[ One moment she's there, in her apartment, and the next...back on Gaia. With no memories of the city, the other world, where she'd been for months, fighting to save the planet she'd been unceremoniously returned to. And then...after so much on the home front, she'd found herself right back in Etraya: her memories of the time before in tact, as well as the memories of the things she'd been through in the interim. The things Cloud had already known about, but kept from her.
After she reappears and processes all the memories, she has to recuperate a bit. Without anyone around, the usually-cheery Aerith doesn't have to mask her expression, and sits in her apartment, letting it all break over her like unceasing waves onto someone whose feet are thoroughly stuck in the sand. (It's not unlike when her plushie was destroyed, honestly, which feels like ages ago.) When that's...more or less done, she reaches for her phone.
She doesn't leave the unit, doesn't go down the hall. Yet.
In crafting a message to the network, she opts for text because, this time, she doesn't trust herself to keep a straight enough face. To keep all of what's happened - disappearing from this world, returning to her own with no memories of Etraya, and...the weight of their journey at home - from her voice. So, she takes a deep breath and begins typing, eventually sending out: ]
long time no see, etraya! or, maybe it hasn't been that long, considering all of the plant life at my place is still in good shape.
so...has anybody been back home? that is: was brought here, then went back somehow with no memories of ever having been here, then got pulled back again? consider me curious about the details.
i know i can't be the only one. right?
also...if there're any kind souls out there who don't mind giving me a little refresher on our current mission, it'd be much appreciated. thanks!

i don't mind being here. i mean, i like a lot about it.
all the people i've met, for one thing.
no - nothing from here that i wouldn't have had back home.
guess i can't /prove/ i went back, now that i think about it.
maybe i didn't, and it was just my memories catching up with me.
but then why hasn't it happened to anyone else?
no subject
none of my friends and me have the same reference of time
that was always weird
but i don't know what that would have to do with someone having memories catch up with them while they're here
and i don't think any of us have anything we shouldn't?
this is weird
[ And hurting his brain to try and think about it. ]
no subject
same thing happened with a friend of mine, too. before i left.
he remembered a lot more than me.
that's one way of putting it.
we've got all these questions and pretty much no answers.
asking aurora about it didn't really get me anywhere. either they know and they aren't spilling the beans, or...they really don't know.
not sure which i think is worse...
no subject
aurora seems sincere but is forward if she can't tell you or actually doesn't know. i think? she could be duping us.
did she say you were wrong or it didn't happen?
no subject
maybe. not sure if that's too optimistic.
she said there's no data saying i left and came back, and that she needed more info.
no subject
it could help us get people back home or do something if they don't know what's wrong. but we would need a lot more to go off to do anything about it
and i don't know if that would actually work. but it would be good if it did
no subject
in my experience? it's at least really disorienting.
we already get messed around with enough here as it is...
we need a lot more info...but if we can figure it out, yeah. i think it'd be a big asset.
i'll keep you posted, kay?
no subject
hope you don't feel funny or get any side effects
