002 ❀ And your World will Burn

[floreatnoctem.livejournal.com]

It seems I have been returned.

[Chidori's voice is quiet and impassive as usual, and she's as straight to the point as she's ever been. For a moment though, it seems as if that's all she's going to say, but then she takes a deep breath and continues.]

The world was... not as it was, when I was sent back. It is... concerning, to say the least.
If it is not too much, can anyone tell me roughly how long I was gone?

[Another pause, this one even longer, and then quieter still-]



...Minato. Are you still here?

Comments

A little more than just an inclination. But yes, that would be correct.

[floreatnoctem.livejournal.com]

[Oh Dualscar. Really, what in the world is your damage?]

Regardless of how you feel about it, I doubt the other party would feel the same. Especially if they're human.

[dualscars.livejournal.com]

The humans shouldn't be in that close of proximity, 'less they have some greater purpose.

Do you wish for an apology?

[floreatnoctem.livejournal.com]

Why not?


...and no. You have yet to bleed on anything of mine.

[dualscars.livejournal.com]

Because I'd hope to kill them, if not injure them severely.

--But if I ever do, however unthinkable the situation may be, it'd be best to prepare yourself for disappointment.

[floreatnoctem.livejournal.com]

Is that so. [Statement. Not a question.] That is a shame.

[You would have made an excellent sketching subject.]

But I'll keep that in mind.

[dualscars.livejournal.com]

Very good.

[floreatnoctem.livejournal.com]

I will, however, expect you to replace what you bleed on.

[She's just messing with him now, but I mean really, he kind of asked for it.]

[dualscars.livejournal.com]

[dualscar? take something lightly?? preposterous!]

It depends on what you were doin' in the first place. Perhaps I'd consider.

[floreatnoctem.livejournal.com]

...meaning if it were to happen while keeping you from bleeding all over everything else?

[Always blunt, but there's an amused edge there. Are you being somewhat civil at the moment Dualscar?]

[dualscars.livejournal.com]

[... basically]

Meanin' that it was for the greater good, yes.

[floreatnoctem.livejournal.com]

[You're really too easy sometimes, man.]

Understood. But try and keep those occasions to a minimum. I really would prefer that you not bleed at all.

[Crazy humans and their batshit empathy or whatever.]

[dualscars.livejournal.com]

[goddamn buncha weirdos]

It is not somethin' done purposely, but I'll look into it.

[floreatnoctem.livejournal.com]

It is appreciated. I do prefer my subjects less... bloodied.

[dualscars.livejournal.com]

Your "subjects"?

[floreatnoctem.livejournal.com]

Art.

[clarification. he is not entirely sure what to make of this, to be honest. of course he is a handsome guy, who the fuck wouldn't want to sketch him and whatnot, but...]

[floreatnoctem.livejournal.com]

Already have been.

[She has a very good memory, Dualscar.]

when/why the fuck did i switch to text

[dualscars.livejournal.com]

[ ... ]

I see. Then I suppose you may continue as long as I remain free from disturbances, and they, accurate.

[gosh it's not like he's weirdly flattered or anything!! though if he ever happens upon one, let's hope chidori knows how to embellish things...]

you switched to text? /halo

[floreatnoctem.livejournal.com]

I will try my best to continue to be discreet.

[No embellishments, just honesty- sorry Dualscar.]
