[He should smile. Kevin, if not Uriel, is the smiling type. Except that the whole situation is too surrealistic for smiles. And the music is giving him a headache.]

Kevin Cecil, sir! [He shouts over the din while dodging a couple who is dancing in the most horrifically lewd fashion.] It is a pleasure to meet you!

[No, it really isn't. And the very thought of pleasure associated with this situation makes him blush like a red tomato. God, he should search for a table for them before he gets knocked off the dancing floor.]

[Yes, this is....not working. Sousei opens his mouth as if to respond, considers the music and general din, and frowns vaguely, before shaking his head. He doesn't think they're obligated to stay here, and--even if they are, he really, really doesn't care.]

Come on. Let's go elsewhere; it is too loud to converse in here.

[A beat. What he adds is said more quietly, so it may not be audible:]

Besides, the music is irritating.

[He's not really going to wait for agreement or permission, either; he turns on his heel immediately to lead the way out. Sorry Mabel.]

[personal profile] senseandcecilbility 2015-07-19 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
[ This is not working, but Kevin looks absolutely relieved at his date's suggestion. What a sensible gentleman. Now, finally, he can smile.]

That is no music, sir.

[When one is used to heavenly choirs, heck, even church choirs, one gets a little picky. He follows the man on light feet, paying attention to his back and trying to guess things about him from his look and posture Military? He'd bet military. As the music fades, he finds himself invaded by contentment. Nothing like horrible music to put one's life in perspective. It is like getting rid of a toothache.]
deontology: (LXX.)

[personal profile] deontology 2015-07-19 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
[Kevin's guess would be more or less right on the money, and Sousei's posture never changes from its military straightness; he doesn't relax easily, it seems.

Either way, he's also relieved by the lack of club music (and lights, and dancing) as they manage to make it outside, even if it doesn't show on his face all too much.]


No, I would not define it as music either. But it would appear someone does.

[He just waves a hand vaguely in the direction of their date spot, before shaking his head. Time to try this again.]

Good evening. My name is Abe no Sousei.
senseandcecilbility: (Totally caught red-handed)

[personal profile] senseandcecilbility 2015-07-19 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
Well met, Mister Sousei.

[Or whatever his family name is. Now comes one of the hardest parts of this whole mess, or so Kevin thinks.]

Please, forgive my boldness. I thought it would be proper to bring you a gift.

[His face on fire, he rummages his jacket and retrieves a heart-shaped chocolate box.

He considered flowers first, of course. One with the Victorian meaning of I'm scared. Go away. But this generation seems to be fond of chocolate, and so he thought there would be no harm to it.

Except that now he is offering a man a heart shaped chocolate box. Good job, Kevin. ]
deontology: (LXXIX.)

[personal profile] deontology 2015-07-19 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
[...............Ah.

He was really not expecting this, so his head slowly tilts despite himself, even as he vaguely arches an eyebrow. It's the mildest of surprised expressions on his face, but coming from him, it's basically total bemusement.

He accepts the chocolates, because he has no idea what else to do with them; he can't just leave Kevin standing there with heart-shaped chocolate box extended.

Sousei clears his throat, somewhat awkwardly.]


...Thank you. [Pro...bably....] I apologize. I did not think to bring a gift in return. [????]
senseandcecilbility: (Content)

[personal profile] senseandcecilbility 2015-07-19 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
[He brought nothing? Does that mean Mister Sousei is the lady of this relationship?

Kevin is starting to suspect the man is either secretly enraged or an even worse date than he is...which is not within the realm of possibility.]


Ah..Haha, there is nothing to apologize for, sir.

[Though now that he thinks about it, it would have been nice to get a gift too.]

Should we look for somewhere...quieter? [The angel asks, completely unaware of how bad that sounds.]
deontology: (LII.)

[personal profile] deontology 2015-07-20 06:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[The demure delicate lady, clearly. No he's just really bad at this and not necessarily pleased that he was signed up for a blind date (and not familiar with dates as a whole); he does feel awkward about it, a little, with that box of chocolates (HEART SHAPED...) tucked under his arm. Sorry, Kevin....]

That may be for the better, yes. [Is it better or worse that the implications passed him by too...can they possibly be this hopeless all at once...

Yes, apparently they can.]


Perhaps the gardens; they are not so far from here and they are much calmer than most places in this district.
senseandcecilbility: (london)

[personal profile] senseandcecilbility 2015-07-21 10:10 am (UTC)(link)
[That's not how you carry a chocolate box, sir. Have you never received a chocolate box before? Oh, forge that. At least Mister Sousei mentioned something familiar that does not involve people dancing in a most regrettable fashion.]

Oh, the gardens! I say, what a lovely idea. Young master and I go there quite often for the fresh air and pictures.

[A lovely place. Also dark and technology-deprived. Nobody will see him dating a dude.]
deontology: (XX.)

[personal profile] deontology 2015-07-22 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[No......... should he have........

Ahem. That is. Yes, into the gardens with them, where it's dark and technology-deprived and quiet and there is nobody there to see them on this awkward failure of a date.]


"Young master"...? [???]
senseandcecilbility: (This time I messed up)

[personal profile] senseandcecilbility 2015-07-27 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
[Sousei no.

However, his date's questions causes a small degree of anxiety. Normally, he'd be happy to babble about his young master, but what if the gentleman comes to the conclusions that this completely inexistent relationship is beneath his station?]


My apologies, sir. However, I should clarify that I am merely a butler.. [Does he know what a butler is?] A house servant. I hope that is not a problem.

[Don't be so anxious, Kevin, he was just curious!!!

That gets an arched eyebrow from Sousei, before he shakes his head.]


No, it is not.

[should...it be.......... this isn't a real date, is it?]

It was only curiosity. Don't feel the need to answer any questions that you don't wish to.
senseandcecilbility: by roleplay-reaction-icons (surprise)

[personal profile] senseandcecilbility 2015-07-27 04:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh no, sir. You may ask as you please. [Except about that part in which he is a heavenly creature guarding the reincarnation of a biblical king, otherwise he would have to explain to young master why his first date ended up in brainwashing.] Speaking of which, may I ask what do you do for a living?

[His actual question is are you rich, dear sir?. Nothing personal, but the Twining family is a little desperate when it comes to things like debts and bankruptcy. Dating a pauper just won't do!

A few individuals who wander dark, deserted places in the middle of the night in search of clueless outsiders with deep pockets seem to share his curiosity. Kevin wonders why they are being surrounded by men wearing socks on their faces. He is about to inquire if they are overly concerned garden keepers when one of them points a gun at his face.

Now, that is utterly inappropriate. He was not even picking flowers this time!]

[are you scoping him out

Okay, but Sousei doesn't actually connect the pieces; asking about what he does after he asked Kevin in turn is only natural, really. He's opening his mouth to respond when...well.

Are they really getting mugged here............... Like, people point weapons at Sousei all the time, but he can't remember the last time they were such nonentities as this. But also, he doesn't like being interrupted, and that's incredibly rude, pointing a gun at his date like that.

So it's with an aggravated sigh that Sousei moves, lifting his still-sheathed sword to neatly strike the gun out of the man's hand. A second precise blow puts the mugger on the ground as Sousei slams his sword into the pressure point at his jaw. He doesn't even bother to unsheathe his weapon, honestly, and the chocolates remain neatly tucked under his other arm.

A glance at the others, and he arches an eyebrow.]


Go away. We're busy, and don't have time for this.

[He'll beat them all up if he has to, but he'd really rather they just leave them alone... so they can get back to their date??? Well, okay, he's not in that much of a hurry, but it still seems rude to leave Kevin there watching while Sousei beats people up. Poor date etiquette or something.]
senseandcecilbility: (destroy all enemies)

1/2

[personal profile] senseandcecilbility 2015-07-29 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[It might be Sousei's awesome display of swordsmanship...or maybe the suddenly murderous look on his date's face. Maybe a little of both, or rather a lot of both. Whichever the case, the remaining muggers run for dear life. And the fallen man scurries after his accomplices as soon as he recovers.]
senseandcecilbility: (stained glass)

[personal profile] senseandcecilbility 2015-07-29 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[Kevin lets out a small sigh, murder intent gone as if it never existed. He offers Sousei a look that is both surprised and grateful and, at that moment, there is something really pure and beautiful about him.]

Thank you, Mister Sousei. You are a true gentleman.

...A soldier, I presume?

[Now, a military career does have some interesting rewards, and nice pensions for widows.]

[He's blissfully oblivious to that murderous look, eyes having been trained on their opponents; it's a pleasant surprise that they give up that easily, but he's not going to look a gift horse in the mouth.

Instead, he resettles his sword at his side, and nods simply.]


That is correct enough. I am the commander of a force to defend my country, in my world and time.

[so not just a soldier, but a commander too!!!!

still not rich though.]


It has little bearing on things here, though.
senseandcecilbility: (Content)

[personal profile] senseandcecilbility 2015-07-31 12:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[A commander!

A commander!

Forget the muggers, Mister Sousei has just become more attractive...in a completely pure way that has nothing to do with sodomy.]


Forgive me for saying so, sir, but your deeds have just proven otherwise. May I ask what is your current occupation?

[If young master and he evolved from completely bankrupt to people who actually earn some money, imagine what could happen to a commander in a place like this!]
deontology: (LXIV.)

[personal profile] deontology 2015-08-01 05:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[You're going to be let down so hard, Kevin.... Sousei quirks an eyebrow at that, failing to see what that has to do with anything, before he finally answers.]

I work at the dojo here, and assist in teaching kendo. [also he's part of the cerealia terrorist group] I am not interested in contributing any further to this city in any possible way.

[He was offered a similar position in the police force, but he turned it down..... not interested in helping these assholes in charge, thanks.]
senseandcecilbility: (good times with Solomon)

[personal profile] senseandcecilbility 2015-08-10 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
[Those are the most important questions!]

Dojo? [Kendo? What are those uncivilized words? However, he does understand teaching. Now, teachers have status, don't they? He can imagine Sousei as a retired military person teaching at a respectable university. Now, that would be comfortable, wouldn't it?

Alas, his next words distract him a little from his mental balance sheet.]


Indeed, sir. I do not intend to assist them aside from assuring my young master's safety...That is my priority, you see.

[He hopes Sousei doesn't have anything against single parents.]
deontology: (LXX.)

[personal profile] deontology 2015-08-10 06:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[Kevin, don't be silly, Sousei wouldn't know how to retire if it smacked him in the face.

But he nods simply at that, understanding. He has nothing against single parents, no-- that is, he has people here he also has to protect, so he can definitely understand Kevin's reasoning and purpose there.]


What is his name?

[tell him about your kids-- okay no that's a lie, he wants to know because:]

Should I see him in a dangerous situation, I will see what I can do to also see to his safety. [because it's his job, naturally.]
senseandcecilbility: (forgiven?)

[personal profile] senseandcecilbility 2015-08-11 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
[Kevin dreams about retirement and a nice pension too. But then again, he has been working since the beginning of time.

And then Sousei has just become even sexier than before. Protecting young master, he said? BETTER THAN MONEY.]


William Twining, sir. His name is William Twining.

[Here, have a daguerreotype of a grumpy young man in a Victorian suit.]
deontology: (XXVIII.)

[personal profile] deontology 2015-08-11 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
[Ah yes, good, he can inspect that daguerrotype and try to commit that grumpy face to memory. Kevin's been polite despite both of their obvious discomfort during this date; it's the least he can do to at least make sure his young master is safe if he ever sees him in trouble.

So he'll nod in response a moment later.]


Very well then. I will keep his face and name in mind.

[he'll fight off monsters too if he must.]
senseandcecilbility: (the unfairness)

[personal profile] senseandcecilbility 2015-08-11 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
[What a kind and respectable gentleman, not to mention a person who both wishes to protect young master and is not a demon. Such a rarity! For a moment, Kevin is moved beyond words.]

...I too would be glad to assist anyone you care for.

[As long as they are not demons, that is. It takes William's puppy eyes to persuade him to break that divine rule. But honestly, it is only polite to offer Sousei his help after that A gentleman like him probably only knows perfectly normal humans, right?]
deontology: (LXX.)

[personal profile] deontology 2015-08-11 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Normally, he would not ask (and can this guy even fight, he looks so...prim and proper...), but... Sousei has realized for himself that he cannot always be where he needs to be in this place.

It only makes sense to take advantage of an offer like that.]


Kumou Soramaru and Kumou Chuutarou are my charges here. [aka he is also a Single Dad currently. But he'll offer up their contact pictures so that Kevin knows what they look like, at least. Look at those cute kids.]

I would appreciate it if you would look after them if they find themselves in any trouble.
