::There's a comfy couch out in the middle of the Nexus, and Schuldig's sitting there smoking on it. A mysterious couch in the middle of nowhere is so him he has to use it.::

::He's looking inward, not outward, and stubbing out his finished cigarettes in the big mouth of the goofy frog ashtray he has perched on one couch arm. If he's smoking, there are generally three possibilities:
1] He's with a smoker.
2] He's annoying a non-smoker.
3] He's stressed.

There's nobody sitting with him.::

((Aya can coddle and feed if she likes. To my amusement, I had this Brad thing in mind even before you started talking about him last night.))

Aya must have come to the Nexus directly from school. She is still wearing her uniform and has her backpack with her.

"Schuldig?" Worry. He doesn't look right. "Do you mind if I sit down?"

Good to know. Hope it lasts. Nagi's still bruised up. ::smoke:: Brad's gotten all complicated on me because of this whole war shit. I'm blaming you. Wanna sit?

Don't mind at all. I'll try to smoke downwind. Nice weather the Nexus is having, ja?

::Love is a big happy snake on your belly. Schuldig smiles a bit, unable to help himself. This is the kind of thing he comes to Nexus for, Brad.:: It's good to be able to sit out here in the open again. Lying low sucks.

Nobody's. It's not even Brad being bad, just... he's jealous of you and Farf here and hates feeling that way. He feels like he's not "providing" well enough for me and hates feeling that way too. The seduction he put on for me this morning...! He had it all going on: the pushed up sleeves, undone collar, loosened tie, rumpled hair... mmm. Drool. He went all out in the doing too....

But when the most certain guy in the world starts feeling reluctantly uncertain and not enough, it feels weird for me, even just from the small stuff I can pick up from his multi-time-stamped mind. ::smoke::

He was amused by the thing with the tank, though (http://tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com/22209.html), and didn't mind me messing with the guy's head about it all.

My partner in my own world doesn't like me putting my life on the line for what he calls my "quasi-imaginary friends" in the Nexus. We had a big talk about it, and he hates to talk about his feelings, so....

What brings you by my neck of the woods? With that Charm thing going I have no idea. It's like somebody turned me deaf. Really unpleasant.

*slowly slides the ring off and raises his eyebrows as if to say, "Yo, gesture of good faith, here."*

"Just wanted a Nagi update. We had a big talk last night."

"Glad he's not pissed about the tank. Think he'll get over the rest of it?"

Date: 2006-11-16 11:50 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com
I dunno. He's still getting used to the idea that he can't really stop me from coming here, that I'm getting some family feeling here I need that he can't give me, and that having access to the Nexus already saved my life once. I think I'm gonna have to work on him.

::Schu sighs happily. It's like suddenly reversing being crippled.:: Thank you.

He's mostly okay now. Still pissed about getting thrown around and hurt, still pissed that you threatened me considering I'm kind of his mother figure... but he's practical. He's a good kid, and he's a strong one. I'm trying to undo a lot of shit a lot of very evil people have done to him, but we all have trust issues, especially with people willing to beat us down.

But if you mean your word, we're good. I don't come to the Nexus to work or fight, I come to relax and socialize.

"Try pointing out that the Crawfords who showed up here weren't nearly as whatever as he is? You're more looking for the rest of your team, not a new him?"

"And if he does keep being weird, I can always hack his stocks." Nagi is perfectly willing to transfer his frustration with his Crawford to another one.

From: [identity profile] tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com
I totally mentioned that and made sure he knew that none of the Crawfords liked the Nexus or wanted to stick around, so he wouldn't get any ideas about trying to set up in the Nexus. Brad likes life as it is and enjoys being a big fish in a big world. Being a smaller fish in a chaotic multiverse full of polyamorous smartasses would not suit him.

Heh. I'll always keep that in mind.

"It's just hard for me to understand, ya' know? You guys are good to each other, but you're also some cold-blooded dudes."

"Don't get me wrong, my siblings were far worse, but they never showed affection. Most beings are simply killers or not killers. Most people who enjoy killin' don't have any tender affections. One kind of excludes the other. Sociopaths generally don't know what friends are."

Nagi snickers slightly. "It's not like he'd have to deal with more than one of you, but still good that he's being kept willing to only manipulate the hell out of one world."

Loyalty is what got us through the badness we had to live through under Rosenkreuz and Eszett. There was an us to fight against the them, and we had our pact that we would beat them and free ourselves.

Unfortunately, in my world, once we did that it started to fall apart and Farf and Nagi left. I still see Nagi sometimes but he's grown up and independent now. Left the nest. It's just me and Brad there now.

What I have here is my second chance at family, and I'm not gonna screw it up. And people are so much fun to talk to! If that makes me different from a sociopath, whatever.
