Well, Neku? I’m burning to know what you think!
“You know,” she whispered softly, hauntingly, leaning forward a touch to speak quietly in his ear. From behind, she put both hands on his shoulders, and the forced smile on her face was nearly visible in the mere tone of her voice, both fond and melancholic in its affect. “I never gave up on you,” Shiki swore, “I always knew you’d come back to us,” to me.
Hypocritically, there were few people in the world she could truly say she believed in as she did him. Shiki was innocent to a fault, trusting even those who shouldn’t be trusted, but Neku had already proven his loyalty, ironically enough, by turning his back on her. Considering all they’d been through, and after all was said and done, be it by the ways in which he cursed her, or his his hands at his throat—she knew he’d never do anything to hurt her like that again. The end truly justified the means, and that’s what made him so special to her.
Her smile doesn't last.
Slowly, her arms shifted, wrapping around his neck in a gentle embrace. She hugged him softly, sweetly, for the first time in three long years, nuzzling her cheek to the top of his head. “Hey,” she said timidly, her tone notably almost somber this time, “promise me… you’ll stay this time,” she pleaded, weak as she was sincere.
“Please, Neku,” she exhaled, voice wavering, “don’t go away again.” | @psychamancy

“Neku Sakuraba~” The name comes off in a lilt like a song. “That kid really saved my ass, the city’s. I think he still sorta idolizes me, and I guess I could be salty at J for that. But I’m not gonna be. He’ll grow out of it eventually, I’m sure. He’s a real strong guy, Phones. He’s got an endurance like I’ve only rarely seen, and his music is beautiful when he gets in tune with the city. I know these years couldn’t have been easy on him. I know adjusting to the life of these patched memories are certainly not easy. I know he’s still having to struggle a lot. But that’s why I gotta be there for him. I have a real soft spot for one’a my favorite Game winners. He’s done a lot for us, and I’ll never forget what he’s given me. I can’t wait to see the man he turns into.”

❛ you’re soundin’ totally creepy , man . ❜
WITH NO HARSHNESS intended , he speaks bluntly , ill - regarding neku’s feelings with the way words are simply tossed from his lips . no second thoughts , no warnings heeded . he thinks for a moment , only after he’s already responded , & something about neku’s words seem to click with him . something connects with him emotionally & he takes a moment to process it all , their atmosphere dancing silently to the beat of their breaths .
he sighs quietly , as if he’s ashamed of himself for casting neku aside without a moment’s hesitation . here he is trying to be meaningful , & beat is beating himself up for not realizing it sooner .
with a swift shake of his head , & the way neku’s fingers wrap around his own , he offers naught but a humble smile .
❛ er -- i mean . . . ya know . ❜
he doesn’t know , & now things are awkward . it takes a bit to realize what exactly neku’s talking about , but not long , since beat’s been allowing it to practically possess his mind these days . however silently , that is . he thinks he’s done well enough to sweep such tragedies beneath the rug of stretched grins & silly banter , but it never goes away . & sometimes he allows it to fester & grow . letting go of the past is tougher than it seems .
he squeezes his hand a little tighter .
❛ thanks , phones . ❜

Megumi knew what he was seeing, but he nearly wished that he didn't. He stood there next to the Composer's ex-proxy and looked upon the ruins of the Shinjuku Government Building. The sky was a deep, unsettling pink that blended in and out of blue. It was bright out, but the sun wasn't visible. It made the city look washed out and dul.
Megumi could feel a dull ache in his stomach at the sight, as he looked around again and fully took in the signs that he’d been willfully blind too. It made him sick to see it now. To realize what had happened to their neighbors. He’d never been overly fond of Shinjuku, but it hadn’t deserved this. Had all of it’s Reapers perished with the city? Had it’s Conductor fallen? It had hard for him to believe that Matsunae would have allowed this, but...
He lets out a long sigh and uncrosses his arms from behind his back. “I see. Our being here must be His doing. There’s no other way we’d have been able to get into the tatters of an Inverted city.”
“Neku, I would advise against wandering off in a huff again.”

❛ i understand if you don’t trust me . ❜
why would he , after all ? after gaara sought nothing but crimson agony for oh so long . after he targeted neku like no one else out of pure envy turned animosity . admitting his loneliness never changed how lonely he was , it only made him realize that perhaps , things will never differ if he were to stubbornly remain unchanging .
