Game 140

Who: Anyone
Where: The Arena
When: Day 229, noonish
What: [On the throne today is a smiling youth, face ringed by black curls. He has a harp-like instrument in his lap and a pen behind his ear. It's been a while since any have seen him, but, perhaps, to the oldest and most keen observers here, he seems perhaps a touch thinner than last time. The Arena is not terribly decorated for his appearance, indeed, if not for the statue sitting there, one would not be sure this was really a call at all.]


Good afternoon, duckies, good afternoon! Who's ready for some wholesome (and platonic!) self-exploration and completely non-fatal fun, hmm? I know I certainly am.  Yes, I'm sure you've all been having just unbearable amounts of fun, but you know, let's just- . . .


[clears his throat]


Ahem. Sorry, I was saying, let's just slow it down.  Maybe, oh, I don't know, talk about our feelings a while.

((Technically, yes, this is a loser game, but anyone can play.))

. . . You moving way too fast with Watanuki makes me really worried. I know he's important to you, but I've been with him the whole time he's been here. You don't have to be so suspicious of me, or the people close to him. I don't know why you don't think it's good that he can relax around other people.

... He might be better off if I wasn't here at all. You were all protecting him.

... We're still protecting him as much as we can. And we'll continue to do so. And he cares about you, so don't waste your time on thinking he'd be better off without you.

[holding his hand out]

I trust you to keep him safe.

. . . [w-what]


That sounds really strange coming from someone who's so anxious about anyone else being close to him... do you seriously... if you do, you could at least relax a little...

I don't remember anyone else being able to help him. It's a hard idea to get used to.

... But it's good for him, isn't it?

Yes. You are good for him.

Not just me... he has Syaoran too, and the others on our teams. And friends on other teams. They're all good for him. His life is so perilous, he needs a lot of anchors.

How is his life more perilous than anyone else here?

I know he's killed himself before.
