Complaints...?

[deniles]

If you have any complaints about my behavior, please press 1.

[ooc: Note that this icly will lead right back to Niles's inbox as a troll maneuver.]

[brynwieldr]

I have a son.

[action] - morning of the 16th

[saikusu]

[Not long after he got up, Saïx runs into who he presumes is Niles in the temple. Unless there's someone else who fits Leo's description of him who would have reason to be in his temple at this time of day, it has to be him.]

I don't know if Leo has informed you yet, but I have been assigned as a second shinki for him.

[brynwieldr]

Niles.

[Leo tracks Niles down after the cleaning and the whole fiasco with that jackass talking to Forrest]

I just realized that in the chaos of the last day I may not have informed you that I was apparently assigned a second shinki. His name is Saix.

[ Niles' phone will ring precisely one and a half times before whomever was on the other end decides to hang up. ]

April 30th

[saikusu]

[On the evening of April 30th, Saïx places two take-out containers of fried rice from the god Thanatos in the fridge. One has Leo's name on it and the other has Niles's name. Aside from that, there's no other indication of what it is. Despite being healed from eating the meal, he's too tired to bother with letting either of them know that there's food for them in the fridge. He just goes right to bed.

The food will be there the next time Niles goes to get something to eat. While Saïx is fairly certain Niles has no injuries to be healed, he didn't want to leave him out by bringing food for Leo and not for him. Besides, maybe the gesture might get Niles speaking to him.]

voicemail, after his call to Forrest

[brynwieldr]

...Niles.

[He takes a breath]

I...realize my frustration over being left out of the loop regarding you and Forrest prevented me from thanking you for protecting him. [He also forgot that he needed to actually say that with Niles now] So. Thank you. I don't have many people here I trust and care for, and Forrest is one of those people.

As are you. I just don't think I'm very good at expressing that. So, yes, thank you.

[chickshades]

Hey, you up?

[ It's like 2:30 am. ]

after that BBS post, voice

[brynwieldr]

Was that really necessary, Niles?

voice ; July 6th

[brynwieldr]

I kissed him.

picture text | July 13th

[brynwieldr]

[Insert picture of a box of soundproofing foam here, followed by a proper text:]

I bought enough for your room, my room, and at least two others, just in case. I don't care how long we've known each other, I do not want to hear you having sex.

And I'm pretty sure no one wants to hear me having sex, either.

[welcome_home]

[ Niles' phone rings a few nights after everyone returns to their normal ages, a tentative Nanako on the line. ]

Hi, Mister Niles! It's Nanako.

i was at cons so belated july 20-ish

[socials]

Excuse me for the text from a stranger, but my sister Nanako gave me your number.
Niles, right? Whenever you have the time, via text or call, I'd like to go over her request.
I don't have any problem with her learning to shoot - in fact, I'm relieved someone can teach her - but it'd make me feel better if we could talk about it first.

July 26th, after Shizuo's text

[toremainbehind]

Stop hitting on my lookalike. I don't need texts complaining about you.

text message

[brynwieldr]

I am thinking of opening the hot springs to the heavens at large. Should we hire someone to keep the peace or do we trust the people here enough to let them do it themselves?

Voice

[wadoichimonji]

Niles, do you know a blond guy who's stupid strong and hot as hell?

probably somewhere on the late Aug 31 or very early Sep 1

[futhark]

That boyfriend of yours is certainly a piece of work.

Just had to leave that here.

dated sept 18

[wadoichimonji]

Do you still love me?

voicemail | IC November 12th

[brynwieldr]

This is me checking in to let you know I haven't vanished.

Nov 22

[reformedsinner]

[After the Capypa Land outing, Niles will find a neatly wrapped gift at his doorstep. It contains a Capypa-themed T-shirt in garish bright yellow and red, and an enclosed note:

I realized I still owe you a shirt. Happy belated birthday! - Hakkai]

December 24th

[pure_radiantics]

[ Niles receives a decorative eyepatch since Kairi can't remember if he has to wear THAT one all the time, or if he's switched them out for formal occasions. Regardless, it looks really cool, and she thinks it's up his alley. ]

Merry Christmas, Niles!

Thank you for supporting Forrest and for coming to the events I've hosted as well. Good friends are important and I'm glad that you're still here to be one for so many people I know and care about.

- Kairi
