Characters: Momotaros, Jay the Unseen, Kohaku
Setting: Jay's Dorm Room, Night
Format: Prose
Summary: When life gives you Imagin, you go "good grief, what the hell life".
Warnings: Door-smashing, obstinate Momotaros swearing.

It was stupid to go out at night, but that's when the real monsters came out - and Momotaros' frustrations with the tower led to him spoiling for some way to blow off some steam. Sparring with others in the tower wasn't cutting it. He needed a real fight.

And he'd gotten one, from a Deathclaw. The creature had forced him up to the third dorm floor, and with one heavy swing of its clawed hand, sent Momotaros flying toward room 3-10, and through the wooden door. Splinters, sand, fragments of the door, and Momotaros himself tumbled across the floor. His sword clattered as it landed nearby.

"...damned over-sized bastard lizard..."

this will be glorious

Okay, so the convention of Suspicious People Under The Age Of 18 was underway in Jay's room that night, and frankly he was more than wary of his room-mates arriving back and questioning the subject matter. After all...

"I'm sure that it's poisonous, but I'd have to test how deadly it is-"

...Jay and Kohaku weren't exactly discussing the weather. He'd been very aware of the rumble in the halls, and had taken it for some blowhard being ridiculous (like that Thor guy), and had let his guard down JUST enough for his door exploding inward to make him stop still as a statue in shock.

Sure, his hands were in his pockets in record time, but...what. What the hell. What.

"Deadly isn't always the most desirable component in a poison. Even if it's a bit lacking in that department, I'm sure there's other uses we..."

Slipping out of her dorm at night to go elsewheres was old hat to Kohaku by now. This fine night, it was for a friendly discussion with an acquaintance -

"Oh my. I didn't know you were expecting another guest, Jay-san."

- that seemed to have been victim to a timely interruption. Kohaku steps lightly back from the mess, to get a better view of Momotaros' downed form and to safely brush away what debris found itself on her kimono.

Fucks given: precisely zero.

Well, to be fair, it was a blowhard being ridiculous. He just let himself get a little overwhelmed is all.

Momotaros pushes up, spilling a little more sand on the floor from some cuts here and there, but he doesn't seem to be too bothered by it. He catches sight of Jay and Kohaku, and huffs in annoyance - mostly at himself. If Ryotaro was here, he'd be chewing Momo's hide for putting kids in danger. Damn it.

"Didn't mean for this t' happen," is all he says to the two before heading back toward the door, and strapping on a silver belt in the process. (Though, where'd it come from...?)
