44... sunshine through dark clouds smiles

[singsingbluesilver]

Thanks to everyone that showed up at the bar the other night, I had fun and it was great to meet some new friends and old! I hope there weren't too many people getting sick the next day cuz that would just suck a lot. Anyways, I just want to thanks for the nice presents and well wishes and I hope that everyone enjoyed themselves.

I would like to say happy birthday to those also having one this month. It's a great month to get born in, I admit! Anyways, this goes out to a Mr. Wright and a couple others I don't quite remember their names but I really think that you should all have a good time too. Even if the alcohol here is a bit bitter.

Also, has anyone seen Kumagoro? He's a really bad bunny and stayed out all night last night and hasn't come home yet.

[Souji slips on his outer yukata and then smiles at Ryuichi.]

Lets hurry, he might be cold.

[singsingbluesilver]

Oh! That would be bad cuz then he'll catch a cold!

[bloodshedlament.livejournal.com]

We should hurry then. Poor Kumagoro.

[Souji walks quickly outside, with a worried expression.]

[singsingbluesilver]

[ Runs to catch up, picking up his pipe for protection. ]

Yeah!

[Souji has his sword in case they need it. He makes it down the stairs and into the street now heading out for the direction of the school...even humming a little tune, although he keeps it low.]

[singsingbluesilver]

[ Ryuichi walks along and sings, randomly throwing notes and words together with his pipe resting across his shoulders. ]

How long has Sakuma-san been with Kumagoro-san?

[singsingbluesilver]

Kumagoro has been with me forever and ever.

[bloodshedlament.livejournal.com]

How did you guys meet?

[singsingbluesilver]

I don't remember. [ That was said in a quiet voice, before Ryuichi turned around and walked backwards, looking at Souji. ]

Are you gonna die?

[bloodshedlament.livejournal.com]

[Souji stopped dead in his tracks- looking at Ryuichi with an almost demonic look for a second before he regained himself and smiled slightly.]

Everyone will die eventually Ryuichi-san.

[singsingbluesilver]

But not everyone coughs up blood and has problem breathing.

[ He stops too, the childishness gone and a weary looking thin adult is looking back. ]

[bloodshedlament.livejournal.com]

I am endangering you all...you know that right?

[Souji looks back- not angrily...more like pleading.- but in a very serious fashion.]

[singsingbluesilver]

I figured. The question is do you want to be with people that care for you, or do you want to keep them safe.

[ And he looks back, tired and thin and still standing like he can carry more weight on his shoulders. ]

[bloodshedlament.livejournal.com]

[Souji smiles at him.]

You know the answer-...

[singsingbluesilver]

[ Smiles, lowering his head and turning around. ]

Yeah... I guess I do. So, rescue Kumagoro and get some coffee?

[bloodshedlament.livejournal.com]

[Souji smiles and nods.]

Ryu-san....If it's alright? When we are done with coffee...could you walk me to the hospital?

[singsingbluesilver]

Sure. I'll take you there and make sure you get a nice room and a really nice doctor, okay?

[bloodshedlament.livejournal.com]

Walking me there will be just fine. [Souji smiles and nods, its better he not tell Tohma or Tetsu about this.]

[singsingbluesilver]

I know... Just saying if you want me to, okay?

[bloodshedlament.livejournal.com]

[Souji raises a hand to his face and covers his eyes, smirking into it.]

Tetsu is going to hate me isn't he?

[singsingbluesilver]

I don't know if hate would be the right word.

[ He stretches, his fingers lacing behind his back and his face tilting up. ]

Angry and miserable and hurt would probably fit better.

[bloodshedlament.livejournal.com]

Sakuma-san? Thank you for taking care of him.

[And with this Souji just smiles. Nothing really he can do for Tetsu-kun, as much as he wants to.]

I know I've asked a lot of you Sakuma-san, but could you also do me the favor of taking care of Tetsunosuke? There are many things which I have yet to tell him, and I would hate to hurt him more. I know going to the hospital will be rather mean of me, but you understand why. So...If it's not too much to ask, could you be there for him?

[he paused and smiled towards the ground.]

Who knows...maybe one day the medicine here might just suppress my disease all together, and then I can see you guys again. It would be nice huh?

[singsingbluesilver]

I try, Souji.

[ He glances over at him and then smiles as well. He may not know exactly what he had, but Ryuichi had a pretty good idea that he may not come back from the hospital until after he dies. ]

I'll keep an eye on all of them, promise. Even the worry wart Tou-nyan and Tetsu.

[bloodshedlament.livejournal.com]

[Souji smiles then continues walking.]

Well then, lets find Kumagoro-san. I want to say good bye to him properly.

[Souji has a secret admiration for the adorable kumagoro-san. XP]
