on missing people from home @ microcosm

[defendingly]

I know you're on hiatus, Mundane.

[A slight pause. She seems to think she's alone.]

It was cruel of that place to send Ichigo home. Inoue-san misses him. It is not easy.. for her. [Yes, let's go with that one. These feelings are hard to keep from expressing, however.]

It is difficult to find a way out on my own.

[And that is about as specific as she's going to get.]

[synchwell]

Outnumbered or not, things aren't going to wait for you while you think it out logically.

[defendingly]

I am doing all I can at the present moment.

[synchwell]

Is it enough?

[defendingly]

It will not be enough until we all go home.

[synchwell]

Che.

[He shrugs and looks away.]

You're too soft spoken now. To me.

[defendingly]

What makes you believe you know anything?

[synchwell]

I know when someone bears their fangs.

[defendingly]

You don't understand the situation.

[synchwell]

Can't be much different than that place.

[defendingly]

It's not hugely different. But it's not the same, either.

[synchwell]

Better or worse?

[defendingly]

Better in some ways, worse in others.

[synchwell]

Just the same then, always is with these places.

[defendingly]

It could be worse. Inoue-san .. if I went home, she would be there all alone.

[synchwell]

Take that's a friend of yours. Someone you have to watch out for huh?

[defendingly]

Yes. Someone I have to protect.

[synchwell]

[Does she know that's a low blow to him?]

Protect...yea, that.

[defendingly]

[Unlikely.]

I'd be worried .. what she may do if I wasn't with her.

[synchwell]

I wouldn't what if about it. You're there now, that's enough.

[defendingly]

.. That's a very nice thing to say, Heine.

[synchwell]

Yea yea, just don't get use to hearing it from me.

[defendingly]

Of course.

[synchwell]

Right...

[Oh great, awkward silence again.]

[defendingly]

[she is the queen of the awkward silence]

Have you been in this place long?

[synchwell]

[He just doesn't talk much.]

Awhile, no telling how long really. Too long is all I can say.
