[Now here is someone who hasn't been seen around in a while--one (1) Yusuke Urameshi is making his way across the beach, jacket filled with various fruits slung over his shoulder to boot. There's nothing out of the ordinary about this picture (minus the fact he's actually doing work for once) but as he continues on, more and more things seem off. His gait is slightly sluggish, as if he'd just exhausted himself from a strenuous exercise, and every so often, he pauses his trek to put a hand over where his heart would be. Frowning as if he's distracted by something, he resumes his walk, only to repeat the process a few minutes later.]

Dammit...bad enough this place decided to go all tribal on us without warning, but now this? You'd think after years of having this thing ticking, it wouldn't feel so weird, but...sheesh.

[Care to interrupt his musings?]

... Your heart?

[lolspiritfinger.livejournal.com]

[OH SUP TEAR--and nodding]

Yeah, it's the weirdest thing. It's actually been moving lately. [oblivious to the fact right now that THAT IS WEIRD TOO]

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

Why-- how did it not move before?

[lolspiritfinger.livejournal.com]

...long story. Veeeery long story.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... Right. I won't ask.

[most-talented.livejournal.com]

Yusuke... Can you talk to me? You've been avoiding the subject all day with me.

[lolspiritfinger.livejournal.com]

I told you, it's nothing to worry about! I'm...[whoops his heartbeat distracted him again]

...I'm fine.

[most-talented.livejournal.com]

Yusuke.

[starting to walk faster now OH GOD DOES NOT WANNA FREAK YOU OUT OVER THIS]

[fortitude-creed.livejournal.com]

Ticking?

[lolspiritfinger.livejournal.com]

Er...yeah. Not literally, if that's what you're thinking.

[fortitude-creed.livejournal.com]

...?

[lolspiritfinger.livejournal.com]

Aaaah...forget I said anything, okay? It's a long story to get into.

[persuadebyforce.livejournal.com]

Uh oh, did you turn into a reverse zombie?

*still 100% demon over here :B*

[lolspiritfinger.livejournal.com]

[LUCKY BASTARD--]

Doubt it. I'd be moving a lot quicker if that were the case, right?

[persuadebyforce.livejournal.com]

Hmph. Maybe you need to bite somebody to get the juices flowing?

[lolspiritfinger.livejournal.com]

Eeeeew, I didn't even wanna do that when my heart wasn't beating!

PLACEHOLDER sob work

[Carrying an armload of fruits in her left one, here be a Genkai who is in a similar situation, exception she isn't one to dwell on it.]

--You alright?

S'COOL

[lolspiritfinger.livejournal.com]

[Well, she isn't the one dealing with a suddenly working heart, but at the very least, he knows he can confide in her about it.]

...sorta.

Genkai, demons don't randomly get heartbeats, do they?

[ooc: .. this is why I should not rush a tag when I have two minutes left in my lunch break. You mis-read things and mess up. Pretend you didn't read what was in the brackets in the first tag. SO NO THERE.]

Not if they didn't already have a heart to begin with. And I'm using that term very loosely. Most demons that have any organs at all just end up having themselves gutted in the end anyway.

[I SEE NOTHING '3'a]

[snorts] Looks like I wound up the lucky one, then. Hiei and Kurama told me as much once I got reborn again, but...unless I'm getting premature demon heart attacks, I think the island messed with me somehow.

[spellcast]

[HEY I KNOW YOU]

...! Yusuke!

[lolspiritfinger.livejournal.com]

[OH SNAP I KNOW YOU TOO--and actually looking surprised for once!]

...Sabrina? You're back? Holy jeez, I really did miss a lot of stuff.

[spellcast]

In the flesh! And ready for another round of Survivor: Inter-dimensional Edition!

[lolspiritfinger.livejournal.com]

Hah, don't you sound cheery over it! I think that sums up this place pretty well right about now, though.
