Summary: Fai and his brother mark time.
Cold-chapped hands seek and grab; tiny, frail limbs heave. Breath pants in desperate lungs as the boy, his face and limbs gaunt from too-long starvation, drags one cold, heavy body endlessly atop another.
"Fai!" he shouted in a cracked voice up to the sky. "Fai!"
"Yuui," the weak reply floats down to him.
"Guess what it is this time, Fai!" The tiny figure bounces impatiently atop his creation, awaiting an answer.
There's a long pause, before the voice finally answers. "...it's the 'Leaning Tower of Pisa,' Yuui. Again."
"Damn! Okay, best one hundred twenty-five out of two hundred fifty?"
