Call To Everyone | Mid-afternoon | Day 40

[1stguardian]

[This is the voice of a young man who's just slogged through hip-deep snow for a mile wearing clothes that weren't the least bit appropriate for the endeavor. It's also the voice of someone who's incredibly pissed off.]

All right, Riruka. I found your damn note. You spelled my name wrong, you illiterate idiot.So now what the hell am I supposed to

Comments

[shyeyed]

Mister Ichigo, why are you out in the snow...?

[1stguardian]

Huh?

[An uncertain pause, because that voice sounds familiar, and that's not possible. Right?]

Uh... I don't know. I just ended up in the middle of it.

[shyeyed]

[He pauses, before grabbing the phone book and looking Ichigo up. He's there all right.]

U-um...th-this is Hanataro Yamada. A-are you all right...? You're back. Here, in Bell Pointe.

[1stguardian]

[There's something bitter about the way he laughs at that.]

Can't be Hanataro. I couldn't talk to you if you were.

[deicidal]

Ah, and I had wondered if perhaps you'd run afoul of our sanity deficient neighbor. [A beat.] Again.

[1stguardian]

What?

[There's suspicion in his voice now. Suspicion and something a lot like hostility.]

I don't know what the fuck you think you're doing, Riruka, but it's not funny.

[deicidal]

As far as I'm aware, this... 'Riruka' isn't here.

[1stguardian]

I know you're not here. You're standing there outside the goddamn house, aren't you?

[Lower, now. And furious.]

Stop talking like him.

[persimmonsplz]

Ahh, it looks like I wasn't bein' lied to. Kurosaki-kun is around~

[1stguardian]

Okay, what the hell's going on? I swear, if this is some kind of "this was your life" shit...

[persimmonsplz]

It ain't like I've got the answers!

[1stguardian]

I thought you were dead.
