A-ah...I didn't finish all of the laundry...The kitchen needs to be swept, too...

[It's the hushed voice of a young man, sounding both longing and peaceful. Gremio, sitting against the side of a building near the fountain, doesn't register the change in scenery quite immediately. But several seconds later...]

E-eh? C-could this be-?

[He's not sure what he expected to see upon dying, but this...probably wasn't it.]

You sure sound domestic.

[axeofoath]

Y-yes, I--

[He hasn't noticed his device yet and even if he had, he wouldn't know what it is.]

A-are you a ghost?!

[heelsandlaw.livejournal.com]

Last I checked, I wasn't.

Wait, wait. Did you just get here?

[axeofoath]

Th-then how--I-I certainly haven't...been here before, b-but...

[heelsandlaw.livejournal.com]

Oh. Well, this is strange. Never figured myself as the welcome wagon for this place.

You're in a place called the City. There's a guide (http://somekindofsin.livejournal.com/tag/city%20guide) here that says everything far better than I could.

[axeofoath]

A-a guide, you say? Might it explain why I can't see you?

--!

[ Tyr hears that voice, and it's instantly recognisable. The words themselves are eerily familiar too, but he's too busy thinking how Gremio's voice is coming from his device. ]

Gremio? [ His voice is a bit quick and uncertain at first, but becomes more firm. ] Gremio!

[ Though there's also a note of desperation there. ] Can you hear me? Where are you?

voice;

[axeofoath]

[Ah, it's the young master's voice again. Although he feels guilty for causing him to worry, it was...

Wait, why is he hearing him now?!]

Y-Young Master...?

voice;

[stargathering]

Yeah, it's me...

[ You've showed up here twice, come on! ...Oh wait, Presea said people don't normally remember those times. ]

Hey, can you see what's around you?

voice;

[axeofoath]

Ah, Y-Young Master...I don't believe that what I see is quite real anymore...

[This must be some hallucination or dream on the brink of death. Gremio can't think of any other explanation, though he doesn't wish to cause any more pain for Tyr.]

voice;

[stargathering]

[ It's going into the realm of creepy anyway. Of course Tyr wouldn't get out of bad curses for long. ]

What do you see...?

[ Also, lol, our keywords for the last two icons match. ]

voice;

[axeofoath]

...A fountain and a strange city, in the middle of winter. H-how odd...

[So they do! How appropriate. XD]

[wind-magic.livejournal.com]

...Gremio?

voice;

[axeofoath]

I-is that...Luc's voice? What a strange dream this is.

voice;

[wind-magic.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's me. This isn't a dream though.

voice;

[axeofoath]

A-are you certain? It feels real, but...W-why are you here? Are you with the young master?

voice;

[wind-magic.livejournal.com]

It's definitely real. And I've been living with Tyr since I got here. I can't really tell you why we're here though.

voice;

[axeofoath]

Has anything happened? Are you all right?

voice;

[drizzlinginside.livejournal.com]

[Here, have someone who understands mother henning like the best.] Um, excuse me? The kitchen?

voice;

[axeofoath]

[A kindred soooul~!] Ah, y-yes...I don't think I'll be able to get around to it.

[This device thing is still strange. He's not used to speaking to people he can't see!]

voice;

[drizzlinginside.livejournal.com]

[Mommy bonding times is a-go!] ... You just arrived, right? [A wistful tone, there. It's always like this when someone new arrives.]

voice;

[axeofoath]

[Aww~] Th-that's right. However, I was very lucky to be found by Young Master Tyr.

voice; 1/2

[drizzlinginside.livejournal.com]

.... Young Master--?

voice;

[drizzlinginside.livejournal.com]

Wait, you're... you're Gremio? Tyr told me a lot about you!

voice;

[axeofoath]

That is correct! H-has he really, now? [How embarrassing!]
