[002] [action] closing shift

[complexing]

[After this thread, Touya has gone flying off into the forest despite the snow and cold weather. He can't stand to stay in the same house as Yue at the moment, so he's flown off to stay in the forest by himself. Just until Yue comes around. He would remember soon enough, wouldn't he?]

[Well, it's been a few days and his love hasn't come to bring him home yet. At least his own affinities were the same as Yue's, so he wasn't dying of frostbite or starving. He is, however, doing a marvelous job of sulking which isn't at all like him. He's curled his large black wings around him to shield him from the snow and create a small fort-like shelter.]

[Yue would come find him. He just had to stay away long enough and the other guardian would figure it out.]

[...this is getting ridiculous.

Yue had been quite certain that, if left alone, Touya (or the reasonable facsimile thereof) would return home when he was ready to do so like a cat in a tree. And so he'd ignored his absence, going about his routine with the notable exception of allowing Yukito out. Somehow he just... doesn't want Yukito to see this. It's easier to keep him sheltered from certain realities of this place.

Still, after a couple of days and not even a glimpse of Touya, Yue finally gives a frustrated sigh and goes in search of him. He isn't exactly difficult to find, especially with the black wings against the snow, but the guardian doesn't dare approach too close with the memory of their last conversation clear in his mind. Instead he settles to rest on a broad branch of a tree nearby, watching the... rather altered young man with narrowed eyes.

Why is he acting like this, Yue wants to ask. What exactly happened, why are the Malnosso doing this, and when will it end. But none of the questions are likely to be ones Touya can or would answer, and so he remains silent.]
