[ -- He can't sleep.

Maybe it's because the room used to belong to Joshua. Maybe it's because, after rooming with someone as loud as Kida, the quiet is jarring and unfamiliar. ... or, hell, maybe it's because one of his closest friends got stuffed into stasis and no one will tell him what the hell that is. Whatever the reason, it's 3AM and he's ( Read more... )

[ It takes a few minutes for him to reply; when he does, his voice is tired and quiet -- ]

... Yeah?

[ There's a long pause; he fumbles with what he's trying to say. ] it just startled me, i guess.

TEXT. unbarred July 23 2010, 21:38:02 UTC

Are you... going to be all right?

TEXT. em0phones July 23 2010, 22:43:13 UTC

Neku! [ BRB BEING HORRIFIED AT THIS. ]

VOICE. em0phones July 23 2010, 20:40:06 UTC

[ -- skjgdsfg. He's kind of surprised that this kid sounds so worried; I mean, they don't know each other that well, do they? ... It's kind of... nice, maybe. Still, his mind is still focused on the contents of that recording, so his voice sounds... distant, subdued. ]

... It's nothing. The beacons must be screwing up, or something. [ He sounds... a hell of a lot calmer than he feels. ]

[ Sora isn't convinced. Yeah, he may not be the sharpest crayon in the box, but he knows enough to know that someone wouldn't be okay after something like that. ]

It doesn't seem like nothing. [ I DON'T BELIEVE YOU. ]

VOICE. em0phones July 23 2010, 22:35:19 UTC

[ There's a pause, and then he sighs -- ]

It's in the past. It sucks, but there's no point dwelling on it, is there? Nothin' I can do to change it.

Is everything alright, Neku?

TEXT. /WATCHES THESE EDITS IN INBOX !! em0phones July 23 2010, 20:45:03 UTC

... it's okay. i'm okay.

[ His fingers are shaking faintly as he types, but -- he's okay, right? He's alive. ]

just didn't expect the trip down memory lane. ... sorry for broadcasting all this in the middle of the night.

text. STOP LOOKING AT MY FAILURES ///// eltneg July 23 2010, 20:49:31 UTC

I never alluded to expecting an apology, Neku. I don't require one.

I was simply concerned for your personal safety. [even when he's telling someone that he cares, Tieria manages to make it sound like it's fresh from a textbook. typical.]

TEXT. BUT I LIKE THIS CANDID VIEW OF YOU...! (blush) em0phones July 23 2010, 22:21:32 UTC

[ IT'S OKAY, TIERIA, HE UNDERSTANDS. ]

yeah, i know. it's just

what do you say after something like THAT i guess

Neku! Are you all right?

VIDEO. em0phones July 25 2010, 06:36:21 UTC

... I'm okay. [ He's shaking his head, even though the gesture is barely visible in the gloom of his room. ]

It was just... [ Deep breath. ] ... the beacon freaking out, or something.

VIDEO. not_the_pastry July 25 2010, 14:38:51 UTC

[She catches the gesture and bites her lip, frowning.]

Do you--want to talk about it? I mean, well...You didn't look okay. Especially on the beacon.

VIDEO. em0phones July 27 2010, 20:38:42 UTC

... Dunno if there's much to talk about. I think... I came to terms with what happened, but.

I don't really think about that much, I guess. [ He shrugs, a little uncomfortable. It's hard for him to be... open. ] So, seeing it again like this...
