[Action] The bagels actually aren't a lie this time? notursalvation November 23 2010, 23:00:02 UTC
[Nagi is among those gathered around the door. He's been to the vendors and took the deal that was offered. But he's still not totally ready to walk through.

He's got a piece of candy (or what looks like one) in one hand as he just stares at the door. He unwraps it and puts it into his mouth, swallowing it whole. He never takes his eyes off of the door.]

[ This young man seems okay, apart from his apparent door obsession, though it doesn't hurt to make sure.

She approaches slowly, placing herself so that she doesn't obstruct his view, but that he could easily turn to look at her if he wanted to. ]

Have you been here long?

[Nagi turns his face toward her, though it's a moment before his eyes follow to actually look at her. His mechanical voice is neutral, but his expression is a combination of bemusement and wistfulness.]

Longer than I intended, I think.

[ The mechanical voice is unexpected, but not particularly off-putting. ]

I can imagine.

Is there anything you need? Water or perhaps food?

I'm fine, I think. [He looks up at the door again.] I think.

Difficult to turn away, isn't it?

[He chuckles, which is...just a weird sound.] It is.

It's more difficult to decide to if I want to go through.

You know how?

I do. But I was told that going through would kill me.

I see.

[ Now there's an interesting bit of trivia for a change. ]

It is true that death in Wonderland does not carry the same meaning it might carry elsewhere.

Yet I wonder... what could lie beyond that door that is worth more than your life?

I've been wondering the same thing.

But the compulsion is winning out. And I'm not entirely sure that that bothers me. [He says this with a small, way-too-serene smile.]

So you will go?

[After a moment, he nods.] Yes. I have nothing to lose, and it's starting to become unbearable.]

Is there anything I can do to stop you?

[ She might as well ask if he would like her to, it's certainly not intended as a confrontation or challenge, in any case. ]

I would rather you didn't. [He sighs.] I can handle a little bad weather.

[D-don't ask. He always makes weather references. orz]

Then I will not.

[ Of course, of course. ~SUNNY SMILE~ ]

...What is your name, if I may ask?
