On the waking up of old muses...

[taking_action]

Oh mun,

I appreciate this, I really do, but don't you think you should concentrate on what you have first? Especially with the holidays coming and all, you know you are going to be incredibly busy. Besides, you just brought in someone new, shouldn't you wait until a few months at least?

I'm not planning on going anywhere, after all. We've been together this long, I have no desire to leave just yet. Just remember this place and I'll be here.

How long have you been together?

[taking_action]

Over five years now, soon to be six.

[charcoalfeather]

Wow! I've only been here a short time.

You've probably seen a whole lot, haven't you?

[taking_action]

Well, to be honest, I've only really seen two of... what was it that they're called? "Games"?

It's been a while since I've gotten a chance like this, but I don't want her to overwork herself.

[charcoalfeather]

Oh, I understand.

My mundane has been told the same thing, but he still wants to put me somewhere.

[taking_action]

Mine does as well. She said that she 'misses' me.

[ He makes a face. ] Like having downtime is any fun.

[taking_action]

Sonic!

[Guess who's happy to see him.]

I suppose it depends on the person.

[A soft laugh.]

But you never struck me as the type who likes to stay still.

[quickster]

[ He looks a little confused. Wasn't totally uncommon for strangers to know his name or anything, but.. did they meet before? He can't quite shake the feeling. There was an undertone of confusion in his voice. ]

No way. This hedgehog is one of action and adventurin'!

[taking_action]

[Elise gives him a soft smile.]

I don't think you stopped the entire time I knew you.

[Except that one time, but she's not going to think about that. Especially since she blew up the flame - that means it won't happen, right?]

[quickster]

Knew?

[ All right, cue a look of complete confusion. ]

I'm gettin' a strange sense of deja vu, but I don't remember us meeting before.

blew out* Wow I can't type

[taking_action]

[She looks like she was sort of expecting that.]

Tell me, Sonic, have you ever been to a place called Soleanna?

:3

[quickster]

[ He thinks about it briefly, then shrugs. ]

Name's not ringin' any bells.

[taking_action]

[She shakes her head, but smiles.]

I'm not surprised. Changing a timeline would cause that, I suppose.

[quickster]

Yeah, that would do it.

[ Oddly, he doesn't seem the least bit surprised. ]

So why do you remember all this?

[taking_action]

My mun tends to like to 'play' right from the moment before time resets.

I'm not entirely sure why. Perhaps she gets some sort of pleasure out of confusing people.
