[Accidental Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

[This isn't the first time Emil has returned home to an uncomfortably quiet house. It's not unusual for H to be out somewhere during the day, but there's something strange about today, a weird feeling in the house that causes a sinking sensation in the pit of Emil's stomach. Hoping against hope, he's going to head upstairs and open the door to his housemate's bedroom... only to have his worst fears confirmed.

Once again, his journal falls to the ground with a thud, popping open to record a strained, shaky voice.]

N-no... no, not again... no... please...

[OOC: I know, I'm still on hiatus, but Emil wouldn't not react to his housemate vanishing.]

Ah...is everything all right?

[knightofratatosk]

Huh? Oh, I'm fine... have we met before?

[Deflection mode, go!]

[asmilethatkills.livejournal.com]

No, we haven't.

...You sounded scared.

[knightofratatosk]

I... my housemate just got sent home. I didn't realize the journal was recording all of this... I'm sorry.

[asmilethatkills.livejournal.com]

...It's okay. One of my housemate was sent home too...I miss him.

[knightofratatosk]

Yours too?

[He sounds sad.]

I'm sorry. It... it really doesn't get any easier, no matter how many times it happens.

[asmilethatkills.livejournal.com]

You've had other housemates go home...?

[knightofratatosk]

Yes, two of them so far. But I guess... I guess that's not so bad when you consider that I've been here for a year and a half.

[asmilethatkills.livejournal.com]

Wow, you've been here a very long time!



I hope I don't have to stay here for a long time. Mother and Father will worry about me.

[knightofratatosk]

I'm sure your parents miss you a lot. At least you'll get to see them again when you go home, right? Then you can tell them not to worry about you yourself.

[asmilethatkills.livejournal.com]

Mm! I can tell them about all the nice people I've met here. Ah, my name is Selim by the way.

[knightofratatosk]

I'm Emil... it's nice to meet you, Selim. So where are you from, anyway?

[asmilethatkills.livejournal.com]

It's nice to meet you too, Emil. I'm from a place call Amestris. Big city with a big military.

[knightofratatosk]

Amestris... I don't think I've heard of that place before. Is it on Earth or somewhere else?

[Considering how many people are from Earth...]

[asmilethatkills.livejournal.com]

Mhmm, it's a country with a big city in the middle call Central. That's where I'm from.

[knightofratatosk]

I don't know how the Malnosso can even keep track of all of these different worlds and dimensions and stuff. I can barely remember where all of my friends are from, even the ones I've known for a long time.

[asmilethatkills.livejournal.com]

Maybe they have their own big secret library with all that information.

[knightofratatosk]

You mean like the one in the village, only bigger?

[asmilethatkills.livejournal.com]

Yea! With stuff they don't want us to know.

[knightofratatosk]

I wonder if they have an entire book about each one of us.

... wait, that's kind of a creepy thought.
