Fuda #39 [video]

[idealism]

Just how long can someone stay dead here? Draco has been gone for over a week and he still hasn't come home.

[He sighs, running his fingers through his hair. It's worrying. Hisoka won't take it well if Draco doesn't return soon, and he doesn't know how much his sensitive partner can take.]

[Already regretting he put his thoughts in the journal, he changes the subject.]


Anyway. Welcome to town, new people. I'm Tsuzuki. If you need any help finding a place to stay, or just want to find a temple, I'm always around.

[In fact, if anyone is out to find him, they will be able to find him just where he'd sending the video from, the Tsukino Shrine. Later in the day he will take a walk in the woods to clear his head.]

[action] XD

If you insist. [He murmurs, suppressing a smile tickling the corners of his lips.] ...Isaac. My name is Isaac. [He stumbles quite suddenly - by accident, actually, over a partially-hidden tree root - but it works in his favour. He braces his hand against the scaly trunk of a tree as if struck by a wave of dizziness and needing a moment to recover]

[action] XD

[idealism]

[He responds immediately, taking a hold of Isaac's elbow to steady him. There simply is no reason for him to react differently, when Isaac is so clearly in need.]

Isaac? Are you okay?

[action]

[relictusdeus]

[Instinctively bristling at the touch, he then makes a considerable effort to restrain his more fierce reactions as to gently pull himself free.] I'm alright... [He answers stiffly and forges onwards, hunching his shoulders against the cold.] You are too kind, inviting a stranger into your home. I am most grateful.

[action]

[idealism]

[He's not the first one that dislikes to be touch, but it beggars the imagination. Tsuzuki's eyebrow quirk just the tiniest bit, even though his voice still sounds warm and inviting.]

It's no problem. I couldn't leave you out here in the cold.

[action] dat butterfly... /points to icon

[relictusdeus]

[He nods wearily in response, his breath clouding in quick puffs as he forges onwards, shivering erratically beneath the cloak-like jacket.] ...Are we nearly there? [If it's much longer, he will verge on regretting this prank of his.]

[action] he is a magnet for animals and birds and butterflies for some weird reason. :P

[idealism]

[He points to a small house down their path, hidden somewhat by the trees. It looks shielded and inviting. Tsuzuki urges him on, so they'll get inside quickly.] Over there.

[action] Isaac, then, is a magnet for dead animals. /things inexplicably drop all around him

[relictusdeus]

[His gaze follows Tsuzuki's pointing finger. Ah, good.]

I have no desire to inconvenience you any more than I have already, Tsuzuki. I shall be sure not overstay my welcome.

[action] sounds like a match made in hell. :P

[idealism]

[His pace quickens a bit. He's yearning to be warm again, so he hurries to the door and ushers Isaac inside.]

Don't worry. You're not an inconvenience at all.

[relictusdeus]

[The answer he receives has an irrepressible little smile crawling across his thin lips - and it lingers as he steps inside into blessed warmth, his eyes roaming about and absorbing details. Wherever he could see, he could later teleport in the future; a useful little trick.

He doesn't quite hand back the jacket around his shoulders yet, his tattooed skin studded with goosebumps.]

[idealism]

[Tsuzuki trusts too easily. He sees no danger in the way Isaac behaves. The only thing he notices is the way he's not warming up fast enough.]

[He gestures for the kitchen, going ahead to put on a kettle.]

C'mon. We have some good tea left.

Oh Tsuzuki, you dork.

[relictusdeus]

'twould be wonderful.

[Truthfully he didn't much care for tea, but he wanted to come off as agreeable and would give it a bit of time before he voiced a need to rest, and would then go about his work. He looks to the kettle expectantly.]

...And what would this 'good tea' be?
