[The elusive and sticky little fingers of a lone imp opens the feed just as Zero's fist - blackened with ink from mid-forearm to the tips of his long fingers - slams back against a navy and white tiled bathroom wall with a thick, though sharp sounding crack!, splintering the ceramic. Small chunks and bits of those tiles crumble to the floor where ( Read more... )

[An expression of worry appears on her face at seeing this broadcast, and it only increases when seeing the ink spread.]

Zero, are you...?

[...And yet, the ink is hardly of real concern at the moment. Still, aside from the others from home, Kallen is one of very few he's come to not want to worry over him. He just glances to the device.]

I'll be fine, Kallen...

If you say so...

[Actually, she doesn't buy it, and skepticism creeps in her tone as she speaks.]

You should really get that taken cared of soon.

[... well, it's a more public topic here, at least.]

It's not even at my elbow yet. I still have a few days, at least.

[Yuuki really needs to snap out of what Aidou told her, though, regardless.]

So? Doesn't mean you should let it hit past your elbow!

[Like she did, practically all the time. Oops.]

Only a few?

[A faint, dry smirk of a grin tugs at his expression, although there's little humor to it. She get it, doesn't she?]

You think I'd willingly let this happen...

[Well, the starvation part is one thing, and maybe if he persistently resisted the reaches of the tattoo, were Yuuki not present, but that's far from the case at this point.]

[She smiles faintly to herself at that, just one way to try and hide the concern for him, even if she's failing.]

Just keeping an eye out, that's all.

[They're both failing, it seems.]

You don't need to worry over me, Kallen.

[She heaves a sigh, bringing up a hand to massage her neck.]

You're right, I don't need to. But I wind up doing it anyway.

[There's a pang of bittersweet nostalgia to that, even in spite of what he does have in Ukiyo. He scoots back a bit further against the wall. Tch... no one needs to see me like this...]

Suit yourself, I guess...

[And she shrugs, shifting her eyes to one side. As long as Zero has someone -- the instant thought of him and Yuuki together during the fertility festival comes to mind -- Kallen... really shouldn't worry so much, except for the fact that he's her friend.]

Do you want me to leave you alone?

[He glances to the device a moment, almost surprised by her question. It's unexpected, really. It's a relief, as well, however: the fansuwoth is between them, and that nulls the fact that he could possibly injure her, in spite of himself. ...and to think, she's referring to the tattoo...

His blackened hand goes to the inked side of his neck on instinct, not thinking much about the actions. His throat feels hot, dry, and persistently aching, fingers tensed, scraping at the skin. He can hear his heart pulsing hard between his ears, distracting.

Kallen, however, is also a distraction. Perhaps a better one, only he doesn't like the idea of her seeing him in such a state.]

If you could. ...You shouldn't have to see me like this.

[Perhaps this should be for the best; the last thing she'd want is for Zero's predicament to be prolonged any further. Naturally, it's the curse she's thinking about and not something else, and even if it's not, she can tell he's incredibly tense as is.

With a soft sigh, she glances back at him.]

Take care, okay? I know you're capable... but really, please do.

I will.

[He manages another glance to her, as though it'll further assure her that no, he isn't just saying that. Even if it was merely the tattoo curse, he wouldn't let himself get much worse.]

... it isn't going to win. I wouldn't let it.

[Thanks for understanding. He's grateful she didn't pry. Another moment passes, and he reaches out to switch the feed off.]
