The place itself is definitely better, anyway. More of a normal city with lots of clothing stores and stuff, and an actual bar... and a hotel with private rooms instead of shared warehouses, which is definitely nice after all the furniture struggles.
[ may or may not have subtly shifted and hiked his skirt up just slightly while saying "private rooms". stop looking away. ]
[ how funny would it have been if that was the entire interaction though
30 minutes later simon is definitely not in the same place he was because he's not just putting his afterlife on hold for your gay anxiety
but he's at least kind of still in the vicinity, and if livio looks around he can eventually find him sitting in what looks like mid-air some distance away with his legs crossed, drinking a mcdonalds coffee and scrolling on his phone. ]
[ I GUESS HE STILL IS BECAUSE HE PROBABLY WAITED FOR LIKE 5 MINUTES AT FIRST AND 25 MINUTES ISN'T REALLY ENOUGH TIME TO GO BACK TO THE HOTEL AND CHANGE AND COME BACK WITH COFFEE
also money's somewhere near him and will occasionally come into view but only when livio is concentrating on simon specifically sorry ]
Did Amelia not show you that message? I told her he was here.
[ like, briefly, at the very end, after a lot of defensive ranting.
anyway. he'll stand up (and smooth his skirt) and grab his coffee again and come over closer along with money, who appears to be completely ignoring livio. probably pushes open an invisible door like a mime at some point. ]
Oh. [ blinks. ] That gave a lot of context for stuff that I left out of the note I sent you since I figured you'd see both and it would have been a lot to send twice. But yeah, they threw him in the lava and killed him.
[ so at least you can be happy to know you got revenge for money even if you didn't want to get revenge for simon?? ]
I guess if you still have questions about things that didn't get answered in yours I can answer 'em now.
[ or maybe just forward the amelia messages?? do dead messages even hang out in a sent folder, he's not sure, he'll have to look ]
...Honestly, as angry as I've been about things, it's also probably the least stress I've felt in twelve years. Don't have to worry about people coming after you to kill you after they've already done it.
Yeah. Ever since the orphanage. [ ... ] Or at least, I was sure they were. The guy that planned the whole assassination thing with Roland... he was the chief prosecutor for years, so pretty much near the top of the justice system, and he had lots of people working for him. Making things disappear — evidence, criminal charges against his friends, people who were inconvenient for him — it's his whole thing.
[ taking out his phone to check the message thing... ]
Never got a full night's sleep after I left, and I was always jumping at every unexpected sound. I eventually joined the circus because they travel a lot and I'd be harder to find without a permanent address.
[ this guy sounds like someone who would be a bad father.... perhaps to a different character eric plays ]
Fuck... that asshole must have had a lot of pull if could do shit like that. [ it is not unheard of, in trigun. soooo many corrupt assholes and law enforcement. yikes. ]
For now, yeah. I had a plan in motion for taking him down, though... I just need a few more days, then everything's finally going to be brought to light and he's not going to be able to make it all go away anymore.
[ there's something about saying all this while in a maid dress. ]
That's why I have to get back to my world, even if I don't really want to stay there. I've got to see this through after everything I've put into it.

no subject
[ there are some very cursed places that sell some very cursed things, actually.
... ]
Hm? It's not that hard to look at me, is it?
[ with a slight tilt of his head and a little grin, brushing his hair behind his ear. ]
I know I was kind of joking about it in public earlier, but I really did hope you'd think I looked sexy in this...
[ how did we get here, i ask, like this isn't my fault... also they're not even on the same physical plane this is just like horny facetiming ]
