[Mikage wakes alone this morning, the shared bedroom empty, which... is unusual, to say the least. It's more than that- the room suddenly feels bare, as if half the belongings within are... gone. Just like the other occupant ( Read more... )

[Richard hesitates for a while before speaking up, if only because he doesn't know Mikage all that well, but... he remembers that the man was Naoki's friend, and not only that, he remembers his attempt to comfort Isamu after Naoki was sent home. Richard appreciates that a great deal, if nothing else; it's his turn to return that favor now.]

... I'm sorry to hear that.

[Voice] notakor June 24 2011, 19:18:38 UTC

No no, it's okay. It's better this way.

[Because if he tells himself that enough times, it'll feel true, right?]

[Voice] ledbythewind June 24 2011, 19:21:58 UTC

Better that he's safe at home now... right?

[He's been trying to tell himself the same thing about Naoki. It hasn't really been working, though.]

[Voice] notakor June 26 2011, 09:43:12 UTC

Yeah, exactly. He has a lot that needs to be done back on our world, and I know he'll get through it. So this is fine.

[It's fine, it's fine. This is how it's supposed to be.]

[Voice] ledbythewind June 27 2011, 02:15:10 UTC

Important duties that need to be carried out... it seems like many people who were brought here have things like that awaiting them at home.

[Voice] notakor June 27 2011, 18:34:05 UTC

Some more than others, I think. [He doesn't think he had anything really important to do. His part is finished.]

[Voice] ledbythewind June 27 2011, 19:13:55 UTC

Then it's best that those are the ones who are sent home first.

[Voice] notakor June 28 2011, 03:05:08 UTC

Heh, yeah. That's why... I'm not that upset, really.

[Voice] ledbythewind June 28 2011, 03:20:35 UTC

Were the two of you from the same world?

[Because it's a lot easier to bear that way... well, sort of. He still worries about Lambda, even though he knows he'll see him again.]

[Voice] notakor June 29 2011, 00:17:22 UTC

Yeah- Teito's my best friend from home, so it'll be kind of hard to be stuck here without him.

[Voice] ledbythewind June 29 2011, 02:57:41 UTC

At least that way you know that you will get to see him again when it's your turn to return home.

[He pauses.]

But... to be honest, I don't know what I would do if Asbel were to disappear.

[Voice] notakor June 30 2011, 20:26:53 UTC

Ah... y-yeah...

[Mikage can't... really say much to that. There's no reason to share his fears with someone he barely knows, after all.]

Thanks. I know I'm not the only one in this kind of situation, so I shouldn't get all depressed about it.

[Voice] ledbythewind July 3 2011, 04:21:07 UTC

No, there's nothing wrong with being upset when someone dear to you returns home. Doing so... is proof that you're capable of caring for other people.

[Voice] notakor July 6 2011, 05:23:54 UTC

I can't imagine ever not caring. Maybe... that's what makes being here so hard.

[This is the second time, after all.]

[Voice] ledbythewind July 8 2011, 02:24:50 UTC

Nor can I. But surely there are some good things about being here as well.

[He sounds almost as if he's saying this as much to convince himself as Mikage, though.]

[Voice] notakor July 8 2011, 08:24:02 UTC

[Good things... borrowed time, being one. He's grateful for that.]

And who knows... maybe they'll come back someday.
