Ehh, ehh? This place looks kinda interesting~ [Ryuutaros puts his hands behind his head and takes several overexaggerated steps, while looking up at the sky. He stops suddenly and takes a more serious look around.]

Hey, how come I'm the only one here? Where'd those guys with the weird faces go? How come the train's not coming to pick me up?

[He turns around in place several times to look in all directions. Upon realizing that he doesn't recognize anything, he plops down on the ground and prods his boot with a finger, mumbling. Glancing over at the bar for a moment, he weighs the idea of going to get a drink but decides against it.] ...I bet Airi-neechan's drinks are a hundred times better anyway.

[Missing the other Taros right about now? Of course not! Nope, definitely no missing going on here.]

That's right. [Nods. Can you put the pieces together, Ryuuta?]

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

[.... we're sorry, the brain you are attempting to access cannot comprehend your query. Please try your call again later. This is a recording.]

... [He shakes his head and throws his hands up] But it's completely different!

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[The sudden movement has Ryotarou flinching back the tiniest bit.]

... Different?

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

[He waves his arms around to further his attempted explanation]

Because Ryoutaro's still related to neechan, right?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

I am... she's my little sister, though.

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

....................

[Nope. Sorry. No comprende. SORRY RYOTAROU, BUT RYUTA'S THICK.]

But you're still related, so- [His voice drops to a mumble]it's not like you'd try and take neechan away, right?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

... Away?

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

Yeah! See, see, you don't get it either right?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure if I do or not. What do you mean by that?

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

[Ryuta stares at the floor and fidgets.] Because- it's- because if neechan's always spending time with one person, then she wouldn't spend time with anyone else! ...Right?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

... ah. No. You don't have to worry about that. [In fact, Ryotarou takes great pains to not hang around. It's Sakurai's fault if he spends time with his sister. :| ... most of the time.]

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

[More frowning.] But- then- explain, explain! [Sadface]

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

Explain what?

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

If you're not going to take neechan away, then how come other me doesn't like you?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

I think... he thinks I'm going to.

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

So just tell him you're not! That's easy, right?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

I'm not so sure...

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

Heeeey! It's the other me, right? [He ponders for a moment.] ...but maybe you should bring Deneb candies with you too. You have those, right?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

Deneb would probably give me some if I asked. [And by 'some', he means an entire basket.]

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

YAY! Don't worry, you can do it! Cause you're still Ryoutaro~ ehee~

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

I don't know if that will really help in the long run.

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

But it's good to feel better for a little while, right?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

... Ehhh?

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

Cause Ryotarou always gets worked up about things!

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[... fffft. Looks away a little.] It's fine.
