no subject
[He gets up, slowly, and makes his way over to the bed and pokes Tavros in the face, making sure to avoid any bruises.]
Got my throat a little battered and I'm gonna have to cut my hair 'cuz I lost a few hunks. But I'm alright. We both got pretty messed up.
[A wince, and Masaru grabs some of the water on the bedside, swallowing and cringing at the cold and the effort.]
no subject
[He blinked up at him after the facepoke. Yesterday felt like a chaotic blur, yet he could remember everything that happened clearly enough. Except he didn't remember Masaru getting hurt.]
But, you were in weapon form, how...
no subject
Went after the green troll woman and Karkat after you went down. Got my ass handed to me.
She... put me down, but didn't do anything serious. We were damn lucky.
no subject
[The green troll woman, who... now that his head was clearer, couldn't have been Kanaya... could it? He wasn't sure, really. At least the Madness seemed to be gone now, or at least mostly.]
You didn't, have to do that... but, uh, thanks.
no subject
[He doesn't know for sure what to say after that at first, squirming a little bit in a bout of awkwardness. There's something more important to talk about, but he's hesitant to start.]
I'm... sorry for what happened. I didn't know my weapon-form could do that...
no subject
I didn't know, either, so, I don't think it was your fault... but, uhh... what happened, exactly?
no subject
You remember me mentioning my partner back home, Agumon, right?
no subject
Yeah, a little...
no subject
[Masaru swallows heavily. But a man can not hide from his faults]
He got hurt because of it. 'Cuz I couldn't control myself. I didn't know that carried over to my Weapon form, but it's still my fault it got that bad. I'm... damn it, I'm sorry.
no subject
[He frowns, but not at Masaru. He reaches out a hand toward him, but can't quite reach, his fingertips just brushing past Masaru's instead.]
Don't, uh, feel bad. I know you, wouldn't hurt me on purpose or anything. If anything, I should have been able to, control myself better...
no subject
It'd be easy to drop it there. He'd gotten past the important bump and damn does it hurt to talk. But if he stops now he'll never start again.]
I haven't been a very good partner lately.
no subject
...Huh? What do you, mean? You're a great partner.
no subject
Or a good- [He pauses, struggling with the foreign word] - moirail either. I knew something was wrong but I thought if I just kept trying to cheer you up you'd feel better eventually. I didn't notice how... sad and mad you were.I mean, I know the madness was a lot of that but ...
no subject
[He instinctively draws his hand back to his side and looks up at the ceiling.]
The madness did make it a lot worse, so, it's, not a big deal...
no subject
no subject
[rubs at his eyes a little, tiredly.]
I don't think there's anything to be, done. It's just how things are for me.
no subject
[He had been trying to yell without thinking about it, and his voice somehow feels like it's bleeding even though he knows that's stupid, that it's just snot and soreness and oh god he wasn't going to be able to talk at all if he kept this up.
As it is, it's no yell. More like something a dying frog would make.]
I've... seen you not hurt and sad and kicking yourself... and not just when we were nuts. But I can't make you see it...
no subject
[He was getting a sense of deja vu, here. Kurt had gotten upset over him like this before too, hadn't he?]
I know that, I've been happy here, probably, happier than I've ever been on Alternia, but, it never lasts because I always mess something up, or something happens I can't do anything about, and it always comes back to this... I... I just, don't know what I'm supposed to do now... I'm afraid, to keep trying to be brave and strong, when I already know how it's going to, end.
[gestures to himself and the clinic room.]
This... this isn't a fairy tale. I can't be the hero like Pupa Pan, because, Pupa Pan isn't real, but I am real, and the reality is, this is what I am. I realize that, now. I'm real, and, I don't get to have a, happy ending.
no subject
You're right, this is real life. None'a us are heroes and there's no such thing as a happy ending. [Even with his ruined voice, it's obvious Masaru isn't exactly pleased]
But you DON'T know how it's gonna end. I don't, Vriska doesn't, Roy doesn't, damn it Shibusen and the Witches don't know!
It's never just gonna be good all the time, but it isn't bad all the time either. We just gotta... do our best when it's bad so we can get back to the good stuff. You don't... you don't gotta be Pupa Pan to try and have a good life. To be happy.
no subject
[He looks up at the ceiling for a minute, his breathing a little uneven.]
Can you, teach me, how to live like that?
no subject
Still, he smiles weakly, his tone softer]
No, you gotta figure that out yourself But... I'll live it with you, if you want.
