[COMPLETE] Gan Ning + Matoi
Who: Gan Ning + Matoi
When: Some time, possibly a day or so, after this.
Where: Somewhere in the forest.
Rating: PG-13.
Warnings: Attempted suicide. Stalking.
Summary: After being rejected openly by the love of her life, Matoi attempts suicide because she simply can't live without her sensei. Luckily, Gan Ning is willing to try to prevent that and accidentally aids her in the rebound.
Matoi had mostly been wandering aimlessly after that happened. Sometimes, the urge to know what Itoshiki-sensei was doing would bite her, and she would search for him desperately, walking long distances all across Purgatorium, looking in every street and alley, between every tree and building. Everywhere she could. She had been so happy to find that he had also been brought to this strange place--and then, those words would come into her mind, in sensei's own voice--"I'm not in love with you!"
...and then Matoi would stop searching and crumble into a sobbing pile. But... sensei had surely confessed his love for her. He had undoubtedly said that the ultimate form of love would be dying with your significant other and that he was willing to die with her any time. Those were the words that won her heart, and "I'm not in love with you!" were the ones that broke it.
But even if sensei had been lying, even if his love for her was nothing more than a farce, Matoi loved him. Her feelings were true, her feelings were real--her love for him was ran deeper than any ocean. And she meant it every time--every time he had tried to die, she would try with him. Because there was no such thing as life without sensei. Because they were deeply in love. Because the ultimate form of love was dying together.
Which was why she was back in the forest, checking for the last time if she would find sensei's body hanging from some tree. Perhaps he hadn't really meant it, perhaps he had tried to commit suicide again from despair. But he wasn't there. ...that was fine. She was prepared.
Matoi carried with her a rope in one hand, a sharpened shard of glass in the other. She sat beneath the tree sensei had attempted suicide before in and prepared herself. First, she removed her geta slippers, placing them beside each other neatly. Then, seated in the traditional sitting position, she tied her legs together--that was so that even though death's convulsions would wrack her body, she would still be found in a dignified sitting position. Last... was to cut the jugular vein.
Jigai. Self-destruction. Her final declaration of love.
