[there's a novelist with a small duffel and what appears to be a bag of beer and snacks, heading for the chapel.]

[he's in for an unpleasant surprise.]

*sitting on her bed, reading a book when there's a knock on the door* I hear you, coming!

*padding over and opening it up* Hello?

[write-it-in.livejournal.com]

Hey.

[holds up the bag] I come bearing alcohol.

[godsavethequeenie]

A welcome sight, I'm afraid we'll be the only two drinking though. *opens the door to let Yuki in* Take a seat.

[comes in]

Where's my brother? I need to stay here tonight.

[godsavethequeenie]

You can stay here tonight, but your brother's gone. Tatsuha's not in camp anymore.

[write-it-in.livejournal.com]

[......brain fritz. no brother. what. i. might be breaking a little.]

[godsavethequeenie]

Please sit down.

[write-it-in.livejournal.com]

[sits]

[godsavethequeenie]

You can stay here still if you want, and take Tatsuha's bed.

....you'll see him again when you get out of here. It's not like he's gone forever.

[write-it-in.livejournal.com]

I know that--!

...sorry. [searching for his cigarettes]

[godsavethequeenie]

*offers one of hers* It's fine, I'm sure that was a pretty rude awakening right now.

[write-it-in.livejournal.com]

[accepts] Thanks.

I just didn't expect it... Good for him.

[godsavethequeenie]

Yup. He's probably off getting laid somewhere as we speak.

[a bit later!]

[sans bag. the door to NG had better be open.]

[checks the cameras. . .and comes down himself to open the front door]

Eiri-kun! What a surprise!

[write-it-in.livejournal.com]

I need to stay with you for awhile.

[driveyouhard.livejournal.com]

. . .

Of course. [turns to lead the way to his office and adjacent bedroom]

[write-it-in.livejournal.com]

...did you know about Tatsuha?

[driveyouhard.livejournal.com]

Leaving?

[write-it-in.livejournal.com]

...

[driveyouhard.livejournal.com]

[. . .]

Let me get you something to drink. Can I take your bag?

[write-it-in.livejournal.com]

--you knew and you didn't tell me?

[driveyouhard.livejournal.com]

[. . .oh wait, sans bag, right? we'll pretend that didn't happen. going to get you a beer]

I didn't know until he left.

[write-it-in.livejournal.com]

[i've still got the duffel! just not the bag of stuff for nana and tatsuha]

Why didn't you tell me?

[driveyouhard.livejournal.com]

[taking the bag]

Could you have done anything, Eiri-kun? Gone after him?
