[ perhaps to the surprise of no one, majima is at the bar. he's just smoking at the counter with a half-empty glass in front of him. ]
Hah? Worryin' about me? C'mon, kid, there're plenty of other people here you could be checkin' up on instead.
[ while majima himself is largely unaffected, his chao with its dumb little eyepatch looks up at yves, the dot on top of its head turning into a question mark. ]
[ grabbin a (rolls dice) zin off the shelf then and pouring a glass out for yves! ]
I hang out at the bar a lot. Gotten around to chattin' 'em up on Thursday nights especially. That ain't gonna be a secret, given how the last couple of Saturdays have gone.
[ that is fine with him! he figures he may as well pour himself some too, since the bottle's open and everything. ]
S'what the Angels said, ain't it? That we should be expectin' to keep doin' this song and dance until they figure out where everyone's souls are goin'.
But it's still difficult. I know pretty much everyone here isn't equipped to handle this much responsibility over people's souls, not to mention the grief and loss at the same time.
[ oof. but also, majima knows what he said. though he doesn't look at yves, he keeps an impassive expression on his face, a low, even tone in his voice. ]
Listen, I ain't gonna get all preachy and tell ya how to live yer life or whatever. But if yer heart bleeds for everyone else, there ain't gonna be anything left to keep it pumpin' sooner rather than later.
week 2, friday
Ah, Majima... Are you doing okay?

I try to check up on everyone. Would hate for you to be left out just because everyone assumes you're okay... even if I'm glad to hear that you are.
no subject
Heh, more that I'm an old man who doesn't need to be worried about, but hey, who'm I to tell ya how to spent yer time?
[ he turns to look at yves. ]
Do ya drink?
no subject
Though I try to watch my intake on the weekends since trial's a bad time to be hungover, I'd be happy to join you if you'll have me.
[ said like he didn't just hop up to the bar already ]

[ he'll sip on it through their conversation at least, but he's a lightweight so just the one glass is good ]
Ah... makes sense. Seems like we're doing this again...

... yeah. And the cause of it all.
But it's still difficult. I know pretty much everyone here isn't equipped to handle this much responsibility over people's souls, not to mention the grief and loss at the same time.
no subject
Is that what ya feel? Grief?

Do you feel the word is incorrect?

I don't think I'm meant to be sustainable then.

no subject
Aren't we already dead, Majima? I don't think my blood's pumping much of anything anymore.
no subject
Last couple weeks have showed we definitely still got somethin' in our veins that makes ugly red stains if it gets on anything.
