Having got a new shipment of books for the coming semester, Toris was busy trying to get them all in the right place, and being the only one there at the time, this was no easy task to accomplish. Hair pulled up and out of his face, he was trying to slide another book into place that seemed to want to be difficult with him. With a frustrated sigh he shifted the books in his other arm to try to get more freedom to get the stubborn novel into its' place.

So focused he was on the time consuming task before him that he didn't notice the door open behind him (or the small bell that should've alerted him to the presence of a customer), so when he heard a voice seeming to appear behind him with no warning, Toris jumped some of the books dropping to the floor in his surprise. One dropped on his foot causing him to hiss slightly before turning to whoever had come in. He was about to put on his best "may I help you?" expression when it died at who stood there.

"E-Eduard?"

His eyes widened, when he saw that indeed, he knew that man. He hadn't seen that face in years, and yet... How could he forget, his eldest cousin, Toris! He took a step closer, looking completely amazed. "Toris!"

He smiled, and stepped up to his cousin, taking a book that had fell on the floor, and looking up at the brunette. He had really grown, ever since he last saw him.

His look of complete surprise mixed with bafflement melted into a small smile as he took in his cousin (and long ago best friend along with Raivis), he hadn't changed a lot, which was strangely comforting. He gently took the book from the other's grasp before forcefully putting it into its' proper place, the book sliding in with no problems this time.

"What are you doing here? You never said you were planning on moving." He walked over to one of the desks and set the tower of books down so he could talk properly with Eduard.

He continued helping his cousin out with gathering the books, and putting them in their places, before he heard the other's question. He didn't know..?

Eduard blinked at that, and crossed his arms over his chest in confusion. "Eh...? What do you mean by that? I did send you an email," he said, tilting his head to the side. He was unable to possibly think that anyone would go for more than an hour without checking their email, therefore, he thought that Toris would have already known both that he was coming, and where he lived, since he had sent an accurate map of his residence along.

"You sent me a..." Toris trailed off trying to think of the last time he'd checked his messages...then he tried to think of where he'd left his laptop last...huh. He blinked back into focus and laughed a little awkwardly, "I-I must have forgotten to check my email for a little while." Provided that Eduard hadn't changed in the many years they'd spent apart, he would probably find that shocking as well as inexcusable. As they finally got the books back into place, Toris leaned against one of the bookshelves.

"So where are you living now? We should call Raivis and get together, it's been so long since we've been able to do anything with just the three of us."

"Ah, I live in the Centralia apartments, heard of them?" Eduard asked, tilting his head to the side, and starting to browse the titles of the books, smiling at his cousin. Inside his head, his disapproval of the other not checking his email was great, but then he remembered, just because he was Estonian, it didn't mean everyone else was. He sighed, and perked up at the mention of the youngest of the three.

"Raivis, yes! How has he been faring...?" he inquired, very concerned about the small Latvian, that somehow, could never keep himself out of trouble.

"He's been doing...well...he's working as a secretary for Iv--a local psychiatrist," that was a less than subtle save. He wasn't sure how Eduard would take the fact that Raivis was now working with (...for) Ivan when he wasn't terribly fond of the idea himself. "Oh, and he got married." he added as a quick afterthought.

Eduard blinked, and pushed his glasses up his nose, his eyes examining Toris. 'Why would he try to hide the name of the psychiatrist?' His eyes narrowed, but he quickly got over it, to nod at the next sentence.

"Ah, yes, I've been checking his status updates. I've even seen the... husband," he groaned, and crossed his arms over his chest. "I am less than pleased with this."

Yay for laptop return! Back to answering threads :3 toris_tori August 14 2010, 22:49:46 UTC
Giving Eduard a quiet stare in return to the obvious distaste for one Peter Kirkland, and frowned slightly, not exactly approving of the younger cousin's lack of support for Raivis. "It has made him happy." he answered quietly.

If Peter made Raivis happy, than he was fine with it. He wasn't sure how Peter felt about him, but he didn't seem like he was purposefully mean or anything like that.

"Ah, so I've heard." he said softly, and heaved a sigh. "But, allow me to have my doubts." Straightening his collar, and giving a cough, he smiled again, a different edge to it this time.

"You haven't said much about yourself though, Toris."
