"York here. I'm probably busy getting my ass handed to me by adorable woodland creatures, but I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Over and out."

He was. He tried to do the right thing. He was... wrong, but right. It's... complicated.

[He's quiet for a few long moments.]

I think... better. He shut up when I was talking. I think... maybe you should talk now, though.

I...

[The way he's talking about her... it's how people are supposed to talk about the people they like, isn't it? It's nice, and it's gentle, and it's free of the possessiveness he'd ever had when talking about Mai. He ignores the phantom for the moment, just listening to the words, and...]

I haven't met her, no. I guess... the person I did this for... all of what I did... I wanted her to follow me. The way you talk about the person you love... it's different. I wish I'd been able to have that kind of relationship, instead of...

[There's a quiet sniff, and he clears his throat.]

... Are you... happy with her? You don't... I mean, I guess you don't have to answer that, relationships are complicated...

... I'm sorry, York-san.

[He's quiet for a few moments, shaking his head even though York can't see.]

The last time I saw Mai... the last time I saw her alive, at least... was when I left her with Sengoku and went off to kill Kouta. When I got back... he'd operated on her, taken the Forbidden Fruit out, and she was dead. She appeared to me, but she'd... changed. She wasn't human anymore.

All because I was too stupid to think that he wouldn't hurt her to get what he wanted.
grapeeater: (the temperance.)

Yeah.

[He's quiet for a few breaths, a soft 'Vul?' from his side of the line.]

I think... maybe I can sleep now. Or try to, at least. ... Thank you, York-san.
