Hey, couldn't get to the comm right away, probably out kicking things. Since that doesn't last long, leave me a message and I'll get back to you as fast as I can, eh?

[Text]
Have a haiku.

There was a bluebird
Who was too busy for you
Leave me a message

...What a childish thing to say...

[Which in a big circle makes Japan calm again, and he leans over to give Marco a kiss before he smiles.

And then pulling away to sit at the kotatsu normally like nothing happened yes.]

You just really don't want to be younger than me, do you?

[A twitch at how spot on that is, BUT SIDEGLANCING SLOWLY]

...It cannot be possible...

When you survive another 20,000 years I will tell you if you are or not.

I-I will remember that! So Marco has to live that long as well! I am taking that as a promise!

[... For some reason Marco expected way more protest, and definitely not that reaction at all. Something more like about how it was impossible and he couldn't possibly do that. Was it a bluff?.]

[... Oh well, he'll take the bait this once. Marco leans his forehead against Japan's.]

It's a promise. So long as you promise not to call all that time a lie no matter what happens at the end.

[Honestly Marco I thought he'd react like that too :'| But nope, he is serious over here.

It does seem impossible. He's not sure that he can live another 2000 years let alone 20000, but... Selfishly, he wants a point in time he can at least hold out until. Even though promises hurt, he's okay with it. This time.]

We each promise, then...

October 3rd; action

[fierybluebird]

Aye. [Takes one of Japan's hands and holds onto it. Somehow Marco always thought he'd be the only one to survive such things, to outlive everyone. To have someone promise to outlive it with him and for that long...] No regrets even in just the endeavor, eh?

[Sitting at a kotatsu and making deep and meaningful promises that surpass anything he could have ever expected? Uwahhh his heart is going crazy. He holds that hand and might be a little close, but hey he's starry-eyed about all of this.]

No regrets.

[Marco's actually pretty speechless for once. No deadpan jokes, no teasing. He just wants to feel this moment and hope it lasts. There's a light squeeze to that hand and Marco refuses to let go. 20,000 years huh. Maybe. It was a thrilling possibility either way.]

[Thrilling indeed... Japan is so caught up in the idea. Anyway he's fine with the silence. It's comfortable, and... maybe they could just enjoy each other in the middle of all this chaos. That was nice enough.]
