...I'm sorry too.

[He knows that yelling does not solve problems or makes communication easier but, DAMMIT YUKIO, he was trying not to worry which only made him worry more and maybe you really should avoid thinking of showers as good things. Maybe they're not.]

Look, I don't care about the circus thing. ...'m glad to hear you're awake again.

[-- hold up, was Yukio moving around?] You're outta bed already?

I'm not about to spend a whole day in bed when I've been asleep for almost a month.

[ Are they actually communicating?! Better check the windows because a pack of Spoink might have learned Fly.

But that question makes him a little suspicious. ]

Why?

[THE WORLD IS ENDING. REPEAT, THE WORLD IS ENDING. Wow, bro, when has Rin ever been suspicious? PSSSH.]

'Cause you just woke up? Shouldn't you be weak with hunger?

[ ...okay this gonna sound weird but. ]

Airi gave me an egg the minute I woke up. That should be enough until dinner.

[ They're surprisingly filling... for eggs. ]

Is Alphonse still around?

[that sounds so WEIRD. . .]

You ate her eggs before my cooking? I'm hurt, man.

[Rin tries not to sigh too loudly. Honestly, what kind of question is that?]

'Course he is. We've been waitin' for you this whole time.

It's the first thing I could get to before even reaching the kitchen.

[ And there's a sigh of relief as well as a mental note to text Al later when he's done with the bath. ]

At any rate... now that I'm up, we can finally get moving again. I should probably text Alphonse and tell him I'm--

[ He's headed to the bathroom with Airi following after, holding his Gear for him so he doesn't have to hang up. That pause is from that sudden cackling sound you hear. Yukio can't help but wonder what's gotten into his Noivern. ]

Did... something happen to Kizamime while I was passed out?

[Did something -- uhm. UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUHM.]

...Ki-Kizamime? Uh... yeah! He was a big help while you were out of it! Y'know changing clothes, packin' up food, that sorta stuff. Regular stuff!

[Rin is very obviously trying to hide something and he's not even going to attempt to be stealthy. He's just glad that there is enough distance between himself and Yukio.

Should he run or should he wait...]

Well, I gotta get going. I'll make you your favorite dinner! Text Al! [GOTTA GO FAST]

[ Unfortunately, Yukio's reached the bathroom before Rin can hang up or even attempt to hang up. ]

RIN! WHAT DID YOU DO?!

[ He's staring at the mirror in disbelief. S2g, Rin... as of this time tomorrow, Yukio is going to be an only child because he's going to kill you.

Kill you til you're dead. ]

[FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-]

Uh - what? I can't hear you! You're breaking up!

Who said this was a good idea?! How could you even--

[ He's just taking his shirt off now and staring even more. ]

DID YOU GET EVERYWHERE?!

[OKAY, THAT GETS HIM TO LAUGH INSTEAD OF RUN. Yes, he should really not be in the vicinity, but he would pay to see the look on his brother's face -- just not at the expense of his own face.]

Th-They wanted to be reunited! [INTO ONE GIANT CONSTELLATION.]

It was a moles reunion!!

[ And before he can speak, he's drowned out by that cackling laughter again and a crash. Seems that Kizamime's laughed himself into a drawer. But he doesn't care. This is too good. Coupled with Rin's comment, that Noivern's having the time of his life. ]

Knock it off and get me something to wash this off!

[ The cackling finally dies down and there's a muttered "thanks" from Yukio when Kizamime comes back with a handtowel and a basin. You can probably hear the water going in the background. ]

You are dead when you get back, Rin.

[Rin should feel more danger, but over the phone he can't detect as much bite to his brother's words as he normally ~~should~~ would. He shouldn't be laughing his butt off at a silly prank.

And he should really not laugh when his brother sends death threats like that. For some reason, it only gets him to laugh even more.]

[ And he's just gonna hang up right there because he has some major scrubbing to do. ]
