FROM: hinata.shouyou@cdc.org We were kind of friends. We hung out. He helped me once.
[as most people had, and as most people do. not like Hibari, though: most people looked at him with pity or fear. Hibari had praised - hadn't questioned, either, when shown Hinata's weakness. kind of friend or not, he had been appreciated.]
[the past tense wasn't intentional - it simply was.]
[blunt:]
FROM: hinata.shouyou@cdc.org Can you explain why he kept fighting Nic?
hibari... really likes fighting if he meets someone he thinks is a really good fighter hed always try and fight with them or challenge them even if they say no he keeps asking
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
i think nic was one of those people? i never saw them together but it feels like it he wouldn't fight just anyone he told me nic was already bleeding when he found him
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
but the first thing nic asked him to do was fight him so they fought
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
it's kind of like when a little kid really wants a toy but the adult keeps saying no until they finaly say yes?
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
he wouldn't have fought in the first place if nic didn't ask him to not like that
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
i think they understood each other a lot more than i do him it goes a lot deeper
[unseen: quiet, watchful eye as the replies roll in, Hinata frozen in trepidation and residual anger. the latter sparks at the last, or what he thinks is the last - he waits, breath held, for an extra few seconds --- but it is, or so it seems, and so:]
[- what was Tsuna implying? it made him nervous, under the fury. the two brewed together as hysteria.]
FROM: hinata.shouyou@cdc.org Wanted what? The fight?
i trust hibari he wouldn't lie that's what he said
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
he.... didn't want help, when he collapsed either. i think thats what i got i dont know how to understand why nic did it all in the first place but it's all i know
FROM: hinata.shouyou@cdc.org Only sick people are like that.
[it isn't a denial.]
[more should follow, but -- more doesn't. Hinata stares at the blinking cursor, mind a whir and gaze unfocused. words always drew shorter during these moments; Tsuna, fortunately, didn't seem to be an exception.]
[the notion is there. it had good business being there, given the fact that it could be true -- knee-jerk denial would wear down, and when it did, rather than be left bereft, Hinata would think of what Tsuna said.]
[was it better than wondering?]
[after a long pause,]
FROM: hinata.shouyou@cdc.org Yea. If he does, we'll know.
