33 [Action/Video]

[mischiefbreeder]

[It was a fairly typical day in Luceti. The weather was starting to improve. Not by much yet, but it was improving. The snow had been starting to melt, it's steadily getting warmer...

...And people were starting to arrive in Luceti again. New faces, old faces, even long-forgotten faces. And on this particular day, it's the second of these that can be spotted passing through the village, as a boy with messy black hair in New Feather garb floats through the plaza seated atop... a strange flying white bird?]

Doesn't look like this place's changed a bit, huh, Togetaro? ...Oh, right, I guess you wouldn't know. Well, whatever! Come on, onward, in that direction! [He gives a forceful point in the direction of the shops. His memories were a bit fuzzy, but he thankfully remembered enough to know how to get back to the village and get his stuff.]

[After retrieving his things, Gold decides to hit up the journal.]

So, how long was I gone from this place? And you guys better not've given away my room, you hear me?

[There's a long pause before she shakes her head, clenching her eyes shut.] It's not fair at all.

[action]

[mischiefbreeder]

[Shush let him work his magic, Silver. He'll let you know when it's time.] Just let it all out, Crys. It's better to get it out instead of lettin' it consume you.

[action]

[kickingcatcher]

[She's honestly finding it a bit strange that Gold is being so... nice. But right now, she doesn't care to ask.] I know he didn't like it here that much, but we were all together, so it was okay. It felt right.

[action]

[mischiefbreeder]

[Wow rude. Gold's good at being heartfelt!]

Well, you know... We'll just have to keep him in our hearts. Maybe he'll come back someday, like I did! [SILVER THAT'S YOUR CUE.]

[action]

[tsuntrader]

[And then he pokes his head into the room.]

How long have I been missing?

[tsuntrader]

[How long have we been missing?]

[kickingcatcher]

[She was going to answer that.

But Silver came in. And that takes priority right now.] Silver?! You're back? But I thought-- [Oh god, her head.]

[mischiefbreeder]

[Gold tries to look surprised.] Silver?!

[tsuntrader]

[...?

??

SILVER is confused!]

[kickingcatcher]

[GOLD DON'T EVEN. YOU ARE GETTING A KICK TO THE FACE.] Don't even try to deny you knew he was there!

[SO PISSED RN]

[mischiefbreeder]

[tsuntrader]

[Nope backing up not gonna get kicked nope]

[kickingcatcher]

Oh no you don't. [YOU ARE GETTING A KICK TO THE FACE, TOO.] Why didn't you come out? I went and said all those things!

[mischiefbreeder]

[Gold backs up now, chuckling as her reaction.]

Hahaha... Sorry, Crys, but it would've been way crueler to have him show up right as you started feelin' things over his departure!

[tsuntrader]

[...Ow.]

[kickingcatcher]

I think I hate you. [1000% done with your shit, Kyo. SO DONE.] I would much rather have seen Silver.

[mischiefbreeder]

After you were about to have a breakdown over him bein' gone?

[tsuntrader]

[...Silver puts a hand on Gold's shoulder. Hey. You're going a little too far here.]

[kickingcatcher]

I wasn't going to have a breakdown.

[mischiefbreeder]

[He goes to say something, but feels the weight of Silver's hand on his shoulder. Yeah... Maybe he should back off.

Or at least explain himself.]

...Sorry, Crys. I just didn't want to force you to switch gears so suddenly like that. Once you start feelin' sadness like that, you can't just... wave it away or brush it off. You've gotta let it go.

Besides, I thought it might do Silver good to hear those kind words.

[tsuntrader]

Not at the expense of making Crys upset. [His words are accompanied by a smack to the back of Gold's head.]

[kickingcatcher]

[There's a silent thank you to Silver for that.] I'm with Silver on this. I would've been fine if you said he was here.

[mischiefbreeder]

Alright, alright, I said I'm sorry, geez!

[tsuntrader]

[It's over then, right? No point in beating a dead Ponyta.]

You never answered my question. [Time to change the subject.]

[kickingcatcher]

[So done with you two. Crys stands there with her arms crossed, a displeased look at Gold before answering Silver.] I don't even think you were gone for a day. Maybe just a few hours or something.
