Radio Memory

[coughcoughshank]

The clatter of geta on wooden floors and Daitou's voice. It sounds like he's talking to himself.]

"Yes! I want some too!"

[The footsteps stop abruptly, and Rain's voice comes in among a burst of static]

"Where are you going?"

"Um, you know, [static] healthy food doesn't taste so good..."
[There's a pause while someone - most likely Daitou -

Comments

[crowsloveapples]

Ah...Daitou?

[ohhhh someone is in deeeeep shiiiiitt]

[coughcoughshank]

Apple?

[He doesn't sound surprised. More just...thoughtful. And maybe a little worried. He's heard enough of the other memories to know everyone heard this one too.]

[crowsloveapples]

Sweet food is really tasty but healthy food is better. Especially if you're sick.

[coughcoughshank]

It's a good thing I'm not sick then, ne?

[Here's to hoping chibis can't hear that slightly false cheer. Even chibis who saw him cough up his own blood >_>]

[notpissedoff]

[Hm. Okay...]

Daitou.

[A pause - he's thinking of questions that he doesn't mind everyone else hearing. It's hard. There aren't many.]

...Was that yours or mine?

[coughcoughshank]

[pause]

Is there any way to tell for sure?

[notpissedoff]

I suppose it makes little difference.

[Long pause, and then spoken softly, as if testing the sound of the words to himself:]

We were friends. [Because why else would he have cared that much? It's not like he was his doctor, or anything...]

[coughcoughshank]

[...]

Would you rather talk in person?

[longnosedliar]

[That wet sounding sort of cough... well, that doesn't evoke anything pleasant in Sniper's mind.]

That cough didn't sound too good, Daitou.

[coughcoughshank]

[This situation calls for boldfaced lies!]

I guess I must have had a cold or something.

[longnosedliar]

That wasn't a cold sort of cough.

[coughcoughshank]

Hm, you think so?

[pinkmoonrabbit]

Are you alright, Dai-chan?

[coughcoughshank]

Mm, I'm fine! I must've had a cold or something in that memory.

[pinkmoonrabbit]

You sounded pretty sick! I'm glad it was just a memory and you aren't sick right now.

[coughcoughshank]

I'm glad too!

[And extra glad that's only half a lie]

[dragonking]

Risking your health for food, hmm?

[coughcoughshank]

Well...it was probably really good food?

[dragonking]

It better have been.

[coughcoughshank]

I can't see myself going for food that wasn't good. Unless the company was very good too.
