『 ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Cid ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 』  ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 』 Cid arrived early at the field, and made sure that the shrine was kept in good condition. He then took his hat off and placed it on the top of the shrine, to prevent it from being damaged by the water. The young monk then sat down on the floor next to it to meditate, letting the cold water hit him. He would much rather he know that the fairy is being kept dry than he would like himself.
/This post will be edited with Cid's exit at the end of the day
After a long day of meditation and keeping the fairy company, Cid stood back up, took his hat back and apologized to the shrine for having to leave it. The young monk then left the shrine once paying his respects. He walked away from the field, it was late at night by now, so he wanted to head to a safe place to sleep for the night...

But, now, they had a choice between speed and shrooms or some combination of the two. If he found shrooms, they got more speed, yeah? Or that was how he figured it. But, finding a mushroom in a goddamned forest wasn't as easy as it sounded! Especially alone! Because Keith couldn't ditch his job to hunt in the woods – ******** probably knew it would be this damned hard and left Conor to do it on his own! Or he really liked his work more than Conor knew.. He shrugged and, after heading a few feet into the field, went on his hands and knees. The grass was tall, so it was easier to look through it for a mushroom this way. So, Conor went to crawling through the field, pushing aside grass for anything that could resemble a mushroom.. or at least was smokeable, this was starting to really freaking piss him off.

 ____________________________________________________________ - Blaire Vatonage - ____________________________________________________________ Today was... a day to walk around. Blaire had gotten a bit stumped in her compositions, and thought a little walk would help. It would've, if she wasn't going around with her headphones and music player in her pocket. At some point she got bored and put them on, loosing herself in a song. Soon enough the girl would herself in the fields, she didn't mind, since it had been a while since she was last here. Damn it, her cell phone was buzzing again. Lucas! Dear God! He was worse than an overprotective brother! And damn was Chris overprotective! She ignored the call, knowing it must've been because he was bored. That's what sucked sometimes about having few friends on the island. But forget that, now for some nice, relaxing walking, hoping to- Yeah train of thought broken. Blaire didn't keep her eyes on the grass, so she didn't notice someone on his hands and knees searching around... and didn't realize it until her boot had made contact with his side and she tripped over the guy. Who knew it was Conor though? "The hell was that?" mumbled the girl opening her eyes to realize her glasses were also at some point in the grass. Greaaat. She wasn't blind without them, but she liked to have them on at all times.

He pushed aside some grass as he shuffled forward, before stilling altogether to pant. He really wished he had a bottle of water or had stopped at that stream or lake or some s**t.. This was ******** painful! From his head, to his back, to his – side? He raised his brows and grit his teeth as a sharp pain directed at his left side hit him. It wasn't so bad, but he didn't expect that in the ******** least! He groaned and rubbed at it, slowly sitting up to turn and – oh, ********, s**t, crap, what?
“BLAIRE?” He gaped and hopped up to his feet, brushing dead grass and thistles off of his clothes nervously, red from both the heat and.. something else. He looked at her on the ground and frowned, “Er, what – why are you..? Where's Lucy?” He bit out after stuttering for a moment, crossing his arms. Yeah, where was the sissy blond? Thought the two were still clinging to eachother tighter than twins! Attached at the hip or some s**t – oh. Wait, she was on the ground..? He dropped his scowl to hurriedly lean over and yank her up, “Er, sorry – no, wait, uh..” Why should he apologize?! But, he still felt.. He glanced around. No Keith to see him and freak out. Safe. “..You okay?”

____________________________________________________________ - Blaire Vatonage - ____________________________________________________________ Ow. Well wasn't that voice familiar? Conor. He was tall right now. Wait she was still in the ground-or not. There went her balance... Come on! Who yanked people up like that? Blaire shook her head slightly and absentmindedly looked around. Damn it... where did those glasses fall? And her headphones... Nope those were tangled around her boot. "..Yeah I'm fine" replied the girl finally, looking up at the other. He was still tall... What? Not her fault he was three quarters of a foot bigger than her. "Should've watched where I was going... then again you don't normally trip over people" she added, bending to untangle her headphones from her leg. "What are you doing out here anyways?" asked Blaire curiously, a small glance up at the male once more. It was pretty refreshing to see her without her glasses.

“I was, uh..” 'I was looking for shrooms 'cause I wanted more speed for myself, wanna help?' Nope. Not a good response, Conor, think of something else. So he did. He frowned, looked up at the way too hot sun, then back down at Blaire, wondering why the fair-skinned teen wasn't burning up out here. “I, uh.. I wanted.. to, uh.. take a.. walk.. 'cause.. I haven't been here in a fuc-.. long.. time. We, er, played.. here, right? Like, uh, somewhere.. or maybe not.. It's hot.” He ended awkwardly with a look down at the ground and another kick to the grass. That was the best he could come up with on the spot but, hey, Conor was never known for being a great conversationalist. Whether they had actually played here as kids or not, he wasn't honestly certain. He didn't remember much of his playing here, just that he liked the island before being kicked off of it like yesterday's ******** garbage. He narrowed his eyes slightly with that thought, but a quick look up at Blaire soothed that irritation. Hey, she knew him and that was enough.

____________________________________________________________ - Blaire Vatonage - ____________________________________________________________ It had been a long time. To be honest Blaire had missed him a lot, even if he did bully her most of the time, it was kinda... Well it wasn't nice, but once it was gone she missed it. Actually she never knew why he left... "Maybe... We used to go everywhere in the island" replied the girl, looking at the grass around them for a moment. Thinking how weird it was that this part hadn't changed much if any with the years that rolled on by. Truth be told, that thought was to keep her mind off that question... and it did. At least for a few moments, which had kept the two quiet. "Hey Conor... What happened to you?" That hadn't worked... so much for not asking. Ah-screw it she wanted to know. "I mean, you just left back then" Blaire told him, there was more but she wouldn't say it just yet. The teen glanced up at her old friend, he had changed. A lot.

Oh! That would be a good thing to say, right?! ********, yeah, he had a conversation now! No more staring around awkwardly for him! He grinned excitedly, but that quickly fell when he heard what she had to say next. 'What happened to you'..? His eyes dragged off to the left. Really. The ******** happened to him? Nothing! He was fine! Just ******** fine – it was them that never freaking left their boxes.. He stopped his thoughts when she clarified. Oh. He nervously laughed, though he doubted it really fit in well. “..You.. don't remember?” He questioned slowly in slight disappointment. Figures, everything couldn't be perfect, he guessed. “The b***h got tired of me and shipped me out to military school. Thought you'd get a post-it or some s**t, but guess not.” He shrugged and stared off to the side, disliking having to explain that.

____________________________________________________________ - Blaire Vatonage - ____________________________________________________________ "It's not like we had a chance to... well you didn't say good bye or anything. You just left... or was sent away" said Blaire, keeping her look to the other side. It wasn't her fault! She had been mad at him when he had left without telling her, so... "Besides, she moved after that. Didn't exactly have a way to find out where you were" she added with a frown. Lucas had celebrated that to no avail, but Blaire had actually grown to dislike his previous caretaker for that. She never did keep an eye on the boy... and now that she knew she sent him away, it gave her more reason to dislike her. All right hate her... "So... you're staying for good now?" It'd be nice... it'd be really nice to have him back here. Even if Lucas would go crazy.

“Yeah..” He paused once he realized just what he had agreed to. Were they staying for good? ********, no! This was a last resort, just some place to keep them alive until they had the money to get back into the city! It still wasn't 'home' and it wouldn't be! But.. he wouldn't mind staying if it meant Bl- Oh. ********, no, no, no! He wasn't.. wasn't thinking like that, right? No, he just thought it would be funny to tell Blaire he was staying and then ditch her again without a word! Yeah, that would be hilarious! That was it! Exactly. He took a breath,
“..Maybe.. Yeah, maybe.” He looked around for a different topic, something to change this so he didn't have to feel bad for not telling her. ..'Feel bad'? ********, Keith was right, he was acting like a freaking pansy. He shook his head and pointed at the shrine, “Hey, didn't think it would, uh, stick around after the hurricane.. It was a hurricane, yeah?” He thought it was. “Didn't think you would still be in this shithole.” He added and winced – ah, ********, did he just call their hometown a shithole? Stupid!

____________________________________________________________ - Blaire Vatonage - ____________________________________________________________ He was? Blaire found herself forgetting that little resentment for him leaving and replacing it with a small smile. Why, well... it was nice? That didn't last long. She had to raise an eyebrow at what he said last. "Hurricane. Yeah..." she replied first. Shithole... that was um... "Hey you came back to this shithole" said Blaire in response. It was more of a slight snap, in defense to her hometown. Which led to a small silence before she shrugged. "...It's still my home. Besides Cassie and Chris left, so did my parents. I wasn't going to leave Ellie alone with her kid" explained the teenager. Though it was backwards, Blaire wanted to stay, Ellie just decided to stay with her.

He grinned and replied, “Cassie left, huh? She was a b***h, I remember. ********, cranky as hell, too. Chris wasn't so bad, but he could be a d**k sometimes..” And that, Conor, was why you were thinking. Good job. Why not call her kid a little p***k too while you're at it – hold up. Not her kid? She.. wasn't a mom? Oh, thank god! He laughed in relief, “Holy s**t – so, what, you and Lucy didn't have a kid? ********, Blaire, you had me worried – I thought you were a teenage mom or some s**t when I saw the kid. Who knocked Ellie up, eh?” He asked with a small shove to the girl – ah, this was awesome! So, he still had a ch-? ...Er.. No, no, that wasn't why it was awesome, he just.. didn't.. uh.. He cleared his throat and looked at Blaire for her reply.

____________________________________________________________ - Blaire Vatonage - ____________________________________________________________ Hey! Her siblings weren't-Oh... actually... Who was she kidding? Cassie was a b***h... she really hadn't changed much, though everyone says she was much worse before college so... Chris, he wasn't a d**k per say, just not the best to pit with Conor... or many people. He was just clueless! But that was her family, weird as hell. "Me? With Lucas?" Blaire actually had to laugh at that, not at them together because that... well long story... but the fact of them having a kid! Or that he confused Rune as her daughter. Something made her laugh. "Come on, that's not happening. At all" she said with another chuckle. Though the last question had her quieting down almost instantly. "Ah... a** she met three years ago. Let's just leave it at, she didn't want to" Blaire told him, disliking that topic. It was something hard to discuss at their home. Even now they worried for when the infant grew up and began to ask. However that mood didn't last long before Blaire noticed something. The shifts in the winds, that were pretty strong now was worrisome, and so that drizzle that was starting. "Um Conor? It's... We should go" But where? They were in the middle of the fields damn it!

“Uh, yeah – where..?” He muttered out with a look around. They were in the middle of the forest! Where could they go? He didn't remember – oh. He raised an eyebrow as he stared across the field to where the forest started again. He remembered that! He did! ********, yeah! “C'mon, there's the.. er.. that one place! With the ******** tall walls and s**t!” Bravo description! Oh, well, he was trying was the point. He grinned broadly and took Blaire by the hand, pulling her carelessly along with him to that slim separation of trees. He barely even noticed he was holding her hand, taking to it like he had when he was a child and dragging her along to wherever he pleased.
