When: June 19th, after this thread
Rating: PG. Maybe PG-13 for mention of things occurred over the event.
Summary: After a particularly rough event, Fai and Sheena decide a walk might help them both.
the Story:

Fai headed downstairs rather quickly. The past few days had been...rough, to say the very least. Filled to the brim with guilt and remorse, with regret and grieving, even if the person in question had been restored to life, and even if things were fine now. Guilt was still eating at Fai, for things he hadn't said, and for things that he had done.

But more importantly, he was not the only one who had gone through a terrible time recently. There was Sheena, who had been fooled into pregnancy by the mansion, only to have it be taken away at the end. It made him feel a tiny bit bad for the joking that had gone on before the event, when there would in fact be no baby shower at all. Rationally he knew he probably shouldn't have felt bad about that, given the timing, but Fai was in a strange space from his own experience with the event, where it was very difficult not to take any blame.

So, knowing this, and knowing that she must have been hurting terribly, he wasted no time going downstairs to meet her, and made sure he had a wide smile waiting for her.

The moment she had finished suggesting the walk, Sheena had up and left the painful reminder that the room held in her mind and didn't even bother to put on the large pink obi she normally wore -- or her gloves for that matter. Not that she was against showing Zelos her weaker side (after all, he was her husband), but, today of all days was just... something she wanted to forget.

Talking to Fai always seemed to make her feel better -- even if it involved the smallest of things. The way he acted sometimes made her feel like he had become a brother she never had and it was comforting to say the least. After quickly making her way down the stairs, she waited while leaning against a wall close to the large wooden doors of the entrance way to to the mansion.

Sheena crossed her arms over her chest and had only a moment to wait before she heard Fai's familiar steps walking down the grand staircase and into the main foyer. "Hey Fai." The smile on her face is weak and a little forced, but all the same it's the right thing to do.

" Hi Sheena," Fai said. Admittedly, his own smile was a bit weak, but who's smile wouldn't be, after the things that had happened to them? He waved though, and approached her. " I hope I didn't keep you waiting."

Sheena was very dear to Fai. As long as he had known her, Sheena had been someone Fai could go to, with his worries. She was someone who had accepted him, no, had forgiven him for the terrible things he had done, and was someone he still confided in when he needed to. To a degree, he could with Kurogane as well, especially now, but previously Sheena had been the only one to know Fai's secrets. They were close, like siblings. Like family.

" So, shall we go?" Fai asked. It was intended to be a walk after all, and it would probably be best to be away from the hustle and bustle of the mansion anyway.

"Nah. I just got here." Came the response. Sheena pushed herself off the wall to stand next to companion. Idly, she straightened the bottom of her purple top and patted it down before reaching behind with her right arm to clasp her left elbow from behind.

Her chestnut eyes glanced around the somewhat empty foyer and sighed softly. It wouldn't put it past her if the rest of the mansion was holed up in their rooms after what had transpired.

"Yeah.. yeah lets go." Sheena turned herself back around and grasped the doorknob of the door, pushing it open and walking out into the summer evening air.

Fai followed her out the large entranceway and out into the cool evening. It was somewhat quiet, as it was getting a bit late for some, and there was no one in direct sight.

" It's a nice night, tonight," Fai said after a moment, searching for something to break that silence. And it was nice. Fai had never done well in sweltering weather.

But the quiet wasn't so bad. Not really. Though silence brought unwanted thoughts to mind, especially when one was trying not to think about them too hard. It wasn't so hard to talk either, Fai had discovered. It was just difficult to get started, that was all.

"Yeah... it is." Came Sheena's quiet answer as she glanced around. It really was quiet and peaceful. It almost reminded her of the nights that she spent back in Mizuho when the night was clear and all she could hear were the chirping bugs in Gaoracchia Forest and the calming rush of the creek close by.

She glanced at Fai from the corner of her eyes, just to look at him, and smiled gently at him before glancing back up at the moon, "Hey Fai. When you started traveling to other words, did you ever have quiet nights like this?"

" Mm, I did," Fai said, a small smile appearing as he remembered. " There were some worlds where we didn't have the time, or where you wouldn't want to be outside, especially after dark, but...there were plenty that had wonderful nights like this to make up for it."

In the world he was from though, Celes, Fai had not had nice, quiet nights outside. It was far too cold at night for that, no matter what time of year it was, far too dangerous for standing around outside looking at the starts and moon.

Ah, but that was then and this was now, and this was a beautiful night indeed.
