One question, if you don't mind...?

I had an image in my head when I touched you....an image of you hurt and bleeding.

[icthyosapiens.livejournal.com]

...oh, is that all? *problem solved! maybe*

What we do here... sometimes it happens. *shrug*

[nualasilverlanc.livejournal.com]

You're not a trained warrior, you're valued for your intellect. I know this.

[Crossing one leg over the other, sitting comfortably in a chair flipping through a leath bound book]

You were originally human....

[icthyosapiens.livejournal.com]

Not always. Some things... can't be avoided.

*what.* ...what?

[nualasilverlanc.livejournal.com]

You can't remember, can you? Those memeories are buried too deep for you to access. That's why you confused me when you said you were about forty years old. Your memories go deeper then that.

[icthyosapiens.livejournal.com]

*Nuala wouldn't joke...! suddenly he wishes for water*

...how could they go farther?

[nualasilverlanc.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure, they're buried very deep and I didn't want to pry. I on'y saw glimpses of them, but if I'm correct, you're over a hundred years old. Perhaps as old as a hundred and fifty.

[icthyosapiens.livejournal.com]

When I was found, yes--*best not to think of that, and what those first days were like*

I wasn't aware of... of anything more.

[nualasilverlanc.livejournal.com]

No, you wouldn't be. All of your memories, even your original name are hidden from you.

[Reaching out to touch his shoulder lightly]

It would take quite a bit of effort, but I might be able to help you remember. If you want to remember, that is.

[icthyosapiens.livejournal.com]

You've... seen this?

[nualasilverlanc.livejournal.com]

Only bits and pieces. I told you, I didn't pry into it and there were other things to distract me at the time.

[Like the flood of emotions coming from Abe when they touched]

[icthyosapiens.livejournal.com]

What... pieces?

I--I do want to know, I think.

[nualasilverlanc.livejournal.com]

Maybe you should take some time to think about this. I don't want to upset you....and usually memories are buried for a good reason.

[Looking into his eyes/goggles]

[icthyosapiens.livejournal.com]

They're not... good memories?

[nualasilverlanc.livejournal.com]

You'd have to take the good with the bad.

[icthyosapiens.livejournal.com]

...naturally.

[nualasilverlanc.livejournal.com]

Do you want to do this now or think on it?

[icthyosapiens.livejournal.com]

I... I need to think about it, actually.

[nualasilverlanc.livejournal.com]

Ofcourse.

[She curls her arms around him, as if seeking to soothe and comfort him]

[icthyosapiens.livejournal.com]

*lets himself be distracted; he's good at putting things aside ~*

[nualasilverlanc.livejournal.com]

[She kisses his shoulder, since that's the only part of him she's tall enough to reach and she's not sure he'd feel about having her lips anywhere near his gills]

You're a very wise man, Abe.

[icthyosapiens.livejournal.com]

*v v good? not that he knows yet ;D*

*damn his lack of proper lips. this is one of those times he knows he's nowhere near good enough--it's true!*

...and when I don't know, I guess. *heh*

[nualasilverlanc.livejournal.com]

[Rawr! Fishy taste XD]

Wise and sweet.

[Another linger kiss on his shoulder]

[icthyosapiens.livejournal.com]

*is cleaaaanfish*

You're more *... what is he saying ???* everything.

*...let's just do the handholding thing again. slightly braver fishie too~*

[nualasilverlanc.livejournal.com]

[Riiight 'cause holding hands is like sex for clairvoyants like these two]

Thank y-

[Cut off when he took her hand in his...and suddenly she's overwhelmed again by a flood of emotions flowing back and forth between the two of them]
