[Michael's been a little busy with stuff lately, so it's not too surprising that he missed the call. Nonetheless, he'll just call back as soon as he gets the message!]

Hey! Yeah, no problem, man. How are you feeling?
siriusly: (those are sugar-free gummi bears)

[personal profile] siriusly 2021-11-08 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
Oh-- [that was. that was fast! unexpectedly so, considering how off-guard Manabu sounds.] He-hey, Michael. I, um. I'm...better, yeah. Thanks. Are you? Good?
eudaimonikos: (omnipotence)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2021-11-08 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Just working on some stuff - getting a job and all that, you know. You're not at the house, are you?
siriusly: (i wish you'd stop......)

[personal profile] siriusly 2021-11-08 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
Not...nn, not at the moment, no. [beat.] Do...you need me to get something there? Or...
eudaimonikos: (and I'll tell you that I am fine)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2021-11-08 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
No, just checking. I locked the doors before I left, not sure if you've still got your keys.

[.....]

Also, some friends of mine have pitched a tent in the sitting room.
siriusly: ([system reboot])

[personal profile] siriusly 2021-11-08 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
Um... [keys? shoot. he'll have to check won't he, and--]

Huh? [tent? like. camping tent? why? and--

wait.]

...

[...no, seriously, wait. brain is still kinda soupy. who the hell was the weird guy with the tent full of pigs and stuff...?]

...Vyng?
eudaimonikos: (the song of god)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2021-11-08 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! Good, you've met! Yes, him and his husband.
siriusly: (actually that's not okay but uh)

[personal profile] siriusly 2021-11-08 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
Why is it...in the house?

[it's a tent.]
eudaimonikos: (a boost over heaven's gate)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2021-11-08 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
They're living in it. Just seemed safer to have it in the house than out on the streets.
siriusly: (n...y...?? maybe???)

[personal profile] siriusly 2021-11-08 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
[..................]

I...I guess that's...fine... I mean, it's...more your house than mine, so...
eudaimonikos: (give me a boost)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2021-11-08 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
Is it? I...

[Well. He lived there longer, sure. But he still thinks of it as Amara's house, if it's anybody's.

Michael thinks better of saying that, though, and lapses into an abrupt silence instead.]
siriusly: (those are sugar-free gummi bears)

[personal profile] siriusly 2021-11-08 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
[the pause carries over to Manabu's end, who needs as much time to process the awkward as he does forming words that won't trip up his tongue.]

I mean-- as far as...who is there ll, longest. I mean.

[beat.]

I also...didn't know it. It was here at first. You...kinda got dibs.
eudaimonikos: (conditionals)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2021-11-08 05:42 pm (UTC)(link)
...right.

[Aaaa, he made it awkward. Let's regroup!]

Well! It's no big deal - I really don't need that much space just for me. Besides, according to our personal timelines, you left it much more recently than I did.
siriusly: (:\ um this is uncomfortable)

[personal profile] siriusly 2021-11-08 05:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh--I...I guess so.

[another pause - a longer one.]

You haven't...seen Amara lately, have you?
eudaimonikos: (and I'll tell you that I am fine)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2021-11-09 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
...no, I haven't. Pretty sure she's not around.

[Anyone else, he might buy that they could've arrived and been missed, but Amara tends to make her presence pretty well-known.]
siriusly: (yeah ok fine whee sure neat)

[personal profile] siriusly 2021-11-09 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
[he makes a faint, barely audible sound.

after a beat:] At least...I know I didn't...worry her, then.
eudaimonikos: (moral agency)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2021-11-09 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
.....yeah.

[god this is bombing]

Seems like it's better than a Deerington death, though?
siriusly: (:\ um this is uncomfortable)

[personal profile] siriusly 2021-11-09 12:15 pm (UTC)(link)
It, um. [welllll...] I...I don't know if I'd, uh. Pick one over the oth-other. They're...both bad in their own ways. So just be careful, okay?
eudaimonikos: (serious matters)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2021-11-09 03:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, of course. You too.

So, are you coming back home soon?
siriusly: (i wish you'd stop......)

[personal profile] siriusly 2021-11-10 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
I, I...I mean, unless it's too crowded there now...
eudaimonikos: (consequent)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2021-11-10 04:58 pm (UTC)(link)
No, of course not. I didn't give away your bedroom. I'll just make sure the door's open, grab some food.

[He's still not in the habit of eating alone, and Vyng and Tuck seem to have their own tent-kitchen, so maybe things are a little scare there right now. It's fine.]
siriusly: (item get)

[personal profile] siriusly 2021-11-10 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[he makes a faint sound of acknowledgement.]

Thanks, yeah, I...I don't know if...I mean, I still have to find some of my be-belongings. Keys are part of that, I guess.
eudaimonikos: (repetition)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2021-11-11 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
Figured. Dying's weird.

[Just generally, but especially when your body and all your possessions don't just turn into smoke.]

No big deal, I can just get a copy made if you can't find them. Think I could make it myself, actually.
siriusly: (whoa what wait hang on)

[personal profile] siriusly 2021-11-11 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Aa, yeah, that's right...that's not too bad. [one less thing to worry about. good.]

I'll be back before dark, then.

Thanks, Michael.
eudaimonikos: (start over again and again)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2021-11-12 02:36 pm (UTC)(link)
No problem. See you later.
