on the hunt

[miseris_socios]

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.]

[Yukiko glares right back at Minato as he looks at her. Normally she gets the flash of remorse after hitting someone like that but no, he's still taunting them, still talking about death and experiments and all manner of awful things as though they were no big deal. She can reach but one conclusion]

Is that a threat?

[ To Yukiko and Chie, he says this, his words cold and composed. Is there some jealousy here? Oh, most definitely. Maybe even a bit of anger, just beneath the facade of not giving a damn. ]

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

[ She doesn't say anything at that last remark, just a small "hmph" and allowing him to leave.

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 ]

[Yukiko has to dart out of the way as they leave, not wanting to get caught up in the Persona's attacks. As Ken and Minato leave, she turns to Yu]

What was that all about?

noooo one is replying so, i will tag!

[chariotprince]

[ She waits until he's gone, and this makes a hissing sound ]

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|

[He's silent for a moment, collecting himself before speaking. It was rare for him to have shown anger, but right now... all he could feel is disappointment - both in himself for not being able to reach the other Minato and how closed off the other was. If things had been more cordial, they all could have possibly ended up with more allies to watch each others backs.

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.]

[fans_fire]

[Yukiko gives him a quizzical look]

What do you mean, looking out for his own? Not the shadows, right?

[pitiedthefool]

[He shakes his head.] I mean the kid he left with.

slkdjfd I sleep and this is what happens.

[miseris_socios]

[Ken looks up from the conversation he was having - he had noticed the way the conversation had changed, but it wasn't his place to get in the middle of that one - and he walks over to Minato, following behind and avoiding the ice carefully.]
