[action/video] - Returning - 010

[relinquishing]

Lunaday, Ifrit-Decan 13, ND 2018

[There were only three things that Guy really could remember from the last few moments of his life.

Pain. Rage. Fear.

All of them, all in a sudden burst; controlling his actions, forcing his body to act on what his mind had pressed back for years and years. It was the horrifying feeling of having no control and yet being completely aware of your actions, raising his sword above his head to give a blow he thought he'd never have to see with his own eyes. The curse slot was in control, and there was absolutely nothing he could do but watch.

There was a shaking of the ground, a shout. The twang of an arrow, the ruffle of leaves... and then the world went white. He wasn't in Auldrant anymore; not surrounded by a forest of thick trees and mockingly clear skies, but instead blue-stoned buildings, humid air, the bustle of people, the roar of water... the eerily familiar glow of a massive coral out of the corner of his eye. His clothes were also sopping wet.

Too bad that sense of de-ja-vu wasn't quite what was on his mind.

The moment Guy feels his feet against the cobblestone, sword still raised above his head, there is a mental snap; a severing of control and emotions so sudden and harsh, his entire body tenses, limbs locking and vision goes black. He falters, stumbling forward a step. The katana slips from his hand, clanging to the ground as the blonde crumples beside it.

What a disaster. What a nightmare. But at least he was separated from that monster. At least for now. Thank the Score... darkness would do him some good. Here's hoping someone familiar doesn't leave him out on the pavement.

...]

[It isn't until early afternoon that the network is finally accessed. Guy himself doesn't seem to be having any trouble figuring out the SFC - it's coming back to him like he'd only been here yesterday. In fact, he's back in a very familiar apartment, sitting heavily on a couch he remembers sharing for far too long, the balcony of the second floor of a Yutopil apartment just visible in the background.

He looks very tired. But hey, no need to let that stop a smile.]

Hey there, Vatheon. Seems I had a vanishing act for a little while there, hah. Sorry.

I hope you guys haven't had too much trouble lately.

[He pauses, lips pressing together in thought, before bluntly speaking again--]

And hey... whoever went and "borrowed" my energy gauge? I'd really like it back sometime. Please.

[[ooc: ACTION IS FOR LIMITED CR ONLY PLEASE - it has been plotted in advance. :Db Feel free to respond to the video otherwise.]]

[fabrecation]

[Luke had just been walking through the plaza when someone literally appeared right in front of him. And after jumping back and blinking, he realizes that that someone is familiar, and while he's soaking wet, he's got his sword above his head -

And before Luke can say his name, the sword falls, and the person falls. Luke stares for a second, still too shocked to move, before he does and kneels down to pull Guy up by the shoulders, then gives him a couple of shakes.]

Guy? Guy!

[Of course, Luke doesn't get a response. So, instead of sitting there uselessly, he maneuvers Guy over his own shoulders, then straightens his legs and looks left and right, before making his way to the welcome center. Unfortunately, Luke isn't really sure where the clinic is. Surely, someone there would know...]

[In which Bianca looks at the SFC some more...huh, is that really him?]

Hey, Guy! Is that you? You're in a lot of trouble for making everyone worry here!

[ofthefullmoon]

[ Oh, hey! She remembers you! And though she looks a bit tired (between worrying about Ioder and worrying about Yuri, worrying was turning into a full-time job), she looks quite happy when she addresses you on the SFC today! ]

Hello again! Welcome back! It's so good to see you again!

[last_lombax]

I was wondering where you went to. Haven't heard from you in a bit. How are things?

[video]

[seablaze]

Figures the next time I see ya on here something else have been snagged from you. Might think about just chaining them in place.
[Grinning as he gave a wave. Faris was being lazy again and hanging in his bad. And he wasn't alone. There was a snoozing blonde in a tutu, make-up and marker all over them.]
Just the usual trouble here. What about yourself, scallywag?

[fintastic]

Hi there! Welcome back! I don't think you missed much, maybe a monster attack. And a bunch of people got sick the other week!

[video]

[closedcircuit]

We've been managing, of course. I suspect you'll find out plenty from others, if you haven't already.

But for your vanishing act...did you go back to your world?

[chosen_gigolo]

Oh, were you gone?

[He is just joking, but Martel forbid he actually show just how glad he is to have one of his very few close friends back in the bubble.

...they are close, right? He's still not sure with how they'd fought an' all... Damnit, how does he friendship?]

[He remembers after all, and that's enough to put the princess into a childishly gleeful mood.]

I did ask Luke before borrowing it, you know! I'll bring it over right away. Unless you'd prefer to meet elsewhere?

[video] super late

[demonicbookworm]

Welcome back, Guy!

<sub>[with his friend vanishing Chitose why did you leave him all alone here he is happy to see someone's actually back.

Though maybe he shouldn't be glad...?]</sub>
