you looking for Chuuya?
sunflowering: (Look up to)

[She's relieved that he brought up her friend all on his own. She smiles encouragingly with a nod.]

That's right! Do you know where I can find him?
vegetariangreatfestival: (and maybe)

[personal profile] vegetariangreatfestival 2017-09-18 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
He should be deeper inside his heart somewhere... I'm sorry, I don't know exactly where he is. But you're friends, so you should be able to find him if you look!

[That's how things work here, symbolically speaking.]
sunflowering: (Help it grow)

[She could always hope that it would have been easier than that, but it's about what she figured.]

Then, is there anything I should know before proceeding forward? What can you tell me? Who are you to Nakahara-san?
vegetariangreatfestival: (maybe I'm the chance of rain)

Hmm... You're in Chuuya's heart, so if you change things, it'll change things about him outside of here. I think you might have to change at least a little to get to him - he doesn't like letting people in.

[But she knows that already, surely.]

I'm Miyazawa Kenji - or, technically I'm a symbol in his heart. Chuuya admires the 'real me' a lot, so I'm here to work the returns desk. You can ask me what you've changed and I can fix it for you, if you want.
sunflowering: (After you've carefully considered it all)

[personal profile] sunflowering 2017-09-23 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
That I've changed?

[She blinks at him] Prior to my arrival here?
vegetariangreatfestival: (and blame myself)

[personal profile] vegetariangreatfestival 2017-09-23 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
Not before you came here - you haven't changed anything yet. But you'll probably change things while you're looking for Chuuya. People change him even when he doesn't want them to.
sunflowering: Do not take (In these small hours)

Is it so wrong to change?

[She asks honestly, voice quiet. She dislikes change. Whenever it has struck her life it has almost always been for the worse. The loss of her parents, the loss of her memories, and even regaining them. Regaining them brought with it tragedy, and now-- now things have changed again at home. She can't blame him for disliking change. It can be so very painful.

But she can't leave him here lost within his own heart, either. She wants to believe that despite all the tragedy and struggles, that chance can be good, too.]


Is it right to return things back to normal once a change has taken place to begin with?
vegetariangreatfestival: (but even when I turn it off)

[personal profile] vegetariangreatfestival 2017-09-24 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think it's bad to change, but Chuuya doesn't like changing. And he can't stop you while you're here - I can't either - so please be gentle.

[Change can be good, but Chuuya is in a vulnerable position here, with other people inside his heart. It's no wonder he's afraid.]
sunflowering: (Things I almost remember)

[personal profile] sunflowering 2017-09-24 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
[Reaching out she gently places a hand upon the child's. She smiles softly, voice quiet and reassuring.]

I promise that I would never do anything to try and hurt Nakahara-san. He is a precious friend you see.
vegetariangreatfestival: (maybe I'm the chance of rain)

[Kenji smiles again and turns his hand to squeeze hers, just a little.]

You're his precious friend too. So, I know you can find him!
sunflowering: (So short lived)

[personal profile] sunflowering 2017-09-24 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
If he feels that way, then I'm glad. [She feels that she has so few of those at home. If she can make at least one here, then she's succeeded.]

Then I best start looking, huh.

[With a last squeeze to the child's hand, she turns around to glance for a door. It seems... there's a steal one and a wooden one. For now... how about the wooden one? Quietly she makes her way toward the door. Whatever lies beyond is a piece of Chuuya's heart, is it? Then she'll have to handle it gently. A hand gently falls upon the knob and she turns it in order to try and push it open.]
