That is why you have to rinse and repeat and wring them out. Don't tell me you do a basic wash and done. Niisan really... We are in a social place, not out in the wilderness.
[There's a moment of quiet disbelief before Rin explodes. Did Yukio just -- Ugh. UUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH. HE MAY NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE PRANKS, BUT HE WILL SURE AS HELL CLEAR HIS NAME. Rin is so mad he even manages to one-up his vocabulary!]
Screw you, jerk! How incompetent do you think I am?!!
[AAAAAAAAAARRGH AAAAAAAAAARGH AAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH -- he -- he -- he has to do something. Like baking! Or taking a walk!! Rin hangs up the phone. If Yukio wants to find him, he'll be in the courtyard.]
[It wasn't long before Yukio finally tracked Rin down to the courtyard and judging by both of their foul moods it would probably be a little rocky to start the conversation.]
Do you remember how we used to always run away to the old park when we had fights?
[Fuck off, bro. ...Is what he wants to say but Rin just watches Yukio as he approaches. Yeah, he remembers. He grunts in response.
Rin is sprawled upon the grass. If he could find a flower bed, he would have tried to hide among the flora, but there was nothing but the cherry blossoms.]
[It's okay bro- there are a lot of things that Yukio needs and wants to say to Rin but there is just never the right time to say them nor are they the right things to say.
Choosing to sit next to Rin and looking up at the sky for a brief moment, Yukio sighed and allowed for his shoulders to slump.]
Is this going to be your new hide out when we fight?
[Well... It's good to see that sarcasm is a thing that wasn't lost between the brothers, but right now Yukio is a bit more concerned with how Rin is doing.]
Not really but perhaps with a swing or something this place could pass as a kiddie park. At lest it would be a small bit of home here.
[... Is there a breeze? Rin pretends there is one. He imagines he is back where he last remembered being home - or close to home. He remembers walking towards an old swing set and falling into it, then --
-- then he's here, in this terrible school. Didn't that happened when he played hide-and-seek? Wasn't he in the halls, bleeding out, in ... in pain ... and then he woke up back in that classroom? Dammit, he thought about it again.]
It wouldn't. [Because that's what happened last time, right? When he played that game? He could of sworn he was back home and maybe Father Fujimoto was waiting for him in the other confessional instead of that - that thing. Rin grits his teeth and wills the memory away. It wouldn't do to think of it now, or ever.]
we were arguin bout dumb shit then he faints then some asshole teacher takes him puts him in the nurses ofice wouldt give him back
[He leaves out the part where he was terrified for his brother's safety. Or how he was sitting outside the nurse's office every day waiting for something to happen. No way, that's personal and sappy. Not like Ron would want to hear all that.
It does bug him that Yukio would rather talk to this guy than to Rin. But he shrugs it off easy as anything. Yukio had friends that cared, friends that wouldn't pick on him. That was already awesome enough.]
hes not saying much to me maybe yukioll tell u more he probbly hasnt been eatin
[ oh come on man, don't be like that. He didn't mean to get between the two of you. Now you've got him all worried that you're jealous that they're hanging out. ]
truth be told m8 he isnt telling me much either buggering hell he hasnt been eating?
[UHMMM NOOOOOO???? OH NO DONT THINK HE'S JEALOUS... But, on the other hand, Rin feels comfortable enough to talk a little bit more about the situation.]
nah hesweats small stuff too much hes probbly eatin junk food instead of a real meal
ive been tryin but i thnk hes mad at me still mad at me idk 4 wat tho
he seems like the sort who stays mad for a buggering long time reminds me of my boss back home really quiet sort, doesnt open up, keeps grudges i think theyd get along if ever they met
[Crossing his arms Yukio sighed as he stared down at his brother. Yukio knew what was bother Rin- but he just can't share with him everything. Not now at least- not when he has a second chance to prevent everything from happening and to keep his brother as human as possible.]
And physical things are the only things we can deal with while being here niisan. We don't have Father here to give us prep talks or stories to help guide us.
mister spears can be a bit of a hard boss to live with but he knows what hes doing so you cant fault him for acting the way he does who knows? maybe he might show up one day then i can finally show you what i mean
