[Ryotarou appears on the Plane, hand up at his side, fist curled, as if he had been holding onto someone's arm before he showed up.] See—?! [... He notices that there's no one in his grasp, and goes still. His shoulders slump after a moment and he lets his arm drop.]

I guess... even singularity points aren't immune to this.

(ooc: Sort-of-late reaction post to Sakurai being dropped. And, uh— I might not reply right away, or reply to some people more than others, but I will reply to everyone once I get back into my groove. I just... needed to post this before it was way too late. Also: I'm sorry for all his emo lately.)

I doubt it. Don't worry about it, Amaterasu.

[Soft smile.] I'm afraid I cannot help but worry about my friends.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Small smile, but it doesn't last.] It's all right. I mean... it's not, but I'll be all right.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

May I ask just what has happened?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Nn... He shrugs.] Someone I know... doesn't remember this place anymore.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Doesn't remember? But how...? Can that happen?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

Yeah. It can.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Oh dear...oh, Ryotarou, I am so sorry...

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[He shrugs.] It's... all right. At least.. he's still there.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

But it is not quite the same, is it? Being forgotten...

[She walks forward and nuzzles his knee.]

[Ryotarou closes his eyes, merely resting a hand on her head.]

... I'm used to it.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

That is not something anyone should be used to, Ryotarou.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Slight headtilt.] Probably not.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

[Leans against him, offering to let him hug her.]

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[He stumbles a little at the unexpected weight. Hesitation is the word of the hour, as he can't seem to decide what to do, but eventually kneels down and at least pets her on the head, a small, sad smile on his face.]

[She just nuzzles his hand. So many bad things have happened to people lately...]
