Ah, hello. This is Japan. Forgive me for being unable to answer the phone at this moment. Please leave a message and I will respond in a timely fashion.

(ooc: Anyone needing to contact Japan in his games can assume this post acts like a call to his communicator/whatever! Just add the date at the top. ♥)

[SINCE LJ WAS BEING LAME, I logged this over AIM.

So for my own reference and thread tracking I'll post it here.]

The train was exhilarating, Marco had never seen something that could move that fast before. Even in battle he wasn't sure he could hold that pace for any decent length of time. It bowled down everything in its path, so strong. He wondered idly if the Sea Train went that fast, and if so, maybe he'd have to try it sometime. As he climbed down though, he glanced around and immediately caught sight of a short man in dark black hair. He'd been kidding about it for ages, with Ace, Japan, and Kaitou, but damn it, maybe that really was his type ( ... )

He eventually broke his straight face for a small chuckle. "I am glad to see Marco, as well." That was spoken in an uncharacteristically soft voice, and he moved a hand to pat the phoenix on the head before glancing somewhere else. Back to his normal tone now. "Will we leave tomorrow, then? Surely you are tired ( ... )

"I'd prefer to leave tonight, especially if you're okay with it," that seemed a good start. Then he made the almost mistake of stepping closer. He wrapped an arm around Japan's shoulders and tugged him close to whisper alluringly in the man's ears. "Seems I have a hundred things to tell you," he admitted softly and didn't let go. "To share." He ruffled Japan's black hair. "And don't think I've forgotten about showing you all things an old man can do. Or you showing me those pins you're so proud of, eh?" Smirking softly, Marco pulled back to go raid Japan's supplies and help pack. Somehow teasing like that made up for the honesty that went with it in Marco's book ( ... )

He couldn't say he wasn't expecting that, because he was, but he wasn't exactly expecting that now of all times. So a shocked look spread across his face quickly, and he nearly yelped, instead gritting his teeth with a quiet "Ngh--!" That was shortly followed by a huff of a sigh as he gave a poke or two at Marco with a free hand. "Hahhh, if I was not before, I am certainly awake now..." Japan then paused at the flexibility comment, embarrassed. How could anyone say these things so bluntly in person! Joking or not... "...Resilient, is it... Ah, Marco is so bold, saying these things ( ... )

Marco laughed quietly and his own heart skipped a beat. It was just as well that Japan was hiding his face since Marco was savoring this expression as well. He resisted the urge to do siomething even more impetuous and simply grinned. "I'll leave you to figure it out when I put it into action then, eh?" the pirate answered, trying to be as smooth as possible as he finally set Japan down at the train. "Can't say I didn't warn you though ( ... )

He sideglanced thoughtfully. "Hattori-san attempted to follow us and was hurt." Also, while speaking (and still looking off to the side), he leaned against Marco a little, as well. Totally subtle. "He was quite determined to stop us... He may try again." There's a small, worried sort of frown, and he casually adds, "If so, I may have to knock him out ( ... )

The tiny wall Marco was keeping in order to prevent him from getting even more affectionate on Japan broke just like that and he hugged him tightly, and leaned his forehead against Japan's. "You've got me now," he promised. He didn't think punching America would solve anything -- it'd be like punching Garp and far more painful for the idiot who tried to dent the man than vice versa. However, it wasn't in Marco to not remind his friends he'd do whatever he could to protect them. "Politics... I'm no good at," he admitted and rested a hand against Japan's face where the acid had been. "But you are stronger, and I'll be here for you, eh?" He dropped the hand and leaned against Japan a little more. "Also, China is kind of a pain. Now him I might believe the old man act with. Might ( ... )

For a moment, Japan is unusually silent, his only reaction from there being a slight raise of his head to that hand at his chin. His eyes still held a searching look, and his face was still red, but he eventually frowned. "Ah... Do all pirates joke in such cruel ways?" A question. A joke... was this just joking? He couldn't tell. And there were other things to consider. His reactions were just this frozen hesitance now ( ... )

Marco shifted, this time pressing in, and nudged Japan back against the wall, curious to see how he'd react when backed into a corner. "I think if you were going to tell me to stop, you would have already." He used his free hand to tilt Japan's chin up again and surveyed the blush. "And the fear just makes it exciting, doesn't it?" What did he think? He had a thousand thoughts about it, each more interesting than the last. "I'm not so easily dismissed," Marco leered and glanced Japan over. "Pirate and all that ( ... )

"Of course it's different," Marco shot a sidelong glance at Japan. "But the Captain of Spero has his orders, eh? Who am I to refute." For now Marco was going to push the topic of threesomes into some far-off corner of his brain. Baby steps or something ( ... )

Marco watched Japan's reactions to the part about Seifer and filed it away. "Maybe the women remind him of Ultimecia," he shrugged and nodded about Eridan. "Ah, yes, of course. You know I always forget the fourth one. Auspistice? And I suppose Ace really wouldn't fit any of the other categories for Lightning... ever." Althought it was kind of funny to figure Ace as Marco's moirail, and vice versa. Though in that case, they were probably bad at it ( ... )

"Ah...confusing," Marco answered with a puzzled frown. So Ace was still "Ace-kun" and yet somewhere along the line Marco had lost the suffix to his name. And according to Sakura, that meant something. "Though he's not the only one, eh?" Marco hinted towards Japan himself. "He's either... trying to keep a distance to protect me, himself, or just because he really does want it that way. I don't know which it is, but I can't say it's wrong either." Even if it was just to protect Marco himself, being in love with a dead man was nothing short of tricky. Living in the moment was fine and well, but there would still be no future in it ( ... )

"But not for free," Marco reasoned, simply because Cube's other side didn't do anything for free. "How did you even find out about them? You really wanted them??" It was a strange feeling. Somehow, nice that someone else would want to indulge in the same ridiculousness that Marco did, rather than the annoyed "what the hell are you doing?" look that Ace would give him if he found out ( ... )

"Mm-hm," Marco pulled back with a smirk and watched the dark-haired man. "I thought I must have given it away a couple of times -- like that kiss on the rooftop." Despite the words and some of the seeming danger of the situation, Marco felt cool and confident about the whole thing. It was his domain somehow, and easy to relax around Japan. He didn't ever worry about doing or saying the wrong thing with him. Perhaps because he always knew with Japan it'd be okay. A learning experience one way or another ( ... )

Japan smiled, though it looked almost sad. He had returned home before. He remembered nothing. All of the "but"s and "what if"s were clouding his mind, though, and he shook his head. What Marco was saying meant a lot. That was all that he had to worry about right now. He leaned forward a little, bringing a hand up to straighten his bangs slowly. Still smiling, he glanced back at his friend. "Marco is too kind ( ... )
