[ Yeah, he misses your company, Rethe. ]

cheesy as it sounds, you could say that
i'm following my heart?


[ ...and he's belatedly remembering that he never really got to talk about him and Hikaru hooking up... with you.

Right. ]


i messed up. panicked when there was no reason to.
spoke to alistair, and he gave me a ticket and a key
to a car. and now i'm on a long flight to a country
i've never been to before.


[ It is... a little nervewracking. Okay, not just a little. ]

[ He lifts a hand to run his fingers through his hair as he reads through that message. ]

i just don't want to lose him. he means a lot to me.
i don't know when that happened. it just kind of did.

[ There's a sigh from Josh's end as he turns his gaze out the window. He's riding a regular flight with regular people around. It's the first time he's does this in... ever. ]


jessie told me a couple weeks back that there's no instruction manual
for this kind of thing. not to say that i wish there was one, it's just
scary, you know?

i don't even know what i'm going to do when i finally land in dublin.

[ He ends up staring down at his ringing phone for about a quarter of a minute before he finally remembers that he should pick up. ]

Hey, Rethe.

[ Does he sound incredibly sheepish? You bet. ]

[ He's sinking into his seat before he realizes it. The smile in your voice is reassuring in ways he can hardly express. ]

Yeah, [ a soft chuckle. ] It kind of is.

[ Pausing for a moment at that, then: ] Sorry. Um, was I...?

I wasn't bothering you, was I?

[personal profile] larue 2014-08-25 08:31 am (UTC)(link)
[ There's an exhale of breath from his end then. ]

Sorry. Just wanted to be sure?

[ He doesn't like bothering people for no reason. He's a full grown man, who occasionally feels like a teenager completely out of sorts. Today included. ]

Thanks. [ That's murmured shyly. ] I needed to hear a friendly voice.

[ A soft, sheepish chuckle whose tone dips a little at the end. It's so odd that your voice is the only familiar thing around for the rest of this long flight. The other Hounds are still back at home. ]

Thanks, man.

[ He's totally grateful that you called, even if he's suddenly not sure what to say. ]

[ And that's actually helping him relax a little into his seat. ]

Where'd you go on those flights?

[ He probably hadn't been born yet, or he was too young to remember anything. The latter part of the Darkest Vigil he'd seen only from the news. Even in Canada, it had felt relatively far away. There had also been more pressing concerns then: hiding, worrying over his family. ]

[ You won't see the way he's looking out the window, or the slight crease between his brows. He's oddly enough remembering the day Derik Sloane had sat him down to tell him that he could live in the quarters above the Blue Coffin to wait out the war.

The One isn't ready for you yet, Josh.

He had no idea back then that 'The One' was you. ]


Funny, [ that's soft and a little sheepish. ] I can't quite picture you doing undercover work.

[ The sound that escapes him implies that he finds his own thought-process pretty silly. ]

I guess it's because I've never seen you in action for Vigil work.

[ It's the truth. He's gone on walks with you to lay the dearly departed to rest, and that's one aspect of who you are. But actual combat? He hasn't seen that.

It's kind of funny... he's... never watched any of your engagements. ]

[ If he's quiet for a moment longer than necessary, it's only because he wouldn't have presumed to ask and this is a pleasant surprise. ]

You know... I'd... I'd really like that.

[ Does he sound a little shy? Maybe. You're kind of one of his favorite people. ]
larue: (can't keep lovin'  you like this)

[personal profile] larue 2014-10-14 02:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I think I'd -- well, we... we'd like that.

[ You and Kaz get along well. And well, you're a Malice King. Accompanying you would be an experience that they could use if their previous... okay, let's not go there.

Sorry, he's fallen a little quiet. His thoughts turned to Hikaru since, well... he's the Malice King they've been around the most. ]
