But... To be honest, when Joonghyuk sees Dimitri wherever he is, he tries to leave, but the stardust already lands and encapsulates them in a memory. ]
[ sorry niah, he is disassociating into a memory. when he emerges, something flutters in his throat. he has felt similarly in his own life, but he is just a boy in comparison—how could someone do this for what stretches into an eternity? he struggles for words, then speaks quietly. ]
...I do not think I would have lasted so many lifetimes.
[ 1864 lives. though he supposes it isn't all hopeless. ]
That man... [ kim dokja. ] What a shining existence.
... When death still means living, it's not much of a choice.
[ You have to last, though your mind and heart can deteriorate into nothing.
Help... Hearing the rest makes him grimace cause they really are talking about Kim Dokja. Niah whines some, as if he recognizes the memory (he does not). ]
[ Joonghyuk is still at the beach in the station, having lingered hours after while keeping the bonfire going. He's throwing pieces of paper into it, like during the event.
Niah noticed Dimitri, though, and comes to greet him. ]
[ He was going to respond, but then Dimitri goes to run around a little with Niah on the sand. Niah follows after with little jumps, seemingly happy to go to the beach.
[ sweet niah. he's so wrapped up in his thoughts that he doesn't notice niah until he's right there, and he does consider making himself sparse, but after a second he just pets niah's head and waits for joonghyuk to inevitably show up. ]
[ sorry i have to force yjh to visit him because he's stuck in this employee lounge. he looks pretty troubled, which only gets worse when joonghyuk arrives. ]
...It was better that I did not have time to deflect the accusations, honestly.
PRE-W0: SUNDAY.
Niah, who is a black wolf daemon now medium dog sized, pads over to Dimitri to give him a cautionary sniff. ]
You.
no subject
You.
[ he extends a friendly hand to the dog, though, for easier sniffs. speaking to niah directly, ]
Hello...
no subject
[ Not to be polite, but because he won't accept being rudely called you.
Niah sniffs fingers, then noses his hand some. You are new. ]
Don't bite him.
[ He's talking to Dimitri, not Niah. ]

W0 : SUNDAY
Joonghyuk is close behind, wearing a tracksuit with a neon green and black jacket and jogging. He comes to a stop because his daemon did. ]
Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd.
[ How is the boy doing. ]
no subject
Just Dimitri is all right, you know.
no subject
[ despite I desperately wish he did but no at least I had practice with Dimitri’s name.
Niah allows Dimitri to pet his head. He can sense the weariness, so the wolf lets out a small whine. ]
Was it satisfying?

If you are still lingering about here, you must have a lot that you're trying to get off your shoulders.
