20. [video]
[been a while, hasn't it? guess who finally got released from the hospital? from the background of his video, it looks like he's just left, the building in question recognizable in the background while he takes a moment to get a breath of the cold, fresh outdoor air. maybe it's just because he's been stuck inside for a while, or because the chill feels a bit like home, but he looks much more cheerful than what might have been expected, given his attitude when speaking to anyone the last few days.
said last few days were spent, not sulking (because like hell would he admit to being sad about what happened), but seething. being unceremoniously ditched by sasuke was all the worst things in the world, humiliating and devastating and absolutely infuriating, and for those first few days maybe he was sad. a little. it's like he's a kid again, when his dad wouldn't even look at him, and he's left wondering what he did wrong why he wasn't good enough for them.
but now, he's come to the same conclusion as back then. it isn't his fault. he didn't do anything wrong. everyone else is wrong, and the fact that he blamed himself for it because of them, even briefly, is even more frustrating. his father really just ignored him, and so becoming better than him was enough to satisfy saralegui, but this...
this, what sasuke did, is nothing short of betrayal. so, done with anger and stewing alone in a hospital room, the king is reinvigorated and has a new purpose. there are all sorts of ways to destroy a person, but he knows that his ex-partner needs nothing in the world more than fighting, and the easiest way to make that impossible here is to just eliminate the possibility of him finding a new partner.]
Merry Christmas, everyone. I must admit, I still don't know much about the holiday, but from what I've heard, the idea is a nice one. I suppose getting to go home is the best present I could have expected. I hope you'll all forgive me for my mood recently. It's never right to take something like that out on others who've nothing to do with it, but...well, I'm only human. At the very least, I think I can allow myself a bit of anger over something like being stabbed in the back by my own partner.
Now, on that note...since Sasuke turned out to be such a traitorous, uncaring piece of scum, I suppose I'm in the market for a new partner. I'll still need a few days before I'm quite able to train again, but it can't hurt to start looking into finding a new Weapon as soon as possible.
To all those from his homeworld -- Konoha, was it? I suppose I owe you an apology. I was warned, after all. I only wish I'd listened. And Gai, I believe I promised you to let you know when I was feeling better? It was a bit sooner than expected after all.
