3rd Hat Flip [Voice/Action] Backdated to right after the draftees return

Dec 19, 2011 19:50

[Voice]

[ There's a brief pause after Firo turns on the journal. It's more difficult than he thought to make the announcement; when he tried writing it out he found he could barely move the pencil. He decides to keep it brief and just manages to keep most of the emotion out of his voice. ]

Seto's dead.

[Action]

[ Shortly after his journal post Firo ( Read more... )

[Ouka hears the sound of a fist striking bark and she slows down in her walk back to the house in order to see where it came from. ....what did that poor tree do to you Firo 8(]

...Excuse me.

[ Firo's so wrapped up in his own emotions that her sudden arrival doesn't startle him, and it takes him a moment to respond. He lets his arm fall to his side as he turns around, staring warily at Ouka. ]

What?

[action] keepsthelight December 22 2011, 05:57:45 UTC

[She pauses. He's obviously bothered about something, and she doesn't know whether or not it's her place to ask...]

...Are your hands alright?

immamartillo December 22 2011, 22:04:53 UTC

[ He blinks and stares at her uncomprehending. With his thoughts elsewhere, he barely notices the stinging in his scraped knuckles. ]

Are my..? What're you talkin' about?

[ After another short moment of thought. ]

Who are you?

H-He's what?!

[Roji doesn't know why he even asked that. He heard the boy loud and clear. Maybe he's just in brief denial. That innocent, kind kid...why did it have to be him? Why does it have to happen to anyone?

As always with this situation, he was somewhat prepared for the possibility...but preparedness still doesn't make it any easier.]

Er, I apologize. I'll keep a lookout for his return...

[What else can he say?]

[voice] immamartillo December 20 2011, 20:42:07 UTC

[ Firo was just about to retort when Roji apologizes. He should be trying to have more sympathy- he was just as stunned- but won't bring himself to. There's a pause and Firo sighs quietly. ]

Thanks. Do you have any idea how long it'll take..?

[voice] magicwarding December 21 2011, 03:02:08 UTC

[He swallows hard, trying to keep his cool.]

Well, when it happened to someone else I know, he came back about a week later. So...I'm guessing it'll be the same for Seto.

[voice] immamartillo December 21 2011, 03:07:54 UTC

A week.

[ He thinks that over, wondering how long it will feel. ]

...Do you know what happens during that time?

[ It kills him to think of Seto being stuck, alone with the Malnosso. ]

Wait, Seto?! Y-ya mean that nice kid who came to watch cartoons on Oswald Day, and wanted ta borrow my DVD player?

[Voice] immamartillo December 20 2011, 20:43:36 UTC

Yeah, that sounds like him. H-he was on the Draft and...

[ He trails off, not wanting to elaborate on the details of the event. ]

[Voice] kingofwaste December 20 2011, 21:52:21 UTC

But... He's comin' back, right? ...That's how it works, right?

[Voice] immamartillo December 20 2011, 22:42:33 UTC

O-of course he's comin' back! That's how it worked for other people, right?

[Did he hear that right? Seto was....Seto was dead?]

He'll...he'll come back, right? The guide said people can't really die here and...

[...Then again, he died while outside the village, would it still count?]

[Voice] immamartillo December 20 2011, 20:55:55 UTC

[ The only thing that had been making this easier was that Firo had thought Seto's eventual return was set in stone. Kazuma's question makes him wonder if he missed some important piece of information. His voice rises as he starts to panic, completely ignoring Kazuma's second statement. ]

But... he has to come back!

calm_emerald December 21 2011, 06:50:21 UTC

Well--people do, right? After a week? [It's not like Kazuma knows this first hand, he was hoping Firo would know D8]

immamartillo December 21 2011, 11:54:57 UTC

Well... That's what I've heard. People wouldn't make somethin' like that up, right?

Seto is...

[Voice] immamartillo December 20 2011, 21:00:50 UTC

He's dead.

[ Firo's attempt at keeping his voice from shaking makes the reiteration come out harsher than he meant it to. ]

A Third Party guy killed him on the Draft.

[Voice] ratatosk_knight December 21 2011, 01:16:12 UTC

But... I promised him he could have Christmas dinner with us...

[Voice] immamartillo December 21 2011, 01:35:51 UTC

To be honest, I think that's the least of his concerns right now.

[ Sorry, Emil, Firo's not in the friendliest of moods. ]
