.†. [2nd] N.i.g.h.t. [ video/action > astralfield ]

[insufficient_half]

[ It was over a month since his near death experience and he was out of the hospital. He occupied a small residence a little ways away from the hospital and now briefly sprawled on the opened windows. The curtains were blowing from the small wind current and his eyes were hazed over, thinking of certain being from his past. It was such a strong thought, that he eventually manifested it in Astralfield. A beautiful woman dressed in a long traditional kimono. She had snow white hair and alluring pastel eyes. She moved like a puppet, with her grace and beauty. ]

Shizuka-sama.

[ the words softly called from his window as he watched the woman. Shizuka was no more, and he knew that, but it didn't lessen the pain. In fact, he was starting to pick up on the details of Astralfield as he experienced this, with heavy lidded eyes, and a hazy vacant expression.

The woman continued to do things according to his will, the gentle look and the lonely eyes. Yes, if only for a moment longer, he longed to be embraced by her again. In the end, it was merely a manifestation of his thoughts. He was unaware that they were producing life like imagery, but there was definitely something off about the beautiful woman. She moved in an almost mechanical way. Eventually the feed ends the recording with Ichiru's form slumped over the window and appearing minourly exhausted. It wasn't the first day this happened. It had been frequently happening and somehow the recording took over at some point when he had become drowsy.

The imagery of the vanished as it had appeared moments later when he had lost consciousness. ]

[ ooc: Ichiru was thinking about his special Pureblood, and yeah manifestation during broad daylight and then passing out because he totally did not just overexert himself lol. FEEL free to try to wake him up or bother him or ask him questions! :D ]

[Zero found him fast asleep near the opened window. Sunlight fell across his dormant form, the sight warming his eyes. Quietly, Zero crouched down in front of him to pick him up and set him back on his bed.]

[Action]

[insufficient_half]

[ His sleeping for did indeed look peaceful, compared to his usual strained composure.

He suddenly became aware of his situation and sensing a presence near him, opened his eyes before he had been placed back on his bed. He wasn't sure what happened, but he suddenly felt fatigued enough to have trouble moving away and stumbling a bit. He wasn't sure why, but it probably had something to do with what he had been dreaming up for the past few days. He was slowly catching on.

The younger twin placed a hand to his forward as he turned to face his brother. Of course, Zero would be here. Who was he kidding to think otherwise? ]

Zero...?

[Action]

[leashed_hunter]

[He held him gently, but firmly.]

I'm here.

[Action] forward? sdkhdghs it's suppose to be forehead /sob typos

[insufficient_half]

What happened?

[ Because he frankly couldn't remember how he ended up sleeping again and his body felt rather exhausted beyond normal. His wound had healed so it wasn't that. ]

[Action]Hahahhaah *pats* It's fine. It still made sense. XDD

[leashed_hunter]

You fell asleep on the floor.

[Action] I need to slow down the typing. derping so hard D|

[insufficient_half]

I see.

[ He supposed whatever he was doing during the week had caught up with him. ]

It's the district isn't it?

[ It was a good thing Zero still had a girm grasp on him. He was already half stumbling as he attempted to pull himself together. ]

[Action] Hahhaha Well, you have a lot on your plate, I'm surprised you're still sane! XD

[leashed_hunter]

What about it?

[His grip firms giving him something solid to hold onto.]

[Video]

[endearingpassion]

[Let him assess this for a moment.

...]

You...meant to record that?

[It seemed...not very public worthy?]

[Video]

[insufficient_half]

[ This was after his conversation with his brother for whatever reason, he had picked up his chalkboard and saw a familiar face he had spoken to a few days ago. ]

No. I suppose even the district has a few parlor tricks to display.

[ He replied to the other. Not that he particularly cared that his dreams were being shown. There wasn't anything he could do about it at this point, except accepting it. It was probably why he appeared rather pale and fatigued at the moment, something he would rather not have people see. It was far worse than his vision of Shizuka. ]

Did you need something from me?

[Video]

[endearingpassion]

[His intrest was initially caught because of the shared name. Shizuka was the name of his sister, but Jonouchi knew very well that she was not here, and that she was back in Domino city without him. It dampened his mood a tad is all.]

No. [He didn't.]

[Video]

[insufficient_half]

[ He didn't usually pry at people's business but there was something wrong with the person that was talking to him. The sudden change of mood made the younger twin eye him. ]

Then, why is your expression like that?

[ Assuming something did bother him if he suddenly just spoke to him out of nowhere for no reason at all. ]

[Video]

[endearingpassion]

[A brief pause...]

My expression? What about your mug?! Don't tell me it's stuck like that.

[Video]

[insufficient_half]

I do not see why my expression has anything to do with your sudden reply. You were the one that initiated the conversation, are you not?

[ Calm as ever, because honestly it wasn't like he was foreign to name calling. ]

Action

[ghostly_stutter]

Wh-wh-what...?

[Chloe saw the woman before her, as well as on her device. She jumps as the woman first manifests, then becomes confused. At first she thought she was seeing another ghost. Someone else who wanted something only a necromancer could provide. But the woman never spoke. Something felt off, and Chloe tried to zero in on the angle being videotaped. She was an expert in film and suspenseful angles, after all. That is when she spots someone hanging haphazardly out of a window, and panics.]

H-hey!

[Not the best thing to yell at a stranger. Chloe does her best to make her way to him, worry causing her to tense. What had she been seeing?]

Please don't be dead...

Action

[insufficient_half]

[ After his conversation with Zero, the same process was repeated again, but this time something different had happened and someone else saw it. He was by the other end of the window, somewhat pale in appearance now that someone had called to him. He awoken to the call and cracked his eyes open.

It happened again.

It was starting to become and nuisance, and he appeared as if he was had been weak or fragile, no something he liked at all. Ichiru preferred to keep his demeanor as strong as possible, in any circumstances. ]

Is there something you require?

[ He slowly pulled himself into a more formidable appearance. ]

Action

[ghostly_stutter]

[He hoped to come off more formidable? He accomplished it. Chloe's jog toward him quickly slows to a hesitant walk.]

Who--I--

[Glancing back to the woman he had been recording, Chloe's throat constricts more when she realizes the apparition is gone. A bright blush crosses her face before her eyes narrow. This wasn't like those times before, where she made a big deal about something nobody else could see. Standing taller, Chloe lifts her chin stubbornly.]

You saw her, too. You were recording her on film.

[On film. Then it couldn't have been a ghost. Paling, Chloe takes a hesitant step back.]

Who was she? And how did she vanish like that?

Action

[insufficient_half]

[ He didn't quite get what she was getting at when she stuttered. The boy remained by the window with a faintly hazed over look. It seemed like the fatigue didn't leave his body completely yet. ]

Her?

[ He remembered now. He was watching Shizuka move about absent minded, but now the moving silhouette was no more. Ah, he had remembered why it happened. She was only a manifestation of what he was thinking about. ]

There is no film in the communication device.

[ Ichiru kept his composure as she took a step back, and his face was its usual kind demeanor. ]

An illusion.

[ He replied. ]

Action

[ghostly_stutter]

[The lethargic way he was moving still caused great concern.]

Yes. The--

[His next words caused Chloe to bring up her chalkboard, looking at it with a furrowed brow.]

It doesn't record? There's no memory on here?

[That was kind of unsettling. She could miss something important.]

Illusion.

[A pause, considering.]

Then you created that illusion.

Action

[insufficient_half]

[ It was difficult to remain active when your body was constantly being strained for mmanifesting illusions of another person, and even moreso because of the active way the illusion was behaving. ]

I'm quitet sure there is some for recording that is being done, but I do not believe that it's from film.

[ He replied, sitting up. It was strange that people seemed to find a way to find him. ]

The district allows dreams to manifest, from my speculation. I suppose this has something to do with the abilities of the district.

Action; much later than everyone else

[idiotdetective]

[Yusuke was ignoring the network for awhile, knowing that there were still people expressing their resistance or otherwise bitching about something out of their control. That and knowing this place wasn't the same as Vatheon meant that he needed to do some exploring to learn the place better. It was much larger than the water bubble.

From Orlea, he found himself in Astralfield. It was much different than the district he was placed it, almost like it was a different city entirely.

In the midst of his roaming, Yusuke encountered...something that shouldn't surprise him. What happened here?!

The teen pulled his hands out of his pockets to lift Ichiru's upper half of his body off the ground.]

Hey! Are you okay?

Action; streets somewhere? and lol placeholder tag

[insufficient_half]

[ Ichiru pushed his hands on the ground to get himself situated until her felt someone helping his body off the ground. This week had made him rather fatigued and he was slowly starting to figure out why. It seemed all the things he's been dreaming about dramatically had came back to bite him.

He slowly moved his arm to push away the stranger that was trying to help him. Yusuke was not someone he knew, and yet another person who saw him in such a pathetic state. He was growing weary of this world, and its tentative acts to expose him. ]

...I'm fine.

[ Though, the fatigue was hitting him a lot more than it should. He did fall asleep randomly in the middle of the street. That was not something someone of his caliber was capable of. He was always alert and straight forward. There had been no holes in his weakness until this week. ]

Action; streets somewhere indeed lmao

[idiotdetective]

[While Yusuke can appreciate the stranger's need to go about things as if it never happened, it wasn't always a good thing. He would know, he experienced it all the time with his friends and himself. Still, knowing this, he wouldn't press for answers all that much.]

Do you make a habit of taking naps where people can step on you?

Action; yep~ Ichiru is smart like that taking walks when he's half awake.

[insufficient_half]

[ Iciru was that kind of person. He showed now weakness and would rather not expose his weakness to others. To be physically fatigued right now, bothered him. He fought the drowsy feeling that was clinging to him and attempted to push Yusuke away but rather gently than roughly. ]

No, it is not.

[ He replied. He would not expose himself like this, not since he had forced himself to become stronger. ]

[idiotdetective]

[Yusuke won't fight the guy if he wanted to put distance between them. He was just slightly concerned.]

So you just fell asleep for the hell of it?

[insufficient_half]

[ Ichiru stumbled a bit, but somehow he managed to keep himself balanced. He didn't want anyone else to see him in such a miserable state, a state that made him look weak. He turned towards the other. ]

It is the effect...of the district.

[ His voice was clear at least but trailed off at the last second. It seemed like his body didn't want to cooperate at all. ]
