craven castle: private conversation, week 8, monday

WHO: Nanami & Kuzuryuu.
WHEN: Week 8, Monday afternoon.
WHAT: Mostly sobbing tbh. Sorry, Kuzuryuu.

[ Nanami had just gone out for a walk before being stopped to chat with Apollo. It didn't last long, and her escape route was the Dragon Wing, even though Sebastian was there and Sebastian was probably going to be on board Kill The DKs Systematically, but the Dragon Wing was also where her room was. And where Kuzuryuu's room was. She didn't think Kuzuryuu had gone anywhere that morning as of yet, but if he had...

Trying not to think about it, Nanami just knocks on his door, almost pounding instead, and without a single tune like she'd normally do. She's quite probably about to burst into tears. Actually, as soon as the door opens she probably will burst into tears.

Sorry, Kuzuryuu. ]
impheired: donated to the space program so they can finally see what a black hole looks like up close. (sultry ♚ when i die i want my heart)

[There is no answer from inside the room because I am a terrible person. Kuzuryuu is taking a bath, sorry Nanami, you're gonna have to wait a minute or two.]
impheired: i'm like a feral dog rabidly chasing an infrequent dream amidst a cataclysm of disaster. (shock ♚ i've fucked up.)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-22 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
[At least Kuzuryuu will feel like shit for his mundane's sake. Because, sure enough, a few minutes later, the door at the end of the hallway opens up and there he is. THANKFULLY, he's dressed and not walking around in a bathrobe or anything like that. Just a dress shirt and pants, with a towel around his shoulders.]

[He's calm enough, until he spots Nanami sitting in front of his door and-- is she crying?]


Nanami?! [Yup, okay, running over there now. The towel's just kind of dropping awkwardly in the hallway and someone Sebastian will probably be confused about that later. But all Kuzuryuu really cares about right now is figuring out what the fuck happened. WHO MADE NANAMI CRY.]
impheired: mouse traps and brownies on my porch? (unsure ♚ just wondering. did you put)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-22 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
[Don't worry, he had no intention of standing out awkwardly in the hallway where Sebastian could potentially hear whatever this is. Because, seriously, Fuck That Guy.]

[Kuzuryuu was not expecting the hug though, so he's even more out of sorts than he normally is when people try this thing on him. That and he's having trouble connecting "I went for a walk" to "I am crying now". He pats her back awkwardly a few times before trying to pull away a little so he can get his keys out of his pocket and get his door open.]


C'mon, we'll talk in here...
impheired: on the surface but deep inside, i'm actually angrier (angry ♚ i may seem like an angry person)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-22 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
[It's quite a jump to make, even for Kuzuryuu. Once they're inside though, he'll lead Nanami over to the bed and sit her down on the edge of it, taking the seat next to her. If she wants to keep clinging, she's apparently more than welcome to. Even if she doesn't though, she's getting an arm around her.]

What!? Who? Whose fucking plan is this!? I want names!!

[He...honestly isn't all that mad for his own sake. He's okay with dying at this point, like he sort of hinted at in the last DK meeting. But talling Nanami something like this apparently Crosses A Line.]

[He's not yelling at you, Nanami, honest. He's furious on your behalf.]

impheired: "you have to pick your battles." well i'm full of rage and i'm picking all of them. (angry ♚ my mom likes to tell me)

[Kuzuryuu's quiet as he listens to her, not moving his arm from its place around her shoulder. When he finally does speak, his voice is little more than a hiss.]

...That fucking bastard. [Okay, it's a hiss for like three words.] Beneficial?! How'd he even figure out it was you!? Wait, that doesn't matter. Forget I asked. I'll figure out who all that shithead has roped into this, don't worry. I'll...
impheired: on instagram. if i'm not already the shame of my family, i'm about to be. (angry ♚ my little sister found me)

[He seems to come to some kind of conclusion the more he rants. Whatever it is, it seems to start putting out a bit of his fire and he makes one of his weird choking noises.]
Edited 2014-07-22 04:39 (UTC)
impheired: how admirable it was that i felt comfortable going out with my friends dressed "like that" (sigh ♚ my little sister just told me)

3/3

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-22 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
[He doesn't speak again until he rides out this train of thought to its most logical conclusion. His voice is much quieter once again, resigned yet frustrated.]

...shit.

[Yeah he can't actually confront Apollo about any of this, can he? Not without seeming suspicious as fuck and potentially making the situation even worse.]
impheired: yeah, like five in my neck. (sigh ♚ ‘do u have kinks’?)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-22 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
He wanted to warn you about it? Like he's doing you some kind of goddamn favor?? [GODDAMMIT APOLLO.] Of all the...

[He sighs, squeezing Nanami tightly.] Let me handle Yukimura and Peixes, alright? I'll let 'em know to keep their guard up, even tough we...all know Peixes won't be dying this week. Or at all, if I've got anything to say about it.

[He pulls back a little so that he can try and wipe Nanami's eyes with his sleeve since FOR ONCE HE DOESN'T HAVE HIS GODDAMN HANDKERCHIEF ON HIM.] You just worry about you for now, alright? Go lay down in your room for a bit or something. Leave the rest to me.

impheired: on me 'cause i got an abrasive personality and am a lil ugly, but that's ok 'cause those are my best qualities. (happy ♚ no one ever has a crush)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-22 05:35 am (UTC)(link)
What're you apologizing to me for? I'd like to see 'em try and pick me off. They're seriously fuckin' underestimating me if they think they can do it just like that! [He's been immune the past two weeks in a row and once before that as well. Come at him, bros.]

Don't you worry about us. We'll be fine, alright? Trust me.
Edited 2014-07-22 05:36 (UTC)
impheired: it has your blood all over it, but i am at a funeral home and they are using embalming fluid to get the stains out. (happy ♚ p.s. i wore your shirt today.)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-22 06:05 pm (UTC)(link)
You're not a villain. They can give you all the cheesy, cliched titles they want, but it doesn't make you a bad person.

[He smiles a little bit.]

I'm going to do my best to try and make sure you can do that someday.

[Okay, look, he already promised you that he's not going to let you get sucked back into this game again. HE CAN'T GO AROUND MAKING TOO MANY PROMISES THAT HE MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO KEEP OTHERWISE HE'LL BE THE NEXT SPAIN. And we do not want that, so...]
Edited 2014-07-23 00:09 (UTC)
impheired: because it has 2x as much ass as any other word. (happy ♚ i like the word assassin)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-23 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. And I gotta go see if I can round up Yukimura and Peixes. Pretty sure the latter'll be at the lake. If I'm lucky, they'll both be there.

[He gets to his feet, offering his hand to Nanami to help her up if she needs it. Even though she's...just...sitting on the bed.]

I'll come check on you in a bit, alright? Try not to worry too much. Trust me, everything's gonna be fine.
impheired: it has your blood all over it, but i am at a funeral home and they are using embalming fluid to get the stains out. (happy ♚ p.s. i wore your shirt today.)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-23 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
We will, don't worry. All three of us are more than capable of handling ourselves. Like I said, they'll have a hell of a time taking any of us out.

[And with that, he'll walk her to the door and see her out. And...walk her over to her room even though it's like five steps away. What a gentleman.]
impheired: it's not like you're wearing pants either. (blush ♚ i don't see why you're so upset.)

[personal profile] impheired 2014-07-23 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
[NOW LOOK. DID HE HAVE ANY WAY OF KNOWING SOMEBODY WAS GOING TO SET THEM UP THE BOMB?]

[Sadly, he's back to his usual self of not reciprocating hugs now that Nanami's not crying anymore. Apparently that's the trick to get him to show physical affection? Cry on him. Good to know. He does pat her on the back a few times though, somewhat stiffly.]


Yeah, yeah. See 'ya later. Now go relax for a bit. Let me handle it from here.
