Iiiit's me again! I wanted to do another one today for you all! I'm thinking of doing one for Maho, would you guys be interested in it? How ever you feel about it, drop me a line! It's still up it the air, and if I do decide to do it, I'm not going to hold it hostage for reviews.
However! First person to drop a line about it, you will get a oneshot for your troubles! Just tell me what you want, and I'll do my best for you! I'll be checking to see who's first, and I will send you a message back.
Ryuusuke didn't really want to end Beck, but a deal was a deal. Besides, he had a loophole! Sykes never said they couldn't get back together, right?
He left Japan to find something that would get him off their backs for awhile. It wasn't that he didn't care about them, it was that to go farther and to get where they wanted, he had to get Sykes off their backs. To do that, he had to leave them. (Plus, he didn't want Goldie, or whatever his name was, to kill him after Grateful Sound.) Maho actually knew where he was, but she promised not to tell anyone for him. Sadly, things didn't turn out exactly how he planned.
He hadn't really meant what he had said to Chiba the last time he had seen him, but he had just been so stressed it slipped out. They all deserved to be in the band, even if they weren't quite up to his level.
When he found out they were in America, he was surprised at how bad they were doing without him. While Koyuki was great at holding the band together, he wasn't enough to keep them at the level that they were at. For that they needed him. He was kind of pissed that they were doing so bad without him, but at the same time, he was glad that it showed that they needed him so much. I mean really? Almost getting kicked off the tour? Couldn't they have at least found a fill in? But when they told him that they weren't going to play with anyone but the original members, he was flattered.
He was surprised that they even wanted them back, after everything that he had done to them. He was straight mean to Chiba, and he didn't treat Koyuki the best, either. Thinking back, he probably treated Koyuki the worst. He had been mean to him about the guitar, yelled at him when he got sick, even though it happened when he had been practicing like he had told him to, been mean about his lyrics. Wow, he was mean to the poor boy... Because of that, he was surprised to see them all at the grave, waiting, for him! Because he was one of them, even thought he was mean, and tended to treat them all badly.
It wasn't that he didn't care about them, it was that to go farther and to get where they wanted, he had to get Sykes off their backs. To do that, he had to leave them. (Plus, he didn't want Goldie, or whatever his name was, to kill him after Grateful Sound.) But now they were all together again, and they were finally on their way!
