[The memory that little Shi is trapped in features him standing in front of a burnt building. Around him, a small town is waking up in the morning. The other buildings are undamaged, but this tourist bureau has been burnt down and torn apart. It's clear from how pristine the surrounding area is that this was a deliberate and controlled act of violence.
Anyone who wanders into the memory will find it to a world with limited magical power. The little Curse Kami is holding a girlish wallet and silently staring at his old home. Trembling, he steps into the surreal rubble.]
Big sister? Tina? [The twelve year old pauses, having caught sight of some photographs. They're of him. They look like someone else should be there, but like those people have been photoshopped out. His face has been crossed out with dark marker and there's some obvious hatred for him.] ... I-I'm sorry. It's ally my fault.
[B. Arrival]
[Upon waking, Shi is a trembling and frightened mess. Hope you're good with scared children, because that's what you're getting. His gaze sweeps the room, taking in the "threats:" He's in close quarters, he's hearing that this is a dangerous ride, and he still thinks he is a literal curse.
He clumsily begins looking for an exit. When Shi sees another person, he doubles back from them fearfully.]
P, Please don't get near me! I need to go. You need to throw me off!
[C. Check-Up]
[Shi was kind of terrified to have a check-up. He's a corpse, you know! Little body heat, not much of a pulse, big ol'stab wound on his back... At least. He thought that. Until he had the thermometer stuck in his mouth and learned he's apparently warm and living???
So excuse him as he turns to the nearest person with wide eyes, and states the obvious.]
I'm alive! [And grinning. This is making him happier than it should.]
[D. Pretty Sights / Garden]
[Confirmed alive! Shi has gone from being overly tense and anxious to waaaay too chill. He got himself a snack and quickly finds himself drawn to the garden. The kid can be found admiring the flowers and gently poking them. This is his first in years being able to feel the breeze, the sun, and the tiny sensation of touching a flower.
He's having way too much fun. Might even be worrisome how excited he is. Despite having loosened up, he still squeaks in alarm when people get too close. Often scurrying away in apologetic silence, like he's a frightened animal.]
