MIST BLANKETED ARCHIMEDES, SMOTHERING ALL WHO STOOD IN IT.
The ward was like a ghost town, or at least had the appearance of one given the atmosphere. Visibility was low, making it difficult for anyone to get around– Stars and NULL alike. Even her flames offered little respite from just how thick it was, and she was beginning to grow frustrated. How the hell was she supposed to protect the Access Points like this?
Thus, as far as this Ward was concerned, the city itself could burn.
Or rather, it would, had some self-righteous do-gooder not gotten in her way. Revenant’s lip curled, eyeing him tensely. He’d borne witness to the start of her tantrum– A few fireballs, thrown wantonly into the air so as to make their landing a surprise. Even though they hadn’t ended up too close, she could hear the shouting which signified their susception to gravity.
“I don’t give a shit about this island,” she growled, fists clenching and unclenching at her sides. “The Stars deserve to have it taken away from them.”
weather phenomena such as those which had been occurring across the wards were already problem enough, the creeping mist in archimedes perhaps one of the most concerning --- if what he’d heard about it was TRUE, anyway. but fireballs being tossed and landing all across the ward? that was only causing more problems when what the place and the people really needed was a break.
“ maybe they do. ” after all, he knew almost nothing about these ‘stars,’ let alone the island he’d only recently found himself trapped on. however, he believed these NULL would prove worse for the civilians.
“ but the PEOPLE don’t, ” shiro continued, clear attempt at reasoning in his tone. it was sturdy though, his voice, full of his honest belief in the words he spoke. he didn’t want to have to fight this woman if he didn’t have to, but he’d do what it took to make sure archimedes ward was as safe as it could possibly be in the circumstances. “ they haven’t done anything but live here; don’t take your anger against THE STARS out on THEM. ”
