[Isi is walking down the hall, heading in the direction of his room. he's not looking away from the bundle in his arms; it's bloody, and looks to be a t-shirt. what it's wrapped around is made pretty obvious by the limp, blood-stained lizard tail hanging out from the cloth. he's planning on burying the iguana in the room he'd built its house in.]

*look who you're going to run into, who looks equally surprised by the bundle in your arms*

ISI?! What happened?!

[isirocks.livejournal.com]

[doesn't look up, but he does slow to a stop. when he speaks, his voice is... pretty hollow.]

Some Marluxia was pretending to be nice, made a bunch of cupcakes. I made the mistake of giving him a chance and I ended up drugged with an aphrodisiac. Shredder was trying to save me because I was so stupid.

*he hurriedly pulls you into a hug, being careful of Shredder, then his whole body freezes when he actually hears what you said*

................... Marluxia.

[isirocks.livejournal.com]

[doesn't say anything, not really reacting to the hug besides leaning into it slightly.]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*his voice is very tight and controlled, though it might not be obvious, since he's trying to give you a comforting smile*

Come along now. We'll... bury Shredder properly. He... he has a good chance of coming back, you know.

[isirocks.livejournal.com]

Was gonna put him by his house.

[hugs the bundle, cringing when one of the pieces move.]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*he rubs your back gently, then guides you quietly towards Shredder's house, trying to be as careful as possible so you don't notice the Darkness and rage building up inside of him*

That's a good place. He likes it there.

[isirocks.livejournal.com]

[if he notices, he's not saying anything. right now, the only thing he's really concentrated on is Shredder.]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*that's okay... here is Shredder's little house, and he will stand quietly in front of it*

Do... do you want me to help you dig?

[isirocks.livejournal.com]

Sure.

[he should... probably set the bundle down or something, if he's going to dig, but... he doesn't want to let go.]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*he notices that and quietly gets to digging as quickly as possible so you don't have to, using his hands, and then a trowel he manages to find in the greenery*

Do you have anything to say to Shredder?

[isirocks.livejournal.com]

[shakes his head silently. he's already said what he wanted to.]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*he makes sure the grave is deep enough then stands up, putting a hand on your shoulder in support*

Alright. Say... say goodbye now, Isi.

[Austin sees that bloody mess of a t-shirt and sadfaces.]

What happened?

[isirocks.livejournal.com]

Someone killed my iguana.

[blankly. unless Austin is standing directly in front of him, he's going to keep going.]

[juniorfryer.livejournal.com]

[Nope, just walking alongside him.]

I'm sorry... do you want help burying him?

[isirocks.livejournal.com]

[just shrugs, continuing down the hall.]

[juniorfryer.livejournal.com]

[He'll just follow along silently then, his hands in his pockets. Maybe Isi will need a distraction after Shredder is taken care of.]

[isirocks.livejournal.com]

[probably, yeah. enters the room next to his own, which is some sort of garden, and heads for the wooden housething he'd built for Shredder.]

[juniorfryer.livejournal.com]

[Stays in the doorway to give him some space.]

[isirocks.livejournal.com]

[mechanically goes about digging a spot big enough and sets the bundle down into the hole, then just... stops, staring down at it.]

[juniorfryer.livejournal.com]

Pets come back too.

[Gives him a sad smile.]

[isirocks.livejournal.com]

[looks over at him, trying to blink back the fresh wave of tears.]

Are you sure?

[juniorfryer.livejournal.com]

I think it works the same as it does for humans.

[Leans against the doorway.]

[isirocks.livejournal.com]

[looks back down at the bundle, then slowly starts covering it.]
