RL with Rei Suzumura

[Upon arriving in modern day Tokyo during the day, Dead Master cannot help but be surprised at his world. The crowds and noise found in Shinjuku are in stark contrast to the morbid silence of her world. The greatest difference she notices is not the tall buildings, flashy advertisements, or the fact that there is a sun in the sky. Instead, it is the carefree, smiling people. How strange to find a place with the population not in fear of their lives from either the world or her kind.

She quite likes it.

Oh yes, she receives many stares--but they all assume that she is cosplaying. A few of them even sneak in pictures of her on their cell phone cameras. Dead Master ignores them, idly walking the streets. She does not know where to find Rei Suzumura. They did not arrange a particular meeting point--not that she would know where to look in such a metropolis. In the meantime she follows business men and women, students, and bums around the city.]

[And with the twist, he's forced to push forward with a thrust kick - little over a minute left, but this fight was getting to be more fun than he ever thought it would be.]

NOW WITH MORE ARMOR ICONS. \o\

[Rei slams both blades downward, pushing forward again to make up for the awkward angle at which he's trying to push away the scythe. She's good, he'll definitely grant her that.]

I HAVEN'T SEEN ANY SHIRTLESS PICS - I THINK. OTHERWISE I'D GET SOME.

[The follow-up causes him to stagger slightly, and thankfully with the armor on, even though the strike does connect, it only causes him to fly back a little before righting himself, slamming the handles of both swords together to fasten them into one large dual-bladed weapon once he's back on his feet proper.

With an amused huff of air, though, he charges forward, twirling the weapon before going in with a quick twist and diagonal slash.]

[Whoops. He's way too used to not holding back - and he takes the blow, letting out a grunt before digging the combined Ginga Ginrouken into the ground to steady himself.

Less than 30 seconds left.

Once steadied, he throws the weapon at her, arcing like a boomerang after the initial throw - and he's charging forward while it's in mid-flight, aiming a kick at her torso.]

[Rei's dodging the blade, moving to take back his sword in the same movement -

10 ... 9 ... 8 ...

And he breaks his swords apart again, frowning underneath his helmet as he brings one up to catch the scythe while the other is moving in for another blow -

3 ... 2 ...]

[And he backs off the blow as he sees the scythe going through his own sword, the armor disappearing in a flash to have Rei in a ready position, taking deep breaths and his swords now reverting back to their original twin shortsword state.]

Not bad at all.

Just when it was getting good.

[He lets out an amused huff, though noticing what the scythe blade did to the ground, he does realize the significance of her saying that.]

[He does end up putting away his twin swords, letting them disappear behind his back.]

Alright, then. Did you still want that tour of the city or were you going to head back right away?

[identity profile] fangedvengeance.livejournal.com 2011-10-06 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Alright, follow me, then.

[And he waves her over to follow him back out into the street. Though where to start would be a damn good question.]

People-watch, enjoy the sights ... maybe get some sweets or enjoy some music. It all really depends on my mood, really.

They try to be, anyway. Sometimes it's not that simple.

Most people don't even realize what's going on with that. For the best, I suppose. Makai Knights usually don't try to make their presence known in the community for a reason.

Probably not. More than likely people would think we're insane than anything else, try to lock us up and keep us from our duties. [Snort.]

Those of us in the profession don't try branching out to civilians often, there have been too many instances of them getting killed or twisted and turned against both us and those they love.

[Though he does look pensive for a second - if he remembered correctly, though - Kaoru's father was saved by Kouga's father, and survived ... Plus her own ordeal with being marked with Horror blood.]

Though there have been exceptions. It's just ... not something we normally think of.

Depends on who it is, really. Though it seems that my coworkers are unbelievably stiff sometimes.

[Most of the time, but meh. Kouga's at least learning to loosen up.]
