[Hymn #26] [Movement]
[Tear is on break at the cafe. She's out back practicing strikes and blocks with a broom since the manager is making her leave her weapons at home these days (they scare off the costumers, he says). Some of her hair is falling out of her ponytail at this point, and she'll doubtless have to fix it before the manager allows her to go back to waiting tables.
Fighting air isn't quite the same as sparring with Legretta, but at least she can relearn the motions, and at least the movement interrupts her thinking about what Van might be doing back in her own world.]
(I wonder how I can get back. Are hunting down suspicious objects and being present when the island does something strange going to be enough?)
[Swing.]
(Van. What are you up to? Who else have you dragged into this?)
[Swing.]
(I don't understand. Is this "Score" really such a terrible thing? What is it exactly and why do you hate it so much?)
[Swing.]
(I'm so sure there are people around me suffering right now. Rena seemed sad... I need to do something.)
[Swings harder. The motions yanks at the muscles in her arms and forces her to stop.]

I can remember being happy at my king's side, so I can understand any anxiety I might have had at being seperated from him. But, aside from that, being my younger self again left an overall … unpleasant feeling.
*something gave him the feeling he was understating that*

Yes, I understand. I can't say that I think it would be an easy thing to remember.
It seems like the more you know, the less certain you are. This is just from my experience, though.
But at least there were times when you were happy. It's best to focus on the good things when you can, rather than dwelling on the bad things constantly. Hardships will come inevitably. Happy things are far too rare not to take a brief moment to appreciate them fully.
[Would almost tell Fay about what she's remembered about her own childhood, but thinks it's a bad idea.]
