[Kratos has been getting hit with the echoes pretty badly. Being in house eight, he's seen Yuan pretty often--it was the first encounter that made him realize that trying to interact with any others would be absolutely pointless. Every so often, as he travels around town, he'll spot others he knew during their stay in Luceti--Estelle, Rapunzel, Patty, Silver, Misato... it's an infuriating thing, and he tries not to let it get to him.

But it's hard not to, when he also catches glimpses of his former student as well. When he catches glimpses of Lloyd out of the corner of his eye. The echoes of his son are the ones that hit him the most, the ones that hurt the most. ...even if he rightfully deserves that pain.

He's been doing things to keep his mind busy--it's a good thing he has errands to run anyway, isn't it? Feel free to catch him on the way to, during, or the way from stocking up on supplies--things for both himself and the sloth Yuan left behind, because he feels obligated. In the afternoon, he'll send a message he's been meaning to send for a while.]

[Voice, filtered to Lance, 85%]

My apologies for getting back to you so belatedly. When is a good time for us to meet up?

[Then at night, he'll sit on the roof of his home and look up at the stars. He's trying very, very hard to relax his nerves from all of this.]

[It's no secret that Kratos has been keeping to himself lately. However, even he has grown tired of the seclusion that comes with staying in House 8 the grand majority of the time.

And that is exactly why he is out to have a nice cup of coffee. He's still at a table alone, but at least it is a change of scenery. If someone speaks with him, he will not turn down the conversation. That doesn't necessarily mean he will be comfortable with it, he just won't turn it down.]

[It's still at the same as it's always been for this guy. It's a mistake to leave the house, and it's a mistake to stay in it. Kratos gets no quarter during fourth wall. Blame his fate!]

[It's taken Kratos a few days to finally make an important announcement. To be honest, it's a hard hit for him. Despite how things had been between them back home when Kratos arrived in Luceti, Yuan was still his closest companion. Now that he knew how things would play out back home as well, it only served to make Kratos' chest feel more heavy.

Nevertheless, he does what needs to be done.]

For those who knew him... Yuan has been sent home.

[...]

I apologize.

[He says nothing more.]

[Action]

[Once night falls, Kratos can be seen on the rooftop of house eight, looking at the stars. He'll answer if called to, but don't expect much--he feels even less talkative than usual.]

[Kratos was silently mallynapped shortly before shit hit the fan. He's just now returning, wandering toward the village as he tries to collect his thoughts. First, he wonders just how long he's been gone. He then wonders if anything has happened regarding Mithos in his absence. Despite the fact that his former student has been on the down low, he cannot help but be concerned. But that's only natural, is it not? He is to blame for how things have played out--

And as Kratos thinks such things, a faint hint of music begins to follow him. It gets louder the longer he thinks about certain topics, and by the time he reaches the village it's completely audible. Have fun, Lucetians.]

((OOC: Kratos has been returned with an effect--"Crawling" by Linkin Park will play whenever he begins to brood. There will be seemingly no source to where the music is coming from. Not only that, but Kratos will be even more prone to brooding as long as the effect is in play--I'm giving this one two weeks, because it could prove to be fun. See, Luna? I DID IT~))

[Kratos is met with confusion when he awakens in the forest, clad in only the white pants and shoes given to men who arrive in Luceti.

What happened? He doesn't remember. There was the draft... both him and Yuan had fallen ill... but what after that? Nothing. Had he been killed? He's out here like this, so it was a possibility. Or was it? He has no recollection of being killed. So maybe--

--maybe he had been. As Kratos props himself up, he quickly realizes that he can't feel the ground beneath him. Shock floods him, and he shakily stands up. When he has to lean against a tree for a moment, he notices that he can't feel the bark, either.

He had been struck down. He doesn't remember it, but it had happened. And the penalty appears to be his ability to use his sense of touch.

It's disgustingly fitting, considering how many Chosen Ones he had led to become the exact same way.

The man allows himself to let the shock pass a bit before making his way back to House Eight. One may bump into him as he makes this journey, but while he'll be polite, he'll also act very rushed.]

[Yuan Only]

[After Kratos returns to House Eight and fixes himself up, he'll see if Yuan is actually home. He's probably caused the man... concern? Frustration? Who knows, with how complicated their friendship is at the moment. Either way, he should make his return known to the other man.]

Yuan?

[Kratos has emerged from house 8 to do some grocery shopping, and perhaps see Noishe on his way back from that. However, that's not the only reason he's out and about.

Yuan's gone missing, and while Kratos is somewhat certain that it's due to a mallynapping, he also knows that there's always that chance that Yuan just left with no sign of when he'd return. Things have not improved since... the morning after the Valentine's experiment had ended. Of course, the blame for that lies with both of them, but Kratos doesn't even know what he could do to make things easier...

In any case, he'll be out and about all day, just ripe for all the bothering.]

[It was probably a mistake to leave the house.

Or even stay in the house...]

[Kratos has been scoping out the area ever since he had arrived and was filled in on things. This specific day isn't any different, except that he's also getting food for himself and Yuan.

Feel free to run into him.]

[There's only silence at first, aside from some very quiet background noise. After a few moments though, a deep voice speaks, sounding more than a little disoriented.]

Lloyd...

This is for interaction with Kratos, any time or anywhere, without the hassle of a new post.

If it's a continuation of a previous thread, please give me a link so I can use it as context quickly, and when making a new thread, please title the subject line like this: [action/voice/writen - date of interaction]

KRATOS'S CR - LUCETI。

( CLICK! )

If there's something not quite up to par with Kratos as you think it could be, this is the place to tell me. All I ask is that you're civil about it, okay? I try to be as receptive to crit as possible.
