Long After The Silence
'How long has it been? Since the day Raiden Shogun has left?' Aether thought, as he glides her hand under his chin. Thinking for a bit.
Kokomi purse her lips as she struggles with all the paperwork in front of her. Unknown sweat trickles down her face, with her body running cold from all of this stress.
"Kokomi, I think you're overworking yourself. Maybe you should take a rest." Paimon explained, worried if fishsticks over here was going to pass out.
"Thank you Paimon for being worried about me, but this is all fine. I just need to figure out where the Shogun has gone to." Paimon turns to meet Aether's gaze, as she shakes her head. "You don't think anything bad happened to her right?"
Aether stares at his mascot, emergency food, fairy, and then back at Kokomi. He shakes his head, while shrugging. Placing his bets on that she is really fine, but that could also be a gamble.
"Well. . . isn't that a good thing? The Raiden Shogun has been causing all of this drama so far, it would be better for us to patch up the scars made by her you know?" Paimon suggests having Aether think for a bit.
Kokomi still is lost within the stacks of paper on her desk, eyes tired and still cold. 'Is this truly a good thing?' he wonders. 'What if this were to happen again?' Thus, the doors shut as Aethet and Paimon bid Kokomi a farewell.
"Itadori is dead." Fushiguro says, stricken with a bottomless pit of no emotions.
Out of all of your time you had spent in your Plane of Emuthiya, this loud silence, feels, heart wrenching. Is it because you are sharing this similar silence with others? Why did another friend had to go? At least this time . . . you look at your hands, it wasn't because of you.
"He told us to live a long life. But all your problems vanish when you die. " Kugisaki mumbles, but continues. "Is this your first time having your comrade die?" You only stare on in confusion, your muscles tense, then go stiff as your motionless state has taken over. You block out the little conversation between Kugisaki and Fushiguro have with one another.
"Hmph, you seem oddly fine."
"You seem fine too."
"Well, I only knew him for two weeks. I'm not such a soft woman... that would cry over the death of someone like him." Anyone could tell that she was lying. Anyone can tell she was only just keeping it in.
"It's so hot."
"Yeah, I wonder when we'll get our summer clothes."
"I didn't think it was even possible for you to look even more depressing, Megumi. Is this some kind of wake?" announced a random someone. You look to see a young dark-haired green girl before the three of you, wearing a similar styled uniform, as she holds a bag over her shoulder.
