百三十七; 「accidental video 」

[Oh, look, it came on again. Sasuke's outside, beating rocks into smaller rocks. You know, to use for his home made training weights. It's easier to take out his frustration with everything this way than going out to do something stupid. Though, his knuckles are bleeding as he does this, so it might as well be considered a little stupid too.

He's got two piles. One of useable, small rocks, and a second of...dirt and rocks that didn't make the cut. Rocks he took things out on too much.

When the feed finally shows Sasuke's face, one can see, well. His face. He's exhausted. Tired. He's been doing this for a while, but that's not the cause of it. He hasn't slept much since Zuko was killed. Didn't want to chance the nightmares.

With another loud crunch, and another small cloud of dust flying, Sasuke lets out a curse.]


Out of rocks.

...Their heads are thicker than a few rocks.

Just don't break Zuko's jaw. It would be bothersome to have to deal with that right after he returns.

[He's quiet for a few minutes before finally focusing on Sasuke's knuckles.]

Are you going to get those looked at?

At least clean off the blood.

[Frownyface.]

If it gets infected, I suppose we'll know why.

[That frown morphs into something noticeably less comical.]

What, Sasuke?

[He turns away again, his shoulders allowing for more slack as he studies the cave.] ...I was waiting for a "Bite me."

[Damn it. This is hopeless. Hitsugaya could keep trying, but that would only succeed in shutting Sasuke up further. He's obviously not the one Sasuke needs to talk to.

Running a hand through his hair in frustration, he comes to a quick decision and pushes himself to his feet. Sasuke probably needs time alone. So if he's not going to use the rocky terrain surrounding the cave, Hitsugaya might as well do it instead.

You need rocks.

[It's the only answer he gives as he makes his way inside, withdrawing Hyourinmaru from its sheath as he does so.]

[He's not sure what else to do. Normally he'd simply sit there with Sasuke in silence outsidethe cave, but that's not as easy for him anymore, when his mind automatically wanders places it shouldn't. This at least affords him some surface distraction. Hopefully it's what Sasuke wants. He knows the other boy won't just clarify with no reason to, so all he can do is take some form of action and hope for the best.

Hyourinmaru, laced with reiatsu, slices jaggedly through a boulder, and Hitsugaya begins systematically repeating the swing, forming larger and larger cracks as pieces begin to give way.

[Hitsugaya will go on until the entire boulder is a pile of little rocks if no one stops him, not that that's necessarily a bad thing.]

[It takes some time to finish the deed, but when he finally does he plops back down at Sasuke's side. He only says one thing.]

If you want them, you can carry them.
