HARD REBOOT

there always comes a time when you do what you want to do.  you know you shouldn't do it, but you do it anyways.  live with the lies, and the friends that it gathers, but somewhere in your heart, you know you have to let it go. indie esen markov for dgm. written by sky. sideblog to hellthinking

At first, the child nodded softly taking a few small steps after Esen. But he stops, fingers fold around Esen’s hand to stop him too before he spoke. “… Esen, This isn’t a good idea. I know that you want to save them, but what if they attack us?”

“then we fight back.”  esen says it gently.  “i know this may be an exercise in futility.  but i gotta try.  WE GOT ALL THE WAY HERE, didn’t we?  it’s too late to turn back now.”  esen doesn’t want to admit that alma’s right--that in all honesty, this is a bad idea, that THE THIRDS WILL PROBABLY ATTACK ON SIGHT.  but he has to try.

She stares at the boy, studying him, posture, shaking hands, scuffed and rumpled uniform, taking whatever information she can grab to start forming a better picture of the exorcist than what is just presented here.

“Ask what you want. I will answer what I deem fit for you to know, understand that I do not hold all the answers you look for.”

“i understand.  I’M JUST LOOKING FOR SOME ANSWERS, about who they were as people.  nobody here really got to know them--NOT THE WAY THEY GOT TO KNOW OTHER EXORCISTS, ma’am.  i wanna know who they are.  i want to be able t’help them, y’know?”

esen swears he sounds stupid saying it aloud.  but now that his mouth gets running, he keeps going,  “like--did they have any other friends?  were they ALLOWED to have friends, rather.”

            ❝ Ah, you don’t have to keep with the Mx. bit, Esen, just Miku is fine. ❞ They hum, waving it off a bit. ❝ Yes, most do if you give away that you’re listening in, people consider it an invasion of their privacy. ❞ They explain, seeing rather care free about it.

     “then why would they talk about things where people can listen in?”  esen asks softly, clearly the slightest bit confused.  “if y’all don’t want people to know, don’t talk about it in front of others, yeah?”  he’s trying.  manners are beyond him.

            ❝ Ah? I have that same habit, so don’t worry about it, just remember to never say too much to someone you’re eavesdropping on on what you’ve overheard. ❞ They warn, their expression turning a bit mischievous.

“why gosh, mx. miku.”  esen’s laugh is gentle, the nod serious,  “i wouldn’t’ve thought of that myself.  y’all are real clever you know?”  esen plays with his own finders for a moment, before he asks miku,  “do people get OFFENDED EASY, if you eavesdrop?”

           They had heard him, but hadn’t thought he’d been speaking to them. A jump comes from Miku, quickly looking at him, and relaxing upon realizing who it is. Their expression lightens as they seem to smile under their innocence. ❝ Have you? And hear I’d thought I was keeping a bit of low profile around here. It’s a pleasure to meet you as well, I assume you’re Esen? ❞

     “ayup, I’M THE LOCAL ESEN.”  esen smiles relaxingly at miku, before he answers in reverse order,  “you do keep a low profile--i’m just prone to eavesdropping on people often, so i can hear plenty about you.  IT’S NICE TO MEET YOU THOUGH.  i’ve heard tons of good about you.”

     “big brother, big brother,”  esen says, grabbing alma’s arm excitedly,  “i found someone willing to ferry us to edo.  WE’RE ON OUR OWN FOR GETTING BACK, but they’re willing to take us there.”

     esen lands on the ground with a soft ‘omph’ for emphasis.  HE && ZUKI HAD BEEN PARTNERED TOGETHER, something from central not caring that the last time there had been a prolonged bit of time between them, both of them had nearly slaughtered the other.  esen’s already forgiven zuki though, && done his best to put it out of his mind.

     “all clear.”  he hollers up to zuki, watching hr with a slightly concerned look.

     “hey, hey,”  esen wraps an arm around miku’s small frame, smiling at her in the most friendly manner he can manage.  “it’s nice to finally meet you.  i’ve heard tons about you, mx. miku.”  esen releases miku after another moment, not wanting to make miku any sort of uncomfortable.

taintedangel replied to your post “     “why am i so cute?””

"Cause you're related to me."

“The other thirds?”

Liliya repeats the last half of the boy’s question, fingers idly toying with the crust of the bread from her lunch, of course she knew them. Blue eyes cast over her sudden lunch mate.

Ah so this had been their other project.

“Yes I knew them all well. I take it you would like to know more from someone in their past, as opposed to reports you should not have clearance to.”

     well, that look is better than one of disgust that esen normally gets.  but he shoves some of his food into his mouth, listening intently to liliya for a few moments.  EXCELLENT.  answers.  real answers.  that’s all esen’s wanted.

     “that’d be right.”  he says it softly, his hands shaking the slightest bit, from anxiety that bubbles up.  what if liliya says NO, that she won’t comply?  she’s the only lead esen has...

taintedangel:

Part of him knew this would eventually happen. What happened to the thirds was unfortunate, but the thirds didn’t care about anyone but thirds so smolma thought going after them was pointless. But Esen… Esen was his brother and currently he was the only one he had left.

Smolma knows hes being used. He knows that Esen’s only trying to make up to him so that he can get to the thirds.. And he doesn’t care. 

Hes still for a moment, before just nodding.

     esen hugs his brother tightly.  he’s not trying to use alma, at all--esen’s not even aware of how manipulation works, in all honesty.  he just knows that WITHOUT ALMA, this entire plan is going to shit, && IN ALL HONESTY, esen is afraid of doing something without alma.

     how pitiable.

     “i can pack a bag for you,”  esen mumbles, his hands shaking in nervousness.  “we can be out of here soon.  thank you so much.”

“WHO THE FUCK SAID YOU’RE GOING TO JAPAN—!?”

     “i’m a year old, i can make these kinds of choices for myself.”

taintedangel:

Esen was leaving. Just like everyone else before him, just like tamashi and yuu. Esen was leaving. Before it had been just like every other night. Alma couldn’t sleep so he took to wondering the halls. Thats when he stumbled across Esen, and despite the pain it brought, he kept a relatively emotionless face on.

“….. Yeah..” Thats all he could say before he turned away. He didn’t want Esen to see the tears beginning to fall. “….. They’re in japan. They feel as if this is better since they have a purpose there.”

Now how did smol know that? It didn’t matter because smols walkin away.

     “COME WITH ME.”  esen begins to follow alma, grabbing him gently.  “i can’t make it to japan by myself.  they’ll catch me, && WE BOTH KNOW IT.  i need your help, big brother.”

     esen finds himself shaking a bit.  this is a risky endeavor, he knows--WITH NO GUARANTEE IT’LL ACTUALLY WORK.  there’s no guarantee this will work, && WITH ESEN’S LUCK, he’ll be branded a traitorous akuma for leaving.  but he has to try.  && IF ALMA GOES WITH HIM, it looks more like a mission, than esen running off by himself.

     “please.”
