“Akira!”

If Ryo truly wished for Akira’s happiness, perhaps he would have just let Akira pass him and disappear into the darkness of the night. Akira was alive again after all. 

Ryo did not understand human emotions, or what exactly caused them to be happy but he was capable of deducing basic patterns, and it was obvious that at the root core of things all of the misery in Akira’s life came from his connection to him, that Ryo had dragged him into the world of devils.

All because of Ryo’s selfish desire, Akira had lost everyone. If Ryo simply disappeared from his life Akira would be happy. Even if those precious things did not return, then the person who dragged him into tragedy would at least stop forcing him through this path. Ryo knew this but still he...

He stood there as if nothing happened, as if they were standing on a bridge again reuniting after not seeing each other for a few years. As if they were old friends greeting one another, he opened up his great white coat and held out a hand. 

“Akira, I need you, come with me.” 

“Certainly, the attention is appreciated! Every Queen should be adored, after all. But something tells me you have no idea to whom your gaze is directed to, do you?”

     It was exhausting. Overwhelming. The news had finally settled over her and sat squarely on her shoulders, where it's weight felt like that of the entire world that had just come crashing down around her.

Had she known that their goodbyes that day would have held the danger of such permanency, she would have expressed her gratitude towards the others much more openly, in a way that would leave no doubts whatsoever that there was a place for them in her heart. Because if she was to be stuck in this city, then she would have to make the selfish and heart-wrenching wish to never see them again so that they may be spared this cruel fate.

She needed time to gather her thoughts, to plot out her next course of action. What better place to do this than the very apartment the Scientists had been so generous in assigning in order to commemorate her arrival?

Truly an unceremonious sort of affair; no announcement as she undoes the lock and allows herself inside, a quiet mumble asking to pardon her intrusion as she removes her shoes at the doorway. She hoped that there was a coffeepot waiting for her inside, because caffeine sounded like just the thing she needed at the moment to take the edge off her nerves.

The journey to the kitchen proves an eventful one, for it came with the revelation that this residence was to be a shared space.

Despite not currently being in the mood to partake in lively conversation, Naoto bows her head slightly in greeting to the boy that was rummaging through the refrigerator. It was only the right to do, and life here would only be easier if she could manage to get along with the people she was to board with.

“If I had known anyone was home, I would have announced myself. My apologies.”

She lifts her head, grasping the brim of her hat to keep it secured in place.

Icons in my style  (accepting!!)

“I can understand why you like this show so much, there’s so much crying in it.” Ryo could not imagine why he was doing an activity so domestic as watching television at Akira’s house. As adults it seemed they only ever spent time together to hunt demons. 

Ryo remembered once Akira dragged him into the pool on an impulse. It was always like that between the two of them. Akira tried to pull him into something, and Ryo would reluctantly follow. The only time Ryo took the lead was when he was throwing Akira to the sharks (or rather the demons) straight into the deep end in order to make him stronger. 

Send me “alt!” and I’ll introduce you to a character I’ve rped in the past, want to play in the future or are currently playing somewhere else! | (open!)

“Come on now, don’t be shy! Baranir doesn’t bite, so sit down and have a drink!”

Baranir glares, silently. Despite his scary expression, he really doesn’t seem to be doing much. Maybe he just doesn’t like people who don’t buy anything from his master?

While roaming the city, Himiko was inevitably drawn to the ominous and large hole she had briefly seen upon her entrance to this place. Of course, she noted other people too who had done the same, but only one that caught her eye. He was large, but just how old was he? She was curious, wondering if the boy was thinking the same thing she was.

Silently, Himiko found her way to Akira’s side, and made her presence known easily.

“Hey.”
