Goddess Shadow Time
Who: Saori Nakagawa, her Shadow, and anyone who wants to help.
Where: Aqures Ixen, then Palitutu's Lab
When: November 13
Summary: A. While Saori prepares herself, Brigid is on the hunt to find others to help her hero. B. Sticks and stones may break bones, but words cut deep when Saori's shadow makes her entrance.
Warnings: Mentions of death, being an orphan, being bullied, physical and emotional trauma from having a long life span.
A.
After getting the morning shopping done for the Space Saloon, Saori arrived at the entrance to the Lab. It felt strange to be in Paladin armor, but it was something she'll get used to. Brigid followed behind her with paws nervously fiddling around.
"Y-you're not going to do this by yourself are you? You did scold Ira for doing the same thing, kupo," the moogle commented.
"Of course not," Saori said, looking a bit ragged. She had decided to do this days in advance but of course the anxiety kicked in at the last minute and robbed a few hours of sleep. There was an empty bench near by and she down, sword to the side. "I'm giving you an hour to find who you think can help. I need to ready myself...and pray I don't burn any bridges here." Brigid looked up at her hero before reluctantly flying out of the lab.
B.
"O-okay everyone is here, kupo. I'm gonna start it," Brigid announced to Saori and anyone who came to help.
"Go ahead. I'm as ready as I can be," she said after taking a deep breath with her eyes still closed. Her grip on her sword tightened as she could hear
"Well, it's about time you brought me here," her voice said with a laugh, which made the goddess open her eyes. Honestly if it weren't for the circumstances, purple eyes looked rather nice on her. The Shadow wore identical Paladin armor, but her sword was sheathed and an evil smile on her face. Without a care, she started to walk around Saori.
"Now then, you've got about 90 something years worth of stuff we need to go through so the sooner, the better. Which topic to start off with first though....you actually being a goddess and hiding it or the fact you mother others to cover for your own faults?"

She rested her head on Mary's shoulder with a sigh. "I'll be alright once it's all over. I should be able to overcome it without a fight escalating. Whether or not it changes some people's thoughts about me, we'll just have to see."
Re: A)
"I'm not even sure what mine might say. I can't be certain what left I might have hidden." She had her secrets, but as for things she was denying she wasn't sure. Nothing floated easily to her mind.
As Saori came in to rest against her she reached around and pulled her close, giving her far shoulder a squeeze. "I'm sure you will. One of the things I love most about you is that with all the power you had back home, your first instinct isn't to fight. And yet you do when you must. You know and understand what fighting means. The weight it carries." She nudged her forehead against her lover's, forcing a bit of eye contact, "If there is a fight, it will be because it needed to happen. Not because of any failure on your part."
A)
"I...Thank you, Mary. I feel so much at ease with you here and I'll do the same for you when meet yours." The red head only broke away just so she could lean back in for a brief kiss on the lips. "Whatever my Shadow tells you, just remember I'm glad I met you and I have you in my life."
Re: A)
The kiss was nice, as were the words, but it was a serious look and a hand on her shoulder that Saori found as she pulled back. "I know. But whatever it says, remember it's the truth, even if you don't like it. That's what the others have been dealing with. The Shadow is just your own judgment of yourself. Its words may be warped, but you're the one in control here, and it's a part of you."
