"…I missed" Lukas said then started laughing. "I wanted to see if it would go through you, and I missed" he shook his head, "I mean I know I have a sucky ass throw but jeez" He went over and picked the paper up, standing back up he was extremely close to Satou. "Uh, Paper" He muttered and stepped back.
Satou wasn't phased by the two of them being rather close to each other. In fact, he seemed pretty fine with it- It wasn't all that embarrassing to him, or so it seemed at the least. "Yeah, paper," he replied somewhat jokingly.
Lukas chuckled, nevously rubbing the back of his neck. He quickly turned around and cleared his throut "Well, uh, Want to watch Tv? I know you can still do that" He said walking towards the living room. 'what was that? Panicking just from being close to someone? Totally normal, not really. Ugh.' he shook his head to clear his thoughts.
"Yeah, sure. I don't see why not," Satou responded as he had begun floating around in slow circles.
Lukas plopped down on the couch in the living room turning on the tv, he flipped through the channels trying to find something to watch, honeslty he didn't enjoy watching tv all that much, but it gave him somthing he could do with Satou.
Satou stopped floating in circles and instead floated over to the couch, hovering above it as if he were sitting down in midair, rather than sitting on the couch itself. He hummed quietly as he watched Lukas flip through the channels.
Lukas looked over at the door, which he could see from the couch still flipping through the channels as his mind wandered 'Satou seems nice, yeah besides the fact he is dead, so what if he is dead, he is still here. You were acting like a complete child' he thought then started mumbling not relizing he was talking aloud, "I know, but I can be very childish, its totally normal. Yes normal for you but not everyone Hm? Alright fine, you win."
"Wh-" Satou grunted, having heard Lukas talk aloud to himself as if he were holding a conversation with the wall or something. He then shrugged it off, realizing that he used to have a similar habit when he was a kid. He began floating upside down, hoping to lighten up what little lingering tension Satou had begun to feel over the course of the conversation- or, at least, within the time the conversation had quieted down a tad.
Lukas froze and looked at the floor "I was talking out loud wasn't I? " He asked looking over at Satou, he looked at Satou full of confusion and turned his head sideways so he was almost facing the same as Satou. "You enjoy seeing the world for what it really is? Upsidedown" He asked.
"You were, but don't sweat it, I didn't pay much mind to whatever it is you said," Satou replied, still upside down, which caused some of his hair to fall over onto his face. "I mean, yeah, why not? The world, as you put it, is upside down as is, so why not just enhance the illusion, eh?" he joked.
"Now I wanna see" Lukas said and moved so he was hanging upsidedown off of the couch, "Now we both see the same world, that our brains make a flip image of uhhhh blood rushing to my head weeee" He said and started to laugh as he tried and failed to get up. "ack I fink I is stook"
Satou repositioned himself so that he was now facing upright, then used what very little life energy he had left to grab hold of Lukas' hands pulling him up then setting him upright. "There. Don't expect me to be able to do that again, though. I ran out of the energy I need to be able to make physical contact."
"Awe so that means I can't hug you" Lukas pouted then paused "Sorry that was weird" He reached over, still sitting on the couch backwards and turned the TV to a random channel. "I talk to myself a lot…its kind of a wierd habit I have.
"The only way I can regain life energy is by phasing through someone and staying within their soul for at least 15 to 20 minutes. So unless you're willing to let me do that, then you indeed will be unable to hug me," Satou said in response, taking this comment somewhat seriously, but not so much in an offended sense. Rather, it was more… depressing, the tone in which Satou said this. "I understand. I used to have that habit too; back when I was a kid, at least."
"I really want to be able to hug you…I mean in a friendly way…I am a very clingy friend" Lukas said with a shrug, although he had no idea what it would be like haveing someone phase through him, it sounded interesting. "And a clingy person in general…It has cost me a couple of relationships..heh" He muttered.
Satou huffed quietly. "So you're willing to allow me to begin the phasing?" he asked, his head tilted ever so slightly. He knew that this phasing process was somewhat uncomfortable for the being being phased through, so he wanted to make sure he had the proper confirmation of what to do before he officially began. This was very much like him: he'd learned to be as respectful to the wishes of others as he could ever be. Even so, it felt weird having to get permission before phasing through someone. But, then again, he normally phased through random strangers, so given that he knew this person… it was only fitting to ask before phasing.
Lukas nodded "sure, yes. I mean why not? right" He said with a slight smile. He had no idea what he was agreeing too, but honestly didn't care. His phone rang and he pulled it out, and looked at the caller ID with a frown before turning and throwing his phone at the wall, completly missing where he was aiming. He turned back to Satou, "Ignore that"
"Okay then," he said in response to being told to ignore what just happened. "Just so you know, you're gonna feel extremely cold for the next few minutes as I absorb the life energy. Telling you beforehand in case you start whining," he added, then let out a hushed sigh, floating towards Lukas. This was the only possible way to get this energy back, and knowing that he was willing to do it was… quite shocking, at least to Satou. Satou finally phased through Lukas. He was silent during this, not wanting to make things… awkward, to say the least.
Lukas shivered a bit but then shook his arms and tried to ignore the fact that he was cold. "I could go for a nap…or food…then again I can always go for food" he smiled to himself. "I am very random"
Satou remained within Lukas for the time he needed to regain his life energy. He couldn't speak at this time, nor could he move at all, because to do that was to take a major risk that affect both parties, and seeing as Satou was never much of a risktaker, he abided by those rules.
Lukas yawned "Yep I think I will take a nap…I probably broke my phone. Ugh I need a new number anyway so they will leave me alone" He sighed thinking out loud. "Not that it will stop him from bothering me. He could alwasys just come to my house instead, which would be bad."
Once at least 25 minutes passed, Satou exited Lukas, and immediately began floating in fast-paced circles. Once he stopped this, he just floated upside down for a bit. "There we go, phasing complete," he said calmly.
Lukas yawned, "coolio, now-" He said and layed down on the couch, "Imma take a nap, or somthing" He shrugged, honeslty he was just bored, and semi tired. "Napping and snacking my two favorite pastimes"
Satou nodded and vanished, supposedly having gone back into the attic. He was used to residing there, but now it felt a little… weird. He went with it anyway, however, since he couldn't really complain. He'd put this on himself, so he was gonna have to take the brunt of it, like it or not.
Lukas closed his eyes and eventually fell asleep. Of course his dreams were not pleasent or peaceful, as they never were. So he layed there twitching in his sleep as his nightmare went on. He was mumbling "stop, please" continously. While he cried in his sleep.
