Thirty-First Flare - Video - Lunar Eclipse
Sep. 6th, 2011 11:38 am[Anyone familiar with Lea knows that being surrounded by animals has started to become an extremely common thing lately. Whether its any of his seventeen chocobos or Arden the Eevee, he's like a walking zoo.
But when the feed accidentally flickers on today, he's by himself. This wouldn't be of any particular interest, except of where he is. He's not in Stein's house, or in the park, or anywhere he normally would make a broadcast in. The SFC has clearly been shoved into a corner and is positioned so that the screen is tilted a bit sideways. The room is very large, obviously meant to be a dining area of some sort, only without tables. Without anything, really. It's just a room with a very detailed carpet and walls painted so that it shifts from pale yellow to bright red the closer they are to the kitchen.
Lea's back is to the SFC, mostly, and he sits cross-legged in the middle of the big empty space. On one side of him is a thick book. In his hands can be seen a few papers.
After a moment or two, Lea turns his head just a tad to the side and realizes the SFC is on. He doesn't change his position, however.]
...Isa's gone. One of my boyfriends- my matesprit. [His voice catches.] My best friend.
[It really doesn't get easier. Losing people.]
Guess I'll, uh, wait five days. See what happens. Until then...
[Another lapse into silence.]
I'm going to be opening a restaurant, Vatheon. Phoenix's Nest. I can't run it by myself. If there's anyone who needs a job, or something to do, then you can talk to me and I'll help you out. I'll need servers, people to help clean up... Hell, you can make up your own job, and we'll see if we can't work somethin' out.
Name's Lea, if we haven't met before.
[He finally gets up onto his feet and walks towards the SFC while rubbing at his eyes with the heel of his palm. Kneeling down, he reaches over and...
CLICK! No public feed for you.]
[Private to Demyx, Equius, Takeru, Minato, Red, N, Eridan, Lily, Sephiroth, Tavros, Feferi, Xion, Axel, both Zacks, Ezio, Vietnam, Luka, Kurt, Gamzee, Riku Rep, Ven, Jim, Karkat, and Jacob.]
I know for some of you, we really haven't had a chance to hang out a lot. Some of you are probably sick of me getting up in your business all the time.
But I wanna hang out with you sometime today. Even with the weird hat crap goin' on. 'Cuz I think of all of you as friends of mine, even if we've only met up a couple of times.
You're all really important to me, okay?
Remember that.
[Private to just Demyx]
Love you.
[And yeah, his gaze is getting pretty watery by this point.]

Date: 2011-09-06 04:10 pm (UTC)[The thought is extremely unsettling, to say the least.
Where did they go? Did they just return home or was there some kind of purpose to them being taken away like this? Questions to ponder over later, but for now, he locks the feed to be able to talk to his friend privately.]
I'd be happy to. Just tell me when an' where?
[Because Lea right now needs a friend. He can offer that much.]

Date: 2011-09-06 04:15 pm (UTC)They don't vanish- wait, no, they totally do, but it's... Sometimes it's a good thing. People, uh, they go back home. Vatheon gets forgotten, somehow, and, y'know.
Life moves on. I guess.
[He doesn't mention that for him and Isa, going home is a bad thing.]
I... just wanna do somethin' fun. You're feeling better, right?

[He's going to slip back into emotional mess territory in a second if he doesn't stop himself, so Lea quickly shakes his head and tries to get back to the subject at hand.]
Have you ever gone Chocobo riding? They really like racing around and stuff, and they don't mind passengers.

Shit. For what it's worth, I hope he comes back soon for you, but I know it has to hurt like hell even still. I've been there before, so...
[He makes an almost sad-sounding little meow, which he follows up immediately with a noise of self-directed frustration.]
--Just, if you need to talk or want to hang out or whatever, I'm here. I know it helps to have someone around, even just a friend.
And about your restaurant, if I don't have to deal with the people directly much, I could work there, if you want. I had a job at this place Slick opened up, but then he decided to be a dick and fired everyone on a whim. Fuck that.
[VIDEO, filtered]
Date: 2011-09-07 11:46 pm (UTC)That'd be great, yeah. I mean, if the hat thing isn't bugging you or whatever.
...I mean, that's why you made the... cat noise, right?
...I'm pretty sure Nepeta was the one who liked making cat noises, but if that's your thing too...
