Took a sick day

[UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH YOU PAY YOURSELF THOUGH??]

oh

well, i can see why you want the company now at least. i'll head over!

[No further answer, and the tree is...dark, when Shingo arrives. The door is unlocked, so entering is easy-but when he gets to the main living areas all there is, is Loki in his typical moon-glow, to Fog Mode extent. A twelve foot 'panda' mess of metal and gold, sitting and slouching with his ears flat as he stares at a globular terrarium.

He knows you're there.

He just can't bring himself to talk just yet.]

[Entering to a dark house isn't good hospitality, buddy.]

Oi! Loki! What the heck's going on here?

[Wandering around, wandering around...aha, there you are.]

Che, there you are! Man, what's happening?

[Loki's weird bionic eyes look to Shingo with possibly the most despairing expression he's ever seen on the bear. Hell-when was the last time ANY despair showed on this guy? (not to mention on his overly ridiculous looking fog mode, for that matter)

It's...] ....Feebs 's gone, [he says flatly. 'Feebs', Flame Princess, the roommate, the landlady, the one that Loki practically saw as an older sister-Shingo would know her as the Nymph that REALLY got particular when they action dueled too roughly but...]

...Even waited for the fog, [he croaks] ...In case she told the fourth to bugger off with the protection detail, but....

...she's gone mate. [...The bear is shaking.] She's gone.

Feebs...?

[That...fire nymph girl? He'd spoken to her a fair few times, but...

If...what had happened last month wasn't still fresh on the brain, he'd ask differently, but this time, he knows better.]

Like...Fog God took her, gone? Gone gone?

[There is a low rumble, a growl, when Shingo mentions the fog. But the giant bear curls in on himself, sniffling instead.]

....we both came in here together, mate....when the 4th was trying to one-up the fog, bringing a bunch of others in...

...'d thought she was gone until she showed up with all the arrivals in Dyster again, and now...

[Now she's not coming back at all.]

...Dammit...!

[Sawatari slams his fist against the wall, scowling.] This is happening again...? When is she gonna be satisfied, huh?

...Again..?

[The bear shifts, and peers toward Shingo with water-filled eyes.] ....What do you mean...again?

Oh, uh...

[He shifts uncomfortably, frowning.]

Last month, at our place. You know that Kurosaki guy, right? Big ol' angry werebear?

Kuro- [Oh he does.

He more than knows him, if the way Loki seems to pale even beneath his fur is any sign.] No... Him too?!

Yeah.

[Sawatari continues to scowl, looking down.]

Last month. Found out when... [He visibly hesitates, apparently unsure on how much he wants to say.]

...the others came back home.

Last-

Oi, you mean...that mess with everyone's dreams? With the... [...He trails off, turning away awkwardly. He won't exactly say that it was a GOOD idea, pulling that mess...but he can't ignore the thrill of seeing the Fog put in her place, either. Loki merely goes silent, lowering himself to the ground and staring at his terrarium.]

...right.

...I... ...we'd done a few missions together, you know? ....For the 4th...

Yeah, uh, something like that.

[He scratches the back of his head.]

Really? Guess he musta been a good ally there, at least... [Since he never wanted to be acknowledged as one of Sawatari's, bleh.]

[Good... ....Loki nods, curling a bit more like the panda he vaguely resembles. It's odd for Loki to be like this-heck, Shingo probably hasn't even seen his fog form until now, given the other's alignment keeping it in check.

Something about it is comforting however, or at least it is to Loki himself.]

..Yeah, [he finally says, eyes dull.] ...Would've rathered she go with me though...or you, [he adds.] ...Could've been more than business for a 'field trip', then.

...I figured you'd want to stay out of that shite though.

Yeah, pretty much. Helps to have an unbiased opinion in the house, you know? Besides, Yuya would get ~lonely~ if I left for that, don't you think?

[tl'dr he doesn't want to get on his rival's bad side, and besides, he's not too keen on either god to begin with.]

Huh? Unbia-

[He pauses. And then despite the mood he has to laugh-and keep on laughing, until it becomes tears again and he's forced to wipe his eyes.] Pffhfhahhah..nah mate, not like that.

Just as company, you know? ...I wouldn't ask you lot to pick a side, or anything like that.

...But Feebs, she seemed ticked just knowing I'd asked him to watch her back...

...so asking her to join me on that kind of trip? Hah...better forget about it.

[Sawatari snickers as Loki begins laughing-finally! Something he said properly lightened the mood for once!]

Yeah, yeah, I get it, just my little joke, see?

Pfffhahahaha...right..!

[Hahhh...he sits a little more properly, rubbing his head.] ...Ahhh...guess I can't really action duel properly in the tree like this though, or I'd offer a match again...though I guess you didn't bring one of those disks over to borrow anyway huh...

Nah, maybe you'd be the field instead, at this rate...

[Wow, rude. But actually, now that you mention it...]

Actually, I was working on getting one of my own, but it's taking some time...

Oii!! I'm not that big..!

[And oh?] What, you were? What's taking so long then?

Well, kinda got interrupted by the whole mess last month...between that an' Kurosaki leaving, it's been a bit of a mess...

[He shrugs, laughing nervously.]

That, and I have to wait for a full moon to finish it off, anyway...

Huh, moon timing makes sense, you miss one you got a month to go...

Oi, hold on then, you have everything else ready though right?!

Actually, no...

[Sigh. Wow, this guy is pretty helpless sometimes, huh?]

I've gotten one of the things so far- [Thanks, Reira.] -but the others, I'm still looking for.

[Uh huh...]

...Well what the hell are you waiting for then, what else so you need mate?
