Rooftops and Sunlight

[momiji]

((This started in dark hallways, but they seem to be so much more dramatic, that our cuteness may rub the wrong way. Kisa, get ovah heyah!))

"Well, do you want to go somewhere else, then? I don't have to go back to class for a while. What do you wanna do, Kisa?"

Momiji smiled. It'd be nice to let Kisa think for herself. People boss her around too much.

[Kisa Sohma]

(I'll just let my last post on the other one fall.)
Kisa smiled at Momiji.
"We can stay here. It's nice up here." She looked at the veiw again and sat down, leaning against the door once again. She patted the ground next to her, motioning for Momiji to sit down.
"It's beautiful." She said, pointing at the view.

[momiji]

Momiji gladly accepted the invitation. He plopped down beside her, speading his legs straight out before him and leaning against the wall. He relaxed for a while and smiled, "You're right. It's great out here. Are you sure you aren't too cold? I have a jacket in my class, and I could---" he thought about the number of coppers waiting for his return, "actually, no, I can't really fetch it. But if it's too cold, let me know okay? We can always go home early." With that and a final smile Momiji tilted his head up to gaze at the slowly drifting clouds.

Pointing suddenly he laughed, "That one looks like a rabbit! And that one over there, it's a tiger! See it?! Hey, maybe the whole zodiac is up there!"

((I need to go soon, but I have about 15 min. When I stop posting it's safe to assume I left ))

[Kisa Sohma]

(k!)
Kisa looked at the sky, but couldn't find the rabbit or the tiger that Momiji tried to point out. Instead, she saw a dragon and a snake.
"I'm a little cold, but it's okay. I enjoy it." She said.

[momiji]

Momiji smiled again. He let some time go by before he said anything else. "How's school going?" he asked off-handedly.

((Food's up. Back in a few))

[Kisa Sohma]

Kisa's smile drifted, waivered, and fell.
"Not good. The kids still tease me."

[momiji]

Momiji fell silent once again. When he finally spoke, it was little more than a whisper, "That's to be expected, isn't it? Habits are hard to change." He thought for a moment, "But you know what's important? You're different. You've faced this situation before, and then you fell into darkness. But then she came along..." Momiji smiled, his eyes looked distant, "She came and smiled, and listened. She cried for you, and held you until you stopped crying. She accepted us." Momiji turned back to Kisa looking her in the eye, "and that makes all the difference. You have us, Kisa..." Momiji put his hand on Kisa's shoulder, "...and we're not going anywhere."

Momiji knew his words wouldn't change anything, but he didn't want Kisa to be depressed. Now isn't the time to tell her my latest jokes, I think. he decided wisely.

[Kisa Sohma]

Kisa nodded. It was true. Tohru had helped a lot. Kisa looked at the sky and saw an airplane flying by.
"Look!" She whispered to Momiji. She waved at the airplane.
(Sorry, I'm being lazy today)

[momiji]

Momiji waved as well, "Just think, all those people are soaring through the air, either on vacation, business, or just for the joy of flight! I wonder if---" a sharp pain shot across his stomach.

((Aktio-sama plays that as he dies we suffer. Check out the board, it's kinda funny.))

"Yowch! I think that meatball sandwich I ate isn't sitting right!" Momiji cried, still making a joke out of it. But try as he might to shift position, the pain wouldn't go away.

[Kisa Sohma]

Kisa looked at Momiji.
"Are you o..." Her sentence was cut off by a spike of pain in her head. She cried out and leaned forward, trying to get ride of the pain. Her orange hair fell in her face as the pain worsened.

[momiji]

"Kisa! You..too?" Momiji looked surprised. His was a stomach pain, but Kisa was clutching her head, right? It was unreasonable to think they both suddenly got violently sick for no apparent reason at the same time. Perhaps it had to do with the curse...?

"C'mon, Kisa, the pain is lessening now. We've got to go to the main house." Momiji thought for a moment. There was no way the two of them could stagger back that distance. They needed help. They couldn't explain it to the school...Yuki? Kyo? They'd be hurting as well. "No. That's no good. We've got to find Tohru. I think I saw her in a classroom on the third floor. Can you stand Kisa? Do you want to wait here? I think...I can go on my own."

[Kisa Sohma]

Kisa held her head with her hands, still slightly in pain.
"I think I can walk." She whispered. She carefully stood up and wobbled as more pain shot through her head. She tried pulling open the door to the stairs, but the pain prevented her from exerting to much energy. She leaned against the wall next to the door.

[Kisa Sohma]

(I have to go. Jimmy want's to get on. Curse you Jimmy! *Leaves*)

[momiji]

((K. Probably won't be on when you get back, but hey. Looks like we'll miss the excitement if they all leave the room anyway. Hi, Jimmy!))

"Let me." Momiji grabbed the door handle and leaned back, pulling it open slowly. With one hand on his stomach and nearly doubled over in pain he made quite a sight. He prayed that none of the coppers were still on the hunt...

[Kisa Sohma]

Kisa walked through the door and started down the stairs as fast as her pain-filled body would alowe(sp?) safely. She tripped on on of the stairs and fell down to the next level. Groaning, she sat up and started down the stairs again. She waited at the bottom of the stairs for Momiji, her head still in pain.
