Lomachislots War - Lost Childhood (Original) ~
Director of Music:
He was on auto pilot. His body just seemed to automatically do as he was supposed to since his mind was obviously malfunctioning. Phineas couldn't think straight. He seemed to have reached the couch, but no tension left his body. He angrily ran a hand through his hair, and looked at his hands.
Why did this had to happen to them?
And why, oh why did it have to happen to Andy?
Why couldn't it have been him?
In a hoarse voice, he finally spoke. "It shouldn't be like this. Andy should be here with me. Or at the very least, I should have been the one to have...died." He spoke the last word strangly, as if it were caught on his throat. He didn't look up, but he knew that Yoko was about to speak, "Why? Because life shouldn't be random. Because lonely, misanthropic, cripples should die, and energetic, friendly, who get dragged out of their structured life should walk away clean.
Yoko didn't know how to answer. She opened her mouth, and said the first thing that came out, "...Phineas...Self-pity isn't like you."
"No." Muttered Phineas, "I'm branching out from self-loathing and self-destruction."
Kasawa Lanford:
Yoko was at a loss for words; while she had felt the death of her friend hit her hard, she couldn't sum up the words to try and help Phineas further. For that she just stared at him, staying by his side, in hopes that he may break himself free of his grieving.

Rin had gone back to her dorm; the room was very quiet, with only the trickling of water being heard from a small fountain that she had bought just a few days ago. She walked over to the stand and stared into that very fountain and watched the water trickle down, normally around this time she'd heard all sorts of commotion outside, but instead all she heard was silence - with the exception being the elders and such who were going around making sure people were alright and no one else had been harmed.
Director of Music:
Phineas stood up, coming to a point where he couldn't just sit still for a moment longer. He got up slowly, the hand on his cane gripping the edge. He spoke softly, the edge still there, but not as prominent as it was a moment ago. His eyes were glassy, but he spoke slowly and deliberately so that Yoko would understand.
"I want to see him."
Kasawa Lanford:
Yoko sighed and glanced to her left. "Y-you know if you see him, it'll only cause you more grief right?" she said, choosing her words carefully, while she understood Phineas's desire to see Andy and his... body... she knew the sight would unnerve him and perhaps throw him into a fit of rage.

Rin wasn't going to be able to sleep; so instead she sat on the bed next to her twin sister and just caressed the girls hair, being the only person that Anise would see when the girl eventually woke up.

"Three lost, with just us two left?" One of the robed figures said when him and his companion got out of the wards that now protected the academy.
"Seem's so, though I know two are really dead and one was captured," the other figure said and glared at the wards in front of him. He tapped it with his wand, and was promptly met with a harsh electrical discharge that incinerated his staff. "Well damn..." the figure said, sounding a bit annoyed at this new development.
They both stood for a few seconds and pondered what to do next; had they just been on their guard they would've noticed a person walking up behind them carrying a large sickle that was hefted on their shoulder.
Director of Music:
"I...I know." Phineas stuttered, a mental image flashing through his brain at Andy's expression once again. "But I have to. I have to see him again, Yoko." He muttered. feverently.
Without waiting to see if she would follow, Phineas slowly made his way out and to the infirmary.
