[Floor 32]
[InuYasha still wasn't much of a people person, and his bad run with the shadows, he became even more scarce around the public areas like the lounge and cafeteria. Not that he was use to such unusual modern-like settings. As far as he was concerned, this floor provided the best comfort. Not only did it inhabit nature he was use to, he could also feast here with whatever he hunted. It was hell of a lot better than that crap they served in the dining area.

Currently he could found on the branch of the tree he always lounged on. This place wasn't free of people, not that he minded. Hell maybe he wanted someone to bother him. Not that he would admit it, but he was feeling homesick. The half-breed was fortunate to meet to new people, but no one's he connected with on an intimate level.]

[Floor 73]
[He decided to explore a floor he hadn't searched yet. This one was covered in snow, and more just kept falling. Unlike humans, he didn't need an extra coat to roam without feeling cold. In fact his bare feet barely registered the temperature of the flakes beneath him. With this, he was able to at least busy himself with something. Of all the surroundings, the castle interested him the most, so that's where he was heading.]

Comments

[hardedge]

[The name was unusual, but also probably common in the world this kid was from.]

Probably not a good trait to have?

[Fantastic conversation. It was actually bothersome.]

[woodpeckermaruta]

[The name was unusual to him, too, actually.]

Not if you don't want to have to kill your friends against your will... or be killed by them, all in the name of entertainment.

[The words came out with a nice, icy, touch. No, he didn't have extremely bitter feelings towards Deadman Wonderland.]

[hardedge]

[So the kid was a little more close to home than he expected.]

Tch. [He didn't have a proper reply for this.] Despicable. [Who could define friendly slaughter as entertainment?]

[woodpeckermaruta]

[He furrowed his brow at the response, before looking down. He closed his eyes a moment and sighed.]

Actually that's why it was so hard to come here. [He let out a weak laugh.]

I feel like I'm right back in that place... only with even more fucked up things happening.

[He then tensed up.] Sorry, I...

[He realized how pathetic he sounded.]

[hardedge]

[Is that what this was? A giant experiment to some of those admins. But now that the kid mentioned it, Zelda did tell him how cruel that Jason and Ruana could be.]

Quit apologizin'.

[woodpeckermaruta]

[He blinked at the short response.]

Huh? Oh...

... [He also realized that he had been doing that a lot, lately. A short laugh escaped him.

[hardedge]

There ain't much you can do, but you can at least remain strong. How else are you going to help others?

[His mean way of trying to cheer the other up?]

[woodpeckermaruta]

[Ganta gave him a blink, before realizing what he was doing.]

Heh... You're right. [He rubbed the back of his neck, before faintly smiling.]

Honestly, I'm really... tired of being weak. I'm tired of crying... and, dammit, I'm really tired of having to rely on other people. What's the point of having the Branch of Sin, if I can't even use it to help people...

[hardedge]

Keep your chin high and your feet up. [In other words, don't drag.] The only one who can help you is you.

[InuYasha's words of wisdom~]

[woodpeckermaruta]

Yeah. [He looked down with a serious expression, for a moment. Suddenly, though, a smile broke. He seemed to cheer up, actually, from InuYasha's words. Scratching his chin, a bit, he nodded to the demon.]

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind, uh...

[Oh, right. He didn't know the guy's name...]

By the way, my name's Ganta.

[hardedge]

Good 'cause no one's here to babysit you. [Except InuYasha might. Every so often. Maybe.

He's just going to take off now and not introduce himself back.]

[woodpeckermaruta]

[He blinked pretty hard before running after him a bit.]

Hey, wait! It's rude not to give your name back, you know!

[He stopped running, though, since... Well, if they guy wanted to leave, Ganta had no intention of chasing him.]

[hardedge]

Like I care.

[woodpeckermaruta]

[This guy made no sense. Okay, whatever.

He just watched him for a second, before shrugging. It didn't make him angry, honestly. Just confused.]
