We were always searching, always searching, in a white dress with no eyes

characters: "Kamui" and Leon
location: the Avatican ship, specifically the study
time: after the long ass thread on Leon's lovey-dovey post
rating: PG-13 because... well. it's "Kamui".
open/closed: Closed
summary: "Kamui"'s falling apart, literally, and guess who's to the rescue? A Leon who's (possibly conveniently?) currently lovestruck. ... This will be very strange.


[The urge to run one one hand along the walls to examine the room with something more than just his sight gets stronger by the minute, but knowing full well just what's wrong with his body, he simply cant risk it. With the horrible state of his skin, he might just accidentally tear it off on simple wood. Or, better yet, leave not only his graying skin but also bits and pieces of bone-- possibly the whole hand as well. Reattaching limbs is not painful, as he knows very well after several instances of having his ribs fall out, but it's just... a little disturbing. In a very strange way. He must be getting soft during his stay here, especially since he's being as silent as he can be, with circumstances.

He shrugs a little putting those thoughts out of mind. Losing body parts should not be any stranger to him-- after all, he is the one who removes them from bodies. What's losing his own to him? He'll actually be amused if his eye falls right off its socket like a cartoon character, or a person with a prop eye.

So why did he indulge in Leon's own interests? Who knows. Possibly, he's just that bored, and prefers to have conversation with someone who's not likely to run on catching sight of him. Apparently, there's just something terrifying about a rotting corpse that's over six feet tall. And walking around and talking as if everything was just a-okay in the world. What it is, he doesn't know. Maybe it's just not hygienic. Sadly he cant take a bath, otherwise who knows what might fall off next? (He wont deny he's tried it before, and the water just wont take the blue tinge off of him.)

What's more interesting than the state of his body though is the sudden infatuation of Leon towards him, especially when the older man confessed to not even knowing the name of the person he's interested in. Until very recently, of course.

Flattered? Maybe. Amused? Very much so. And also very thoughtful.

It reminds him of Roxas' condition-- he's so suddenly focused on this friend Riku, when it has never happened before, not until now. And it has started around the same time that "Kamui"'s rib had fallen off the first time...

Two and two make four, obviously, but he wont know if this is the case until he sees Leon in person for the first time. Part of being a wishgranter is the ability to see wishes of anyone, and this is something he's extremely proud of. He knows when someone chooses another, no matter how much they say it's not intentional. If this is indeed some kind of curse, like his, then he will know it just by setting his eyes on the older man.]
