lovely silence, i bid thee farewell.

This place is like one giant party that never stops, whether it's good or bad.

[says this boy in an overly large black tee that reads, 'Remember kids, it's okay to stop breathing when no one likes you' on the front. in one hand is a juice box, while the other is situated on the wall he's leaning his back against.]

You're a funny kid.

[switchedblade.livejournal.com]

[and now he's blushing.]

Thanks. I think.

[torpid.livejournal.com]

[and now he's leaning in to get a close inspection, a hand tilting Roku's chin up.]

[switchedblade.livejournal.com]

[freezes up. does not compute at ALL.]

[torpid.livejournal.com]

[so while he's two inches away from his face, he poses a question.]

Do you 'like' the Riku you know?

[switchedblade.livejournal.com]

[he's totally going to misinterpret the question.]

H-he's big bro, of course I like him-!

[torpid.livejournal.com]

You sure act like a horny schoolgirl rather than a brother.

[pulls back.]

[switchedblade.livejournal.com]

Do I look horny to you?!

[to be fair, he really doesn't.]

[torpid.livejournal.com]

I meant in terms of how much you blush when I'm not even saying anything worth being embarrassed about.

[switchedblade.livejournal.com]

It's not like I get complimented left and right, smartass.

[torpid.livejournal.com]

Like I do? You're lucky you caught me on a good day.

[switchedblade.livejournal.com]

Well excuuuuuse me, princess.

[torpid.livejournal.com]

It's not my fault you're making me out to be some sort of godly figure. I'm not.

[switchedblade.livejournal.com]

Why not? Just 'cause you aren't big bro doesn't mean you're not you.

[torpid.livejournal.com]

I told you. The only thing people care about is how good I play the piano.

[switchedblade.livejournal.com]

So?

[torpid.livejournal.com]

So that doesn't mean I'm a hot shot. People barely come to our cafe because it's not some big corporate logo.

[switchedblade.livejournal.com]

[now Roku's giving himself away--]

Well I think you are, so cram it.

[torpid.livejournal.com]

I think someone has a crush on their brother.

[switchedblade.livejournal.com]

[sp-sputter.]

[torpid.livejournal.com]

[triumphant grin goes here.]

[switchedblade.livejournal.com]

Take that back!

[torpid.livejournal.com]

Why? It's true.

[switchedblade.livejournal.com]

Says who!

[torpid.livejournal.com]

Says your reaction. It's plain as day, don't deny it. Only little kids admire their brothers that much.
