033 ☯ Alma [VIDEO]

[alma_karma]

[That little boy who showed up on the network yesterday, breathing poisonous gas and hacking up his lungs? Looks to be totally fine now. No more coughing, no more blood, he's the picture of health... physically, anyway.

Emotionally? Not doing so hot if those tears are any clue. He's in a room that's definitely not his own, his 'berry shaking in

[He hiccups something that might be a 'yes', nodding with his eyes clenched shut.]

[zaibachs_best]

Huh. You look well for someone who wa coughing blood yesterday.

[alma_karma]

[Someone's crying his little eyes out, blubbering in a very undignified fashion.

... But yes, he is looking well.]

[theloneheir]

[For once, Sasuke doesn't say anything. Alma crying simply reminds him of himself, crying in front of his parents' bodies. It's not a pleasant thing to revisit.]

[alma_karma]

[Sorry, Sauce, but Alma's too preoccupied to even notice you at the moment.

... But if he wasn't, he might say he's sorry for making you sad. ;;]

[theloneheir]

[He knows. Understands, even. He'll let you mourn.]

[skyofreverie]

It'll be okay, Alma. She'll be back soon.

[He's not smiling but he also doesn't look sad. Instead he looks solemn and steady.]

[alma_karma]

What if she d-doesn't come back?

[skyofreverie]

I believe that she'll come back. Don't you want to believe that too?

[alma_karma]

I do...

[Well shit. Landa had been visiting Emilia in her suite just last night. He looks predictably a bit shaken up by this.]

Mademoiselle Galmar...?

[alma_karma]

[The boy's still crying pretty hard, but Landa's caught his attention with that strange new word.]

... Wh-What?

[Audio]

[derjudenjaeger]

Miss Galmar. Emilia. Is she dead?

[Video]

[alma_karma]

[The boy's breath hitches and he nods at the camera, dissolving into sobs once more.]
