Waking the Dead 2.0 || August 19, 2063 || Friday

[icarusalsoflew]

[This one disappears for about thirty minutes, and returns as quietly as he left with two briefcases. He doesn't explain where he went, but from how he ducks into Hikaru's room for about fifteen minutes after that, it can probably be inferred that he fetched a few things from Falner.

Looks like he'll be staying at the Tower while he has taken control of his Brother's body. You're usually going to spot him hovering around, smoking, working through a glass of rum, eyes crimson-ringed and glowing oddly in all lights (or lack thereof) watching... who knows what he's watching? And that suit he's wearing - three-piece, black, pin-striped, with ghostly faces and smoke occasionally moving over the "fabric" - is pretty nice, creepiness aside.

Please excuse him if you find him suddenly popping in on you. It's just what he does.]


OOC Notes:
+ Drop starters as you please! I'll have Death haunt you accordingly. ♥
+ Feel free to do other stuff among yourselves here as well.
+ Do note that Makoto's out and solid for this evening too, so you can bug him or ping me if you want him to come around and bother you.

[Blinking at. Like, once or twice. You caught him in the middle of lighting up.

Okay. He's going to light up now.

There.]

I think this is one of the cases where you're definitely going to start form the beginning.

[Don't rely on the mind meld, man. He's been busy enjoying (temporary) life.]

[larue]

[ Okay then.

Yeah. How exactly to-- ] I think I just got [ --propositioned? Have a little more tact, LaRue, he was moving around in your boyfriend's body ( and eerily looking just like Hikaru at that last part ) when he did that. ]

Brother Death asked me how I was doing, if things were okay between me and Hikaru. Given that. You know. He's going to be around until the twenty-fifth.

[ Might as well start from the very beginning, right? ]

[shuryoinai]

[This just keeps getting more and more interesting. Also a little worrisome. Maybe.

He's not sure yet, time to wait for more details.]

And that somehow led him to saying "you can have sex with me"?

[How even.]

[larue]

[ Just. This Face.

Oh and: ] Pretty much.

[ He's shaking his head a little, and taking another puff. ]

[shuryoinai]

[Huh.

Leaning back now, fixing his gaze on the wall as he's sorting through all of this.

Hum.]

So you mean to tell me that Hikaru's told him nothing about sex.

[That is... surprising?]

[larue]

[ Sending you a look that pretty much goes Y E P. ]

That's what I got from him anyway. [ He's worrying a little on his bottom lip. ] He said that Hikaru couldn't show it to him or explain it effectively. At least where that and... desire... overlapped.

[ He's falling quiet for a moment. ]

But... yeah. [ Wow, this is so awkward. ]

[shuryoinai]

[Yep, pretty awkward --

-- for you, anyway.]

At least you're sure that he isn't that unwelcome observer peeping in on you whenever you two fuck...

[Just. Throwing that out there.]

[larue]

[ Did you just--

:| ]

You're horrible.

[shuryoinai]

And playing Captain Obvious really doesn't suit you.

[But are you feeling a little less out of sorts because he's horrible now? He sure hopes so.]

[larue]

[ He actually does, dammit, but that's a good thing so he's going to let humself fall back inti that bed and just... sigh. ]

It was the most awkward conversation I have ever had so far.

[ A minute pause, and then: ] There was a moment towards the end where he moved eerily like Hikaru. And I don't know about the others but I know that I wasn't just projecting.

[shuryoinai]

That's not too surprising. Hikaru's his primary teacher in the ways of humanity.

[Hum.]

Death probably doesn't even realize that he's being humanized at that deep of a degree just yet.
