PM to join Through My Eyes (Fubuki)

[Ethan Terran]

"I see." Ethan tilted his head to the side so that he could better hear her words, "Though I cannot say that my words hold any weight, but to me Fubuki you are as real as I am." He laughed and waved a hand before his eyes, "You have a voice, you have feelings and thoughts and worries. To me that is all you need to be alive. I can find no difference between you and the rest of Syliras that passes me by every day, save for your willingness to speak with me." He offered a reassuring smile. "As for me," Ethan straightened and tilted his head back, eyes closed, "I might have said I have come for the soul purpose of honoring those who gave their lives for the city, yet my honor would not allow me to lie in such away. In truth I come here sometimes just to enjoy the silence. The world is filled with so much noise, so many sounds and voices. At times it can be overwhelming, and so nights like this I like to enjoy the peace and listen to the world that only few take notice of." He raised a finger, looking back in the direction of the girl, "I wonder, can you hear it as well? The voices of the night?" OOCSorry its a bleh post. Positing early morning does not constitute good results lol

Fubuki Kouri OOCHaha, take your time, Ethan, don't rush, it's better to post a good reply than a rushed one. Hearing Ethan's words, Kouri's respect for the bard immediately grew ten folds. "...U-uhm... T-the voices of the night?" Kouri didn't really understand what the blind bard meant. "U-uhm... like the sounds of animals at the woods? Ehehe... I often go there at night, it's so peaceful there." She tried her best to answer him. "....Sir Ethan..." After gazing at his face for some time, Kouri felt the urge to help him again, "I-it's not fair that I can see you with my eyes... but you can't... s-so..." Kouri unmaterialized herself, extended both of her hands, and touched his chest, trying to grab his soul "Just relax... We can meet each other... inside your soul..." She tried to do the power she practiced yesterday with her master, possession. Kouri's hands goes inside Ethan's chest, feeling the presence of his soul, Kouri whispered to the bard's ears. "Leave everything to me..." Her skill at possession was still weak, she needed a willing target for it to succeed.

Ethan felt a chill rip through his soul, and his first instinct was to draw back, but the girl's soft words slowly soothed his agitated nerves. Clearing his throat, Ethan tried to relax, and though his smile was uncertain, his voice was reassuring, "Ah then... Very well. I shall do what I can not to cause you trouble." Ethan's body shivered, both from the cold of the girl's touch as well as the strange feeling of having something enter inside of your very soul. It was like... dreaming that you were drowning. You could feel the water, the icy cold that washes against your skin, and you struggle to breath... and then finally you take that breath and you find that you are not drowning and are then flooded with a sense of relief. AS Fubuki skipped within him, Ethan's body wanted to fight, to reject her, yet a force of iron will kept Ethan from resisting, though he desperately wished that he would. It felt as if he were being invaded, and though he knew the spirit to be a kind one it was uncomfortable to say the least. Ethan absently wondered, amidst the process, how she would take it. If she possessed him would she have to see through his eyes as well? He wondered how she would take being in total darkness, unable to see no matter how hard she looked. Ethan had known many who could not stand to be within such total darkness for long before fear gripped them and they panicked completely. Do not fear the darkness Fubuki. Ethan was not certain she could hear him, but he felt he should try. He tried to let her feel his own reassurance, feel his own comfort in the complete black landscape of the world that Ethan lived every day, Do not be afraid of the stillness. It is how I live every day, and it is nothing to fear. OOCEthan is not sure if Fubuki can hear him or not, but he does want to make sure she does not freak out when she realizes that she cannot see. Pretty much anyone that is suddenly stripped of the sense they use most often would begin to feel panicked, and Ethan wants to make sure that doesn't happen to Fubuki . He will explain the Voices of the night in my next post XD

[Fubuki Kouri]

Fubuki Kouri OOCYour prediction was right on the nail, Ethan. XD As Kouri felt Ethan's resistance fading, she could see the entrance to his soul, like an opened gate to an empty theatre, empty and defenseless, however the sky was dark... so dark that not even moonlight can be seen. Haah... Kouri exhaled as she grab Ethan's soul and hold it tight, her consciousness invading his Astral Body. "...................." After a few moments, Kouri felt the sensation of gravity, 'her' body being heavier than usual, and when she tried to open her eyes, she could see nothing, nothing at all. She tried rubbing her eyes again and again, and still nothing. !!! Aaaaah! Kouri screamed in her mind as she began to panic, she felt something very important was missing from her, her sight, as a ghost, sight was the most important sense of hers, aside from hearing. Losing it, even she was in another person's body, was enough to wash her with fear. Do not fear the darkness Fubuki. "!!? S-sir Ethan?" Kouri could hear his voice echoing inside her head. His beautiful, talented, bard voice trying to calm her down. Do not be afraid of the stillness. It is how I live every day, and it is nothing to fear. "Ah... I.. I see.. s-so... this is... how you.. AAAH?!" Kouri was abruptly cut short as she lost her balance, the sensation of a blind man's body was still very strange to her, Kouri managed to positioned her fall into a sitting position, determined to not move her feet anymore, Kouri stayed put. "I-I-I'm sorry... s-so uhm... t-this is how you... see... I can see... nothing, Sir... nothing, and it scares me..."

[Ethan Terran]

OOCSorry for the wait! I am back now To feel another being invade your soul was... uncomfortable, to say the least. Yet even so Ethan worked to not resist, to not throw off the cold hands that gripped his inner being, that forced his hands and body to move on their own. Then he could hear her voice, frantic and uncertain. The girl had found herself in a world that was alien to her, so profoundly different that it was no wonder she found it difficult to orient herself. Smiling in his heart, for his lips no longer responded, Ethan spoke softly into the darkness of his world. Be still... In this world you only move when you must, and only as little as possible. Still my body, let your worries fall aside. It is strange to see with sightless eyes I am sure, so close them now and listen to the world instead. Pressing his consciousness to the surface just slightly, just enough to have its influence felt, Ethan would aid Fubuki in re positioning his body in its sitting position, eyes closed, Now do not focus on things you wish to see, or to experience. Instead let the world move around you. Do not search for meaning, wait for it to come to you. It would take some time, for the mind has to adjust, but with gentle prodding from Ethan the world would suddenly begin to open itself up. There was the feeling of a faint breeze that passed by Ethan's cheek, bringing with it the scent of spring beginning. Sounds of water in the distance, the rocking of waves and the trickle of a stream, so similar in substance yet they could create such differing sounds. Footsteps, pounding and loud, to Ethan's ears, cut through the night, each telling a story of a person with a mind and heart, destined for some adventure this night. Another breeze brought the creaking of trees as the bent and swayed in a beautiful dance with nature, and even the falling blossoms made a swishing sound as the brushed against the cold stones of Syliras. Crickets chirped, a chorus of varying pitches and sounds only noticeable if one listens with all their might. Yet still the night was filled with more sensations, more sounds than could be identified. It was alive, thrumming with energy and music that many fail to notice. This was the world in which Ethan lived. A world that played the cords of life with such fervor one cannot help but wish to join in. Listen... can you hear it? This, all of this, is the Music of the Night. It is beautiful, yet so few truly ever realize it.

Fubuki Kouri OOCWelcome back, Ethan! And I think this will my last post for the thread, your last post should end it, Ethan. Kouri did as Ethan told her and calmed herself down. She let Ethan moved his body to a sitting position and completely focused on his hearing, smell, and touch senses. "Huff... huff..." She lightly gasped for breath. Ah.. She could feel it, the air that rushed to her occupied body's lungs; oh how she missed this humanly sensation. Her ghostly state didn't need or be able to breath, she couldn't suck the air with her nose or mouth anymore and unlike Nuits who could actually suck the air for unneeded breath, Kouri's ethereal body couldn't do even that. "Oh..." She moaned in comfort as she felt what Ethan felt, the breeze of wind rushing pass her cheeks, the smell of the air around her, and the pressure on his body from touching the ground. "Ehehe... ehehe~" Ethan's body let out a very girlish giggle, unfit of his gender. "I... see... the Music of the Night..." Kouri nodded and moved his hand to caress Ethan's staff. She then tried to shift his sitting position by extending his legs. She then swung her feet side to side, the sitting position often used by feminine little girls. "Ehehehe~ I love it..." Due to her still inexperienced at possessing, she could only maintain this at fifteen chimes maximum so she tried to enjoy the moment as best as she could. Fifteen chimes passed as Kouri kept listening to the Music of the Night and enjoying the humanly sensations Ethan's body gave her. "Ah..." Her black vision was suddenly filled with white as her grip on Ethan's soul faded. In an instant later, she found herself to be floating in a prone position just above Ethan; their face separated only by a few inches. She extended her right hand and motion it to looked like she was caressing his right cheek. "Thank you... Sir Ethan..." She then closed her eyes and her human 'body' disappeared, reduced to swirling black mist. Kouri's energy was spent by possessing him and she must rest for the night.
