CHANNEL
FREQUENCY: 787.26696
DESCRIPTION: Gongenzaka will promptly answer the radio whenever he's called, which means it's super easy to take advantage of. Go on. Ask him if his fridge is running. He'll hate you forever but will remain unable to do anything about it.

✉MAIL BOX
LOCATION: An astonishingly sturdy wooden mailbox!
DESCRIPTION: Please put the mail IN the mailbox. All the way. No half-and-half-ing it. Mail should not go ON the box either. Nor under it. Nor beside it, however that works. IN. THE BOX.

[Yuya shakes his head.] No--another Star Guardian fixed it. They're okay, I...

[He purses his lips, smashing his face further into the pillow.] It's awful.

[In general. Experiencing it. Yuya's gaze loses focus thinking about it, how dark it was.

How they could do that to anyone... it's changed the way he thinks about what Academia did. How angry Yuto was--how angry he was.]

It's worse than that.

[Yuya flexes his fingers reflexively, then focuses his attention back on Gongenzaka. He looks a little apologetic.]

I got trapped in one... I guess it's still bothering me.

[He doesn't know what else to say about it, though. It's just a sick churning of emotion in his stomach, remember that tense and tight darkness.]

[Yuya at least understands what Gongenzaka is trying to do. His arm moves to wrap loosely, awkwardly around Gon as he looks down at him. It's not even quite a reversal of their positions, because Yuya may be short but he's not this diminutive.]

Yeah... [He nods once.] But I got out. Others--I guess it's because of my Spark. [Because others couldn't. No one in the dimensions had the power to reverse it except for Leo's huge machine. And he's loathe to give that man credit for what was his fault in the first place.]

I think... I'm going to help go after Childermass again. [He's sure there's some complaints about that, but it seems wrong not to give Lambert another hand when it's someone he cares so much about.] But not to fight, this time. I want to reach them another way.

[It's hard to say 'like he was reached' when Gongenzaka hasn't experienced that fight. Hard to explain it, when most of it is fuzzy details of him being trapped in his own head and unaware of anything but occasional snippets of voices until the end.] We can remind them who they are.

[Yuya shakes his head.] No, I'm not going alone. I'm helping Lambert.

[They were, after all, closer. Yuya's really just providing what assistance he can, knowing how much it is.

He's sure Gongenzaka would have wanted to be there, too, but...

Yuya presses his face more stubbornly into the pillow.]
I want to convince them the Void is wrong, but it's hard to come up with ideas by myself.

[So, he was seeking help from Gon after all, even after pushing him to Yuzu. At least Yuya hopes he takes better to the idea than some of them.]

I know that. [He grumbles a little, only because he spent a lot of time arguing with other people on the radio about this.] Steven told me what was wrong, but I couldn't explain to him that things didn't have to be that way. Childermass just insulted Lambert.

[It wasn't any indication what was wrong with him, however, although that's less the part that Yuya's stuck on. It's the actual getting through that isn't easy. He knows it isn't... but last time he was on the receiving end.]

[Yuya knows that, too, but he's not about to bring up the bed that he went and made himself. It was his actions that meant he wouldn't do this with Gongenzaka, but can't he still ask for advice?

Yeah, Yuya's not mentioning that in part because Lambert told him not to. He can't say Childermass reacted favorably to it, anyway.]


No, nothing that seemed to get through to him... but Lambert knows him better. I talked to him and Rita, and Childermass really likes magic so maybe he'll listen to that?

[Yuya rolls over, his arm leaving Gongenzaka as he lies on his back and stares at the ceiling instead.] CY-Ren's having another concert. We'll see all of them then... what are you and Yuzu going to do?

[He didn't hear them on the radio, anyway, but they're his friends and involved and he'd like to believe they've understand better than anyone where he's coming from.]

Thanks Marishi

[Yuya nods.] There won't be magic for him if everything's gone, right?

[It's like a passion--maybe that is his spark after all. That'd make it a much easier appeal.

He's not sure what connection Gon or Yuzu has to Papyrus, but he's sure they wouldn't pursue him without an idea how to help. There's a moment where he goes over that in his head.]


Yeah, they have... [He at least helped fix Childermass' heist, but some of the others--well, somewhere there's a lot of pacified fruit animals roaming free.]

Good luck. With Papyrus. [Since he won't be seeing it through with them.]

[Yuya tilts his head to look at Gongenzaka, although the angle is awkward so he pushes himself to sit up instead. He's quiet for a moment, before offering a faint, sheepish smile.] And I... didn't mean to make you think I didn't want you by my side, either.

[He rests his hands in his lap, drooping over a little as he looks down at Gongenzaka (it's still a little weird, looking down).] I really didn't, because I'd never want to push you away. But I didn't want to... not be strong enough to protect you or Yuzu if something happened. I've always been the one with strong friends, right?

[Going from being protecting to protecting isn't... as easy as he hoped it would be. Not with dueling, not with magic. he really had been such a fragile person, hadn't he?] I'm sorry.

[Gongenzaka being the size of a corgi is never going to not be weird. Frankly, it's weirder than any pile up of changes the carnival has put him through. And he's pretty sure his shirt is getting wet, but that's fine.

Yuya chuckles.]
Don't say that like you aren't. You're not just physically strong... you're strong in your mind and your heart, too. You're steadfast, right?

[It's something Yuya can't help but admire. Someday he wants to reach there. Maybe not to Gongenzaka's actual size, but to be a friend to reliable that he can hold them up.

Then again, Gongenzaka might be so strong that he really doesn't need that from Yuya. He's not the only one Yuya's getting stronger for, of course, it's just sometimes weird to try and comfort a friend who is coping with things like dying or losing his arm better than Yuya himself did.

Really, the only time he can think of that Gongenzaka needed Yuya's validation was when he admitted to have been hiding the severity of his carnival time. But of course something like that couldn't disappoint him.]


Thanks for believing in me.

But first

[Yuya tips his head back with a laugh as Gon muffles against him, both because it's funny and it kind of tickles. When given the silence to think about this, this is a pretty absurd situation. Gongenzaka, especially is in an absurd situation.

He slips something out of his pocket, waiting for Gon to calm down at least a little.]


Hey, Gongenzaka. [He starts slowly to catch his attention.] Say cheese.

[And when Gongenzaka looks up at Yuya, he already has his Portland phone out and a coy smile on his lip. And he immediately snaps a picture of him.

Dignified.]
