This is not Tokyo...nor is it my home. Has the battle ended? No. No, if it had, there would be some sign. What was left of the Earth would have changed, for better or worse.

[Looks up, then brushes back some of his bangs.]

Fuuma and Kamui-kun are not here, and yet this is not a deserted city. Good. Then the battle has not reached so far, perhaps, or

Subaru-kun.

[pure_onmyoji]

...Seishirou-san.

[lostthebet]

I wasn't expecting to see you here.

[pure_onmyoji]

I can't believe you're alive...

How long have you been here, in this city?

[lostthebet]

Only a few weeks.

How long has it been since my death?

[pure_onmyoji]

About that long.

You...are well?

[ooc: awkward turtle moment]

[lostthebet]

I am.

As are you, I hope?

[pure_onmyoji]

I am.

...The Dragons of Earth were winning, last I saw. Fuuma did his work well, and I received the "gift" you wanted me to have.

[lostthebet]

..."Gift"?

[pure_onmyoji]

Your other eye, Seishirou-san.

[lostthebet]

I did wonder...

I take it you don't recall me telling you I'd rather you kept both your own eyes?

[pure_onmyoji]

And do you remember Fuuma removing one of mine before our fight?

[lostthebet]

I prevented that from occuring. You and I never fought...

[He pauses thoughtfully, taking out and lighting up a cigarette.]

I wonder...

[pure_onmyoji]

Then...you are not the Seishirou that I know. He tried to kill me, and it...backfired.

[He glances at him]

Then how did you die, if your Subaru and you never fought?

[lostthebet]

Backfired... how so?

[He takes a drag, before offering his cigarette to Subaru.]

As I was always told I'd die; in place of the one I cared for.

[pure_onmyoji]

A spell Hokuto cast before she was killed.

[He steps up to him and takes it with a nod, pausing briefly]

In place of...?

[He takes a light drag as well, blowing out a bit of smoke to the side before offering it back]
