I've returned. Kyushu at this time of year is beautiful, but my trip there was hardly enjoyable.

I apologize for the commotion I caused Tuesday in preparation for my trip. I was rather loud, which is unlike me, and I hate to say that my attitude wasn't the greatest.

Atobe. Echizen. Thank you.

Tezuka-sama, you're back! Is everything alright?

[seriousaura]

I can't say that it is. However, I have something for you.

[silverfromsteel.livejournal.com]

Oh, no. That's not good. Are you alright?


...You do?

[seriousaura]

Not exactly.

Aa.

[silverfromsteel.livejournal.com]

...Do you need anything? Can I help you at all?


Should I...come over? What is it?

[seriousaura]

No, I'm fine.

I can deliver it or you can come over to get it. The Stradivarius.

[silverfromsteel.livejournal.com]

Are you sure?

The-!

It's finished? They said I could sound check it?

[seriousaura]

I am. I have Yanagi. Thank you though.

It is finished for now. Actually, depending on how well the sound check goes, you might be able to keep it.

...Let me know - it doesn't have to be for chores or something - if you need to talk, well I suppose you have Echizen-sama, but...


....keep-?

[seriousaura]

Aa. Thank you.

Yes. Keep.

....you're kidding.

Tezuka-sama, what on earth happened?

Screened to Ohtori

[seriousaura]

I'm not.

Too much.

Re: Screened to Ohtori

but - but - keep? A treasure like that? Tezuka-sama, it's probably worth more than I'll make in an entire lifetime!

Please, Tezuka-sama, you're scaring me. Things are clearly not alright and I know we haven't known each other long, but...

Screened to Ohtori

[seriousaura]

Aa. Considering it is in my possession now, I can do with it what I please.

My apologies, Ohtori. I do not mean to scare you.

Re: Screened to Ohtori

[silverfromsteel.livejournal.com]

It's yours? I thought your grandfather was doing the restoration?

I know you don't mean to, Tezuka-sama, but...you're not acting like yourself and you're not making very much sense. Clearly something has happened and I'm worried about you.

Screened to Ohtori

[seriousaura]

Aa. He was.

Thank you for your concern. I appreciate it, but for the time being, I would rather not go into much detail.

Re: Screened to Ohtori

[silverfromsteel.livejournal.com]

But...why would you give it to me?

...Alright - just...when you feel comfortable, please-

Nevermind. I don't want to force you.

Screened to Ohtori

[seriousaura]

I have no use for it, no offense.

Aa. I will let you know.

Re: Screened to Ohtori

[silverfromsteel.livejournal.com]

Oh, none taken - but surely any museum would be interested in purchasing it - or a collector or - I just...


Please do

Screened to Ohtori

[seriousaura]

They would be, but I think you would appreciate it more.

I will.

Re: Screened to Ohtori

[silverfromsteel.livejournal.com]

...I-

Tezuka-sama you have no idea what it means to me to even get the chance to play such an instrument- owning it would be just....

Thank you. For even considering it.

Screened to Ohtori

[seriousaura]

I am not considering it. I have already decided. If it is perfect, it is yours.

Re: Screened to Ohtori

[silverfromsteel.livejournal.com]

....

Thank you. If you ever need anything - and I mean anything - all you have to do is ask. This...is beyond anything I've ever hoped. I dont even know where to begin.

Screened to Ohtori

[seriousaura]

You're welcome. There's no need to thank me.

Re: Screened to Ohtori

[silverfromsteel.livejournal.com]

You're giving me a Stradivarius violin - just giving it to me when it's worth more then I'll ever make and there are people who would gladly give up limbs for a chance at it and you say there's no need to thank you?

I beg to disagree.
