Illusion LIV {Text/Video // forward dated to sunday, offline to varia mansion]

[supermistfrog]

[Once his facial muscles had started to obey his brain's orders, Fran managed to supress his annoyance and unsettlement under his blank face once again. Sending out apologies in text while confined in bed due to multiple injuries is the better decision than voice or video, he thinks. After all, he didn't want to show emotion or anything like that.

[grandtheftbody]

Yes, I'm alive. And so are you.

[He's not smiling, now that he doesn't have to, which is odd for Mukuro. But then again... with his face that bruised, it might hurt to smile.]

[supermistfrog]

[The minute Mukuro's voice comes over the PCD, Fran turns away, to avoid his gaze and stare at the wall blankly. His black eye is clearly visible, though.]

Obviously.

...

Are you disappointed by that, Master?

[video // private]

[grandtheftbody]

No. It would be rather irritating if you'd managed to get yourself killed again, little one.

[He's looking Fran over through the video feed, seeing what damage there is - besides what he did himself, of course.]

[video // private]

[supermistfrog]

Ch. I'm sure it would be very inconvenient to you.

[And that was a bit of bitterness. He continues to face away from the camera.]

[video // private]

[grandtheftbody]

It would be. [He definitely heard that bitterness, and it makes him frown.] Are you dissatisfied with our arrangement, little one?

[video // private]

[supermistfrog]

...

Would it matter to Master if I was? I don't really care.

[video // private]

[grandtheftbody]

It might, if it drives you to attack me every time something like this happens.

[video // private]

[supermistfrog]

...

Ch. It usually never happens like this. It never did until a while ago.

And if Master could give suggestions on how to fix it, I would be happy to head them, please.

[video // private]

[grandtheftbody]

It's difficult to fix things unless you know how they're broken.

How are you broken, little one?

[video // private]

[supermistfrog]

...

Why does Master think I'm broken? Even if he would know about the insane well.

[video // private]

[grandtheftbody]

Because you are. It's obvious, isn't it? It's isn't as though I'll tell someone or use it against you. I don't need to.

[supermistfrog]

...

I'm not some sort of mental patient or visiting a psychologist. Master would make a very bad one.

[He's not crazy. He's not crazy.]

[video // private]

[grandtheftbody]

There are no psychologists or mental wards here, little one. I don't think that's what it takes to show that someone is broken, either. Do you really think you aren't?

[video // private]

[supermistfrog]

Oh, no, please keep telling me about the place I've been living in for a year, Master.

...

I'm sane.

[It's not an answer at all, but he doesn't really want to talk about this either. Emotions. Not really his thing.]

[video // private]

[grandtheftbody]

[But Mukuro is going to make him, because he's not too keen on getting attacked again.]

What exactly is the problem?

[video // private]

[supermistfrog]

...

Does Master really want to hear a year of history?

[It's almost snapped at him.]
