[ our midsommar era is hopefully over, and todomatsu is back by the pyre in his pink hoodie and rolled up jeans like god intended, taking pictures of the profiles with his phone.
looks at tomi... looks at his profile... looks back... ]
All right, let's get the bad first impression over with.
[ todomatsu's probably not actively looking for tomi, but when he sees him, he's just like. ah. he should be polite and say something.
he also looks pretty sad right now. and, like. still kind of undead, as he has since post-cyoa yesterday. his skin's still super pale and greyish, and ones of his hands is bandaged, kind of looks like shit, but this isn't about him. ]
[ i'm so glad it's not also thoughtshare because he would have spent the first four minutes of that just being jealous that tomi could actually get girls.
once it gets to the stuff about being framed and coming home to find her gone, though, it actually hits him kind of hard — which is a lot harder than it would have a week ago.
plus, damn... seeing memories of ichiban like this must be pretty painful right now. ]
...Sorry. I know it's rude to listen in on a personal conversation like that.
[ not that it's his fault, obviously, and he doesn't think it is, but still. ]
[ clearly, totty needs to get drunk and just not care.
but, ha, funny that this past tomi - which wasn't even that that long ago - mentions that raw grief. naturally, there hasn't been enough time to even begin to deal with what happened over the weekend. and now to have it shoved in his face like this? yeah he's feeling pretty shit. ]
Not like you chose to, man. Just... this sucks. Like this place is laughing at me.

This is probably one of the worst situations to be in and have a sense of humor about.
no subject
Okay, but those two things aren't intrinsically linked, you know? People in bad situations use humor to cope all the time.

he's not outwardly emotional in the sense that he doesn't look like he's gonna cry, but the news has clearly hit him hard. ]

Honestly, yeah, right when they took the beach away again too...
I wouldn't be that surprised if they were planning to try to target each of us individually.
