@splitsoulkatana crossed paths.

This new life had been unexpected as much as it was unwanted. Death had claimed him soundly and even in death there was no rest for the wicked.

Here, however, there was nothing but rest. There wasn't any impending doom, no missions, no nothing that required his immediate attention. There was Megumi, but again, he certainly didn't want need him and wanting him has yet to be seen as a possibility.

It has brought him to spend some of his time inside his condo, occasionally venturing out to stretch his legs and get a lay of the land.

But not today.

Today he stole one of his condo-mate's fluffy bathrobe and wore it as he scrolled on his phone with a cup of coffee in the other hand. Leaning over the railing to the busy city below, he was fine with spending this lazy and good for nothing day alone--

"Huh."

He blinks over the edge of his (also stolen) cup at the particular sight of a young woman-- no teenager?

"You... look familiar."

At 7:59AM, three knocks sound on Maki's door.

Opening it reveals a tall blond man dressed in a three-piece suit, carrying a paper bag of four Instacool Sodas in his arms. He looks rather out of place and vaguely ill-at-ease; there's an imbalance in his posture as he idly shifts his weight between his shoes.

"Good morning," Aurelius begins, a little stiffly. "Are you...still available?"

"I believe we arranged to meet this morning."

The paper bag crinkles in his hands as he tilts to reveal the contents.

"These are my last four bottles. I wonder if I could try one of them myself? And I didn't...quite catch your name..."

Alright, that one got her good.

Shoko snorts a small laugh before tucking her hands into that lab coat, stepping a little closer, "Well, certainly not of my own choice."

"You didn't answer my question though, how have you been?"

@splitsoulkatana / spiralefes: big diving!?

"Maki-san, this seems wildly dangerous!"

The wind is wild up here in the Sky Strewn Isles. It had piqued Yuuta's interest when he first saw them in the distance, but now - now he's standing at the highest one among some other brave souls.

He's a bit of a thrill seeker, but this seemed excessive.

"I don't know about this!" He's digging his heels in just a little to make her slow down, his eyes darting over the edge once more. The bottom was too far for him to see properly, but -

"There's an option to go without a parachute!?"

@splitsoulkatana

As soon as he saw her name appear on his phone, Toge had made a beeline for the middle of the city. He had no doubts Yuuta would be there before him, but he wanted to see Maki too!

He slid to a stop upon spotting the familiar frame of his friend, excitement buzzing in every joint.

"Maki-! You're here!"

@splitsoulkatana liked for a starter ❄️

In his spare time, it wasn't uncommon for the demon to people watch, posted upon higher areas like a feline that would observe it's territory. However, none of this really belonged to Douma, he was aware, it would not stop him from prowling in the late nights and taking information back to his Lord by sunrise.

Information was vital, it formulated strategies. For what? He wouldn't know, not really one to spend the time trying to create a plan of action. He would leave that to someone more experienced like Kokushibo.

Douma's attention is caught by a figure wandering the street below him, one he was unfamiliar with. Did she arrived with one of the more recent eclipses?

Perhaps he should greet her, make a new friend.

The demon lowered himself with a light rustle of clothing as he leapt from the overhang he had perched upon, admittedly not expecting the tinge of pain that shot up the backs of his heels from the impact. Right, he needed to be a little more careful, lest he end up with broken legs.

"Good evening, miss."

His tone was soft, but there were obvious indications something was off. His smile too wide, iridescent eyes shimmering in the low lighting like an animal peering from the darkness.

@splitsoulkatana

"Oh my goodness! You're so pretty!"

She skips up to the other young woman with big eyes. Gasping at her muscles.

"So strong! I admire when girls are like me!"

She grins. Sticking her hand out.

"I'm Kanroji. Mitsuri Kanroji! Oh! But cute girls can call me Mitsuri if they want!"

[oovertime]

@splitsoulkatana from here.

Zen'in approached him. He took a look at her. She certainly appeared different.

Most of them did.

"A few months. I think you're the last one I've found."

Yaga and Kusakabe must be beside themselves at this point. The only second year left was Panda.

Oh, right.

The Tokyo campus was gone.

"How did you end up here?"
