-All Through The Night-

[After a few tries to contact Thanatos, he finally managed to reach him.]

[So Akira sat on the roof, staring out into the fog, waiting for the winged god to join him.]

"... Sorry." He goes quiet for another long few seconds.

"S-so um..." Akira seems to be talking into his chest again. "Sorry. If I wake you or Hypnos at night. I just... stupid nightmares..."

"It's fine. Really. Hypnos can sleep through anything."

Including Izanagi's wedding. :D

"Yeah, well... what about you?"

Akira shakes his head. "You shouldn't have to worry about me..."

[greekreaper.livejournal.com]

...Headtilt?

"Humans worry about kids, right? So why shouldn't I worry, either?"

[kiddiecomp.livejournal.com]

"But I don't want you to have to worry about me. Worrying hurts. And I don't want to hurt you."

[greekreaper.livejournal.com]

"...Please don't. You're a kid. Just leave stuff to me and Hypnos. We can handle this just fine."

... Ffft. Thanatos pushed one of Akira's few angry buttons. He squeezes his eyes shut tightly and tries to calm himself down, but twitches a little.

"Just because I'm a kid doesn't mean I can't do things or take care of myself."

...Wat. He just looks confused.

"I...Isn't that how it's...? I'm sorry..."

Derp, still retarded when it comes to humans. D:

"I just..." Akira sighs. "I'm not a little kid. I'm almost a teenager. I don't... I mean, yes, I kind of need someone to look out for me... I guess... but I'm just... ah..."

He gives Thanatos a hug. :<

"Sorry. I shouldn't have snapped at you. But Naoya keeps telling me that I need to learn how to take care of myself and not rely on other people."

[greekreaper.livejournal.com]

"Yeah. That's important to do, but you should let other people help you. You can't help everyone all the time. Not even I can do that..."

[kiddiecomp.livejournal.com]

"... Yeah, I guess." He yawns a little, and reaches up to pet one of Thanatos' wings.

[greekreaper.livejournal.com]

Awww, yes, go ahead and pet them. :)

"Please don't hesitate to come to either of us if you need help. Okay?"

[kiddiecomp.livejournal.com]

Pet pet pet. So soft...

"... Okay. I'll try."

[greekreaper.livejournal.com]

...

Tentative headpat goes here.

[kiddiecomp.livejournal.com]

He looks up and smiles.

"Thanks."

[greekreaper.livejournal.com]

"No problem."
