Second Dream - [Action]

[yumemi_kakyo]

[Kakyo is awake, lying in bed and staring blankly out of the window at the sky. He seems to be watching the falling rain, but there's no real way to tell what he's actually thinking from his face, it's pretty much expessionless.]

{OOC: Okay, I guess this will do as a post for the residents of House #45 to meet their new housemate?}

[Comes to check on him]

Ah, you're awake.

[Action]

[yumemi_kakyo]

[Turns to look at Kamui.]

...This place is...

[Action]

[broken_messiah]

This is my house here.

[Action]

[yumemi_kakyo]

[As he'd expected. But the real reason Kakyou had even spoken was:]

Why? I am the yumemi of the Dragons of the Earth, one of the Seven Angels. Why are you doing this?

[Action]

[broken_messiah]

Because... even though you are a Dragon of Earth. You have helped me so many times.

And for me, everything is already over. The Dragons of Earth and Heaven no longer matter.

[Action]

[yumemi_kakyo]

... [Kakyou turned back towards the window.]

...My wish... is to die.

[Action]

[broken_messiah]

...
... dying doesn't work here though. You just get brought back with a something missing. An ability. A memory.

[He's silent for a moment.] Do you want to go out for a look around? This place is rather beautiful in between experiments. I've found the wheelchair Lute used when... [Then he just trails off, his right hand covering his left one, touching and hiding the ring he still wears. A remainder of his attempt to find love here.]

[Action]

[yumemi_kakyo]

... [At Kamui's tone Kakyou will turn to look at him again. His eyes trailed from Kamui's face to his hands, then closed as he turned away.]

...Everything has become meaningless. My heart... has died.

...It's raining.

[Action]

[broken_messiah]

... but still, I'd rather you didn't die here... [Because Lute had died twice here, even Raenef has died once. People just keep dying in front of Kamui... like back home really.]

Aa. It is... What about after it stops?

[Action]

[yumemi_kakyo]

[Kakyou opened his eyes to stare out the window again, but did not speak for a long while. His expression and eyes were blank and faraway, as if he was thinking deeply of something.]

...Kamui.

[Action]

[broken_messiah]

[turns to look at him] Yes?

[Action]

[yumemi_kakyo]

[Still not looking at you.] ...I still cannot believe that the future has changed.

But...

[Action]

[broken_messiah]

It has, Kakyou.

But?

[Action]

[yumemi_kakyo]

...If Houkuto's, Kotori's and your words are true... if the future can be changed... if it hasn't been determined yet...

Then maybe... someday in the future... [The sentence trails off unfinished, but the implication is there.]

[Action]

[broken_messiah]

[And he's looking at you, waiting for you to finish that sentence, Kakyou.]

[Action]

[yumemi_kakyo]

[And he does, only in a very soft voice, as if talking to himself.]

...I can believe too...
