[The camera clicks on, and Issei's face immediately comes into view. He looks tired and worse for wear, but his eyes are the same old blue that they usually are, and when he lets out a sigh and starts to speak, it's with his own voice.]

Could someone tell me why I've been unconscious for a week?

((Tatsumi supernaturally-powered bitchslapped possessed!Issei into submission. Issei has absolutely no memory of what happened while he was possessed. Any interaction with possessed!Issei we didn't get to may be assumed. Due to computer troubles, I'm making sure to post this now: comments might be a bit later.))

Are you alright?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Doesn't matter. Do you know whether Haruto's all right?

[badasssecretary.livejournal.com]

It matters, Issei. Yes, he's fine, I took him to a safe place.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I'm recovering physically. Can I see him? I need to be able to take care of him, or at least do something to help...

[badasssecretary.livejournal.com]

But not mentally, that's important too. Of course, but I need to ask him if he wants to see you. He might be a bit traumatized.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I don't blame him.

[badasssecretary.livejournal.com]

It's not because of you, but people who been attacked soemtimes needs time.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I know, I know. Still, it's good that he's doing well.

[badasssecretary.livejournal.com]

All will be fien with time and effort, Issei. You are a monk, you know about patience.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I should. This is an important time to put it into practice.

[badasssecretary.livejournal.com]

Exactly.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Even if I don't think I'll succeed wholly, I have to at least try.

Sorry for the double post, I'm not sure hat happened :|

[badasssecretary.livejournal.com]

You don't have to do it alone.

It's all right.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

♥

[badasssecretary.livejournal.com]

That's why people is for, Issei. Sometimes you can help, sometimes you need help.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I don't like to be a burden, but I suppose I should accept it.

[badasssecretary.livejournal.com]

Only because you might need help know doesn't make you a 'burden'. When your friends need help you think about them as burdens?

[badasssecretary.livejournal.com]

And you need totalk about this with someone, Issei.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I'm fine, truly...

Papa! Tatsumi will lectur eyou if you keep beign in denial Issei >:|

[badasssecretary.livejournal.com]

Issei.

He lectures because he cares.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Tatsumi?

Exactly

[badasssecretary.livejournal.com]

Lying to me and lying to yourself is not going to work.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

It isn't a lie. There's nothing the matter with me than a day of rest won't fix.

[badasssecretary.livejournal.com]

you was possessed and nearly killed your friends. Don't tell me that this is something that rest can fix, I know it doesn't because that happened to a friend of mine too.

[ooc: canon fact, Tsuzuki was possessed by a demon and tried to kill them all :| this is stuff Tatsumi knows.]

[stripping.livejournal.com]

But I... I've already tried to kill them, the very least I can do is not worry them any more.

((...Tatsumi's life kind of sucks.))
