024 [Voice] // Minato Mentions it After the Fact... // BACKDATED TO LAST NIGHT

[foxtamer]

[Failed lock to Angeal.]

Angeal, Zuko and I are staying at my old apartment for tonight.

I was going to tell you sooner, but there wasn't time. But I'll be back once things settle.

[There's a moment of hesitation, and then, he continues quietly.]

... Aang died.

((OOC: Minato's communicator messed up, hence the failed lock.

.....Aang? He's dead? What happened?

[foxtamer]

We don't know, Takato. I'm sorry.

[Minato doesn't mention the bloodied robes.]

[gallantgoggles]

...Is he going to come back? Like Mr. Itoshiki did?

[foxtamer]

Yes, he will. He's got too many friends here to leave us.

[gallantgoggles]

I hope so. Things like this.... They shouldn't happen.

[foxtamer]

No, they shouldn't.

[Quietly, after a moment.]

You're with Guilmon, aren't you, Takato?

[gallantgoggles]

Yeah. I am.

[foxtamer]

Good. Then hug him for a bit and keep him close. Do that for me, okay?

[gallantgoggles]

Um, okay?

[foxtamer]

It's just I can't be there for you right at the moment.. so I trust Guilmon will watch over you. And you, him. You're partners, na?

[gallantgoggles]

Mmm, we are. We'll protect each other.

Are you going to be okay, Mr. Namikaze?

[foxtamer]

Good!

And I will be. Just as Zuko needs me, I need him. We'll watch out for each other.
