105. FOURTH WALL POST [Action for Saffron City, anywhere in Saffron City! Video's okay too]
[You know what?]
[Heather's not even sure why she TRIES anymore.]

[So done. So done.]
Here we go again.
... Yes, Cooj, I still love you.
Just not right now.

Now that's a face I haven't seen in a while.
[... He's probably not talking about Cujo, though.]
no subject
[... And at first she's not totally sure what she's seeing. Because it doesn't really add up with what he just said. What does he mean, in awhile? SHE JUST SAW HIM A FEW HOURS AGO.]
[.. Or... wait.]
... Crow?
no subject
Glad you still remember it!
[He walks over to her side and pets Cujo on the head-- or, well, one half of it. Kind of gross, but at least he doesn't seem too bothered by it.]
Although... judging by this guy here, I'm gonna take a wild guess it's one of the crazy weekend things, so maybe it hasn't been all that long for you.
[He makes a pause, looking back to her.]
Would explain why you haven't changed one a bit.
no subject
... I, uh...
Yeah.
I saw you this morning.
... When was the last time you saw me?
no subject
Eight years and a half, give or take.
... So you're saying I'm still here, huh?
[He says that like it's something as trivial as weather. Apparently there's a younger version of me running around at the same time? HAPPENS EVERY OTHER DAY, REALLY.]
no subject
[... S-so he's what, almost thirty? DAM CRO U OLD.]
[She actually looks rather taken aback by it. Not quite the cool cucumber (... or angry red pepper, to use a produce-related metaphor for the OTHER way she tends to react to things) she normally is.]
I--... yeah, you're still here...
[But her mind is kind of racing. IF CROW'S FROM THE FUTURE.... THAT MUST MEAN HE GOES HOME AT SOME POINT. ..... :(]
no subject
Crow watches her reaction without saying anything for a moment before finally letting out a soft chuckle.]
Don't look so surprised; what, you didn't think I'd made it to this age?
[It's something he wouldn't put past himself with all the shit he's done when he was younger, really...]
no subject
... I mean...
... When ... do you go home?
no subject
Still.]
... You really wanna know?
no subject
[... She's lost so many people...]
... I guess I don't...
no subject
As you wish.
[The duelist finally moves away from the ROTTING MONSTER and settles down next to Heather.]
... I've missed you, you know.
no subject
[... Well, technically, of course, they're both ALREADY adults, but they're still in that hazy gap between the teenage years and real adulthood. She's always seen him as "another kid", in any case.]
... I'd ... say the same to you, but...
[A weak laugh, because that 'I just saw you this morning' thing is still a thing.]
... I guess I should be flattered... to be missed and stuff.
no subject
Crow responds with a laugh of his own, though his probably comes off far more relaxed than hers.]
I know, I know... You'll be seeing me again by the end of the day.
[He didn't mean it as a compliment per say, but hey, she's free to take it as such. That works just fine.]
I'll have you know you're pretty easy to miss.
[As in, to feel sad when she's not around, not fail to notice her. That's for sure.]
... Though I guess I should apologize in advance for having vanished so suddenly on you.
[Weird tense structure aside, it sounds like a genuine apology.]
no subject
Don't.
I know it's not your fault.
[Of course she's bitter-- just a little-- at everyone who'd disappeared. It's one of those irrational human emotions you couldn't really help. But she knows better than to think it's justified.]
[But all the same, she says it stiffly, not quite facing him.]
no subject
[Even Crow isn't arrogant to believe he could decide whether to stay or go, but since he knows what losing a friend means, he can't really blame her if she's mad at him later, no matter how irrational it would be.]
But I've got a hunch you might feel that way when it comes to it.
That's how it usually goes, isn't it?
SOB this thread
I'd say I'm sorry but I'm not :(
Hey, what's with the long face? You said yourself that I'm still here.
;-; DAMMIT LY
Well-- YEAH, but... I'm just gonna lose you like everybody else, aren't I?!
I'm supposed to be happy about that?!
CAN'T HELP IT
Dunno, depends how you look at it.
I mean, I'm pretty sure I was a pain in the ass sometimes, so...
[Whether it's an attempt at a joke or his way of telling her to always look on the bright side of life is debatable.
Might as well be both.]
this is why we can't have nice things
... Yeah, actually, you ARE a pain in the ass...
[But a pain in the ass that she likes having around. :c]
tough luck
See? It won't be that bad!
[... That is probably the least helpful thing to say in this situation, honestly.]
Now cheer up. I've told you before -- or if I haven't yet then I will tell you at some point, I don't know for sure -- that I don't like it when you're all grumpy like that.
>:'(
I'm practically always grumpy like this, what're you talkin' about...
don't give me that look :(
[He reaches out to poke her cheek lightly.]
I seem to recall you being happier than this!
>8'(!!!!!!!!!!!
If you recall correctly... things are kinda rough right now.
that's even worse 8(
Aren't they ever.
[With that, Crow looks away from her and up to the sky, remaining silent for a moment before speaking up again.]
Look, I can't promise you things will get better instantly, and I'd lie if I said there won't be rough times later on, too. That's how life works, and you probably know it very well by now.
But you should always remember there's a bright future ahead of you.
