[He will absolutely not!

Very funny that he managed to make sweet Luke feel bad in his attempts at trying to not make Luke feel bad, though. He just shakes his head.]


I can understand it. It's an unpleasant thing to consider, to say the least.

[You know what else is an unpleasant thing to consider?? This memory that gently whops Luke upside the head. the mod accounts are in the filters im not friending riku darksubverted rikuson just to add him to my filters dammit]

[Pardon me, but what the FUCK? again.

The memory jolts him a little more than his own. There is a terribly familiar grip around his heart he can't place. A little seed of madness that he remembers too well.

The air rolls with a thick cloud of fog as he gasps when it ends. He stumbles, but thankfully doesn't go down.]

[YOU ASKED FOR THE DEMON SWORD AND YOU GOT THE DEMON SWORD DAMN.

Anyway, Sakyou's moving forward reflexively a moment or two after the memory fades, even though that's still too slow to have actually caught this poor lad if he did fall. His hands hover awkwardly between them, remaining there for a few seconds as he gathers his words.]


--I... [...] You shouldn't have had to see that - I'm sorry.

It... was you. That was you, wasn't it? But.. like it was me.

[He doesn't reach out to grab Sakyou for the same reason Sakyou doesn't want to reach out and grab him, but he doesn't pull away.]

Are... you okay?

[that was a lot to go through, my guy, lol???]

[It's fine he's competing for the repression crown along with 90% of this game so he can pull himself together very quickly.]

...It was, yes. [A little sigh.] I'm alright. This isn't the first time I've had to see that again.

[Fortunately, because the first time he did, he was confused as hell.]

[Being confused about seeing "memories"? HAHA!]

It sounds like... [He shakes his head, uncertain.] Like a story from a book.

[He has no room to talk about this, but he doesn't know that yet. Very funny.]

Does it... still...?

[HE'S

THINKING ABOUT HIS OWN "SWORD" NOW AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA]

[VERY FUNNY. HATE THIS FOR HIM.]

...I suppose it does, doesn't it?

[A very unfortunate storybook scenario... He sighs a little, but the question has him glancing back toward the sword at his hip.]

--Does it still speak? Yes. [COMFORTING.] But that seems to be the extent of what it's capable of.

[Stop, it has an EYE on it. This is horrendous.]

It...

[He goes quiet, his eyes falling to Sakyou's sword, too. Well, that's fucking discontenting. HE'S HALF A DISNEY, HELLO. This is some nefarious villain shit.]

If it really does speak, you shouldn't give in to what it says.

[Sorry, he's also a protag.]
modissty: (so fragile and fleeting)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-02 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[can't believe he's got the eye of sauron happening...

ANYWAY IT'S FINE don't worry about his nefarious villain blade that may or may not have words to say about this exchange. Sakyou offers a little quirk of a smile... sasuga protag-san.]


I won't. It isn't like before - it's just like anything else that speaks. Though it's a bit obnoxious at times, it's still something I can ignore.

[Muramasa in the meantime just there like >:/ waiting for potential power unlock in the distant future.]

[Hilariously, he looks fairly disturbed by this. There is just something... something he inherently dislikes about the idea of what he saw, of what he has realized.

Not about Sakyou. About the sword.

His brows pinch.]


You don't have to rely on that kind of strength.
modissty: (far off)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-03 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
[Sir do you also have an evil sword. Hello. Why is this so common? Why does this keep happening? Hello??

His own brow furrows just a little, but there's some minute confusion in it, too.]


...I hadn't intended to in the first place, to be honest. The sword called to me.

[He found it in a creepy cave and picked it up like a fool because it was crying.]
darksubverted: (Riku (109))

[personal profile] darksubverted 2021-07-03 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
[Maybe not a sword. Hm.]

Called to you? And... you listened?

[He opens his mouth to say something else, but then Sakyou gets another memory because I think it's fucking funny.

When he comes out of it, this time, though, he's holding his head and groaning.]
modissty: (when my time comes around)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-03 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
[He's about to be like YEAH LOOK IT WAS CRYING!!! but instead gets rudely slapped by this memory instead hello. ANNA. FUCK OFF

Uh, this is probably not the best thing, though. After snapping out of the memory, Sakyou's first instinct is to look toward Luke - but since he's kinda looking like he's having Possession Head Pains over there, he actually does reach out this time, lightly setting a hand against his shoulder.]


Luke—? Are you alright?

[personal profile] darksubverted 2021-07-03 02:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[Look, sometimes a SquareDisney villain possesses you. Same hat!! Possession!

After a moment of intense struggle to not head explode, he finally manages to raise his head. Still squinting, though.]


I'm... okay... I just don't... understand.
modissty: (and though you've got the tears)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-04 12:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[POSSESSION!!! SHAKING HANDS.

Wow please don't have your head explode like that girl from Cloverfield though he's not equipped to deal with that kind of gore. He will... helpfully... stand in whatever direction the sun is shining strongest from, like blocking that light out will help sweet Luke. God.]


...If it pains you to think of it, perhaps you shouldn't for now.
darksubverted: (Riku (181))

[personal profile] darksubverted 2021-07-04 12:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yah his head is going to explode like the girl from Cloverfield, and Sakyou is going to have to watch it happen.]

I'm...

[He was going to say OKAY, but maybe he isn't okay completely right yet. Grimacing, he squeezes his eyes shut, and then tries to relax when they open again.]

I'm okay... I just don't... get... Are they dreams?
modissty: (to the future)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-04 12:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[i wouldn't put it past you demon

ALSO GOD. THIS POOR LAD. Sakyou's not a tactile person, but he reaches out to carefully and lightly set a hand against Luke's back, frowning.]


Please don't say you're okay when you aren't. [Binch.] ...I would advise against puzzling over it for too long for now, as well.

[(crow voice) what if they fucking explode]

[He doesn't jerk away at all, or even flinch, when Sakyou rests a hand on him. He's a good, soft boy! His breath puffs out on the air when he exhales.]

I just...

[Ugh. Annoying. Frustrating! But it's true, the more he tries to puzzle it out, the more his head hurts. So he straightens up.]

You're right.
modissty: (at the dining table)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-07-04 02:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[A GOOD SOFT LAD... suplexes him like an empty soda can

This is rough to watch, though. There's another second or two before Sakyou quietly lets his hand slip away, eying Luke with the same measure of concern. After a second, he offers a brief quirk of a smile, as though in attempt at reassuring.]


Something to worry about later, perhaps. Does your head hurt? Do you need to sit...?
