[02] Talking Crows and a very bad feeling

[shy-blade.livejournal.com]

[Victor landed on Edward's shoulder and pecked the side of his face softly.]

Hey, are you gonna talk? You've been quiet for over a month. What gives?

[Edward looks up from the floor and at the crow.]

I'm sorry.

[Victor sighs.]

Listen, I know what you're thinking. I'm part of you, remember that so what you feel, I feel too but you gotta stop acting like you're the only suffering jackass out there. Have you heard this shit going on?

[Edward shakes his head slowly.]

No.

Get it together, man. People think all the time but man, you're taking it to the extreme. There's pussy to be had and you're just sitting there. I mean look at you! You're a bad ass in the making and you're...well...a dork in wolf's clothing.

[Edward's eyes slightly widen then narrow.]

I'm not a wolf.

[The crow hops off his shoulder and scoffs.]

No, of course not. You're a moron. A dork. A wannabe. Get over it already. Nobody's gonna give a fuck so what's the point in hiding?

[Edward stands up and looks out the window.]

I'm not hiding.

Good to see you Edward, I was wondering what happened to you man. Specially with the weird shit that's been going on the past few days.

[shy-blade.livejournal.com]

I'm okay.

No, you're not. You need to get out more. You're like...Quasi Modo. You have a nice singing voice and you don't show off. You can't get laid like this.

[Edward ignores Victor.]

How are you? Did the weird get you too?

[kingroadie.livejournal.com]

[Eddie's doing about the same, sorry Victor, but you are being ignored.] I'm glad to hear that, everything is kind of crazy right now.

I'm okay, not soulless, just trying to keep tabs on everyone.

[shy-blade.livejournal.com]

Hey! What gives?! I'm right here, fucktards!

[Edward lifts his blades and shuts up Victor nearly instantly with a gulp.]

Has anyone lost their soul? Is everyone okay?

[kingroadie.livejournal.com]

Two people as of now lost their daemons, Kio and Miria. [He frowns at that, still set in SERIOUS BUSINESS mode.]

I'm trying to find out about everyone else. I'm taking a quick head count and walking around the manor to see if everyone else is alright.

[shy-blade.livejournal.com]

Okay. I'll help.

[He moves toward his door and opens it, walking out without taking his blackberry with him.]

Hey, moron! You forgot something.

[Edward was already around the corner and in the hall.]

[kingroadie.livejournal.com]

[Eddie just shakes his head some at Edwards naive behavior, though it warrants a brief flicker of a smile from the roadie.]

Yo, crow, see if you can fly the communicator to him.

If you could please do that. [Anvil cuts in attempting some vague form of politeness even if Victor isn't inclined to show any manners, she is.]

[shy-blade.livejournal.com]

[Victor grips the Blackberry with his talons and flies off after Edward.]

Yo! Anvil made a suggestion. Pay attention!

[Edward stops and turns around, eying the device.]

Yes?

[Victor sighs and drops the device in Edward's hand.]

We can't split up, doofus.

[Edward nods.]

I know. I knew you would come.

[Victor blinks.]

How?

Because we're one of the same.
