[audio] Initial Break (1)

Jul 24, 2011 22:52

[Hito is terrified as he wakes up. He’s disoriented, uncertain what has happened or where he is supposed to be, but red hot flashes of fear and apprehension are stabbing at his heart. The boy scrambles to his feet and pushes away from where he was sleeping a moment before.

He stumbles in panic in the dark room, then presses himself up against the ( Read more... )

[Audio] ICly late! though. a little later than intended. spellsdeadwrong July 29 2011, 04:06:24 UTC

[When Asuka manages to trace back enough in the record to find Hito's entry, he just stares at it for a moment. Maiden. Why hadn't he seen this from the very start?

Oh, well. There's no sense in doting on that, right? So when Asuka speaks, it's bright and cheerful, just as though nothing at all has happened.]

Oi, kid, you keep talking like that and people are going to think you actually do care what happens to me!

[...yup.]

[With nothing else to do and no desire to yet venture far from where he woke up, Hito has been sitting against his cell wall still, staring at the ceiling with his record open beside him.

As the response starts and he hears Asuka, Hito jumps, then scrambled to grab up the journal and reply.]

Asuka! You're here, too?

[He doesn't really believe it and his tone reflects it a little. His pessimism and the odds of the older boy ending up on the same world again seem to dictate it's too farfetched to be true.]

[Audio] spellsdeadwrong July 29 2011, 06:26:35 UTC

Seems like it.

[For a moment there, his voice is solemn. And then back to being silly!]

C'mon, you didn't think I was going to let you have all the fun, did you? New place to explore, new people to meet, hopefully far away from our madman gunman... I'd say this place is a pretty welcome change, myself.

Where are you? You haven't been hiding away sulking since you showed up here, have you?

[Audio] glassempty July 29 2011, 06:33:52 UTC

I guess so...

[There it is... that defensive tone has started back up with Hito's next words.]

In my... room, I guess? I don't really know how to describe it. But I have not been sulking! I've just been...

[Sulking, honestly, but he's not going to say that to Asuka, so he settles for a sullen silence.]

[Audio] spellsdeadwrong July 29 2011, 06:41:51 UTC

[Asuka knows what that sullen silence means. He grins, leaping up to his feet.]

Well, no more sitting around! You're going to have to come of your room sooner or later. And I can't go barging into any room I see looking for you, you know.

How long've you been sulking in there, anyways?

[Audio] glassempty July 29 2011, 06:49:25 UTC

[There's sputtering now. Hit is, as usual, not that amazing at resisting Asuka's little comments.]

I have not been sulking! And where am I supposed to go? Who knows what's out there!

[Audio] ...Asuka is preening for getting that icon in three comments. XD; spellsdeadwrong July 29 2011, 06:58:16 UTC

[But the spluttering just makes Asuka grin even more. The spluttering, at least, usually means Hito's too distracted to sit and worry his life away.]

So what're you calling it, then? The only way we're going to figure out what's going on outside is by checking it out for ourselves.

I'm going out, and I'm leaving this--thing behind.

[Pause.]

Unless you plan on sulking for the next week, you should go outside so I can find you.

[Audio] glassempty July 29 2011, 07:03:53 UTC

Wait--!

[There's a tiny spark of panic warring in there with Hito's usual irritation.]

We don't even know how big this place is. Shouldn't you take the book? Just in case?

This is ridiculous!

[Audio] spellsdeadwrong July 29 2011, 15:38:12 UTC

[Even though Hito can't see it, Asuka flaps a hand at the book, the universal sign for "don't worry."]

If I have to, I'll come back for it. I don't get lost that easily! Are you coming or not?

[Hito's going to have to make his decision very quickly. Asuka's just about headed for the door...!]

[Audio] glassempty July 30 2011, 02:06:59 UTC

Fine! Fine, I'm coming. And I'm taking the book!

[He drops his voice, grumbling all the while.]

This is so insane.

[Commentlog!] spellsdeadwrong July 30 2011, 03:34:22 UTC

[Asuka laughs as he hears Hito's reply, heading for the door. He's not worried--if anything's wrong, he'll just come back here.

So out the door Asuka goes, shutting the door behind him and taking a look down the hallway.]

...lots of doors out here.
