Shards of Memory- Prologue: Fractured Union Part II

Yotsu Yuriko, Martial Artist

Yuriko:[SBLOCK]

"Thank you...Just one question, though--what does that thing with the naivete mean? I heard Master Senyuki saying it earlier, but I just wanted to try to sound grown up by saying it...since I look grown up, I guess I'll have to sound like one too or else someone might take advantage of me..."

"I see . . . ," Yuriko replied, all thought of the food completely gone from her mind. "If you train at this monastery, perhaps you will learn enough so that someone couldn't take advantage of you. But . . . I'm not certain if you're being honest with me . . . Rin."

*Yuriko paused for several moments, letting the silence hang in the air.*

OOC: Hmmm . . . there's a Rin in Rystil Arden.[/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

Yuriko:
[SBLOCK]
"I don't know...I'm trying to be honest, but...I'm afraid of what the answer might be. I guess the truth is that it is kind of both. I heard Master Senyuki say it before, and even though I didn't know what the words meant, somehow I had this strange hunch that it was the right thing to say when I was talking to you...Does that make any sense? Is that what it is normally like to be a grown-up?"

(OOC: That's true)

Rystil

[SBLOCK]“Well it’s not bread and cheese...I wonder if we’re early or late for an actual meal this time,” Zaeryn says chuckling, as he takes a piece of jerky to chew on...while hoping they’re early for dinner.[/SBLOCK]

Zaeryn:
[SBLOCK]
*Valyssa looks around at the two or three other people in the galley, but doesn't take any of the jerky.*

"Hmm...well, looks like some of them are leaving, and nobody is entering, so I'd say we were late again."

"I'm not certain . . . I grew up fast to - not the same way as you - but it was the same, nevertheless," Yuriko commented, still not buying it outright. "I . . . have a feeling myself, Rin . . . you know that I was coming here for a reason before I met your family, right? Well, I have a feeling that I'll be leaving again soon . . . maybe before dawn tomorrow."

(OOC: " That's true" - the name or what she was saying?
[/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

Yuriko:
[SBLOCK]
"Yes, that's right...You're going to be gone soon...Yuriko, can I talk to you somewhere private?"

*Rin seems to be acting a bit odd.*

(OOC: It's true that the name can be found in Rystil Arden, though that wasn't where I got the name )

Rystil

[SBLOCK]“I think we’re going to have to get someone come and find us when it’s mealtime, otherwise we’re never going to see anything other than what we can find for ourselves...that’s not a very appetising thought is it...unless Lyri keeps a lot of sweet deserts just lying around!”[/SBLOCK]

"Yes, that's right...You're going to be gone soon...Yuriko, can I talk to you somewhere private?"

"Of course, Rin-san," Yuriko offered, smiling. She set her bowl and sticks on a nearby flat surface and pointed to her temporary room. "My room is that way . . . if that's okay with you."

*Yuriko waited and let Rin lead the way, keeping an eye on her.*[/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

Zaeryn:
[SBLOCK]
"Hmm...yes, I guess that's true. Good idea, Zaeryn," Valyssa praises with a kiss, stroking his neck gently as she watches him eat.

Yuriko:
[SBLOCK]
*As they enter the room, Rin closes the door, and then asks Yuriko:*

"So, what gave me away?"

*Then her form melts and changes, until she becomes a mirror image of Yuriko, scar and all.*
