Mingle: Event Kick-Off
[ It was mid-morning. The sky was clear and it was a (not so) very blustery day. It was cool but it was always cool. It was neither too warm nor too hot.

Lukewarm.

And that was just how Bak preferred it. Especially since he had in hand his very important, extra special concoction of wonderful forgetfulness on hand! Bak could stand teasing, but even this was getting ridiculous.

Hefting the bag a little higher so it fit snug into the crook between elbow and shoulder, he stepped off into wild world of Marinanova and promptly had to grab onto his hat.

Opps. He always forgot about that step down.

Taking another step, he nearly tripped again, this time on a rock. Frowning, Bak starred at the offending piece of debris and then he kicked it.

And yelped.

And then held his foot, dropping his bag in a near blinding rush of ”Eeeek!” as he dived for the paper bag, watching as with a POOF half of the contents disappeared into the wind, leaving him sneezing and dazed on the ground wondering what the heck had just happened. Clearly, his own formula had been getting the best of him. It happens when one sneaky scientist messes with the formula and Bak spent the better part of the morning putting the final touches of the mixture together.

Heightened emotions indeed.

Bak will rue this day assuming he survived it. ]


((ooc: Consider this post an open mingle and the start of the Marina Feelings Roulette Event! Creating your own posts is, as always, highly encouraged. And, unless you got an extra hefty dose of it right off the bat (re: by being in proximity to Bak when it happened) feelings should gradually start to go haywire later in the day with strongest feelings in the afternoon and tapering off again as evening descends. For more info on the details, please go here. Have fun!))

[The sudden change in her emotions catches him offguard. Finding himself in a similar position that she had been in just two days before, back pressed against the tree as her emotions get away from her.

And just as quickly as she's sparked to life, the light is gone--snuffed out and she breaks. Head falling against his chest.

To be honest, it's an awkward position for him as he's unsure of how to handle it. Her upset is genuine and the desire to wrap his arms around her and comfort her is strong, but he doesn't because there is so many things wrong with that idea. Her emotions are from the repercussions of what she'd done to him-which has resulted in him viewing her as a complete stranger. He isn't one who is comfortable with giving acts of affection, so the very concept of wanting to give her comfort should be foreign to him in the first place. That desire remains though, proving that his relationship with this girl is a lot more complicated than he could probably even imagine. Instead he just uncomfortably stands there, his body tense and unsure.

She cares about him. That's the only thing he knows for sure at the moment. How much and the reasons why elude him but he knows she cares.

There are ideas forming in his head though. Things he just wasn't ready to discuss outside the confines of his own thoughts until he was able to get clarification. All just guesses from the information he did have. But they contradict the information he does know about himself. But then he isn't even sure what is real or not about himself at the moment.]


Just...tell me. I know I'm missing someone. I can't see their face but I know they were there.

[Eyes closing, he leans his head back against the tree, forcing the words to come out-even if he's not sure he's ready for the answer.]

But then there are times that I think maybe it's just you but I'm not sure. None of it makes sense and I can't tell if it's one or two.

[Each distinct in his head but with a huge sense of overlap in his emotions is muddying up the waters even more. The whole thing is making him second guess everything he knows about himself.]

Just tell me, did you just take yourself or is there another?

[All these questions. How much longer can she keep this farce up? She never anticipated that after such a short amount of time things would derail so quickly. At home, when she cast the spell, she never imagined they would be in a situation like Marina. Or that they would have to interact ever again.][A quiet, ashamed murmur. Because she knows the pain of losing everything, she wouldn't take any more than that from him. It was her belief taking his memories of her would make things better. Her head shakes from side to side. She knows it's difficult to swallow, all of this.]

Probably... you're confused. The me of the past, and the me of the present.

[Her human self verses her vampire self. She smiles weakly against him.]

You want to know the truth, Zero? Actually, we're foster siblings...

[That isn't what he was expecting to hear. Not even in the slightest. The past and the present. Foster siblings. Again, only more questions are brought forth from her answers.

This isn't what he'd thought their bond would be. Though to be honest he felt a little foolish for believing that maybe there had been something romantic between the two of them. She was a pureblood vampire and he was a vampire hunter--that hated purebloods with every ounce of his being.

The idea of him living with a pureblood vampire was ludicrous.
Except for one thing.]


Kaien Kurosu is more of an idiot than I thought.

[How much damage had that moron's ideologic visions caused? Of course he would take in a pureblood and agree to raise it.]

He probably thought it would be a great experiment...

[ . . . Somehow that comment hurts a little. Is that what he really thinks? And such a low opinion of her adoptive father. He isn't so cruel...]

I wasn't... just some kind of experiment. Headmaster- he isn't like that...

[Sorry, he still can't make heads or tails of it yet.]

That's exactly what his school is. You don't think he'd think of putting a pureblood and a hunter in the same house together as some sort of proof of co-existence.

[Yet...had they? It didn't make complete sense. The her from 'before' and 'after'. An event...]

His school is proof. How else can any of us hope to take steps forward together?

[Quietly...]

I know you may not want to believe it. But there... there are plenty of us who want nothing more than to get along, too.

[You're right. He doesn't want to believe it. With a shake of his head, he turns away.]

Altering your opponents memories is a great first step. Really conductive to instilling a sense of trust.

[And yes, he's pissed and needing space. There's a lot of information that isn't making any sense and he's long past the point of being able to handle it.]

[At that, she remains quiet, unsure what to say. Because he's right, she knows. But to her, even if he hates her for it, at least... at least he's safe.

At least, that's what she thought before recalling everything here. Evenso, what does he want her to say, if anything at all?]

[There are no words needed. He's already ended their conversation and began to walk away from her.]
