[there are noises from upstairs!]

[weatherfairy]

[what kind of noises?]

[u-jerk.livejournal.com]

[like somebody coming down from the top floor. raps on a window a second later]

[weatherfairy]

[turns around at the sound, then blinks and heads for said window]

Eh...?

[u-jerk.livejournal.com]

[waves and mouths "I'll be in in a sec"]

[weatherfairy]

[nods and leaves his door open, flopping to lay down on his bed]

[aaand coming in, shutting the door behind himself]

Welcome back.

[weatherfairy]

[takes a breath, and looks down]

Mh. T... thanks.

[sitting on the bed next to him]

So where'd you end up?

[weatherfairy]

I... don't remember. It was a forest behind the cabin.

. . . there's not a forest there now, right? Maybe I'm going insane.

[u-jerk.livejournal.com]

Not for a ways. Like, right up against it?

[weatherfairy]

[nods and goes to bury his face in his pillow]

Insane. [muffled]

[u-jerk.livejournal.com]

[hey, hey. hand on the back of his neck]

No, this place is insane.

[weatherfairy]

[laughs a little]

Yeah, I heard my parents.

[...curls his fingers slightly]

...did they tell you you were a pretty princess and had to stay with them or some crap like that?

[weatherfairy]

They said they missed me. It sounded so real.

[u-jerk.livejournal.com]

...

[weatherfairy]

You know... I kind of hate wind. The sound of it.

[u-jerk.livejournal.com]

You mean here? Back home you study it.

[weatherfairy]

Everywhere. I don't dare go out if there's a storm coming up. It's ridiculous and petty.

[u-jerk.livejournal.com]

... no it's not.

[weatherfairy]

Not even if it's a little windy.

[u-jerk.livejournal.com]

... there was a while when I wouldn't talk about myself to anybody. At all. I'd beat them down if they asked.

Kazahaya's still a little like that.

People don't want to deal with the shit that bothers them. Is it so dumb to not want to get hurt?

[weatherfairy]

It is if you're losing people because of it. I don't want people to get hurt because of me.

I was the wind. In the forest, I mean.

[...strokes his hair]

That sounds like the princess thing. A friend of Tohru's got grabbed too.

Doesn't mean it was what he wanted.
