[Yuuna had been living a relatively easy life compared to some of the other residents in Luceti, still bearing the idea of 'it won't happen to me.' Until it finally did, and in the midst of the early morning of the 15th she disappeared from Luceti. Thankfully, she was returned no less than a day later, no worse for the wear, but pretty shaken up by the whole ordeal. Her body hurt a little, but it was nothing she couldn't handle.

Returning home sometime in the morning of the 16th, she enters House 44 very much wide awake, telling herself she needs to go look for something to eat. Not for long, as she moves on from there without even starting to look for any food, standing with a blank look on her face until she decides to go upstairs instead. But when she gets upstairs, she stops outside her room, looking around with a confused look, before she heads back downstairs and into the living room where she finally sits.

And even then, she's not sure why she even went in there in the first place.]

Video:

Hey everyone! I know it's been a while since I used this, but I just needed to ask some of you that...

[But her voice trails off, looking at the camera with a blank look.]

Well um, I guess I had a brain fart or something, it was on the tip of my tongue. Hold on, I'm sure I'll think of it. [How embarrassing. She thinks for a second, turning away- then looks back, in surprise.]

This thing is on?

Action:

[Yuuna's about town, doing errands, or at least trying to. She heads to the grocery store, where she puts down her basket and completely forgets about it, then the bakery where she decides she wants to get a cake for dessert for dinner, only to start to walk away without it in hand after she's already had it prepared and sitting up on the counter ready to be taken. She'll also be found wandering about the square, not really sure as to where she was headed in the first place.

Later she can be found helping out at Mythoria Café, formerly known as Cloud Nine, chatting it up with some folks. And of course she can be found at House 44, doing the normal Yuuna things- if she gets to them. Some of her chores are left half done, or not even started. She hasn't even finished making dinner, and things are starting to boil over on the stove, and other kitchen disasters commence.]

Uh... [Her voice trails off. She has absolutely no idea what she wanted for dinner. She barely recalls even talking about it.]

I don't know. Maybe spaghetti?

Look in your basket, Yuuna.

[She points at the taco mix...]

[Looking down, she sees the three boxes of taco mix.]

I guess tacos? I don't remember picking those up at all. Sounds like a good idea though.

Yuuna, dearest. They've taken your memory.

[And that, quite frankly, is frightening.]

Saori, if they did that I wouldn't remember you. I remember everyone here, how long I've been here, where everything is, all of that.

[She understands her concern, but really! She swears her memory isn't gone.]

Not all of your memory. Yuuna, what did you plan on making for dinner tonight?

[She blinks a few times.]

I made plans for that?

Exactly my point. Your short term memory is gone.

[Oh well, that...that's probably true, because she doesn't remember even meeting up with Saori here at the store.]

It is, isn't it...um...

[Cue a half panic mode, since now she's not sure how she's even going to be able to function as a normal human being.]

How long do these things last again? [Asking for the short thirty seconds of peace of mind that she'll get from the answer.]

[Saori smiles as reassuringly as she can, wrapping an arm around her partner's shoulder and taking the basket.]

A week or so.

[She leans closer and squeezes just slightly.]

Darling. You've taken care of me when I had no memory. I'll take care of you. You'll want for nothing and everything will be fine. Don't worry. It's...just a little role reversal.

[A week. Her face shows a little discouragement, but it could be a lot worse.]

With my memory not working like this, I'm going to be a huge pain. [She sighs.] I'll try not to ask for much. I'm sorry Saori, but this sort of sucks.

[She gently nudges Yuuna. Yes, it could be worse.]

No you're not. You're just going to need a little extra attention. And don't tell me you don't like it when I do things for you.

I do, but that doesn't mean I want to be a burden on you. It's one thing to try to trick you to getting me ice cream late at night, but it's another to have to force you to be around for a whole week because of me.

Though...no matter whether I remember or not, I do like ice cream at any time.

[Wink?]

It's fine, really. It'll be like the old days. Except hopefully you won't have the nightmares I did. I don't think I'd know how to manage as well as you.

[Wink.]

And of course, there's a reason we have a freezer full of it.

[Grinning back at the ice cream comment, she continues on.] I guess I can't count out the nightmares yet. We'll have to wait and see, huh? You'll cuddle with me if I do, won't you?

[She's sure she won't, Saori had a much rougher time than she thinks she's even capable of having in that department.]

Will I cuddle with you?

[She looks mock-offended.] What kind of question is that?!

Well, I don't want to be rude, so I thought I'd ask first! [She gives her a nudge back, teasingly.]

[That gets a laugh, all merry and bright.]

Your silly, you know. [She nudges back.] Of course I will. It's not like I mind, even when you aren't having problems.

I know. [Maybe it won't be so bad. She already completely forgot about dinner anyhow, only knowing that they were leaving the grocery store.]

Let's go home. I don't even know what I was going to do anyway. You have to keep me going in the right direction, I'll probably forget that we're headed home.

You were going to take a nap. And I was going to get things started for dinner.

[Well, Saori's not going to let her go, all the way back home. That afternoon, though, there's some definite napping and cuddling. Only, Saori unfortunately is a much heavier sleeper than Yuuna. Which leads to the cooking problems.]

Much later

[The smell of burning food wafting through the living room prompts Saori to rise and rush into the kitchen in a panic. She looks around for the cook...and there totally isn't one. ]

Dammit! I...Yuuna?! Where are you?

[Already rushing over to the stove!]

[She walked off because she thought she heard something outside, and forgot about her boiling pot- but comes running back the minute she hears her name.]

I'm right here, what's wrong?! [She runs into the kitchen, panicked.]

Were you cooking?

[Saori asks this with just a hint of exasperation in her tone, because this is a little ridiculous. First the grocery store, and now the kitchen.

But she's cleaning up after you, Yuuna, it's okay.]

[She takes a good look around the kitchen. Welp.]

Maybe. Probably. Is that spaghetti? [She comes over to peer at the boiled over pot of water with the noodles inside it.]

It...looks like it was supposed to be udon, actually.

[Not something they usually cook, but a treat they enjoy sometimes.]

Can you wipe up the water while I clean this up?

Sure. Let me get a washcloth really quick. [She leaves, off to the bathroom downstairs to quick get a cloth, but...doesn't come back.

That's because she eventually ended up outside, watering some of her flowers because she totally forgot about them earlier.]
