You've reached Sasuke. Leave a message. If it's important, I'll reply when I can.



[[OoC: IC/OoC plotting can happen here whether you can/want to reach me through other means (IE Plurk) or not! Video, Voice and Text are enabled for messaging Sasuke!]]

[All these people care. Try and look at it that way.]

I have no reason to lie to you anymore, Sasuke.

[Not here, not even in their world.]

[beforethedarkness]

I know that. That doesn't make it any easier.

[jikogisei]

[There's a bit of a delay before a response comes and when it does it's not text.]

You've been following the path I set you on with my lies and now you must find your own. It's not meant to be easy.

[Don't mind the sudden intake of breath on the other end, he's not expecting voice. At least not from Itachi.]

...

I still don't know what I'm going to do.

[jikogisei]

[Even after everything, using text to talk to his brother makes Itachi feel odd. Like it makes it more awkward.]

I imagine it may take some time to figure it out. And I also imagine your friends will not be happy with you being on your own.

I don't care about what they think.

[jikogisei]

[Internal sigh.]

That's not what I was getting at, Sasuke. [He's all for his brother taking some time away from them to figure himself out if he needs to.] If you need space to think then telling them that could stop them from bothering you so much.

They won't.

It doesn't matter what I say. They won't. It's not like they could understand.

[jikogisei]

They are rather insistent. [Itachi knows this much.] And they care.

But you are right, not even I could fully understand. That doesn't mean I won't listen should you feel the need to talk.

[beforethedarkness]

[That gets him to heave yet another sigh, and it takes him a little bit before he can trust himself to speak again.]

I need time.

voice | locked

[jikogisei]

[Itachi waits patiently for Sasuke to speak.]

I'll be here if you decide to talk to me. [No pressure.]

voice | locked

[beforethedarkness]

Got it.

voice | locked

[jikogisei]

Take care of yourself.

[It's said in a warm brotherly-concern tone before he ends the connection.]
