Level 4: Two Books [RD 16]

[shiromadoushi]

[[Bakura's in the library of the Hero's Headquarters, looking a touch befuddled.]]

Does anyone know where these books came from? [[Holds up a pair of old looking books, neither of them labeled. One of them has a simple lock on it.]]

I can't find a key for this one, and this... [[he sets down the locked book to open the unlocked one, opening it to a page that has the day written on top of it, followed by smaller writing that's hard to read from the orb]]

It looks like a journal of sort... but this is today's date. And it has what was posted on the news board written in it.

My brother.

[That one's immediate. The image of his smiling face makes Sasuke hurt more, though, and he shoves his face in the pillow, smoldering.

Muffled.] Onigiri filled with tomato and skipjack tuna.

[shiromadoushi]

[[There's a very soft, almost sad smile at that first response. Yeah, he knows that feeling. His misses his adoptive family too.]]

I can't do anything to replace him... but I can make you some onigiri later. I've gotten the kitchen cleaned up enough to actually be usable.

[bondsoflove]

[Looking up at the orb with venom.] Don't bother. You'll ruin it.

[shiromadoushi]

[[blinks]] By not making it how you remember it, you mean?

[bondsoflove]

[Yup.] Sullying my mother's recipe and memory. They aren't Uchiha tomatoes. [That is to say, tomatoes grown in the Uchiha complex.]

[shiromadoushi]

[[nods. He can sort of understand that.]]

Then I won't try to.

[bondsoflove]

Good. Now fuck off.

[The orb goes dark.]
