He's doing it to keep you sane, no doubt. [brow furrows]

Oi. You need to get looked at.

[voice // filtered]

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

H-he's doing it... because he has a bleeding heart.

And... I don't want... or need to be looked at. This'll pass.

[voice // filtered]

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

That bleeding heart of his is making sure you're not completely alone.

[a grunt] Before or after you die?

[voice // filtered]

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

I'm not... gonna die.

[voice // filtered]

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

Fine - whatever you say.

... What's your name, anyway?

[voice // filtered]

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

Isamu.

...Ha... I t-told Naoki I didn't wanna... use this thing. Guess I got bored.

[voice // filtered]

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

Get used to it. There's not much shit here to do.

All you can do is pretend to be busy.

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

...S'at what you do?

[voice // filtered]

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

That or get drafted on occasion, if fighting's your style.

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

H-haha... Not me.

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

[watching you again, gauging]

Then what do you do?

[voice // filtered]

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

I am...

[Isamu just starts giggling weakly.]

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

Oi oi, don't go batshit on me now.

[voice // filtered]

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

Heh... Heheh... Sorry.

I... I'm nothing right now. Nothing.

[voice // filtered]

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

[he doesn't really know what you're talking about]

Nothing...?

You're still alive, kid. That counts for something.

[voice // filtered]

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

...I suppose.

But I was something, there... for a while...

[voice // filtered]

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

The place where you and Naoki are from?

[voice // filtered]

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

Yes...

[voice // filtered]

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

I thought shit got destroyed.

[voice // filtered]

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

You mean... the Conception...?

[voice // filtered]

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

[a shrug]

If that's what it's called. I don't know how it all works.

Naoki just mentioned his world pretty much went to hell.

[voice // filtered]

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

It became... a vortex world.

Demons took it over.

[voice // filtered]

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

So it literally went to hell.

Doesn't sound like it'd make for a good time.

[voice // filtered]

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

We were... supposed to recreate it.

I was. The way... the way I wanted.

[voice // filtered]

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

[exhales some smoke - thinking, thinking.]

And Naoki?
