[He honestly doesn't remember... Now Yuan's left with a bit of a predicament. He can't just ignore an innocent boy, but if Mithos remembers his days as a young child once this passes, Yuan will hear about it.

Well, the least he can do is answer Mithos's questions.]

... Yes, I can. That's no problem for me.

[action - December 20th]

[Hm, he doesn't seem as happy as Mithos thought he would be to know there's another half-elf here. He didn't seem like he wanted to talk about it much, and he figures that it's because he's afraid of people not liking him. Mithos understands what that's like.]

Don't worry, I don't think anybody here really minds. They're all really nice.

[action - December 20th]

[fortunefail]

[When Yuan was young, meeting another half-elf was a rare treat. Now he's grown incredibly indifferent towards it. What he can still sympathize with, though, is the fear that humans around him will reject him for being a half-elf. The fear of ending up all alone.]

They are. The people here are all very accepting.

[He takes a few more steps closer to Mithos, before sinking into a crouching position to make better eye contact.]

My name is Yuan. And you are?

[action - December 20th]

[imasapling.livejournal.com]

[Oh, it looks like that made him feel better. That's good.]

I'm Mithos!

[action - December 20th]

[fortunefail]

[It's so difficult for Yuan to keep smiling, knowing what this boy will grow up to be, but... He has to try. He has to bear in mind that this boy isn't Yggdrasill. If anything, he's closer to Mithos the Hero.]

It's good to meet you, Mithos. Are you new to this village?

[action - December 20th]

[imasapling.livejournal.com]

I'm a 'new feather'. [That's the word Grune told him. It's kinda funny, but maybe that's just normal for this village.] I've only been here a few days.

[action - December 20th]

[fortunefail]

Is that so? Are you adjusting well?

[action - December 20th] 1/2

[imasapling.livejournal.com]

Yeah...

[action - December 20th]

[imasapling.livejournal.com]

I really, really, really miss my sister, though. [he shuffles his feet in the snow]

[action - December 20th]

[fortunefail]

[Figures that Mithos would miss Martel most of all. Yuan isn't entirely certain what to say to this, though. Or if it's even his place to say anything.]

... Don't worry. I'm sure you'll be able to return to her soon enough.

[action - December 20th]

[imasapling.livejournal.com]

I think it would be better to just live here. If my sister came here, I mean... People are a lot nicer. [he even has friends. 8|a]

[action - December 20th]

[fortunefail]

[Yuan would argue with that and mention the experiments, but there's no point in spooking the kid. That'll only make Mithos resent him more when this is over. He needs to just smile and nod along.]

Hm... Well, who knows? If your sister can find her way here as well, perhaps it'll happen.

[action - December 20th]

[imasapling.livejournal.com]

I hope she can... [Martel probably misses him as much as he misses her. He doesn't like his sister to be sad.]

[action - December 20th]

[fortunefail]

... Are you staying with someone friendly for now?

[action - December 20th]

[imasapling.livejournal.com]

Uh-huh! [He points toward the flower shop, where Kaori is.]

[fortunefail]

((OOC: Aaand then the subject lines were removed.))

[Yuan has no clue what he means by pointing at the flower shop, but he decides not to ask. He shouldn't be too nosy. The more questions he asks and the longer the conversation lasts, the angrier Mithos will be in a week or two.]

Good. Then, I'll be on my way. [And he begins pushing himself to his feet again.]

[imasapling.livejournal.com]

[OOC: enable custom comment pages. It reverts to the old style of posting, just with...custom colors and such. It's an improvement to LJ's so-called "improvements", trust me.]

[...Oh. His face falls. He was really excited to actually meet another half-elf for the first time, because his mother doesn't let him talk to the other ones who live in their town...and now Yuan's leaving. He looks up at him. 8(]

W-Where are you gonna go?

[fortunefail]

[OOC: sob this looks so terrible. I hope LJ will undo this change soon.]

[Did he just make Mithos sad? Damn, he just made Mithos sad.]

I'm... going home.

[imasapling.livejournal.com]

[OOC: I think the "Minimalism" styles look the least ugly, if that helps at all.]

[He looks down and kicks at the snow a little.] But isn't it nice out here?

[fortunefail]

... It's rather cold, don't you think?

[Cold like Yuan has to be, because if he's too nice to Mithos now, there may be repercussions.]

[imasapling.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but I got mittens and a coat and a scarf, so it isn't that bad. [Lifting up the ends of his scarf for Yuan to see. See how warm he can be? 8U]

[fortunefail]

[He sees it. Yes.]

Yes, well, I'm going inside anyway. You should do the same, once you're done playing.

[imasapling.livejournal.com]

[He drops the ends of his scarf again.] ...Okay, Yuan. [He'll just...play here by himself. Until Kaori is done with the plants, and she likes to spends lots of time with the plants.]

[fortunefail]

[That sad face is just horrible. It's making Yuan's stomach clench with mild guilt.]

... Take care of yourself.

[imasapling.livejournal.com]

Okay...

It was nice meeting you. I don't know any other half-elves, except for my sister.
