[ There's no response for a few minutes, which probably isn't exactly the best time for Gin. She had not expected this. She heard he was in prison before her concert, so she knew going in that he wouldn't be able to make it. She was disappointed - moreso than she's willing to admit to herself - but she doesn't blame him for it. She was just giving him shit and getting him back for opening up with accusations when he texted her a couple of weeks ago - though, in her case, she was using it as a cover for checking up on him because she was worried about him. (Nico that's exactly what he was doing too.)

She doesn't feel bad for it, however bad Gin is feeling, because honestly it takes a lot to make Nico feel guilty about giving people shit. But she is feeling too emotional to reply right away. She doesn't get a lot of positive acknowledgement of her passion, particularly as directly as this, and she really wasn't expecting it coming from Gin.

It's not like she doesn't have people supporting her. Her concert earlier in the day was even moderately successful, with a decently sized crowd mixed between actual fans and people curious about this different style of performance. She has other members from ALASTAIR earnestly supporting her, both backstage and in the crowd. But the other members of μ's aren't here. On stage, she's alone and sometimes, it reminds her of how it was before she joined μ's. Things looked promising at one point then, too, but it hadn't lasted.

It would have been nice to have someone tell her they could see it in who she was back then. ]

[ Eventually, once her emotions are back under control, she does reply. ]

Of course I performed well! ☆
The great Nico-ni wouldn't settle for anything less. ♥
But you're smarter than I thought if you can pick up on my idol aura like that that...... ♡

All right, then! I'll accept your apology. ♡
As long as you have a good excuse, of course. ☆
They're saying some people got caught up in some kind of trouble, after all.

hey
i heard u got thrown in the slammer w/ everyone else

you okay?

Where have you gone? Come back this instant. I won't be happy if you come in late.

_{[ Here is text #3. If he doesn't be careful, he could really get in trouble. But to confirm to these people that he is still alright— though significantly starved at this point— it is worth the risk. What do you even say when you're on death row? The last time he was on death row, he didn't have anybody to communicate with other than the people who tormented him— trying to get answers out of him in regards to what he knew as a samurai. A samurai, whose occupation was illegal— somebody who was a criminal.

Gintoki lifts the watch up and thinks out a message in response to the best of his ability: ]}
alice-san,
you don't have to worry about me coming back late.

i will return when i mean to.
for now, save me some cookies.

I'll save you cookies, Mr. Gin, but that doesn't tell me when you'll return.

_{[ He didn't expect Ranmaru to send him a text, but when he gets a notification on his watch, he curls his back towards everyone in his small corner to communicate with her. ]}

rin-san,
it is a bit cold here and there is a rock up my ass.
the breakfast is terrible and im pretty sure i saw a cockroach or two.
overall i give this place a 0/0 stars.
i'm going to call the manager.
_{[ you're lucky that is the only complaining. ]}

i don't know when i will.
but i will.

i promise you.
a pinky swear.

What has happened, are you alright?

_{[ It doesn't sound like she knows about where he is at like Ranmaru does. Did the word not spread across the groups of people? He can't just so easily tell her where he is at— he can't. This has already happened once.

There's a pause, then the next message appears: ]}
oiii oii
don't act so worried. gin-san has just taken a long
scenic route to get back to the inn.

it's not anything that i haven't done before.
_{[ funny part is, that's true. ]}

hey i didn't know i had a mother here.
calm down, mom.
_{[ he would say where have you been all my life but that's a bit sad. ]}

[Definitely nothing like Gil's response, that's for sure.]

lol
gin-san...
prison arcs are tough
it's somethin a main character cant get out of
they gotta rely on others for it
so just sit tight a little while longer
ur doin great

[IF NOONE COMES UP WITH A PLAN SHE'LL PUNCH HER WAY IN.]

It's not very nice to lie, Mr. Gin.

[ She's glad that he can't see her crying right now when he teases her by calling her "mom". ]

i'll be there.
it just might take awhile.

i'll be there because it is people like you and everyone else that will help me.
find my way back.
i have faith in you all.

where i am at.
it is only temporary.

Where is it? Where are you being held that's temporary? I can find you right now.

i was simply at the wrong place at the wrong time.
and that's where i am right now.

i am behind bars. this is a place i've belonged to before and probably where i should stay...
but not today. not when there are other things i have to do.
for you, for everyone else, for this entire place.

i will be at the inn when i am able to.

_{[ that's because Gilgamesh is being a weenie right now. ]}
prison arcs are stupid and overly used.
this will all blow over.

especially since the real heroes of this arc are going to be coming soon.
it's your time to shine, rin-san.
you with everyone else.

_{[ There she goes– spreading cheer when she probably isn't feeling her sincere, best, 100%. That is what an idol needs to do, after all, that despite disappointments, to carry on and be cheerful.

Anyway, he doesn't know if Nico knows what happened, and he isn't even certain if she would actually be worried about where he is at. Best to avoid it, for now. ]}

what are they saying?

_{[ A penance and not very good at it. I don't always feel well.

Gintoki can associate, in a way, with what she is saying. Gintoki rolls up from lying down to a seated position, watching Alice in the chair dully and wordlessly. She's suffering. Something about her is suffering— Gintoki wondered if sometimes he looked this way to other people and he hopes that the doesn't.

Finally, he gets up and walks over to the chair, placing a firm hand on Alice's shoulder. Then, he crouches, so now he is eye level with her in the seat. ]}

There is always a way of escape with whatever obstacles you face. You just gotta be stronger. Nobody said that was easy, either... but it's unreachable if you don't even try. Don't let anything stop you— not even yourself— from doing what you believe is right and what you know you should do.

You're wrong, you don't belong in there. You have done nothing wrong. I'll see to it that you're out of there quicker.

this is why no one invites you to things!!
what would your girlfriend think
seriously

[ That almost sounds a little like what her father would say. Encouragement is one thing, but the physical gesture of it is another. Alice, who is so unused to touch and comfort visibly flinches from his hand. As much as she dislikes touch and she has already violently lashed out against Ban and Gilgamesh for touching her, Alice refrains from the knee jerk urge of kicking him away.

Once she realizes he's not making a motion to harm her, she can breathe, just a little. Though, Alice remains very tense, her green eyes boring into him, waiting for the slightest sign that the gesture is going to be anything but kind.

It's been a while since someone has touched her for the sake of comfort, and not the other way around. Nervously glancing her eyes back down to her book, Alice nods. She doesn't have a lot of faith in herself, but she can't tell him that. ]

I will try. I will make amends with my errors.

_{[ Gintoki doesn't even think or dare to do anything harmful to his friend. Her words— they remind him of what he says to himself over and over in his mind. He does good to maybe redeem the feeling of wrong that he still has lingering in his golden heart.

His hand removes from his shoulder and he gives her a warm smile. ]}

I know you will.
_{[ —make amends of your errors, but you're free to interpret that as 'I know you will at least try' if you so wish.

Gintoki stands up again and turns around to head back to the floor, arms stretching before releasing a loud yawn. ]}

That said, I gotta go piss.

_{[ just who he wants to hear from.. ]}
people don't invite me to things because they have poor taste.
especially if you got an invitation.

_{[ You can say that he's done nothing wrong until your face is blue, but that isn't going to change his mind. ]}
i am in no hurry. _{[ nevermind the fact he is on death row. ]}

i would like it if you didn't do that.
it is not because i am faithless in you, but i have seen what these people do.

and you don't need to be apart of it.

Edited 2015-11-30 06:29 (UTC)

[ He's mostly just glad to see a response. And Gintoki doesn't sound particularly down in the dumps—at least, not enough to be able to resist picking a fight with Bolin. ]

you showed up anyway!!
at least you'll feel right at home peeing in public
