“Existence is all we will have. It is our lives.” Yukio does have a point there, but existence isn’t really a life either. Even he knows that. “Maybe. People have been able to break whatever cycle they were in before…we might be able to.” He doesn’t want to just come out and say yes to his brother. He doesn’t want to give Yuki too much hope in case if it is dashed…but he doesn’t want to leave his brother without any hope either. Without hope, great men become nothing and Yukio doesn’t want to see his brother become anything like that.
“I see nothing wrong with speaking the truth.” Even though Yukio has been punished for it multiple times over the years. Though, for now, he isn’t saying anything horrible. He’s just stating an observation; otherwise they would still be dolls essentially. “It wouldn’t surprise me if he was somehow watching. “ Yuki hasn’t been known to be paranoid or anything so if he thinks someone if watching them….they probably are being watched.
Yukio smiles a bit as his brother leans in and nuzzles a bit, even though Yuki can’t see it. Deep down, he wishes he could at least get his brother out of this life. But…then what would Yuki do? They’ve really never known anything outside the world of being controlled, of being slaves. He doesn’t want to shove Yuki into that alone either. He knows Yuki could get hurt out there on his own, but…maybe…someday they can both get out and be able to actually live their own lives. “Of course we’ll get through anything.” They have so far. Why would this change anything now?
“It’s good though. Even though it takes you awhile, at least you can read it.” There are people out there who can’t even do that much. Slow reading is better than not being able to read at all, at least that’s how Yukio sees it. “He might, but we haven’t met him yet…so…neither of us know what kind of person he might be.” He’s heard stories of terrible masters….and other stories of masters who seem like a godsend or something.
Yukio is not happy about the broken contact. The new one didn’t have to go through them. He could’ve done something else, but it isn’t worth it. Now, if that man was trying to take Yuki’s food…that would be worth it in his mind. And so, he takes his brother’s hand and off to their room they go, leaving the other one to do whatever he wishes.
Once in their room, Yukio looks around the room. It’s simple…well…not compared to some places they have stayed, due to their masters or other circumstances, including punishment. Compared to those, this place is lavish. Extremely so. Yukio sits down on the bed to the right. “This one.” They both know what’s going to happen anyway, so it doesn’t matter which one he picked.
Yukio kind of jumps at the intercom. He’ll get used to it soon enough….it also gives more of a hint that they probably are being watched. It isn’t like he has anything to unpack really. What would he have? “Do you want to explore Yuki?”
