Closed to Battler/Late Night March 27

[Tsuzuki isn't sure how he got back to the temple. There are blank spaces in his memory, spreading darknesses after that searing moment when he felt Hisoka dying and his name shattering into an equally blank and empty space where their connection had been.

The sunflowers are blooming all around the porch, and the cloying-sweet scent of orange blossoms rises from the trees along the far wall. He isn't looking at them: he knows by the scent and the flower shadows swaying over the front door.

He reaches out and fumbles, blindly, for the door handle. Smooth, worn wood under his fingertips. Door frame. His thoughts come more slowly with each moment, leaving most of the information of his senses to flow past without interpretation or comment.

A splinter stabs his index finger, and Tsuzuki notes the pain as if from a very great distance. He doesn't flinch. His hand falls on the door handle, he turns it, and the door falls open.

Tsuzuki stumbles over the sill and falls heavily against the wall just inside it, sliding down slowly until he is curled at the base of it.

He closes his eyes.

There's blood everywhere behind his eyelids.]


March 28/Open to Visitors, Hisoka in the evening

[The window is open in Tsuzuki's room. He's not sure if he opened it. It's ... familiar.

It doesn't smell like cherry blossoms outside.

This isn't Meifu.

Hisoka was a shinki, not a shinigami, and Tsuzuki couldn't protect him.

All that blood, and he couldn't heal him.

His thoughts wander by slowly, and the blanks grow between them, until he's staring out the window without thinking anything at all.]

[She blinks at that and sets it all down on the ground. Unsurprisingly, he's not hungry, got it]

I thought you would be. It's okay Tsuzu-kun. Everything will work out somehow. I know he's not here right now, but I know somehow Hisoka-san is cheering you on. No matter what happened.

[Hajime blinks as he suddenly grabs her hand. The grip on it startles her but she looks to meet his eyes. She wishes she could do something. Reassure him or bring Hisoka back. She'd happily go to hell and do that if it was possible but it isn't. She's silent for a moment, not sure what to say.]

Tsuzu-kun...

[There really is nothing she can say...so she bringa up her free hand, waving it in the air before grabbing a hold of something. Upon touching it, the thread becomes visible to him. Unlike the time when Tsuzuki saw his own thread, this thread isn't bright. It's dull and limp. It's withered and frayed in different parts as if it could break at any moment.]

It leads to where he last was I think...he's not here but he's not gone either. Bo-san and Vector-san's I can't touch or see. Hisoka-san's is still here....

[The thread speaks for itself. But it shows he's still there right? She's not experienced. She's never really seen anyone die before....]

[Hajime holds onto the thread so it remains visible for him. She isn't sure if this is good for Tsuzuki or not but it feels right to do. So she remains silently, glancing to the side as if trying to give him some sort of privacy with the thread.
