WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO MY LITTLE BROTHER!?

Comments

*still wary of him, but more curious on his bro*

Oi.

[shelteringly]

What?

[roaringkick]

You got the 'I'm gonna beat someone to a fucking, bloody pulp that there won't be any more blood left when I'm done' face on that isn't directed at me. 'm guessing your bro got caught again?

[shelteringly]

Well, you got the definition down perfect.

It's.. a little different this time. Don't go gettin' some wild idea that I'm worried about your well-bein', but it'd be a good idea not to go out alone.

If you're giving me that warning, then something must be up.

But seriously, some punks beat up your bro?

[ashenverity]

Wait, what? Someone beat up Takeshi?

[shelteringly]

.. I'm thinkin' it was during the Dark Hour. Goin' out alone durin' that time was a bad idea to begin with, but now we've got more than shadows to worry about.

Both of you, take care of yourselves, ok?

Leora, you ain't gonna kick my ass for sayin' that, are ya'?

What? Why did he went outside in the Dark Hour out of the whole day? That's just...ugh, kids.

Alright. Try not to do anything rash, or stupid, or something that's going to make you end up in Takeshi's position.

Why weren't you lookin' out for him then? Thought you were smart enough to keep an eye on him, not just an ass who thinks his lil' bro can handle things on his own.

[shelteringly]

Look, I failed again and I'm gonna make up for it, whatever it takes.

Just leave me the hell alone.

[roaringkick]

Tch. I'll be laughing if you get beat up too. And it's not by me either, so that'll be karma for you.

Pfft, you think? If you keep doin' nothing I'll just come--

[ashenverity]

*grabs her arm and ignores her glare* Leora, stop that.

Look, Taka, it wasn't your fault. At all. You couldn't have prevented it as much as anyone could- *brushes off Leora's comment that someone could have stopped it from happening* -and I don't think Takeshi would like to see you blame yourself, would he?

[shelteringly]

.. Sou, I appreciate it, but she's right. I fucked up. I shoulda been lookin' after him, I shoulda been the one to take the message, I shoulda been the one facin' whatever it was that he saw out there.

And I'm going to do somethin' about it.

[ashenverity]

...*totally ignoring the 'told you so look' from his sister*

What's done is done, nothing could have stopped whatever happened.

Just don't do anything stupid. Promise?

[shelteringly]

And if I do? Do somethin' stupid, that is.

[ashenverity]

I probably won't forgive you--
