Floor 100

Characters: Yata and you! (intended for Fushimi ([personal profile] knifeinthe ) but others are welcome to tag in!)
Setting: Floor 100
Format: Prose, will match!
Summary: Yata visits floor 100 and guess what he sees? (spoiler: It's not what he expects it to be at all)
Warnings: Yata and Fushimi angst. Possible general angst. Yata also has a bit of a potty mouth.



Yata had at least glanced at every floor in this tower during the few months he's stayed here, save for the last one. Since there wasn't much going on at the moment and that he'd heard the 100th floor wasn't life threatening, he figured the last floor could be worth a trip. After the long elevator ride, he finally reached his destination. He'd heard that this floor would show you whatever you missed the most about your home world, and since he was kind of missing his beloved Homra bar, he thought it might be nice to go take a look. He was kind of worried that seeing the bar would open up the metaphorical can of worms that was homesickness, but he was a big boy and trusted himself to handle it. He was positively excited to see Kusanagi's imported bar that he'd once had to apologize for throwing Kamamoto against it. He could hardly stand the wait.

However, as he stepped out onto the floor,  the room did not show him an empty Homra bar. It instead showed him a small, empty alley that was the back of the bar. He knew from the graffiti that it was he exact same place that his former friend had betrayed him and (as far as Yata was concerned) that his friendship wasn't good enough and he was basically worthless because he felt a deep connection to Red Clan. Not only was Yata disappointed that he wasn't going to get to see his favorite place again, he was enraged that whatever trick this room had considered this place what he missed most from his home world. It might as well show him the rooftop that Totsuka died on, too, for all the help showing him places where painful things happened that he couldn't change with all the wishes in the world were to him.

"What the fuck is this? I don't miss this fucking place, or that shitty monkey."

The tower was truly a perplexing place, with little to no consistency between its many floors. Fushimi hated it more and more with each moment he was stuck here, not even all the contempt he had towards paperwork could hold a candle to it. The ridiculous amount of floors was a pain, and of course it would be the hundredth floor, that idiot always had a thing about heights.

Fushimi had been following Yata.

From what he'd heard of the floor, he was expecting the Homra bar too, perhaps even just a glimpse of the outside. But he wasn't sure what to do with this or the feelings it evoked - that seemed to be happening a lot, lately. Fushimi cautiously attempted to rap his knuckles against one of the brick walls, only for his fingers to pass through, as if nothing was there at all. Ah, of course, Fushimi thought. Well, no matter, he had other priorities.

"And yet," he called out to Yata's back. "The tower seems to be saying otherwise, Misaki."

"Oh? Am I not allowed to explore? I wasn't aware that you had authority over me or my actions." Fushimi glanced around the room again, at the alleys and streets that weren't there. It was a convincing illusion, he truly felt as though he could just walk a few blocks and end up at the - "I'll have you know that I'm here to test something out, whether or not I have your permission."

Fushimi clicks his tongue, and sneers in response. "You're exaggerating. And regardless, there is nothing to say."

"Of course, why would I ever respond to someone when they address me." Fushimi brushes past Yata to put himself further in the room - near a crossing, in his vision. There appears to an alley very close by, certainly, but it's not quite the same location Yata sees. "Despite whatever delusions you might have, I really did come here to test a few things."

"Though." He attempts to scuff the edge of his boot against a lamppost, and makes a face when it just passes through again. "I won't turn down a fight, either."
