Nineteenth Prophecy: Goodbye my lover, goodbye my friend [Video]

[feel_nevermore]

[The feed switches on. Raven is sitting by the lake, staring at the water. The sun is setting behind the horizon. It's almost completely gone. Perfect date setting. Raven talks quietly as if someone was there with her.]

It's the first time you've ever stood me up, Harry. [A slight smirk.] ...And I can't even blame you for it.

[She picks up the PCD and looks just as impassible as always.]

For those who knew him, my boyfriend, Harry Potter is not here anymore.

And it seems that Spike has been sent back too. So if anyone else needs something to bleach their hair, just ask me. I'd hate to see the solution I prepared for him go to waste.

[And she cuts the feed. See Rei? She's learning. It doesn't hurt any less but at least she's getting better at hiding it.]


[Private video to Horst]
We could meet tonight at the bar? If you need to feed. Or whatever.

Nice sunset, huh?

[Her voice is flat, even if she obviously had tried to make this sarcastic. Today, she's ended up sharing that sunset with all Adstri, except the person she wanted to share it with. What's her life really?

And Raven doesn't lean her head on Hinata's shoulder, but she keeps her shoulder pressed against hers.]

It's beautiful.

[There's no sarcasm here, on the contrary.]

That's what makes it so hard, right? That it's still ... beautiful, even though you're missing a part of yourself.

Actually... [It's even worse than you think, Hinata.] I never paid particular attention to it before I watched it with Harry.

Now I just find it... nostalgic. [A pause.] It reminds me a bit of home, too.

I know how that feels.

[She did lose one boyfriend here as well, someone whomade her more confident. She might not have had the courage to confess to Naruto had it not been for Akira.]

Hmm. Akira, was it?

[She remembers that Hinata mentioned him. He wasn't from the same world as her either. It was some time ago. Even before Hinata started dating Naruto.]

[Hinata nods.]

He's still here [she puts a hand on her heart.], but ... it hurts anyway. Knowing that I'll probably never see him again ... that I won't remember him when I go back.

Some people here say that a part of us will still remember this place and what we lived here. Even once we're back in our worlds.

[A pause.] I don't know whether or not this is true but... Maybe it is.

[Offline]

[hyuugahime]

Maybe, yes. B-But ... I don't know if it's true either.

[Nor does it help much right now.]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

Hmm. I kinda liked the sound of it, though.

[No. Nothing does but... talking helps. A bit.]

[Hinata sighs, and Raven might feel her leaning a little heavily against her.]
