Where Will You Go?
Who: Sou "Kit" Kigetsuki, and anyone who happens to cross his path.
What: Sou's recovery was a swift one that wasn't without consequence.
When: After the Shadow Event
Where: Cafeteria.
Format: Prose but I'll match.
Warning: violence (tentatively)
Sou pretty much had forced himself into one of the fastest recoveries from a broken ankle ever by putting a bullet in his own head. He wasn't about to let anything stop him and he certainly didn't want anyone's help or pity.
Like the natural actor he was, he pretended that nothing bothered him. At least publicly. He raised his brow at the display of energy bars and it reminded him sorely of those bars he had back at the lab during his refinement which brought to the surface terrible memories of the harsh experimentations he endured.
It was almost disgusting how the Administration would think that they are nothing more than rats and even worse, he was starting to see the big picture. It was enough to make him lance the festering wound of discontent and maliciousness through violent action. His hands at his sides in tight fists, the heat in the general area of about ten feet was becoming increasingly unbearable.
"STOP MESSING WITH ME!"

Ishtar nodded her head, "Haha, but I'm sure they're interesting in their own right," she chimed pulling her head back to laugh a little more. Things seemed to be getting better between her and the guy that thought she was her Shadow.
She listened to him speak about the things he did. They all sounded very delicate and sweet, compared to the strong front he was putting up. She was pretty aware that tough guys had their soft spots and even the delicate ones were dangerous when riled up enough.
"Ooohh, that sounds kind of fun to create illusions from stories. There's places where they have a piano and there's empty places for dancing if you ever wanted to pick them back up again. I kinda want to hear what a piano sounds like," she replied in all honesty. She did take his words seriously, though knowing that he had a rough past. At least there were small things that he could look up to and enjoy doing, "I'm sorry, maybe you can find it here again?" she mused after a moment of silence.
"Flowers?" she mused before softening her look again, "I used to love picking the flowers int he meadow. They were always nice to look at. Maybe we can find a place with flowers?"

Sou's gaze turned back to Ishtar. He was feeling much lighter again to answer her questions. "Well, I used to grow orchids. I had one that was so rare that a clipping cost five thousand dollars. I had others that were so rare that they don't grow anymore in the wild. In a way, I was trying to save them from extinction. The Lost Ground is an unforgiving place and one that tore apart the very existence from under our feet. This tower, this place, is not much different. We can either ignore it and forget it ever existed or we try to preserve what little is here and hope that it can grow and become something greater. That's my philosophy.
If I were to have a second chance, this is my path. I'll work to save it although I certainly left the opposite impression." Sou crossed his arms over his chest as he looked at the damage he caused.

She leaned back as well, looking around quietly, "Oh, those are always so beautiful to look at. WE always had a few hanging around the ca-- house," she replied fixing herself. Ishtar was used to uttering things like that sometimes, so she forgot that her status was different from most people. She had long stopped caring about her status, but things would have been more complicated if some of her friends learned she was of nobility. All the explaining would bore her to sleep. She listened quietly as he explained to her, somewhat in awe at what he was saying.
"Wow, that sounds like a lot of money for them. I bet they were definitely beautiful to look at," she replied chuckling. He seemed to have an interesting hobby. Who knew that this person could be so gentle in his own right? Ishtar was glad that she didn't judge him for what happened at the beginning and just spoke to him like he was anybody else. She nodded her head, "It seems like you think about about this really deeply. I'm sure that you'd do just that if you could," she replied nodding her head.
"Is that your world, the Lost Ground?" she mused after a moment.

He pulled himself off the edge of the table and started to move toward the cafeteria entrance. "If you don't wish to get sick from the fumes, I suggest leaving."
It seemed almost a little too surreal that people really didn't change all that much from different times or worlds. He was honest in his answers and there was always someone, somewhere that held back. Even during his rampages, he was completely exposed and vulnerable. He held nothing back. It was a startling revelation that he was beginning to understand about people. Even for just a moment, he showed his true self, a self that he showed to a very few that cared enough to listen.
"Why do you choose to omit?" He asked as he looked over his shoulder.

"Earth. I'm from a place called Earth too, only I think it's a little bit younger in the time line. There's a lot of vegetation, carriages, and horses. People used to say that my world sounds like a fairy tale story book and all."
She replied rubbing the back of her neck, "Ah, yeah," she replied nodding her and following suit after him.
She blinked, "Omit? Oh....well," she paused a moment assuming that he meant by that? She wasn't sure if that was what he was asking, but decided to answer anyway, "It's complicated. I guess whatever I was going to say wouldn't mean anything because I'm not really really who I'm suppose to me, if that makes any sense? If you really want to know, I can tell you," she replied realizing that she had a made a mistake by fixing her speech.

Sou stepped up to the door and opened it. The air leading into the hall was much cooler than inside this half-baked room that had mostly melted from his irate display. "Yes, I would like to know. I revealed to you who I am, and if you deem it fair to tell me in kind, I would appreciate it."
no subject
"Well, I guess it wouldn't hurt," she replied with a sad look, "I grew up in a castle. At least, that's what my memories told me, but I'm not really who I think I am. With that put aside, I guess one thing people would usually call me at home would be princess. I was the one to inherit a throne to my country," she shrugged. That idea seemed to be foreign now that she didn't believe she had a place anymore. She was a clone after all.
That was something to get over, "There's a lot of things that came along with being a princess, and that included fun attempts on your life," the word 'fun' was almost said sarcastically as she stepped through the door, "It's not really special. I don't really know who I am anymore," she replied offering him a smile, "I'm sorry...I'm used to keeping things like this a secret. It's not something I should be telling people, according to my guardians."
There was a serious look on her face as finished, "I guess it's fair that you know who I am and where I cam from, because you have told me about yourself," she replied looking back at him. She started to walk a little faster, "Let's go find the flowers," instead of talking about depressing things.
no subject
His expression changed from suspicious to calm. It was a lot more comforting to him now that he was seeing a better picture. The mention of finding the flowers made him smile calmly. "I only agree to going with to find them is only because I am with an enchanting person. Thank you for that."
no subject
"Haha, now you're just flattering me," she replied softly with a small laugh. Ishtar didn't brush the friendly comment aside, but she wasn't too affected by it either. She just walked on forward now with small steps, "You're welcome I guess?" she finished and continued walking. He was a truly strange but interesting guy.
