Radio Memory

The clatter of geta on wooden floors and Daitou's voice. It sounds like he's talking to himself.]

"Yes! I want some too!"

[The footsteps stop abruptly, and Rain's voice comes in among a burst of static]

"Where are you going?"

"Um, you know, [static] healthy food doesn't taste so good..."
[There's a pause while someone - most likely Daitou - coughs, somewhat wetly. He sounds a little breathless when he speaks again]
"So every once in a while... I want to eat sweet stuff..."

[Rain is having none of this, and that much is clear even with voice alone.]

"Then I'll bring something to your room. You shouldn't be out in the cold air until your fever goes down a little. And your throat doesn't sound good, either."

[Dai, clearly dejected-] "Oh... Well I want to eat, but... How can I say this..." [He sighs softly and then continues.] "...Look. Everyone's over there... It's been so long... I want to be with everyone... You know?"

[There's a long pause as Rain considers this, then the sudden clatter of geta again and Daitou's triumphant cry.]

"Now's my chance!!"
"Running is bad for your health!"
"I'm fine!!"

Apple?

[He doesn't sound surprised. More just...thoughtful. And maybe a little worried. He's heard enough of the other memories to know everyone heard this one too.]

Sweet food is really tasty but healthy food is better. Especially if you're sick.

It's a good thing I'm not sick then, ne?

[Here's to hoping chibis can't hear that slightly false cheer. Even chibis who saw him cough up his own blood >_>]

I guess so.

[Hm. Okay...]

Daitou.

[A pause - he's thinking of questions that he doesn't mind everyone else hearing. It's hard. There aren't many.]

...Was that yours or mine?

[pause]

Is there any way to tell for sure?

[identity profile] notpissedoff.livejournal.com 2011-01-26 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose it makes little difference.

[Long pause, and then spoken softly, as if testing the sound of the words to himself:]

We were friends. [Because why else would he have cared that much? It's not like he was his doctor, or anything...]

[identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com 2011-01-26 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
[...]

Would you rather talk in person?

[That wet sounding sort of cough... well, that doesn't evoke anything pleasant in Sniper's mind.]

That cough didn't sound too good, Daitou.

[identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com 2011-01-26 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
[This situation calls for boldfaced lies!]

I guess I must have had a cold or something.

[identity profile] longnosedliar.livejournal.com 2011-01-26 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
That wasn't a cold sort of cough.

[identity profile] pinkmoonrabbit.livejournal.com 2011-01-26 07:49 am (UTC)(link)
Are you alright, Dai-chan?

[identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com 2011-01-26 08:02 am (UTC)(link)
Mm, I'm fine! I must've had a cold or something in that memory.

[identity profile] pinkmoonrabbit.livejournal.com 2011-01-26 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
You sounded pretty sick! I'm glad it was just a memory and you aren't sick right now.

[identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com 2011-01-26 06:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm glad too!

[And extra glad that's only half a lie]

[identity profile] dragonking.livejournal.com 2011-01-26 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Risking your health for food, hmm?

[identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com 2011-01-26 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Well...it was probably really good food?

[identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com 2011-01-26 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
I can't see myself going for food that wasn't good. Unless the company was very good too.

[She's noting that cough down because she is very very nosy, but.]

Sweets, huh? There are worse things you could go all out for.

[identity profile] poisondango.livejournal.com 2011-01-27 05:13 am (UTC)(link)
And all this stuff about healthy food being good for you... the least they could do is make it taste good.

[identity profile] coughcoughshank.livejournal.com 2011-01-27 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly!
