Takumi Atsuta for Imperial Saga!

[i_just_wield_it]

.1.

[You were sent along to help Takumi with some investigation he's been working on. Problem is, you don't really know what he's doing here, either because HQ didn't tell you, or just because you were too lazy to read the briefing.]

Ah good, you made it. You brought the special gear I asked for, right?

.2.

[It's at a bar, or a party or something. Everyone is having a good time, and everyone is looking pretty unsteady on their feet by now because of the open bar.

Except Takumi, who's been sticking to fruit juice the whole time.]

I'm gonna end up carrying someone home again, aren't I?

.3.

[Circumstances have put you into conflict with Takumi and his REALLY big sword. His movements are the carefully controlled movements of someone who knows that he's going to wear himself out with wasted motion. The sword is glowing softly.]

Don't hate me for this.

.4. (Hot, older women only)

[During some down time between the endless crises that make up an RP, Takumi just showed up with a pair of drinks. One of them is juice, the other is...your favorite. Looks like someone's been paying attention.]

Hey.

If you're doing the carrying, does that mean I can drink? Or am I still on duty.

[i_just_wield_it]

Do you want a repeat of last time?

[hit_and_run]

It wasn't THAT bad!





Was it?

[i_just_wield_it]

I'm not going to say you're BAD a table dancing, but you're generally not supposed to do it on a table that still has food and drinks on it.

[hit_and_run]

I was wondering why my feet smelled like bacon that morning.

[i_just_wield_it]

Just...try to not get carried away this time.

[hit_and_run]

Not getting carried away! Mission accepted.

[i_just_wield_it]

Good enough.

Got all the gear we'll need right here.

[Guy holds up his fist. Of course, he's actually referring to the ring attached to said fist, but whether or not Takumi understands that probably depends on how informed he is.]

[i_just_wield_it]

That looks suspiciously unlike blessed salt and holy water.

[one_punched]

The hell do you need that stuff for?

[i_just_wield_it]

For the vampires!

[one_punched]

Aw, you don't need to bother with all that crap. Just stake 'em in the heart, maybe cut the head off too if you're feeling thorough. Easy as pie.

[i_just_wield_it]

I'm talking about defenses. We've got civilians here, and I can't guard them while dealing with a whole coven at the same time.

[one_punched]

That's what you're worried about? I already told you, I've got all the gear we'll need.

[i_just_wield_it]

Where is it then? Holy stakes? Garlic? Silver bullets?

Why hello there! Milord Takumi, correct? How do you fare this day?

[i_just_wield_it]

[Hands her the glass of whatever.]

Just Takumi, please. I don't have any kind of noble rank.

[ex_unconventional236]

Ah, thank you! How did you know I liked this type of tea?

Rank has little to do with it, milord. However if it would make you more comfortable, I'll respect your request.

[i_just_wield_it]

It's just a matter of paying attention. Also I'm something of a tea fan myself.

[ex_unconventional236]

I see! You are clearly a very kind and observant young man.

[i_just_wield_it]

I'm glad you think so.

[ex_unconventional236]

So what brings you here today? It's awfully early to be out and about.

[i_just_wield_it]

Just wanted to talk, I guess. There's been so much going on that I don't feel like I get enough chances to really get to know the people around me.

[ex_unconventional236]

That is too true.

Walk with me, then, and enjoy the dawning day.

[i_just_wield_it]

Good idea. I'm something of an early riser myself, but I'm normally too busy to really appreciate mornings.

[ex_unconventional236]

I am as well. Things have been so hectic as of late, I find myself sleeping more than I should... today, however, I feel refreshed and hopeful.

Wh-why are you doing this? Kanon didn't do anything!

[i_just_wield_it]

Two days ago, I would have believed you. Maybe even yesterday. But the evidence is all pointing to you, and I'm not letting any more people die!

[explosionofsound]

[...Tch. Somehow, he's found her out. But she won't give up so easily.]

What are you talking about? Kanon did nothing wrong!

[i_just_wield_it]

It's no good, Mitachi. You may have the others fooled, but I know what you are and what you've done.

[explosionofsound]

--!

...You're no fun.

[i_just_wield_it]

Obviously not. I'll give you one chance to surrender quietly. Will we do this the easy way or the hard way?

[explosionofsound]

[By way of answer, she makes a quick gesture with her right hand, causing a small explosion near Takumi. He'll want to dodge to avoid taking any damage.]

[i_just_wield_it]

[They always choose the hard way. The horrible horrible hard way. Takumi doesn't dodge, he just takes the hit with a grunt as he starts sprinting towards Kanon, attacking with an enormous diagonal swing when he gets close enough. Though there's some blood on his jacket from the explosion, it doesn't really seem to be slowing him down.]

[explosionofsound]

[She panics and begins to run, although not fast enough to avoid a sizeable gash on her shoulder and back.]

Y-you-!

[She jerks her hand in his direction once more, this time aiming a larger explosion at his face.]
