on the hunt
Characters: Ken Amada and open.
Setting: The Meadow and The Forest. Or catch him on the stairs! Just tell me where. Night.
Format: Action
Summary: It's training time. Ken's spear still isn't fixed, but he's got his Evoker. Time to hunt Shadows.
Warnings: Possibly dark subjects. Also shooting yourself in the head. :|b
[He's been still for too long. Going out at night, hunting Shadows… he's missed it. So quietly, as to not wake anyone, he heads out of his room and down the stairs, looking for something to fight.]
[And he finds it. Blobs of Shadow, there in a corner and over there, too - and the quick movement of a Shadow with too much speed. Lifting his Evoker to his forehead, he fires, summoning Nemesis, dispatching a few with Hama and frying a few more with Zionga.]

... I just want to point out the entire IT is free to respond to this question, btw.
[ Oh. Oh, hahahaha, that's funny. Sorry, he can't help the cryptic smile he's throwing you, Yu, which is his answer to all of those statements, both from the other Minato and to Yu. ]
If more people embraced death instead of fearing it, we wouldn't be spending the 'time' we had afraid of losing those people, or mourning them, or tearing ourselves apart at the seams because we lost them.
[ It was odd, really. To see someone so alike him, and yet... so different. Very different. For obvious reasons. He takes the time to aim past Yu, shooting a small monster of some sort repeatedly with his pistol. ]
Some people's lives have to be cut short for the good of others, as well. Here is an interesting question, let me gauge how you all will answer it: is killing bad at all times? You seem like someone who'd feel strongly about that.
[ He doesn't particularly phrase it as 'murder'. Only as killing. He doesn't need to be specific. ... You could learn a lot about a group of people from how they'd answer this sort of thing, after all. ]
...and then we all relive December, wheeeeeee.
There's a bad taste in his mouth, one he only used to get in facing those they thought were the culprits, but to hear that question--it sends him reeling mentally, though it only really shows in his eyes. How close they'd been to lowering themselves to the same level as Adachi, how they had narrowly dodged the slippery slope and stopped themselves from tossing an innocent man into the TV world... Yu's fists clench tight.
Minato was right- he does feel strongly about it. So much so that he switches Personas to Tzitzimitl, both because of immunity to darkness, and an attempt to calm himself.]
...I'd rather avoid it at all cost and learn the truth than act on emotion and instinct. [It's like being faced by his own demons again, and he hates it - he remembers seeing Namatame's petrified gaze as they debated what they'd do with him, just how close he was to throwing him in himself before the realization hit him...] Every life is precious, and I'd be lowering myself to another person's level if I ever contemplated taking someone else's!
[Deep breath...] We all have a limited amount of time, so why not use it to live to the fullest for those who can't? [...He is so close to hitting this Minato, it isn't even funny.]

As a result, she stalks over and attempts to whack Minato with her fan]
i guess we can tag now?? /JOINING IN ANYWAY HI GUYS
Chie is able to notice that. Yes there is two Minatos. One is being an asshole... and OMG YUKIKO IS ABOUT TO SLAP ONE? ]
Hey! Don't talk to Yu like that, jerk!
HAHAHAKDSJH. /FIXES THIS WHOOPS. I am so lame.
Why are you hitting him, girl? For a moment, his mind thinks of Chidori. But, no, it's not her, it's some random girl. A member of this guy's team, probably.
Rubbing his head and just casually acting like that didn't happen... though he does give Yukiko a glance, because there could have been fifty different better ways to be introduced, but whatever. ]
... I see. That's an interesting look in your eyes, Narukami-san. Seems like you've been through a lot.
[ Is he... amused? Yeah, he's definitely amused. ]
It's... a little self-righteous, though. Because this place is going to put you in that position many, many times. You might want to rethink what survival means to you--all of you, in that case. Your Persona isn't going to get you out of every situation when they can just disable it. ... Just some advice.
[ To Chie, he just offers a blink, before replying. He'll talk however the hell he wants, thank you very much. ]
... You make it sound like I'm doing something wrong. I'm just offering a little advice. Do you want this place to tear you apart? I'd get used to the idea of dying and experiments if you don't.
can i tag again??? okay here i go
Some advice you're offering, it sounds a lot more like you're taunting him!
go right ahead /shakefist
Ugh, again with the 'self-righteous' spiel. One would think that they'd come up with some new material once and a while, keep it fresh, yet all he does is rehash things he already knows, things experienced once before and how necessary it is for him to just...somehow get a hold of an actual weapon. That reminder he didn't need, but the "warning"?
He isn't going to be changing his stance on anything, not when he still has his team to lead and keep together- when he knows someone is still watching him...
Yu says nothing, yet sometimes its his silences that say so much more than any words he could utter. Get out.]
no subject
Is that a threat?
/leaves. BD
It's simply the truth, actually. What are you going to do, anyway, if it was? Kill me? Use your Persona on me? Hurt me? Yell at me until you feel better or I'm intimidated? Try to make me feel differently, or change my 'morals'? I've been through that before, and nothing any of you could ever do could match what they did to us, so you can save it, and you can save your morals and your cutesy little threats.
Not everyone is lucky, like you. Not everyone can be.
[ In case you didn't notice, he doesn't care if you do. That doesn't bother him. The 'us' here being Strega, of course.
The Kirijo Group's experiments were far more horrific, so he'd never bend to anything else, ever again.
All this said, his expression returns to being entirely neutral, as though he'd never said any of the above, and he turns to Ken after his conversation with Kanji is over. ]
... Ken-kun. Let's go. Jin might blow something up without us again, anyway.
[ He knows when to leave well enough alone, though. Is he intimidated? No, not at all. But he'll be casually grabbing Ken's attention and leaving, Thanatos leaving a huge trail of ice as he walks, destroying the not-quite-Shadows from a distance.
He's sure they'll talk behind his back and say how much they hate him. Good, he won't care for them or anyone else. It's only his own he wants to care for, so let them. ]
>:( yeh scram
It was better this way, as long as he was gone. She could tell it was bothering Yu, Yukiko and herself, everyone else as well ]
...
no subject
What was that all about?
noooo one is replying so, i will tag!
Talk about rude, you saw where he was coming from, Yukiko! He was trying to threat Yu! Either that or taunt him in some sort of screwed up way...
I passed out, ok. 8|
Too late now.
He watches them go, then turns to Yukiko and Chie.]
Actually, he was looking out for his own and jumped to conclusions. [Much like you are now, Chie.]
no subject
What do you mean, looking out for his own? Not the shadows, right?
