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:]

[Sheik understands the feeling. Sort of.]

Perhaps it might be, but there might be a possibility here. [Granted, there is that problem of inflicting the horrors of Luceti on young children, but there were a couple of families that began here.]

[The same thought runs through Tsuzuki's mind. Experiments and the possibility of him being sent home? He'd rather not put someone young and innocent through that.]

What about you?

[voice]

[ombra_lira]

I have thought about it. [He sounds a little sad, though.] But it would be best if I did not pursue that idea any further than a thought.

It was before I came here, wasn't it? [It's impossible to deny that it t makes him curious. Tsuzuki rests his face in his hand.]

[voice]

[ombra_lira]

There is more to it than that. [Yes, that does mean there was someone before.] I do not wish to speak of it here. [Meaning the journals.]

[voice]

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

In that case, can I come over? [He hesitates.] Or did you mean you don't want to talk about it ever?

[voice]

[ombra_lira]

You may. I do not like using the journals, that is all.

[voice]

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

I understand that. They can be hacked, can't they?

[He talks while he walks.]

[voice]

[ombra_lira]

They are monitored as well.

What? Since when?

[voice]

[ombra_lira]

Since the beginning, I assume.

[voice]

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

That's so sneaky. They must be so bored.

[voice -> action]

[ombra_lira]

[Sheik makes a faint dismissive noise. He's gotten used to it, more or less.] I doubt it is boredom that drives their actions.

[Sheik thinks he sees Tsuzuki coming up the path, so he heads outside to wait on his porch.]
