Who: denyingreasons, 300yrswandering
What: Broship; just Naoki and Ted, c’mon. Hanging out…kinda.
When: Friday.
Where: Community Building 7, Floor 5, Room 21.
Summary: So Nami and Usopp have gone home. Naoki isn’t exactly in the best of moods. Solution: run to Ted, of course.
Rating: Idek. Nothing over PG. Barely over G? ...but here's a warning for SAP. So. Much. Sap.

[Gone. Naoki couldn’t believe it. He didn’t even want to believe it. It was easier to deny that they weren’t gone, not both of them within a few days. It wasn’t fair.

And he knew he was being a brat about it. A selfish one. Because he didn’t want them to go where he couldn’t see them anymore. He wanted them h—no. It was a thought that he couldn’t help but be angry at himself for. It was the thought that had drove him outside into the cold wind and snow, hands buried in his pockets and eyes fixed on the ground.

He wasn’t sure where to go. He’d left a note for Isamu and Richard and would likely contact them over the journals later but for now, he just—

Naoki stops, looks up. Community building 7…huh? He hadn’t even noticed his feet leading him here. But without preamble he was entering and scaling the steps. He had almost expected his body to take him here. There was just something…heh. He wanted to see Ted, he guessed. Somehow he was comforted around him. Soon enough he’d reach the door to his apartment and if his knock received no answer…he would sit on the floor next to it.

Waiting.]

Nope. Not in the least. [With authority!]

[souljudgment.livejournal.com]

[He smiles at that, falling back to companionable silence.]

[scalethetower.livejournal.com]

[He's keeping heading along their merry way, then. Naoki hums a bit as they go.]

[souljudgment.livejournal.com]

[He looks at him curiously at the humming, wondering about the song, but not saying anything about it.]

[scalethetower.livejournal.com]

[It's a rather peaceful (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LXl4y6D-QI) little tune. His eyes stay focused ahead, posture relaxed.]

[souljudgment.livejournal.com]

[It was a good tune, certainly. He has no complaints there.]

[scalethetower.livejournal.com]

[Naoki continues to hum it the way back, a faint smile lingering. He's had a particular fondness of that song for a while.]

[souljudgment.livejournal.com]

A song from your world? [He asks, eventually letting curiosity beat the silence.]

[scalethetower.livejournal.com]

Yup... My dad used to play it, on piano. [Naoki glances over, then forward.] It's called the Clair de Lune.

[souljudgment.livejournal.com]

Clair de Lune?

[scalethetower.livejournal.com]

Mmhm. It means 'moonlight', in French--one of the languages where I'm from.

[souljudgment.livejournal.com]

The language sounds pretty familiar, actually. [He remembered some places with those kinds of names. Odd.]

[scalethetower.livejournal.com]

[Naoki blinks at him and gives a low 'huh', itching at his hair.] Fancy that...

[souljudgment.livejournal.com]

Really. It's pretty strange. [Though he sounds amused.]

[scalethetower.livejournal.com]

Heh--maybe it's fine just not to question it. [Naoki laughs and shrugs his shoulders.] So many worlds are oddly similar sometimes.

[souljudgment.livejournal.com]

You'd have to wonder sometimes who made them all like that, huh? [Clearly, it's Japan.]

[scalethetower.livejournal.com]

[Always Japan.] Sometimes I do. [He grins, shakes his head.]

[souljudgment.livejournal.com]

[A smile.] You're right though, it's probably better we don't question it. It'll definitely give us a headache.

[scalethetower.livejournal.com]

Yep, probably! There's just some things you shouldn't think on too hard.

[souljudgment.livejournal.com]

Though it makes me curious now. What else could both of our worlds have?

[scalethetower.livejournal.com]

Hmm... Maybe we could start keeping a list.

[souljudgment.livejournal.com]

Wanna try making one now?

[scalethetower.livejournal.com]

[...Grin.] Sure. We might need some paper or something once we get back. Who knows how long it'll get.

[souljudgment.livejournal.com]

Then let's head to the shop instead! I'm sure Usopp wouldn't mind if we take a few along with us.

[scalethetower.livejournal.com]

[Naoki grins in amusement, switches the direction he's walking.] Hmm, let's.
