2nd

You have a few minutes to spare, Miss Huang? It would be nice if you did.



We really should meet up, despite our differences. And bring Zepia with us. Setting a few guidelines among us might be more beneficial than detrimental...just to keep infighting devastation to a minimum.



[Merem is sitting on his front porch, missing a left arm but sharing a seat with a pleasant looking priest.]

I must admit, this is a harrowing situation you've gotten yourself in, Merem.

Don't speak as if you're alone. You and me, we in this together now. What do you think you're going to do?

As long as-

Yes, I'm well aware of that line. I suppose it can't be helped. While we're here, we'll probably have to play second fiddle to humans. Let them take whatever actions they wish. I refuse to lift a finger to help unless asked though. No, I won't even offer it.

I wonder what Ciel would think of that statement? Regardless, I wish you would be more pro-active.

I could think of a few things and none of them good. I've made my decision though. Things will remain the same as it was back home.

[Feel free to bother or call.]

...mmh. That's true. [She just nods and glances forward.]

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

How old are you? It's only fair that I know.

[hasyourbeats.livejournal.com]

I don't know anymore.

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

What do you know?

[hasyourbeats.livejournal.com]

I died when I was still in high school.

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

I see. So you are technically dead.

[hasyourbeats.livejournal.com]

[And she just nods.]

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

Do you enjoy it or no?

[hasyourbeats.livejournal.com]

It's fun in the afterlife sometimes...

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

What do you find most fun there?

[hasyourbeats.livejournal.com]

I got to do things that I didn't get to do when I was alive and... friends...

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

Do you have any friends here?

[hasyourbeats.livejournal.com]

...there are none.

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

Have you made any new friends?

[hasyourbeats.livejournal.com]

Only acquaintances.

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

That so? Think I might end up being your first friend?

[hasyourbeats.livejournal.com]

...I don't know...

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

You didn't really have to answer that.

[hasyourbeats.livejournal.com]

... [okay HAVE SOME SILENCE THEN.]

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

[at least a certain old man is coming out with a cup of tea for you]

[hasyourbeats.livejournal.com]

[breaking silence to thank the old man]

...ah. Thank you.

[wise-king.livejournal.com]

You may as well take the time and enjoy yourself.

[Silently blows air to her tea and sips at it.

She still needs to find other enjoyable things in Mayfield besides reading comic books.]

[spinning his empty cup on his finger

without his rings, he's got to pick up another habit to take the place of clacking them together]

[...stares at.]

Aren't you going to have some tea?
