tentatively voicetesting. x-posted to d_p. canon is gangsta.

[There is a smol child writing in the dirt, each stroke a deliberate, awkward thing. Some of the letters are backwards in the beginning, then frontways later on, and any letters previously correct flip to take their place! It's an awful game of somersaulting memory and poor spelling.]

[Once he's finally done, he irritably scrubs the back of his hand across his bruised cheek. The words read:]

WY AM I HEEЯ

Wallace. [The thought comes so fast that, if speaking didn't take such conscious effort, he would have accidentally said it aloud.] Wallace is my friend. I think. I want to see him.

[Images of a blond child his age springs to his mind--a rich kid with a bruised eye that matched Nic's at the time. A kid he's been assigned to as a body guard.]
messiahwithagun: (Not bad.)

Obscure canons can be difficult, but it could happen. Worse comes to worse, pop your head on here every now and then. Just in case. Plus, glass half full, even if he never shows up? By then, you'd've likely made a friend or two anyway. Even if it never comes to a game, it's better than raw monotony.

I don't know if I can make friends. Not on my own. Do you know how?
messiahwithagun: (Okay. I'll bite.)

[personal profile] messiahwithagun 2016-10-20 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think you have to know how. Sometimes you can try rather pretty hard to be someone's friend, and they aren't interested. And other times, you can be a complete ass to try and get a potential friend off your back, and before you know it... They're the one that becomes your best friend.

[ Smol child please don't ask Yoshiya Fucking Kiryu how to friend, he's really really bad at it. ]

[Mulling that over, Nic grabs the knees of his crossed legs and leans to the side. Hmmm. He leans the other way. HMMM.

Note that the HMMMs are silent and implied.]

I think I get it. Anyone you don't kill or who doesn't want to kill you can be your friend.

[It is the blind leading the deaf.]
messiahwithagun: (A text? At a time like this?)

[personal profile] messiahwithagun 2016-10-20 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Well. That... Actually can depend very strongly on the game in question.
messiahwithagun: (Okay. I'll bite.)

If you ever get into one, that is.
killsign: (And I thought that I might never)

Oh. [so easily fooled] OK. I'll try. I think . . . what makes Wallace my friend is that we both tried. And we were lonely. There are a lot of lonely people out there, probably.
messiahwithagun: (Oh I can't help myself. You know that.)

[personal profile] messiahwithagun 2016-10-20 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I think more people are lonely than are willing to admit it, even to themselves. People can become friends for really bizarre reasons. I don't think you have to try so hard.

Even so, Nic, I do hope your friend shows up someday. Waiting for so long for an uncertainty can't be easy.

I won't hope. [It's not despairing. Just a fact.] I can't afford to wait. But I will look.

. . . What was your name again?
messiahwithagun: (Buuut of course I'd NEVER do that...)

[personal profile] messiahwithagun 2016-10-21 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
Joshua.

And to be honest, that's the suggestion I'd give. Personally, I wouldn't get your hopes up. But there's still no point in letting them die altogether. You really never know.

You never know . . . I'll post a lot, then. Will you be posting a lot, too?
messiahwithagun: (You sneaky thing.)

[personal profile] messiahwithagun 2016-10-21 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
Mmm, not posting. Too much effort.

But I'll keep an eye out for you all the same.
killsign: (And I thought that I might never)

[personal profile] killsign 2016-10-21 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
[the smolest suggestion of a smile]

Okay. I'll look for you, too.
messiahwithagun: (Not bad.)

[personal profile] messiahwithagun 2016-10-21 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
Good. See you around~
