Characters: OU Yuuki Juudai (Haou), OU Marufuji Ryou, OU Johan Andersen
When: Soon after Haou's encounter with Yubel that shook him up quite a bit mentally.
Where: Paj-Tria, probably
Summary: Haou got brainraped, and Yubel was just so kind as to tell Johan, as well as his whereabouts. And where Haou is, brainwashed!Ryou is. Cue brainbreak.
Warnings: The aforementioned brainbreak.
Notes: Posting order: Haou -> Ryou -> Johan.
Staggering down the hallway, Haou was uninjured physically from his previous encounter, but may as well have been fatally wounded and bleeding rapidly to his death.
The hall was empty. He just continued to stare at the floor as he moved slowly towards Paj-Tria, finding his shoes the least mortifying thing to look at for the moment.
He just kept sinking slowly deeper, the icy detachment of his continuing to drop further in temperature...
This was not supposed to happen.
Finally, he came to the door, nearly passing right by it before he realized which door it was because he was so dissolved in his own sorrow. He laughed a little upon entering abruptly, shaky. Weakness radiated from his posture.
"Ryou," he said, a single exhaled breath in the shape of a word. Pausing, he could not come up with what he wanted to say. He bit his lip, as though the blood he likely drew from it would give him both the strength and the words to continue. The door closed behind Haou a long moment later, and he slumped back against it, feeling nauseous and unable to breathe.
"I couldn't-- I couldn't do anything," he finished, sounding as though his throat was beginning to scrunch up in agony against his will.
