.oo3 // ACTION + VOICE (the night of the 19th; ANGST PART 1 OF 2.)

ACTION;

[ well. this time of year is pretty tough for barnaby. and by 'pretty tough' i mean 'basically entirely awful'. the past few years had been a bit better than usual -- he'd been distracted by ouroboros, and becoming a hero, and no doubt kotetsu's influence had been a factor not that he'd ever admit it, but now ( Read more... )

[Suddenly a window on Community Housing 1 opens up, and a familiar ojisan leans on the windowsill-unnoticed, for a while, he's quiet enough. He doesn't know what Barnaby is thinking, but... he has ideas of what's going on in that head of his. He finally speaks up.]

Looks like they redecorated while we were gone.

[ and he's snapped from his reverie quite suddenly, when kotetsu's voice cuts through the night. barnaby jerks his chin up, silent for a moment, before he shifts uncomfortably, snow crunching beneath his footfalls. ]

Seems so.

[ he makes his way to the doors, kicking the snow off of his boots. ]

[Kotetsu just turns his sight to the village and forest beyond, thoughtful. Hrm.]

... Oi, you wanna help me get these icicles down from the roofs? They could fall of and hurt someone, y'know.

[Since he... was thinking maybe that would help you out. Focusing on something, that is.]

[ yeah, focusing on something is nice. he can appreciate that. it's better than being drilled with questions, after all, and a weak smile flashes over his features. ]

No, thank you. [ but after a beat: ] .. but I'll gladly watch you do it.

[ hey look a smile. a nice one, too. ]

Someone has to be down here to catch you when you fall, Kotetsu.

[WOW YOU'RE SO HO YAY IT LIKE PHYSICALLY HURTS

Also peering down from my window like you just kicked an innocent snail or something]

Look at that! Already counting me out; you know, I'm a tiger! Cats can survive pretty long falls! In fact, they land on their feet, too!

[ man why do you always take everything so personally. he was just trying to be--

YOU KNOW WHAT NEVERMIND UGH. the smile dissolves, and barnaby shrugs listlessly. ]

I've seen you fall a hundred times, you almost never land on your feet.

[... A-ahaha...]

Well, that is true. But I have a pretty hard head, so I think it's okay...
