[On top of being sad, it felt so strange, even though Nora had long been acclimatized to people coming and going from this island.
And it was true! Nora and Ren had been a set for a long time; sometimes it was hard for Nora to remember what it was like without Ren in her life. It had been harder than people thought, for Nora to go on without Ren. She could, and she did, but she'd really rather not.
She breathes in, and lets it out slowly.]
Despite emotions still going nuts, living on a floating island, talking over telepathy...yeah, it feels a lot more normal now.
[ Honestly, it's strong sign of Nora's inner strength. For months, perhaps close to a year, she had continued on without her partner and childhood friend - never complaining, sorting out the mess that was her team - with all the brightness with which she lived. Nora's ability to continue to live and love, to shine brightly and continue to smile, it's heartening; and inspiring.
... Pyrrha holds onto Nora's arm a little tighter. ]
What do you think was the strangest thing to have happened to you, here?
[Hold on to her as tightly as you need, gal pal. They continue onward as Nora thinks back. She's been here for nearly a year. Many things have happened to her since then; it's hard to think of one that was particularly strange.
However...]
I think it was the time...Steven and I thought we were family and came from the same world. [A pause.] Not that it was a bad thing, but...it was so weird.
[ Offhandledly. Pyrrha hates the idea that she might have been too wrapped up in her own drama and pain to really pay attention to what Nora was going through.
That stops here, she decides. ]
I'd like to hear the whole story, if you don't mind sharing it.
[Generally Nora doesn't really mind sharing her story; the only time she minds, actually, is when she feels that she might be imposing too much on the listener.]
Well...I don't know how it started, I just woke up one day, and thought that Steven adopted me, and we lived with our Pokemon. And I was super convinced that that was my life. Taking care of Pokemon, training them...
