How have you been faring?

[An awkward start to what is sure to be an awkward conversation. But what is he supposed to say? “I realized your son that I can’t stand is gone and I’m entirely unsure of how that might affect you but wish to express my concern as your friend”?

[Well, actually, that doesn’t not sound like something D33 would say. Still.]

[hellrisen02]

Alive.

[Dad being short probably tells him what he needs to know. Still...... it could be worse. The kid was back in his own element. If he was going to die, he'd rather it have been in their own mess, which he chose to involve himself in, than this endless cycle of rebirth and suffering that Lachesis draws them into.]

For now anyway. If anyone asks? You don't know where I am. I suppose you might have seen the news recently...

[d33tached]

I have.

Were you involved somehow, Shinigami?

[hellrisen02]

I'll let you use the ol' noggin on this one.

[d33tached]

[There's a bit of a pause between messages.]

Very well, then.

There are few that know of our connection either way. I know nothing.

[hellrisen02]

Good glad we cleared that up.

How's KK doing?

[d33tached]

Kaneki is fine.

Are you in need of any assistance, Shinigami?

[Wow. He sure did gloss over his boyfriend in favor of your well-being pretty fast.]

[hellrisen02]

Oh I guess there's two of them now huh.

Awkward!

Okay, how about the other one?

[THE GOOD CHILD, Deedee.]

[d33tached]

Other one?

What are you talking about?

What "other one"?

[hellrisen02]

Damn, it's like that, huh?

Nevermind, I'll message her myself.

I'm good, I'm a big boy that can take care of himself.

[He's drunk and sad and it's only gonna get worse as his birthday passes into Valentine's. Happy fuckin' holidays.]

[d33tached]

Is it K31 that you are speaking of?

With all of your ridiculous names, how am I supposed to tell the difference?

It's like what?

[hellrisen02]

Christ.

Nevermind.

Anyway, I'm going to be on the move. Don't expect me to meet you in the same place. I'll leave new coordinates the night of.

I expect you're gonna be a little busy on our usual night anyway, eh? Let's give it a few days vacation then, so I can make sure I'm not being tailed and you can get your get on.

[d33tached]

I don't think I like what you're implying.

[Or does he?]

[hellrisen02]

When has that ever stopped me?

[d33tached]

[S I G H.]

I will await your instructions.

[hellrisen02]

Okie-dokie!

Did you have anything else you wanted to ask about?



Hey, Deedee. When's your birthday?

[d33tached]

[What a bizarre, non-sequitur thing to ask.]

I don't have a birthday.

Why do you ask?

[Surely he must have assumed as much.]

[hellrisen02]

Not even one you've picked? Jeez you sticks in the mud are all the same. Can't pick a name, can't pick a birthday...

Okay, here's your homework: pick a birthday for yourself, and you let me know. Any day in the year. Okay?

But you gotta pick one!

[Does not answer the question]

[d33tached]

[You're not the first person to have told him that, but for you, he just might actually do it--]

Why?

Is a birthday not meant to celebrate the day that you were born? I haven't the faintest idea of which day I was born.

[hellrisen02]

That's right

So for those of us that don't know, picking one of our own means we make sure to have one day that we can stop and remember to be thankful that we're alive, right?

So you better pick one!

[d33tached]

[But--]

Are you planning something with regard to this?

I will not tolerate any parties.

[hellrisen02]

Not a matter of whether you're tolerating it, Deedee.

[d33tached]

Did Archie put you up to this?

[hellrisen02]

?? I hardly talk to that dude, but good to know he's got the important stuff in mind!

I'll think about having him harass you about it too. Unless you wanna just cooperate...

[d33tached]

If you insist that I must choose a "birthday" for myself despite it not being the day that I was born, might I simply do so without inviting any sort of celebration regarding the matter?

I don't want a party.
