001 [Action/Video]

[There's some irritated grumbling going on. Shuffle. Grumble. Shifting through leaves. Grumble. KICKING A TREE-]

Ow!

[... Grumble.

And now HI LUCETI, YOU'RE NOW SEEING THE BOTTOM OF SOMEONE'S FOOT. But it lifts up quickly, and in its place is a teenaged boy with short, scraggly red hair and green eyes staring curiously down at the journal. Aaand then it morphs an annoyed face.]

Man, this isn't even my journal... And where the hell did my shirt go?

[The person disappears and gives yet another grumble as he searches through some leaves... Then seems to resolve to find his way to the village, as his footsteps start to grow fainter and fainter. He may not know it, but he's going in the completely wrong direction of where he's supposed to go.]

Like a river?

[Hmmm. HMMMM.]

... Sort of, yeah. It sounds far away.

Try to make your way over to it, and let me know what direction it's flowing in.

[... Wh-What Guy, you're asking him to do this on his own-NO HE'S NOT THAT PATHETIC. Just almost.]

O-Okay... [HE CAN DO THIS. WALK WALK WALK.]

I've got shoes for you by the way. You probably need them, huh?

[Okay so now Luke realizes that talking to Guy keeps him calm, so he'll just converse with him.]

Yeah. I keep stepping on stupid ro-ow! ... stupid rocks!

[Just as planned.

Guy will pace at the treeline; he needs to catch his breath anyway, since he dashed all the way there.]

Be careful, don't cut your foot open.

I'm not going to- [FFF ROOT. Clearly, Luke isn't used to tromping around barefoot in a dense forest. With boots, yes, but barefoot?] -cut my foot open!

... My back hurts, too. ~~[SO GET OVER HERE AND MASSAGE IT]~~

I'll get you back to the house I'm staying in and you can take a hot bath. You'll feel better.

Find the river yet? [Guy's antsy to get moving again, but he doesn't want to run off without at least a decent idea of direction.]

I'm almost-UNGH!

[BRB HEADACHE]

Luke-!

[That looks so familiar...]

Luke, what is it? Is it Asch?

[Luke grits his teeth, trying to concentrate between talking to Asch and Guy at the same time. And through a head full of ringing pain at that.]

Y-Yeah, he's-if he's south- told me- y- Go north, I'm above the village!

[SCOWL. Guy snaps, though it's not at Luke.]

Asch, I know you're listening. Knock it off.

[He barely heard Guy over the ringing, but Asch did, and it makes him cut off the link rather violently. Luke gives sharp groan of pain, but looks up right after.]

Asch?!

[Sigh. C'mon Guy, smile; there you go.]

You okay Luke? You said you're above the village?

[DEJECTED FACE. But now he's focused on walking to the river again.]

I... guess I am. [Do you hear that, Guy? It's the RIVER.] And there's the river! It's going... [... Which way IS it going, Luke can't exactly tell which way is which, so he waves his hand in the direction it's flowing in.] that way.

Head downstream. I'm coming your way. [Running at breakneck speeds, more like it.]

All right. I'll meet you halfway. [AND LUKE IS... walking fast. Ish. He's still stepping on stupid rocks and twigs, but getting cut off from Asch, especially when there was no one else near him, made him feel incredibly alone and insecure. Always trust Guy to come to the rescue, though.]

[Except it was totally Guy's fault that Asch stormed off. Oh well.

It takes a while, but once Guy spots Luke he quite possible runs even faster and plows right into him, wrapping him up in a hug.]

[Oh hey there's Guy-WHUMPF. Luke lets out an "Oof!" from the force of it - in fact he got tackled right off his feet. And-OW HIS BACK-Luke lets out a hiss from that. Doesn't hurt as much as Asch's fonic link did, but... wtf, did he land on MORE roots or something? But once the pain edges away... There is a Guy on top of him and hugging him really tight.]

Uh... [Guy's letter didn't sound like he missed him that badly, did it? He'll just. Slowly return the hug. He kind of missed him, too... Okay, he really missed him, so have a real hug.]

[Guy figures he can only get away with this for a little while, so once it grows uncomfortable he backs off, sitting back on his heels and just holding Luke out at arm's length, smiling. He at least has the decency to look a little sheepish about tackling Luke to the ground.

Sure, it maybe wasn't the return he was expecting back home, but...it would do.]

Sorry about that. But uh...you look like you're okay. That's good.

[Luke rolls his shoulders - jeez, his back hurts, especially after that. But he gives a sheepish smile of his own. He did miss Guy, and while he wasn't quite expecting a tackle hug, it did reassure him that Guy really missed him, too. And that... kind of feels nice.]

Yup. Didn't cut my foot open or anything, see? [TOE WIGGLES.]

Good job.

[Guy hesitates, then awkwardly scratches the back of his head.] You um...what's the last thing you remember, Luke?

Huh? [That came out of nowhere. But he'll answer it.] ... I was on the ferry going towards Daath. I just finished reading the letters you guys sent me. [GRIN] Walking rappigs, huh Guy?

[Erk. Let's distract Luke with some freakish news, huh?]

Luke, I guess you haven't noticed yet, but... [And he reaches over Luke's shoulder to touch one of his wings.]
