❧ a common denominator // Äs + Hisagi
"Hn. For a while there, I thought you can’t utter more than one word." Hisagi said, observing the figure clad in white. Though, he didn’t like the words that came from underneath that mask, and that matching look on the Quincy’s eyes.
Aside from his inability to identify the other’s gender, thanks to that robe and mask, the shinigami isn’t exactly sure what he is confronting. What exactly is that person? Is it really a person? According to Second Division’s report, Soi Fon encountered a Quincy that has the features of a robot — could it be that this individual standing before him is also something else…? He can’t say for sure.
"…Are you trying to make fun of me, Quincy?" Hisagi spoke with a hint of irritation in the tone of his voice, and scowled in response to that look of mockery tossed at him.
In relation to not 'uttering more than one word', that was a common mistake, due to how little Äs spoke to begin with. When they did, however, they made every word count. The frown that tugged the shinigami's lips further down was all the encouragement Äs needed. Not only was this one easy to frighten, they were also easy to irritate. It was... actually quite amusing.
What little could be seen of Äs's face denoted that same sort of mirth from earlier, though now more subdued. It took quite a lot to get the Sternritter to do more than smirk beneath their mask, anyway. "It seems I don't have to try," Äs replied smoothly, returning their attention to the box of slowly cooling food they'd procured.
