[Oh hey, look, it's that Ryoji! ... Stumbling through a door in the Mall. He doesn't look well at all

"You!"

Oh god it's this guy again.

"Where did you go?"

[thanabro]

... Home.

[He lifts his head to look up at Sirius.]

You were right. I am dangerous.

[robodog9000]

...You'd think he would be gloating, but he just helps Ryoji up after awhile.

"...Unknown presence detected." Which surprisingly wasn't there before...

[thanabro]

[... Sigh.]

Yeah. I know.

have my regular minako until i finish stuff for the other one 8D

[beholdher]

Ryoji-kun...?

[ her voice sounds a little weak as she addresses him. she's standing not too far away, like she's afraid to directly approach him. what if he doesn't want to talk to her, or...? just looking at him, his condition doesn't seem to be the best... it's tugging on her heart strings something mighty. all she wants to do is sink down next to him and hold him in her arms. it's just a matter of whether he would allow her or not. she'll keep her distance, for now... ]

Yaaaaay. <3

[thanabro]

... Minako?

[He looks up at her, eyes watering a little.]

Please don't get any closer. I don't want to hurt you...

[beholdher]

You won't hurt me... [ nevertheless, she isn't coming any closer -- as he wished. you're really tugging on her heart strings, here. ]

What's wrong?

[thanabro]

... Death is inside me, Minako. I'm going to bring it to everyone on the planet...

[His voice cracks towards the end. He really doesn't want this to happen.]

[livesbytheword]

*Okay, so every Ryoji that isn't Thanatos has hit on her when she's tried to help. But she can't not try to help, especially when they're looking this bad. He doesn't look like he has any wounds, aside from that scar, so...he's sick?

With Power hovering behind her, Izumi kneels beside him.* You don't look good...should I help you to the clinic?

[thanabro]

[His head jerks up at the sound of another voice.]

Ah... I don't think the clinic can help me...

[livesbytheword]

What's wrong?

[thanabro]

It's a long story, it seems.

[gotnyxed]

*Have a far more gentle hand on your shoulder than when you first met at least half of him.*

...what happened?

[thanabro]

[He looks up at the other Ryoji.]

... It's coming.

[gotnyxed]

*He cringes. He knew it was inevitable for this particular him, but...that doesn't make it any less painful. For both of them. He remembers both pieces of himself, how they fought so hard against it...but at least this one has a chance.

He's human. Always was.*

Don't give up. ...do you remember what happened earlier this year? You fought it. And you won. You can do the same now. I'm sure of it.

[thanabro]

... I barely remember what happened here. Just... just flashes.

[He's repressed it, and it's not unlocking easily. He doesn't know if he wants to know what happened.]

It's... coming in my world. Maybe if they kill me they'll forget. I bet, if I tried, I could make them forget they were triplets and not twins.

[deathphones]

*...something about the state of the guy who looks like Thanatos is scaring him. But his dad's always taught him to stand up to the things that scare him. And besides, he looks like he needs help.

Yasuo comes closer.

Hey, it's that kid that you almost knocked over running away from that Cerberus. ...he looks like a bizarre mix of you and your sister. Try not to dwell on that too much.*

A-are you okay?

[thanabro]

[He blinks, trying to figure out why this kid looks like he could be related to him.]

... I'll be okay. Thank you, though.

[Ryoji tries to smile, but can't get very far.]

[deathphones]

...You look sick. My dad's a doctor. One of the best--maybe he can help.

*pauses, then looks in his pockets. Hm. He may have enough. He smiles.* Do you think getting something to eat will help? Nothing cures like a good beef bowl.

I'm Yasuo, by the way. What's your name?

[thanabro]

Maybe. I haven't really been eating that well lately.

I'm Ryoji Arisato.
