His first day in game.

[beloved_one]

I agree that it would be better if Nisei were here currently. It would make dealing with the situation easier. [Nisei come to him.] So in this case he would be preferable.

Ritsuka would be upset about Soubi's betrayal but he will be punished.

[Oh, did someone say his name - why yes, it would seem so. Well, you've got his attention.]

What kind of situation are we talking about?

[beloved_one]

Soubi has shown how much of a traitor he is, so I need a fighter.

[benotloved]

[Nisei scowls, though it doesn't look so very different from a pout.]

No surprise there. [There isn't any doubt that he's never thought highly of Soubi. This is just another thing to add to the pile really.]

So you're gonna punish him? [Oh boy does he want to be a part of that.]

[beloved_one]

Once I have an opportunity, yes. Which is why I need you Nisei.

[in_loveless_memory]

I can't believe he let someone else... just carve into him like that... that...

[His ears drooped, not because he wanted Soubi to be owned by him, but because in the face of neither his brother or himself, Soubi would just seek out anyone to hurt him. No... that wasn't it. Soubi didn't actually care, he only needed someone to control him.

Ritsuka was no more important to Soubi than a stranger on the street. Easily replaced, easily discarded.

Soubi always demanded he not be the one discarded, how quick he was to do it himself.

There was no truth in Soubi, not a single amount, so long as he had someone to claim him, anyone would do, and as Ritsuka never had, never would, he supposed it made sense that Soubi would seek out someone who didn't even care.]

[beloved_one]

This is why no one else matters. Those like Soubi are incapable of understanding us.

And since he doesn't understand us, he fears me and called them to kill me. You can't trust Soubi.

[in_loveless_memory]

[No, it's not that "no one else matters," it's that to Soubi, he never mattered in the first place.

Soubi had been ordered to love him, and that's all it would ever be, nothing genuine would or could ever come from it.]

He... he tried to kill you? [What? Seimei was... how could he... how could he... to Seimei?]

[beloved_one]

He called a group of people so that they would. [Well he meant to call one but that's turned into a small battalion all going against him.]

[zero_fighter]

[Going to tackle into him with a hug, OKAY?! Well too bad if not because he did it already.]

[in_loveless_memory]

[He's okay with it, especially because it's Natsuo and he trusts the boy deeply.]

[zero_fighter]

[yaaaay hugs~! But really he doesn't know what to say this time.]

....

[OH LOOK HIS FAVE EAR! He's going to nibble it.]

[markedbeloved]

[Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat are you talking about?! His mun is so upset and he's so lost.]

[beloved_one]

[Have an icy cold stare.] Soubi.

[markedbeloved]

[Now that his mun KNOWS wtf is happening she is going to poke him to take off his shirt to show that he's not the other him. See? No bite marks or anything else. PLEASE STOP LOOKING AT HIM LIKE THAT!]

[beloved_one]

[Well that does make it a little better. He's still not happy.]

So you haven't betrayed me yet.

[zero_fighter]

I'm sure you are completely without sin on this one too.

[beloved_one]

[Actually this time he is.] I had been there less than two hours.

[zero_fighter]

[LIES AND SLANDER HE SAYS! Even if mun can see it's true NATSUO DON'T GIVE A FUCK.]

Wow, that's a record for even you.

[beloved_one]

Apparently Soubi isn't the only fighter who has forgotten their place.

[no_no_badtouch]

[Do you see this face Seimei? This petulant and perpetually depressed face. He's still upset about certain chapters in the manga.]

It'd be fine if you wanted that person anyway. You'd all just abandon him again in the end.

[beloved_one]

I haven't abandoned you Ritsuka, I still have things I have to finish before I can come back. You've seen they want to kill me, if I were to come back then you would be in danger.

[no_no_badtouch]

If you stopped doing bad things they'd probably stop wanting to kill you.

[Or, you know, never did bad things in the first place. Really, he doesn't understand why you did all those bad things.]

[beloved_one]

This time Soubi started before I had even arrived. Though it seems like you want the succeed Ritsuka, do you hate me now too?

[zero_fighter]

[POUNCING another Rituska! YAY! At lest this one isn't falling for it.]

[no_no_badtouch]

OOF!

[Ritsuka is now on the ground with a Natsuo on top of him.]

Hi Natsuo.
