Fuda #41 [action/video]

[It had been a pretty sucky week. Tsuzuki doesn't want to show Hisoka the letters Yuri left for them when she was sent home. He suspects his partner is taking her disappearance hard enough as it is. But what is he supposed to do?]

[The answer is to pretend there's no problem. He taps his pen on the paper as he thinks, turning to the journal eventually.]

Out of curiosity, if you could only choose one word to describe your best friend, what would it be?

They're not that bad, 'Soka. They can be really helpful!

No they can't.

They can protect you. Help you heal. They will always look out for your best interest.

[This only makes him think of home. He inches closer to his side, looking at Hisoka from the crook of his eye]

So why did you read about shikigami?

[Now Hisoka's a little off-kilter because he's still talking about the butterflies.]

I want to know about everything from home. But that doesn't have anything to do with the parasites you're trying to bring into this house.

Me too. It's good to be reminded of things from home.

[That's why it's good to have a partner around, too. It keeps him from forgetting.]

Wait. Are we talking about regular butterflies or....? Because there are some shikigami that work that way, too.

There's nothing regular about those things.

Did the book say anything else about other bugs?

Why don't you believe me about a very simple biological fact?

I was just wondering. I mean, it's a little mean to single out butterflies like that.

There's nothing mean about it. They want us dead.

.....

Hisoka, where did you read this?

It's common sense. Why do you think I'm lying to you?

I don't think you're lying. It's just that I've never heard this before.

What about fireflies? Fireflies are still good, right?

Why? Do you want to bring those home too?

I like those. When I was little they made the nights... well. I just like them.

I suppose. [WHAT IS ALL THIS TALK OF THE OUTDOORS?]

[He cant help it, he grew up with them lighting up the night sky like silent fireworks.]

Have you ever watched them at night? It's really beautiful.

I try not to pay attention.

We can try it from our bedroom sometime. We can even light some candles, so it won't be so dark inside.

If you insist on being enchanted by bugs.

I think I'd enjoy if it you stayed up with me.

... Fine. We can do that some night. When it gets warmer.

Deal.

[They still have some months to go, but Tsuzuki is relieved to have something to look forward to. He strokes Hisoka's shoulder, wondering what caused him to suddenly be agreeable.]

Maybe we'll get lucky this year. The summer might not be so bad for you.

I doubt it'll be any better than the last two.

[He touches his wing, quietly offering some support.]

We can hope, right? And if not, we'll find some way to make ice cubes for you.
