四十; 「accidental video post」

[saucey]

[The feed clicks on and Sasuke can be seen thrashing, bound to bed. He's trying to break his binds, although it's made difficult with his wrist bound as well. He's obviously not happy, and yelling obscenities left and right.]

Dammit, Toushirou! Get your fucking ass back here!

Elric! Hyuuga! This isn't fucking funny!

...Get off me.

[His voice is still shaking, and he's on the verge of hyperventilating.]

[Al complies, sitting on the bed beside him, his back to him, staring down at his hands.]

Sorry.

I'm just... I don't want... anyone else to die, Sasuke.

How do you think I feel!?

[His voice cracks and breaks, and he clenches his teeth to keep anything else from coming out. He's still shaking, and he turns away now, letting his bangs hide his face from view. He's trying not to let all of his emotions out, but it's hard when he's this unstable.]

Dammit...

[Al doesn't attempt to stop him. He knows about the bond between sensei and student. Izumi was like a second mother to him. If he'd ever watched her die, and then be used, like this... he can't say he wouldn't have nearly the same reaction.

He sets a hand on Sasuke's arm, not saying anything, not really looking at him, but letting him know he's there.]

He'll come back. I know it.

[He doesn't say anything else, he's just... having a little difficulty breathing properly at the moment. It doesn't help that his face suddenly got itself wet either.]

[It's okay, it must be raining a little. Have a little rub of Al's thumb.]

He'll pop right back up, stroll back here, and wonder what all the ruckus is about.

In fact he's probably fine right now, just taking his time.

H-Hn...

[Have a small hair-ruffle, and the incidental use of Al's sleeve to wipe that face-wetness, since Sasuke doesn't have his hands.]

[saucey]

[Sasuke didn't move. He let Al wipe them away, but shifted just slightly to cover his face even more. He didn't want to be seen like this. It was pitiful.]

'm fine, Al...
