Appointments Post

This post can be used to thread with or get in contact with Gai at any point when he doesn't have a post up! Just comment here (please use the format [Action, June 24th], [Voice, March 5th], etc. to make it clear when the thread is taking place and what type of thread it is) for a thread with him; if it's a continuation of another thread or post, please link that so I remember the context of the thread.

[Gai doesn't believe that for one moment. He's pretty damn sure there were words exchanged about him and Elizabeth, though he's not entirely sure just what those words are. Not that it matters-- he'll find out eventually either way.]

That was thoughtful of you.

[No Gai No. Don't expose Shu's shame. He just shakes his head twice.]

It's nothing. [Moving along. They don't need to talk about this (even if Shu was the one who brought it up but that's besides the point.) Gai can get clothes and stuff later. Shu drags Gai down the hallway if Gai will allow him to. ]

Let's go someplace else.

Where are we going?

[Now Gai does sound a bit irritated because he has no idea what Shu has in mind here. He'd just come back to pick up a few things, not go on a field trip... but he's not trying to pull away from Shu either.]

Where else? We're going to get something to eat.

[Because he is so tired and he could really use food.]

Do you want to go or not?

[You should've said so in the first place, Shu. Gosh. :|]

Yeah, sure. Let's go to Seventh Heaven.

[No! He drags Gai around and does what he wants. ]

What's so great about Seventh Heaven? I've never been there myself.

[RUDE.]

It's a restaurant that serves just about anything you can think of to ask for. Just the thing when you find yourself with a ramen craving.

[It's also where he eats most of the time, because what is cooking?]

[WOW LUNA WOW! Shu cooks most of his meals. It's something he is accustomed to.]

What will you order then? [They should be at Seventh Heaven within the next few minutes.]

[Please, like terrorists have time to cook meals.]

Don't know. It's been a while since I've had okonomiyaki... I should ask if they can do it Hiroshima-style.

[Gai do you even eat?]

They might be able to. Do they have Onigiri? [Shu that is not a meal.]

Yeah, they can make it if you ask.

[And yes, Gai does eat. In fact, he eats quite a lot, thank you.]

I'll ask. Onigiri was always Inori's favorite.

[TOO MUCH. No wonder he's so big and Shu is a prune.]

[Gai will very carefully not remark on Inori or anything along those lines, choosing instead to just walk straight through the door and into Seventh Heaven instead.]

[Shu stares at Gai for a moment before walking into Seventh Heaven with him.]

We'll have to order something. I'll ask them for food. You can find a place for us to sit.

[Gai stares right back, then shrugs, lips curling up into a smirk.]

Suit yourself.

[Fortunately it's not too crowded, so it doesn't take him long at all to find a nice quiet booth for the two of them.]

[Shu nods and orders food for the both of them. He may have ordered way too much food along with the dish Gai wanted.

He sees no problem with this. After a few minutes, Shu returns to the table Gai found.]

There you are.

[He takes the seat across from Gai.]

[Gai sees no problem with this either because he'll eat it and take any leftovers home. He burns enough energy through his training that it's not like he'll gain any weight, anyway.]

This is almost like being back at home again.

Home? [What a broad statement.]

Do you mean the world we left behind or a place where you feel safe?

[A serious question, Gai. Shu's lowering his head and he starts to feel homesick.]

I meant the world we left behind, before everything happened.

[Although perhaps calling that "home" was a misnomer. As far as he's concerned, Luceti is his home now. It's not like he can go back to their world even if he wanted to.]

Oh. [Shu's thought seem to be elsewhere. Mentioning home gets him to think a lot. ]

In that case, I suppose. [He misses those days and it shows.] It's almost time. [It's December first. By December 25th it'll mark another anniversary for Lost Christmas.]

Yeah.

[He frowns, expression darkening. Neither one of them needs to say more; they both know exactly what is meant by "almost time." It's not a subject Gai wants to dwell on, and he suspects it's the same for Shu... although this year might be different now that Shu's memories are back. Whether that will make Shu want to think about it more or less, however, still remains to be seen.]

[Shu's coming to terms with what's happened during Lost Christmas. However, it doesn't make it any easier to deal with. It was a tragedy that affected many lives and threw the world into chaos. Shu can find some comfort in the words that Gai said earlier. Everything's safe thanks to the sacrifice of many people. ]

But it's over now, isn't it? That won't happen again?

[Gai gives a quiet nod, though he's looking off into the distance rather than at Shu.]

It's all over. We stopped it for good this time. The apocalypse has finally been averted.

[But at what a cost...]

My parents would have been happy to hear that. Inori too. And everyone.

It was all thanks to you. [What Gai had to do wasn't something Shu completely understood at first. Was there really no other way to end it?

No matter what options there may have been, they were left with this conclusion. Shu would gladly lose an arm if it mean that no one had to worry about the Apocalypse Virus.]

[That pulls Gai's attention away from whatever it was he'd been staring at and back to Shu. He just stares at his friend for a moment, then shakes his head, and if Shu looks closely he may be able to see the briefest flash of a tiny, sad smile on his lips.]

My plan wouldn't have succeeded if you hadn't done exactly what I'd been counting on you to do.
