Go where this voice gets stronger

**oh gawd why are you touching my fais

His eyes involuntarily do that thing where they blink blue for a second.**

From:

[asldkfj she saw that, didn't she. She's looking right at his face.]

From:

emptyseat

[Yes, she did see it and she quickly pulls her hand away.]

What... what is--?

From:

Wait. [KAITO reaches over and forces her to face him, turning her around by her shoulders. He's not usually this bold, especially with another lady, but this is for Mekaito's sake!] Please wait.

You're right... he has something to do with going over the walls. [It really wasn't his place to explain, but someone had to do it.] Kaito's father made him and left him here. That's how he went over the walls. He can move.

[He looked behind Naomi, right at Mekaito. If this was a bad choice, may a terrible virus eat him whole.]

Right?

From:

**oh, well - if that's how we're playing it**

Yeah... **he stops standing so still, looking over at Kaito**

From:

emptyseat

[When she turns around to see who was speaking, she can't help but shout in surprise. (Kaito must've been really out cold if he couldn't hear all this noise.)]

It's moving! [Naomi hides behind KAITO. It's sort of an instinct; she doesn't even realize what she's doing right now, only focused on the strange object in front of her.]

How can it move?

From:

Technology, [he says simply.] He was built that way.

[He tries to comfort her.] He won't hurt anyone. He helped Kaito many times. If it wasn't for him... I'm sure Kaito would've had a hard time.

From:

**The sudden crash of his body had, with the help of the others, allowed Kaito to breathe through the coughs again. He was starting to wake up, and started by opening his eyes. ... To see KAITO, and Naomi**

... wha...

**another cough. God, couldn't they STOP for a second? He thought he had been getting better.**

what happened?

From:

!

**Mekaito wasn't really sure how to react to people freaking out to him, so he had temporarily frozen his movements again and just stared uncertainly at Naomi. But hearing Kaito's voice, he was immediately distracted from that and jumped to his feet to turn around and see**

Master~

**he put his hands on the couch next to him** Do you feel better now??

From:

**he absently gave Mekaito a nod, but quickly went back to looking at KAITO and Naomi. She looked frightened - oh god, what was going on - Kaito felt that he'd somehow screwed up really bad.**

From:

[KAITO also took a step towards Kaito, but hesitated when he remembered Naomi hiding behind him. Well, Mekaito was already there for the master, so maybe KAITO could hang back just this once.]

Are you okay? If you still need to rest, then rest.

From:

I ... I don't know why that happened. I think I ran out of air, something.

Sorry, I guess the cat's out of the bag...

From:

emptyseat

[Naomi was silent, earlier, watching everyone's interactions carefully. After a while, the scared look leaves her face. She steps out from her hiding place with a calmer expression.]

I'm sorry I got you worked up, earlier. I think that's what did it.

From:

It's - *cough* - it's not your fault. I didn't expect to have to cover for them so soon, and I really hated lying to you, so...

From:

emptyseat

Yeah, but I'm sure I didn't help.

[She smiled and patted KAITO's shoulder.] This guy's been helping me out, though. He's a good man, just like his look-alike.

From:

[Awwwwkward smile. Master, help me, she's so touchy-feely and I just realized that she probably doesn't know I'm not human and I didn't tell her I was a Vocaloid so we're technically still lying and what do I do? ;_;]

From:

**Kaito was picking up on that nervous vibe, but he didn't quite understand what was wrong. Was he shy around girls?**

Yeah, he is. We've been traveling together.

**he was sitting up now, but the cough was still persistent. Not enough to knock him out again, but - it'd make an opening for KAITO to get away from Naomi, if she was making him uncomfortable.**

Hey, KAITO, can you get the cough syrup? It's in the medicine cabinet in the bathroom... should probably take some.

From:

[He's so grateful for the opening. It's been a long time since he's seen a human in the first place, then he met Kaito, and now Kaito's good friend was hanging onto him and stuff. It was just. Kinda overwhelming (and a little embarrassing).]

Okay. I'll be back. [And so he goes.]

From:

Thanks. **Kaito sighs lightly, feeling sheepish about the whole thing**

Naomi, how long was I passed out? Did he go ahead and fill in the blanks for you, or should I?

From:

emptyseat

Not too long. That's a good thing, by the way.

We didn't get to talk about much. He did try to tell me about -- [she quickly glances down at Mekaito] -- your little friend.

[She's still a little wary about him, since she's not used to seeing such a... creation. But at least it looked harmless. Sort of.]

From:

I'm Kaito. [He spoke up, since she didn't seem to know what to call him. Introductions were in order. And now that she knew that he could talk and move, no reason to become ignored.]

You can ask me too... but Master knows more.

From:

emptyseat

[She blinked in surprise when it spoke, but then started to giggle. Of course it'd be named Kaito.]

You know what? That's the least confusing thing I've heard so far.

I'm Naomi. I still don't really know what you are, but I'll try not to be afraid.
