Piercing 015 ♥ Kaidou Kio ♥ [In Person]

[want-a-chupa.livejournal.com]

[For once there's no chupa in his mouth and his glasses are on the floor. The metal's too cold to have it on his face. Kio's all bundled up and looking for someone to cuddle with. So be careful if you sit next to him]

[Fully aware of what Kio will do if he's next to Soubi, Soubi sits down, close enough for Kio to lay his head on his shoulder.]

Kio. Are you feeling unwell?

[want-a-chupa.livejournal.com]

[And Kio does just that]

It's so cold, Sou-chan.

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

[A Soubi cocks his head to the side slightly, so that his cheek is just brushing Kio's hair. It won't keep Kio warm, but it's almost as if Soubi is taking comfort in Kio.]

Move your hands closer to the fire.

[Aww, snuggle, snuggle]

I c-can't. I can't even move!

[His voice is choked]

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

[Soubi's fingertips have been a bit frostbitten, so they are wrapped neatly in bandage. However, he is still perfectly willing to move his hands around. Carefully he takes hold of Kio's hands and starts guiding them over to the fire, slowly so that he doesn't hurt any muscles that might be cramping in Kio's arms.]

[Doe eyes]

Thank you.

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

[He keeps hold of Kio's hands to support them, running a thumb along their tops.]

It's fine. We'll be out of here soon.

[want-a-chupa.livejournal.com]

How can you be sure, Sou-chan?

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

[He smiles, stiffly in the cold.]

Because we are in a story, and stories must be interesting. It won't be an interesting story if we all die, will it?

[want-a-chupa.livejournal.com]

Isn't that what happens at the end of Hamlet?

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

[Soubi shrugs.]

I've never read any Western plays. But if they die at the end, that's why it's the end. And I doubt the author is ready to end this yet.

[want-a-chupa.livejournal.com]

You really think so?

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

[He sighs. His breath is not coming out as a cloud of steam; it is simply freezing and tinkling like wind-chimes down between them.]

I do.

[There is something beautiful about that sound, even if it is evidence from their killer. Kio shudders a little and leans against Soubi for comfort]
