Fourth Wall - [action]

[presumablyalone]

[Unfortunately, Seto has been put on lock down pretty much.  Firo managed to convince him to stay put inside or just out in the front yard since he's been wandering off too far lately.  But fortunately (or unfortunately for Firo) because of his vision, Seto has no idea how long the front yard goes for.  

So starting off at house 48, he starts walking.  But... he starts bumping into people almost instantly.  Good lord how many people are out and about today?  He sure can't tell with this vision]

I-I'm sorry! [God it sucks not being able to see]

[Seto turns around to where he thinks Firo is and frowns]

I-I was going to the edge of the yard. Didn't you say I could go that far? [Really! He just has no idea he went too far... ]

[immamartillo]

You mean the edge of the yard you left behind fifty feet ago?

[...Okay, maybe it's not that far back. ]

[presumablyalone]

W-What?! I-It's all the way back there?

[DEAR GOD HOW DID HE GET OVER HERE]

[immamartillo]

Okay, well... More like 20.

[ He frowns, desperately trying not to just give in and immediately forgive Seto. ]

Still, you shoulda' stayed put.

[presumablyalone]

I-I'm sorry, Firo... I didn't mean to wander too far, I just can't see.

[He's going to give Firo a frown. He really is sorry :c]

[immamartillo]

[ ...Gosh darn it, Seto, he can't yell at you when you look so sad. Resolve crumbling, Firo glances away. ]

I-it's fine. Just don't do it again, okay?

[presumablyalone]

[Seto: 1 Firo: 0]

Okay! I promise I won't do it again.

[immamartillo]

[ No surprise there. ]

That's all I can ask. You wanna go back or you wanna go somewhere?

[ This time Firo will keep his eyes on you, you rascal. ]

[presumablyalone]

[Can Seto grab your hand Firo? He needs a little guidance... and someone to keep him steady]

Can we go to the store? I want to make soup tonight.

[immamartillo]

[ Firo holds on to Seto's hand; all the better to make sure he doesn't run off. ]

Sure. What kind?

[ Just give him a moment to realize that blindness+stove is not a good idea. ]

[presumablyalone]

[Squeezing his hand a little]

Hm... chicken noodle? I had that once before and it was actually really good!

[immamartillo]

[ Firo smiles down at him and squeezes back. ]

It is good, huh? Especially in winter.

[presumablyalone]

Mm! We'll have to share some with Kazuma and Tao.

[They'll have to get a few cans :|a]

[immamartillo]

Oh, definitely.

[ He nods quickly. After Tao tried chomping on him, Firo doesn't want to see her get hungry. He hasn't realized that that was because of the horoscopes. ]

We could probably put a lot together at once and it wouldn't take too long.

[presumablyalone]

Yeah! Do you think we can invite Emil over too? I still feel bad for missing Christmas dinner...

[Sob]

[immamartillo]

I told you not to feel bad about that...

[ He pats Seto's shoulder and tries to sound more upbeat. No sense in dragging on that subject; Seto will probably never heed that. ]

But sure. So that's... five people.

[ He totally didn't count that on his fingers. ]

[presumablyalone]

I can't help it...

[Even Emil tried to tell him it was okay, but he still feels guilty! :c]

Do we have enough room at the table at home?

[immamartillo]

[ Firo nods, understanding, and lets that go. ]

Probably. We can make room.

[ The Martillos never let space constraints get in the way of anything, and Firo's not about to let that tradition die in Luceti. ]

[presumablyalone]

Good!

[He wouldn't want to have a bunch of people come over and not have enough room]

[immamartillo]

I just hope we'll be able to get enough...

[ Forgetting that Luceti doesn't require money, Firo reaches into his jacket pocket to root around for his wallet. ]

[presumablyalone]

Why wouldn't we be able to?

[Giving the other a confused look]

[immamartillo]

I haven't checked what soup costs in a while- Oh. Right.

[ He scratches his head, smiling in embarrassment. ]

Never mind. I keep forgettin' everything's free here. It's weird.

[presumablyalone]

[ ....... ]

[presumablyalone]

[Snrk.... ]

[presumablyalone]

[And he starts laughing]
