13th Combo - [Video]

[A letter. That's what Lloyd had come home to. A letter. A letter and a suddenly empty apartment, all of Zelos's things just... gone. Lloyd stands there, still numbly holding the letter. Things had been strained between them ever since he'd found out. Found out that Zelos was dead. And how. Why. But he hadn't seen this coming.

Moved out.

Gone.

His thoughts feel broken and stilted. Zelos was gone.

Squeezing his eyes shut, the teen drops heavily into a chair.]

Dammit...

[For a long time all he does is just sit there, too many emotions lodged in his throat and his head to manage anything else. Finally, he pulls his Dreamberry out. He probably looks as bad as he feels - guilty, miserable. Angry. - but he honestly doesn't care. He needs to say something, even if it's stupid and childish.]

Somebody hit Zelos when you see him.

[Close enough that it counts as far as Lloyd is concerned. Man, how cool is it that he's found a friend who already lives by some of the Dwarven Vows?

He smiles again, offering Zack a thumbs up, and nothing more needs to be said. They both understand.]

You're right. He likes to talk to girls a lot. I don't think he'll hide long without talking to at least someone

[Zack returns that thumbs up with the seriousness fading from his eyes as his grin gets wider; finding a friend with the same kinds of values is always cause for being happy, as far as Zack is concerned.]

Then we just have to find that someone and go from there. You'll probably be knocking him upside the head by the end of the month, too.

[redcladidealist]

Good. He deserves it.

[He's feeling marginally better now. Still upset, but it's not as bad.]

You don't have to wait for me to hit him first, though. I already did once, so if you find him, go ahead.

[Having just a little trouble not laughing at the moment, Zack is.]

I'll remember you said that. Want me to drag him home if I find him?

[redcladidealist]

Hmm... [TEMPTING.] Nah, just tell me where he is. He might get the wrong idea if someone he doesn't know tries to drag him away.

[couldnotfly.livejournal.com]

[Blink. Blink.]

Yeah, and it would probably be a bad idea to give him the wrong idea. [Nod. Determined pup is determined!] I'll call you soon as I find him, then.

[redcladidealist]

Thanks, Zack. I appreciate it.
