Ai no Kusabi belongs to the respective owners of this series and not me.
Riki...
The name seemed to have lingered on your tongue and mind ever since his departure. Even with the most peaceful and mystical piece of music could not get him out of your still-organic mind.
You chuckle bitterly at that thought, how much can a single Blondie fall? To the extent that your system might fail from your constant heartbeat that raced, like the way Riki flew away to freedom?
Though it can't be blamed on him that you, yourself had let him go from the golden cage that you had intricately and carefully crafted for over 3 years. It was just not to be blamed on that dastardly mongrel.
Wether it was his fault or not that your heart displayed such subtle but still present lines of pain, cruelty and longing, it was clear from the start when you had taken interest in him - you were already beyond any help. You had already fallen too far in to be repaired with any kind of AI technology.
You finally left your little unsafe haven of music, and made your way to the ceiling to floor window that displayed the whole city of Tanagura.
The glass of wine in your hand forgotten wit carelessness. Your perfect profile was taut with tension as you unconsciously called out, "Riki..."
What have you done to me?
Hey guys! This was inspired by the 2012 ova scene where Iason is sitting in the middle of all this holograms and stuff like that...
And special thanks to guest member "Kate" for taking the time to review!
