[ okay, the thing about getting blasted into smithereens by a giant snake god is that you don't expect to wake up again. so it's to koutarous's most unexpected surprise that he finds himself opening his eyes again. flashing lights, blinding white everywhere, and then-- people. lining the streets, chattering up and down, running away from .... white... things. thingies. look, he's from ye olde japan okay he doesn't know shit like this. but all he knows is that whatever this is pales in comparison to the weird dream he had about a bunch of pictures on thin air telling him that his world is destroyed, and even that pales to the fact that he got burnt to death by a giant snake, so. all in all, this afterlife is within the normal range of weird in any given day of koutarou's life (unlife now, i guess). account for awful things as usual, and move on.
and so he does. seeing as he's in hell and everyone's dead, he makes no real move to hide himself, opting to curiously examine (judge) the weird contraptions and the moving white thingies, not particularly caring if he bumped into people or found himself stared at (something about bandages and half a broken fox mask tends to make undead people stare, apparently, he doesn't know, they're dead too, why is this so weird), though he makes no move to actually talk to anyone either. this would've continued if it hadn't been for the weird... moving carriage that appears to move without the aid of horses or cows, which is odd enough on its own. the screams coming from the tunnels are also quite weird as well.
but hey, this is hell, and it's not like he can die again. he soon finds himself catapulting into the tunnels on that contraption, calmly holding onto his mask and... oddly enjoying himself, in a weird, non-emotive sort of way. this is weird, but the wind is nice against his bandages. if hell's got stuff like this, maybe he won't be bored here for an eternity or whatever.
that is, until the sword-wielding thingies come out, and he discovers another interesting thing about hell: things will try to kill him despite the fact that he's dead.
ok.
being shanking is what fuuma ninja does best, he gets right down to it. if he happens almost shank the person in the rollercoaster with him? well, he hadn't meant it, but hey, he'd take the extra carnage. ]

[ you're probably just minding your own business, when suddenly-- bots flood your area. no i'm serious, snowmen brandishing swords are all up your wazoo, yelling christmas lyrics and trying (in vain) to stab the white-haired blur that moves past you, almost knocking you over. three seconds later, a large kunai shatters the top of a robot, and another three robots go the way of the dodo before the kunai all but pins your sleeve to a fucking wall--
the bandaged, white-haired guy lands on the ground in front of you, and then, through his half-broken fox mask, linefaces. with an impatient gesture of his hand: ]
Give it back.
[ yeah, he's expecting you to give back the weapon that just pinned you to a wall. he's a real charmer. ]
