Fourteenth Firefly - [voice/action]

[Seto knew something was wrong when he woke up. Baldr had even been acting weird. So he tried to contact Lightning over the journals. She should've come home from her mission by now. Baldr was no doubt just anxious to get back to her. But when he tried to set up a filter, it instantly broke.

He knows just as much as anyone what a broken filter means, and even when someone's on a mission, something like this doesn't happen. But despite knowing he went to her house with Baldr and found that all trace of her was gone. The dog had gone around the house and sniffed about for his owner but there was nothing. Not even the clothes in her closet were there.

It was just so bare.  What he feared was true.

When he returned home, he took a minute to sit down with the dog and hug him, burying his face into his black fur as the tears threaten to ove. It hurt, knowing that yet another one of his friends was now gone. Nagisa, Terra, Kazuma and now her. Lightning being another one of those who was very important to him. Especially considering what had happened between them not too long ago. He wanted to fix them.  To fix what he had broken.

It takes him a few minutes before he finally grabs his journal and opens it up to make the annoucement. It’s been a while since he’s done something like this so for a good few seconds, there’s nothing but silence as he tries to bring himself to say those words.]


…Lightning has been sent home. [Said gently and sadly. He pets Baldr's head as he lays down beside him.]

I… don’t know if she left anything behind for anyone. I went to her house but nothing’s there. [Granted he didn’t snoop around but he felt it was wrong to do so, even though she isn’t here anymore.

He still feels like he has to be careful where he steps when it comes to her. He wanted to gain her trust back, he was slowly getting there but now… no, come now Seto, maybe she’ll come back one day. And he can try again, even start from scratch if he has to.

“Friends always see each other again.”

Right…

He isn't sure what else to say so there's a long pause before he speaks up again.]
Does anyone want to go on a walk with Baldr and I? I know it’s cold but I think he’s sad… [Seto’s no expert on dogs by any means, he’s more of a cat whisperer, but still. Maybe a walk will do him some kind of good. Seto too.

Whether anyone has decided to join him or not, a little bit after his entry goes up, Seto will be walking around the village bundled up with a big black dog at his side. He’ll be seen just about anywhere around the village so feel free to bug him!]

But you're sad right neow. Tao can feel it.

[She attempts to put a paw on his back or...something.]

[She slowly nods.]

With my kitty senses, meow.

[And her feline instincts don't lie.]

[She allows him to do that, ears twitching at the contact.]

Can Tao do anything you make you feel better...?

[Her ears perk up at the request.]

Sure! I always like spending time with friends, and I like being with you too, meow!

Ooh...Tao loves playing! What game, what game?

[And if it makes him smile, that's even better.]

Ooh! Ooh! I do, I do! Tao is good at hiding and seeking!

[Though partially because her seeking consists of sniffing out the other person's scent, so...]

I wanna hide, meow!

[Because if she was the seeker, she'd sort of cheat with her above-average feline senses, like hearing, and...that wouldn't be fun for Seto. Even though she's not all too good at staying still.]

Ready!

[Quickly and quietly, she tries to sneak away, footsteps pattering on the floor of the house. Where to hide, where to hide...?]

[Tao scrambles into a few other rooms, scoping them all out for a little while before she picks one in particular. There is what seems to be a rather audible thump, near the end of Seto's counting.]

[See, the key word is hiding under...which Tao isn't exactly doing. After all, she's waiting on the ceiling of her own room, claws embedded in it. She tries not to make a sound, keeping her tail and ears still.]
catus_carnival: (☼ '∀')

[action] aw ye

[personal profile] catus_carnival 2013-03-18 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[She will wait on the ceiling for as long as she needs...trying to still and not swish her tail or anything.

This technically isn't cheating!]

[Instead of moping around or acting disappointed (even though she is a bit disappointed, really), Tao breaks into a grin too, and hops down from the ceiling, landing on her feet like any good cat/cat person would.]

You did, you did! Good job, Blue Guy!
