(fic) wo ai ni: voice

Characters/Pairings: Suboshi, Miaka Yuki

He hates her voice, chattering non-stop, going on and on and on. It is high-pitched, shrill, with not one iota of calm or maturity -

as he steps forward, wobbling, bloody.

She’s no longer talking as she catches his fall, cushions his head in her lap; her sobs broken, dry and rasping - hiccupping horribly as if she’s choking in each breathe.

Now she’s whispering his name, again and again, chanting it desperately like a sacred mantra.

Closing his eyes, he decides - just this once, he likes it.

It’s still nothing compared to his brother’s flute, of course.
