Appointment Post

Post for one-off threads with Joshua. Please include the date in the subject line.

[Neku will wait for quite a while, giving Joshua some time, before becoming inpatient. Plus his legs are starting to get numb here.

Neku shifts under him eventually, trying to move his legs a little.]

Ugh... Josh.

[ Nope, gonna need to do more than that. At the sound of his name, there's almost something like movement, but it's unconscious, a reaction to the familiar and nothing more. Joshua's attentions are still drowned in what he can hear of Shibuya. ]

Josh.

[He's a little more insistent this time, going ahead and trying to push him back.]

[ Joshua makes a soft noise... and suddenly his eyes snap open and he practically tumbles backwards off of Neku, slightly disoriented and trying to get his bearings. ]

What... How long has it been?

[ Because his cheeks feel really wet and letting Joshua get so absorbed in his Music really isn't good for Neku in the long term. ]

I don't know. A while?

[...oh. Now Neku is noticing the tears left on Joshua's cheeks. He's quickly looking away.]

...

[ Joshua wipes away the tears, but he's clearly preoccupied with other thoughts. ]

How long is a while?

I wasn't exactly keeping track of the time. ...you were probably in my lap at least fifteen minutes, though.

[Because his legs are asleep kjfdskjfsd. STRETCHING THEM OUT.]

... Don't let me do it for that long again. [ He holds down the pain and effort that saying the words takes. No matter how much he wants it, it starts to tread into dangerous territory all to quickly. ]

What's the problem? And maybe you should have stated that beforehand.

... Yes, I should have. [ But he's homesick and he's lonely and he's afraid of life without Shibuya. Of what's happening to her without him. ]

No, seriously, what's the deal?

Too much is dangerous.

How the hell was I supposed to know that?

It wasn't supposed to matter. [ But then Joshua kept losing himself in Shibuya. ]

What wasn't?

The danger.

Did it help any at least?

That isn't the point here.

...right. Whatever.

[Sheesh. Neku pushes himself up off the floor to stand.]

[ Oh right we are on the floor, aren't we. Joshua stands up and brushes himself off, then sits right back on his chair. ]

Josh.

[Ughhh he hates when you get like this.]

Neku?

So now you're just going to be in a mood.

It's not you I'm frustrated at, don't worry.

Then talk.
