Teru Mikami ~21~ Reversal [Accidental Video -> Voice / In Person]

[inordertobelieve]

[This boy looks a lot like the local prosecutor. Just that he is fifteen and... crying. Nobody here has ever seen Mikami cry before. It's not so much crying as just tears running down his face. There is no sound like a sob though, as he looks up and around, recognizing that this isn't his mother's funeral anymore. He stares in shock, his eyes widen and then he takes his glasses up and wipes away the tears.
Another moment passes and then he notices the Blackberry and the fact that it's recording. Quickly he works his way through the buttons, changing to voice]

E-excuse me? Is this... can anybody here me? Where am I?

lol Well his name Rokudo is old Japanese for 69 XD

[He nodded. He didn't get a name. Unlike some of the other children he never had gotten to see the outside world. All he ever knew was the laboratory. Until today anyway.

He walked back over the where Mikami was... next to the couch... or as Mukuro saw it- the strange colored box thing.]

I see...

[Mikami sighs, trying not to imagine what 69's life was like. Luckily enough he didn't have a good imagination... But he pictured it to be just so much worse than his own...]

Have a seat... Then I can see what I can do against the pain..

[It probably wouldn't be too much though...]

[Mukuro nodded and climbed up on the box-thing... but was so caught by surprise when the cushioning gave beneath his hands and he fell forward, landing face-first into the cushions. He paused for a moment and pulled back looking absolutely STUNNED.

What, what, what was this?! The boxes... squished. They just...SQUISHED.

This was officially the most delightful invention he has ever encountered.

So don't mind him as he just keeps bouncing on this delightful squishy box thing!]

[It was almost a bit sad to watch this... This boy didn't even know such simple things. Teru wondered what he should do with him. He definitely couldn't leave him alone in a world he didn't know. But as long as he didn't know a way out of this place, he supposed he had to take care of this child.
Teru watched him for another moment before speaking again]

I'm going to get you a glass of water so that you can take the painkillers easier. Is it alright if you just wait here for a moment? I won't take long.

[pineapple_fairy]

[Mukuro quickly looked up when Teru told him to wait there. He didn't want to get left behind! What if the men in the white coats came for him? What if he didn't come back? But at the same time... he was told to wait. It had never crossed his mind to disobey a command... so he would wait... but he was scared.

He crawled to the edge of the couch, closest to Mikami and looked at him worriedly. His cheeks flushed from being so upset, and his good eye welling up, and his eye socket even began getting moist.]

T-Teru...?

[takesallbullets.livejournal.com]

[Teru froze in movement the moment he heard his name being spoken. If there was anything he'd gathered from their interactions so far it was that 69 didn't speak. And now there was his name, in such a scared little voice.
Teru swallowed, looking at the boy's face... He couldn't leave someone this fragile alone, not like this.]

If you don't want me to leave, then let's start on the other things... I'm not sure how much I can do though.

[He takes the first aid kit and sits down next to Mukuro, worriedly looking him over]

[pineapple_fairy]

[Mukuro smiles a little bit and nods his head, clearly relieved by the news. He wipes his good eye, and tries to dab away the moisture from the eye socket. The salt from the tears was stinging it. So some tear wiping and a few sniffles later Mukuro just inexplicably flopped his head on Mikami's lap. He didn't understand any rules of personal space at all. The children were always very close to each other... he didn't often indulge in the affections of others, they often died anyway, so whay get close? ... but sometimes... if just felt okay. Like now. Teru was special. He wasn't like the other children! He came from outside the lab!

Needless to say, whatever Teru wanted to do, he could just do it like this.

It was strange...but strange in a nice way to see that his voice had actually accomplished something. He got Teru to stay. It wasn't like all the screaming and yelling and pleading that happened in the labs. His voice made a difference.]

[Teru stared down at him, completely at a loss with what to do. To him, any sort of physical closeness just felt odd. Positive physical closeness that was... He was more than used to being punched, scratched, kicked, pushed on the ground and occasionally even bad-touched for the sake of humiliation him.
But since his mother's death a few days ago he hadn't had any sort of physical contact with anybody until he came her.
Now he stared down at Mukuro. A living, breathing person who needed him right now. He bit his lip for a moment.
Safety... Even if this wasn't correct, even if there should be an office for this, right now he was here and he could offer it.
For a moment he smiled faintly.

And then he decided that for the moment, this moment only, it was alright to leave 69 where he was. He looked through the first aid kid for some bandages and ointment, wondering what the proper way of bandaging something like this would even be]
