[One day while in the NVA, Isla would see a person that had galaxy inspired everything walking around with a cane which seems to be helping them walk. The person has long purple galaxy hair which is pulled up into a half bun situation, they have glowing pink eyes, a button up shirt which has different flowers and stuff in pinks and purples and blues with gold outlining accents, white dress pants, black boots and these void like markings on their hands and some of their chest. They feel familiar and feel just- safe.]

[Isla's reading when she spots voi. She watches them from her room before carefully walking to follow]

[retired-voids]

[Voi is in the kitchen, restocking foods that Kinaxus has made. When she enters, they speak softly]

"Hello dear"

[wilted-blue-petals]

...Hi-

[retired-voids]

[Void finishes putting everything away and looks at her, something in their eyes seems soft]

"Any reason why you followed me? And I do promise I'm not upset at you for doing so"

[wilted-blue-petals]

You look.. familiar? Sorry if that seems strange-

[retired-voids]

"No- no it doesn't. I'm one of Fable's parents, as well as Netherum's. I'm their pa, or parent, depending on which of my four children you speak to"

[wilted-blue-petals]

Neth, Fable, Enderian, and..who else? I can't recall-

[retired-voids]

"Alerion, dear"

[wilted-blue-petals]

Ah, yes.. sorry, my memory is not the greatest

[retired-voids]

"I've heard dear Isla, I do not mind"

[wilted-blue-petals]

You've.. heard?

[retired-voids]

[Voi smiles a little, it keeps feeling..safe..and just more welcoming each time]

"I do talk to my children, and I do visit the nether often"

[wilted-blue-petals]

Y-yeah, that makes sense-

[retired-voids]

".. I am also aware of what my son has been doing, he gained the ability to mess with memories while he was a young teenager. I do not understand it"

[Voi offers one of the meals Kinaxus had made]

"Would you want one dear?"

[wilted-blue-petals]

No thanks, I ate earlier..

[called-to-the-darkness]

[A bit after Soul's nightmare, Isla would run into her wherever she is, looking concerned at seeing Soul's state]

@wilted-blue-petals

[She's still kinda trying to breathe but looks at the other]

H-hey- hi-

[wilted-blue-petals]

Are you alright? I caught a glimpse of you running out in a panic-

[called-to-the-darkness]

I- y-yeah- mhm-

[She moves so she's leaning and then sitting against the wall, moving to put her head down]

[wilted-blue-petals]

...May I sit?

[called-to-the-darkness]

Y-yeah- you can

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla carefully sits beside her, having her hands in her lap. Soul can notice that Isla's wedding ring isn't on her finger, but faint bruising can be seen on her wrists]

Nightmare?

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She peeks her head back up after a moment as her breathing is a little bit better flames down and notices both]

Y-yeah.....nightmare

[wilted-blue-petals]

What was it about, if you'd like to share?

[called-to-the-darkness]

Random fighting people memories and just.....bad reminder right now

[wilted-blue-petals]

...I get those, too. I'm sorry

[called-to-the-darkness]

It's not you're fault

[wilted-blue-petals]

Still..

[called-to-the-darkness]

Mhm.... It's okay

[wilted-blue-petals]

...Can I do anything to help?

[called-to-the-darkness]

.....a hug might actually help-

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla opens her arms]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She hugs her, it does help her actually calm down a bit more and also makes Isla remember something]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla starts to remember pieces from when she was younger, when she first got together with Fable. She remembers being friends with Soul before everything went wrong. Isla tears up and hugs Soul tighter]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Hey- woah you okay?

[wilted-blue-petals]

[She pulls away and holds Soul's face in her hands]

Soul..?

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She does lean into it]

Yeah?

....wait- you remember?

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla breaks into a smile]

Soul- I remember you-

[called-to-the-darkness]

I-Isla oh my god-

[wilted-blue-petals]

W-we were friends before.. Fable happened-

[called-to-the-darkness]

Y-yeah- yeah we were-

[wilted-blue-petals]

You were trying to warn me about him- I didn't listen..

[called-to-the-darkness]

I.....yeah I did, I....dont blame you for not listening

[wilted-blue-petals]

I'm still sorry..

[called-to-the-darkness]

Get back in this hug-

[Soul moves to hug her again]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla smiles and hugs back]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She stays like that for a little bit]

I missed you....

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla takes Soul's hand and smiles]

I missed you, too

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She smiled as she does]

You don't have you're ring on

[wilted-blue-petals]

Yeah, I took it off before I left Fable- put it in his hand, it was kinda funny in hindsight

[called-to-the-darkness]

You left?

[wilted-blue-petals]

Mhm.. I'm staying here

[called-to-the-darkness]

Okay- okay good- here is safer

[wilted-blue-petals]

Can I tell you about what happened?

[called-to-the-darkness]

Yeah- yes what happened?

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla goes on to tell Soul about everything that happened with Fable; him showing her Rae, the argument, him grabbing her, memories returning, and her running away. She holds Soul's hand tightly during it all, grounding herself]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Oh Isla....

[wilted-blue-petals]

I'm away and okay now.. and- Neth.. told me about things- my life that I can't remember..

[called-to-the-darkness]

....I'm glad he knows and that he did

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla instinctively rests her forehead on Soul's, sighing]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She smiles]

I'm glad your away and safe

[wilted-blue-petals]

I'm glad I'm here with you..

[called-to-the-darkness]

I'm glad you remember me

[wilted-blue-petals]

Me, too..

[called-to-the-darkness]

[Soul runs a finger over her knuckle, content, calm happy]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla seems to relax at the soothing touch. She can't remember the last time she felt this from Fable..]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She looks at the other occasionally, not for too long but happy to see her relaxed]

[wilted-blue-petals]

...I've missed this

[called-to-the-darkness]

Me too...

You wanna move off the ground to like- a couch or something?

[wilted-blue-petals]

Mhm- that'd be comfy

[called-to-the-darkness]

Okay up

[She gets up and helps her up]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla stands and brushes her skirt off]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Onwardddd

[She takes her hand again, leading the both of them]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla giggles and follows Soul]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She leads the both of them to one of the couchee and then pulls her back down to sit next to her]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla sits close to her, still holding her hand]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Better then the floor-

[wilted-blue-petals]

Definitely- better on the knees

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She giggles a small bit]

Yeah, didn't think you were that old

[wilted-blue-petals]

Shut up- I have bad bones-

[called-to-the-darkness]

Neverrrrr-

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla playfully shoves Soul]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Hey be nice to me

[She pouts a little as she does the same back]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[She giggles and does it again]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Hey-

[She smiles, doing it back at her]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla tries to do it again, but she slips and accidentally shoves herself on top of Soul]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Ah-

[Her face goes just slightly pink but then doesn't move for a moment]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla just looks down at her, face also dusting a light pink. She pushes herself up after a moment]

I'm so sorry- that was an accident-

[called-to-the-darkness]

Hey it's okay, I know

[wilted-blue-petals]

I didn't mean to-

[called-to-the-darkness]

Hey, I know it's okay

[wilted-blue-petals]

You sure..?

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She holds one of Isla's hands again]

Promise

[wilted-blue-petals]

Promise..

[called-to-the-darkness]

Pinky promise

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla smiles softly]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[Soul smiles back]

[wilted-blue-petals]

...I've missed your smile

[called-to-the-darkness]

I-I've missed yours, and seeing you happy

[wilted-blue-petals]

I've just missed you

[called-to-the-darkness]

Y-yeah-? Me too

[Soul moves and arm around her]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla goes a bit pink and smiles, shifting to rest her head on Soul's chest]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[Her in turn face goes slightly pink as she does but doesn't move]

[wilted-blue-petals]

You're comfy

[called-to-the-darkness]

Y-yeah-? Am I?

[wilted-blue-petals]

You are- always have been

[called-to-the-darkness]

Huh- good to know-

[wilted-blue-petals]

Don't use that against me-

[called-to-the-darkness]

You're the one who said I was comfy, I'm just gonna keep it in the back of my mind if you ever need comfort-

[wilted-blue-petals]

You flatter me- I'm not worth all that

[called-to-the-darkness]

Well I think you are

[wilted-blue-petals]

...Why?

[called-to-the-darkness]

Because I....care a lot about you and you deserve to feel safe despite everything that's ever happened to you

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla gives Soul a soft smile]

[called-to-the-darkness]

You do, I think your really do

[wilted-blue-petals]

Thank you, Soul..

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She smiles]

Course Isla

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla's eyes linger on Soul's smile for just a moment too long before she looks away]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[A bit after Soul's nightmare, Isla would run into her wherever she is, looking concerned at seeing Soul's state]

[wilted-blue-petals]

You are- always have been

[called-to-the-darkness]

Huh- good to know-

[wilted-blue-petals]

Don't use that against me-

[called-to-the-darkness]

You're the one who said I was comfy, I'm just gonna keep it in the back of my mind if you ever need comfort-

[wilted-blue-petals]

You flatter me- I'm not worth all that

[called-to-the-darkness]

Well I think you are

[wilted-blue-petals]

...Why?

[called-to-the-darkness]

Because I....care a lot about you and you deserve to feel safe despite everything that's ever happened to you

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla gives Soul a soft smile]

[called-to-the-darkness]

You do, I think your really do

[wilted-blue-petals]

Thank you, Soul..

[called-to-the-darkness]

[A bit after Soul's nightmare, Isla would run into her wherever she is, looking concerned at seeing Soul's state]

@wilted-blue-petals

[She's still kinda trying to breathe but looks at the other]

H-hey- hi-

[wilted-blue-petals]

Are you alright? I caught a glimpse of you running out in a panic-

[called-to-the-darkness]

I- y-yeah- mhm-

[She moves so she's leaning and then sitting against the wall, moving to put her head down]

[wilted-blue-petals]

...May I sit?

[called-to-the-darkness]

Y-yeah- you can

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla carefully sits beside her, having her hands in her lap. Soul can notice that Isla's wedding ring isn't on her finger, but faint bruising can be seen on her wrists]

Nightmare?

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She peeks her head back up after a moment as her breathing is a little bit better flames down and notices both]

Y-yeah.....nightmare

[wilted-blue-petals]

What was it about, if you'd like to share?

[called-to-the-darkness]

Random fighting people memories and just.....bad reminder right now

[wilted-blue-petals]

...I get those, too. I'm sorry

[called-to-the-darkness]

It's not you're fault

[wilted-blue-petals]

Still..

[called-to-the-darkness]

Mhm.... It's okay

[wilted-blue-petals]

...Can I do anything to help?

[called-to-the-darkness]

.....a hug might actually help-

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla opens her arms]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She hugs her, it does help her actually calm down a bit more and also makes Isla remember something]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla starts to remember pieces from when she was younger, when she first got together with Fable. She remembers being friends with Soul before everything went wrong. Isla tears up and hugs Soul tighter]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Hey- woah you okay?

[wilted-blue-petals]

[She pulls away and holds Soul's face in her hands]

Soul..?

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She does lean into it]

Yeah?

....wait- you remember?

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla breaks into a smile]

Soul- I remember you-

[called-to-the-darkness]

I-Isla oh my god-

[wilted-blue-petals]

W-we were friends before.. Fable happened-

[called-to-the-darkness]

Y-yeah- yeah we were-

[wilted-blue-petals]

You were trying to warn me about him- I didn't listen..

[called-to-the-darkness]

I.....yeah I did, I....dont blame you for not listening

[wilted-blue-petals]

I'm still sorry..

[called-to-the-darkness]

Get back in this hug-

[Soul moves to hug her again]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla smiles and hugs back]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She stays like that for a little bit]

I missed you....

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla takes Soul's hand and smiles]

I missed you, too

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She smiled as she does]

You don't have you're ring on

[wilted-blue-petals]

Yeah, I took it off before I left Fable- put it in his hand, it was kinda funny in hindsight

[called-to-the-darkness]

You left?

[wilted-blue-petals]

Mhm.. I'm staying here

[called-to-the-darkness]

Okay- okay good- here is safer

[wilted-blue-petals]

Can I tell you about what happened?

[called-to-the-darkness]

Yeah- yes what happened?

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla goes on to tell Soul about everything that happened with Fable; him showing her Rae, the argument, him grabbing her, memories returning, and her running away. She holds Soul's hand tightly during it all, grounding herself]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Oh Isla....

[wilted-blue-petals]

I'm away and okay now.. and- Neth.. told me about things- my life that I can't remember..

[called-to-the-darkness]

....I'm glad he knows and that he did

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla instinctively rests her forehead on Soul's, sighing]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She smiles]

I'm glad your away and safe

[wilted-blue-petals]

I'm glad I'm here with you..

[called-to-the-darkness]

I'm glad you remember me

[wilted-blue-petals]

Me, too..

[called-to-the-darkness]

[Soul runs a finger over her knuckle, content, calm happy]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla seems to relax at the soothing touch. She can't remember the last time she felt this from Fable..]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She looks at the other occasionally, not for too long but happy to see her relaxed]

[wilted-blue-petals]

...I've missed this

[called-to-the-darkness]

Me too...

You wanna move off the ground to like- a couch or something?

[wilted-blue-petals]

Mhm- that'd be comfy

[called-to-the-darkness]

Okay up

[She gets up and helps her up]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla stands and brushes her skirt off]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Onwardddd

[She takes her hand again, leading the both of them]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla giggles and follows Soul]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She leads the both of them to one of the couchee and then pulls her back down to sit next to her]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla sits close to her, still holding her hand]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Better then the floor-

[wilted-blue-petals]

Definitely- better on the knees

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She giggles a small bit]

Yeah, didn't think you were that old

[wilted-blue-petals]

Shut up- I have bad bones-

[called-to-the-darkness]

Neverrrrr-

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla playfully shoves Soul]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Hey be nice to me

[She pouts a little as she does the same back]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[She giggles and does it again]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Hey-

[She smiles, doing it back at her]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla tries to do it again, but she slips and accidentally shoves herself on top of Soul]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Ah-

[Her face goes just slightly pink but then doesn't move for a moment]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla just looks down at her, face also dusting a light pink. She pushes herself up after a moment]

I'm so sorry- that was an accident-

[called-to-the-darkness]

Hey it's okay, I know

[wilted-blue-petals]

I didn't mean to-

[called-to-the-darkness]

Hey, I know it's okay

[wilted-blue-petals]

You sure..?

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She holds one of Isla's hands again]

Promise

[wilted-blue-petals]

Promise..

[called-to-the-darkness]

Pinky promise

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla smiles softly]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[Soul smiles back]

[wilted-blue-petals]

...I've missed your smile

[called-to-the-darkness]

I-I've missed yours, and seeing you happy

[wilted-blue-petals]

I've just missed you

[called-to-the-darkness]

Y-yeah-? Me too

[Soul moves and arm around her]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla goes a bit pink and smiles, shifting to rest her head on Soul's chest]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[Her in turn face goes slightly pink as she does but doesn't move]

[wilted-blue-petals]

You're comfy

[called-to-the-darkness]

Y-yeah-? Am I?

[wilted-blue-petals]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Random fighting people memories and just.....bad reminder right now

[wilted-blue-petals]

...I get those, too. I'm sorry

[called-to-the-darkness]

It's not you're fault

[wilted-blue-petals]

Still..

[called-to-the-darkness]

Mhm.... It's okay

[wilted-blue-petals]

...Can I do anything to help?

[called-to-the-darkness]

.....a hug might actually help-

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla opens her arms]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She hugs her, it does help her actually calm down a bit more and also makes Isla remember something]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla starts to remember pieces from when she was younger, when she first got together with Fable. She remembers being friends with Soul before everything went wrong. Isla tears up and hugs Soul tighter]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Hey- woah you okay?

[wilted-blue-petals]

[She pulls away and holds Soul's face in her hands]

Soul..?

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She does lean into it]

Yeah?

....wait- you remember?

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla breaks into a smile]

Soul- I remember you-

[called-to-the-darkness]

I-Isla oh my god-

[wilted-blue-petals]

W-we were friends before.. Fable happened-

[called-to-the-darkness]

Y-yeah- yeah we were-

[wilted-blue-petals]

You were trying to warn me about him- I didn't listen..

[called-to-the-darkness]

I.....yeah I did, I....dont blame you for not listening

[wilted-blue-petals]

I'm still sorry..

[called-to-the-darkness]

Get back in this hug-

[Soul moves to hug her again]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla smiles and hugs back]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She stays like that for a little bit]

I missed you....

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla takes Soul's hand and smiles]

I missed you, too

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She smiled as she does]

You don't have you're ring on

[wilted-blue-petals]

Yeah, I took it off before I left Fable- put it in his hand, it was kinda funny in hindsight

[called-to-the-darkness]

You left?

[wilted-blue-petals]

Mhm.. I'm staying here

[called-to-the-darkness]

Okay- okay good- here is safer

[wilted-blue-petals]

Can I tell you about what happened?

[called-to-the-darkness]

Yeah- yes what happened?

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla goes on to tell Soul about everything that happened with Fable; him showing her Rae, the argument, him grabbing her, memories returning, and her running away. She holds Soul's hand tightly during it all, grounding herself]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Oh Isla....

[wilted-blue-petals]

I'm away and okay now.. and- Neth.. told me about things- my life that I can't remember..

[called-to-the-darkness]

....I'm glad he knows and that he did

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla instinctively rests her forehead on Soul's, sighing]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She smiles]

I'm glad your away and safe

[wilted-blue-petals]

I'm glad I'm here with you..

[called-to-the-darkness]

I'm glad you remember me

[wilted-blue-petals]

Me, too..

[called-to-the-darkness]

[Soul runs a finger over her knuckle, content, calm happy]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla seems to relax at the soothing touch. She can't remember the last time she felt this from Fable..]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She looks at the other occasionally, not for too long but happy to see her relaxed]

[wilted-blue-petals]

...I've missed this

[called-to-the-darkness]

Me too...

You wanna move off the ground to like- a couch or something?

[wilted-blue-petals]

Mhm- that'd be comfy

[called-to-the-darkness]

Okay up

[She gets up and helps her up]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla stands and brushes her skirt off]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Onwardddd

[She takes her hand again, leading the both of them]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla giggles and follows Soul]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She leads the both of them to one of the couchee and then pulls her back down to sit next to her]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla sits close to her, still holding her hand]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Better then the floor-

[wilted-blue-petals]

Definitely- better on the knees

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She giggles a small bit]

Yeah, didn't think you were that old

[wilted-blue-petals]

Shut up- I have bad bones-

[called-to-the-darkness]

Neverrrrr-

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla playfully shoves Soul]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Hey be nice to me

[She pouts a little as she does the same back]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[She giggles and does it again]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Hey-

[She smiles, doing it back at her]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla tries to do it again, but she slips and accidentally shoves herself on top of Soul]

[called-to-the-darkness]

Ah-

[Her face goes just slightly pink but then doesn't move for a moment]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla just looks down at her, face also dusting a light pink. She pushes herself up after a moment]

I'm so sorry- that was an accident-

[called-to-the-darkness]

Hey it's okay, I know

[wilted-blue-petals]

I didn't mean to-

[called-to-the-darkness]

Hey, I know it's okay

[wilted-blue-petals]

You sure..?

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She holds one of Isla's hands again]

Promise

[wilted-blue-petals]

Promise..

[called-to-the-darkness]

Pinky promise

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla smiles softly]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[Soul smiles back]

[wilted-blue-petals]

...I've missed your smile

[called-to-the-darkness]

I-I've missed yours, and seeing you happy

[wilted-blue-petals]

I've just missed you

[called-to-the-darkness]

Y-yeah-? Me too

[Soul moves and arm around her]

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla goes a bit pink and smiles, shifting to rest her head on Soul's chest]

[called-to-the-darkness]

[Her in turn face goes slightly pink as she does but doesn't move]

[wilted-blue-petals]

You're comfy

[called-to-the-darkness]

Y-yeah-? Am I?

[wilted-blue-petals]

You are- always have been

[called-to-the-darkness]

Huh- good to know-

[wilted-blue-petals]

Don't use that against me-

[called-to-the-darkness]

[A bit after Soul's nightmare, Isla would run into her wherever she is, looking concerned at seeing Soul's state]

@wilted-blue-petals

[She's still kinda trying to breathe but looks at the other]

H-hey- hi-

[wilted-blue-petals]

Are you alright? I caught a glimpse of you running out in a panic-

[called-to-the-darkness]

I- y-yeah- mhm-

[She moves so she's leaning and then sitting against the wall, moving to put her head down]

[wilted-blue-petals]

...May I sit?

[called-to-the-darkness]

Y-yeah- you can

[wilted-blue-petals]

[Isla carefully sits beside her, having her hands in her lap. Soul can notice that Isla's wedding ring isn't on her finger, but faint bruising can be seen on her wrists]

Nightmare?

[called-to-the-darkness]

[She peeks her head back up after a moment as her breathing is a little bit better flames down and notices both]

Y-yeah.....nightmare

[wilted-blue-petals]

What was it about, if you'd like to share?

[called-to-the-darkness]

Random fighting people memories and just.....bad reminder right now

[wilted-blue-petals]
