Llewellyn had eventually forced himself to go out again… Once he and Rhy had a chance to talk and had time for some comfort and recovery from the start of all this.

He had realized that there were probably a lot of people who hadn’t been through this before, and the mental image of people being overwhelmed and in need of assistance had struck him. In his experience it could be incredibly disorientating, and because these crystals happened to be falling outside, most people were probably in between errands or on their way somewhere… So he had bundled up again, making sure his hat and gloves were on before he went out the door to see if anyone needed help with reorienting themselves or to talk.

Yes, he realized that perhaps this was also taking a risk that he might see more people’s memories… But who would Llewellyn be if he wasn’t a little reckless when it came to wanting to help?

And that aside, it was important to watch for signs or clues as to what might have triggered this. To figure out if there were any connections or reasons for some memories. If there were any patterns or obvious triggers for how the memories were pulled from their own heads and crystallized. Suspicious people or signs…

So he needed to be out, regardless of how he felt about seeing things he'd rather not.



We’ve been here before. - Closed to Rhy - Backdated to first day

Llewellyn hadn’t thought much that morning when he looked out to see the sky full of clouds out the window of Rhy’s apartment. It had snowed a lot recently, and the sky seemed to be ready to drop more on them… What was yet to be determined, but it seemed sensible to get Pretzel out for a walk before anything began. The dog was having a little bit of a challenge with the few feet that had fallen recently, his heavier body and shorter legs making wading in snow rather difficult and slightly comical looking as he tried to plow into the white stuff.

So. Getting him out to burn off energy and to take care of his dog-business seemed smart before whatever was to come got started.

They didn’t quite get the walk finished before the weather turned, and Llewellyn frowned lightly, as it seemed that something a little… heavier than snow or rain was falling. At first he presumed it was something akin to hail mixed in, which seemed a bit out-of-place considering the conditions were wrong for it… “Hm…” His brow furrowed as he glanced to Rhy, then to Pretzel, and then around at the surrounding ground. There were… Crystals? That was not normal.

A few came to rest on the brim of his hat and he reached up without thinking to pull them off the brim to get a closer look… And regretted the decision instantly as his mind was flooded with a memory and impressions of feelings that were not his own. As jarring as it had been during his stay at the Sphere, but also familiar in a way. It wasn’t hard for him to recognize the voices speaking, the vaguely familiar setting he’d seen in someone else’s memories so many times before now.

Rhy.

This was another one of Rhy’s… And, as the debate and light bickering between siblings unfolded, he realized this was sometime after the last one he’d seen at the Sphere. The Banner Night memory where Rhy’s ex-lover had let himself into the man’s room and… Well, Llewellyn didn’t care to re-live that memory again. No. He was too busy being caught up in this one, getting the sense of Rhy’s pride for having come up with a plan for keeping Kell’s identity as this ‘Kamerov Loste’ secret, listening to the almost expected reaction from Kell at finding out the actor and Rhy had known one another before all this…

Not that it was a surprise. Llewellyn was quite aware that his husband had far more experience than he had. People had pasts, it was to be expected.

And then as the memory wound onward, and drew closer to a close… There was a sadness there, the two brothers clearly hurting for those they loved who’d left. It made his heart ache again, of course, to think of how much Rhy had hurt… And sadder still, to realize that both men had been trapped by circumstances… Wanting more. To be loved, to travel and to see more of the world together, even if it was unlikely for Rhy.

And then Kell was striding off, and the memory faded away and Llewellyn’s mind was left both empty and too full of chaotic, spiraling thoughts. Because, once again, he’d seen something that was personal to his husband without the man having a say… And again, as with many times where Llewellyn observed Rhy and his brother… It made him think of Hubert and Daniel…

One draw back to this situation compared to the sphere was that it was immediate and while he was with someone. He was often struck by them while alone at the Sphere, since they came through the network. It meant he’d had time to think of how to approach a subject, and it gave him time to process what he’d seen.

He didn’t have time to process, instead he was staring off into space and a low whine escaped as he uttered, “Hellfire, not this again.” He blinked to focus and try to turn to Rhy.

"Perhaps you should," Rhy agreed with a wide smile. He'd clearly appreciate that, a lot. "I could make you look very good, my detective love."

Not that he didn't look good on his own.

"And we will see what comes of your hair."

Aerith might be his hero if she would get Llewellyn to spend a touch more time at home.

"Of course," Rhy agreed. "I'm going to have to invest in something to cover me when I travel to work."

See, that was the sort of Bribe that Pretzel would absolutely accept, the little traitor. But he did so love attention and food.

"And what of you?" Rhy asked. "Would you have me let you go without protection? That seems unkind to expect of a man who has learned to be humble."

Well this was just hte cutest, wasn't it? Both wanting to help the other, to protect the other.

"Alright, but only for one day. I'll rig something at the store."

"That sounds lovely," Rhy agreed with a nod. He could do that. Just for Llewellyn.

time to start wrapping?

"A plan," Rhy agreed, closing his eyes to rest a little. Yes they did. And he was happy for it. "I like plans."

then close here I think.

Rhy hummed happily, but that mostly came from the fact that he was falling asleep now.

"Love you best."
