[ ok, Sora's finally given up on smashing a wall because his hands are in lots of pain and his hits are making less impact, which is now a total of 0.0001 [unit] of force. On the wallpaper
( Read more... )
[Reki overhears a bit of his muttering and hurries over, looking extremely worried--for about three steps, before she forces the look off her face. She doesn't want to scare him--hell, there's nothing she'd want less.]
Sora? [She tries for a reassuring smile instead.] You okay? What's going on?
[And anger flares up in Reki like the tide. She clamps down on it just as quickly--she is not going to upset him!--but her eyes go hard.] ...of course he did.
[She takes a step or two away, then turns back again, putting a hand on Sora's arm.] You don't have to do this. You could tear the page out, or...
[Reki makes a slashing gesture of dismissal with one hand.] You don't have to do anything!
Sora... [She grimaces, and tries to calm her voice.] This House has so much power. It doesn't have to keep any promises to us. And it likes tricking us into hurting each other.
You don't have to choose to hurt anyone. [God, he's still so innocent...]
[And Reki's not aware of it, but those little black, diseased-looking spots are starting to spread across her bleached feathers again, almost fast enough to see with the naked eye.]
But it isn't your fault! [Reki grits her teeth. This is all so wrong. She points at the ceiling.] You shouldn't have to suffer because some...some bastard up there decided you deserved it!
I shouldn't... and neither should anyone else. [ shakes head, puts a hand on Reki's shoulder. ] It'll be ok. [ hits his chest; why do people do that anyway? ] trust me!
[Like Clarine, like Hyoko, like Kuromori. Trust him not to let the world hurt him, somehow. Reki feels sick, and smiles anyway. Who is she to be weak in front of him, a kid this brave and this good?]
Alright. [She smiles for him, and rests her hand on his.] Be careful.
Sora? [She tries for a reassuring smile instead.] You okay? What's going on?
