032 - [After the Shadows]

[tsuntempesta]

[There was a soft frown on Gokudera's lips as he sat in the living room of their apartment, gazing out the window. He hadn't yet spoken to Yamamoto since that encounter with 'himself'. . . But that's probably because he's been avoiding the other male. Mainly due to several things said by Gokudera's own Shadow. He didn't entirely know what was said. . . But he could imagine a little of it. Things that he wouldn't have ever admitted to the Vongola's Rain if he had the choice. Of course, these thoughts and emotions had likely been laid out quite clearly before the other.

He sighed, dropping a hand down to pet Uri gently behind the ears. The feline seemed to be sleeping rather contentedly in Gokudera's lap, a soft purr audible. Another sigh escaped him as he rested his head against the window, eyes closing after a moment and his hand now simply resting on the feline gently. Whether or not he's really asleep is debatable though.]

" . . I understand that much. . . But. . . You aren't really the type to just attack someone for no reason - regardless of which side of the blade you use."

{He shrugged a little less smoothly this time.}

He wasn't supposed to lose...at least something like that.

{Subject change is a go. He doesn't really want to talk about Squalo and the thrill of killing him. Of being the one and only Sword Emperor. Such a sick and sweet satisfaction wasn't something he wanted ever again.}

Have you seen Tsuna... I probably should apologize to him.

[He just frowns softly, but doesn't press the issue further. Besides, you said the magic word guaranteed to catch his attention every time.]

". . . Juudaime? . . .I'm actually not sure."

[There was a slight pause.]

" . . .Why? What happened?"

{He looks out the window and simply runs a hand through his hair. He knew that would work to get you off the topic. He just wished that it didn't work so well sometimes.}

Nothing like killing him. I just wasn't very polite.

{He wasn't going to mention the punching or the groping.}

" . . I supposed as much, but what do you mean by 'not very polite'?"

[swingswallow.livejournal.com]

Nothing really bad. I promise.

" . . . As long as you didn't hurt Juudaime I suppose. . . And you'd better fucking apologize to him."

[He was frowning, seeming displeased. Part of him was nagging him to press. . .But at the same time. . . It might be best not to.]

{He rubs his jaw.}

Well he didn't hit me like you did....
