[Eighteenth Canon] : [Audio | Locked from Hostiles | Backdate - October 5th (BEFORE Tei's post) ]

[trapsound]

(ooc: I herped so hard I derped. I realized I should have put the source of Tei's upset and reason for posting BEFORE her actual post... but then I didn't. So, here's a sad Ritsu singing only half a song. Translation and full song (as sung by Miku) are here. And Miku has done this one once before, but mun gave me permission to use it again. )

[just as the second verse starts, Ritsu's voice cracks, and he stops.]

... I can't--...

[the music continues for another second before the comm shuts off]

What's going on?

[stuck on audio, because he doesn't want anyone to see him cry. Not that it helps the fact that it can be heard very clearly, what with the sniffling and all]

I just want Sai home...

[350pointsmile.livejournal.com]

Has there been any word on...well any of it?

[Comforting is NOT her strong suit. Just ask Scott. OH WAIT YOU CAN'T BECAUSE HE'S NOT HEEEEEEEERE]

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

No... nothing...

[hiccups]

I should be stronger than this... I can't just fall apart without him...

[350pointsmile.livejournal.com]

Sometimes you gotta fall apart so you can pull yourself back together ya know?

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

What happens if you can't pull yourself back together, though?

[350pointsmile.livejournal.com]

Then uh...

...then you pick up as many pieces as you can and hold onto them tight.

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

... sounds easier said than done...

[350pointsmile.livejournal.com]

No kidding.

Sounds like you've been stuck in your head for too long though. You need a break from it. What do you usually do to relax?

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

You just heard it... it's not working to terribly well, as you can probably tell.

[another sniffle]

I really don't know what to do anymore...

[350pointsmile.livejournal.com]

[Sigh]

fine, where are you now?

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

In the office...

[350pointsmile.livejournal.com]

Good, I'm coming over. We're going to get drunk, watch a stupid movie or TV show. Something nice and mind numbing.

And cake, I feel like some chocolate cake.

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

... heh. No sense arguing, I suppose.

[350pointsmile.livejournal.com]

Exactly. You'll thank me later.

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

I suppose I will. Thank you, Kim...
