18... hello darkness my friend

[singsingbluesilver]

[ voice | Japanese ]

I had a lot of fun, Tatsuha! Thanks for all your help! I'm sorry I dropped that last bag on your foot though, but the bat thingies were being really mean about my hair. OH! And are we on for moving a few things from that one apartment? I think we can really use a different table and it's too much just for me to carry all by myself. Anyone else want to help out? I promise I won't drop anything else on people's feet!

Umm, scientist guys? I would like to have a chalkboard and some chalk and maybe a guitar? That way I'm not always wasting paper that should be used for more important things.

Tohma! I finished the song! Let's find a piano and play out the harmony!

[ Tohma takes off his bowler hat and puts it on Ryuichi's head instead, tilting it 'just so.' ]

You work for what you eat. I always knew you had it in you to be a hard worker, but I'm amazed at just how hard you really do work. If anyone should be saying they don't deserve to eat more, it's me. I've been more or less of a mooch lately because the only thing I can do here is organize a few bands.

And I'm always willing to share my portion of food with you, Ryuichi.

[singsingbluesilver]

[ He smiles a bit more at that, and tilts the hat in the other direction, burrowing closer to his bandmate. And yes, he feels too thin under all the bulk of his clothing - or lack thereof. ]

Tohma needs to stay healthy and not get really sick.

I'll be fine.

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

I'm not sick and I eat plenty. You're the one that needs to be worried about.

[He settles for loosely hugging Ryuichi around the middle.]

If you don't start eating properly, I'll confine you to this room and I'll make you stay in bed all day and do nothing but eat and sleep.

[...]

I'll be watching you more carefully now, so I'll know if you're not eating properly.

[singsingbluesilver]

I'm fine.

[ He makes a face at the sound of the whine in his voice and hides his expression by pressing his face against Tohma's chest. ]

I would have a fit if you did that.

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

[ He absently rubs Ryuichi's back. ]

I know you would. That won't stop me from doing it, though. The only away to avoid such a harsh punishment is to eat.

Maybe we can find something sweet to eat later?

[singsingbluesilver]

I miss home.

[ Playing with the ends of Tohm's sweater, he sounds like he hasn't slept or eaten in a while - the kind of tired whine of someone pushing himself. ]

I want some daifuku and yokan and ice cream.

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

I know you do...

[ He gently sighs and continues rubbing his back, hoping it'll relax him. ]

I'll see what I can do about that. Maybe we can make some homemade daifuku here? I'm not so sure about the yokan or ice cream, but....

[singsingbluesilver]

I'm sorry I'm whining, but I can do that, right? I haven't whined in forever, right?

[ Nuzzles a little and huffs. ]

We need to do that song.

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

I don't mind.

[And he snuggles back just a little.]

I think it would be best if you took a nap first.

[singsingbluesilver]

Only if you lay down with me.

[ And he takes out the cutest look in his arsonal of cute looks and smiled up at Tohma. ]

Please?

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

[He stares at him defiantly, but his seriousness quickly crumbles into a look of defeat.]

Oh, all right. You have to make sure you sleep, though. Otherwise I'll get up and compose something and force you to stay in bed by yourself.

[And he gets up, does his best to make the bed more comfortable, and with a heavy sigh he flops onto the bed on his stomach.]

I should go to the library and get some books to read.

[singsingbluesilver]

[ In return for laying down with him, Ryuichi cuddles and stretches out,tugging blankets over him so he can get warm. ]

I will. Promise.

There might be something good there. I haven't looked.

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

[ Tohma casually throws an arm around Ryuichi's waist. ]

As long as you try.

You haven't gone to the library? I'm surprised, considering those books have plenty of pages that are already written on....

[singsingbluesilver]

Mmkay.

[ He shook his head, rubbing his cheek against Tohma's shoulder. ]

Books aren't like other stuffs.

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

[ He laughs quietly. ]

I suppose not.

And besides, tearing pages out of a book is vandalism.

[ With his other hand, he manages to move his arm so that he can absently comb through Ryuichi's hair with his fingers. ]

[singsingbluesilver]

Mm, I suppose it is.

[ Oh yeah, he is slowly falling asleep here, half in dream land just from sharing heat and covers with Tohma. ]

[blameshimself.livejournal.com]

[ Tohma whispers softly, just in case: ]

Goodnight, Ryuichi. Pleasant dreams.

[singsingbluesilver]

Mm.
