The Vent Dweller

I dwell in ventilation shafts. all of them.

[vent-dweller-offical]

My name is Leto. I am a being of the vents, one who watches, one who observes.

He/they

From the nearest vent, shadows swirled slightly.

"Macey? Happy birthday."

( @vent-dweller-offical )

(this takes place tomorrow i just don't want to forget.)

*stunned and wary*

…Leto?

[vent-dweller-offical]

"Yes."

He seemed to hesitate, then formed outside of the vent.

[backstory-character-offical]

*eyes him*

Why did you say you came here?

[vent-dweller-offical]

"It.. was your birthday, was it not?"

[backstory-character-offical]

(We can still say it is her birthday on this thread)

Um…

*looks at him for a long moment*

Yeah…it is…

[vent-dweller-offical]

(awesome.)

"That is why. It is customary for humans to celebrate their birthdays."

[backstory-character-offical]

*looks at him blankly*

It…is…

But I don’t know if I’m human anymore…

[vent-dweller-offical]

"You are not. But it still seems appropriate."

[backstory-character-offical]

You forgot me.

[vent-dweller-offical]

"From what I have been able to find out, I was forced to. But I also trusted you. I have not remembered, and for that I am sorry."

[backstory-character-offical]

*emotionlessly*

I know. It was my fault.

[vent-dweller-offical]

"That is not true, either. I know that is not true."

[backstory-character-offical]

*matter-of-factly, folding arms and looking away*

No. It was. Maybe not intentionally, but I confronted No One about him hurting you and that led him to do something to you, which caused you to forget. That’s it.

[vent-dweller-offical]

(Macey.. he would've done so anyway..)

"He had plans to do so anyway. You did not affect those plans. At least from what I have been able to tell."

[backstory-character-offical]

Oh. That’s good to know.

*sighs*

Thanks for coming, anyway.

[vent-dweller-offical]

(He cares about you, Macey, even if he won't admit it.)

"I'm glad to see you."

[backstory-character-offical]

From the nearest vent, shadows swirled slightly.

"Macey? Happy birthday."

[aira-offical]

Bloodfruit appeared in the treehouse by the nearest vent to Aira- Leto had noticed the treehouse was where they seemed to be, and that Aira was running low. He didn't speak, but he did stay in the vent for a moment.

( @vent-dweller-offical )

Decided to pay a visit, did you?

[vent-dweller-offical]

"I've been around.

I.. looked for a way to restore my memory. I have not found one yet. I'm sorry."

[aira-offical]

Don't be. Not your fault.

[vent-dweller-offical]

"I can see how it affects people. I wish it didn't. So I am sorry."

[aira-offical]

Still not your fault.

[vent-dweller-offical]

"No. It is not.

The person who is currently in control of No-One's form confirmed what happened. And denied my request to return my memory."

[aira-offical]

Ah. Why so?

[vent-dweller-offical]

"Likely for the same reason I was made to forget in the first place."

[aira-offical]

I see..

[vent-dweller-offical]

"I'm.. working on it. I'll figure something out."

[aira-offical]

Alright. Do let me know if there's any way I can help.

[vent-dweller-offical]

"Alright.

... These are ripe.. right?"

He asked, referring to the bloodfruit he had delivered.

[aira-offical]

She takes a look at them.

Yeah. Thanks a lot.

She smiles at him.

[vent-dweller-offical]

"I am glad. I can bring you more, when you need."

[aira-offical]

That's kind of you. Thanks.

[vent-dweller-offical]

"It's no problem. Glad to help."

[aira-offical]

She smiles warmly at him.

[vent-dweller-offical]

His shadows swirled, reminiscent of a smile in return.
