Crowe had murdered by his target last Friday, who feigned injury. She stabbed him twice, and as he died slowly on the street she said something about her next meal. He didn't want to know what that meant.

When Crowe wakes up, it seems like a horrible nightmare. He doesn't realize it's been a week, or that the incident has ended. He doesn't care. Obviously he's incapable of helping anyone. So many people told him to be careful, and he was killed so quickly.

At least he's right about it being Saturday. He figures he has two days before he has to head into school. So he's not leaving his room, or his bed. If anyone knocks on his door, it won't be answered. If they open it, they will just find him lying in his bed, not turning to answer who see who it is. The soft sound of music can be heard, though - he's holding his iPhone, which is quietly playing.

[It might be awkward, but Kakyoin leans over to put a comforting(??) hand on his shoulder.] Just try not to do it again. I'm serious. I don't handle it very well.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

I-I wasn't trying, but I'll be more careful.

... Neither do I.

[Y... yeah. Touching people is too awkward. He puts his hands on his lap for a moment, then moves to stand up again.] Well. Anyway. I hope you get to feeling better.

[Crowe is generally a touchy-feely sort of person, but holds back since most other people aren't. Crowe gives Kakyoin a weak smile.]

Thanks. I-I'll be alright. I think I-I'm going to get some more sleep.

[Kakyoin wouldn't mind, at this point, but he's just going to not discuss that.]

Are you sure you're fine?

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

[No, he wasn't, but saw little that anyone could do to fix it. So instead he just nods.]

[Kakyoin pauses.] I can stay. I will.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

N-No, you don't have to do that! Really, I'll be alright.

[zeppeli-cursed.livejournal.com]

...Right. All right.

I'll see you at school?

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

[Maybe, maybe not.] Okay.


Thanks, Kakyoin.

[zeppeli-cursed.livejournal.com]

...Yeah. No problem.

[He looks visibly worried, but he leaves.]
