[Well. Here's Hei. He appears near the Astral Theater and just sort of stands there for a minute, staring out across the Plane. Eventually he sits down with his back to the wall of the theater, folding his arms on top of his knees. He keeps staring out at Nothing In Particular.

[He looks utterly lost.]

Li! [Shun's happy to see him until he gets close and gets a good look at him] Are you all right? [And he's kneeling next to you Hei]

[contract_star]

[Scoots away and doesn't answer for awhile.]

...I'm alright, yeah.

[He doesn't believe you Hei] Are you sure? Mu said something happened to you.

[madamemoiselle]

{A pause, then she sits down next to him, drawing her knees up to her chest. As creepy as it sounds, she can smell the difference in the blood.} Hei?

[contract_star]

[Edges away, trying to put distance between them.]

[After awhile,] You can tell, can't you?

Li-san?! [ Nanoha runs over and pauses in front of him. ] Li-san, what happened?

[contract_star]

[Tries hard not to flinch at how close she gets to him and fails. But he does manage to plaster on a completely fake smile.]

Miss Nanoha. I'm alright. I'm just tired.

[Dino had been intending to yell at you when he saw you again Hei, but he can't stay that mad when he sees the expression on your face. So he'll just stand there, watching you, not sure what to say anymore.]

[contract_star]

[For awhile he doesn't say anything or even seem to acknowledge Dino's presence.]

[Then, without emotion,] Did he tell the entire Plane or something?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[lkfndlkn Worried and concerned and just generally really freaked out after talking with Mu. It's possible Hei was just taking a break from the Plane and went somewhere Mu couldn't sense, but he knows people come back from the dead and it's scary how likely it is that's what's happened. He shifts on his feet, takes a step or two forward, then just stands nearby, not getting very close, not yet.]

Li-san...

[contract_star]

[Hei is so very thankful that you're keeping your distance.]

Hi, Ryotarou.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[She sits down about six feet away, her own back to the wall, and stares out at the stars. He doesn't have to say anything, even acknowledge her--it's enough, for her, to be where he can reach her if there's a need.]

[contract_star]

[Looks over and stares at her. It's quite awhile before he speaks.]

Misaki. [Whatever he was going to say beyond that dies before he can say it.]

[brokenamethysts.livejournal.com]

...Li?

[contract_star]

[Doesn't answer for awhile.]

Yes?

[lamb_of_gold]

[Much like Dino, there was a potential grilling here, but be content with an epic frown]

[contract_star]

[For a long time he doesn't say anything or even react to Mu's presence.]

You told them.

[and the Master appears~]

Hello, Mr. Shengshun.

[and he's grinning like the devil himself]

[contract_star]

[Hei says nothing, but he presses backward ever so slightly against the wall. He stays quiet, waiting for the Master to do whatever it is he's going to do.]

Hei? [Have a concerned and no longer naked Jack]

[contract_star]

[It takes Hei awhile to acknowledge Jack's presence.]

Jack.

[Ikki is probably the only person unaware of what happens around here. He has to train a lot, damn it. Seeing that look on Hei's face makes his Team Senses go off though.]

Li?

[contract_star]

[Doesn't look up at him.]

Hi, Ikki.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

[Ianto takes one look at him before dropping, returning a few minutes later with a mug of coffee.]

[contract_star]

[Hei looks up and stares at Ianto a moment before speaking.]

Oh. Thanks. But...coffee is probably a bad idea right now.
