[heavenfang]

N-no... not that many... it was never that many...

It will stop. I promise it will. The killing will stop. It's gone. Burried in the lake...

STOP COUNTING! STOP, DAMNIT!

I SAID STOP IT!!!

-There is a loud crash as Tir is obviously destroying the walls of his own apartment-

...where's Kazuki. please tell me...

Latimir 313...

[Commentlog] agksld sorry it's so late

[surelyalright.livejournal.com]

[And soon enough, she knocks on his door, bandages in hand.]

[Commentlog] no worries

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

The door's unlocked...

-He's just sitting in a corner, knees to his chest. He's looking out the window to keep himself form having to look at the walls, the numbers still appearing at slow intervals-

[Commentlog]

[She quickly opens the door and rushes over to him, kneeling down a bit to look him in the eyes. Before she does, however, her attention is averted to the numbers on the wall, and they keep going up...

Did she hear something about killing? Maybe it was just her imagination. Regardless, she looks straight at him.]

Tir-san...

-Tir looks up to her wearily, shadows reflected in his eyes. What light had been there before was currently far too dimmed by the crash caused by the ghosts. He was obviously in a great deal of pain, but... he'd run out of ways to show it.

There were cuts all over his hand. Little white pieces of plaster and drywall decorating it like snow.-

[She's ready to begin crying again, but she knows she has to concentrate on his hand first. She's no expert at first-aid, but...

First it has to be cleaned up. She rushes into his kitchen and gets a wet cloth before returning.

Very carefully, she takes his hand and starts cleaning it up.]

Miss Sakura...

-He looks over to her, the shadow of a smile on his face-

You're so kind... even in a place like this...

[Commentlog]

[surelyalright.livejournal.com]

[She continues cleaning his hand and forces the best smile she can manage through welled up tears.]

T-There's not much I can do, but if I can even help a little bit of the pain go away, it will be worth it...

[Sniffle. She wipes her eyes on her sleeve and starts bandaging his hand.]

[Commentlog]

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

You do... because I know that... before... I had helped save you. I was able to do some good in this world...

-He could just be babbling. It's hard to tell. But it's obvious he isn't lying...-

[Commentlog]

[surelyalright.livejournal.com]

You--

T-Thank you...

[Commentlog]

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

So I'm not just... I'm not some killer...

but one life saved cannot make up for so many lost...

[surelyalright.livejournal.com]

[surelyalright.livejournal.com]

But...

[Commentlog]

[surelyalright.livejournal.com]

T-Tir-san had a reason, right? You wouldn't--

[Commentlog]

[surelyalright.livejournal.com]

...

[And the tears flow again.]

[Commentlog] Done!

[surelyalright.livejournal.com]

[Without thinking about it, she quickly hugs Tir.]

And y-you know that killing is w-wrong, so...
