_{[ Morning. Still no sign of family or friends. She and Korea had something on their agenda yesterday, but with all the commotion lately, it will have to wait for now. ]}

Doctor? Doctor... Ciel. _{[ The exhaustion in her voice is from staying up all night watching out for Chizuko and herself. She feels weak. That's from the possession. No, she doesn't want to close her eyes. ]} Doctor, Ciel, anyone, please. _{[ Breathes in, pushes her bangs up and keeps her voice from cracking. ]} Please? Anyone who knows where Japan and Vietnam are _{[ Vietnam, because she doesn't want anyone asking her who jiejie is - no time. ]} if they're still alive... No, they're definitely alive. They're alive! So you gotta tell me where they are. You gotta tell me how to get rid of - I.

... I can't move my hand...

_{[ There's silence long enough to make one believe that she's already hung up. Then, a more cheerful, teasing voice speaks. ]}






Ah, you people take too long to answer! Well, I guess it doesn't matter anymore. It's okay now. Problem solved! Yaaaay.

_{[ ooc: An angel burst from Taiwan's mind. All replies will be by Angel!Taiwan - that is, an angel using Taiwan's voice. ]}

I don't know... But I'm just glad you're back now.

[He raises his hand, tentatively reaching out for hers before deciding against it and pulling back.]

_{[ Of course, she oblivious to all of this. She removes her hands from her face. ]}

I...

_{[ she swallows ]}

I'm glad, too.

[naicha]

They say that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right? And I'm alive now... _{[ She opens and closes her hand - she same hand she thought turned into stone. She still can't believe it. ]} So... um... I'd like to think of it as that sort of experience.

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

[Hachibe smiles at that, looking the tiniest bit relieved.]

Yeah, I guess that's a good way to think of it. And at least I got the angel that killed you back for it.

[Allowing himself a momentary confident grin, clenching his fist in front of him while nodding.]

[naicha]

Oh, is that so? Thank you!

[naicha]

_{[ Pillow, meet Hachibe's face. ]}

Not. Don't lie about things like that!

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

[He looks pretty proud of himself until the pillow hits him in the face.]

But it's true! I really did fight one! It was hiding in the corner when I came upstairs to put you down on the bed.

[naicha]

_{[ She wants to argue, but you're just a kid. She looks at herself, though, and ponders on whether she'd like to be told the same. ]}

... Really?

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

It's true, I swear!

[He holds up his fists - they're bruised and red at the knuckles, like he's been punching something hard.]

_{[ It's no joke. ]}

oh... orz 2/2

[naicha]

... I'm sorry.

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

Huh? Why are you apologizing?

[naicha]

Because Hachibe got hurt when he wasn't supposed to!

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

You don't need to apologize over something like that! I did it because I wanted to. I told you I'd always come running when you're in trouble, didn't I?

[He sighs a little, rubbing at the back of his neck. But at least he's still smiling.]

Even if I did show up a little late.

[naicha]

Stupid. Don't run into danger like that! _{[ Hypocrite... ]}

[naicha]

... You did your best. Thank you.

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

[Aw yeah, validation! Hachibe seems to be in a much better mood after that, grinning from ear to ear.]

I'll definitely always be here for you, Taiwan. I promise.

[He reaches over to briefly and affectionately pat the area of the blanket that her feet are under. It's hopefully more reassuring and sweet than disturbing and perverted this time, haha.]
