[Ryouga knows the tone of her voice is no joke, so this time he wont brush it off. Still, he's only been here a few days and she's already giving him bad news...?]
Can you come back to the apartment? I'd feel better talking about it in person; It's too important to discuss over the phone.
[He's the last person she wants to break it to, really. If anything, she'd be happier trying to fix it herself and letting him stay ignorant of the fact their future isn't slated to last, but that wouldn't be fair to him. If he knows, then maybe there's something he can do to help, too.
Rio can only take small solace in that idea at the moment, though. His reaction is not something she's looking forward to.]
[She wouldn't ask him something like this if it wasn't important, and Ryouga will be damned if he takes any more chances with her. Not here, not in this lifetime.
So he rushes into the apartment at an awkward run, shutting the door and immediately storming through, looking around with an overly cautious leer.]
[It's just like him to come running to her when she asks in a tone like that. She'd do it for him, too, after all. But the way he does it makes Rio smile a little through the cloud of discontent that surrounds her.]
Hi...
[She gestures to the seat next to her on the couch, giving him what would normally be branded an expectant puppy-dog look that instead just seems more wounded than anything in these circumstances.]
[But Ryouga doesn't sit down. Seeing that Rio is unharmed and in one piece, that just makes him more anxious with confusion. He stands tense in front of the couch, hands curled into fists.]
Wha..? … C'mon, Rio, out with it. What's the news?
[Backdated to roughly 6 hours and a couple of minutes after the end of the special CERES tours.
It's only a couple of minutes after he has regained his bearings and Vector still can't believe he is actually doing this. Shit! If that fuckhead wouldn't have one of the most useful Numbers at his disposal-]
[The feed turns to video, showing Vector with a dramatic scowl and pissed off fire gleaming in his eyes. Or rather, in his left eye which is currently red. The other is still purple and sports the telltale discoloration of blindness.]
The fact that somebody took one of my damned eyes out and hacked my communicator, asshat! They even got into my room, and I bet I'm not the only one! This line isn't safe, either, so use your damned head and meet me somewhere!!
[He leaves the where up to Ryouga because he knows that any of his suggestions will only end in suspicions and extra-arguments.]
[Ryouga makes an audible sound of surprise at Vector's bizarre state. Sure, it's Vector and it could be a trap, but there's also the fact that one of the Barians is apparently in distress and could actually be in trouble. He's got to look into this. And since Ryouga can pick the place, his suspicions mellow a bit.]
All right already! Meet me behind the fish shack in the shopping district. I'm coming.
Of course! We're not getting any new cards if we sit on our butts, right?
[ he's too excited about improving his deck yeah... actually it's just to keep himself from wondering about things but those are totally the same thing! ]
[… That's true. Though, honestly, it's probably less the promise of cards and more the fact that he hasn't seen the friendly face in a while... unless you count that illusion that time he got sucked into vivid, but Ryouga would rather not.]
Fine, fine. I'm not playing something stupid, though.
[Ring, ring, Mizael calling. Taking full advantage of the CereVice's hovering ability, he can be seen in the middle of his very Barian colored apartment, with a yellow and white striped sweater instead of his usual feathery apparel and his arms in their natural crossed position.
And he looks annoyed enough that this probably isn't a social call.]
[Ryouga's morning hasn't got off to the best start, and when he answers, he's tired-looking and thinning his lips in an odd way, though not enough to be too strange.]
