[Happy for Vin's blankie.

Nogiku is wearing her meme sweater without a hint of shame because it is, in fact, still way too fucking cold. It's a nice sweater? But with Vin actually making conversation, Nogiku pauses...

And holds up her hand to conjure a small flame, about as much as striking a match. Amazing.]

[allomantic]

[tilting her head slightly and watching.]

These abilities all seem... strange, but it seems useful, too.

[stranger than shoving metal in your mouth, vin??]

[pura]

They're better than nothing. And it's warmer, now.

[allomantic]

...That's true.

[even if she still feels a little weird about them. it's the paranoia.]

I wonder if that will continue. The change to the weather, I mean.

[pura]

Supposedly, the power to change that is in our hands... If those four are to be believed, anyway.

[allomantic]

Yes, if they can be believed.

[based on her tone, that's a very big if for her.]

[pura]

The gaps in their memories don't make it easy for us. Even if they genuinely believe what they're saying.

[allomantic]

Do you think they do?

[pura]

If you fabricated an elaborate lie to feed a bunch of strangers, wouldn't you normally come up with a name for yourself? It's an odd choice.

[allomantic]

[she shrugs.]

Well, if part of the lie is that they have few memories, it is an understandable part of their story. And that story... It seems like it would make it easy to explain why there are questions you can't answer without having to admit that you just don't want to answer them.

[pura]

Hm... Maybe. But it's not like they claimed to have no memories at all. Besides... there's something that worries me even more, than if I were being lied to.

[allomantic]

...That they say we can't go home?

[that would be her first guess, at least.]

[pura]

No, though that's part of it.

It's... their lack of identity. From what they said, it sounded like they aren't originally from around here, and they remember enough to know that much. But they can't remember where they came from, and they don't care that they can't remember anymore.

If they were being honest, will that happen to us if we stay here?

[allomantic]

[ah... she nods, understanding. there's a moment of thought as she frowns.]

I imagine we will do everything in our power to prevent that from happening.

[she is not shonen enough to immediately say they won't let it happen, but she's pretty sure nobody will take that consequence lightly, either.]

[pura]

[Honestly, being shounen about it isn't very realistic. Nogiku sighs.]

Yes... And, well, no one I've spoken to looks like the type to just let things happen.
