[If you think Youji looks out of place sitting in a field of grass, you're right. As he turns on his Dreamberry, he can be heard muttering things about grass stains and his gratitude that his expensive Armani slacks are not here if one listens carefully.

Slightly easier to perceive is the brief look of surprise on his face, as he sees the date. He shakes his head and gives the camera a lightly wry smile.]


Does anyone ever get tired of hearing 'I've been asleep for a week, what did I miss?' Permit me to shake things up a bit. Last I knew, it was February, and I was in my apartment. Now it's June, and I'm in the middle of the field.

I've lost nights before, but this is pushing it just a bit.

[He smiles genially.]

A lesser man would probably give up drinking at this turn of events, but thankfully, I'm not that fragile.

[Private to Weiss]

I don't expect explanations, but something cold and stiff would be appreciated. And nothing work related is meant by that.

Welcome back, Youji.

[Look who grew up while you were gone.]

Hello, handsome.

[identity profile] slantedcross.livejournal.com 2011-06-06 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, that was... cordial. And to the point.]

I don't like that word, 'back.'

[identity profile] beyondweiss.livejournal.com 2011-06-06 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
And yet it applies.

Somehow I knew I would hear from you before any woman.

[identity profile] prettyhazknight.livejournal.com 2011-06-06 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
I missed you too dear~

[identity profile] slantedcross.livejournal.com 2011-06-06 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Raises eyebrow.]

It must. Your hair's shorter than when I saw you last, but longer than when I left the Academy and wound up in Somarium.

[And that is as close as he is going to get to asking about the future.]

I was gone from here for about a week. I came back recently.

[identity profile] slantedcross.livejournal.com 2011-06-06 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
'Missed.' Missed implies I was gone, not randomly asleep.

No contact, no touching your lovely backside, no speaking to you...

I believe that means I can miss you.

Fascinating. Our situation don't seem to be related. Clearly my hair is still the same length.

[He pauses for a beat, then just--]

Have you finished the Koua Academy mission? I can only imagine some time has passed for you. You look it.

[identity profile] slantedcross.livejournal.com 2011-06-06 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
I'm rather amused by the order you classed those in.

That mission was three years ago for me.

[identity profile] prettyhazknight.livejournal.com 2011-06-06 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
It was an important order. Though I almost put the second one first.

...some time, all right.

That's one way to put it.

[identity profile] slantedcross.livejournal.com 2011-06-06 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
Somehow I fail to be surprised.

Have I missed anything exciting?

I suppose your ban on all future knowledge is still in place?

[identity profile] prettyhazknight.livejournal.com 2011-06-06 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
Other than me?

Draco's birthday party is going on right now, he has a boyfriend that isn't his boyfriend, everyone missed you, I'm still cute, my relationship status changed...

If you need to know, I'll tell you. Otherwise, yes.

[Youji nods. Even smiles a bit.]

There's really only one thing important enough to ask.

I gave it back to you, didn't I? In the real world?

[He shrugs and smiles his devil-may-care smile.]

None of the rest matters to me, honestly. I made my choices, I'll live them when the time comes. I'll live. If only for one reason, I'll live.

E~verything happens in three months.

That last one. Who's the victim?

[Aya gives him a smile for that but there's no sadness to be found there.]

You did. [Through someone else and without remembering him but that isn't the point.]

[identity profile] prettyhazknight.livejournal.com 2011-06-06 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
Now, now~ He's not a victim~
