[well, yeah. That's a given. :/ Poor Ran.]

[shuffle of movement as he shifts to put his hand over it] Yeah. It's just a scar now.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

[yes, we need to cheer her up]

I'm glad to know that is fine...yu will end looking like map though.

[kendo-taisho.livejournal.com]

[complete deadpan] My goal is to become a perfect scale map of Osaka.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

You have all my support.

[Another pause]

Heiji what happened this months?

[kendo-taisho.livejournal.com]

[silence] [he's closing his eyes and thinking, having already pieced together what probably happened, but...]

What do you mean?

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

You know what I mean. You was acting weird.

[kendo-taisho.livejournal.com]

...yeah. I know.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

Then...? You know what happened? [barely audible] I..we were worried for you, monkey.

Also? AAWWWWWWWWWWWWW

[kendo-taisho.livejournal.com]

[his voice choked a little bit and he had to inhale sharply before trying to speak again] I-I know...but....I don't actually remember.

^____^ inorite? <3

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

....

..... anything?

[kendo-taisho.livejournal.com]

Bits and pieces. [sounds a bit tired. he's gone over this before] The week leading up to the heist? Nothing. This last month? A lot of blank spots, some fuzzy memories. Before that? Just fuzziness here and there.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

I see, that's strange.....do you rember about the time I went to your house?

[kendo-taisho.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Pretty clearly. Well, a little fuzzy in places, but that could just be normal forgetfulness.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

Ah so you do...good. Are you at home now?

[kendo-taisho.livejournal.com]

Yeah. [a bit confused here]

Why? Plannin' on comin' over again?

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

......

[kendo-taisho.livejournal.com]

...oh. [silence] [was trying to avoid everyone in Tokyo, but not that he'll admit that]

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

[The embarrassment in that silence, can you feel it]

S'ok.....

[kendo-taisho.livejournal.com]

[it's choking me. :/]

S-sorry...

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

[I heard a raven outside...]

Don't apologize. I understand if you don't want to see me.

[kendo-taisho.livejournal.com]

[now I feel guilty]

oh, no, that's not-

[takes a deep breath]

Ya can come over if ya want. It don't matter. [tries to sound normal]

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

[8|]

[He can read between lines..] No, really, it's ok. I understand if you need time. I just wanted to know if you was alright.

[kendo-taisho.livejournal.com]

I'm just...

[sigh] Look, I know what I was doing. I don't remember, but part of it I know. Kuroba told me. And...I just...I just didn't think I was ready to see anyone yet.

Not to mention this whole thing with Kudo. [his voice broke again and he grit his teeth] I'm sorry.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

I told you, you don't have to apologize to me. MAybe another time, when you're more relaxed.

I know that all that concerns Kudo is complicated. It was the only way...

Like I told Styx, he's not chibi, but it's the only 'sigh' icon I have. >>

[kendo-taisho.livejournal.com]

It's all right if ya want to come over, really. Kuroba already stated his intentions to kidnap me, so I guess it doesn't really matter if I'm relaxed or not.
