[i'm so sorry aki




she's not there]

[slashay]

[this was me being a dumbass and not reading through your plurk fully BUT IT'S FINE kashuu would icly look for her anyway,,

But after he checks there and Metallic he will send off a text!]

are you ok?

[Like

not emotionally but physically considering he can't find her.]

[countermeasures]

[there's a read receipt, and then nothing, for a few minutes.

but then - ]

yes... i'm resting

[bitch, where]

[slashay]

[BITCH WHERE!!!!! Unfortunately for me but fortunately for her, Kashuu's not one to pry when it's clear someone doesn't want to be bothered.]

i can leave you alone then
just got worried when i couldnt find you

[countermeasures]

you don't have to
i just need a little time to collect myself

[slashay]

i get it

[THEIR FUCKING NORMIE WAS KILLED HELLOOO. Of all the Metallics why not Malik damn-- no okay he loves all of the Metallics, but he's really puzzling over Chinatsu being targeted in particular.]

if you need anything
let me know ok?

[countermeasures]

i will
thank you


i'll be back at the apartment in a little while

[slashay]

i'll be here if you're ok with talking then
or just
sitting

[Sitting together in metallic commiseration.]

[countermeasures]

thank you

[true to her word, she does return to the metallic apartment that night!



and immediately sits on the couch with a sigh.]

[slashay]

[What a mood! Kashuu'd been vibing in his room, but when he hears her return, he will just shuffle his way out of the room and go to sit next to her on the couch. His arm's in a sling and his leg is splinted now, at least.]

...Hey.

[He doesn't ask if she's okay, because literally who is.]

[countermeasures]

Hello...

[it's a little more difficult to be here than jiuqing thought it would be. she keeps catching herself looking toward the kitchen, half-expecting to see chinatsu there cooking something again - or back toward the girls' room, as if she might wander out of it...

but she won't, will she? she's gone.]

...I want to find out who did this to them.

[slashay]

...Yeah. I do, too.

[It does hurt, doesn't it? When it's so close to home. It hurts, to think about the fact that they'll never hear Chinatsu's voice in the apartment again, or at trial, or anywhere else. No more careful hugs after things go wrong. No more helping hands when he has a project he needs more people on.]

...She helped with the alley clean-up. Helped make some bouquets and tie up the ribbons and all. Even though she was scared of this place, she still tried really hard. Chang Geng - I didn't get to talk to him as much, but he was always real sweet.

[And had parts to him that were easy for a sword to understand. Both of the losses sit heavy.]

[countermeasures]

...she was very strong, wasn't she?

[strength isn't never being afraid of anything - it's about continuing to act, even when you're afraid. it's about not letting your fear paralyze you.]

And Sir Chang was very kind. He was easy to talk to.

[...it hurts to know they won't be able to talk to either one of them again.]

[slashay]

[Death is always such a lonely thing.]

She's strong, yeah. They're both good people. ...I wish-- we'd figured stuff out here faster.

[Before they lost more.]

[countermeasures]

I do, too. I... we have to figure out what happened, tomorrow.

[lol]
