towerofanimus | 010 | ❝To chase after what's hidden..❞

Characters: Yu Narukami, two deities of death, and you!
Setting: Floor Twenty (???), Room 2-02 (post-body swaps), and anywhere post-9/26
Format: I'll match you.
Summary: After all that's happened, Yu needs some alone time. Unfortunately the tower says "n o p e" and he throws in the white towel.
Warnings: Silent protags, gods of death, and the tower in general? I don't know...

Floor Twenty (Locked to Izanami)

He didn't necessarily linger on this floor for long, usually only passing through before continuing on to his destination. However, today was different. He stared out to what lay beyond the tower, not saying anything as he just allowed the wind to hit his face. He didn't mind that it was empty, desolate of any sort of life. It was a nice, quiet place to think and sort things out.

Of course, what he had seen in Inaba had been much worse. Even as he stood there in silence, he waited. Maybe his request would be put on hold, but he didn't mind that either. He still had a message to deliver, though.

Room 2-02 (Locked to ...AU!Minato?)
Well, he always had been one for shitty sleep schedules, regardless of how he tended to micromanage his routine as much as possible. After Inaba, he had a hard time sleeping before 1am every night. Hell, it's still a miracle he didn't nap during the day because of it. Either way...why did he get the sinking suspicion he was being watched by someone who wasn't his roommates or whatever cameras there were?

Floor Fourteen
He almost always stopped on this floor, even when he wanted to be alone. However, this time he seems to step in, take a look around, and walk back out again after deciding better than playing a video game again. At least, unless someone stops him.

Anywhere after 9/26
Of course, after a short time to reflect and after setting up the party to celebrate their victory over Jason's experiment, he's likely checking every floor to see if he finds any familiar faces. It's just to check up on everyone, really. It had been a mess the last week, and he knows he messed up along the line. Feel free to bump into him anywhere you so please.

Room 2-02 (10/1)
So thanks to Ledouche, the ones in dorm room 2-02 aren't exactly having a good morning. Powers are nullified, a creature lurking underneath Yu's bed. He hadn't sent in that 'request' at all, but the aforementioned someone saw fit for it regardless.

When Yu is able to move, he draws his sword from underneath his pillow and strikes out. Little help here, guys?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Yu can probably hear the faint sound of, "Mieuuu~ Mieuuu~" on the stairs ahead of him for awhile before he actually sees the source of the noise. Apparently Luke had his cheagle out doing errands again: the little guy was on the stairs, trying to haul some towels up. Unfortunately, he was so small that he could only set the towels down on the step above him before climbing up after them.

Help a poor cute little critter out?

That he could, so when he does see the little guy he couldn't help but stop and see what it was doing. King of odd, a little fella like his friend's cheagle trying to carry those towels. So he pauses for a moment, considers, and-

"Need a hand with that?"

Seriously, that looked just plain ridiculous.

Amnon paused his work, looking up at Yu with those big round eyes of his. Ohh... this was master's best friend! He wagged his tail happily (which, because he was so small, it made him look like he was wiggling his butt instead), putting on his best adorable look.

"Mieu mieu mieu?"

Amnon, why so cute. You don't really need to do that when he was offering in the first place. Still, he stopped and picked up the towels, sparing the cheagle a headpet before straightening. Yu nodded.

"Where are you headed?"

"Mieu, mieuuu!"

Now that Amnon didn't have to carry the towels, it was a bit easier for him to scamper up the stairs. He paused a few stairs up, motioning for Yu to follow, and wiggling himself up several floors. He didn't stop until he got to the meadow, pausing to sniff around. Master was around here somewhere...

"Mieuuu... Mieu!"

...and he shot off like a rocket once he caught his scent.

Yu nodded, following the little pink furball. Though he paused when he noticed the floor they were stopping on. The meadow... He shook the through from his mind, instead focusing on following the chea- whoa wait up, little guy!

...He had nearly forgotten how fast he was when he needed to be. Damn having gotten used to "WHAT IS PHYSICAL EXERTION?" when trapped within someone else's form.

It didn't really take long to find Luke; Yu could probably hear him before he saw him. The redhead was working out in the middle of the field, gasping as he pushed himself through several sword routines, though it was obvious he was having a lot of difficulty. His sword was still chipped, and that was throwing his balance off slightly, and on top of it, he wasn't used to having so little hair. He finished a move by throwing his arm back in a way that normally would have swept his long hair behind him, but when he came up with nothing it threw him off. Luke ended up spinning around, off balance, before crashing to the ground.

So. Much. Fail.

Luke's arm came flailing up from the grass, a fist shaking at the sky.

"Dammit, Teddie!!!"

Amnon let out a happy noise at that, bounding toward Luke.

Yu followed the little guy, trying not to chuckle at the balance issues he saw so plainly. To be honest, he still had his own issues with footing, but at the same time...

Well, Luke's missing hair probably did not help matters any.

"It's been a while since I heard those two words used in conjunction."

Oh hello there, man. Guess who helped out Amnon?

Luke shot up when he heard Yu's voice, quickly turning a bright shade of red.

"Y-Yu? What are you doing here?"

He shot Amnon a dirty look; did he bring him there?! Dammit, he didn't want Yu to see him failing all over the place!

"Amnon looked like he needed help."

He came voluntarily. Though, it was likely a good thing that he had. Since he'd been using the bus stop sign more, the katana was basically unused for the most part. Thus, He's offering the blade to him as well as the load he carried for the little guy.

Oh, geeze, Amnon! Luke held up his hands in protest, trying not to look like a jerk.

"R-really, I don't tell him to do half the stuff he does," he tried to explain. "He just does it."

He paused as Yu held the thin sword out to him, blinking in confusion. What...?

He smirked at that for a moment at that comment. Seemed about as legit as any pet, but really... you look like you could use one, Luke.

"It can't be that easy to balance with that."

"Oh..."

Luke stared at the offered sword for a moment, not sure what to say.

"I... I'll only borrow it for practice," he said, hesitantly accepting it. "Only when you're around to practice with. I... it wouldn't be right otherwise."

Yu nodded. "Alright."

And look what else he had? A bus stop sign! ...Yes, he was really going to use it if someone wanted to go verses.

...Luke had to stop and stare, at a loss for words. Seriously, what was that even used for? It looked like something that should be on a carriage path or something...

"Do I... want to know why you fight with that?"

"Mostly to block and smack sense into a select few for being an idiot." What's even creepier is that he kept up the deadpan when he admitted it.

But yeah, it basically was. Leave it to a certain friend to leave him something that was supposed to be on the road.

Luke let out an exasperated noise at that.

"...nothing phases you, does it?" he asked, shaking his head.

He paused a moment to look at the blade, unsheathing it and taking a few practice swings. It was thinner and lighter than he was used to, but it would be good for practice.

"A few things do," he admitted, but prepared himself. Luke had something lighter... and he had something heavier. Funny how that went, huh.

"It takes a lot, though."

Or maybe not at all. Who knew with him?

Luke let out an amused snort.

"Yeah, right," he replied with a grin, before dropping into a ready stance. "All right then, prepare yourself!"

Without much warning than that, Luke charged straight for Yu, obviously excited about the chance to show off what he was capable of.
