sasuke and sakura

they are back in the sea


I’m sorry

[And that’s it. Sorry Trench, if you were expecting more information, he doesn’t have it to give. Partly because what do you even say to something like this? And partly because this is Melius we’re talking about and the guy barely does social interaction - let alone dealing with heavy news.]

[… time to wallow in a pile of succulents and misery!]

I'm so sorry to hear that. They did so much wonderful work.

And here I was planning on asking Miss Sakura if I could pitch in more at the Wellness Clinic.

[fusrodaaaah]

I

don't know anything about that. I'm sorry.

[ezra_of_lothal]

That's ok. Thank you for telling us about Sasuke and Sakura.

They lived with you, right?

[fusrodaaaah]

They are my friends. I had to

Yes they did.

[sansa of course made her goodbyes and promises to sasuke and sakura already. the situation with the lamps and dog monsters makes it a bit difficult to start the process of adapting the wellness center and dojo to run within the sanctuary network, but sansa plans to begin as soon as possible.]

Are you all right?

I promised them the Sanctuary would keep the Wellness Center open. I thought it would be nice to have a meeting about it in the hot pools; you're welcome to come if you like.

[fusrodaaaah]

[No, he's not fine. He's very much not fine. Or all right. But pouring that all into his alchemy and gardening seems like a better idea than dwelling.]

[Or thinking.]

I

I'm sorry I don't know anything about the wellness center. I don't think I should.

[dohaeris]

I don't think most of my friends know very much about the Wellness Center. I was planning on telling them about it. You can come just to listen, or to sit in the hot pools.

It's nice to have friends who miss the same people that you do.

[sansa spent years mourning in silence, and finds commiseration deeply preferable.]

( Oh, shit.... The news is a quiet, deep sting.

Peter didn't know Sakura very well, but he'd spoken with her once, and she was.... very kind to him. He doesn't forget things like that.

And Sasuke... well. He'd been helping Peter with Paimon, and that's definitely a loss, but there's a bit more to it. Peter felt like maybe he and Sasuke were becoming friends. )

I'm really sorry to hear this
But it sounds like.... they went together, so I'm glad for that



Are you doing okay? Do you need some help or maybe some company?

( Melius lived with them and.... now he's alone, isn't he? )

[fusrodaaaah]

[It sucks a lot, Peter. The most since his BFF Varian disappeared. Now he's got a whole house. What the heck is he supposed to do with this?]

yes they were
They didn't go by themselves.


I um
I am just working
I don't know what I would need help with

[possessum]

( It's been a few years, but Peter lost his housemate back in Deerington before he moved in with Luna. It wasn't his first time waking up in a house and being the only one left in it. There's a terrible emptiness to the hallways, the air itself, even after you process the fact they're gone. He remembers that feeling often, how it feels like an odd dream. Like you're waiting for someone to come home again and they never do. )

Anything at all, I could bring you some food or help you with work or something if you need it. Or just be some company. Unless you'd rather be alone for awhile. I get that, too.

( People may need to handle this kind of loss different ways, Peter knows that, and he's here to be whatever Melius might need from him. Losing anyone here is hard, but if your friends are also your housemates...? That's... that's a lot. )

I'm sorry. I know it's..... hard, when people leave your home and you're the only one left

...[this is something Tinya was afraid of.

something she thought she was prepared for.

but she's not.

the news is as though someone reached up through her lungs and ripped those and her heart out.

Sasuke was the first friend she made here. he was family, even though he never would have agreed to alliance with House Wazzo.

but maybe she can claim allegiance to House Uchiha here. even if it's only in name.

but she doesn't know this person, so it's a stiff upper lip and a projection of strength]

I...see. Thank you for being kind enough to let us know, Sir...?

[fusrodaaaah]

Melius

Melius Senyan

I lived with them - both of them.

[unphase]

Did you?
Then I'm sorry for your loss as well.

[she hates wording it that way. like they were dead. but they were as good as, out in the ocean]

[Lexi swallows hard, but she has to ask]

Do you know who took over his dojo? Because that's who I'd like to follow, for his sake.

[fusrodaaaah]

No I

I don't know anything about the dojo

im sorry

[thisislife]

It's okay.
It's not your fault.

Shit... For real?
Dude couldn't even stick down for a final show down or anything?
That sucks.

[fusrodaaaah]

Yes

Im

Im sorry

Text UN: 1stStrike

[strikefirster]

Nah.
Don't be sorry about it.
We weren't exactly close or anything.
We just had kind of a rivalry thing going on.
Or I did.

If he was more friends with you I'm sorry he bailed on you.

[ Chizuru didn't really know Sakura or Sasuke that much. But-- she does notice who posted this message, and that stands out to her more than anything else here. Melius noticed. Melius knows them. Melius even bothered to post this in front of god and everyone, when he most of the time seems like he'd rather crawl into a hole than deal with social interaction.

So that's what she naturally focuses on. ]

no
i am sorry for you
i am sure you must miss them already
it is really harsh that people can sometimes disappear like that here
often even without saying goodbye

is there anyone else there with you right now
?

[fusrodaaaah]

[Frankly, crawling into a hole sounds like a fantastic idea. He would love that. Is it possible to have the hole also appear under his feet right now?]

[But this is Chizuru. And it's good to see he isn't totally alone here, now. A good reminder.]

they
are safe in their world
they told me

but it is


i dont know what to do.

[tealeafs]

it is alright
i understand

[ Or she thinks she does, anyway. But she doesn't want to add that nuance, prefering to mostly reassure Melius here. To let him know that he's not alone - not in company, but also not in what he may be feeling right now.

Everyone goes through that sometime here in Trench, Chizuru figures. ]

do you want to eat something together
?

[ Ah, yes, the first thing Chizuru always falls back on.. the comfort love language of food.. ]
