Video; Backdated 02/14 (BFG Linkshell)

[Prior to this post being made, Corrin is quietly-and admittedly somewhat embarrassingly on her part-readmitted into the Heroes of Light linkshell after she left it several days before when her self-loathing was kicked into overdrive.]

Hello, everyone. I apologize if I had any of you worried after my last post. I was...not myself. I gather that was true for many of us the last few days.

However, now that whatever was afflicting us appears to have abated, I'll get right down to business; the day of reckoning is fast approaching and there is still one Eidolon Temple left to explore before Bahamut's arrival. Before my...episode, I had reached out to the Great Cloud Observatory in Cloud City about an expedition. With the news about Bahamut having been leaked to the general public, the staff at the Observatory were more willing to allow us entry and the chance to explore, and have granted my request.

So here is my call for help; in four days, meet at the Great Cloud Observatory, find an entrance to the Temple of Zodiark, and discover whatever secrets might be within that will help us when Bahamut arrives.

Ah, since we have some new arrivals with us, if you're interested in joining this expedition, you should be aware there will likely be danger, and not just monsters; previous Temples have included traps and puzzles of various kinds to overcome before we reached the information we sought. I expect Zodiark's Temple will be no different.

[Corrin is packing a towel this time.]

Anyway, thank you for your time. [Corrin bows her head briefly in thanks.] I have faith in this group and our ability to see this through to the end. Together, I know we will be successful. Bahamut will not find us unprepared when he arrives.

You know you can count me in! Anything to save the world!

Are you okay?

[Corrin laughs.] Thank you, my friend. I knew I could count on you.

Thank you for checking on me, but don't worry, I am. It's the strangest thing, I went to bed miserable last night and then this morning I just felt...fine. I mean, I know I was upset, terribly so, but it was all about things I'd already made my peace with. You know...all those things from the Hoshidan war I told you about.

If anything I'm more embarrassed I felt the need to have such a public breakdown over them. I really don't understand what came over me, but at least I wasn't the only one acting strangely.

[There's a pause while Corrin works out how she wants to properly say this next bit.]

I need to say thank you, though, Nozomi. I'm glad you came to check up on me when things were at their worst. I wasn't capable of expressing at the time, but...it helped.

I'm really, really glad I stopped to chat with you that first day, in the airship hangar, you know? Your friendship has meant the world to me.

I'm glad I made a difference. Even a little one. But, it was so weird, it was the same with me - I went to bed just full of joy and happiness and love and I woke up... a little less so.

Apparently, there was something happening that enhanced our emotions to the point where we ended up where we were, acting so odd.

I do want to apologize for what I said. I do love you, but only in the friendship sense. Even if I did love you that way, you're already taken and so am I. Kinda.

I wonder if Bahamut or that summoner had anything to do with it. To try and unbalance us before his arrival? There's a certain amount of tactical sense to it, but if that was the case, it ended far too quickly.

It's all right Nozomi, I understand. And for what it's worth, I love you as well. You've become a integral part of my Vaikunthan family.

I don't know if you've ever talked about your significant other though. Can I ask about them? Whoever they are, they're very lucky indeed.

Y'know, that's a very good question. Maybe they couldn't hold it for long and it fell apart at the end.

Or maybe we're stronger.

As for my significant other? Well, it's kinda odd. In her native world, she's a princess... and a winged unicorn. Though, when she travels to other worlds, she changes into a human. Sometimes.

I've been a strange girl since I was "born", Corrin. I'm sorry if I weird you out.

I think you're onto something there Nozomi. And you're right, we definitely are.

Nozomi, nothing about you weirds me out. You're you and that's all that matters. Besides, everyone is strange in their own ways; it's part of what makes us all unique. You're my friend and I accept you for you are.

And you've given your heart to a unicorn princess; that's practically the stuff of fairy tales. I'd love to hear more about her sometime if you're willing to share.

Haa, I'm glad you think so. I'm sorry if I'm... I dunno, over protective of this. I just find it a little worrisome that someone will find it or me weird and...

...I'm overthinking things. Sorry!

Then it's their loss if they do. You're a bright ray of sunlight, and you should never be ashamed of that.

Anyways. I'm in the kitchen making some tea. Join me for a cup?

You bet. If somethin' like that is lurkin' beneath Cloud City, I'm gonna want in on it. [That's his home field you're talking about, after all.]

Glad to see you're lookin' a lot better, though.

Excellent. I'll be glad to have you aboard, Red.

[Corrin laughs sheepishly.] Mostly I'm just embarrassed I made such a public fool of myself with that little outburst, I truly don't know what came over me.

All those...things we talked about when you came to visit me-and thank you again, Red, I don't know that I was in a state to tell you how grateful I was for you coming to check in on me-I made my peace with them ages ago. And then suddenly they were all I could think about...and then I woke up this morning and I could not for the life of me understand why I'd suddenly started obsessing about them all over again.

I know I was in quite a state, but you don't need to worry. I know who I am, where I belong, and who I belong with. I'm at peace and ready to get to work!

Edited 2019-02-16 05:49 (UTC)

Yeah, and a lotta people were right beside you in havin' their heads and hearts all messed up. Just be glad you've got 'em both straightened out now.

[...besides, he still felt like he owed her one. But they'd had their time to talk about this heart-to-heart stuff already; getting to work was the bigger matter here.]

I'm a little behind on this whole 'Zodiark' thing, though. What do we know about that one?

Great Cloud Observatory on the 18th. Got it!

Great. Looking forward to working with you, Selphie!

Ditto, Corrin!

[Video]

Testing, testing... oh good, seems to be working. Sorry, I’m not used to this video call thing.

Anyway, down to buisness! I’d be more then happy to lend a hand if you need it. It’s the Great Cloud Observatory, yeah?

[Corrin laughs good-naturedly.] I know, it was confusing for me at first too, but you get the hang of it pretty quickly. Hello! [She waves.]

It's Tressa, isn't it? I'm glad to accept your help. It is, in Cloud City, on the 18th. Be there bright and early if you can, I imagine this is going to take awhile. The other Temples surely did.

Edited 2019-02-19 03:25 (UTC)

Tressa would return Corrin’s laugher with a beaming smile of her own, waving back at her.

Haha, I suppose. I’ll be there as early as I can, I’m well aware of how long exploring something like this could take. It’s not the first temple I’ve delved into.

She pauses for a moment, then snaps her fingers before exclaiming:

Oh! That aside, I hope you’ve been feeling better as of late.

「 Ah... it's her. He can't say he wasn't even a little worried about her with no real means to reach her (because he's kind of clueless), but at least she seems fine now. 」

What happened to you, has it ever happened before?

Ah, Atem. Hello again! It's good to see you. How are you acclimating?

[She grins sheepishly.] Well, I've been sad before certainly, but never...like that. And it was about issues I'd already resolved back home. It seems a lot of other offworlders were hit by similar attacks of sudden, strong emotions, so at least I wasn't the only one affected.

But whatever it was, it seems to have worn off now. I'm feeling much better; more like myself again.

I cannot complain.

「 He could, but he's not gonna. Oh, but what she says is a little personal, not quite what he was thinking of. 」

Yeah, that happened. I'm glad you're feeling better. So is it the first time something like that happens since you've been here?

I'm glad to hear it. But if you ever wish to talk, you can contact me through these easily enough. I'm always happy to listen.

[She nods again.] First time anything like that's happened, yes. Hopefully it won't happen again! I don't need to be dealing with that sort of episode every few months.
