[Week 25, Day 5] [Accidental Video] I Was Not Here, I Did Not Die

[The video feed starts with a breeze catching the hem of a black coat, and then as the device is kicked by a black boot, looks upward to a pale chin and hints of a cold stern face, hidden by the brim of a tattered hat and sleek black hair ( Read more... )

[He can only sit and stare, for a long moment, his fingers weak and trembling on the Hitomi, his heart beating in his chest as if it might break free, fill up every bit of space inside him, and then smash outward, taking with it his ribcage and everything else ( ... )

[When he speaks, his voice comes out rough, wrong, all wrong. There's too much emotion choking him for it possibly to come out properly, now.

The green eyes are wide, unblinking, too-bright.]

Yoite-chan?

[It's all he can manage.]

[ 'chan'.

There is no way Yoite can disregard this. Given everything he understands about him, and everything this person, and any person outside of his doctor and Hattori, CANNOT know, it sets an immediate cause for alarm. This internal chaos, however, manifests itself only as a wary eye.]

You wish to criticize me again?

[Remembering his only encounter with this boy, its all he can assume

For now he'll assume 'chan' is an attempt to rattle his cage.]

[That.

That's enough to tell him. Just that one line, it's enough to make it completely clear that this isn't his Yoite, that once again the gods have taken away someone precious to him, and brought them back with no knowledge of his what had passed between them.

When it had been Raikou, it had eventually turned out okay. But in this case... what would be gained, if later Yoite remembered..?

Hadn't everything already been given up? Hadn't everything already ended?

Hadn't they mourned this person, already?

So now, staring down those empty eyes as they looked at him without the love that had been in them when last they spoke, what could he say or do?

What?]

No-I-

[He paused, licked his lips.]

I had a dream where I called you that. I apologize, Yoite-kun.

[And when he bows his head, it's to hide the tears on his cheeks.]

[Something about this person seems different since the last time they met, even to Yoite. Though he can't know as of now that this is not the Gau he just threatened and fought back against. And that this is not the same Gau that shoved a finger in his face and made such harsh accusations without all the facts.

Therefore this is more than a bit bewildering to Yoite]

Why did you dream of me?

Don't worry about it, Yoite-kun.

[There's no way to explain it all. He's certainly not ready to try, yet.]

Are you safe? Is Miharu there yet? Is there anything I can do?

[He shouldbe explaining things. He knows he should. But he seems physically unable to push more words than this out.]

[This kindness is suspicious, coupled with the amount of attention he is getting from strangers, as well as the simple amount of things that remain unanswered. He doesn't like the way it all adds up. But in the end he does not see this boy as a threat.

But he's unsure if perhaps this is really the same person he only met just recently.

'Is there anything I can do?']

....Answer a question for me. [Yoites command-form questions. But it's not harsh, just distant.]

Of course.

[And the soft smile that he offers is genuine, though it hurts too, and he knows that the moment he turns his Hitomi off... well. That has to wait though.

First he has to deal with this Yoite, make sure that all is well, and after that... he can have his own reaction.]

[Yoite's blue eyes slide to the side for a moment before sliding back, watching him carefully.]

Why are you different?

Re: [Video] tenpa_tantrum July 17 2011, 16:09:30 UTC
[ Because I love you.

But those are words that he will not say, now, to his boy. Possibly not ever again. So what is left to him to utter, in explanation, for the change that to Yoite probably seems... quite strange.]

Because I have been in this place for more than a year, so I am no longer the boy you knew, perhaps.
