A week. Actually looking at the date on the Dreamberry, it's been a lot longer then that since his run in with Spain. A couple of days since his nightmare. The one that still haunts his mind almost every waking moment ( Read more... )

Rena was passing through Espoir like she usually did when she saw someone that caught her by surprise. Keiichi, walking alone down the street. It had been so long since she had seen him or even spoken with him.

It hurt her to see Keiichi in so much pain. She didn't know how, but she knew that had to make things right once and for all. He couldn't continue to be weighed down by this guilt.

A bit cautiously, Rena walked towards him. "Keiichi...?"

Hearing his name and the voice that said it behind him made him come to a complete stop in an instant. In that second, he thought of whether he should run but put that thought away immediately. He couldn't do it forever.

With that decision, he turned around to face her, a bit of a sad look on his face even though he tried to put a smile on. "Hey..."

bigassmachete January 16 2010, 04:18:48 UTC

She could tell that Keiichi had wanted to continue going, but she was glad he had decided to acknowledge her. Seeing that fake smile, she couldn't help but put on one of her own.

"Hey...it's been a long time since I've seen you, it had."

homerun_k1 January 16 2010, 15:59:13 UTC

"Y-Yeah..." he replied hesitantly to Rena. Looks like she was doing the same thing as he was. Keiichi took a minute to look down at the ground in thought. He...had to say something.

"I'm sorry, Rena." he said while he looked back up to her, sad expression not leaving his face.

Spain was out walking.

Had Rita known he was out walking, she probably would have killed him. Or flailed and worried and yelled a lot, and Spain didn't want that. But...He also didn't want to be cooped up in bed in the mansion any longer. So all he was getting was some quick fresh air. Then he would go back and rest.

Besides, after the visit from Doctor Stiles, he was feeling a little better, thanks to his help and Rita's. Thanks to ther efforts, he had been bandaged up and patched up as well as he possibly could be at that point.

When he saw Keiichi, Spain drew in a sharp breath, wincing ever so slightly as his ribs protested. But things couldn't stay this way between them, so he stepped towards him.

"Keiichi?"

homerun_k1 January 16 2010, 16:06:45 UTC

Keiichi froze the instant he heard that voice, eyes wide in disbelief as he never thought Spain would be out-and-about yet. On the inside he was panicking a bit, not sure what to say or what to do-!

Regardless, he can't bring himself to look at him or say anything, still ashamed of himself and what he did. Yet, at the same time he can't bring himself to run away from him.

Keiichi merely glares down at the ground, back facing Spain all the while not saying a word.

Keiichi's reaction made Spain wince more, not from physical pain, but something else entirely. It hurt him to see his friend act like this to him, especially because...Well, Spain had forgiven him the moment he had realized what had happened. He never had blamed Keiichi for what he had done, never. But it was clear that Keiichi blamed himself.

"...Keiichi...Are you okay?" Spain finally asked, quiet, voice sad.

homerun_k1 January 17 2010, 03:02:16 UTC

At that, he made a slow turn around to face him with a serious face on. He knew Spain was a nice guy but he had no idea it extended this far.

"I should be asking that, not you." saying something at last, though obviously in disbelief and frustration.

[Coincidentally, she's also wandering the length of Espoir, taking stock of the location markers and noting down whether she spies any changes of any sort. Keeping track of one's surroundings and careful tabs on the inhabitants help in terms of getting ahead of current events. If there are any abnormalities, she wants to ensure that she isn't caught flat-footed.

Meeting Keiichi on the road, however, was entirely unexpected.

Spain.

There's an awkward pause, before she huffs.]

Hey.

It's been a while.

homerun_k1 January 17 2010, 02:58:51 UTC

[Caught completely off guard cause now that he thinks about it, it's been a long time since he's seen her last. Still...with what happened, it's been awhile since he's seen anyone.

He turns to face her, surprised yet cautious]

Y-Yeah...

kyudousha January 17 2010, 03:01:21 UTC

[... she doesn't know how to deal with it.

A while ago, she might've considered frying him on the outset, but now that she truly considered her options, it wouldn't be fair. She was guilty too, just with different people, and double-standards shouldn't apply like this.

But... she has to do something, right?

Now, it's just a matter of figuring out why.]

I'm... going to walk with you for a bit.

If you don't mind, that is. I guess.

homerun_k1 January 17 2010, 03:06:16 UTC

[...He honestly had a horrible feeling about this but he knew running away from her now would just make things worse.

Keiichi had a feeling that Rita knew what happened so...this was practically inevitable.]

...It's fine.

[And with that begins walking again with a solemn expression on his face in a random direction]
