Who: Everyone
Where: wherever there's a TV and then, dining hall
When: Day 7, a respectable time in the morning when most people are up and at 'em

[LIVE ALERT!

the cameras zoom in on your boy who seems more cheered than yesterday. maybe it has something to do with yet another cinderblock he's holding as he stands at the game tower?]

Let's meet up. Talk things over. Dining hall in thirty.

Oh, and sorry about the noise.

[because of course it's not a BE=DE live if you're not breaking shit. and windows are loud when they break.

the live cuts off pretty quick after he does a few more (less noisy) minor damages. mostly seems to be just wasting time kicking holes in walls after climbing in through the rebroken window.



Do you attend?]

But . . .

[ taking a pause, and he stops. it isn't really in his place, and moreover it's not like he's really sure anyway, he doesn't know what's going to happen, it could all just be fine? there's just something in his gut that tells him that it isn't a good idea but maybe he's worrying over nothing.

it isn't something he has the confidence to take a stance on. so, he smiles instead, fretful but resigned ]

. . . If you say so, miss. Certainly, wanting to help others out is what your unit's creed is, isn't it?

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ That is the most strained smile she has ever seen.

....

Maybe she can relent just a little, this once. It's not like this is a life or death issue, after all. ]

It is. But maybe you're right. I'll see what the sign ups look like at the end and adjust accordingly. There might be other things I need to do, too, after all.

[sancrimony]

[ get ready to see a lot of them from this face ]

My apologies for being so forward . . . Certainly however, I'm sure there will be other things we can all do together.

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ please she just gave you what you wanted at least make a happier smile!!! ] You were just looking out for me, weren't you? I don't see any reason to apologize for that. [ Even royalty needs advisers. ]

[sancrimony]

[ look here's a happier smile ]

. . . Then, thank you for lending your ear to me, miss.

[dragonheartedgirl]

Of course. That's the least that I can do, isn't it? I might not always agree with what you have to say in the end, but it would be rude of me not to listen at all.

[sancrimony]

. . . Speaking of rudeness, I don't believe I have introduced myself since we met. Although we've seen each other a couple of times by now . . . My deepest apologies.

[dragonheartedgirl]

Oh! Me, either! [ She's hastily and fairly? steeply bowing ] I'm Hiryuu.

[sancrimony]

[ with a low bow himself ]

It's a pleasure, Hiryuu-san. I am sensitIV's Higanbana, Lucifel.

[dragonheartedgirl]

Lucifel? That's a pretty name.

[ she really likes the sound of it, it just has a pretty ring to it ]

[sancrimony]

Thank you. Likewise, Hiryuu is a lovely name. How is it written?

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ I had to look this up because Yona's name is written in katakana but hiryuu's apparently isn't

she doesn't have any paperrr.. ]

Can I see your hand?

[sancrimony]

Ah, yes.

[ offering his palm to her! it's surprisingly calloused. ]

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ To her--that really actually just seems natural? Even for as gentle-looking a boy as him. Her own hands and fingers also calloused and covered in tiny, scratch/nick-sized scars, which he may notice as she proceeds to draw across his palm. ]

First, the character "緋" for hi, scarlet. And second, "龍" for ryuu, dragon.

[sancrimony]

I see . . . Do you fancy yourself a dragon, Hiryuu-san?

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ The question catches her off guard a little; she hadn't been too concerned about whether or not her name suited her. ]

I hadn't really thought on it too much...

[dragonheartedgirl]

But... if I had to say, then something like a dragon.... that's very strong, isn't it? Far beyond the strength of a normal human.

[ She looks up, toward the ceiling--but there's a distance to her gaze that suggests she's not seeing wood and plaster but something far off beyond that. ]

If I could borrow the strength of a dragon... I bet I could tear this place into pieces and go right after those so-called Producers. ... I would very much like that.

[sancrimony]

[ looking to where she is, tilting his head for a moment before he looks back to her ]

. . . It would be a fantastic sight to see.

[dragonheartedgirl]

Well, I don't think I can or ever could become a real dragon, however nice that would be!

[ It's very fanciful wishful thinking--and--she laughs at herself. ]

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ She becomes quiet again, and a steely look replaces that big smile. ]

... But I will tear this place down.

[sancrimony]

. . . I think there are many here who would like to help you do that.

[ with a small smile himself, as he glances around ]

[dragonheartedgirl]

It would be a lot easier to do it if I wasn't working alone. But... it's probably going to be pretty dangerous.

[ Even just regular existing here is going to be difficult... ]

[sancrimony]

I think it's a little too late for danger.

[dragonheartedgirl]

That's true. But I mean the difference between being a "casualty of war" and being a target.

[sancrimony]

. . . There are forty three of us who have been taken away from our homes and families. Have we not already been targets?
