i'm giving it my all

Characters: Steinette and whoever wants to run across her
Setting: 4th Floor
Format: Action spam, but I'll follow you
Summary: After getting sent back "home" Stein's in need of a cool down. Time for someone to bother her during her half-naked martial arts, clearly.
Warnings:

A sound soul- [She jumps and kicks high, gracefully landing down on her other leg, already poised for another attack] Rests in a sound body- [A low kick this time, her leg sweeping around her in a perfect arc before she's back up on her feet] And a sound mind. [She strikes out behind her with her palm, a strange electricity emanating from her hand.

She repeats the mantra and the attacks, and probably would all day if she could. It would be such a shame for someone to interrupt her...]

Well you're certainly lying about something. I can see it written all over your soul. Along with what appears to be panic and embarrassment. Of course I don't have my glasses on so it could just be that my eyesight is getting worse.

[princeofjunes]

[Hold on, back up just a second]

You... you can see my soul?

[weaponiser.livejournal.com]

[She nods] I can. And I can read the changes in the wavelengths to know how you're feeling - currently it's curiosity, correct?

[princeofjunes]

Come on, I just asked you a question! Of course I'm curious.

[weaponiser.livejournal.com]

Or you could have just been trying to distract me from pressing about your non-existent section of the televison.

[princeofjunes]

I didn't have a section. [Technically true!]

So what else can you tell about someone by their soul?

[weaponiser.livejournal.com]

In your case, I can see that you have a very powerful soul for someone so young. And a few cursory personality traits. Usually it's the most prominent traits that I can see.

[princeofjunes]

[Huh... that's pretty cool. And also a nice ego boost to hear that he has a powerful soul. Well, he is reliable and more than carried his weight...]

Stupid question, but if you look into a mirror, can you see your own?

[weaponiser.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately not. I know what it looks like through other people's descriptions and the like. Though recently I've gotten to see it for myself, but only because there's another version of me running around and we have the same soul. It's a fascinating experience.

[princeofjunes]

... say what?

[weaponiser.livejournal.com]

There's another me living here as well. He seems to be from a later point in time than me as well, judging from his... Behaviors.

[princeofjunes]

[Processing... processing... nope! Brainbreak]

So there's another you there. Except she's a he, and from a different time.

[DOES NOT COMPUTE]

[weaponiser.livejournal.com]

Yes, that's the short version. He's quite nice, but not quite well. It's a shame really, I'd like to be able to get a more straight answer out of him so we could compare notes.

[princeofjunes]

That... that doesn't freak you out?! There being another you?

[weaponiser.livejournal.com]

[She's quiet for several moments.] He needed my help. I couldn't afford to simply freak out at his very existence. He needed me. He still does.

[princeofjunes]

... that's kind of you.

[Talk about a heavy atmosphere. Yosuke regrets this line of questioning, but isn't sure what to change the subject to. In his panic, he blurts out the following]

... I didn't get my own area because my shadow manifest itself while I was in someone else's.

[weaponiser.livejournal.com]

[She shrugs. Stein doesn't really think a person needs much kindness to essentially help themself. It's more narcissism than anything.

But Yosuke's need to change the subject certainly wasn't unwelcome.] How did that happen? I assumed it was limited to one shadow per area.

[princeofjunes]

Hell if I know how, but it happened. Twice, now that I think about it. Another friend of mine had the same thing happen.
