RUI CHAO YANG
[align=center]everywhere, bad people are there.

it was hard for rui to believe in anything at this point, nonetheless a few words he had muttered in an attempt to ease the pain. but, even so, there was truth behind the words; if he didn't mean it, he wouldn't have said anything to begin with. "there's no use in blaming anyone now," he sighed, both physical and emotional exhaustion beginning to take a toll on him. his words were true, though. they were stuck together now, and they couldn't do anything to change that. they might as well embrace it while they're still together. "it's okay, aika. really."
rui carefully watched the other's movements as he reached for the stars once more, only this time it was so much... sadder. there was no joy in his eyes, but rather an expression of loss, defeat; something that rui never thought he'd see in the other. it was disheartening, really, to see the one person who he always knew had a spark in his eyes look so dull.
and even when his fingers tangled themselves in his hair, a gesture of comfort that he had grown quite familiar with through the years, it still wasn't right. he knew that akia was wounded from this, even if he would never admit it. he cried harder into his skin, unable to stop the tears from flowing. sobbing wouldn't open the wall back, he knew this, but the tidal wave of emotions that had built up over the night decided to pour out all at once.
after a few moments, he was able to calm down. swiping at the remnants of tears on his cheeks, he turned away from akia's neck, instead focusing his gaze ahead of him. a shaky exhale escaped him as he drew his legs closer to his chest. "sorry." he muttered, sniffing once before closing his eyes.
as the other began to speak, things started to feel a little familiar. with his eyes shut, there was no stretch of unknown land before him, only darkness. akia's voice filled his ears, and if he squeezed his eyes hard enough, he could imagine that they were back outside of his house only an hour or so ago. his house, with all of his things, memories, that he'll never see again. rui sighed.
akia's abundance of knowledge truly fascinated rui. he was aware of how much the other enjoyed learning about the world beyond, but he never took much thought to it. now, as they find themselves apart of the beyond, he couldn't help but be grateful for his friend's intelligence. he didn't give him enough credit.
the idea of more than just this wasteland beyond them seemed unrealistic. it seemed as though there would be nothing but dirt and dead trees in their surroundings for whatever time they had left. regardless, the other's touch and words brought comfort to rui, even if he still struggled to muster up a smile. in a way, the warm feeling rui had experienced back in the clearing had returned. his cheeks burned in the slightest, accompanied by akia's close proximity, but it wasn't the same. it was sadder, and somehow, lonelier.
"where did you find all of this out?" the brunette spoke softly, "i mean, you know so much. oh-seens?" he tripped over the unfamiliar word, knitting his eyebrows in confusion. "do you really think we can find them?"
rui pressed against the other's touch, feeling a need to get closer for whatever reason. he blamed it on his poor mental state. "back there," the brunette started, unsure of how to properly iterate his feelings. "at the stars. did you feel it too?" rui looked down at his hands, picking away at the caked dirt from his fall. he huffed in frustration, wrapping his arms back around his knees. "that feeling? i don't really know what i'm saying, but it was weird. and i-i don't know. just ignore me."
