[masakados]

Sure, lots. I'd keep you smalltalking for ages, if you let me.

[But, snorting at himself, he gestures with a hand.] But we're getting close. Guess today we ended up lucky.

[No spooks... Yet.]

[yourotherleft]

[linefaces at him so hard]

I know exactly where it is, shut up.

[the gym and their apartment, somehow he's got those down by now]

Fine, then. I wouldn't mind kicking your ass around the training room now and then.

[floralprophecy]

Hmm... what if we removed its power source first? Is it possible to remove or disable it with, well, just plain brute force?

[dereban]

We probably could just destroy it...

[unathletic]

[ It's an awkward feeling, okay. Because on one hand that should be ridiculous. It shouldn't be possible, nothing like that would ever happen in their world.. but it would in this place. And it makes Heung Soo just uneasy enough that he isn't able to just keep lying here with Nam Soon while he can't know for sure if both of them are safe.

He has to check. Even if he's just being paranoid, even if it's stupid.. he just has to. Even if it's briefly - and it plans on making it briefly, since he too - even if he doesn't whine about it - prefers lying here, warm and cozy next to Nam Soon. ]

I'll go look. [ And before the other can protest, he's already moving to sit up, the covers sliding off them a little bit with the motion. ] .. Just a moment.

[ In other words, "don't worry, I'll be right back." ]

[serving_love]

[Eye rolllll, but he mostly leaves that alone.]

Yeah, I bet you wouldn't.

[Then, finally, he pushes himself up off the couch and briefly stretches his arms up and out before letting one fall, the other hand scratching the back of his head.]

Bed. Night, marimo. Pancakes for breakfast tomorrow -- or later today. Whatever.

[Speaking around a yawn toward the end there as he turns to head back to his room.]

[sewayaku]

[ Ah. See, he'd rather not wait until he's about to be injured to know what he's up against. Still, it's good to have confirmation that he's not losing his mind here; there is something going on. ]

... I see. Thank you for checking. [ a pause. ] I suppose we'd best get going before it does try to hurt us. It doesn't sound friendly.

[rebelia]

[It's true. They've yet to encounter anything. On second thought, that stirs suspicion in IV, and he glances around their visible surroundings.]

If you'd call this "lucky" . . . Well, I suppose it's the best we could have hoped for here.

[masakados]

[Nothing trying to kill them is "lucky" in Naoki's book okay-- Naoki's steps slow and he looks around too.

And because we can't have them go completely un-spooked, something cold elicits shivers along Naoki's back and he stiffens in preparation for a blow. But there's nothing, just a cold feeling like he walked through a patch of frigid air.]

And I'd sure like it if it just stayed like this. [Muttering to the air...]

[undaunts]

Y...es? Is that a trick question?

[yuri please!!!]

I mean, you're acting kinda shy!

[fatalstriker]

I'm starting to think your definition of shy is different from mine.

[rebelia]

[With so little else to see, Naoki's going rigid doesn't escape IV's limited vision. He gives Naoki an inquisitive look. The following mutter doesn't seem to match what he just saw.]

Something wrong?

[unpresidential]

Yah...

[that's not what nam soon wanted him to do at all! sure, someone probably needed to go check, but all the same, he doesn't like it. all it takes is moments for things to go terribly wrong around here, especially in the dead of night when nobody is suspecting it.

so it's almost immediate that nam soon tenses, forcing himself to sit up. seriously, this bastard. getting up, ruining the one comfortable thing this night has had. of course he's going to be whiny and grumbly about this, how can he not. and furthermore, how can he not worry, when anything can happen?

heung soo's not the only one who has paranoia about things, even if it manifests in an entirely different way.]

[floralprophecy]

You mean just smash it up? Yes, that would be the easiest way, I suppose

... but it seems like such a waste. I was thinking that the parts might be reusable somehow.

[undaunts]

...Not willing to play imagination games with me!

[so there.]

It's a very malleable definition.

[masakados]

Just got a bad feeling.

[But things are quiet around them and nothing seems to be happening... Naoki's not quick to chalk it up to his imagination, but still, nothing immediately comes swooping down on them or anything.]

[fatalstriker]

I don't think "malleable" is the word you're looking for here. Unless your definition of malleable is... malleable.

[rebelia]

If you got a bad feeling, it must mean something.

[No sooner after he says this does a whisper seem to pass through his ears. It's a suspicious, strange sound that doesn't seem to have come from Naoki. IV scowls.]

. . . Did you say something?

[undaunts]

...It...is?

[said so weakly.

gosh yuri stop harshing on her groove]

[scenting]

[ she can't help but let out a snort at that ]

My gut tells me that most people are stupid and don't make any sense. My gut also tells me to bite people when they get too annoying. Don't think a lot of people like that either.

[rebelia]

[ maybe they deserve it. ]

It's a learning opportunity for them just as much as it is for you. Give it time and you'll get used to the social norms.

[scenting]

[ not... wrong, no. she just sighs. ]

That's what everyone says but...

[ a shrug and hey! they're approaching the residential district! ]

Where do you live anyway?

[rebelia]

[ that kind of information is no longer a secret, so he tells her the apartment building. ]

I can find my way from here. Don't you have somewhere to be?

[ such as her own place? ]

[scenting]

[ !!! ]

Oh, right. Yeah, I'm gonna go home.

[ and that's just... what she does?? she'll give a short wave to iv before turning and heading down the other block. see you later, iv. don't get eaten. ]

[masakados]

Nope.

[The back of his neck is prickling... Naoki rolls his shoulders, eyes narrowing and the fire growing larger in his hand.]

I think we can assume we're not alone here.
