"Eh?" He was't expecting that answer. "No, not really. I kinda thought it would've been a problem for you."

"Eh?" He was't expecting that answer. "No, not really. I kinda thought it would've been a problem for you."
âLikewise, hottie.â He winks at him.
âShow you around Toshima? You still wanna be here? Thereâs nothing to see ⊠everythingâs in ruins. But I guess at night, you can look up at the sky and see some pretty nice stars. The entire city is shut down so thereâs no light pollution here and the sky is crystal clear.â
                        ____ . { â } . ____
Compliment is brushed off⊠as always. "Thereâs nothing at all here?â Well, the entire place did seem more than just a little run-down. Butâ âOh, stars? Do you like them or find them interesting or something?â
"Yea. There's nothin' really interesting about them or anything. I just ... like the way they look, you know? I guess they brings back happier moments too..." Of when he and his friends all used to stargaze up at the sky together.
âEhh, really ~ ? Pfff, yea right ~â He laughs it off and then his smile twists into an amused one. He then tucks both arms behind his head and laughs again.
âHeh, donât be a wiseass. The nameâs Rin ~ And whoâre you?â
                        ____ . { â } . ____
Oh, did he not believe him? Well, of course no one would, but oh well. "You can call me Ruka. Or Mr. Hero~ Nice to meet ya, Rin.â A pause. âSo, umm⊠think you can show me around here?â
"Likewise, hottie." He winks at him.
"Show you around Toshima? You still wanna be here? There's nothing to see ... everything's in ruins. But I guess at night, you can look up at the sky and see some pretty nice stars. The entire city is shut down so there's no light pollution here and the sky is crystal clear."
âEh ~ ? Youâre a what? Is that your ego talkinâ ~ ?â He taunts a bit before waving it off. âOh, itâs nothing!â He giggles while skipping closer to the male, clinging to his arm.Â
âAnyways, got a name, tall, blond and handsome?â
                        ____ . { â } . ____
"Nope. Itâs all true.â Lies. Rinâs behavior seemed⊠strange. Itâs like he kept switching between two personalities, but when Rukaâs arm was suddenly clung to, he would then just casually slip it out. He could do without clinginess from strangers.
âNaturally. Do you?â He wanted to get his name first.
"Ehh, really ~ ? Pfff, yea right ~" He laughs it off and then his smile twists into an amused one. He then tucks both arms behind his head and laughs again.
"Heh, don't be a wiseass. The name's Rin ~ And who're you?"
âYup!âÂ
ââŠâŠ.It is. But anyways! You better watch yourself here, newbie. Some guys around are like a pack of wild animals. Even if youâre not involved in the game, you might be targeted. The executioners for one are pretty dangerous. And ⊠HIMâŠ.â Rinâs expression darkens at the last name.Â
                       ____ . { â } . ____
Huh⊠that was⊠odd. Did he hear a pause? On top of that, âexecutionersâ sounded like a pretty powerful name. Stillâ âThanks for your concern, but I can handle myself~ Iâm an invulnerable hero, so nothing can kill me."Â
Then he blinks. ââŠHim?â Whoever that was, the guy didnât seem to be on good terms with him.
"Eh ~ ? You're a what? Is that your ego talkin' ~ ?" He taunts a bit before waving it off. "Oh, it's nothing!" He giggles while skipping closer to the male, clinging to his arm.
"Anyways, got a name, tall, blond and handsome?"
âA girl?â Rin giggles as he shakes his head. âSorry, but Iâm packinâ. I have a you - know - what ~ !â He winks but becomes more serious for a moment.Â
âMe? Eh, I got my reasons. I gotta set things right ⊠tie up some loose ends. You know how it goes.â
                        ____ . { â } . ____
ââŠReally?â Oh, so he was a guy? Wow⊠alright. Now that he brought it up, he did seem a bit too⊠unrefined to be an actual girl.
âThat sounds complicated. Is it really worth risking your life over?â
"Yup!"
".......It is. But anyways! You better watch yourself here, newbie. Some guys around are like a pack of wild animals. Even if you're not involved in the game, you might be targeted. The executioners for one are pretty dangerous. And ... HIM...." Rin's expression darkens at the last name.Â
âWhat, you donât know? This is the lawless district, and everyoneâs got their reasons for being here. Some people are even glad to be able to participate in this game.â He nods.â Yea, Iâm a part of it too.â
âPfff. You had no problems with walking into a destroyed area like this? Youâre either brave or an idiot ~â
                        ____ . { â } . ____
âHuhâŠâ Is that how it was? âA cute girl such as yourself⊠is in a competition to the deathâŠ? And people are happy to be in such a scary competition?â Heavy skepticism could be heard.
âYeah, I hear that a lot⊠letâs go with the first one. But if this place is as bad as you say, what are you doing here?â
"A girl?" Rin giggles as he shakes his head. "Sorry, but I'm packin'. I have a you - know - what ~ !" He winks but becomes more serious for a moment.
âMe? Eh, I got my reasons. I gotta set things right ... tie up some loose ends. You know how it goes."
âI guess you can call it a competition, though itâs much more serious than that. Itâs like a battle to the death.â
âIf youâre not a participant here, then you should leave. Toshimaâs not the best place for people to be if they have no business here. Or does that guy youâre lookinâ for have business?â
                        ____ . { â } . ____
âEh? A battle to the death?â Itâs that serious? âIsnât that illegal? And are you⊠a part of it?â
âI donât know if theyâre here⊠thatâs why Iâm looking forâem. They wouldnât have any business in this area, but they might have wandered in like I did⊠and thatâs why I cant leave just yet. You understand, yeah~?âÂ
"What, you donât know? This is the lawless district, and everyone's got their reasons for being here. Some people are even glad to be able to participate in this game." He nods." Yea, I'm a part of it too."
"Pfff. You had no problems with walking into a destroyed area like this? You're either brave or an idiot ~"
âMmm ⊠sorry, doesnât sound familiar. But itâs not like I try to remember the face of every person I meet.â
                        ____ . { â } . ____
âThatâs too badâŠâ He lets out a sigh but smiles again.
âAnyway, whatâs this Igura thing? Is it a competition of sorts?â
"I guess you can call it a competition, though it's much more serious than that. It's like a battle to the death."
"If you're not a participant here, then you should leave. Toshima's not the best place for people to be if they have no business here. Or does that guy you're lookin' for have business?"
âOh ⊠so you got separated from someone? But have you taken a good look around you? All the guys here have scary and ugly mugs and some of'em are pretty tall too. Youâll need to be more accurate.â
                        ____ . { â } . ____
ââŠOhâŠâ Good point⊠but was the ugly comment necessary? Not that it wasnât true though, regarding the men in the area. ââKay, so listen up. Heâs got dark brown, slicked back hair. Brown eyes⊠and heâs also tall. Like, super tall. Super duper tall.â Because he didnât think a person standing at approximately 6'3" would be easily forgotten. âRing any bells?â
"Mmm ... sorry, doesn't sound familiar. But it's not like I try to remember the face of every person I meet."
âHuh ⊠if youâre not a participant, then whatâre you doing here?â He asks before shrugging it off.Â
âWell whatever. You needed help, right? Since youâre a total stud, Iâll help ya out free of charge this time. ~
                        ____ . { â } . ____
ââŠMm?â Was he not supposed to be there if he wasnât a âparticipantâ? âWell, you see, I went on a trip with someone and they disappeared. I was kinda looking forâem, and found myself here.â He gives a large smile, ignoring that odd compliment(?)Â
âYouâll help me? Thanks! So, as I said, someone I know went missing and I was wondering if youâve seen him. Heâs real tall, and has a scary face.â âŠWhat a good description.Â
"Oh ... so you got separated from someone? But have you taken a good look around you? All the guys here have scary and ugly mugs and some of'em are pretty tall too. You'll need to be more accurate."
âMoney? What, you mean tags? âŠ..I guess youâre not just saying that since I donât see a tag anywhere on you. That means youâre not a participant of Igura, huh?â
                        ____ . { â } . ____
A look of confusion graced his visage. âTags? Erâ No, I meant⊠actual money.â
And now, his confusion would only grow⊠along with some faint interest. âIgura? Never heard of it before.â
"Huh ... if you're not a participant, then what're you doing here?" He asks before shrugging it off.
"Well whatever. You needed help, right? Since you're a total stud, I'll help ya out free of charge this time. ~
                        ____ . { â } . ____
âYes?â Was there something wrong with asking someone in the area for help? He smiled when he heard heâd be getting possible assistance, though it vanished in the blink of an eye once he heard those next words.Â
âA price? I donât have any money on me, thoughâŠâ
"Money? What, you mean tags? .....I guess you're not just saying that since I don't see a tag anywhere on you. That means you're not a participant of Igura, huh?"
@knxfeplay â start !
                        ____ . { â } . ____
âExcuse me!â He chimes as he makes his way up to the petite figure.
âThink you can help a guy out for a moment? Iâm in serious, serious need of help.â
"Hm?" He turns to the man who rushed over to him. What the ... the guy must be a newbie or something since he seems a little OBLIVIOUS and Rin has never seen him around before. "Are you seriously askinâ someone around here for help?"
"Well, depending on what you need, I might be willing to offer you assistance. But it might come with a price ~"
I like Rin so much more when heâs murderous as fuck
