[ surely, nothing can go wrong when the first meeting between two cagey blonds is a huge privacy violation.
essek mentioned aventurine to her briefly yesterday, but she still doesn't know who he is. she can guess if he's wearing his usual colors, but there isn't much of a greeting because a phantom wind picks up and they're thrown into a memory.
[ He's only barely rounded a corner when the memory folds itself over him, and this has happened enough times that he recognizes what it is. But whose memory this belongs to remains a different story, and once the final scene departs, Aventurine braces a hand against the nearest wall, momentarily disoriented.
He's quick to collect himself after that, and when he raises his head, he spots the woman whose features match that of the boy's. ]
[ in the years since that memory, she has long learned to school most of emotion out of her expression until only composure remains. reliving her brother's death is one of the few things that shake it, so aventurine can notice her grief for the brief moment it shows before she regains her usual placidity. ]
... It should be expected at this point, but I would have hoped for better circumstances for a first meeting.
[ He's no stranger to the loss of a beloved sibling, but he can't show that now. In fact, all he really wants is to book it out of here to avoid having his own memories interrupt them, but unfortunately, he's manners first. ]
An unfortunate stroke of luck. [ They can salvage this. ] Miss Roxana, is it? Please excuse me, I should have greeted you sooner. I'm called Aventurine.
[ Aventurine can be found at the Grand Library! He's flipping through a book with little interest in what it has to offer, and he's clearly distracted by something else. ]

no subject
It's all right. This isn't the kind of place I expect people to stand at the door to greet me. Essek mentioned you to me. A pleasure, Aventurine.
no subject
[ Assumes the worst because it's Essek. ]
no subject
So you're aware. He said I should be wary around you.
no subject
I get the impression that you're rather formidable on your own, Miss Roxana. I doubt he had to warn you to be wary.
no subject
[ essek, you make it so easy to bully you. ]

week 6, thursday
could I spend the rest of my time here....? it's more of an idle thought than serious. ]
no subject
It doesn't take long to find the source, and Aventurine gives a little wave in greeting. ]
Mind if I join you?
no subject
Not at all. Go ahead. Will you miss having Boothill around?
[ even if they're likely going to reunited in a few days. ]
no subject
He certainly made the place livelier, but we'll see him and the others soon enough, won't we?
no subject
More friends for you to make.
no subject
[ HOMESICK... A NEW CONCEPT FOR HIM ]
no subject
[ crashes out because roxana is just trying to confirm facts and not gossip ]
Is anyone else waiting for you?
no subject
[ It's okay to gossip i think this meadow makes us gossip. ]
And it's just him... Not to make myself sound like a recluse, but he's the only one I miss.
