That's kinda part of why I wanna talk to him, you know? I wasn't...

[Blue's lips press together, and suddenly he seems to skip a beat. What was he talking about this for....? That's right, because he wanted to thank Red. He had had an overwhelming swell of thankfulness, as he remembered, as he thought about their childhood together.]

[He'd been feeling... a little lonely.....]

I got mad, I guess. And after that I wasn't good to him for a long time. That's why I can't really say we're friends, anymore.

It's my fault he left, and I know that... I just wish I could tell him.

[Realizing himself with a sudden flush, Blue quickly leans up and rubs the back of his neck, hesitating.]

--Ah, but anyway, I guess if I can't get into contact with him, it'll just have to wait another time. I've been waiting all this time anyway, I guess.

[Killua's well aware that Blue is acting different, so he wonders if he really will tell Red. he gets that. he thinks of the unkind things he suffered from Gon, knowing that Gon wasn't himself because of his emotions. man, NGL was just a bunch of ass.

so, no judgement.]

If you want to tell him... you want to be friends again with him, right?

...It sounds difficult. Gon and I have only known each other for a couple years... and even so, I can't imagine what that's like.

[even though he began to facilitate the distance between them. he had to. it wasn't healthy anymore. but here they were again, living together... even in the same room. without Alluka, or Killua's promise to Bisky applying to leave Gon until he was stronger, since they were in a whole different world...

he's just right back on his bullshit with Gon. and he remembers what he wouldn't let himself miss every day, now. how much he missed Gon. and their friendship was still so young in comparison to Blue's and this guy's?]

[Blue's eyes slide self-consciously towards Killua, mouth squirming like he's having difficulty replying to that question- even fog-brained.]

[Finally, not looking at the other boy, and in a small voice] He was my only real friend, back home.

[A couple years, huh? And that's how long it's been, just since Blue has even seen Red. He wonders if he's crazy for waiting that long. Maybe he really just is pathetic.]

[He slides off the arm of the sofa and uncomfortably grips his arm.] ...I think I'm gonna go out and see if I can spot a trace of his Pokémon. They're pretty big, and I heard he was training up in the mountains, back home, so... So maybe I'll find them.

[He quickly dips over to grab his bag, and hurries towards the door- but he grips the handle and glances back towards Killua.] ...It's good that Gon is here, right? He's your friend.

[And just like he'd said, the night Gon arrived- that was why he didn't need Blue around anymore.]

[Killua holds Blue's gaze, guiltily finding himself unable to answer Blue's question, at first. of course it's good. but Killua's somehow scared of it, too. that makes him sort of ungrateful, doesn't it?]

...Mm.

[his gaze drops, then he lifts his head back up suddenly, a thought occurring to him. he finds Blue's eyes again, looking into them more confidently, more directly. more resolve.]

Blue. When you do find him...

...I'll make sure you tell him how you feel.

[blueser]

[Drawing in a breath at Killua's resolve, Blue feels momentary panic, but also... some relief? He's being supported. This is what he wants, right?]

[Sure. Sure it is.]

[He weakly smiles, and gives Killua a shaky little salute.]

I know I can count on you, Killua!

I'll be back in a bit! Smell ya later!!
