[After the events of the previous week, the mature thing to do would have been to would have been to take the awkward stares and deliver his humble apologies like a man. Yet after spending a week steeped in the most negative emotions he'd indulged in even the darkest of fantasies, it was easier to keep to himself.

He'd been spending quite a bit of time along the southeastern banks of the river running outside the village, staying outdoors to avoid the all-encompassing yet entirely oppressive forgiveness that awaited him at home. He would make amends and pay his dues in time, but for now, there was still the matter of coping with what was within him that the experiment had tapped to affect his actions.

The man lying faceup on the riverbank would still be visibly bruised despite sharing living space with a mage proficient in the healing arts. He'd been grateful to have been pulled from the precipice of death, yes, but wished to let the tender achy muscles, dark bruises, and angry gashes heal on their own as penance. It was in this way that he watched the sky begin to darken, chronicling the sun's slow journey towards rest.]

[...Hmmmm. Minamimoto is just walking down the street here looking for a new hat so he's just in the red bandanna thing which is under that thing usually and then is oddly amused here. Hmm.

A bruised guy on the ground...

his gut reaction is to kick him, but for now he'll just walk on over to lean in on him with a wolfish smirk]

[Since Kohaku is..fairly sure this experiment is over, she's not too freaked out when she spots him. She'll float over, and lean over so she's in his sight]

..Hello.

[Another heat wave, another time to seek the water. Rydia wandered along the riverbank, intending to just wade. However, the temperature seemed to have risen since her original idea, and the humidity with it. Shrugging, she proceeded to strip off her clothing and leave it in the shade while she sought to immerse herself. No one was around, or so she thought....]

[Stealth is not something Golbez is good at. Wearing a suit of plate armor does not exactly aid in this. So Cecil will probably be able to hear his brother coming by from quite a great distance.

He doesn't say anything at first, just sits down cross-legged next to Cecil and looks him over. After some time, he speaks up, his voice calm and understanding.] Atoning, are we?

[Oh Cecil, you thought it was easy to escape your shame? Not in this place, where every horrible coincidence can come true in the blink of an eye. And another one has come to light - Quistis, walking along the river with a book in her hand, dressed completely normally now (and armed with her whip), looking for a place to read. Compared to most, she was enjoying the weather - she was always too cold, so she was finally comfortable. But the direct sun was agony, so she was searching for a shaded place near the spray of the water to be a little more enjoyable.]

[Rosa had been very... well, blank, as of late, considering what had happened. She had mostly stayed in her room, but today, the woman had decided to go out and wander for a bit.

It was a bit too hot for her liking, but that was an afterthought at the sound of the river. The river meant it would be cool! So, Rosa went off toward the river, kicking off her shoes as she went along, as to wade in the water (what Rydia DIDN'T do). She traveled along for a bit in the water, occasionally slipping on smooth rocks (but not falling completely into the water) before she came upon someone on the riverbank.

Slowly, Rosa made her way toward the figure, and before she knew it, she was close enough to see who it was: her husband. Of course she knew that he was no longer mad with jealousy, nor would he attack her, but it was still almost painful to see him.

...but she couldn't ignore the fact that he was hurt. Not now, and not ever. So, she focused a small Cure spell on him, at least for the moment. Rosa let her gaze linger on him for a moment, before she began on her way again.]
