003; it will kill ye in the sunshine, or happily in the dark

{VIDEO: FILTERED TO KAGEYAMA AND SAKUYA}

[Yaguruma's face appears in the SFC, white and drawn, his voice hoarse.]

Sakuya. Where are you?

By Vanguard Inn!

[For someone who can't even defend herself, she's rather calm about the entire mess.]

Good. Don't... go anywhere.

...are you hurt?

I'm totally fine! But... shouldn't I find somewhere safer? I mean, hotels aren't really known for being good fortresses, I don't think.

We'll be there soon. Move if where you are isn't safe, but tell us where you're going.

Can you defend yourself at all?

Oh. Gotcha!

And, um... nope! Totally not, I guess.

[A blink, before she smiles. That's sweet.]

Sure! I'll go see if I can find a bat or something in the meantime...

[And someone pops up over Yaguruma's shoulder. He was grabbing the fish. B|]

Don't bother. You'd probably hurt yourself.

[He is trying to be really grumpy to don't give away how worried he is. Not working so well though.]

Just hide somewhere.

[Fighting their way through the mess of pirate-ghosts to get to her, already transformed, calling her name so she'll recognize them. As if she could miss the very familiar bowl of fish Kageyama is cradling in his hands.]

Sakuya!

[She'd recognize that fish bowl anywhere.]

Over here!

[Waving!]

[Moving over quickly, checking her over, before finally just resting one hand on her shoulder.]

Huh. You don't look dead.

Good thing, too. It would have been stupid to come all this way for nothing.

[Looking down at her, then out at the hoard of ghost pirates, his expression entirely unreadable through the helmet and his voice very bland.]

How fast can you run?

[A laugh]

Don't feel dead either!

[She looks at Yaguruma.]

Probably not very fast? I'm sorry.

[He doesn't take away his hand, glancing at Yaguruma.]

What should we do?

[He watches the encroaching ghost pirates, then looks back at Kageyama and Sakuya, his eyes lingering on Kageyama's hand at her shoulder before he sighs heavily.]

I'll just carry you.

[Sounding deeply put-upon, but his hand is incredibly gentle as he sets it on her other shoulder, reaching for her carefully.]

Just don't squirm. And hold on tight. We won't come back for you if you get left behind because you let go.

[th-they so will >_>]

Got it!
