10. January 4th, wee hours of the morning. [Action/Video]

Nov 29, 2011 13:16

[Those that live in Fatality Condominiums may hear a bit more noise than usual this morning while someone repeatedly opens and closes doors in one apartment, going up and down the stairs inside it, as if making a hundred laps of the small space will change what he sees. The noise finally stops as he stops, as it sinks in that he can't really deny ( Read more... )

[he keeps his expression carefully sympathetic, despite not having known the two that had been sent home well at all.]

I'm sorry for your loss.

[Gai nods.]

Thank you.

Still, at least they are away from the danger here? Unless your home world is even worse...

They are headed to the frontlines of a war. And even more, Lee is positioned with me and Kakashi, and is going back without us.

...You alright?

[Grump. Not that he y'know. Cares or anything. /tsun]

[Video] spandexisyouth November 29 2011, 19:40:55 UTC

[There's a pause. He's not sure how honest to be. Gai doesn't like being vulnerable, but he does support others...]

He is going back to the front lines of a war, and I am not there with him as I should be. ...And I already miss him.

[Video] toomanypetals November 29 2011, 20:16:38 UTC

Hn... You were close.

[This makes all the sense in the world to him. Being a soldier himself--who often fights away from his comrades and friends-- it's not like he can't empathize.]

[And maybe he's stating the obvious, but he doesn't really know what Gai and Lee's relationship was like. Close comrades? Teacher and student? He has no idea, so he's leaving an opening for any kind of discourse on it.]

[Video] spandexisyouth November 30 2011, 02:06:36 UTC

He is...

[Student isn't as much of a term. Gai has many students, and while Lee, Tenten, and Neji are all more to him, Lee's even more.]

Lee is very much... [Words are hard for this.] Yes. He is very precious to me.

[Mitsunari seems to have calmed down from his own outburst but the bruising is still evident on his face.]

...They have taken someone from you as well?

[video] spandexisyouth November 29 2011, 19:46:54 UTC

My student, Lee, and another from our world. Lee is very precious to me.

[video] reverencing November 29 2011, 19:51:12 UTC

Hmn... [He gives a light hum.] I see...

They have taken someone of significance to me as well.

[video] spandexisyouth November 29 2011, 19:57:17 UTC

I am sorry. I do not know what else to say. I would offer support, but I have none to give right now. So many have left in the last couple of days, and if anything BREW should have wanted to keep Lee and the Kazekage here. I do not get it.

[She's still in a daze and has spent most of the day staring blankly at the floor while lost in her own head with Bold. The loss has hit them hard.

She still finds it hard to speak, hesitating as she turns the video on and rubs at her tear-stained face]

Gai-san... [What is she supposed to say? Her shoulders hunch and she draws into herself a little more, feeling the threat of tears again]

video; spandexisyouth November 29 2011, 20:09:40 UTC

[He's at home by this time, having spent the day stalking his other students when not following Kakashi around. Gai just looks tired.]

Lain. I know you were close to him. Them. I met you because of Lee. How...

[He doesn't know what to say either.]

video; wiredgod November 30 2011, 05:11:07 UTC

[She shakes her head slowly. She hasn't been taking this well at all]

Bold can't even be angry... [Which is the bad thing here, because Bold's default response to these things is anger; breaking her computers or flipping tables. But she can't find the strength to even yell or stomp about now.

Lain presses her hands against her face] Why...?

video; spandexisyouth November 30 2011, 05:35:12 UTC

[Why. If Gai knew that... But he didn't. And he's fairly good that Bold not being angry is a healthier thing, but he's not sure.]

If I had an answer, he would not be gone.

[A part of him is missing now, after all.]

[It's a terrible message to wake up to, and Neji regards the feed with a somber look for several moments. But in the end, he can't think of much to say and just shakes his head with a sigh]

Unfortunate...

video; spandexisyouth November 30 2011, 02:14:14 UTC

[He's silent. He could scold Neji for the coldness, but he doesn't have the heart for it right now. He's more stressed then when a just-operated-on Lee went out on a mission.]

Lee...

video; heavenly_earth November 30 2011, 02:29:03 UTC

I know.

[Quiet acknowledgement- acceptance even- because he can check without actually crossing the hall, could sweep the whole city and know he won't find his teammate and best friend. Gai would never lie about something like this though, and the man's distress over his student's plight is plain. At last, he digs up something that sounds vaguely like reassurance]

..He'll be fine, and so will we.

video; spandexisyouth November 30 2011, 02:48:30 UTC

Neji!

[And now he's crying, but it's Manly Tears this time.]

Thank you! Would you like to come over? I would like to hug you.
