GRAVEYARD

[On the instant of your death, you're suddenly outside of your body - probably staring down at the remains it's become.

Yet, you're not alone. For all of you (except Szayel), a young man appears from behind you, his face set into a firm, yet sad, scowl. His shaggy strawberry blonde hair is pretty eye-catching, along with the black and white Shihakusho he wears and the large sword on his back, even as he gently tries to lead you back into the lobby and away from what was once your body. You can still clearly hear and see the living, if you want to try - but they can't see or hear you.

'Welcome to the world of the dead in this Resort,' he says, quietly. 'Looks like you're stuck here with the rest of us.'

He hands you a tablet, just like the one you had before. "You'll need this if you want to keep talking to them,' he explains, looking sad.

It looks like you've passed on, and yet...You still feel like you have a role to play in all of this.]
diesifkilled: previous knowledge about something before i comment on it. (you can't just expect me to have)

...I've been in his place. I know how painful it is.

But that doesn't give him an excuse.

I'm not giving him one. I want him to live... more than anything.

But hurting him like this won't change his mind. It's just hurting him more. Please.... please find a different way to try to convince him.
diesifkilled: me i say things that make sense (some say love is a river)

[personal profile] diesifkilled 2018-12-29 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Like what? He can't hear us!
messianic: (For now I die)

[personal profile] messianic 2018-12-29 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Anything. Please. Please... just stop hurting him.

He's... he's already suffering. I know it's hard. I feel helpless too like this. But I can't...

[He can't just stand by and watch Akira take these hits when he knows it won't ever change Akira's mind.]

... Isn't this just an attempt to make ourselves better, and not helping him?

[And that, finally, makes Shirou deflate and just. Collapse to the ground.]

...Yeah. Yeah, you're right.

[He's just so tired of this.]

Sorry.
messianic: (Yet I have heard they both bear darts)

[Minato doesn't really hesitate to crouch next to Shirou, at least--it's not anything he could ever really blame him for, considering Minato's wanted to do the same thing.

Gently, he rests a hand on his shoulder.]


I know.

I know you care about him so, so much... thank you for caring for him like this.
diesifkilled: these past few as long as i can remember (things haven't been going well)

[personal profile] diesifkilled 2018-12-29 09:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[He offers Minato a sad, bitter little smile.]

I just... don't want to see him die. Not again.
messianic: (On every trip you stay ahead of me.)

[personal profile] messianic 2018-12-29 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Me neither... More than anyone, he deserves to live.

[A shaky breath in.]

But he's made his promises, and he's made his choices. He's not the sort of person who... you can clip the wings of, you know? Now... we just have to see what happens.

[And try to support Akira as best they can, as people who care about him so, so much.]
diesifkilled: is like throwing good money into sinkhole (to me putting your wallet in quicksand)

[personal profile] diesifkilled 2018-12-29 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
...Yeah. I know.

[That's part of why he admires Akira so much, isn't it? That conviction.]

But I can't promise that I won't punch him again if he dies.
messianic: (Gone far away into the silent land;)

[personal profile] messianic 2018-12-29 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
... Maybe be a little gentler next time. He's... probably pretty bruised as it is.

[It's hard to talk about Akira dying so flippantly, but it's also the only way to not fall into a terrifying panic.]

And then maybe hug him after.
diesifkilled: oh i wasn't listening i was just acknowledging the fact you were telling me something, whatever it was. (you're telling me!)

[personal profile] diesifkilled 2018-12-29 09:42 pm (UTC)(link)
All right, that's doable. But hopefully he'll make it.
messianic: (Is touched; stirs; rises)

[personal profile] messianic 2018-12-29 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[And shakily:]

Y...yeah. Let's...hope.
