Thanatos and Orpheus // Private Thread for the Win

[itsnotaleash]

[When the pageant was over, Thanatos didn't bother to stick around any longer than he had to. Ameno-Sagiri's words still boomed in the back of his conscious as if the other Shadow was still right there. To Thanatos, anything that was once familiar made no sense. Just when he finally began to accept he was Death... More had to happen that would cause him to feel uncomfortable about his existence. Was his heart really nothing more than just a lie? He had been so happy at the pageant. Yet, it seems happiness was only temporary when you were Death incarnate. So here Thanatos was, all alone, with a serving of unagi don in his hands to try and settle his stomach. Unfortunately, the sweet taste of eel wasn't making him feel any better. A glance outside then made him feel even worse. The fog was still in sight.]

... Lies hurt just as much as the truth? Yeah, right.

... Huh?

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

I voted for you. In the pageant.

[clockstopped]

That's because you play favorites.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

N... No!

[clockstopped]

No?

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

Yeah! I was very fair in my voting!

[clockstopped]

...

[Heh.]

You're just happy you got your wish.

[Oh sir, you and your silly Meido fetish.]

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

You were only the best one there was! I don't know why you didn't win.

[clockstopped]

Because I didn't. [Sits on the edge of the closest bed, legs crossing and an elbow on his knees to prop his head in his hand. And seems to be clueless of the fact this just gives Thanatos a better view. Too busy staring at the wall to notice.] It's fine, I guess... I mean. It's only a week, right? It's just degrading...

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

You should have. [Sorry, what was the rest of what you were saying? Cleavage... ] ...

[clockstopped]

Does it matter? I still lost. ... And Mitsuru changed genders anyway. Perhaps it was inevitable...

[Though Mitsuru as a man was pretty sexyfine. ... See icon. Why did I just think that? sdkljzxclja]

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

Well, I sure don't mind it that much.

[Since, you know, CLEAVAGE.]

[clockstopped]

[Eyeroll and a scoff.] Of course you don't mind.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

Is that so wrong? It will only last for a week.

[clockstopped]

That's not the point.

[Turns to stare at to lecture at then... AHEM.] My eyes are up here.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

[OH RIGHT. EYES.] Ahaha... Then what is the point?

[clockstopped]

... Forget it. [Sighs and leans back to lie on the bed, legs still hanging off the side. ...... Huh.]

... It's quiet today.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

... Quiet?

[clockstopped]

[Not really listening. Covering his ears and staring at the ceiling, eyes clouding over momentarily. Fucker's still there, as always, but there's no more of that white noise or the roars with it.]

... Maybe it threw him off. [Rolls over to stare at, blinking away the glazed sheen so the two bright silver eyes were staring at him in curiosity.] Feeling any better?

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

That's really good, then. You deserve a rest from Erebus.

[Ameno-Sagiri's words and Erebus' roar travel through his mind for a moment, but he smiles anyway... Even if his answer sounds so very unsure.] Yeah.

[clockstopped]

I guess. [Even though later he's going to storm out and go verbally rip Ameno a new one. Way to put yourself back on the radar genius.]

[And that earns you a slight frown. Hn, you don't tell me the truth either. Jerk. >:\ But goes right back to neutral a half-second later.] ...All right.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

... There's just not much more I could say about the subject.

[clockstopped]

I said it's all right.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

[Oh look, it's Thanatos' turn to bang his fist against a hard object. This time it's the wall next to him. Ow.] It's not all right.

[clockstopped]

[Jumps at the loud noise, immediately propping himself back up on his hands to look at you incredulously. Explain plzkthx?]
