012 - Like Someone Knocking in the Walls

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

[And here he is, presumably having escaped the TARDIS somehow. x: He looks calm and healthy, aside from wearing the same clothes he's had on since the fight with Zeronos, being a bit ripe-smelling for lack of hygienic impetus, and noticeably thinner than he was at the start of this whole affair.

He also looks mildly confused.]




[Annnnd it's the peak of Firo's experiment, which means he won't remember himself at all during the following conversations--he'll skip from memory to memory, blending lives and situations in order to respond appropriately to whoever he's speaking to. There may be some flashes of himself that come through--there may also be memories of violent encounters, just a warning for if you tag.]

[... Ryotarou just kind of freezes at seeing Firo. He's pretty sure that the best idea would be to turn and leave so that the last time doesn't repeat itself, but for a moment, all he can do is watch.]

[TOO LATE. Spotted. His expression twists for a moment, but horror wins out.] I didn't... It's not...

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Ryotarou looks confused for a moment, then worried. It doesn't look like he's dealing with the man he knows, or the one from before.]

Didn't what?

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

[Panicked] I didn't mean to! It's not my fault, daddy, I swear!

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

'Daddy'? [o__o Remembering what Ammy said is pretty much the only thing keeping him from flailing to the max, although he does manage to flail just a little, even in the serious situation.]

... I-it's okay. Didn't mean to what..?

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

Why isn't he moving? He... we were playing! He pinched me. I didn't mean to!

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[... oh no. Ryotarou has no idea what to do, but he tries winging it as best he can.]

I-I'm sure it was an accident. He's probably just still playing... you know how he is.

[Sway... and then different memory.] Idiot should have been back hours ago.

[He sighs, then offers Ryotarou a long-suffering smile.] Never can go without proving a point, can he?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Give Ryotarou a moment to adjust to the fact that he's apparently dealing with something entirely different now... before he gives a slightly uncertain smile back.]

I guess not.

[Firo blinks and looks somewhat confused for a moment.] This isn't... right... I'm not...

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

Ah...! [Takes a step forward, because this looks like the real Firo, but he doesn't get any closer, just in case it might be a repeat of a few days ago.]

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

[Looks straight at him.] It wasn't anything personal, y'know. I just did what they told me too.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Frowning a little.] ... Is that so?

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

Well yeah. It was a test, and all. Just 'cause you didn't pass, don't take it out on me.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

A... test?

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

Test, trial, whatever. [Shoving his hands in his pockets.]

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

I guess.. if I didn't pass, I can't really blame it on you, can I?

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

Well. [Kicks at nothing.] I was just better, I guess.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[nods] Then, you deserve it.
