Twenty-Third Match [Video]

[kyokugen_sun]

[The video isn't very steady, since Ryohei's making it while he's running up the stairs. He's out of breath, as though he's been running for a long time. His expression is a mixture of urgency, anger, and extreme worry.]

WHERE IS KYOKO?! I CAN'T FIND HER ANYWHERE!

[He slows and stops at the top of the stairs, trying briefly to catch his breath

Comments

He is too ADD to remember that their last two conversations were arguments.

[reckless_eagle]

Like, Kyoko?

[If Ryohei mentioned her name to him, he's forgotten it without a face to put it to, but it's sort of enough that he can see how upset his friend is over her. His voice is a tiny bit deeper than usual, and a bit more tired. He's run himself a bit ragged for the past few days, trying to stay sane (or close enough) and take care of hurt people. Especially in the last day, when he's been trying to stay busy to keep the Major (stupid, stupid, stupid Major!) off of his mind...]

What's she look like? Where'd you see her last?

Ryohei basically forgot as soon as they stopped talking, so they're even?

[kyokugen_sun]

My sister! [His voice is frantic. Kyoko is the most important thing in the world to him, and if she got hurt, he'll blame himself forever.] She was in my room when I left to help Coraline, but she wasn't there when I got back and I can't find her! She's got short brown hair and she's smaller than me!

It's a good thing their scatterbrainedness makes up for their confrontational natures?

[reckless_eagle]

[Sounding exhausted, but ignoring it] I'll totally help you look. Liet will, too. [Or he will pout, and possibly kick him because he's in a bad mood from all the stress and not-sleep.]

Totes. Otherwise they'd never get along.

[kyokugen_sun]

Thank you! I'll repay you to the extreme!

[yakyuunosuta]

Kyoko's missing?!

[kyokugen_sun]

Yes! I looked all night AND I CAN'T FIND HER ANYWHERE! WHAT IF SOMETHING HAPPENED TO HER?!

[yakyuunosuta]

....Maybe.. maybe she's hiding somewhere! I mean, the nights are really scary all of a sudden!

[kyokugen_sun]

But it's not night anymore! And she would have told me where she was!

[midday_italy]

What th-?! [Flinches at the voice, he isn't used to Ryohei's EXTREME VOLUME!!]

K-Kyoko? She's not the one screaming her head off, is she? [Another scream echoes in the air, and he flinches.]

[kyokugen_sun]

[No one will ever get used to this volume. :|]

No! [That better not be her anyway.] Kyoko's my sister!

[midday_italy]

D-Dammit, your sister?! How the hell did you manage to lose a girl?!

[kyokugen_sun]

I was helping Coraline! Kyoko wasn't there when I got back! [Shut up he already knows it's his fault! /sob]

[rebelroses]

Ah- Need some help?

[kyokugen_sun]

Yes! Extremely yes, I need help! Have you seen my sister?

[rebelroses]

Kyoko, right?

[kyokugen_sun]

Yes. She's kind of small and has short brown hair.

[alterdreveries]

Ryohei-san? Kyoko-san is missing again?! What can I do to help?!

[kyokugen_sun]

If you see her at all, let me know! And tell her I'm looking for her!

[alterdreveries]

Okay! I'll look for her too!
