[RL with Zechs, Tyki and Rufus]

[clockmaster]

Hakuba shivered, the weather wasn't any better now than when he left Gaia a few days ago. He nearly killed himself driving the iced road, he still needs more driving lessons. The detective couldn't use the flying broom, he gave it to that demon woman, Trish, anticipating that Elphaba would not mind. He imagined that the witch would symphatize with another woman who was being hunted like her, and, after all, the broom will fly back to it's original owner if something goes wrong. If not, he would just have to deal with another psychopathic friend.

The boy realy hoped that all was going well on the Ark...Tyki was really alive, and he remembered Zechs and the community. Such a relief. Hakuba was still worried and a bit scared, but damn him if he was going to left that kind of emotions to take control. Hakuba was in front of Zechs's door now, he had the keys of the apartmen, but he hesitated. Zechs was less than joyful when he prevented him to go to his lover's side for the second time. Knowing that trying to trying to delay the inevitable was useless, he opened the door carefully.

"Zechs?"

Tyki felt bad for having been so harsh to his lover, and worried that this fight might very well be their last. Only the fact that Zechs was still holding him reassured him, and that feeling was one he had dreamed about every time he'd slept. At least, once he'd recovered enough to recall who he was.

"I'm glad it wasn't so long for you," he said softly. The toll had obviously been high enough. Tyki had been worried about Zechs, but he hadn't expected it to be this bad. If he'd been gone another six weeks, who knew if Zechs would even be himself anymore?

He didn't know how to answer Zechs' question. He feared the answer would only make things worse. He hesitated, then leaned against his lover, pressing his forehead against his shoulder. "I wanted you there every minute," he said softly. "I wanted you to rescue me, to come here and be with you. But I wasn't in any danger, and I likely would have harmed you. My Duke only took the restraints off a week ago."

He was quiet for a moment, before adding heavily. "I failed. Spectacularly. But I guess you saw that... Debitt told me that the community saw a recording."
