sylvain? ... really?

  you remember being eleven years old, two years before everything went wrong, and not entirely sure who you were yet. the world seemed not quite formed, and glenn stood over you, protective, but his shadow was long. you remember being eleven years old, and watching the sunlight shine through sylvain jose gautier’s hair like a firebrand. you remember, distinctly, your heartrate picking up. you remember, in slow motion, watching his eyes crease as he laughed. you remember a few years before that, you six and he eight, little fingers linked together in a promise that you will not - cannot  - shall not break. you remember, you remember, how your heart skipped and your mouth went dry, and how ingrid had looked at you, all eyes narrowed, like she did at a puzzle or a complicated maths question. you remember knowing, even then.

 even then, you’d known: your circumstances weren’t exactly usual, but boys didn’t marry boys. but your heart had snarled, after glenn had died and he’d draped himself over you after the funeral - after sreng, even as things went wrong - you hadn’t seen each other for so long, five years, you thought, you thought, you thought your feelings might change. you thought - 

   “yeah. i know. i don’t need you to tell me.” a snap - it’s a sensitive topic, even if hilda is only teasing. “we’ve know each other since we were kids. those kinda things - they stick around.” you know.

@deathcrest / starter call.

  “you piss me off.” tone cold, lip curls, eyes narrowed, you stare up at him ( god ! he’s so tall, it’s annoying ! ) and snarl. people have often commented how you’re as much of a skirt chaser as him, but it’s different, okay ? you’re not like him. “how fucking long you gonna keep standing there with that goofy looking smile on your ugly mug, huh?” you can be sweet when you want to be. you do not want to be sweet now.

     help.   that’s  what  sylvain  offered  you.   it’s  true  that  telling  the  TRUTH  of  what  the  church  has  done,   of  crests,   of  fodlan’s  true  history  a  thousand  years  ago  now  will  be  an  arduous  task.   (  one  you  have  thought  on  for  the  past  five  years  while  working  to  restore  order  and  reform  the  church.  )   you’ve  a  long  way  to  go,   and  you’re  so  tired  but  your  work  is  never  done.   (  you  wonder,   briefly  how  it  ever  came  to  this.  )

     ❝  you  were  looking  for  me,   sylvain?  ❞   it’s  almost  reminiscent  of  when  you  first  really  spoke  to  the  youth   (  he’s  not  a  YOUTH  anymore,   now  is  he?   you  forget  how  differently  time  flows  for  humans.   such  short  lives.   no  wonder  they’re  always  in  a  rush.  )   except  now  your  roles  have  REVERSED  in  an  odd  way.   word  must  have  gotten  out  you’re  leaving  garreg  mach  if  he’s  here,   probably  to  catch  you  before  you  become  nigh  impossible  to  track  down.

     it’s  a  coincidence,   is  what  you  initially  thought  when  you  first  laid  eyes  on  yourroster  for  the  semester.   it’s  not  UNCOMMON  for  people  to  be  named  after  historical  figures,   least  of  all  the  full  name.   you’ve  had  plenty  of  students  in  your  class  with  the  same  name  as  you---   and  even  after  your  daughter.   (  which  is  something  you  doubt  you’ll  ever  really  get  use  to.  )   but  when  you  SEE  him  you’re  driven  to  an  intense  feeling  of  deja  vu.

     you’ve  never  put   great  deal  of  faith  into  REINCARNATION.   for  your  people  it  was .  .  .   DIFFERENT.  your  hearts  carry  your  souls  even  past  death,   however  in  order  to  achieve  such  a  thing  would  need  UNETHICAL  experiments.   but  with  HUMANS .  .  .   they  don’t  have  that,   so  this  can’t  be  the  sylvain  you  knew  hundreds  of  years  ago  now.  and  yet  you  feel  twice  as  nostalgic  when  you  see  him  standing  at  the  doorway  of  your  office.   ❝  ah .  .  .   sylvain,   was  it?   are  you  having  any  difficulties  in  my  class?  ❞
