Her plight from the shark made her forget about the process of breathing and the proper way to close one's mouth when they were swimming. Not like she knew the proper way to breath while swimming. Olivia found herself with a mouth full of water, gagging from the chlorine taste and the volume of the pool she had just swallowed.

But the other end of the pool was insight and Olivia simply let the momentum of the swim take her the remainder. Her hand bumped into the edge, followed by the rest of her and she sighed deeply. "You have a shark in your pool," she told the gargoyle.
He didn't really have a response for that, perhaps having too many of those umbrella drinks. Simply just lifted up his shades and gave her a thumbs up. The key was tossed to her, thankfully able to float for her to grab it from where it floated next to her. Aa, achievement!
But how was she supposed to get back? Again, she got no real answer - not that she voiced her question. Perhaps swimming back was the only means. Or well, Olivia decided to just lay on her back and kick off... letting herself easily float back to the other side. Nice and easy, the shark didn't bother her. Nothing did. This felt nice (oh hey, there was her petticoat at the bottom of the pool).

Before him, Molan saw a long elaborate dining room. The table, a beautiful mahogany wood, perfectly polished. Not a speck of dust was present before him as he walked in. Everything shone with pride, everything perfectly arranged in a manner so as to show beauty, yet never seem cluttered. Never overdone. Perfection. Practice, through many years, that was what it was.
Laid at the far end of the table was a simple meal. Upon a tidy black place mat, it too elaborate with a bit of lacing along the sides. The bowl had a neatly designed place, fine porcelain with silvery leaves on it. Again, just light decorate so as not to appear gaudy. Upon it? A simple meal really.
Chilled soup, a bit below room temperature, a milky brown to it's hue. Within it was a mixture of vegetables and chicken. It wasn't fancy, it wasn't five star. No, none of that. It was the simple fact of who had made it that left him so happy, so full of excitement at the very concept of what was there. His mother had made it for him. And nothing would ever beat homemade cooking, made by those you cherished.
His tail gave a quick flick, showing some of the eagerness as he stepped forward, slowly, surely, to the chair waiting for him. He took his seat, smiling at the pleasant homey smell of it all. For someone who could eat anything, ask anything of those in a kitchen, getting a meal from his ever busy mother was a far better treat. Especially something that, while simple, took so long to make. So with that, he lightly lifted the spoon and took a small bite, instantly sinking into a small bliss.
"It's tasty then?" It was the familiar voice of his mother, though... maybe it was easier to call her his aunt? It was hard to say. She definitely reminded him of the pictures of his mother, but... they were sisters after all. An adoptive mother all the same. "Yes!" He called, all too loudly with the look and lift of a brow that his father gave him. Refined behavior was best after all. Shouting was not refined.
He was a bit too young to truly care when only in the presence of family.
Etzer was happily eating his own, chirping up with his own agreement that it was tasty. Even cooled properly before being served. Well. She too was a Isukun, it was only a given she'd want a cooled meal. The four of them rarely got to eat together, it was a true treat. A delicious meal served on one of the rare holidays they had.
The memory kept attempt to fade as he ate, each bite his own attempt to will it to remain. To keep those warm, happy smiles present. Even the the defeated look from his father as he gave up with keeping them from happily laughing and cheering. They were just kids. Please... don't go... don't fade.
But then it was gone, the bowl emptied as he stared at it. There were faint traces of it remaining, but nothing he could scrape up. He merely stared a moment until the gargoyle showed itself, looking quite like a butler as he slowly moved up. He neatly presented a platter to him, holding two things.
A key, and a mint. Well, bad breath was a sin. Even as he was failing to recall what it was he had tried to desperately to hold onto he plucked up to the mint and ate it. Then there it was again, his family.
...ah. Yes. He really did love them. He missed them a bit too. ..he'd have to introduce Olivia to them sometime. They'd adore her, wouldn't they?
That thought aside, he carefully picked up the key and started back out of the room. Obviously intending to find Olivia.

Finally on the door side, Olivia pushed herself and left the room sopping wet and leaving puddles in her wake. Her shoes were squeaky, enough to announce her arrival from her ordeal where Molan waited for her in the main foray. Wet, soggy, frumpy, bleeding a little at her shoulder and missing part of a sleeve. That's how Molan would see her entering the room.
But that smile never faded, "there was a shark," she told him as she held up the key she got.
"He tried to get me a few times, managed to once but I got away the other two times. And I lost my petticoat." Now that she got a good look at Molan, he seemed just as he always did. What did he do, she wondered. But didn't press for information.
Instead. "So. Discussion?"

He merely stared as Olivia entered again. Torn up, bleeding, and... soaking wet. His jaw might have been hanging a bit slack as he let his door close behind him, idly holding up his black key to prove his success. "I... uh-" He listened, ears low as she explained what happened. Sharks? Sharks and...
He sat there eating a meal. He felt rather bad about all of this. "I um..." Nope, he wasn't going to admit it out loud. Just... no. That was not a fair set of tasks at ALL. "You're alright?"[/b He inquired, inching a bit closer to check on her without much thought, eyeing the wound on her should. Poorthing. Though he did freeze at the question.
Right. He'd promised. He regreeted coming closer at that point, peering off a moment in silence. "Er- well. I remembered something. After traveling." She probably had too. "Olivia... you seem to remember more." He added, obviously not exactly wanting to say the real thing he was wondering, but even roundabout, he'd get there eventually. So after another moment he looked at her fully, before feeling it was obviously a terrible time to ask with her like that, but she wanted to know. "I- well I was wondering if you knew. What exactly are we in relation to each other?" There. Now it was out there. Who were they to each other?

Molan moved towards her and Olivia didn't give much of a response to it besides simply following him with her eyes, didn't smile more or flinch or even blink. Just watched, only moving as he voiced his concern. She looked at her shoulder where the shark had gotten to her, her hand rose to hold her arm. "It hurt," she told him. There had been flashes of memory where she hadn't felt any, and she wondered where that had gone. Because she was still sore and wished for that aspect of that life back. "But I think I'll be okay."
Now especially when they were finally getting to that conversation. Olivia blinked for a moment, considering his question and didn't answer for a beat. "I know you're a special person to me," she told him simply enough. Did he not know? "Some memories don't make sense with one another though. I was mad and jealous in one but you looked a little different and we held hands in another and you kissed me on the forehead in one, I wrote to you in a letter also. You were in many of them." He seemed predominate in her thoughts, much like the other boy Andrew. The exactitude of either relationship she did not know, but she knew they were both special. Everyone she remembered had to be, or else why would their memories fight for their way through?

At least she'd live. Though he did wish he still had some of those bandages. Oh he left ear for Captain Prissy and that pack of supplies again. ..well maybe not. But still, he did sort of wish he had them.
Though that was all pushed aside as she spoke, causing him to go very still. Special? Well, yes, he had figured out that much. He was at peace around her, a bit conflicted and confused, but being near Olivia was relaxing to say the least. Even with the world as hectic as it was. So... did that mean? Though her next words did leave him a bit more confused. Md and jealous? Was it perhaps about Mia? Or? But holding hands, again... he didn't real- oh there was the memory he recalled. So that was shared. He didn't know about the others, but she didn't seem as if she'd have made any of that up.
Honestly, that sounded a bit like people who were going out, didn't it? So was that it? He didn't remember most of it, but, if that was the case. After all, he didn't... he wasn't exactly the type to be close to people casually. And that did explain the strange familiarity and... probably a lot of things. Especially why he fretted so much at seeing her hurt. Was that really why he panicked?
Oh goddesses, that was the case, wasn't it? His face took on a bit more color then usual at that point as he took a step back, trying to laugh it off as his ears dropped a bit further. "Ah.. I see... so you don't know either, I- I guess." Saying something like that was just too embarrassing. Nope, he didn't want to say it out loud.

Olivia watched him in silence as he pondered what she had told him, her head tilting a little to the side. He didn't provide anything in return and part of her wondered if he had as many memories of her as she did of him. (Did this thought make her sad? Well, a little yeah). Maybe that's why he was confused. And not because of the many people that had filtered their way through; while she was accepting of them all, he just couldn't figure out their places. Just didn't occur to her.
"No," she replied without letting herself slip, "but I thought it was enough." Olivia's eyes slide closed into a happy expression. Her hand, a little drier now from the pool, raised from her side and out to his. "Shall we keep going?"

She really was a quiet thing, wasn't she? Happy, but quiet. He paused a moment as she spoke up at that point. Wasn't it enough? "I- yes I suppose so." He added, ears perking up a bit from the embarrassed look he'd had. That would be fine, and well... distractions helped.
After a moment he nodded, reaching out and taking her hand cautiously before peering at the final door. They really should, they'd never get out if they stood and talked. "Right, it can't be too bad." At least he could keep an eye on her.

His hand felt strong, warm and safe. It was comfortable to hold and for a moment she couldn't help but look at their interlocked hands. "Hopefully no sharks," she shrugged even though one shoulder still was sore. The bleeding had at least begin to slow into nothing.
Olivia took the initiative, pressing a hand upon the waiting red door. There was crying on the other side, making her open it a little faster. Why was someone crying?
But there was only a mirror on the other side of the door. And when she walked a little closer, still hand in hand with Molan, she stared at it a little startled.
There was what looked like a younger version of herself. And of Molan as well. But her's didn't make sense to her, she never had any memories of being a child. Always the same size, just in a daze. This version was peach colored, her hair black and her eyes still a blue but deeper. Tears were streaming down her face.
Olivia gasped, accidentally letting go of Molan's hand as the little girl lunged at her. "You let me die!"

Holding hands... wasn't exactly uncomfortable. At all. Actually a bit reassuring in a world that felt a bit lonely, not knowing who he was or who he'd once knew. Knowing someone, that was enough. It really was peaceful...
As they stepped through the door he had an odd feeling as he heard the crying, only to step closer to the mirror alongside Olivia. There were two of them. Olivia, looking younger, her skintone much closer to his, and himself. Scowling, angrily as he wiped at the tears on his face. Olivia's spoke of death, and his-
"WHY COULD YOU DO NOTHING RIGHT!? HE HATED ME BECAUSE OF YOU!" What? Who hated? He wasn't exactly sure, but as the thing came out, lunging at the two of them it was clear they had to deal with themselves. What an odd feeling though...
He lightly dodged the attack of his other self as he released Olivia's hand to and the scythe he wielded appeared again, easily digging into his younger self. Sorry, but he apparently... had to go.

The little fists of this version of her were rather mighty, at least for someone this small. On reflex, Olivia countered and threw her fist out to punch. "Oh, I'm sorry!" She gasped, having just struck a child.
But it didn't seem to phase the girl at all, even with a bloody nose. Those eyes were still angry - much like Molan's child self, whom she couldn't really hear due to her own situation. "I had hopes and dreams," The little girl screamed as she threw herself again, "and now all gone! Nothing but a stupid hollow girl who acts like nothing is ever wrong!"

Molan was about to swing, to try and silence his other self for good as Olivia was dealing with her own. Until he spoke again, halting him as he was attacked. It didn't hurt so much, but what was said did.
"It was because of that he always saw Etzer as the one to follow in his footsteps! Because we're useless." No he wasn't, he-
He wasn't. He worked extremely hard to do everything he could to make his father proud. That other self, it was wrong. "So... very wrong." His father loved him as well, right..? He had that memory... but only the scornful look remained.

Olivia didn't find herself dodging, just let the little girl let out her frustrations. Perhaps a way to calm the child besides perhaps talking to her, to reel her down. "But there were hopes and dreams, I've seen them kind of." She told the girl as she pushed her aside - sadly into the mirror, causing some pain. Whoops.
But what was wrong with being happy? Being sad was not very fun or effective. It was nice to let things roll off her.
"That isn't a life, I had it and it was taken away. You're nothing but a lifeless nothing, can't even feel. Can't even eat or drink or sleep. Can't even get close to someone you call a friend." The little girl spat out as she pushed herself away from the mirror. "Do you even know if you're really happy?"

He shook his head then, rying to brush off the look he'd seen, that memory... he really couldn't do aything right. "You know I'm right, that's all you know isn't it? It's your fault that we're even like this!" He couldn't make anyone proud, could he?
Didn't evenknow how he felt about his own friends. He felt the sharp knock of his other self smacking him again, lifting a hand to halt it cause a small cry from his younger self at the sharp pull. "Just stop. I get it." ...he really did.
