I still haven't seen him. Sou-chan...don't freak out but...Rit-chan might not be here.

[A long pause. Then a text reply answers.]

He has to be.

Re: [Text]

[want-a-chupa.livejournal.com]

Why does he have to be?!

[Kio's been exploring and he doesn't like the look of it. It reminds him waaaay too much of Shikiko's compound]

Re: [Text]

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

Because he fell asleep with me at the school. I would know if they moved him.

[want-a-chupa.livejournal.com]

Wait...the school? D-did you go back to Goura?

[Kio looks a little apprehensive]

Re: [Video]

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

[He raises an eyebrow at him. Memory-loss? Again?]

Yes, Kio. You were with us. You were trying to give Ritsuka chupas most of the way there.

[want-a-chupa.livejournal.com]

Sou-chan that was a week and a half ago.

[He gives Soubi a worried look]

Don't you remember?

Re: [Video]

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

[He frowns.]

No, I don't. I went to sleep around 3 o'clock in the morning, just last night. I couldn't have been sleeping longer than a few hours.

Re: [Video]

[want-a-chupa.livejournal.com]

But Sou-chan...it's...I don't know what's wrong with you. You saved me, we came home, you don't remember?

Re: [Video]

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

[He shakes his head, frowning.]

Why would I save you from an onsen?

Re: [Video]

[want-a-chupa.livejournal.com]

[Getting worked up]

No!! You saved me from those crazy psychos who kidnapped me! That guy with the long hair and the one who stole my glasses with "Bloodless" scarification on his cheek and the other guy, the quiet guy.

[Kio shivers. There's something a little distant and a lot worrisome about his expression]

It happened, Soubi! I know it happened!

Re: [Video]

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

[He pauses for several moments, looking Kio over.]

Maybe the people at the Academy did something to your memory...

Re: [Video]

[want-a-chupa.livejournal.com]

[Kio stares at him, a smile quirking at the corners of his mouth]

My memory....

[Something like a laugh]

Soubi tell me this is a joke. It's a joke, right?! Right?! You took me back to your apartment and you saved me from them. It happened! It happened! I know it happened!

[There is horrible desperation in his voice]

SOUBI I KNOW WHAT HAPPENED!

[Hmm, the device in his pocket seems to have turned itself on. He pulls out and looks at the message on the screen, and the fact that he can somehow reply. The letters come slowly and sloppily.]

Hhellop. Hello.

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

[He stares at the blackberry for a moment. There's no way that this is Ritsuka.]

There should be a red button on the lower right of the keyboard of your communicator. If you press it, we will be able to see each other.

[Text/Video!]

[demon_andbutler]

[Is there? That's quite the device if it's true. He finds the button, and sure enough, now Soubi can see the face of a man who once sucked your blood in your youth with dark hair and red eyes, looking rather British. And sounding it, too.]

Hello, sir. Thank you for explaining. These devices are new to me. Are you looking for someone?

Re: [Text/Video!]

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

[He looks the butler over coolly.]

A boy. He still has his ears.

Re: [Text/Video!]

[demon_andbutler]

[The cool look is returned!]

I've not seen any earless boys about, no.

Re: [Text/Video!]

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

I said that he does have his ears. Have you seen him, or not?

Re: [Text/Video!]

[demon_andbutler]

A boy with ears. I have seen several. [No women, in fact, which is interesting.] And an old man, also with ears. Sir.

Re: [Text/Video!]

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

[He gazes at him for several moments.]

Black hair, purple eyes, about 4 feet, 7 inches.

Re: [Text/Video!]

[demon_andbutler]

I have seen no one by that description. [Head tilt.] Is he a relative?

Re: [Text/Video!]

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

[Soubi gives an exasperated sigh.]

No. But he is... under my care. If you see someone of that description, please use this communicator to inform me.

Re: [Text/Video!]

[demon_andbutler]

Ah. I see. I shall, sir, if I see him. May I ask your name, so that I'll be able to find you?

Re: [Text/Video!]

[pinnd-buttrfly.livejournal.com]

[His eyes are narrowed; he really doesn't like this use of "sir". Much too sycophantic.]

Agatsuma. And yours?
