[Dear Jigoku, guess what you get today.

A shrill, piercing, loud enough to wake the dead in twenty different levels of Hell scream as Mika practically leaps out of her skin.]

GET THEM OFF ME!

[The screaming will continue until the flea situation improves. Mika does not want the flea bath or the alternative.

Shaving.

Please do her a favor and put her out of her misery.]




((ooc: come on, you knew you all were overdue for a Mika freakout.))

Are you really sure you want to ask? Think about it. You might not get the answer you want to hear, and you can't change what's already happened back home.

[stormhelm.livejournal.com]

It's a yes or no question. And if you're so knowledgeable about all this...

[She waits, crossing her arms over her chest.]

[stormhelm.livejournal.com]

... is he dead?

[He says the 'he' as though talking of the scum of the earth, of course, referring to Sephiroth. The silent rage and worry rolling off him is intense.]

[notlikethemovie.livejournal.com]

[Oh, there were so many different ways to put this, but he did say yes or no.]

Yes. [But she's not saying how long it'll take for that to happen.]

OH YOU SLY MINX. <3

[His whole figure relaxes and sags back against the chair, like his whole universe was holding it's breath waiting for that answer.]

... thank God.

SHE ONLY DOES IT BECAUSE SHE CARES. sort of.

[Now she feels like an ass. She'll pray for forgiveness when he's not looking, and hope he doesn't remember this conversation at all when he gets dumped back on Gaia. Lord have mercy, she felt like a horrible person that ran over puppies with a steamroller.]

at least we avoided an 'omg brb angsting FOREVER' moment? :)

[It takes him a little while to realise he's still sitting there feeling relieved and the feed is still on.]

...I didn't get your name, before.

Yes. Which....makes her own self-condemnation a little worth it

[notlikethemovie.livejournal.com]

Mika Whitepaws.

Now all we have to do is hope a post-Nibelheim Sephiroth doesn't apply here :D

[stormhelm.livejournal.com]

Oh... You're the Mika that Medusa told me about.

[He gives her a small smile, somewhat weak and apologetic, but a smile nonetheless.] Sorry for.... you know.

Mika would cry forever.

[notlikethemovie.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's me. Deuce is my roommate.

It's fine.

[He thinks he can tell something might be a little off with how she's acting now, but brushed the feeling off quickly - he's terrible at reading people, so he's probably wrong.]

I've got to get going to the hardware store, but I'll see you around the apartments sometime.
Or if you can't stand the flees anymore, you could come along, see if you can find anything there that might be useful.

[notlikethemovie.livejournal.com]

I'm going to be heading out with Bakura soon--to the hardware store, actually. He wanted to pick up a few things and I needed to get out of the house anyway. Maybe I'll see you around, kid.
