Yang in the distance slowly turning her head, looking like she was about too commit a murder.

“...I’ll get the cleaner ready, lemme know if you’d like help.”

☯ @kathexismania​ like for a starter ☯

There was a solemn mood that hung in the air around the man as the young woman approached, the swirl of emotions resonating with Ashi on a personal level. It was something they shared with one another, the strong emotions of sorrow, grief, and rage that often came from the depth of their beings and often took hold at the worst moments. Voices unable to be silenced in the maelstrom of such melancholy moods, unable to be ignored or fought with much resistance when they did sink their claws into them. No one would’ve guessed such moods would be held in the depths of such a young woman, barely out of the prime and coming into adolescence, but having suffered great trauma at such an early age that had left various lacerations on her soul. Whether those would ever truly heal was only something time would tell and reveal as it went.

A soft hand reached out, only a mere moment of hesitation that could be missed with a blink, before it came to rest on the broad shoulders of her surrogate father figure. Sympathy clear as it was painted across her features as she took a seat next to the other. Letting the silence hang between them for a moment, knowing that there was no need for words really when her actions were just as clear. Reaching out with her own being to try and comfort him, bring some semblance of peace and serenity to him even if just for a moment or two. Help stave off those feelings as they bubbled and brewed, painting the man’s being once more.

It honestly hurt her to see him in such a state, knowing that the presence of such emotions would never truly vanish from him. Not that Hanzo would ever let them truly vanish, the man was in harmony with his emotions, both positive and negative. Both shaping who he was and finding strength in even his flaws, not shying away or hiding them like most. It was an admirable trait and one that Ashi was picking up and learning slowly from him, absorbing that lesson of being at peace with oneself even when the maelstrom hit. Though, it would take time for her to truly grasp the concept and make it part of her. She’d be wise beyond her years though with his and other lessons that had been transcribed to her by a certain Samurai, another who too was a surrogate father figure to her.

Moments in silenced passed, almost seeming like an eternity was going by but at the same time that the moment had been paused, everything still around them. A gentle squeeze came as a small but soft smile soon graced Ashi’s face, reaching with warmth to the other.

“You definitely know how to pick a place to brood.”

Soft joke attempted to lighten the mood that was surrounding them, wanting to brighten Hanzo’s feelings up. That trait was something she inherited from her biological father, the joking and playful banter. Even if it was just a resent discovery and one that had only blossomed once she started to change, having never thought she had it in her to jest and joke. Though, she supposed it was more playful sarcasm and sass than anything truly comedic and silly.

‘Lead the way.’

The young deity smiles up at the other, taking his hand into her and letting him lead the way to find Allison and Emily. It would be nice to see the Young family, having grown a fondness for them and doing her best to visit when she could. 

Though at the mention of peach soda, Kazane’s eyes seemed to light up with a sparkle. She already had a fondness for said fruit, it was probably one of her favorites, and the fizzy soft drink of the mortal realm had come to be something she enjoyed immensely. To combined the two? She was already excited about it.

‘That sounds delicious, I’d love to try some!’

Excitement clear in her tone. Already wanting to share the drink too with Raiden and Fujin, see if they’d like it too. Typical behavior from the small deity, always wanting to share with the two other Gods.

‘I’m sorry, I just couldn’t help myself.’

There the soft sound of chimes that sound like giggles and a somewhat apologetic smile on her face. She looked like a child not regretting the act of mischief she just performed.

[swordsxandxshadows]

‘I am probably going to be scolded later, but I cannot help myself with what I am about to do. A repeat of history is about to happen and I am about to pull the same stunt I did on Johnny Cage when we first met.’

Is she sorry about what she is about to do? Probably not TOO much, but she is prepared for some possible scolding later. Least it brought a fond memory of Johnny Cage diving for the young Goddess when she fell, only learning after the child could land on her feet. The small smile on Raiden’s face had been worth almost giving the poor actor a heart attack.

[swordsxandxshadows]

‘I know it’s usually Kidd’s thing, but I think I’ll steal it for today and have fun messing with a mortal right now.’

Kazane just has the most innocent look upon her face, a smile that seemed innocent enough but to anyone who knew her knew better. It radiated mischief and she was going to have some fun.

"Oh you don't have too. You know I just do these things sometimes." And then, Yang smirked, putting one hand on her chin while the other held her elbow. Watching the other like a hawk. "So then... Tell me, got any recent plans?" Oh yes. That was the teasing face.

“I know, but you know I’m going to return the favor regardless.”

The wizard returned the smirk, already plotting out what he could give Yang in return and to show his appreciation for the thoughtful gift. Though, at the teasing words from the female warrior, his face began to heat up in response to the point of reaching the tips of his ears. Knowing exactly what was being implied with that tone of voice and the way she had carefully worded it all.

It was no secret, least one he couldn’t hide from her for the most part as the other could almost read him like an open book half the time, that he was committed to one fiery Grandmaster but also seemed to be having a growing fondness for a certain half-Edenian man that had since entered their lives. Jade eyes shifting away from the other, less they betray him further with the topic at hand. Doing his best to deny that he might have started having a growing attraction and fondness to the man.

“N-Nothing really planned...”
