[ Professionally speaking, Hikaru Shinta has been really, really good and professional about all of this. In the past three weeks, he has had to deal with his boyfriend dying, said boyfriend becoming a Card, getting into a massive argument with boyfriend, finding out that his not!geist best friend (who was also an ex-lover that he valued very much, by the way) is dying, fixing the ritual to prevent said not!geist best friend from dying, and then handling all of the Vigil stuff that comes with all of that with amazing efficiency.
The trade-off? He's shut himself up in his home at Kibo ever since Makoto Kuzunoha became a Reaper. He doesn't go out unless he's on Duty (which he has increased from the original 21:00-03:00 to 19:00-07:00), and he's ordered the Zashiki-Warashi to only come around when he tells them to. He's also not all that good at responding to calls, texts, or messages over the network. The people who have managed to see him all say the same thing: he is Fucked Up; they also end up having to force Hikaru to let them stay. Most people, though, are turned away at the door.
You're welcome to try and see him, though. Trying is always good, right? ]
