straying[At first, she's quiet for a little while. She opens her mouth as if she knew what to say before but now that the camera's rolling, she's second-guessing it. And so there's a pause before she starts talking.]
Matthew's gone.
[... and she looks a little confused, as if she never expected to say those words. They sound so foreign.]
... sheesh. Can he ever leave without causing me problems?
Well, now you know.
[A bit of a shrug and she ends the feed.]

How about you tell Phil that. Then maybe he'll cut me some slack.
A lot of people are heroes and don't even know it. Kinda like my old roommate Danny. He really helped me out of a tight spot.
[He takes another lick at his ice cream.] He left too, you know.

Date: 2010-12-02 11:56 pm (UTC)[And at the mention of someone leaving, she falters for a moment. She'd forgotten again. It was so easy to forget that he wasn't around anymore when she was with someone else.]
... hmph. Well, lucky them for getting out of here. I'm sure they're happy, if nothing else.
[She laughs.] I've heard more than enough times about things that people need to do once they get home and people they miss... Thinking that they're back with them now? Guess it makes dealing with it easier.

Date: 2010-12-03 12:38 am (UTC)I hope so.
[Action!]
Date: 2010-12-03 03:54 am (UTC)[He looks surprised.]
[Action!]
Date: 2010-12-03 03:57 am (UTC)I don't like people coming back after they leave. It seems very lazy and weak-willed. If he's out of my life now, I want him to stay out. It's easier for the both of us that way.
[... so why does it feel like she's still trying to convince herself?]
[Action!]
Date: 2010-12-03 03:59 am (UTC)[No, Saya... he doesn't sound convinced either.]
But still.
[He wants to say something, but he's not sure if he should.]
[Action!]
Date: 2010-12-03 04:00 am (UTC)Still...?
[Action!]
Date: 2010-12-03 04:04 am (UTC)[Action!]
Date: 2010-12-03 04:13 am (UTC)I don't think so. What's there to miss?
[Action!]
Date: 2010-12-03 04:15 am (UTC)[Action!]
Date: 2010-12-03 04:29 am (UTC)[A wise nod and a laugh.]
Yeah... I'll finally be alone for a while. No chance of him dropping by the apartment when he's bored or any of that.
[Action!]
Date: 2010-12-03 04:31 am (UTC)The one whose name you wouldn't tell me?
[Action!]
Date: 2010-12-03 04:33 am (UTC)[She laughs.]
That's the one. Matthew, the thief who wouldn't let me have a moment to myself while he was around.

Date: 2010-12-05 06:51 am (UTC)Matthew? Pffahaha, Sora, I'll give you credit since you didn't know him but... Matthew is not the type to get attached. And neither am I, hence why it's perfectly fine.

Date: 2010-12-05 07:13 pm (UTC)See, that's exactly what I don't like about this place.
[Action!]
Date: 2010-12-05 07:24 pm (UTC)[What's wrong with missing somebody who's gone?]

Date: 2010-12-05 07:36 pm (UTC)Maybe for everyone else, but I'm not supposed to stay in anyone's life for long. It sucks when you're left behind, and I know that from personal experience.
I never want to make anyone feel that way.
[Action!]
Date: 2010-12-06 12:59 am (UTC)That's kind of a sad way to think about it.
