Homeless and... looking?

[dyingsun]

Why would you want to apply for me anywhere when you could have someone who isn't dying?

Yes, I would like to be able to spend more time with him... But you don't make any sense to me.

[hammerspacehair]

It sounds like they just like you. Dying or not.

[dyingsun]

I'm flattered, but I don't want her to waste her time.

[hammerspacehair]

That's... not really your decision. If someone likes someone else, they're not just going to walk away because of something such as that. Does that not make sense?

[dyingsun]

I guess that's right. I met someone who thought like that once.

[hammerspacehair]

Perhaps you should take their advice, kind sir...

May I ask, what it is that ails you?

[dyingsun]

I have a genetic disease for which there is no known cure. There's nothing I can do about it except wait to die and pass my time the best I can.

[hammerspacehair]

...oh. I see... forgive my asking!

[dyingsun]

No, it's all right. It's pretty much all people ever talk about with me.

[hammerspacehair]

Then let us speak of something else! That must be terribly sorrowful.

[dyingsun]

Alright. What would you like to talk about?

[messianic]

[....oh there--there's a face he wasn't expecting to see again.

He's...happy though. Very happy.

...]

Akinari--it's good to see you.

[Again.]

[dyingsun]

Same to you. You know, my mun's been telling me all kinds of things I never knew about you.

[messianic]

[There's a bit of amusement in his expression at that.]

Really? I wonder if I should be worried.

[dyingsun]

They're all good things. You don't have to worry.

[messianic]

Well that's a relief.

[He shakes his head, curious as he is; he's always got that natural tendency to ask about others first.]

But how have you been?

[dyingsun]

I haven't been with my mun very long, so not much has happened since you last saw me.

[fools_journey]

It might be a little extra time to work on your book. It would be nice to see it fully illustrated.

[ This Minato might have started doing so himself after you died, but... that's certainly not the same as putting a book together yourself. ]

[dyingsun]

You think so? I haven't worked much on my art.

[fools_journey]

Mm. [ He nods with a small encouraging smile. ] Then maybe now is a good time to start.

[dyingsun]

I think I will.

What have you been up to?

[fools_journey]

[ He shrugs. ]

Not very much. [ Talking about his mun working on his app doesn't seem worth telling others about, after all. ] What of you?

[dyingsun]

I've been reserved to a new place... I don't know how well that's going to go, but I'll give it a try.

[fools_journey]

I hope it works out well for you. I think I will be going to the same place, so at least we will each have a friend there.

[dyingsun]

Maybe you can introduce me to your other friends.

[fools_journey]

I'd be glad to, and I'm sure they'd be glad to meet you, as well.
