[Text] ☠ The voice someone calls.

[nightprince]

[ ... Unlike his usual peppy self, Ryoji's post to the network is short and private client messages are left to several people. All of them are in plain black text, however. You can tell something is up, he's bothering to use apostrophes and such. ]

[ FILTERED FROM IZAYA ; UNHACKABLE ]

... I'm sorry, everyone. If I'm not around this week, something important happened. I'll be at the Volo dorms if you really need to get in contact with me.

- Ryoji

[ FILTERED TO AIGIS ; UNHACKABLE ]

[ ... His typing drops here considerably when he messages Aigis and Vriska, as though he is upset. ]

Can we talk???????? im downstairs.

[ FILTERED TO VRISKA ; UNHACKABLE ]

[ ... This is hard on him. But he trusts Vriska, so he will get her opinion too. ]

[ ... He looks down. He's trying so hard not to break down right now. He can't. ]

I... I told myself... if Minato didn't hate him... I wouldn't either, but when I saw the message he left...

[ He was so filled with rage. Feelings he didn't... even know were his, really.

What kind of monster was he, anyway, to say the things that he said? ]

[tsundyne]

[ ...oh. She...she supposes there was a reason then, that she decided she would not use her SFC for a few days. She's afraid the temptation to say something--to start something, anything, would be too much--

And she's not particularly feeling social anyway. ]

...I didn't see it.

[ ... He's quiet for a long moment. ]

... Be glad you didn't.

[ He looks away, a small, wry smile forming on his face. ]

It was awful. He said he had "learned" that playing with boys was a waste of his time... like he was just some toy... it still makes me angry.

[ He looks down, fists clenched, but his strained smile is still there. ]

I... I want to do what's right... but I don't know if I can, if I'm such an... inhuman monster to guys like this one.

[ ... The things he had said were horrific. ]

[ ....she is. She is glad, though it's because of Minato that she was able to show even that much self-restraint, so she supposes she can't take the credit for that. She simply lets out a breath, listening to him speak, her fists tightening--

She would've loved to borrow Akihiko-senpai's punching bag right about then, but she settles for beating on her knees instead. The frustration had to come out somehow.

Minato.....as some...toy... ]

[tsundyne]

...yeah. Well. Some guys deserve to be treated like that. [ Izaya is definitely one of them. ] And the fact that you spoke with him...the fact that you spoke with him, and he's still alive, in one piece...

Well. I think it probably says more about you as a human being than you think.

[ ....that was meant as a compliment...she thinks. Though she's not entirely sure how it came out anymore. Her thoughts seem fleeting and unfocused right now. ]

... Hey, Yukari-chan?

[ He's quiet for a moment. ]

That... means a lot to me. We'll just have to try harder from now on to help him... right?

[tsundyne]

[ ...she nods, quietly. Hearing his words is kind of a relief, since...it seems like she's helping him. If only a little. And this is helping her too. ]

I promised...that I would. And to take care of myself, too.

[ For her own sake, but for his as well. ]

You...you should do the same. I-I don't think...he'd want to lose either of us...
