𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐢: 𝐖𝐡𝐨 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐬𝐡𝐞?
Emilyko and her friends had regained much of their memories after stopping drinking coffee for a long while, they're still trying to recollect deeper memories though, it's still a bit hard to try to remember it all since they were still feeling the side effects despite the brainwashing had been halted for them
Tonight, they're at the rooftop, watching the beautiful starry sky together and reminiscing the past together
Besides Emilyko who they met just before the Selection, the rest of the Living Dolls group knew eachother for a long time as they grew up together in the same village
Therefore they're trying to recollect the deeply repressed memories of a long time ago, back when they were still small children
"It's so hard to remember": Ricky said as he tried to remember just a bit of his childhood, he had been trying in the short free time he got for a while now
"Yeah, indeed, the Coffee we drank at the Selection was quite strong since it basically locked up our memories of the past": Shaun said, honestly a bit exhausted cause trying to remember was a hard mental exercise to him
"Miss Louise is also urging me to remember cause she wanted to know how cute I was as a child": Lou said nonchalantly and calmly
"That's such a Miss Louise thing!": Emilyko said smiling, she was happy Lou's Shadow mistress was very encouraging of her despite the odds
After a time of trying to remember and honestly they didn't get really positive results. Ram spoke up, she got an idea:
"How about we try to remember something or someone we all were familiar with before? It can help with the concentration"
"Oh, that can help": Shaun said, he thinks it's a good idea
"But how can we actually do that? I mean it's already hard to try to remember, remember an exact thing can't be easier": Ricky said, he already felt things are getting more difficult
"How about we all clear our mind and think of a few things that are specific? If we shared a childhood together before, we also shared or know something together. Like a children's game or a song?"
Lou said, she was making a plausible solution to their memories problem
"Yes, we can try that out!": Shaun said, he thinks that's a good way to regain their childhood memories
Meanwhile, Emilyko was nervous with a smile on her face, everyone else was trying very hard to remember their childhood, while she couldn't join in cause she didn't share one with them. Nonetheless, Emilyko is here as their support: "You can do this everyone!"
"SHH!!!"
"Oh right, sorry we have to be quiet out here"
"Okay now, we should focus on our past" Shaun said, guiding everyone to focus on their objective
"Let's see....."
"How about a song? Children do learn songs and they're easy to sing!": Ricky immediately got a way
"Like a nursery rhyme?"
"Yes!"
"That could work"
"But what song can it be?": Lou wondered
"How about thinking of words? Nursery rhymes do have certain words in the lyrics that can easily help a child to remember it" Ram said of a mind trick
"Let's try that out!"
"Think of a word. I'll try first, Cat!": Shaun said
"Flower!": Ricky said
"Cotton?": Ram said
"Bunny": Lou said
"None really came to mind" Shaun said, seemingly a bit upset and tired
Then Emilyko chimed in:
"Can I have a try?"
"Sure, you can try, it could help": Shaun said, willing to take any help now
"Well I saw a butterfly, so Butterfly!"
Everyone else stopped in their tracks and proceeded to stare at Emilyko, Emilyko was quite nervous to see everyone's eyes looking at her
"Is something wrong?" Emilyko asked nervously, wanting to break the sudden tension
"No, Emilyko, but what you said was..."
"Butterfly "
" A Butterfly is sweet and kind "
" But to be so require a time "
" First it must eat and then it grows "
" Through a long time of throes and strife "
" A cocoon comes to wrap it up "
" Time flies and then it comes "
" A Butterfly, so beautiful "
"............"
The Dolls unknowingly broke into rhymes. What came over them? Each one suddenly sang a line
Emilyko was suprised to see everyone suddenly break out into singing and the Song. Now she wants to learn about it
"Wow, that's a nice song. Where did you guys learn it?!!"
"We don't, we aren't really-"
Sudden flashes of a long forgotten past appeared in their minds, they can't remember clearly what it was or when it was
They can't seem to piece together where they learned that song or from whom
They do remember it was a fun, sweet rhyme
It was a fond memory
And then
They can roughly see it
A kind, gentle smile
Caring gaze who look at them with only fondness in her eyes
A beautiful woman with tresses tinted pink and looks as if it belongs to an angel
The one who taught them the nursery rhyme
" Teacher? "
Back in the Adult's Building, Roise was sitting in front of her window, humming a familiar tune, remembering good times
" A Butterfly, so beautiful "

SH Non-Essential Wonders #4
So uh, I was re-reading some chapters when I came across this:
And it makes me question whether he meant all pairs? Since I don't remember any of the boys having ribbons .... Besides, I thought the ribbon that Edward rips up is actually Ram's personal belonging from Rammy- (Though tbf the color isn't the same with the one Ram wore so maybe they gave her a new one when she undergo the brainwash)
And what was the purpose of the ribbons anyway??? Just because? Is there even a reason?
Also, because of this, I remembered this particular guy:
Sure the Shadow is not wearing ribbon but I find it pretty cute that they also have matching accessories. I wonder if there are other examples of it? Because hey I want more matching accessories between the Shadows and their Living Dolls in this forsaken nightmare of a mansion.
(Also, do they have a name? I don't remember)
