folklorist | ϡ - chapter thirteen; rememberance [action|written]

[ Around mid-afternoon Helios will be making his way across town with a small bundle of flowers in his hands. It might seem a bit odd, random even, but today is a rather...hard day for him; regardless he does have a small smile on his face as he makes his way through town. There's soft hum coming from his lips, absentmindedly and almost indistinguishably if you're not close enough. It's a soft melody and peaceful, or as peaceful as he can manage it to be. He has his journal with him just in case anything goes wrong.

He pauses momentarily at the edge of town, looking back almost as if he's thinking of making a post but...he decides against it for now. And then he turns and heads off into the forest.

He'll return later with one lone flower still in between his fingers and some dirt on both pant legs and his hands. He takes a seat by the fountain in the town square idly looking at his journal and of course the flower he is twirling unmindful with his pointer finger and thumb of his left hand. ]

If you could go back and change one event in your life, would you? Or would leave it as a reminder or perhaps a lesson learned? History is known for teaching us our past mistakes and also to be used in helping us in the future as well. History repeats itself as the saying goes.

Kinda? I'm a country and stuff. Tons of responsibility though.

Yeah, so it's a stupid question. Duh. Things happened and you have to keep going and junk. Don't question it or you get like this.

...a country. Which one if you don't mind me asking?

Yes you're right. But... [ He pauses momentarily. ]

--you can't help but wonder sometimes if things had turned out differently how life would have been.

Poland!

Maybe but if you do, things just get totally depressing. So you have to think about awesome stuff and the future.

Poland? Really? I would guess you've spoken to Yao then? China I mean. Frederic has told me about you too. It's a pleasure to meet you by the way. I wish the mood of the conversation was bit less...dreary.

Sometimes it's hard though, to let go. But I suppose you're right about that.

China? Yeah, I've known him for a while. You know Frederic too? Oh. It's nice to meet you too? The mood totally bites, though.

Letting go is hard and you don't really have to, you just have to keep going! If you keep going, more awesome things can happen and stuff.

I thought you might. He must be happy to see you. Oh where are my manners, it's Helios Sprensonne. It is and I'm truly sorry for that.

Yes you're right. These events even if we can't change them...do make us stronger in a way.

Helios? That's a cool name! But whatever, good moods can be made.

Yeah see? And then you just have to try to have things get better.

Oh you think so? They certainly can be!

I...guess you're right. Somethings just take a bit longer to heal I suppose.

Totally cool name. Seriously. You just have to talk about good things. It's that easy.

I'm always right. But you just have to keep trying. Things can heal. I mean, things kind of have to.

Usually I'm not like this in all honesty. It's just today has been a bit taxing.

They do, don't they? But they also sometime leave scars as well. But those scars help shape us I suppose into who we are at present.

Ugh yeah. Some days are like, lame like that and everything. But then the next day comes and it's kind of better. You can totally do something fun tomorrow!

But you just like, have to keep going for tomorrow and junk. Even with scars.

Fun? That sounds like a wonderful idea.

You most certainly do. Especially when there are those you care about to look after, and those who care about you looking after you as well.

Fun is always a cool idea.

Yeah. There's always somebody who needs you so you just have to keep going. At least for them. But it's probably the best if you do it for yourself too just because yeah, you're you.

[ If you could hear him he'd be chuckling on his end. ]

Thank you Poland for everything, it's made my mood considerably better. [ He pauses as he thinks something over. Oh! Right housing arrangements, derp. ]

I was wondering if you have any place to stay at the moment? I do have some room in my apartment and I believe Frederic would love to have you stay there with us.

I'm totally good at that.

[Give him a big moment. He doesn't know Frederic that well yet or Helios either. He hates to be alone, but oh no people he doesn't know well. It's a while later he adds on:]

It's okay. I can find my own place and stuff.

[ He notes the time it takes for the other to write that second reply. But Helios understands and he won't press the other if he doesn't want to. But he couldn't not have suggested it. ]

I see. Well if you'd ever like to come over for a visit or have a change of mind it's Community building seven floor five room twenty-two. You're certainly welcome to stop by whenever you like.

[He'll be taking advantage of the permission to visit. It'll practically be like he's living with them. But that'll have to wait once he gets used to them.]

Thanks.

Oh there's no need for that. I should be thanking you for at least lighting my mood considerably, so...thank you Poland. I do hope we'll get to talk more in the future.

[It's probably bad he's actually thanking him, what with how this guy can be with his confidence at times.]

I'm really awesome at that stuff, so it's nothing big.
