Isaac McKinstry shared a photo. 12/11 near Tisse

Because it's finally driving me nuts I need to know... Does anyone know who this girl is? The locket is apparently mine but I don't know anything about it or who this girl is. Anything anyone may know is great. I understand this is a shot in the dark, but whatever.

she has a leaf ribbon in her hair. it's hard to mistake that... she's an earth seraph and she had a brother. that's all I know.

she was my friend but I don't remember all that much about her yet

[coinflipped]

An earth seraph. Can't say I've heard anything about that.

[He's not sure if he wants to talk about this, but if Sorey knows then maybe he can get some information.]

I don't know much about myself, just that I'm not human. Though I do apparently have a sister. I just don't know what she looks like.

[openhanded]

[Still, why would he have a picture of Edna if he wasn't related at all?

Sorey is beginning to think that certain people fell into his life for a reason.]

unless there are two girls running around who look like her, I think it's safe to say we're from the same world. but beyond that, the details might be different.

seraphim aren't related by blood but they still have families. [He was raised by them, so he knows that much.] maybe you knew her brother yourself and that's why you have her picture?

[coinflipped]

So you think we're from the same world? I'd say 'you don't recognize me', but the fact you know the girl in the locket is damning. Still, what do you mean 'seraphim aren't related but still have families?' So this Edna supposedly has a brother who really isn't her brother?

[He thinks for a moment. He's so confused, but that might make things make more sense if this 'sister' he remembers isn't actual family. Still creepy as fuck, though.

Still, he doesn't seem so convinced. So he asks out of curiosity:]

Do you know Maggie or Zaveid?

[openhanded]

I do. I mean, there's no other explanation...

as for not recognizing you, maybe our paths just never crossed?

[He's hoping that's what it is, and not that he knew Isaac as a hellion.]

seraphim don't reproduce. they're basically nature spirits. but they can still form bonds and friendships and raise kids if they want to.

[-- Ah.]

yeah. I remember fighting alongside Zaveid.

[coinflipped]

[Zaveid recognized him before he got on retrospec so the answer would have to be their paths never crossed. Yet why does Sorey know the girl in the locket? This is getting convoluted and confusing. He's starting to regret he reached out and asked about this.]

So you know Zaveid and you know the girl in the locket, yet you don't know me.

[He has so many other questions he wants to ask, but he doesn't feel like he wants to know answers. Questions like "Does the title 'lord of calamity' sound familiar to you?" Because he's already aware he might be some villainous asshole.]

[Let's try to keep it light and not piss off a fellow junk lover.]

it's possible you looked different? Mikleo was a brunet for twenty years, then one day... boom! gorgeous ocean hair! though we realized we knew each other way before then.

Maggie and I think we're from different times.

[coinflipped]

[Those are his thoughts exactly, tbh. Keep it light and maybe he can keep a customer.]

Is that the case? I know Maggie and myself are probably from the same time because I have seen her in my memories. She introduced herself to me and I remembered. Weird, but that's how it goes.

So by that logic, we're from different times.

Doesn't explain how you know Zaveid or this girl, though.

[openhanded]

Oh! I see. we figured out we have different words for the same thing, so...

I'm not calling him old, but seraphim can live a really really long time.

[so yeah he's old]

[coinflipped]

Forgive the off-beat question put are seraphim invisible magic people?

[He has a reason for this question, he swears.]

[openhanded]

yup! they're not invisible if you have resonance though.

I think Maggie used the word malakhim?

[coinflipped]

[Well that puts all that together. The logic fits, so:]

That's what I am, then. Some magic invisible being thing. I don't know the details but it matches what I was told by both her and Zaveid.

[Looking back on old threads, Isaac knows all of this but I forgot so we'll just say he forgot toooooo orz.]

[openhanded]

I guess so.

I know a little bit about them but it's kind of personal. do you... want me to swing by the shop?

[coinflipped]

If you could that would be nice. Otherwise, it's not too big of a deal.

[openhanded]

okay! I'll stop by after class tomorrow.

[coinflipped]

Sounds good. See you then.
