Remember Me (Open to Freyja and Daehyun}

Perhaps there had been a certain pull behind her decision to take the offer to study in Evermore, she didn't know what it was about the city that she had zeroed in on exactly but she did know it felt like a home here. With the money she had earned working the past few years she was able to afford the rent to an apartment on the edge of the city, the commute was long but it was hers. She liked being able to create a home of her own, even if was small, it was the kind of freedom she had never experienced before having always lived her life on the run.

She had headed out early this morning to make her way into the city, she had classes in the afternoon so her plan was to do some shopping before then. She'd been having a weird feeling in her stomach all day, like it was reminding her there was a place she was supposed to be and so she was letting it guide her a little. Freyja knew better than to ignore her instincts by now, they were usually right after all. Travelling on the subway was easier than she expected to be, though she did get a lot of people stare when they noticed the blue tattoos which spiralled all over her chest, arms and legs. Naturally, she tugged at her sleeve and avoided eye contact until she finally reached her stop.

Heading out she looked around at the familiar shopping district of Evermore city, she had been here several times to get supplies and generally explore, she enjoyed it very much, just getting lost in a crowd. She didn't have many friends here in Evermore yet but she hoped when she did that maybe she could go out shopping with them and get a coffee or something, normal things everyone did, but seemed so incredibly foreign for her. The sound of a car screeching to a halt took her attention as she was walking, someone had stepped out in front of a car and the driver had only just managed to stop in time.

She looked up towards the pedestrian crossing noting that the light was red and the guy who had almost been hit looked rightly annoyed by the near-miss. She was so shocked by the whole thing but without thinking rushed over to check if everyone involved was okay. She blinked several times when her face finally met the gaze of the man who had almost been hit by the car and then she shook her head, pressing her hand against her forehead "Am I seeing things now?" she questioned more to herself than anything. It wasn't possible to just randomly bump into her friend from all those years ago was it? "Dae?" questioned in disbelief.

If Freyja showed up earlier, Dae would have stayed and shown her so many things. God knows the blond missed out on a lot considering how long he was under Coldren's dictatorship. It wasn't a good past for him, but he had his sister and while he might not show much emotion towards pretty much 99% of things on earth, he cared for his tribe. "Yeah, time to start... living" It felt ironic that he of all people was saying that because the niveis had no intention of sticking around in general. What was the point, right? What did he have left aside from trying to live his life to the fullest, anyway?

When the blonde wished him well, he bit his lip and nodded slowly "Yeah... me too." "You should find things that make you happy too Freyja... you've been away for far too long and I know I was not the only guy he robbed the life of..." Much like most of their tribe who still haven't fled after being given freedom, they were oppressed. He let out a whine when she kept teasing him about the valkyr, it was clear that Dae who never really allowed people to get close enough to have someone who would make him falter like this... was a big deal. "Look, you'd say he was hot too, just wait until he brings you another lifetime experience in bed... you'd be fully hooked, I tell you."

It was hard to say people would not be fawning over Yeonseok Lee, the man was very attractive and charming. "Mhmmm... stupidly attractive... god he had the body of a sculpture, you know those Greek sculptures we see in the museums? Yeah. His abs were... solid" Honestly, just the thought of him alone was making the niveis blush internally but he was good enough to not let it show. The cool breeze was refreshing, he wished he wouldn't be burdened by the weight of other things and just... keep flying. But the world would never let him rest. Not properly anyhow.

He scrunched up his nose and gagged mockingly "I swear you did not just quote Frozen to me." "If that's what you want, why not?" He knew that was just her way of saying let's get closer to the tribe without making herself known to the mass. He made a snowball with his hands and threw one towards her without missing and shrugged "Making snowballs on your own like this without using your powers... definitely feels surreal. I remember a time when I was one with fire and then this..." Feels weird because he could never get used to it but it is what it is.

Freyja bit her lip softly as she thought about what had been taken from her over this time “I think I went numb to it eventually…” she mumbled softly, she had to to be able to make it through, to not go completely crazy in her mind and self-implode. “I just feel like I let everyone down…some leader I am, disappearing the moment everyone needed me most” and yes she had been attacked but she should have known, she should have protected them all. They deserved to be protected.

She giggled playfully “Daehyun Stormwind, I have never seen someone so hooked” she teased softly, he really must have found someone who was his match because she had never seen him talk to highly of anyone before and she had known him for a long time. She pulled a playful face and nudged him “You should snap him up before someone tries to steal him away then, then you can have art all to yourself” she was happy that he was able to find someone who brought some light to him, when she knew him as a phoenix he always seemed so weighed down by life.

She tilted her head slightly when he said she was quoting Frozen to him “If I am…then I have no idea what that is” she confessed and bit her lip “Been kinda dead to the world you know…” it was taking her some time to catch up on everything when it came to modern times and while she was doing decently well at acclimating, catching up on movies wasn’t exactly the first item on her to-do list. She squealed in surprise when he threw a snowball at her before furrowing her brow, now it was serious, she thought as she prepared a flurry of her own to fire back at him “It’s not so different…one extreme and the other…it’s a fine line between fire and ice” and there was power in both.

After a few snowballs were exchanged back and first she laughed a little before allowing herself to fall into a pile of the power snow “So you think I should try right…” to introduce herself to the other niveis, she meant.
