Training to Destress

 Characters: Hei and YOU
Setting: Floors 1, 27, 30, 77, 14, and
Format: Prose, but I'll match
Summary: Hei tries to ease his mind while training.
Warnings: violence, possibly nudity in spa, and will be updated if necessary.

Floor 1:

As always, Hei was at the cafeteria, cooking up some more meat. He made sure to gather a whole lot of materials for such a thing, mainly vegetables to add some flavor, and of course various meats he saved from killing some sharks and deer. The supply was eventually go bad, so he might as well have cooked it now. There were even plates laid out, no doubt for those new here. He made sure to put up a sign as well, letting everyone know they can eat it. However, there was a warning regarding the oatmeal to eat that first though, less they liked to throw up.

One can even his mogwai Mao aiding him, giving him the tools he needed.

Floor 27:

After telling Homura of this place, Hei had an idea. Materia was great for spell-casting, but he needed more weaponry, more ways to make sure he was ahead of the game. One can see him making small pellets, no bigger than a large gumdrop ball. These were meant to be smoke pellets at least, though he needed to make sure they worked. After all, chemistry wasn't his strongest suit, and it had been over a year since his memory could aid him. Being trapped in a facility filled with torture and then a tower as well did not aid him too much.

Floor 30:

Dark, filled with powerful creatures, and no one else was around...perfect. Right now, Hei needed to get in some exercise, and he was certainly getting it. Many creatures surrounded him, the strange shadow creatures, mixing Neoshadows and Darkballs. Hei was panting, two orbs glowing on his belt. The Materia were of great aid, but it was clear Hei needed to retreat.

He steps back, the tendrils of the Neoshadow zipping past and striking him. Yet he still stood, glaring at the creature. One can easily see an aura surround him, clearly magic at work. He puts his hand in the shadow, electricity building and released with a sudden burst. The shadow died in that instant, twitching violently before vanishing into black air.

His gaze fell upon the others, raising his knives. Another one down, and he just needed an opening. One of the Materia on the belt seemed to shine brighter as he was readying another spell, the ground below shaking too.

Floor 77:

Sometimes this was the best thing to do, and it was clear he needed some time away from everything stressful, before he went insane again. One can find him in the unisex rooms, unknowingly wandering into it, and he didn't really care. A good chance to earn more information at any rate. He was clad only in a towel, laying against the wall as the heat engulfed him. Certainly a good place to ease some stresses of life at least, even if temporary.

"Should have done this a long time ago..."
 Floor 14:

Taking more breaks than he was used to was harder than he thought, but necessary. With so much things getting done, he had hardly allowed himself any time dedicated to this. With Mao next to him, he had been watching a variety of animated movies, mainly of the superhero called Superman. At the facility, there was a clone of him, and he wanted to know more. Movies seemed the most logical route. Hei though leans forward as he watches the movies, particularly vs The Elite, interested.

"Certainly one way to solve a problem," he spoke. "Too bad killing is sometimes the only option."
altitonant_emperor: is that the student presidency over there (♔ it's ridiculous plain and simple)

[ For once, Hidetoshi had no complaints about the menu offered in the cafeteria. It was a pleasant change of pace. Taking the elevator downstairs for lunch and walking into the cafeteria, Hidetoshi picked up a plate (he left the ones, filled with cooked meat and laid out for the newcomers, alone) piled a selection of food onto it, and greeted Hei politely; ]

Good afternoon.

[ He looked familiar, this man. ]
altitonant_emperor: murderers liars thieves moving in darkened rows (♔ I had my doubts)

[That little, furry face is a tad unnerving, but it doesn't seem harmful. Hidetoshi bent down, balancing his plate of food and held out one hand to the mogwai.]

Is he yours?
altitonant_emperor: the tools of chimpanzees (♔ that is no way to live)

[personal profile] altitonant_emperor 2013-05-16 03:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[Okay, slightly unsettling face aside, this little creature was cute. Hidetoshi could now place its owner's face in his memories. Hei had been one of the other residents who'd been trapped in that wet dungeon with the water tentacle monster where Hidetoshi broken his arm.]

May I ask what his name is?
altitonant_emperor: is that a cigarette butt on the floor (♔ i might lose a friend as a consequence)

[personal profile] altitonant_emperor 2013-05-17 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
[Moa gets a couple stiff, kind pets on the head then.]

My arm?

[He withdraws his hand from the little creature and rests it on said arm for a moment.]

Fully recovered, thankfully. A friend's acquaintance offered to heal it for me after that entire mess was over with. [Survival in the everyday Tower was difficult enough without the handicap of an injury like that.]
altitonant_emperor: that guy's gonna get himself punched in the face (♔ history has proven that)

[personal profile] altitonant_emperor 2013-05-18 06:05 am (UTC)(link)
[He removes his hand from his arm again, dropping it to his side. A short nod.]

It was kind of him.

[Enoch had told him this.]

An archangel named Raphael.
altitonant_emperor: if i could get people like him to change their ways (♔ i rambled on about rules and fairness)

[personal profile] altitonant_emperor 2013-05-19 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I was surprised myself.

[Hidetoshi admitted with a slight shrug. His upbringing hadn't been religious, but meeting an actual angel in the flesh had been enough to taken him off guard. The Tower was full of weirdos.]

Indeed. It can't be called discriminate in whom it kidnaps.
altitonant_emperor: dressed up in ice (♔ silent and sorry)

[personal profile] altitonant_emperor 2013-05-20 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. [ Hidetoshi straightens back up, plate of food in his hand. ] Adaption to new cirmcunstances is a bit of a requirement, no?
altitonant_emperor: my skin started to crack (♔ with your late summer bloom)

[personal profile] altitonant_emperor 2013-05-21 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He sets the plate down on the counter with a clink and starts checking the drinks for something to drink. ] Hmph. As the proverb goes, it's best to bend before you break.

[ ... Reminds him of how terrible he was at that before the last school year. ]

[Milk, or juice? he ponders. It's not like there are any energy drinks or cans of soda in the Tower. At least this month's menu tasted like food and wasn't limited to only a single range of food.]

I wonder if they see it as a warped sort of game to do that to us.
altitonant_emperor: stormclouds crashing and booming with light (♔ I am tracing your tracks)

[personal profile] altitonant_emperor 2013-05-28 05:35 am (UTC)(link)
[In the midst of grabbing a glass for the juice, he glances at Hei.] They what?
