The Day we still believed in the Invisible Bond - 07-Ghost Kapitel 88
"I'm Landkarte." The boy said cheerfully, holding his hand out in front of him.
Ea glanced at it apathetically, before looking back at the boy, his expression unchanging. Was this really one of the Seven Ghosts, he thought with slight increduality. He had honestly thought they'd have a much colder and wiser demeanour.
Still, the Ghost in front of him, Landkarte, was truly far too cheerful.
And the type he really wasn't good with.
"My hobby is trying the food at various places," Landkarte continued enthusiastically, and Ea blinked once. A glutton, perhaps? Or the type who skipped around the place merrily, without a care in the world? Probably the latter, the black haired boy decided after a moment.
"My favourite word is meikyoshisui."
Ea almost blinked in disbelief. The word certainly belayed his naivety and optimism, but it was ironic, too... very ironic, since they seemed to share favourite words.
Not noticing his reaction, Landkarte continued, his voice not taking a break from speaking, "My cause of death is drowning."
The boy fought the urge to snort. Drowning, huh. He momentarily wondered why he had been drowned, and how the boy could speak of his death so calmly.
"Pleased to meet you!" The boy finished, his smile genuine as he gazed at Ea.
Almost tentative, Ea raised his hand automatically, clasping Landkarte's and shaking it, his expression neutral.
Eyes widening slightly as a brief spark of warmth seemed to pass from the pale boy's fingertips to him, the dark haired noble paused, his slightly stunned look immediately replaced by indifference.
Letting his hand fall back to his side, the boy said after a moment, " ... Ea."

A/N - I read the translation a week ago, but inspiration only hit me when the scanlated chapter was released, and I thought, I just have to write this down! This is, as with all of my work, un-beta-ed. Please enjoy!
