sewdamncute | [Video/Action] First Stitch, revisited ℵ

Video
[The journal opens up when Kanji's foot tips it over. The camera shows the tree tops, leaves dark and green with tiny splotches of a blue sky showing through. The voice of an irate male is heard shouting at the top of his lungs at no one in particular.]

Can't believe I'm back here with these dumb ass wings. The fuck is wrong with these stupid bastards that they can't leave me back home where things are finally calm?! It's Golden Week!

And why the hell are these wings so...pink? Do I look like a dude who wears pink?

[And suddenly, Kanji's very angry face is in front of the camera. It's obvious that he's in the New Feather pants and no shirt. He really doesn't look like a guy who should even know what the color pink is, let alone wear it.

His grey eyes go wide before a slight blush shows on his cheeks.]

Fuck!

[And then the journal is slammed shut.]

Action
[Later, when he's dressed in his normal clothes, Kanji can be found looking for a place to stay, since he already knows how Luceti works. After finding an apartment, he's going grocery shopping and stopping off to get some supplies to occupy his time.

He'll also stop off at Seventh Heaven for dinner and to see who's working there. He stops off at the school and Azalea to check in with his former teacher. He would like to see when the school is back in session.]

Huh...

[So it seems like this guy is one of the youngest in his group and the tallest. Life just isn't fair.]

So this "group" a' yours, is it like a gang?

[He can't help but wonder. After all, this guy seems to think like him and is involved in similar trouble, so maybe they have even more in common.]

[He's the baby. Everyone in the group is older than him. Except for Teddie, but they don't even really know what Teddie is.]

Not...really? We're just a group of friends that met because of this dumb case. We hang out at the local food court.

Oh.

[Yeah, he was way off the mark. This guy even looks a little like he could be an enforcer; he has a face like the very fearsome Berga...]

Uh, sorry. I just gotta wonder, you know? Sucks they bother kids like you.

[Kanji can't help his face. Despite the way he looks, he's definitely a good kid.]

Y-yeah, I guess. I mean, all the rest of my friends stay outta trouble. Cops just bugged me. Not so much anymore though.

'Cause they owe you now?

Uh, no, because if they try that shit now, Dojima-san hands 'em their asses. It's kinda funny to watch, honestly.

Who's he? Another friend a' yours?

Uh, not really. He's Yu-senpai's uncle and the senior detective for the police force. He's alright, for a cop.

Never thought I'd hear that. What'd he do when all that crazy stuff was happenin'?

Yeah, not everyone's a fuck up. But he was tryin' his damnedest to actually find out who was behind all this shit. Turned out to be his useless subordinate. But, you know, he was doin' his job, unlike the rest of the force, from what Senpai told me.

A guy right under his nose, huh? Musta' sucked to find that out.

[But that's what you get working with guys like that. Firo's confident that no one in his Family would betray the others.]

I guess so. He had other things on his mind at the time. Nearly died in a car accident 'bout a month before we found the guy responsible.

[Of course, that was like three months before the group had to come face to face with Izanami, the Shinto Goddess of Death. Loooooooooooooong story.]

So? If it was a whole month ago, who cares?

He nearly died, dude. He was still in the hospital.

Nearly, you said. People have brushes with death all the time--you can't let that rattle you for a month.

[...Firo's more than a little insensitive when it comes to this stuff.]

I ain't a doctor, man. He was still in pretty bad shape. Not related to the guy, so the hospital staff didn't tell me shit. Only told Senpai that he was supposed to recover. 'Course, the old dude wouldn't stay put and kept aggrevatin' old wounds and shit.

But, I mean, it sounds like he was fine eventually?

[If he could move around, why not?]

Well, yeah, he got better, but that was after we caught the real perp.

[He nods along, thinking back to what Kanji's already said about the case.]

Huh. Bet that kinda soured the whole deal.

Yeah, he wasn't too happy about the way things fell out, but what the hell was he gonna do about it?

[Kanji scoffs at the mere thought of what happened.]

Somehow, Senpai managed to convince that useless fuck to confess to the murders he committed, instead of letting some crazy shithead take the blame.

He was gonna let someone else take the fall? What an asshole.

He was gonna let this crazy kid a year older than me take the fall for it, but the police couldn't find any proof he hadn't done anything but kill this teacher'd been bullying everybody at school.

Then there was this guy who...pretty much went crazy when the asshole cop killed his girlfriend first.

[Adachi is an asshole, okay? No one likes him.]

What the hell?! Either a' those people'd be justified in tearin' the bastard to pieces.

The kid was just tryin' to get noticed, so I guess Adachi did his ass a favor.

[Freaking crazy psycho.]

The other guy... He was...pretty fucked up in the head too. Probably best he didn't know anything till later.

Can you really call him the crazy one..?
