a bit more about intangibility ability, as i have a bit of thoughts:

it applies to anyone that is in direct contact with him. if anyone holds him, they'll also phase through objects & can interact with Haunt like usual. once they let go of him they lose the ability. same applies to items. if he has handcuffs on, until he has moment to pick their lock or break them off, they'll be restricting his movement, regardless of his state.

any electronics put on him like trackers, lie detectors or shock collars also remain and work as intended, even if he's actively using the ability.

Haunt himself isn't sure what's the limit of people and items he can put under it. besides obvious limitation related to how many things he can carry, the more he puts into the state the more unstable & tiring it becomes, forcing him to get in & out of state within short times. the most he pulled with him was three people at once & after that promised himself never again.

while Haunt can control how much of him can phase i.e. make only his arm intangible, anything and anyone else he can only change fully. he cannot make someone's arm only intangible element, either whole person or nothing.

he has no augments enhancing this ability.

a bitterness sat at the back of her tongue, a familiar tepidity settling behind gold-lacquered eyes as she exhaled a dim caress that kissed her throat raw with a bite of galvanic pain. the sight soured as pallid auric dissipated into an insalubrious amber, reeking of ruination as the grip on her sword tightened, white knuckling the claymore with taut sinew. each breath from her aching lungs blistered the air, splintering into sulfurous veins & scalding every cell within.

narcotic bloomed in blackened ribs, excruciation made rapture, as the ache of velvet-bruised climbed along the flare of hymns cast onto bones. she grinned, a mouthful of sunlight, as canines dug into her bottom lip; rapacious, predatory eyes set upon the individual in front of her.

was he truly attempting to bargain with her ? under normal circumstances, it would be enough to draw an embittered laugh from bruised ribs, the intrepidity worth commending. she clicks her tongue, a derisive tut of disapproval. “ you really should demand better help. ” even in her piqued state, she spoke in dulcet, honeyed criticism. the cumbrous sword is hefted from where it rested, acuate tip dented into the floor. “ but this isn’t a negotiation. you’re not going anywhere. ”

[rdhnt]

" if i had any say in that, i'd actually take none. pretty sure if it wasn't for them hanging around, you wouldn't even be there. or if it was because of me, it would be more of a fair fight. " he knew he couldn't butter her up nor he cared about the fairness, but call it a force of habit at this point. always seem much more sweeter than what's inside.

smile momentarily disappeared with a sigh as his suggestion was rejected. of course hero would hold up to the virtues. making things harder for both of them. so it's until he tires her out or one of them is out cold.

" that's a shame. i'm sure we could've figure something out where wolf is full & sheep is safe. but if you say so. maybe next time we'll have a better chance. " a slight bow. he cannot engage in direct fight. no amount of hand to hand fight skill will help against claymore in the face. man, that mission was more of pain in the ass than it was worth.

" & if you don't mind me asking, who do i have honor to go against? i'm pretty sure i've seen you before, but i'm not fully up to date with superhero stage. " a brief moment of honesty, he is not prepared for the fight nor is he familiar with her abilities. dismissing the obvious sword. a slight step back, heel already back in the door, Haunt was ready to dash moment anything happens.

Satoru was, at the very least, a curious person. Not too stealthy otherwise, but the fact he was a kid physically and part of SDN lended itself well to hiding in plain sight as a hero. Not many people expected a kid to either tail them or attempt to put a stop to any activities. The latter especially unexpected, his physical appearance matching the expected physical combat abilities of a 10 year old child poor.

Something had felt off about the individual he was, now, tailing his gut told him to continue to follow. But this was just something he was taking interest in his free time and once things get sketchy he'll dip, surely. Satoru continued to follow behind Haunt, staying close to the wall as well though that'd made it all the more difficult to follow. That was until Haunt walked through the wall, stopping him in his tracks for a second, confusion crossing his features for the briefest of moment until Haunt was close to him.

Startled, Satoru jumped back, a nervous smile immediately appearing on his face. All these powers still scared him, he just can never get used to it. Composing himself as much as he could try and hide his nerves, smile still on his face. Yet the following threats made it worse. Ah, he shouldn't have gotten involved, not on his time off. Was what he was thinking anyways. "Can't I just follow you? I'm bored." A cheeky attempt, certainly playing off his tailing of the other. "Where ya going that's so dangerous? Sounds fun." He put his hands behind his head, the aforementioned smile turning into a pout. Satoru was always decent at pretending, lying was another story, but pretending? He got by in life by pretending. Maybe he'd be able to tag along, find out more and go back with the information for later, maybe the revival would activate and he'd hightail it out of there. Though Satoru purposefully chose to ignore that bit about parents, it touched a very sore spot.

[rdhnt]

a grin for a brief moment stretched wider at the initial reaction. people getting scared of his powers will never get old.

however the response made any smile waver. he was bored, so he followed a random guy? like yeah, he could understand a bit of curiosity, but that's a bit too much, isn't it?

" ...are you actually serious? you're not supposed to follow random people. the stranger danger & all that shit. " do they not teach basic safety now? & then they wonder why world is getting dumber & dumber.

on the other end, isn't he in the same issue? he got himself stuck with this random child & instead of reasonably getting away, he just stopped to entertain. probably some already swear him off for being late. but eh, he'll deal with it when the time comes. for now, how do you discourage kids?

" there's nothing fun about going to dangerous places. you get hurt, things get broken, you might even die. i'm not going to tell you where something like that is. " & even if it wasn't, he wouldn't say it. kids are such tattletales.

" i can go there because i had to study for a looong time to make sure i'm back in one piece. you're at least couple years too young to even start learning this kind of thing. " that might be a bit of a stretch, but let's hope it's enough.

Hidden Injuries

"Wait - you're bleeding."

"Why didn't you say anything?"

"Okay, I have you, I have you -"

"Don't you dare pass out on me."

"You good? You look a little pale."

"Your shirt... is that blood?"

"Oh, my god, are you serious? I think it's broken!"

"Why would you hide this from us?!"

"Okay - okay, breathe. We're going to help you."

"You idiot! You could have died!"

"I'm - I'm calling an ambulance -"

"Why are you breathing so shallowly?"

"You can barely stand."

"Sit down. Right now."

"I'm going to fix you up, but you have to sit still."

"I've had worse."

"It's not that bad, really..."

"I'm just a little... light headed...."

"It's barely bleeding at all."

"Aw, man, I liked this shirt."

"Oh, yeah that's... huh. That's a lot of blood."

"I'm just gonna sit right here... for a minute..."

"My chest really... hurts..."

"I can't really breathe -"

"Ow. It's fine. Ow."

"I can handle it myself."

"Oh, that? Yeah it's just... it's just a little blood..."

"Barely touched me."

"Why are there two of you?"

"I'll be fine. I'm great. I'm - I'm fantastic. Don't worry about me! I'm just gonna go... into this really nice... warm light..."

even if it's just a child, he can't allow himself to continue. any kind of tail is annoying & in all fairness, if not Haunt, someone else will take out the kid. & that will most likely be followed worried parents, police & possible heroes....

with a sigh, he walked right through the wall. knowing life, probably even something like that wouldn't discourage a child. instead of just trying to lose him, maybe scaring him a bit should shake up enough for kid to run away. through the wall once again to get closer.

he doesn't want to deal with it. a bit more gentle grin on the face than usual, as he crouched right next to Satoru.

" scram kid. it's my first & last nice warning. " hand reached out, but froze mid way. originally he wanted to ruffle his hair, but on the second thought, yeah, no. it went back to rest on his leg. " if you keep going after me, you might not make it back in one piece & i'm sure your parents wouldn't like that. "

[rdhnt]

@divinafatum ♥'d

once he heard a commotion outside of the office, it was clear that Haunt didn't have much time left. of course with more people from Red Ring hanging around, it would be reported to SDN pretty quickly. all he needed is download some files from the computer, throw drive into his pocket & then get away in middle of fight...

yet as he phased through the door, he was met with a more disappointing view. few other criminals already down on the floor & hero's eyes were already on him. whoops.

despite the not favorable position, a smile appeared on his face, followed by a laugh & a slow clap. might as well entertain the hero, until he finds a moment to lose them.

" you've already dealt with the rest? that's one impressive feat. " & just as annoying. they were meant to be a diversion, what's the use of distraction if they fall before he's done? but oh well, he'll figure something out.

" but i'm gonna get an earful for that either way. so mind letting me go? i'm not interested in a fight. "

༘⋆｡ stirring the pot starters

a mix of arguments, tension, manipulation, gossiping, fighting, & general emotional messiness!

you  weren't  supposed  to  hear  that.

don't  look  at  me  like  i'm  the  only  one  lying.

want  to  tell  them,  or  should  i?

you  think  i  don't  know  what  you  did?

i've  hit  people  for  less.

oh,  i  thought  you  already  knew.

that's  funny,  you  didn't  say  that  last  night.

say  that  again.  i  dare  you.

you  wanna  talk  about  loyalty?

no  offense,  but  if  you're  the  last  to  know,  that's  on  you.

go  ahead  -  pretend  like  it  wasn't  your  idea!

they  deserve  to  know  the  truth.

you  didn't  hear  this  from  me,  but  -

oh,  so  now  you  care?

don't  flatter  yourself.  you  were  just  convenient.

you  crossed  a  line.

we  had  bets  on  how  long  it  would  last.

it's  not  even  a  secret  anymore.

you  don't  get  to  cry  about  it  now.

touch  me  again  and  see  what  happens.

say  it  again.  louder  this  time.

you  really  thought  nobody  would  find  out?

don't  act  so  innocent.

okay,  but  am  i  the  villain  for  laughing?

tell  me  who  else  knows.  right  now.

this  whole  time,  and  you  didn't  say  a  word?

don't  act  brave  now.

you're  really  gonna  do  this  here?

it  wasn't  supposed  to  get  this  far!

you  can't  rewrite  history.

oh,  i'd  never  say  it  to  their  faces.

it  was  supposed  to  stay  between  us.

we're  all  thinking  it,  i  just  said  it.

you're  not  as  untouchable  as  you  act.

do  you  even  feel  guilty?

they  warned  me  about  you.

go  ahead,  make  it  worse.

if  you  repeat  this,  i'll  deny  everything.

the  next  thing  out  of  your  mouth  better  be  an  apology.

you're  about  three  seconds  away  from  regretting  this.

you  keep  pushing,  and  i'll  push  you  back.

they're  going  to  find  out.

one  more  lie,  and  i  walk.

they're  lying  to  you.

you  need  to  back  off.  now.

you're  defending  them?  after  everything?

don't  try  to  hide  it.

tell  me,  was  i  just  a  placeholder?

you  really  think  sorry  fixes  this?

there's  nothing  left  to  say.

don't  act  like  you're  the  one  hurting.

i  don't  owe  you  any  explanation.

whatever  helps  you  sleep  at  night.

you  should've  seen  this  coming.

i  hope  it  was  worth  it.

i  told  the  truth.  just  not  all  of  it.

you'll  miss  me  before  i  miss  you.

smile.  you're  ruining  the  mood.

i'd  watch  that  tone  if  i  were  you.

it's  not  my  fault  you  believed  me.

you  have  such  a  talent  for  pretending  you're  innocent.

we  both  know  this  is  over.

i  never  said  i  was  a  good  person.

i  thought  you  were  different.

about.

fc: Uda - Kuchi ga Saketemo Kimi ni wa

name: William Douglam John Doe if anyone asks nickname: Haunt, John Doe age: 30 height: 185 cm affiliation: Red Ring

abilities

intangibility - seemingly much more of default state, but it's possible to snap him out of the state, startling him is the most effective

flight

mind reading - improved & controlled by the augments going from the back of his neck to fingertips of right hand. originally it was a mess of inside voices wherever he went, now he can hear thoughts only of who he wants, when he wants. although now limited by need of touch

personality

generally bubbly & friendly, yet the most insincere person around. some behavior hinting on his rich family upbringing. even while bring hostile to someone, he'll put on a smile and a mocking bow he's not much of a planner, quite often not planning his mission except first few steps.

enjoys reconnaissance missions and interrogations, when possible he's first to take part in them.

background

there's not much standing out about his past if to look on the records. almost a perfect family, nice & quiet, polite kid with good grades. except few moments where he was accused of beating up someone, yet with a hefty sum & perfect performance, none seem to go beyond an accusation.

& then officially pronounced dead at 21.

except it was an attempt from his parents for him to return. either calling identity theft or fraud attempt wherever he appeared with his documents, he was very limited in legal options. but unfortunately thanks to them, he was getting a hang of business dealings in shady circles as well

with his abilities, he was a great hand when it came to gathering intel & trading information. originally he was just accepting commissions, but with time even that got boring.

originally he joined the red ring just out of pure curiosity, but soon he found his place within the organization. offer of augments to control mind reading ability was just a bonus to him
