afterliving | 7th Concert - [ voice ] Reluctant Requiem

[ It's not really like Kohaku to make posts in short frequency, but at least it gives him something to do. Especially when one of the things to spend time with had effectively vanished from this realm of non-existence. ]

Yo... In case any of you care about that short asshole guy named Levi? Lance Officer or whatever the fuck his title was... He's gone.

Must have made his peace like the dumbass he was.

[ And Kohaku can't help being bitter about it. The second walking pool of negativity in the afterlife had disappeared. Even someone like Levi could apparently find salvation. What a traitor. ]

I don't even know why I bother updating anybody on this, but now you know. Bye.

[ It's a bit like a comrade - that was the closest term to 'friend' he would dare to use - had died. Died by giving up.
But of course that is bullshit. They were already dead. There was nothing that really mattered. They were just here because they refused to give up. Refused to stop suffering, too, maybe. Kohaku won't admit a thing about that though. All that is certain was that now he'll have to find a new sparring partner. ]

If it let us go back once, they can let us go back again! [Her hand comes up, fist in the air.] We just have to find the person who can do it!

[ Alright, alright, now she actually gets a grin from him. Sometimes even Kohaku gets tired of being negative. ]

That's the spirit. A goal's good to keep us from losing it here, too.

[She's getting into it, too.] Then I'll use my brain to find them and you can scare them into telling us what we need!

[ He'd make a snarky remark but just now he decided to be comparatively nice so it goes unsaid. Instead he cracks his knuckles. Scaring people is something he's good at, alright? ]

Sounds like a plan. Can't wait tell we get our hands on him.

[Sena assumes so... just look at him.]

It's that weird guy that texts everybody sometimes.

You sure he isn't just some sort of henchman? Think the voice who ruined the school festival mentioned something like that..

Even if he is, he knows who could do it. If he's not a boss, we might be able to get him on our side.

[Ignore the video game talk.]

[ Good advice - Kohaku's gonna take it and just leave whatever logic she's using for someone else to figure out. ]

You'd seriously work together with a personality-less empty shell like him?

I wouldn't be working with him, he would be working for me. [There's a difference.] Then he could lead us to the man who can get us out of here.

[She seems a bit too proud of that logic.]

Bit better, but not much difference if you ask me.

He may be useful but he's such a creep.

Huh? When does being a creep bother you?

Uh, always?

[ Nevermind that he's pretty much a freak himself and spends most of his life and afterlife surrounded by creeps of one or the other variety. ]

But you're a creep so how can it bother you?

Wha--?!

I'm not!!

[Her tone is so matter of fact, as if he should have known.]

Of course you are. That's probably why you were such good friends with him.

I NEVER EVEN SAID WE WERE GOOD FRIENDS!

[ And he's so easy to irritate, ah yes. ]

I'm not anything like him [ lies. ] or any other weirdo!

Eh? I always thought you were happy to be a Yankee.

There's a difference between being an asshole and being a weirdo!

[ He admits the asshole part at least. ]

Huh? What's the difference?

When you're just a generally unpleasant person you still think like everyone else, you just get pissed off a hell lot easier and don't really care who you end up hurting.

When you're a weirdo you... enjoy really fucked up things or don't understand what people say to you or mess with them on purpose and other bullshit.

That sounds like the only difference is if you're an idiot or not.

Guess that cuts it pretty well, yeah.

[She doesn't look sure.]

I know a lot of idiots.

There are a lot.

Besides you and the NPCs, I don't know a lot of weirdos.
