I'll happily listen to their complaints after they've stopped crying. And really, being kind isn't always about other people. I, Nanoha, don't want to see anyone hurt, and I can't do that by becoming a shut-in because then I'd have to deal with the destructive guilt that says "you could have done something." I don't want to be a hero, I'm just me, Nanoha.

[The moment Yang disappears, Richter immediately reached out to her but only grabbed air.

Today really was an off day.

A feral rage rushed through his veins as the lizardmen started to come out of the wood work. Slowly his hand did also start to blur as he engages his enemies in a blind fury.

A few minutes later, he does glitch out of the system as he was about to snap the neck of a lizardman.]

--?! What? Where?

[dereban]

I don't really care if it's cool or not.

[ Just get rid of it. ] I have my bookbag... but that's it.

[sewayaku]

I was attempting to get home. I live in an apartment complex a little ways south of here... probably.

[ "probably," because he's no longer certain where he is... but he's hoping he's right. Banking on it, actually. The last thing he needs to do is get even more lost out here when it's potentially dangerous. ]

[Looks vaguely offended.]

The hell I couldn't. Ain't any different here than back home.

[Because, you know, Sanji obviously smacks Zoro around SO EASILY back in their world and all...

Although -- he sits up a little, like a light bulb just suddenly went off in his head.]

Which means I'm the strongest thing you've got, too. [Grins a little smugly.] If you wanna spar or something, marimo, just ask.

\o/

[yourotherleft]

Yeah, and when was the last time you actually beat me at anything? Number seven.

[you know, just to rub that in some more. Ugh, but he didn't think of that. Is this really all he has to look forward to? Weak swordsmen of all ilks and then...the cook? His life.]

I don't need to, I get plenty of exercise. You, on the other hand, I ain't so sure about.

[unathletic]

[ It's a nice calm. Not to mention that there's nothing more relieving in the world to Heung Soo than to see his best friend doing well. And he can feel Nam Soon calming down, his breath evening out a little more under his arm. This place is constantly threatening. Not always in downright violent ways (although those sure are there, and those days are the worst), but sometimes also just in the general paranoia that this place causes. You never know what's going to happen, and the danger is always hanging thick in the air - like these weird dreams, like some weird sort of omen after all the stuff that's been going on today.

But this is quiet, and this feels safe. Just the two of them, just peace and quiet. He can feel something trying to climb over his feet, but when he lifts his head just a little bit to cast a cautious glance, he can see it's just the CYBuddies being up to their usual antics, trying to curl themselves up near the boys to sleep. (He's a little envious of them, honestly, being able to sleep so easily at a moment like this - but then again, they're robots, as realistic as they might seem at times.)

After a few silent minutes past, he speaks up again - he keeps his voice hushed though, as if he fears breaking the silence any more than that. ]

What did you dream of?

[flamberge]

[enjoy those wings as long as you can because they vanish in a couple seconds. no one with a lick of common sense keeps them when they could draw unnecessary attention. kratos' eyes first settle on nam soon before darting around their surroundings.]

Had I wasted those seconds, you might be a leg or two lighter.

[potentially. the kid also could have avoided that but really who gives a warning when saving someone else. consider the bitching and moaning permitted if only because of a lack of kicking and screaming earlier. it's not as though he really cares for or expects thanks, either.

a thorough scan (visual and audio) reveals the closest monsters being a solid distance away. with any luck, luck in this case being angelic senses, any needless encounter can be avoided.]

There aren't any enemies close by so we should be fine going down this way.

[masakados]

Yeah. I like humans-- more than I like demons, usually.

But I was completely human before, so I'm a little different. [He brings his hand up to his head, tapping his forehead lightly with a finger. He's got that human state of mind and, well, state of heart, you could say.]

[helmsplitter]

[That's a better idea than Dotanuki had. He looks around and sighs.]

Eh, rabbits probably have better senses of direction than swords do, so I guess I'll go by that. So south, huh? I guess that means I probably live that way, too.

[He looks at the sword in the rabbit's hands.]

How good are you at that?

[scenting]

Get a flashlight. [ . . . ] Or your phone?

[ honestly, you are not helpless here, iv. but actually malia's kind of misunderstanding him because she thinks he's saying it's too dark for him to check, haha whoops.

seriously though, get a flashlight. ]

[scenting]

You're lucky your nose sucks.

[ but... oh?? oh that's kind of odd. she looks vaguely unsure of what to do before awkwardly taking off in the direction of the monsters. she'll look back at him once or twice before feeling weird about that and stops.

then they turn the corner to some nasty looking things in the dungeon with them. malia takes a moment to gag slightly. ]

Oh god, they're even worse up close.

[scenting]

Alright.

[ her features smooth back into Teen Girl as she stands up straight, claws and fangs and fur all disappearing. when it's gone, she looks at her gross hands covered in grime and monster blood. ew.

... which means she's totally walking over to nam soon and wiping her hands on the front of his shirt. yeah. after, she grins. ]

That's better. Let's go.

[ TURNS AND BEGINS TO WALK ]

[rebelia]

[He watches the gesture, not in the least surprised that Naoki is something else. But the "was" there piques his curiosity more.]

If you were completely human before, what are you now?

[rebelia]

The light could attract something. But . . .

[ although, on second thought, that might be a good idea. it'd be unwise to step outside without knowing what's there and being unable to see. thus, he fishes for the cerevice in his pocket and lights the screen up to hold out in the darkness. a moment later, he shuts it off and steps back inside. ]

There's nothing – not anything the human eye can see, anyway.

[newtimes]

( He doesn't even blink an eye at the statement, instead, folding his arms into his sleeve and tilting his head curiously to one side in an inquisitive manner instead of a confused one. The idea of a boy being able to speak to spirits is nothing new to him-- he was a spirit serving under a human boy himself! But what exactly was this one trying to accomplish? )

Well! ( And he laughs. Hahaha! ) They're not very chatty!

( If they're anything like the ones from the subway )

There's nothin` wrong with 'em being a little shy, though.

[newtimes]

( They do get a few odd looks after awhile for having their swords drawn out but really, that's the least of their confusion right now. )

It looks like it... I dunno. ( He wishes he had a better answer. ) If we're out, we should try to get back home.

How're ya feeling?

( Okay enough to start the trek back? )

[babermetrics]

[What the hell, she's not even going to be impressed if he takes it down! That's so unfair, he thinks to himself. But while he's self-centered enough to have a moment of disappointment over that, he's not quite enough so to just leave her there or anything; finally he turns back to her, giving her bag a look.]

You got anythin' good and heavy in there?

[scenting]

Human?

[ is that it!! really, come on now. she just sort of moves past iv to stick her own head out of the cart and well, she can see perfectly fine. if iv looks, he'll see her eyes sort of flash a very icy blue but it goes in a second and she pulls back. ]

There's... something out there? I can feel it but it's not human. It's not even doing anything, just whispering.

[helmsplitter]

What about it?

[He actually had no idea what she wanted him to do. She was standing in front of him and seemed expectant of something. Did her back hurt? And if so, what was he supposed to do about it?

He stared at her, not fully comprehending what was going on - either due to pride, blood loss, or both. ]

[helmsplitter]

[AT LEAST HE CHECKED. Cashew, you're too delicate of a butterfly ok.

Dotanuki pushes himself into a seated position against the pillar which had broken his fall and then looks up to see Kashuu extending a hand down. The tachi smiles a little ruefully at the question and takes the offered hand to pull himself to his feet. ]

Yeah, I'm good. Just a little sad that the battle's over already.

[and because this jelly is literally everywhere and he smells like strawberries. This is gross.

Dotanuki wipes a hand across his armor and shakes some clinging red jam off. ]

Could do without this sticky crap though.

[hoasen]

[GOD she's not asking for a massage. Besides, she's not tense right now. At least he's got his heart in the right place, but seriously.

She gives him an expectant look over her shoulder, and jerks her head.]

Please get on.

[helmsplitter]

[Country or no, she looks like she'd crush under his weight. He looks at her incredulously for a moment and then to her back.

He would actually crush a country. Wouldn't that be a bad thing? He doesn't want to ruin a nation he doesn't know anything about. ]

No offense but I'm good here.

[hoasen]

[She really does look it, but a country isn't human! She doesn't look deterred.]

You do not have to worry about me. I can carry at least twice my body weight.

[She still doesn't look like much, but he's probably not that much heavier than double. Right?!]

[helmsplitter]

[Whoa, she's like an ant.

Still, he isn't so sure about this, so instead he pulls his tachi out from its resting place at his side. After wrapping the ties around the saya with some difficulty, he holds it out to her. ]

Alright, then take this. Don't drop it.
