To say she was full of anger was like saying that the universe was full of stars.

So much anger.
I couldn’t add that to the list.
So I let go.

COMMUNION ✦ ACTION ✦ OTHERS

COMMUNION Communion with Nebula is as much an oxymoron as she sometimes is. It's the feeling of soft snow, gentle and embracing with its touch. A snow that feels too easy to fall into, like one's own nature. In the opposite extreme there's a fire that's searing to the touch - a constant thrum of anger. In this space, it encompasses all of it, though it's embers now. Embers that are quick to catch and burn and die again. For those who see into it enough it's in moments when she's angry - but most notable when she feels weak, when she struggles, when she worries. This burning sensation fights ever with the cool nature of the snow. As if the anger isn't nature here and the fire is becoming more malleable in its embrace. Ever lingering, but faltering under the softness of that snow - The snow is ever gentle and embracing, but lacks the cold (it is warm, it is self). But there is something that twists and coils in the sensation that is cold and empty. Something not alive is ever present, silent and moving, but is overwhelmed by the rest. It is not focus nor is it the all of here, but a moving part. When Nebula speaks here it lacks the husky, mechanical sound her voice does in person. It's softer, but not warmer. It's just as conflicted and in this voice you know that this realm, in her mind, is the place she finds most comfort. Is the place she's far more willing to be herself than anywhere else: It's freedom. But the rage can burn up quickly, taking flight into sky-covered landscape. It feels like anger is the quickest thing to cling to and accept and even in this shared space any other (positive) emotions are in conflict of understanding.

a memory—

[kenosnpcs]

[ Very suddenly, there’s a sense of Communion touching your character’s mind. However, it’s as if they connect with the mind of a shared Aspect, as they’re not able to block out the brief, but sharp memory that comes to them. ]

Magic wasn’t something that existed in this Shard-Bearer’s world. The first time a little flame appears in their hand, they almost fall over from the fright of it, fearing that it might burn, but it quickly turns to delight. They can live out a dream here that never could have been.

[ ooc note — Just to avoid OOC confusion/misinterpretation, the details included in this memory are random and are not necessarily interconnected or plot meaningful beyond a surface level. However, your character is free to interpret this random memory however they’d like! This event will also be touched on somewhat during today’s NPC Communion Post. ]

post-oracle, communion

[recordless]

[ The voice that "knocks" on Nebula's doors is loud and enthusiastic, in surprisingly good spirits despite her faction's loss and the cold shoulder of the residents of Highstorm. The importance of the Oracle hasn't quite dawned on her yet, and for now she's content to blithely steamroll her way through life in Kenos.

And the most important things on her list right now are to check in on all the nice people she met in the (honestly pretty awful) maze. ]

It's Nebula, right? This is so cool. [ Communion really is amazing. ] It's Regulus! You know, from the creepy maze? Did you make it out okay?

post-Harbinger Oracle

[warmare]

[Hayame always tries her best to suppress the emotional bleed possible in communion. After over a year, she’s decent at it. One key way… is to just keep messages short and “sweet”. Er, brusque. Like-]

Nebula.

Have you eaten yet today?

[The voice was prefaced by the mental equivalent of a knock, permission, but the rest is just simple. Yes or no?]

COMMUNION.

[redsoil]

[ round three with nebs ]

What drew you to Meridian, really? It is not an easy position to defend, what with the sheer enormity of "hope" and "restoration of worlds".

[ His tone pretends to be bored, asking after someone he doesn't really know about, when really his curiosity has a purpose. Nebula knows about guns. Nebula has advanced knowledge of warfare and technology. Nebula could be essential to the weapon he and his team will be building. ]

Just wondering if I can trust you with some work, or if you'll eventually give up and ditch.
