[STOP LOOKING AT HIM. he just keeps holding Kanda's hand, but for once his thoughts aren't broadcasted... instead a little bubble with ellipses hovers over his head,]
[Normally this would be asking a lot of his memory for random strangers, but since he fought all of these people, it's not as hard as it would be.]
The first time... [Apart from Aerith] it was two women and a guy. Those two were far away, so I didn't get a good look at them, but one was blonde and the other had dark hair. The guy had short hair and weird markings on his face and his body... and a tail. Kind of like the hot woman's, but thinner. He fought me most of the time.
The second time... [He already mentioned Laudna and Pickles, so] there was some woman with a... pig thing? [What the fuck was that.] She had short, light hair. And then some other girl who fought me. She had dark hair.
[As for their other questions...
...]
You're the ones who said it wasn't real. [That's. His attempt at reassurance. It's the best he's got. If they really want the details, he'll tell them, but he'll give them one last chance to draw their own conclusions.]
[luckily this is thought share week and not emotion share week so Lavi can't swamp this conversation with an insane amount of dank vibes as Kanda describes these people that he apparently can't recognize -- or remember.
[Don't worry about those guys it's not important totally
His gaze flicks to Lavi again, but only for a second, and he doesn't question the silence.
...Well, he's not sure about after the fight, but:]
I had--an egg. [There's a little animal crossing ? over his head there] But I'm not sure what it was for. I just held it and then we were on the way back here.
[at Yuffie's touch, he smiles briefly -- as if to show he's okay, or maybe it's just his way of trying to seem like he's fine even though what he really wants to do is probably something a stupid teenager boy would do,]
That gets Lavi to look at Kanda, and he looks incredibly ANNOYED, but he turns his gaze away, anger already slipping away because it really is like Kanda to keep key details to himself if he doesn't think they're USEFUL,]
Lavi looks back at Yuffie and shakes his head a little, and then he moves to break apart from their huddle, creating a little distance between him and Kanda.]

[ yuffie's thoughts are still shuttered, and she takes a little breath, but otherwise doesn't seem to have a reaction. ]
What happened to Aerith?
no subject
Did you die the second time?
[is that why he isn't sure?]

no subject
[ but he's right. she takes a breath. it's only been four people, so aerith couldn't have been there ]
Yeah, yeah... you're right. I mean, I'm right. It wasn't real. It was one of those stupid.... trial things. Memory trial things.
Was there more that happened? Or just... fighting?

[I guess that's what brought me back.]
no subject
[ they are probably all huddled anyway but she's shifting closer to lavi to wrap her arm around his. ]
[ she has more questions, but: ]
What are you feeling now? You keep looking at your hand.
no subject
You can't feel it, can you?
[he remembers PINCHING HIM]
no subject
I could earlier. It'll pass.
[Like last time, when it felt like I was drowning sometimes.]
no subject
[ hilariously yuffie almost drowned once so there's a little mental jolt and YIKES that gets across ]
Is it just your hand?
no subject
That gets Lavi to look at Kanda, and he looks incredibly ANNOYED, but he turns his gaze away, anger already slipping away because it really is like Kanda to keep key details to himself if he doesn't think they're USEFUL,]
So that's why you were having trouble breathing.
no subject
It'd be great to answer Yuffie's question, but he pauses and frowns at Lavi before he yanks his hand back.
Who's the weird guy...
Anyway. To Yuffie:]
No. It changes.
no subject
[ Oh shit. she gives lavi an alarmed look like is it getting worse?? ]
Umm.. gimme some examples! Yeah, examples.
no subject
Lavi looks back at Yuffie and shakes his head a little, and then he moves to break apart from their huddle, creating a little distance between him and Kanda.]
I'll get you some water.
[heads off... weird guy out]
no subject
Kanda watches him go like ?? okay sure bye Yuffie's weird friend]
It's all over. Don't fuss. [As long as I'm not really disappearing...]
no subject
You're not. If you're worried about that, just... grab my hand or poke me or something. I'll make sure for you.
[ I'm not fussing, shut up! ]
no subject
Lavi comes back with a glass of water, which he holds out for Kanda,]
Here. You've been talking for a while.
no subject
no subject
He's a weirdo, but you can trust him. ♪ [ (affectionate) ]
[ continues to give lavi concerned looks when kanda isn't looking. drink your water, nerd ]
no subject
I hate this place.]
Yeah! I'm here to help.
[this is so deranged of lavi to do]
no subject
no subject
[ but in between glancing at lavi she's gonna ask some non emo questions ]
Kanda, on your way back, did you see the room? And pick up something gross?
no subject
Yeah, he gave it to me when I dragged him from the swamp.
[He always makes me carry everything...]
It's a heart.
no subject
no subject
My partner and I are wondering if it's connected to where the dead are.
[ Supposedly. ]
