[they nod, taking a bite of the roll.]

Hope doesn't come easily, so it's good to hold onto it when it does.

[evocationary]

[she is very happy that they eat the cinnamon roll, by the way.]

Yeah, you're right. [...] You wanna walk with me through the Realm? Have you been over there?

[guestservices]

[sweets!]

I haven't had a chance yet, no. I'd be glad to.

[evocationary]

Neat. Let's go, then? Have you heard anything about it at all?

[guestservices]

[headtilt]

Something about a town and a castle...?

[evocationary]

Yeah. It's very storybook.

... I'm weirdly attached to it? Like, uh - I have memories of being there.

[guestservices]

Ah. [they nod.] Relatively pleasant memories, I hope.

[evocationary]

Uhhh.

[she waggles her hand in the air.] Some good, some bad. Mostly good. A couple of - um.

[a pause.] Me and...

[guestservices]

You and Cloud?

[evocationary]

... Yeah. But someone else, too? I... I think.

[she frowns.]

[guestservices]

[...

gently,]

If you don't remember right now, don't stress yourself out. It'll come to you, eventually.

[evocationary]

[well, she doesn't like that answer, so much.]

You tell me not to stress and it stresses me out. [it's like half a joke.] Who the fuck...

[guestservices]

[simply,]

What's meant to be yours will return to you, one way or another.

Would you prefer to try and walk through it, or leave it be for now? Stress for stress's sake isn't worth it.

[evocationary]

[a pause, and then:]

... I - I, uh. No. It's... it's fine, I'll remember eventually. [she seems anxious about it, but there's really nothing she can do.] ... Let's just go.

[guestservices]

[they nod.]

... I'll be counting on you to show me around, then.
