hisdarkmark | Fortieth Hex - [Written/Action]

[When he first opens his eyes, he's immediately blinded by the sunlight and he hisses loudly, rolling over in the dirt to shield his eyes. He doesn't move for a moment, barely bothering to take in what was going on. It was obvious he was back. His clothes were still torn and disgusting from the last draft, and he had a few dried scabs on his arms, but otherwise...he seemed fine.

Sitting up, he gropes around the area for his journal to check the date.

Shit. Just how long was death supposed to last in this place? He supposed it wasn't too entirely unusual, considering how long Arumat was gone when he had been murdered. He adjusts himself on the ground, shifting the way he's sitting and reaching in his pocket for a pen. The writing is scratchy and scrawled, but the words are legible.]

So that's what it's like.

[He doesn't care. He doesn't care to read through everything and find out what he's missed. He's on his feet and carefully walking toward house 25, already knowing that Tsuzuki and Hisoka were waiting for him and most likely could kill him again for being dead for so long.

The thing was, however, was that he couldn't figure it out. He couldn't seem to wrap his mind around what he's lost as a penalty. Maybe he got lucky and they didn't take anything at all. That would be nice, wouldn't it? But it seemed highly unlikely, especially considering the nagging in the back of his mind that something was missing. He'd just have to work it out later.

Hmm...hello house 26. You seem awfully familiar, and not in the way that it was the house some of Draco's friends live in now. He used to spend a lot of time in that house, didn't he?

No. Maybe not. He couldn't imagine why he would...must be mistaken.

It isn't until he's almost at his front door that he takes his journal again, scrawling out a few more words.]

...am I the last one to come back then? Suppose they really do save the best for the end.

And I don't want him following me. [Said from another room. He's checking the other side to make sure wasn't damaged ~~since I forget the layout of house 26~~]

[He brushes the ash off of his hands, so he won't dirty more of Hisoka's things. Tsuzuki helps him with the bed, giving him a long look. Quietly, as if to avoid Draco hearing it, he says:]

I think you should, anyway.

He doesn't want it. Aren't you the one always going on about how I'm not considering his feelings? I'm being considerate now.

No, you're not seeing things clearly.

[He's not angry, but it's obvious from his tone that he's serious. Tsuzuki doesn't like vindictive childishness.]

If you were considering his feelings, you wouldn't have been ready to attack him when he came back.

I didn't raise a hand against him! He attacked me. I was just trying to shield the damage.

I'm not saying it was okay to attack you. [He places a hand on the bookshelf, as he thinks about the situation.]

But you have to keep in mind that it was he who went through this traumatic ordeal. If you really want to consider his feelings, you need to put yours aside first.

"Oh, so sorry Draco you tried to leave but we're stuck in prison so it didn't work now you have no choice but to be with us deal with it"?

Is that what you call being considerate of his feelings?

He just threw a fireball at me.

I seem to remember a certain partner of mine turning my hand to crisp, too. We forgive and forget, 'Soka.

Not after this we don't.

[He raises a brow.]

Why did he throw a fireball at you, Hisoka?

Does it matter why?

Yes. What kind of question is that?

He kept barging into my space trying to pretend nothing happened. You can't just do</> that.

That doesn't explain the fireball.

It's Draco. [That totally explains the fireball.]

Wow. What did you say to him?

I didn't. [SILENT'D.]

Does that mean you haven't even asked him about what happened?

I don't need to ask him about what happened.

Actually, you do. We need to hear what happened so we can find out why it took so long.

Then ask him yourself.

I will.

[He takes a deep breath, crossing his arms over his chest.]

I know you were scared that he would leave you. Why aren't you glad you got him back?

I wasn't scared!
