53 Souls [Accidental Video Post]

[soul_dissonance]

[BBBZZAP! Apparently, he didn't learn from the last time this happened. So he lets out a loud shout, dropping his communicator onto the hard floor.]

[The video feed switches on, the camera angle crooked and focusing on Soul sitting cross-legged on the gym floor and flexing the fingers of his numbed hand. He's taken off his jacket, which is laying in a heap nearby.] Dammit! Doesn't keeping in touch count for anything anymore?

[After a few seconds, he clears his throat, trying to hush his voice and closes his eyes. His hands are placed over his legs and he appears to be taking a meditative pose.] If "emptying your mind" wasn't a part of the experience, then maybe I'd have an easier time of figuring out what the hell the Scientists would like to hear over this thing...

[...]

[A short chuckle escapes past his lips, and he takes a deep breath.] "Harden your soul"... huh?

[[ooc In a move defying all logic and his love of sleeping in, Soul has started attending morning training at the gymnasium now that the word's gotten out. He's still fails at meditation though.]]

[In a very drowsy way as if she just woke up.]

..Mm? You're up b'fore me..?

[suprstarmeister.livejournal.com]

...You taking some crazy yoga class or something now?

[prodigal-axe.livejournal.com]

... So, how long before you get shocked again?

[He hasn't made a post in a bit either.]

[asymmetriphobic.livejournal.com]

Maybe if you used it more, it wouldn't shock you as much. [Unintentionally cold.]

Nn...?

[Soul opens one eye, glancing down at the communicator on the floor. ...Damn. He closes it again, not wanting to explain himself just yet. Concentrate, concentrate.]

[One of his eyebrows gives a light twitch. But otherwise he just tries to focus. This is already hard enough without the extra noise.]

[[ooc Oh man. This feels like baiting. XD]]

[Video]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Shut up.

[He opens both eyes again, looking down at his communicator. If he needs to, he'll turn it back off.]

It's been buzzing me for awhile, so around the two week mark.

[Fumbles to Video]

[After a few attempts, Maka appears on the screen--hair a mess and still half asleep. She watches him with a very confused look on her face before she plops her head back on the pillow--continuing to keep her eyes on him (at least trying to keep them open).]

[He mutters, bringing a hand up to scratch his head. He doesn't look as annoyed as the words sound.]

Thank you, Captain Obvious.

[As the video feed rolls on, Soul doesn't have any idea that he's being watched so intently. In fact, he can be seen making replies and gestures toward a few of his other comments before finally reaching for the communicator and standing up.

Maybe it would just be easier to turn it off and explain things to the nosy later.]

..Sooooooooooo.....

You now meditate..? How long has this been going on? And why didn't I not notice you out of bed?

[Video]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

No. I've been trying to learn how.

Off and on. I don't usually get up this early to make the walk over. But I couldn't sleep.

[Video]

[ineuphony]

[She lets out a yawn and snuggles more in the blanket.]

You probably didn't ease your mind well enough. It might be why you were having trouble. Meditation is difficult in general.

Mm, I see. I didn't sleep so well either, which is why I'm planning on skipping exercising today... I would recommend some things..but..we're lacking a lot of ingredients.

[Video]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Mm... "Emptying your mind" is harder than it sounds. Especially with your communicator turned on. Nice hair, by the way.

Ah. Sorry for waking you up, Maka.

[Video]

[ineuphony]

I'm sure you'll be able to in time. Just...try bit by bit every day I suppose. Oh shut up.

It's alright. I'm glad that you did. I would have woken up regardless knowing you weren't beside me and then I would have gotten worried..due to all what's been going on recently.

[Video]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

I'd rather be training to protect There's no rush for me.

I'm watching my back. Don't worry.

[Video]

[ineuphony]

Mm. Good.

[Another yawn and a stretch.]

Are you on your way home or are you going to continue to be out? I have a sinking feeling that you haven't had breakfast yet. Which you do need.

[watchthesunsets.livejournal.com]

Not much counts for anything where the scientists are concerned.

[Video]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Depending on who shows... I might be here for a few more hours.

[Geez, Maka. Way to make his stomach grumble uncomfortably.]

[Video]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

That's pretty profound, Roxas.

What makes you say that all of a sudden?

[Video]

[ineuphony]

[...]

Come home, stupid. It's pointless to train on an empty stomach. Unless, you want to pass out.

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

[Sigh. She's got him there. He really hates it when that happens.]

All right, all right. Just give me some time to finish up things here first.

[Video]

[ineuphony]

[smiles gently.]

Okay. It'll be ready by the time you get here.

[ooc: Such a good wife girlfriend. And you didn't see that]

[watchthesunsets.livejournal.com]

Well, they bring us here to.. what? Repopulate? Rebuild? But they take our powers away, which makes it more difficult. And then they shock us every two weeks if we're not "doing as we're told".

.. and if that was supposed to be sarcasm, it went right over my head.

[Video]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Heh. I appreciate it.

[[ooc I saw everything.]]
