Rolo 'The Scorpion' Lamperouge ([personal profile] tempus_scorpius) wrote in [community profile] towerofanimus2013-10-08 02:14 am

The time we shared was real

Characters: Rolo & YOU
Setting: Cafeteria (Floor 1), Graveyard (Floor 48) & Media room (Floor 14)
Format: Both are fine! I'll follow!
Summary: Rolo has returned from a brief visit to his home world where he found the grave Lelouch dug and buried him in...
Warnings: None yet!

Cafeteria
[So he is finally back.

Rolo can't recall how he'd left the Tower nor how he'd come back... but that's the least of his worries. He's still much too preoccupied by what he'd seen in his home world...

Everything was dead and in ruins, and somehow he didn't need to eat nor drink nor rest as Suzaku had described to him before. That didn't bother him though. His world being destroyed was of no concern to him. He felt no attachment whatsoever to it after all.

That was until he saw the grave at the edge of what was once a forest, right next to a huge crater that was possibly a large lake once upon a time. He'd never seen it before yet it felt familiar and he was drawn to it then he saw his battered locket hanging from the grave marker. It was... his grave...? But who? The only person who could have buried him back then was....

Nii-san...


His big brother who loathed all sorts of physical activities and did his best to get out of doing anything remotely physical had... His big brother...

Rolo did something he'd never done before in his life. He cried and sobbed right there in front of his own grave, releasing everything that had been pent up inside him for so long. Surely the fact that this grave exists means that Lelouch did love him after all. It isn't a lie after all. It is real. He is Lelouch's (adopted) brother.

Being a resident of the Tower for more than an year now has completely disillusioned Rolo from believing in anything or anyone anymore but surely, this is something he can believe in. Even though Lelouch was cold and distant to him when he was here, he can still believe that deep inside his brother did care for and love him, right? Is it alright for him to hold onto this in a Tower where everything is fake?

Now back at the Tower, seated in the cafeteria, Rolo clutches his locket tightly and tries not to cry again...]


****
Graveyard
[Sometime in the late morning, Rolo sets off for the graveyard to look for Lelouch's grave then he just sits quietly beside it, appearing to be deep in thought. He occasionally takes out his locket to listen to the little tune it plays and to look at the photo inside it - a relic from an enchanted time.]

****
Media room
[After visiting Lelouch, Rolo decides to give the media room a try. He's just looking around really, trying to find a game or film that interests him. He wonders if he should try that romance film that V/V told him about a while back...

He might actually be a little more sociable for once and turn to whoever is in the room with him to ask.]

What's your favourite game?

[Or]

What type of films do you like?

[ Kuwabara didn't like the sound of that one bit. ]

Ya mean when you got home, you were dead.

[ He bluntly replied. ]

You ain't thinking about givin' it all up just cuz you're dead in your world, right?
ainohenshin: (with eikichi)

[personal profile] ainohenshin 2013-11-16 07:18 am (UTC)(link)
There's always someone out there that's gonna care for ya. Ya can't just assume stuff just cuz you messed up or somethin'

[ He's not sure what he's saying but he's trying. ]
ainohenshin: (ehheeh i got this man)

[personal profile] ainohenshin 2013-11-20 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
People say the stupidest shit when they're angry. They don't actually mean all of it.

[ He replied to him. ]

Sounds about right, if he buried ya so carefully.

[ Kuwabara proceeded to ruffle Rolo's hair if he was close enough. ]
ainohenshin: (eikichi!!!)

[personal profile] ainohenshin 2013-12-03 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
Family's fight and get on each other's nerves all the damn time. It don't mean they hate each other. Hell I fight with nee-san all the time!

[ He grins. ]

'm visting a friend. He's been gone for a while so I wanted ta tell him that I ain't kickin' the bucket yet.

[ God he missed his best friend, but he couldn't exactly wish for Yusuke to come back this way. ]
ainohenshin: (grin)

Hey, it don't mean they don't love ya. Just keep that in mind.

[ He nodded his head. ]

Urameshi an' I go way back. We've know each other since we were in middle school an' all. I'm graduating high school soon.
ainohenshin: (bedhead)
