Well, this is certainly a surprise.

[Not without a certain bazooka. Except, five minutes have long passed. There was no sign of Lambo in the park he was currently exploring.

Definitely not the bazooka's doing. Unless it was broken again. In that case, he should find a certain cow-print pajama wearing kid.

For all of those who know a certain failboat

[For a longer moment Ruca is wondering: to say something or not. The person on the feed the person looks familiar, but...]

...Tsuna?

[...Maybe he's from that parallel timeline, Tsuna told him about?]

[cielo_infinito]

Ah--

[Tsuna blinks, shifting through the memories he had received of his younger self after making a rather unfortunate wish of "I wish I knew what was going on"

He smiles]

...Ruca-kun.

[demonicbookworm]

...It's really you. [It sounds more like a question than a statement though.]

But... how...?

[cielo_infinito]

I'm...not really sure myself.

[fiammedelcielo]

[He's not yet experienced watching over Tsuna as he grows up, yet. Not since he last remembers as a spirit inhabiting the Vongola Sky ring. But even without intuition of his own, he would recognize this young man anywhere (nevermind that their appearances are...incredibly similar). He finds him, having no need for a cumbersome communicator, and he doesn't bother trying to hide the pride he feels seeing his young descendant all grown up. A magnificent leader of the family, strong and benevolent. Everything he had hoped for.]

Children do indeed grow up so very fast.

[cielo_infinito]

[A quiet laugh. He takes in that look and he can't quite step on that bubbly warm feeling. In some ways, he really hasn't grown up at all. But, to have Primo be proud of him--it's a good feeling, really, knowing he has been doing the right thing]

Sometimes, a little too fast.

[fiammedelcielo]

[he is so very proud, just seeing you like this. If he'd ever doubted his own decision (which, for the record, he hasn't), seeing Tsuna like this would make all of those doubts disappear.]

Oh?

[cielo_infinito]

People should make the most of their childhood while they still can, right?

NEVER USELESS

[cielo_infinito]

[Lovely to see you too, Squalo.

Has a feeling someone has sort of freaked out on him on the seal. Huh]

voice.

[illusoriamente]

[Impossible.

When he first hears that voice over the seal he only warrants the broadcast attention under the assumption that it belonged to a certain acquaintance of his. However, the face that greets him-- while similar in both structure and disposition is decidedly not that of his former boss.

Needless to say his feelings on this development are less than positive. This Sawada isn't supposed to exist. Even in that timeline when he is supposed to be long dead. A testament to the failed policies of Vongola Primo buried six feet under.

And yet here he is now, clearly alive and pleased with himself.]

... rumors of your death have been widely exaggerated I see. [While his response sounds polite it would be difficult to miss the venom in his voice.]

voice

[reluctant10th]

[It's not a voice Tsuna recalls at the top of his head. But it does strike him as familiar and it takes him a few seconds to place it.

The quiet fondness he had greeted everyone else with is missing from his voice. He notes the venom but keeps his own tone even. Neutral. Fitting for a stranger]

As rumors tend to be.

voice

[illusoriamente]

[What's this? You're sparing him that tiresome indulgent act? How kind of you.]

Regrettably. Perhaps someone should correct these nasty rumors before they get out of hand. [He'll gladly volunteer.]

[cielo_infinito]

[You know him. One of the kindest mafia bosses to walk the earth]

I'm quite content to leave them as they are. After all, they are only rumors. Those who don't know the truth yet will know the truth soon enough.

voice.

[soreloserchan]

Now there's a face I haven't seen in a while~.

[He liked you better in a coffin :(]

[cielo_infinito]

[gross, your voice is not refreshing at all to listen to]

And here's a voice I did not think I would hear again.

[he liked you better when you were just ashes]

[soreloserchan]

[stfu Tuna, he has the most refreshing voice]

I like to exceed all expectations, naturally.

[he is the mighty phoenix etc etc.]

[cielo_infinito]

[it sounds like nails on a chalk board]

It wouldn't be that difficult, seeing how low they are for you.

[oh really?]
