Sure, sure, that's what life is. It's fucking dandy one moment then bam, once you are happy, they'll just take what you love the most away from you.
[Iruka sighs, and just hangs there beside Kakashi. It's harder to accept reality after you've burried the dead. After you've mourned. Only to have that wound ripped open and for it to begin healing somehow, after you've accepted the fact that yes, maybe, this is real. They take all that away from you and you will have to bury the already dead and mourn once more.]
Well no thank you. I don't want that. I don't want to keep burying the dead. It isn't real, this isn't living.
[Iruka pulls away from Kakashi and straightens himself.]
You know what sucks, though? I actually want to stay. I can grow to like it here. And I hate myself, for that. I'm going to get another drink.
