Inanimate as this might be.

(That there was no Star of Bethleham.)

Pein, if you aren't more careful with where you leave your knives, I'll use one of them to kill you. And I'm not speaking of a day far off. Relative to your capacity for spontaneous bouts of intelligence, I think saying this might give you more reason. (Less rhyme? For shame.)

[PRIVATE TO TAYUYA;]

Stop fighting him.

He's trying.

Probably harder than you are, by this point.

That I might never have to say that again. God, that's a sour aftertaste. I'd rather drink alcohol than ever have to reiterate such a thing. (For Deidara's sake, dear Lord. That I might never do anything of such a nature again.)

[/PRIVATE]

You seem set for an outing.

(Are you, then?)
 
 
 
 
 
 
(Did the sight from the window ledge frighten you away from it then?)

It has besought me, the academia (like a stay). The sex in it is nothing. (And so the intercourse itself might be disregarded. Metaphorically speaking.) The dean has discussed with me the fact that I will have to make up at least one semester in an Independent Studies program, and if it is the tuition but not the time invested to such that I will begrudge- (but that would be foolish. To waste. How unsatisfactory.)

And that my body would still betray me with its weakness. (And that sleep would still loiter unkindly to the side of my mind and not anywhere near the cusp of it. I am filled with distaste.) I think that Pein would like to work my muscles until they are bone. That anyone should have to endure such constance. (You know, of course that you make my studying very difficult with your eyes. They're irritating. She irritates me more, of course, but you shouldn't like me to speak as such, in the same way I think she should like me not to speak at all. But if rotund is what she is then you will have to allow me to partake.) And rotund is what she is.

The light that filters in around the edges.

(I will have to wash the curtains again. Have you touched them at all since I departed? They look disgusting. I'm repulse to touch them. The dust will unfurl like wings and that shan't be to my liking, as we both know. This place is in shambles. I wonder if you are able to clean at all...?)

The lingering of-

(tiredness?)

Bitterness.

How unbecoming.

He will not come into this house, Shisui.

[OOC; Surprised? ♥ The whole story behind this is being summarized into a presentable fashion as we speak - Oshima will get the whole story ve~ery shortly. But until then, we're just going to keep you guessing~~~~ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥]
 
 
 
 
 
 
Too long.

PLEASE

Who: Akasun Sasori ([info]this_mannequin) and Uchiha Itachi ([info]crimson_prose)
Where: Sasori's apartment complex.
When: May 25.
What: Itachi - listless, hopeless, proverbially homeless and soaking wet - arrives at Sasori's apartment with bad intentions and worser ailments. Sasori is a decent friend about it, if a very alienated one.
Warnings: To be added as things progress.

(Your and my all-too-constant serpentine.)

Itachi's insides ache and his world is ruled by vertigo. (But he vomitted only a few minutes ago and he hasn't eaten anything recently, so it came up as just burning, foul taste; acid, thick and clean and clear of any debris.)

Rain is pounding the asphalt; April doesn't bring showers, in Oshima - it's May that really ushers in storm clouds. (The average precipiation Oshima recieves per year is one hundred and seven point two inches. Of that one hundred and seven point two inches, approximately eight are collected in the month of April. In comparison, thirteen are collected in the month of May.) The air is thick, humid, heavy with water and only ten degrees below his body temperature which is a good degree Celsius lower than it should be. (He's been outside a long time. He doesn't know how long. He doesn't care how long. Itachi doesn't care about anything, now. Not anymore.) It's not cold, but he's soaked to the brittle-glass bone so everything seems colder.

His clothing (he's never removed it since prom) are more than just a wee bit damp and clings to him like a second skin (like his only skin) - the coat and shirt are long skewed, he seems to exhibit similar qualities, his hair down, lengthened by it's wetness, by the rain water, slick and ebony, eyelashes clinging to one another like hens left out in a gale. He's colder underneath the eaves than he was in the park a short while ago - the ominous sounds of the downpour are all around him and he eyes the apartment building almost warily before retreating back and them losing himself against the cluster of raindrops, human likeness dissolving among them, his emotionlessness interchangeable with self-loathing.

Itachi doesn't really have the presence of mind to hate himself or anything. The only thing he has is the way he can't swallow, the nausea, the constant head ache, the throbbing pulse that whines too constantly against the back of his black eyes. (He can't feel it. He can't feel anything. The rain pounds against the street and the concrete of the building and against his sallow, sickly-pale skin that is deep with no food, no hunger, no drink, no sleep, no feeling. He looks waxen.)

There is an onyx stud in each of his ears and a silver one just below his belly button and there is no logical reason he's here. (Except that the name that's carved into his back has yet to- Bandages slathered thick and lazy over his skin. They're wet and rotting, he can smell them. He doesn't care. Itachi doesn't care about anything, anymore.)

If Itachi had the presence of mind to think about anything, he would think that he might be a little insane, at the moment. (The deranged rocking of the Earth, back and forth, back and forth, and that ever terrible feeling.)

But he doesn't really care.

(Itachi doesn't care.)

The lobby is wide, echoing, colder than outside and his skin tightens with chill, the mucles clinging to him prematurely, like small children. He doesn't care (about anything) for elevators (a quick death, a plummeting fall and the bones, the body can't handle the impact. You fly up against the roof of the elvator, your skull cracks, a long schisming blood line that erupts from the splinters of bone imploding upon themselves. Your spine snaps in half, your neck breaks, your head breaks, your shoulder bones shatter, and everything goes black - the pain is immense and the satisfaction is instant,) and so takes the stairs (a long treck upwards) not feeling, not seeing (not breathing-)

The door is unfamiliar, the key is unfamiliar, the cold is so familiar that it assuages the pain like something medicinal. (Suicide jumper you are my only love-)

Cold metal in his fingers.

He doesn't even follow it with his eyes. He simply traces the long, spider-like ends of his own fingers and has an insatiable urge to-

(Suicide jumper-)

It's all he can do not collapse once he's in, and he removes his sopping wet (feet) shoes almost habitually. Under any other circumstance he would look disdainfully around him (it smells like metal, like blood, like his blood, like Sasori's prowess) and think ugly thoughts about the fact that he was dripping on the hardwood floor.

Under any other circumstance.

But in this one he is dead (silent.)

4. Humorlessness - 62.5%
5. Shyness - 58.3%


Dating Strengths Explained
Appearance - Despite what some will say, appearance matters in dating. You get high marks on appearance. Just make sure you balance it out with other qualities.
Intelligence - Your sharp intellect is a valuable asset. Use your intelligence wisely; avoid condescension. Quiet, confident intelligence is very attractive.
Financial Situation - You've got your financial situation under control, which is a very desirable quality. Be careful to avoid guys who are only interested in your money.
Adventurousness - You are willing to try new things and be spontaneous. You want to get out there and really live, and you will attract people with a similar love of life.

Dating Weaknesses Explained
Vanity - Learn to put a lower priority on looks. Appearance is, of course, important, but vanity is undesireable. The only people you will attract are the superficial.
Arrogance - You are a bit full of yourself. You need to practice a little humility now and then, as arrogance can be a turn-off.
Selfishness - You think too much of yourself and your needs. You must learn to put your partner first and tend to his needs.
Humorlessness - You need to learn how to take a joke, or better yet how to tell a good one. A well-developed sense of humor is high on the list of desired traits for daters.
Shyness - You know all too well the limits shyness places on you. Putting yourself out there in social situations may be difficult, but essential to your dating success.

crimson-prose is emotionally distant.
I bet no one's surprised that you never post your current mood. In fact, I bet most of your friends are so sick of you locking them out of your life that they hate you behind your back. Shame.

...it wouldn't altogether suprise me. Shut the fuck up.

...Shisui, I have no idea what you're planning, but it sounds ridiculous.

And on the subject of alley cats, I really don't see the problem since it wasn't fish you or I was willing to eat. Well, you maybe but that doesn't make it reasonable. ...or healthy.
 
 
 
 
 
 
To allow this all to transpire.

How utterly ridiculous.

(Apparently I need referrences. I'm not looking forward to getting them.)
