Whose eyes are those eyes?
|
// JUNE 5TH - 4:00PM Junko liked to pretend that as time went by, her existence wasn't undergoing some major changes. She was determined to not let Taish know this, under any circumstances. She liked her grip on him, and teasing him was always going to be fun. Practically torturing him was a sport she would always be a winner at. If he knew that she felt the untangling of the strings that held them together as Master and Persona, surely he would grow a spine and start throwing abuse back at her. As his Persona - she didn't know what to do with herself. It's not like Taish used her for anything. She had all these abilities and... She let out a loud sigh, and slumped down onto the grass. Currently she was by the lakeside at the Samegawa Flood Plains. Taish didn't seem to care that she had left the house - and to be honest, she really wanted some space to herself. "Do I need space?" she asked herself, baffled at the thought. The only thing that really kept her mind of these silly thoughts and questions was her ever growing love for Textiles. The night that Taish tried to shamelessly flirt with Aiella over the net, she had bugged him time and time over to be her dummy. She was trying to make some sort of light jacket or hoodie to replace his old one, but it was still in the works and far from being done. She had also, kinda... gave up on it for now. It's charm and it's attention-consuming qualities had worn off on her today. Today Junko just felt plain lonely. She had plenty of reason to. Taish was only really her bully-doll - gone were the days were they actually did things together or played outdoors. Years had passed. If they had been friends before, they certainly weren't now. She was just some stupid imaginary friend. She lifted her hands, raising them against the sunlight. Her hands were slightly transparent. She sighed again, a foreign feeling - a bad one - filling her stomach. She had been outside of Taish's head for so long, she didn't realize that once in a while she had to climb right back in there from time to time so she could recover strength. Maybe all she really needed today was a friend. For the first time she felt doubt, and she was scared of this feeling. She had thought of talking to Aiella... maybe even Ren, but... were they really friends to her? Now Junko had reached a state were she was seemingly fed up with the world, she groaned and lay back onto the grass. Maybe if she just lay in the sun for a while, she would feel better?

It had been about a week and a half since something really strange had happened to the American, Glacio Reese. The night that changed everything was awkward. He was faced with another person who claimed to be himself and made him realize how he had ended up truly feeling, which he had eventually come to accept after his other person tried to attack him, and someone had saved him. Shortly after that, about a day or two after the event Glacio started hearing another voice in his head. It made him worry, but it made him feel better, though it was kind of pushy, but made him feel better none the less. Today was Tuesday and the voice in Glacio's head wanted to see some parts of the town,but Glacio couldn't do it all day, so it took a while with the voice questioning everything. After school Glacio decided he might as well humor the voice, so Glacio thought of one place that not a lot of people went to in their free time from what he knew, The flood plain, but before he headed out to the flood plain, he went home to switch into his usual attire consisting of his red and black striped jacket, white dress shirt, black pants, and his red and black shoes. Then he headed out to the plains. After a few minutes had passed he had started getting questioned by the voice again," Where are we going, Boy? And why is it taking so long? Can you not move your legs any faster?" Glacio responded calmly in his head," Calm down, I'm taking you to a place we haven't been to before, and it takes a while for me to get to without getting lost since I don't come by here very often." After which the other voice replied," Very well, as long as we get to this Flood plain that you speak of soon." Almost immediately afterwords Glacio saw the flood plain that his new friend was somewhat anxious to see. And as Glacio expected there were few people here, actually there were only two people here, one far off doing something on their own, and another, a girl laying down by herself, and from what he could tell, maybe she was sad or lonely, like how he was. Though he kind of assumed this about anyone who was by themselves, in a place with not very many people. After that, Glacio started to walk towards the girl, the voice in his head started," There is a lone girl over there, boy. You should go talk to her, but she seems to...to dark for my taste." Glacio responded," Well, it isn't your taste that counts since you're not the one that will be talking to her. Plus, I mean it's not like the moment I talk to her she instantly becomes my girlfriend." The other voice, Samael remained quiet. Glacio finally reached the girl, sat down next to her, but not too terribly close to her and said," It's pretty bright out today don't you think?" After this, Glacio tried to remember what normal, social people did next, and then Samael said in Glacio's head angrily," Tell her your name you fool!! Have you no manners?" Then Glacio said," My name is Glacio. What's yours?" |

Huh? Junko opened her eyes slowly, letting her eyes adjust to the sunlight. Someone had sat down next to her. It was a boy with white hair, and looked...more or less the same age as her. If she even had an age, that is. "It's pretty bright out today, don't you think?" Yeah. Bright enough to give me a god damned headache. Junko silently cursed whatever god thought it was funny to blind people like this and sat up, blinking her eyes a little to get rid of the dark spots in her vision. Soon her eyes adjusted and she looked over the boy. " My name is Glacio. What's yours?" Glacio... was a pretty weird name. But, it had a nice ring to it. Junko silently approved, and just wrinkled her nose in reply. In few seconds it took for her to finally blurt out her name, she wondered if she could ignore him, if she should ignore him, if she should blow him off, and tell him to go away. But then she remembered how lonely she felt, and remembering it punched a gaping hole in her chest. Maybe it wasn't a bad thing if she tried to make a friend? "I'm.. Junko." She scolded herself a little. Even though she had admitted that she was lonely, she couldn't help but feel like it would have been easier if she had just blown the poor kid off, or told him to go away. Kid? Kid. He was her age. She thought. Oh, semantics. "Sometimes I really have to question how stable I am..." she thought to herself. Junko tried her best to shake off all the negative feelings she had clinging to the inside of her head. She looked over to Glacio, seeing his gray eyes, and almost-white hair. He seems... nice. "So, what brings you to the Flood Plain, Glacio? Come to relax a little?" She immediately kicked herself for even asking the question. Not because it invited more conversation, but he was likely to ask her what she was doing here herself. That wasn't really a conversation she thought she couldn't have, even if she could think of words or sentences or even a language to explain it in. Besides... she came here to relax. She wanted to try and put these feelings behind her, to try and forget about them. And what exactly was wrong? If she thought that even Aiella or ren would be able to help her, then how did she expect somebody she had just met to understand and help her? And who even said that she wanted to share these things anyway!? Edited by Junko Harakiri, Jun 12 2013, 10:08 PM.

Glacio was surprised that he had actually managed to start up what he seemed to be small talk, even though Samael was the one that forced him to do it, he was still surprised he managed to go through with it. Then the girl, not even a girl really, since she was about his age, responded to his simple question," Hi, I'm Junko!" Glacio then thought, well I got the first part done, at least I know her name now. Samael then said, ha, it's only beginning friend, for this is what I would call the beginning of a conversation. Then Junko spoke up again saying,"So, what brings you to the Flood Plain, Glacio? Come to relax a little?" Glacio responded," Yeah, this is the only place I know of that is routinely quite that is close to my house. That and well, I also just got out of school, so yeah, relaxing was what I came here to do." Glacio starting thinking again, oh god, what do people normally say to continue conversations, what do they say. Samael replied with a sigh," Well, most people who actually interact with others normally ask about a person's day so far or something of the like." Glacio said to Samael, thanks I guess. Must say something normal. "So, um, how are you doing today, Junko? Anything interesting happening as of late?", Glacio asked, trying to sound as natural as possible. Glacio thought, Nailed it. Samael then said," Well, it was weirdly put, but I must commend you as you were actually able to sound like an actually human being." |

"Yeah, this is the only place I know of that is routinely quite that is close to my house. That and well, I also just got out of school, so yeah, relaxing was what I came here to do." School? Wasn't that some place that children went to sit and learn things? Do they go to school everyday? Junko shuddered at the thought of it - she liked her freedom, and she didn't like the sound of being tied down by something like that. It sounded far too time consuming and too repetitive. How can people even stand going to school? The fact that Glacio had said he was relaxing after school had made Junko as think that school, was super stressful, and she had enough problems of her own to contend with - never mind some stupid building filled with other kids! Glacio chimed in once more, "So, um, how are you doing today, Junko? Anything interesting happening as of late?" Junko thought back to her last few days. Meeting Aiella. Cleaning. Not going to Junes and watching anime with Ren. Pretty... boring really. Wow, she really sucked at life. Junko let out a small sigh, "Nothing really. I've been trying to make a jacket for my... room-mate, but I've ran out of drive for now." Talking to Glacio like a normal person was, in a word - weird. All the interaction she ever had with Taish as he grew up was her bullying him into submission or telling him how much of a horrible human being he was. Aiella and Ren... she wasn't sure how to act around them. but here she was now, managing to act and function as a normal human being. If she wasn't going to be used as a Persona, she had to find a way to exist in this world... connect with someone. Perhaps that someone could be Glacio? |

A jacket, home made for a room mate, now that's a surprise, Glacio thought, most people buy jackets for their friends or something, but maybe this is a special person to Junko. Samael then chimed in mentally, is it that rare to see someone make something by hand? Have people nowadays resorted to show affection only by buying these items for the people they care about? Glacio honestly didn't know, he didn't normally hang out with people, normally he was by himself reading or playing a game of sorts. Though he assumed this was how it worked since normally when he got something new it was bought, and not home made, unless it was his father's cooking. He then said to Junko," Drive as in like the ability to stay motivated. If you are having trouble with it, I have a friend who could probably help if you would like it. Or maybe if you wouldn't mind telling me about it, you could tell me what you have done so far?" Glacio didn't know alot about sewing and making clothing items, but like with other things in life, Glacio figured maybe he could help Junko out by talking with her about it. Glacio was happy that he was starting to become a little more social. It's only been a week, but he was aware that he was slowly opening up and becoming more of a person. |

Help...? Help? Junko felt her stomach twist as Glacio offered his aid to her. Her mood sank even more. Could she really be considered something worthy of gaining help from others? Did she deserve such kindness when she dishes out so much cruelty and abuse to her Master? Glacio was looking at her inquisitively. She wanted to be honest, she really did.. But.. It's not that I'm stuck on any particular thing, or find any of it hard... her voice trailed off. It's just that I'm starting to think that it's a waste of time. Maybe I should have made something for myself instead? she faked out a small giggled, and forced out a smile. All she could think about was how happy Taish had been that night, talking to Aiella. All she could think about was how uninterested he was in her exploits. How he dismissed her snarky comments, and brushed off her abused so easily. She almost wanted to hate Aiella, but she couldn't find the heart to do it, not after she had been so kind to both herself and Taish. The changes that Taish were slowly going through... those were to blame. What would happen to her in the days to come the days where he abuse and power over Taish would fade? Junko hated it. How was she supposed to protect him from the cruelty of others like that? At any rate, she couldn't come clean to Glacio about how she was feeling. Instead, she endeavoured to pursue the conversation more, eager to kill more time. Oh, you have a friend who knows about textiles? she started, tilting her head slightly. I don't really get out much... I haven't even been to the local Textiles store yet. |

He listened to Junko's response to his offer of help, "It's not that I'm stuck on any particular thing, or find any of it hard..." her voice trailed off. It's just that I'm starting to think that it's a waste of time. Maybe I should have made something for myself instead? Glacio listened as he tried his best to be a supportive person, but considering the fact the he only opened up to the world about a week ago, words were failing him, but a faint idea sparked in his mind but then Junko seemed to change the subject by saying as she tilted her head " Oh, you have a friend who knows about textiles? I don't really get out much... I haven't even been to the local Textiles store yet." Glacio obviously knew what he was going to say," Don't worry, I haven't been to the local textile store either, but if I may ask something. Why would you think this project that you are working on for a friend is pointless. I mean, and this is me assuming, because I don't understand other peoples thought processes, but um...," He forgot what he was going to say, and then Samael said to him, If she really cares about this friend of hers, then this project of hers isn't pointless. Glacio said thanks to Samael and then continued," If you really do care about this friend of yours, which I am sure you do, then this project of your's isn't pointless. But maybe you could also start on something for your self, maybe make a pair of the item and have one for you and one for your friend, and that will show how much you care." Glacio was pretty much pulling ideas that couples would often do in some of the animes that he watched or some of the Manga that he read, now sometimes these ideas didn't work, though sometimes they did. |

"Don't worry, I haven't been to the local textile store either, but if I may ask something. Why would you think this project that you are working on for a friend is pointless. I mean, and this is me assuming, because I don't understand other peoples thought processes, but um...," The boy paused, apparently haven forgotten where we was going with that. Junko bit her tongue, and did her best to not show her annoyance at this. She knew Glacio was trying to help but the situation to her seemed like a lost cause. "If you really do care about this friend of yours, which I am sure you do, then this project of your's isn't pointless. But maybe you could also start on something for your self, maybe make a pair of the item and have one for you and one for your friend, and that will show how much you care." Junko pouted. She had a hard time admitting that she cared about Taish, considering the abuse she hurled at him day after day. Kind words never motivated that boy, and they probably never would. Besides, she didn't really know exactly what she cared about more. Taish, or getting rid of - and replacing - that tattered mess he calls a coat. "I suppose." she said, quietly. "Say, do you want to go to the store and grab a bite to eat? We could bring it back here and talk more." Junko suggested. She wasn't really comfortable pursuing the conversation about Taish right now... if anything she just wanted to push him out of her mind and relax. That, and she was getting increasingly hungry. And she didn't want to be alone. |

Samael had started talking to Glacio about different ways on how to talk to a girl, being increasingly rude towards Junko, even though Junko would never be able to hear it, unless Glacio ever learned to summon his little Sammy, so Glacio ignored what Samael was saying and focused entirely on Junko. He then thought of something, she was cute, but quickly put that thought aside. Then Junko had said, answering his statement,"I suppose." And then added a question of her own,"Say, do you want to go to the store and grab a bite to eat? We could bring it back here and talk more." Glacio quickly nodded, saying,"Yeah, sure." He then stood up, offering a hand to Junko to help her up, also saying,"If you don't mind I'll pay for the food." Samael then started in again, The girl, Junko was her name? wants to go get food with you..., Samael paused and then started saying,I think she might like you, though she might not, who knows. Glacio then said to Samael, you know you have been acting weird lately, what's up with that? Samael then said in his normal tone of refined speaking, You seem to forget that we are one in the same, the way I act is influenced by how you are acting and feeling, and since you are actually talking to someone, a girl none the less, you are feeling strange, therefore I am also acting strange. Glacio then retorted, you know so much that it scares me sometimes. |
