ACTION~ Where to go next?

Who: Terra and Open
Where: Aimlessly wandering the city
Summary: Terra going over her new memories and feeling awful

The only thing in her view was the street as it fell away from her sight. Her focus was scattered except for the rhythmic pattern of her steps as she wandered aimlessly through the city scape. Nothing made sense because it all was a lie. How would she know what was true and what wasn't now that she lost control. Would she just be a danger to those around her? Should she keep trying to learn magic? What if something worse happened next time?

A range of emotions filled her fear, hate, sadness... She didn't know where to go or what to do next. So she walked hoping her destination finds her.

She walked over to the door slowly and opened it wide enough for him to enter. Her eyes glanced back over the street for a moment before following him inside. She felt unstable and worried about losing control. Her eyes looked around the room carefully before regarding the man with her.

Terra wasn't sure what to do. This was the first time she has visited someone's home like this.

Happily, she'd notice how homey it was. It was almost like it was the house of a kind granny. Large couches, wooden tables and chairs, a warm fire burning inside a chimney, with a pot of boiling water hanging over it. There were quilts all over the place and a few paintings too.

"Have a seat", he said as he placed the chocolates over the table.

She sat down on the edge of a couch, facing the fire. The heat felt nice and she enjoyed watching the flames as they danced across the logs. "Thank you." Terra felt her shoulders relax as she watched the fire. She felt safe, though she didnt know if she could trust her own feelings.

That was good. It was good that she seemed to relax a little bit more. God knows Gabriel has been trying. But knowing his brother is in town was never a good thing. It sucked. It meant everyone would inevitably die. That was Lucifer's purpose, to destroy and bring the apocalypse to the world. However, now was not the moment to think about such matters.

Gabriel scrambled to get to the kitchen and find some silverware and some decent plates. He really wanted to share that chocolate and caramel butter creme pie. The first time he had them, he almost went to Heaven. Almost.

He brought the plates to the table and ran back to the kitchen to get a knife. When he came back, he pulled open one box, slid the pie from it, and placed it on the center of the table. Then he looked at Terra. "Tea, coffee or hot chocolate?"

She faltered at his question, it was so simple but she was unsure. "Tea?" She asked back, its all she had drank of those three and she knew that she had liked it then. For all the horrors that she did remember she wished that those more simple memories would come back. Those were the memories that she wished to hold close.

"Thank you." Terra watched the man as he moved, realizing that she didn't know who he was except that he was being kind. It worried her but she just didn't have the will to leave.

"Great. I think I have something here that we'd both enjoy. It's very fragrant and fruity", he nodded as he head to the cupboard. The moment he placed his hand inside, hidden from Terra's sight, a tin of fresh orchard tea materialized. He took it, and prepared a whole pot for them. He waited for it to steep and he placed his tea set on the table.

He then urged her to sit opposite to her. She can go, if she wanted to, but Gabriel would make sure she stayed for tea. The doors and windows would make sure of it.

"Please", he started bashfully. "Have a seat. It would be my pleasure to have you with me. I do get lonely. Don't we all get lonely?", he asked as he sat down and started cutting through the pie.

Terra slowly moved from her seat by the fire, so that she was sitting across from him at the table. His last question made her pause for a moment before sitting. She had only ever really been alone, so she wouldn't know what it meant to not feel lonely. For a brief moment she thought she had friends but like many things it was taken away from her.

She reached out for the tea cup, her eyes fixated on the steam coming from the warm pot and then the design on the set. She didn't want to look up at him. She knew that her feelings were obvious and she wasn't sure if she wanted to talk about it. Her voice was soft as she spoke. "I don't know."

He poured her some tea and just kept his gaze at her after he gave her a slice of pie. "Of course we do", he said cheerfully. "People need friends and company", he said while picking on his slice of pie. His brows seemingly furrowing.

"If you're troubled, you can tell me you know. No need to go on specifics. Just tell me so you can unburden yourself", he said with a glow on his features.

Terra looked down at the pie and began to poke at it with her fork. She wasn't sure where to start and honestly talking to a stranger was easier. He didn't know her, at least she didn't think he did.

"When I woke up here... I had lost my memory and now some of it came back."

"O-okay", he said with his brows furrowing. "How did you get it back?"

She thought about how to explain it but it didn't really make sense to her. "I'm not sure. Kefka pushed power into me... I don't really know what happened but I turned into a monster and lost control."

Terra's eyes stayed on her pie. She slowly spoke like she was still figuring it out herself.

"Maybe he was trying to control you", he said with furrowed brows. "How are you feeling right now? Are you feeling any better?"

"I feel different. Like some of that power is still there, like it woke up but I don't know. I don't know if its really me or not." She was confused and it showed. Terra felt her tears brim to the surface as she fought back her own frustration. There was so much that she didn't understand.

"Since then my memories have been coming back faster."
