20th Combo - [Voicemail to Mithos] [Video]

[redcladidealist]

[There is so much anxiety in Lloyd's face and voice when he makes the call to his friend. He needs to see Mithos, no matter what Zelos said.]

Mithos? Mithos, please pick up. It's Lloyd. Please... Just tell me you're all right.

[Oh. Lloyd stills for a moment, then hugs Mithos tighter, as though with a hug he can take every bit of pain and fear away. He hugs him so tight that it isn't Mithos clinging.

His arm aches, still fractured, but he ignores it.]

Don't worry, Mithos. I'm fine. I promise. Zelos healed me.

Zelos...



He took you away.

[redcladidealist]

What? What do you mean?

[He doesn't get it. He doesn't understand. He was unconscious, he didn't see what happened. He offers a reassuring smile, not realizing what's going on.]

He just took me home so he could heal me and I could rest. He wouldn't just leave me in the street.

[martelsnotpeach.livejournal.com]

No!



He picked you up and left. He flew away with you, despite anything I said...!

[redcladidealist]

[But it still doesn't make sense. In fact, it makes even less sense than before, when he thought he knew what was wrong. His smile fades as he searches Mithos's face.]

Flew away? How did-?

[No, that's not important. It's Mithos's anger and distress he should be thinking about instead. He speaks slowly, trying to piece everything together.]

What was wrong with that? Why didn't you want him to take me away?

[martelsnotpeach.livejournal.com]

Because he doesn't want us to be--



...because we don't like each other, Lloyd!

[redcladidealist]

[Lloyd blinks in surprise. He hadn't seen that coming at all.]

You don't? Why not?

[Wait. Lloyd gives Mithos a cautious, searching look. He doesn't like to bring this up, doesn't like to remind himself, but...]

He doesn't... know you're Yggdrasill, does he?

[martelsnotpeach.livejournal.com]

Of course he does.

[redcladidealist]

[And suddenly it now makes sense - or at least he thinks he knows what's going on.]

So, he thinks you're still our enemy. I'll have to talk to him...

[martelsnotpeach.livejournal.com]

No.

[redcladidealist]

Huh?

[Lloyd lifts his head, looking at Mithos.]

Why not?
