Offering aid (Open RP)
Kintoleski reaches down to offer his new ally a hand up. As he does, he looks at the enemy. “You have made a grave error, attacking this city. This place is protected by legendary warriors, and by myself. You should flee while you still have the chance.”
The enemy doesn’t move. It seems to be sizing him up.
Looking to the person he just helped, Kintoleski says “You are my witness. I offered it a fair chance to run, yes?”
Knowing the Feeling (Open RP)
KIntoleski sits in the back tables of Pan-Paka-Pan, looking over the declassified reports about the Roidmudes.
He reaches a specific paragraph, detailing how their creator saw the Roidmudes as “science projects” and his own children as “failed experiments” and he shudders. Not just from how callous a living being could be to other, but also from the realization that that was his life in Dark Fall.
“To think, these marvelous living machines were treated as nothing more than tools. They could have been so much more, had they been given a chance.” Kintoleski shakes his head solemnly, even as he eats another chunk of curry bread.
He dries a tear, and looks around, now aware that other people saw his response.
(To Heart,16) "I like that look in your eyes. I, Kintoleski, general of Dark Fall, challenge you to a fight!" The golden man hands over a letter of challenge to make it formal. "I will wait for you at Quarry #3. I look forward to seeing what you can do."
Heart smirks a bit. “Interesting. I could use a good fight..” He clenched his fists, remembering the real person he wanted to beat up. Accepting the letter of challenge, he nods. “Then I will see you there.”
spiritmuseinc:
Heart does so, covering his ears…
while Banno stands fast against the shockwave from one area…not immediately aware of where Kintoleski could be coming from next.
Unsure whether this new foe is all machine or not, Kintoleski tries for nerve strikes, lashing out with the heel of his hand against shoulders, legs, spine. His last hit strikes at the back of the belt, where it connects to itself.
“Ah-ha. So that’s the secret.”Kintoleski returns to his original location. “Heart, I take it this is the one you wanted to deal with. Shall we do it together?”
(To Heart,16) "I like that look in your eyes. I, Kintoleski, general of Dark Fall, challenge you to a fight!" The golden man hands over a letter of challenge to make it formal. "I will wait for you at Quarry #3. I look forward to seeing what you can do."
Heart smirks a bit. “Interesting. I could use a good fight..” He clenched his fists, remembering the real person he wanted to beat up. Accepting the letter of challenge, he nods. “Then I will see you there.”

“Banno..” He growled, as the golden Drive jumped down off of the crane. “So, you’ve found another Roidmude, haven’t you? But I don’t see his number…” he approaches, walking maliciously.
Kintoleski looks over Banno in Gold Drive form. He knows of the Kamen Rider, and has followed his story since the day Shinnosuke revealed his identity at the hospital.
“You may bear the form of a Kamen Rider, but I can tell you have done nothing to deserve it.” Kintoleski says with an even voice. “You are an impostor, a perversion of something pure and you will pay for that affront.”
He looks to Heart. “Take a step to your left. I would not wish to damage your hearing.” Having given ample warning, Kintoleski raises his hands and brings them together in a sonic thunderclap, sending a massive shockwave through the air and across the ground at Banno. But even before Banno can attempt to defend himself, Kintoleski has flickered out of sight, to find another angle to strike from.
(To Heart,16) "I like that look in your eyes. I, Kintoleski, general of Dark Fall, challenge you to a fight!" The golden man hands over a letter of challenge to make it formal. "I will wait for you at Quarry #3. I look forward to seeing what you can do."

He jumps forward with a roar, striking downward at him with a hand axe chop..more than willing to demonstrate his power.
There’s a very good reason Kintoleski choose this place for the battle. As Heart’s blow staggers him, the metal on metal causes a massive tremor in the ground beneath their feet. Had they done this in the city, it would have been devastating.
As the last echoes of the ringing clear from the air, Kintoleski returns the favor, driving all his considerable might into an uppercut to Heart’s chin.
He takes the uppercut without flinching, though it does drive him back a few feet. “Not bad..” he casually rubs the little bit of blood off of his chin..before striding towards him again.
A jumping superman punch would follow..
Kintoleski adjusts his stance, grabbing Heart by the elbow and judo tossing him over his head. He spins on his heels to make sure that Heart will not strike him in the back.
“Hold your strike, Heart. I sense a fell presence in the air.” Kintoleski holds up a hand. “Someone is watching us, there!” He points to the crane atop the quarry. “It feels like you. However, this presence is devoid of any light.”
(To Heart,16) "I like that look in your eyes. I, Kintoleski, general of Dark Fall, challenge you to a fight!" The golden man hands over a letter of challenge to make it formal. "I will wait for you at Quarry #3. I look forward to seeing what you can do."

When Heart arrives at the arranged time, Kintoleski is doing one-finger pushups.
“I want it to be known, this is not a fight to the death. I seek a worthy opponent, as you no doubt do. If at any time you believe you have more pressing matters, I shall allow you to leave. And I hope you will afford me the same courtesy. May I have your name?”
Kintoleski throws off his sweatshirt, allowing his gleaming golden body to reflect the light of the sun.
Heart raised an eyebrow at the push-ups. “I understand. There is only one person I want to kill at present..” he nodded, before speaking again. “I am Heart. Roidmude 002. Most would know me as a villain. Shall we keep true forms out of this?”
“What you see before you is my true form. It is the form I bore in combat against the legendary warriors of Earth. However, if you have a true form, Heart, I would prefer to see it.” Kintoleski points to Heart. “For if we, who draw joy from combat, must hide our faces, then what good is the fight? Show me your true form, Heart.”
Heart simply grinned. “As you wish.” He crosses his arms in front of him, hand palms facing outward in claw like fashion, assuming his Ultimate Evolution form with a battle cry.
Kintoleski flexes. “It’s quite a dramatic change, Heart. Come at me. I shall test your strength first. You get the first strike!” He is certain that as they are both made of metal, that Heart will not hold back. But he also feels as if they are being watched.
(To Heart,16) "I like that look in your eyes. I, Kintoleski, general of Dark Fall, challenge you to a fight!" The golden man hands over a letter of challenge to make it formal. "I will wait for you at Quarry #3. I look forward to seeing what you can do."

Kintoleski and Shitataare’s First Date? ( @perfectgoldstandard )
“ You only deserve the best. That’s why I needed to change that old outfit. I’m glad you like it. ”
Kintoleski pulled her chair out from the table for her to sit down. She thanked him for his kindness and, when they properly settled into their chairs, a waiter arrived at the table with menus.
“ Thanks! ” - said Shitataare as she took the menu. She quickly scanned the menu and picked out what she wanted - “ I want Seared Salmon Fillets with Teriyaki Butter Wine Sauce for entry. What you will choose, my dear? ”
“I shall have the Wagyu Steak with the red wine sauce and mashed potatoes. And if my lovely date agrees, I believe we will share a creme brulee.” Kintoleski looks to Shitaatare for confirmation.
“ Is this a dessert? It is the first time that I will eat one. ”
Shitataare was excited to try that dessert with Kintoleski. She wasn’t worrying too much, since she knows Kintoleski has a good taste for sweets.
“ This place is so romantic. ” - she held his hand tight, looking at him with a tender smile - “ How did you find this place? I never heard about it before. ”
“A creme brulee is a custard with a layer of burnt sugar on top. It is quite delicious.” He looks out the window as she asks the question. “I was taking a five mile run at dawn one day, and decided to change my path to see what else was out there. I found this place quite by accident. However, I am glad I did.”
Kintoleski and Shitataare’s First Date? ( @perfectgoldstandard )
“ This dress is not suitable for a refined place like this one. ”
She turned the faucet on and the water coming from it began to surround her entire body, turning into a beautiful light blue dress.
After a few minutes, Shitataare finally appeared on the table that Kintoleski chose.
“ What do you think? Is it good? ”
“On your body, it is a work of art that only you could wear. I do like it.” He gives her a kiss and a warm smile.
“ You only deserve the best. That’s why I needed to change that old outfit. I’m glad you like it. ”
Kintoleski pulled her chair out from the table for her to sit down. She thanked him for his kindness and, when they properly settled into their chairs, a waiter arrived at the table with menus.

“I shall have the Wagyu Steak with the red wine sauce and mashed potatoes. And if my lovely date agrees, I believe we will share a creme brulee.” Kintoleski looks to Shitaatare for confirmation.
“He definitely deserves the attention.” Kintoleski nods. “There is an element of treasure hunting. Geocaching is a form of hiking where a GPS device is used to track a box that has a prize in it. And each time the prize is found, the treasure hunters place a new prize inside for the next batch of explorers.”
“GPS?” Saki blinked, the term clearly flying over her head. Honestly, she wasn’t really all that great with technology in general, and in a town like Yuunagi, it was somewhat easy to be a bit behind the times. “Ah, but I see! I guess that does sound fun!”
“And there’s plenty of space out here in Yuunagi to do it! I guess you could technically do something like that in the city, but it sounds like it might be a bit more complicated…”
“With all the places that a treasure can be hidden in Yuunagi, it’s surprising you do not have more geocachers coming here. Part of the thrill however is leaving clues that ultimately lead to the treasure. With your permission, I would like to leave one of the clue boxes in the garden at the back of your bakery.”

Kintoleski has the waiter bring him to the table nearest the window, and waits for her return. From the smile on her face, it seems this first date has done well by her.

She turned the faucet on and the water coming from it began to surround her entire body, turning into a beautiful light blue dress.

“ What do you think? Is it good? ”
“On your body, it is a work of art that only you could wear. I do like it.” He gives her a kiss and a warm smile.
“Your father’s bread is a pleasure of mine. Some would say a ‘guilty’ pleasure, but I have no guilt about it.” He places the money for the bread on the counter.
“I have heard that girls your sister’s age like to try a great deal of things. So, I created a trial program for children. For two months, they can try out any of the classes, from modern dance to geocaching, and if they find something they truly like, their parents can pay a discounted rate to put them into that class.”
“Well, I’m sure that he’ll be glad to hear that!” Saki beamed, taking the money and running it through the cash register, counting out his change and handing it back to him. “Father’s bread is the best there is, after all! Famous bakeries around Japan have been trying to scout him ever since I was still little.”
As Kintoleski explained his new program to her, she found herself nodding along. “That sounds like a wonderful idea! But, geocaching? I’ve never heard of it… is it something like digging for treasure?”
“He definitely deserves the attention.” Kintoleski nods. “There is an element of treasure hunting. Geocaching is a form of hiking where a GPS device is used to track a box that has a prize in it. And each time the prize is found, the treasure hunters place a new prize inside for the next batch of explorers.”
Kintoleski and Shitataare’s First Date? ( @perfectgoldstandard )
“Just wait.” As the sun sets through the window, the last rays of light shine through a series of prisms and crystals hanging from the ceiling, bathing the whole restaurant in a soft rainbow.
“This is what I see when I look into your eyes. Nothing but radiant beauty.” He gives her another kiss as the waiter comes around.
“ You are so sweet, Kintoleski. ”
She couldn’t put what she was feeling into words. She just kissed him back with so much passion that she didn’t notice the waiter coming.
“ Oh, sorry! ” - she gave him a quick, shy smile - “ Dear, can you find a table for us. I’ll go to the bathroom quickly. ”
Kintoleski has the waiter bring him to the table nearest the window, and waits for her return. From the smile on her face, it seems this first date has done well by her.

Mai was simply collecting groceries for her family. After she had collected her food items, she had paid the cashier and was on her way home until she saw somebody familiar, very familiar. “Um excuse me?”
“A good morning to you.” He nods, remembering every fight they ever had. Those days are passed, and he is thrilled to be in the presence of such a mighty warrior. “Would you like some help getting your groceries home?”
“You’re Kintoleski!” Mai said in shock, holding Chopi defensively. “But Saki and I…” Mai stuttered, trying to get her words out. Just how could he be back?
What was even stranger to her is that he’s offering to help her and not fight her.
Chopi then came out and managed to convince Mai that she didn't feel any dark presence anymore. After hearing that, she calmed down and turned her attention back to Kintoleski. “You can help but um… you’re not going to cause any more trouble right?” Mai asked, feeling a little uneasy.
He had expected some hesitation from her. He hasn’t seen her as often as he has Saki, and the knowledge of his change in personality hasn’t progressed as far as he would like.
“I have no intention of causing trouble. I was defeated by the stronger warriors too many times to go back to that life.”
“Thank goodness…” Mai sighed in relief. “I don’t want to constantly fight you every time we meet, not to mention it was also a struggle to constantly defeat you.” Mai admitted before smiling.
“If it was a struggle to defeat me, I at least hope that you were able to grow and learn from those battles. You provided me with the greatest challenge I have ever faced, and my only regret is that I had to be evil to face you.”

“Sounds fun!” Saki nodded her head. “I wonder if Minori would be interested in taking gymnastics… she’s at that age where she’s trying all sorts of things, after all.”
“And yes, eight loaves of curry bread it is! As usual, you sure eat a lot, Kintoleski- my dad considers you one of his best customers, since you always buy a bunch whenever you come here.” She remarked, gathering up the curry breads and putting them on a tray. “Lately he’s been making more curry bread than usual just for that reason.”
“Your father’s bread is a pleasure of mine. Some would say a ‘guilty’ pleasure, but I have no guilt about it.” He places the money for the bread on the counter.
“I have heard that girls your sister’s age like to try a great deal of things. So, I created a trial program for children.
