Forty Seventh Star

...

In my world, the laws of nature are governed by 5 True Runes of Water, Fire, Wind, Lightning, and Earth...

When I was a little boy, we felt an earthquake in Gregminster. My mother, who was still alive at the time, told me it was the True Earth Rune yawning, heh...

I wonder how it is here? The Runes don't seem to have any presence in this place...

It my world, they're caused by things called tectonic plates.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

Well, it's the same like that in ours, too. True Earth simply governs over that.

[ilpresto.livejournal.com]

We have tons of earthquakes in Japan. Not all in a row like this, though...

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

Are you scared, Kazuki?

[ilpresto.livejournal.com]

Nuh-uh! It's just shaking.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

I could hold you if you get frightened. It's okay to admit it.

[ilpresto.livejournal.com]

Ha! You wish.

Pervert.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

How about we make a bet?

[ilpresto.livejournal.com]

About what?

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

He who is visibly scared first has to do the other a favor.

[ilpresto.livejournal.com]

Hey! That's not fair at all! You aren't afraid of anything!

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

That's not true. If you or the others are ever in danger, I tend to feel fear.

[ilpresto.livejournal.com]

But you don't show it unless it's really bad. And I'd definitely be scared by then!

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

I've jumped at sounds in the dark before. Don't be so flattering.

[ilpresto.livejournal.com]

You're just trying to make a bet you know you'll win.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

Am not.

[ilpresto.livejournal.com]

Are too!

And I bet there's some sort of weird, perverted favor you've got in mind!

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

Now that's just low!

[ilpresto.livejournal.com]

You're the one trying to make one-sided bets.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

I'm not the one insinuating that my boyfriend is some kind of dirty sex hound!

[gotguts.livejournal.com]

What is a "rune", exactly?

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

That's... not an easy question to answer.

[tenkai-shield.livejournal.com]

I don't think Grandfather every told us any stories like that.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

Your grandfather always seemed like a more practical man.

[tenkai-shield.livejournal.com]

He was but, still, hearing a story like that... well, as a child, it would've been nice.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

Yeah, probably...

[tenkai-shield.livejournal.com]

Hey... once I'm better, I'm going to get my chip out.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

...I imagine it was only a matter of time.

[tenkai-shield.livejournal.com]

Yeah. But... the doctor wants me to stay after the chip is out, for a week. Without any visitors...

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

...That seems more than a bit odd.

[tenkai-shield.livejournal.com]

Nanami's not going to like it at all...


Can you do me a favor Tir?

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

Sure thing, Riou.

[tenkai-shield.livejournal.com]

When I get it out... can you keep Nanami away... I don't want the doctor to be upset if she were to come in when she shouldn't.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

I'll certainly try.
