Fuda # 26 | [video] The cake is not a lie.

[idealism]

[The feed begins shakily, because Tsuzuki is trying to use it has a camcorder.]Be careful with him. He's still just a baby.

[Hisoka sounds exasperated, flipping a page in his book. Tsuzuki lifts his journal so he comes into focus: one of Hisoka's wings is clearly missing.] Tsuzuki, all cats land on their feet.


Are you sure? I mean, what if it's -





[Tsuzuki jumps out of his chair, putting his journal down briskly. From the camera's view, it looks like the world is turned upside down.] Poor Cake!

[The kitten is nowhere in sight. A confused mewling comes from beneath the couch. Why did the ground try to swallow him, humans? D:]

[That sounds like a request for more kitten nuzzling.]

It's probably about a million, huh.

Have you ever read to people?

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

[Sob. Fine.]

Why would I ever? [PFFF. Reading is not something to be shared.]

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

[Hisoka will love his little emperor and he will like it. :|]

It probably makes the story feel more alive. [He touches the page reverently, wondering how different it is from the original language.]

I can read to you sometime, if you want.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

[What is love.]

Please don't.

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

[Baby don't hurt me Tsuzuki looks up to him, a mischievous look in his eyes.]

Or you could read to me.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

No.

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

Please? I'll make it up to you.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

You're perfectly capable of reading your own books, Tsuzuki.

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

I'm sure you'd make them sound better.

[A pause.]

Did you ever talk with Draco about his vampire?

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

You shouldn't worry about things that aren't your business.

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

[With a huff, he pulls himself up into the couch.]

Hisoka, it is my business. I don't want Draco to get hurt, either.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

I'm going to take care of it, okay?

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

[Oh hai, cat, how about some extra cuddles? Tsuzuki scratches Cake behind his ear.]

What are you planning to do?

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

I'm planning to take care of it. Stop asking questions.

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

Hisokaaaaa.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

I mean it.

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

Don't you trust me anymore?

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

...That's a stupid question, Tsuzuki.

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

I'm just saying, it would be reckless to let you deal with the vampire alone. We're partners, aren't we?

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

After the week we just had, you'd doubt me now?

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

I'm not doubting you, 'Soka. [His left hand rests on Hisoka's arm.]

Considering the other week, I'm just wondering why you're so determined to do this alone.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

I don't want anyone to get unnecessarily involved. That's all.

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

It's different. We're supposed to do these kinds of things together. You know that.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

Of course we are. It's just not the same thing this time.

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

Why not?
