( ･⊝･∞) || Her eyes are gleaming as he lowers the hook -- how cool! How tough! And that cork is kind of cute! Hiyoko grabs the metal curve firmly, wearing a face made for the most determined of shounen heroes. “Likewise!”

   “It looks like you take good care of it, Sir Crocodile. Where’d you find a big hook like this? Do you think if I got my arm gnawed off I could wear one too? Or maybe I’d be better off with a war hammer or a double-headed axe...”

   The girl deliberates with all the casual ease of a teen on her way to pick out a new outfit...

“Which is the reason they made me one.” He gives a curt nod, a small smile appearing behind his hand at the recognition. Well, he was a Warlord, that is, until they revoked his title, but she doesn’t need to know about that.

His eyes glance down at her hand, pausing a moment as they narrow. ‘She’s nothing but an underling,’ he thinks to himself, but who knew. Maybe being on good terms wouldn’t be awful. His hook reaches down to shake her outstretched hand, letting out a small snort at that. 

“Charmed.”

( ･⊝･∞) || So this is a prison island! She thought so!

   Ill-informed assumptions aside, this guy really does remind her of Sakura despite being an inky black instead of gleaming white. Talking to him makes her a little homesick, but a bit happy, too! Hiyoko Tosaka is the unrecognized champ of dealing with prickly individuals. 

   “Bad luck? How ridiculous! I have a good friend back home who’s all black -- real stand-up, dependable guy! That bad luck business sounds like outdated mumbo-jumbo to me!”

   Never mind that her ‘good friend’ is the bird-ified version of Death itself... 

   “You might not be the last, but you’re the first -- and that counts for something, I think!”

   “So, what does an angel do for fun?”

【 ➵ 】 Her reaction… definitely takes him by surprise. Enough so that the sneer on his face drops a few degrees, settling instead into a frown, and his feather bunch a little. Perhaps he wasn’t expecting her to be barely even ruffled. Most people would be put off by his thinly veiled animosity and turn away, back off. She presses closer. Odd.

He’s not sure how he feels about it- so instead, Pitch shifts his weight to another foot and crosses his arms over his chest, turned slightly away from her, adopting an unreadble expression. As she speaks, he gives her a look- up and down, but his expression betrays nothing. He snorts again, a darkly amused noise.  

“I’m pretty sure you and everybody else here is looking for a way home,” he responds, but there’s no real malice or disdain in it. He shrugs nonchalantly. “And I doubt I’m too lucky. All black and all that. Don’t you humans believe that black things bring bad luck or something like that?” Or was that cats. Pitch always had trouble keeping up with humans ways and beliefs. Most of them were stupid anyways. 

“This city is pretty weird. All sort of creatures and beings here. Doubt I’ll be the last angel you meet around here.”

( ･⊝･∞) ||  “Oh nooooo!” Hiyoko groans, keeling over onto the grassy ground, “What will mom and dad think of their well-raised girl? I really have become a criminal on a prison island!” She shakes her head in despair, shamed! Hungry and shamed! Now she’ll have to find yet another source of food... (Or a job, Hiyoko)

   But the strange girl carries on and like a spring Hiyoko catapults herself off the ground and onto her feet, stomach yowling like an angry monkey in acknowledgement. 

   “A-A restaurant? Could we really go!? I promise I’ll never eat another squirrel again unless I really have to! Do they have udon!?”

Lunch? Did she hear that correctly? What a strange girl. Not to mention… “…Hunting in the park is against the rules,” she told her bluntly. Though on second thought, Echo didn’t know if there was a regulation like that here with the city chaotic as it is. All the same, she guessed that park visitors might find the idea unpleasant. 

“No…I am journaling.” Echo held up the notebook. If one were to take a closer glance, it would read more like an objective log of happenings than a personal diary. She was unused to expressing her emotions, but learning to. That was why she had some difficulty expressing her feelings towards the poor squirrels now. “Echo thinks that hunting squirrels is… It’s just that… Instead of hunting squirrels… why don’t you come with me to a restaurant.”

[berserkertype]

( ･⊝･∞) || “The White Warlocks!” She parrots, mostly out of curiosity. She’s heard a lot about Wallensteins and Trees of Blight, but never these shady folks. Anghel must have found a new enemy to fight!

   Despite the...unusual nature of almost everything that comes out of his mouth, Hiyoko always finds it in herself to sit herself down and hear him out. After all, wherever he goes, unusual things always follow. “Oh, it’s not so bad,” She attempts to encourage him, strange though his appearance is, “I’m sure it’s a little weird, and you might feel like a newborn baby giraffe, but you look great! Check out that healthy glow!” Oddly placed bandages aside...

   “And don’t worry, I’ll protect you too! ...But I don’t think anyone’s out to get us right now, Anghel. I think they’d rather be dancing, don’t you?”

“Ihhdel Bwuh–”

Anghel stopped talking as she squished his face, his cheeks flaring up bright pink. His arms flailed around aimlessly until she sat up, currently without wings to flap attached to them. He scrambled up to meet her, resting on his knees.

“I-I… it is the power of the White Warlocks, Edel Blau!” 

“I have been made to mimic your form, in this Accursed Metropolis. But I am able to reclaim my original body upon command… normally. This Eve of Gathering Stars, however, bears a heavy curse. I cannot access my Transfiguratoris Avis… without my wings, I am trapped within this Flesh Prison. N-Not that your own is… it is a suitable form for you,” nice save, “but it is far from befitting of my own soul.”

“Fear not, however – I am unharmed. My senses have merely been siphoned here… but my will has not. I shall protect you with my life, as we fight alongside each other!”

[berserkertype]

( ･⊝･∞) || For a second she feels like she’s standing before the tortured anti-hero in a hit anime series. What a dramatic jacket slinging! But the climax of the moment is marred by the fellow’s forlorn face. Hiyoko cocks her head, perplexed.

   “Jeez fella, don’t you think you should smile when someone does hard labor for you?”

   That came out a bit wrong.

   “I mean, I had to survive on earthworms and millet for years, but I always thanked Mrs. Kawara for feeding me. You get it?” She shuffles -- who wouldn’t enjoy a nice warm pelt on a cold day? He’d basically given her the knitted equivalent, so it was a good exchange, right?

   “But if it makes you wanna barf I guess I could try to come up with a better present... Maybe some lion’s claws or the head of a basilisk?” Those aren’t real, Hiyoko... “It’s so hard to shop for gifts!”

Sekine was quite sure he had just heard something ridiculous and he couldn’t help but stare. Should he say something? It was a brutal imagery. The blood, the lifeless wolf on her arms, the knife digging down to skin… Looking at it in the light of her words he suddenly felt ill twinge on his stomach.

He was out of options though. She was clearly dead-set on him having it and considering this was someone that had skinned a wolf… Well, he wasn’t thinking she’d react violently or anyting but at very least she’d have to be headstrong to be able to do something like that.  

“ Ugh. “ 

“ Fine. I’ll take it. “

He grabbed pelt avoiding to actually giving any eye contact and threw it onto his back in a dramatical arch. Kind of like a scene from a movie where the character was leaving for a trip that might be his last.

“ Awful. “ Was only thing Sekine could think though.

“ Thank you “, he muttered with slightly glum face.

[berserkertype]

( ･⊝･∞) || “Mister Nanakiiiiii!” 

   She whines, snuffling, overcome by his quiet patience and kindness! He might be a bit absent-minded on occasion, but there’s no one she’d rather be with in a crisis. Thank goodness for responsible teachers!

   His calm explanation soothes her nerves and strengthens her warrior’s heart. Hiyoko takes a deep breath. “Okay, but try not to get alarmed and bonk your head on the ceiling, sir! Then we might actually be in trouble... I don’t even know where to find an infirmary!” 

   Calm down, Hiyoko... “But you’re right. The first thing to do is look around and assess the situation, right? If we’re together, I know we can do it!”

what may come | intro

He probably wouldn’t taste well, either way, was she to try to eat him. Not that Kazuaki ever entertained the thought of his own taste to begin with…

Who could blame them for showing uncharacteristical reactions, though? Being thrown into a new world without a warning, without any guidelines how to manage and without knowing the reason behind it all would shake anybirdie. Fortuna must have blessed Kazuaki along his way to wherever he was, granting him with the sight of his favorite student so soon. The smile on his face was slightly wider than usual.

“I am really happy you seem to be well, Tosaka” Hm, she posed a good question. “It does not seem like an island to me, actually. More like some kind of underground city? The structure is very tough to put a wing on, I can only tell wherever we are, it is artificial.”

“Anyways, I appreciate you worry about me, but there really is no need to. I just got a bit tired after walking around this place so much, is all - besides with you here now, everything looks a bit brighter already”, the quail hummed, finally shifting into a sitting position. “It appears you did not arrive here way sooner than I did, maybe we should look around together a little?”

[berserkertype]

( ･⊝･∞) || She’s too young to drink, but she is not too young for sneaking bar peanuts off the sticky tables! The last little bar she’d frequented was no good -- the owner caught on and chased her away with a broomstick, so, unless she could drudge up the funds to buy some novelty glasses or a mysterious mask, she was stuck looking for another source of peanuts!

   But Hiyoko’s plan will have to wait; a familiar face appears in front of the pub. “Ah! Chicken-leg man! Or was it turkey...?” His friendly grin makes her smile, too, but it doesn’t last for long. Rather, his doesn’t. “That’s okay, I forgot yours too.” She laughs.

   At his inquiry, she scuffs the ground with her dirty shoes. “I’ve been better! I don’t quite like this whole scavenging business, but, well, a girl’s gotta get her peanuts somehow!” (Good luck deciphering that one, Darian)

   “How are you? Looking surly as ever, I see -- you should smile more!”

@berserkertype

{♤}  The bar is crowded, loud and the smell of alcohol is in the air. Nothing of that would bother Frey, usually. But being all alone with his drink, has him in a gloomy mood. And as he starts feeling more and more bitter, he slams his drink on the table, gets up and leaves for fresh air.

Outside of the bar, Frey meets a familiar face. A welcome change.

“Hey, it’s the chicken-leg girl.” For a moment, Frey grins broadly over the given nickname. Then, he leans against the wall, casually stuffing his hands into the pocket of his coat and his facial features turn serious again. 

“I’m sorry, I just forgot your name. How’ve you been? Escaping the crowd again?”

[berserkertype]

( ･⊝･∞) || “Are you okay, little kitsune?”

   The girl kneels before the crying fox. Poor lil guy! She’d sooner have him for lunch than comfort him, but he can talk, and she thinks it’d probably be bad luck to eat a kitsune... If anything, the indigestion would be legendary. 

   And besides, if she helps him, maybe he’ll give her some kind of fantastic reward! Wasn’t that how the legends went? 

   “Can you tell me where your home is? I’ll be your bodyguard and escort you there -- your own personal yojimbo!” She flexes for emphasis and pats her bulging bicep. It’s a little cramped in that schoolgirl outfit.

“Wha..”

Fox frantically looks around as if he’s seen a ghost, this wasn’t the school playground he was playing hide and seek in. He was in some large city that didn’t look familiar at all with weird alien-people that looked like nothing he’s seen before..

Tears up start to form up in his eyes and roll down his cheeks, he was scared and lost.

“W- where am I?!”

“I don’t wanna play this game anymore I wanna go home..!!”

MINI EVENT GO!! Prodegression!! [hatoful spoilers ahead]

Inexplicable timey things have catapulted Hiyoko’s consciousness into her future (one of her futures, at least), whereupon she is wholeheartedly, utterly, 100% DEAD.

Clicc that LIKE to interact with a living girl who is convinced she’s not of the living. Uncapped for now! You might experience:

Misguided ghostly antics

Ill-founded afterlife shenanigans

Burial worries and possible corpse-smell anxieties 

Emotional caterwauling

回

回 = patching a wound .

( ･⊝･∞) || He is a very particular man. It seems he can’t abide by certain things, and must either fix them immediately or suffer in silence. For instance, it’s not the fact that Hiyoko is limping that subtly offends him, it’s the sound her shoes make as they scuff the pavement that must be rectified. He lets her know in so many words, although she doesn’t really understand it. 

   “I fell out of a tree trying to catch a possum -- these things happen.” She explains nonchalantly as her knee oozes blood, “I’ll just lick my wounds and be struttin’ fancy free in no time!” 

   Apparently she means this literally. Hiyoko promptly tucks her leg into her chest and attempts to do just that! She misses what is probably a look of utter incredulity on Sekine’s face, but she pauses when he stops her, holding a bandage.

   Oh... It’s nice to be taken care of, isn’t it...?

   “I-- I don’t need it, mister. Saliva promotes coagulation in the blood, so it’s just as good as a band-aid! That’s why dogs and cats and apes do it too!” Somehow, her blood speckled smile isn’t entirely convincing!

[berserkertype]

( ･⊝･∞) || Oh, so they weren’t going on a journey? Maybe the journey will come later. Hiyoko nods enthusiastically, thick bramble of hair swaying about her face. “Right, right! First things first!”

   The girl rubs at her own chin. What are her greatest talents? She’d never really considered such a thing, figuring she’d have plenty of time to figure it out. After all, she’d never really wanted for food or shelter, until now.

   “I’m pretty good at helping out, I suppose...” She begins, “I can lift heavy things and fight bad guys, I’m a pretty good hunter-gatherer, and, like any self-respecting high school student, I wield a halberd or a war-axe with deadly skill and can even make my enemy turn tail and dishonor their clan on the field of battle...!”

   “I could probably be an alright barista, too, but that’s getting a little complicated.”

   Little schoolgirl things.

Not accepting the money but at the very least, accepting the idea of finding work was a good enough compromise for Eiji. Dropping the coins back in his pocket for a later day, he’d give Hiyoko an eager nod of the head before tapping his open palm with his fist. 

“ Alright! First, we should see what you’re able to do. What you’re comfortable with doing, what particular skills you have and see if anyone needs those.. “ He’d say curiously as he rubbed his chin. They looked a bit young so their skill repertoire probably wasn’t the biggest but maybe they’d surprise him. 

“ So! What’re you good at doing? “

[berserkertype]

( ･⊝･∞) || “I see.” She remarks appreciatively, “You’re a man of your word!” He seems like a bit of a severe type, but he sure knows how to pick out a nice sweater! Training be damned!

   Yes, he must be a little severe, especially if he’s going about refusing warm pelts while he shivers like a baby bird. The poor fella -- maybe he has a warrior’s pride after all, but he definitely doesn’t have a warrior’s body, and there’s no reason to stay cold if one can help it! (hypocrite...)

   “Expensive? I don’t know about that... I mean, I made it myself,” She wiggles the wolfskin for emphasis, “So I can always make another one! It’s a little tough to skin a whole wolf with just a wooden knife, but it’s good practice!”

   “Besides, it’ll make you look at least. . . 50% tougher!”

   Or 50% more ridiculous, but Hiyoko is a fan of practicality over aesthetic.

“ …bold? “

“ Well-made or not I did say you can, I’m not going to eat my words now. “

What kind of person would he be if he were to do that. The shrill screech of the teeth had ceased as well, no more cold shivers running along his back either… She looked whole a lot cozier now, there was no reason to change that.

It wasn’t like he was going to wear that anyway. 

A confused frown fell on his face as the girl suddenly pulls out the pelt. She’s offering it for him? He wasn’t sure if he wanted to wear something like that. Frankly speaking it was kind of tacky. It’d look awful on him wouldn’t it? But how to go about declining though…

He was shivering a little but that kind of thing would make people look at him weirdly. 

“ Huh? “

“ …uh, I’m not particularly in the need of it, I think…  That looks more expensive than the jumper. “
