                    ίN retrospect, perhaps Guren had gone a little too far. But the man valued the lives of his soldiers more than the childish games of a single squad, of youths who didn’t understand the gravity of war and the consequences that entailed from a single moment of juvenility. His narrowed gaze met Mitsuba’s wide-eyed one for a brief lingering moment before he released her neck, gloved hands, trembling ever so slightly from barely controlled anger, sliding back into the confines of his pockets. “Good.” He could already feel the wrinkles tickling at the corners of his eyes, the spurt of silver strands of hair sprouting from his follicles. He turned back to the reports, pinching his nose bridge as he let out an exhausted sigh, all the pent up frustration and stress over this operation clear in that single exhale of air.

                    ĢLANCING over the mission reports and briefings once again, Guren realized that he hadn’t allocated much time to checking up on Yuuichirou and the rest of them, especially after they had confronted him regarding the human experimentations. While he didn’t face her, he started to speak, hands on his waist as his heavy eyelids pored over the map sprawled over the desk. “Hyakuya Yuuichirou. Saotome Yoichi. Kimizuki Shihou. What are your thoughts on them?”

instinctively,  she sucks in a breath of air,  trying to make the fact that she’s glaring daggers at him less obvious  &  feeling a small spark of pride at how exhausted he is   —   with this attitude,  he certainly deserves it  !  purple eyes watch her superior cautiously as he turns,  though the girl is still knocked off guard as he speaks.

“   uhm,  i   —   !   “   she doesn’t think about the consequences at first  ;  his reprimand so fresh in her mind that all the soldier can think about is being useful,  having a purpose.  (  old habits die hard, after all.  )   “   er,  t - they’re good fighters   —   really dedicated,  i guess.  yoichi especially is getting close with his demon,  an’  —  an’ yuu is still really strong  !  we’re doing just as good as any squad,  especially being so young   —   !   “

she doesn’t notice how she shifts from  ‘  they  ‘  to  ‘  we  ‘  while speaking  ;  &  it’s here that violet hues narrow in a slight suspicion,  a frown tugging at the edges of her mouth.   “   ——   why  ?   “

“So in other words no matter what I do, I’m automatically cheating.” There’s a skeptical look on Mika’s face. It wasn’t as though he a vampire by choice; the brief reminder sends a silent stab in his chest. Of course the monster could never be allowed to win. That wasn’t how the stories went, was it?

“You can try,” Mikaela answers, but if that was how it was going to be, he most definitely wasn’t going to hold back. He’d learned in the course of the three months how fast each of them could move, how to adjust his own pace accordingly so as not to push them too hard or leave them behind. “But if I’m automatically cheating no matter what I do, don’t expect me to hold back. What are the rules? Most food in 30 minutes wins?” 

“   er  ...   “    pale fingers scratch the top of her head,  contemplating,  &  oblivious to mika’s struggle,  aside from an assuring look casted his way.    “   —   yeah,  that sounds right  !   “    satisfied,  she turns,  tossing a blonde tress over her shoulder with youthful confidence. 

“   don’t worry,  that just means i get to cheat,  too  !  ‘s only fair.   “   digits come to rest on a jutted hip,  other hand on her chest in pride.   “   an’ mika,  trust me   ——   i’m a great cheater  !   “   spinning the condensed form of tenjiryu ‘round on her finger,  she grins teasingly at the other  ;  before brows furrow in dilemna  &  she bites down on her lip in thought.   “   oi,  yeah,  we’ll go with that  !  —   so,  any last words,  mika  ?   “

blatant pride is the only thing that keeps her from shrinking back beneath his glare  ;  &  the soldier is far too stubborn to concede the point.   “   i   —   you weren’t wrong  !  and i - it’s just hard to think for four other people, especially when that’s not even my job.  i’m not the squad leader, if you’ve forgotten that you appointed shinoa instead of me   —   !!   “

words abruptly cut off as his hand hits her cheek, stunned into a subdued silence.  &  adolescent anger returns as shock fades, gaze brimming with scorn.  alabastrine digits furl around his hands as her superior clutches her throat  ;  though his grip isn’t tight enough to make breathing a labor.  

accusing hues match his,  &  she speaks, though irate timbre vanishes  ;  replaced with a quiet  /  bitter tone.   “   —   c - crystal.   “

         ’ oh really now? ’ he raises an eyebrow, lips quirked upwards and hands placed firmly on his hips. her form is good — lessons have been learned and hes proud she’s retained the information. ‘ well come on then, in battle your enemy isnt going to give you a green light. ’ his position is lax, hands moved to cross o’er his chest and feet planted firmly apart. a stance of battle, but without worry. ( prove him wrong to behave in such a way, sunshine girl. )

“   definitely  ——-  you just watch !   “    a surplus of complacency clear in her stance, violet hues narrowing at his blatant casualness.   “   so don’t get all cocky, mister  —  !   “   the words haven’t even left her mouth before she launches herself forward, foot outstretched to hit the other, hard.   &   limbs are held taut just as instructed, biting her lip in a stubborn determination   —   (  show him   ;   he shouldn’t underestimate her !  )

"۞" platoNIC !!

pros  &  cons of a relationship.  /  platonic mitsu + atlas  /  accepting.

PROS.

ok so like. sparring sessions where whoever wins is just so fucki i ng happy n who loses is so utterly proud boi i die.

she v, v smol  (  even tho she says she isn’t  )  !!  &  he’s like 9 inches taller  ;  platonic height differences bYE

mitsu needs validation  &  compliments  &  praise and atlas ?? ? ? is so down for caring 4 her and giving her them dklasjdkl good shit

she gets. clingY sometimes but around atlas who !! doesnt think he can rly be loved that’s probs a good thing.

CONS.

after mitsu + squad defect from the jida, she’d probably be angry as hell if atlas didn’t leave the jida too after everything they did. like, really upset  &  it’d prob be a mess lmao. 

dramatic cOMPLAINING ABT THE HEIGHT DIFFERENCE from mitsu like “why do u have to be taller ur only a year older!!!” bc he’s 5′10″  &  growing while she’s 5′1″ rip

mitsu gets. rly curious when bored and tends to pry so she’d accidentally bug him about his scar  &  topics he rly doesnt want to talk abt, w/o realizing her insensitivity.

        ’ you know, you’re moving pretty quickly through these lessons. sooner than later i’m going to run out of HARD STUFF to show you. ’ the student will surpass the master, as the saying goes. he’s careful to break away from her, long strides bring him backwards and away from her. his arms are raised, stretching! and he teasingly waves a digit at her. ‘ alright, maybe it’s time to test how much you’ve learned. come at me. ’

“   i - i am ?? heh, i mean, of course i am ! i’m surprised you’ve been able to keep teaching me this long.   “   she teases, tinges of satisfaction long - lingering. the blonde watches in awe as he strides away, head canting to the side  &  an eager expression settling.    “   wait, really ?!  ——-  hmph, it’s about time we can finally fight !   “   visage screws up in concentration,  &  she settles into a stance  (  it wouldn’t do to be sloppy now !  )  without waiting for an affirmation.   “   —  oi, you’re so on !!   “

        laughter in its most sacred and purest form; dancing along the air and making its way to a pair of ears. his expression is softer, teasing, what a oddity to see on him. ‘ oh really now? ’ he shoots, a shift of his feet and he’s moving to her left – prod of fingers at her shoulder shows she does not bend to him and he hums in approval. ‘ yes, that’s perfect. keep up the good work. ’

a grin splits through a pale visage, immediately cheered  ;  bleach - white limbs not daring to move for fear of breaking posture.   “   hah !! see, i told you i could get it.   “   visceral pride glows,  &  violet hues turn mischievous  /  impish irises light with the temptation of challenge.    “   hmph, let’s move on to some actually hard stuff, now  ——-  !   “

a dubious frown is cast at the younger, mitsuba comically squinting with violet hues, & head tilts in unrecognition.  “  ——-  h - hey !  kid, this area’s off limits for non - jida members  —  no, erm, five - year - olds ?? are allowed !  “      //  @pacxfxsm​

“How am I cheating?” The blond answered reflexively before the entirety of the accusation even sunk in, a stack of canned food nearly spilling from his arms as he spun around. “There aren’t any rules.” 

“Wait, since when was this a competition anyway?” Of course if it was he was going to win. She’d gotten the bigger boar when they went hunting last time; and he definitely wasn’t going to lose to her again.

“  hmph, there are always rules, mika. ‘s not my fault you’re a vampire  ——-  that’s automatically cheating !  “  her words are  earnest  ;  & violet hues roll as if the answer is obvious. mitsuba sends the male a teasing  / unrestful grin, a proclamation that she would win no matter what.  “  oi, everything’s a competition  —  one i’ll kick your ass at, too !! just watch !  “

@solcriis·.

“  ——-  h - hmph ! well  — your stance is ... too wide ...  “  the soldier grumbles, but her visage is pleased he’s paying attention. & she shifts to the side, determination cutting at the edges of her mouth.  “  —  so, like this ??  “
