"How have you been? I brought pizza because I was worried you might be hungry."

Phoenix stared at the pizza -- he had no idea what it was, but he was getting the impression it was food, and delicious-smelling food for that matter.

“I have been fine,” he said, not elaborating to Ixion. The other was a strange person, but what could he do about it.

HC mirror

((Actual, cosmetic mirrors are a thing that Phoenix usually doesn’t have. Most of the time he checks his reflection on glass or  extremely shiny metal, and rarely so on an actual glass mirror.

The first time he saw an actual glass mirror large enough to show his whole body was off-world, and he was so fascinated by how clean and clear it was that he spent a few minutes doing poses.))

As it was, Phoenix was already making a mental map of the place, and if they managed to get to a quieter spot, then he would hand it over to her so that she would, at least, know where they have already been and not have to waste time with that. But right now, his main priority was making sure that he and her managed to get out of this place alive.

There were enough guards that even the shots that were the worst aimed would hit one of them somewhere, and Phoenix made sure that he didn't put his back to any of them longer than he had to so that he could take out another guard with a roundhouse kick.

At her call, Phoenix turned his head sharply and noticed her over by the door. He was thinking the exact same thing: it was a huge risk, and it would all be over if they were unable to get through that door. But if they didn't they would get overwhelmed regardless. He gave her a quick nod and headed in her direction.

Once by the door, he focused on the handle. Locked. He would need a few seconds to get through it, but time was something they didn't have an abundance of. "Hana," he hissed, already starting to crack it. "Keep them busy, I need to crack the lock. It's not complicated but it will take me a few seconds."

True to his word, the lock clicked green after a few seconds and the door slid open into a corridor. "Go!" he told her, firing at the nearest guard that had been coming up towards them and entering the corridor.

couple, heart

Couple: Are you annoyed by public displays of affection?

"No, not really." Phoenix shook his head. "It reminds me of what we are fighting to achieve. I don’t mind seeing someone hug their friends or family, or giving them a gentle kiss on the lips or cheek."

((…That question went right over your head.))

"What other kinds of public displays of affection would they be talking about?"

((Nevermind.))

Heart: Talk about your crush

"I… don’t have a crush…?" Phoenix said, tilting his head. "Sakura thinks that Axl and I would make a good pair, but I just think of him as a friend.”

[blue-phoenix-reborn]

"Dad." Her face expressed a familiar determination as she stared at them. "Dad, let me help. I've trained for this, I can't just sit here and not do anything. Please."

His reluctance was clear as he studied Nadya. The other girl tended to hop between her world and her other father’s, and she was quite skilled. But that didn’t mean that he wasn't going to be afraid.

"…Alright. I will let you come with me this one time, as long as you agree to flee the instant that I order you to.” Rather she be where he could keep an eye on her, because he had the strangest feeling that she wouldn’t stay still.

[blue-phoenix-reborn]

Phoenix sighed and leaned back in his chair, adjusting the tie on his suit awkwardly. It was actually quite padded and comfortable, and the atmosphere made him want to relax. He got the feeling that he wouldn't be jumped here.

He knitted his eyebrows as he considered what the other was saying, and stared down at the giant plate of pasta. "I can certainly see the cheese, metaphorically speaking or not..." He muttered, staring at the parmesan. That was parmesan, right? He didn't have enough experience with food in general to tell the different cheeses apart, but he was sure parmesan went on pasta.

"Hana's sister? She does these sort of things frequently?" He could believe it. That girl's grin had been too wide, and it was for that reason that he wasn't even going to touch the pasta; he got the feeling that Ciel, too, would laugh her ass off if she found out what had happened.

"A century? Most Reploids don't even survive to their teens where I come from..." Phoenix whistled quietly at that, not wanting to attract too much attention until the server gave him the second plate. "I've barely got two years under my belt -- couldn't tell you what happened before I was repaired, so I have no idea if I have been on a 'date' or not." He paused for a moment, his expression slightly embarrassed, before continuing. "...Let's just act like ourselves."

A Blind Date

Phoenix gave a slow blink. There were no movies in his time period except approved propaganda films for Elysium, which honestly weren’t entertaining. “That’s… very old,” he had to admit.

He started at being recognized, but brightened at realizing who this was. “Oh, you’re that Axl! I remember that… I was half-asleep as well and wondering how a signal from the multiverse found me.” He ran a hand through his hair, a sheepish smile on his face at having not recognized him at first.

"You too - I don’t really get out too much. Hana is the one person I mainly socialized with, so, erm," he pointed at the single plate of spaghetti, "I’m guessing this is not normal even in this world for a blind date. At least, I hope it’s not." Finally, he managed to get the waiter’s attention, and requested an extra plate. After getting a raised eyebrow, the waiter went off to get one.

"…How does this work?" He was clueless about dates. And socialization in a fancy environment in general. "This is… completely foreign to me."

[blue-phoenix-reborn]

Which was a good thing. If she was any worse than she was now, she would probably get killed. The blue Reploid ducked underneath a shot that was fired in the second room, swing his leg out to catch the guard that he ended up facing to knock him off-balance before he fired directly into his chest where his core would be.

If he had to put his back to someone, it would be an ally. In this case, Hana. They were surrounded, but with their combined knowledge, they were able to fend off the guards enough so that neither of them were hit with anything. "Go!" he told her. "Find an exit or stairwell that doesn't look too crowded, it'll be our best shot!"

Phoenix was more tense and jumpy than he would let himself know, given the situation that they were in. He was genuinely surprised that they had managed to get this far through the Tower without having anybody spot them.

"Geronimo!" ~elder-shrarpshooter

8. A roof4. The military

"Okay," Axl said, from where they’d been cornered on the roof with a bunch of Elysian Pantheons. "Your world seriously sucks."

"That’s putting it mildly," replied Phoenix dryly. He and Axl had a casual friendship going on; the two of them had gotten to know each other better after the failed blind date that Hana’s sister had set them up on, and knew what was at stake to visit each other’s worlds.

"Those things look like Zero," Axl mused as he fired at them. "Geez, how many of them are there?”

"Too many," the blue Reploid grunted as he kicked and snapped another Pantheon’s head off. "And yeah. It’s to remind everyone who owns the city."

Axl’s face was concerned as there was a break in Pantheons - likely because the next battlement had yet to catch up to them - and couldn’t help but ask, “What the hell happened to your world?”

Phoenix stared at the ground; if they could just get down, and into those alleyways, they could get away. The quickest route to do just that was to jump off where they were, and he gestured towards Axl.

"Phoenix?" The other caught his signal and nodded, but the blue Reploid hadn’t answered his question.

"I’ll tell you when we get down there," he said, jumping off with Axl right behind him.

"Geronimo!"

4. A bridge onto a passing train4. The military

"It seems that you are as much of a trouble magnet in your own world as you are with mine," Phoenix said dryly as he and Hana ran from the human military in her own world.

Hana’s face was red. “For once, I didn’t intend to cause this!”

The black-haired Reploid rolled his eyes. “Why do they hate you so much, anyways?”

The girl’s face went dark as the two of them ran towards a bridge over a train line. “I existed. That’s it. Mama made me, and that’s why they want to kill me.”

An odd expression flickered across Phoenix’s face; he was in trouble in Elysium for merely existing. He could empathize with her in this situation. “I know how that feels.”

He saw the passing train long before Hana did, and didn’t even ask for her opinion before he scooped her into his arms and jumped down onto the passing train to aid in their escape. She screamed, but this was old hat for Phoenix; he jumped off of things with Hana all the time, right?

A little something warm for the holidays, my friend~ I also threw in a data chit with Lady and the Tramp on it- it’s an ancient as hell movie, but it really is worth a watch. Merry Christmas!

-Axl

He couldn't help but pull the sweater on immediately, marveling at how warm it was. It was also dark and inconspicuous; perfect for when he needed to stay warm and when he needed to stay in the dark at the same time. He was really glad he had managed to send Axl a little something.

He tilted his head at the data chit, promising himself to watch it as soon as he got the chance.

Later, he would groan at the spaghetti scene, but now he would understand why Axl had made that comment.

Merry Christmas!

She passed the box of mango cupcakes to him and smiled. “Something to enjoy for the holidays, and…”

"I know they’re kali sticks, though made of metal. I hope they serve you well."

"Wow..." He would have to share the cupcakes with the rest of the others, he mused, once he had tasted the frosting on them; these were just amazing. Maybe it was because he didn't eat much.

The weapons, however, he eyed appreciatively, giving them a light swing where they wouldn't hit anything. "I could use these, Hana. Thank you so much."

27, 36

27. How do they relate to their appearance? How do they wear their clothing? Style? Quality?

((Phoenix’s most distinguishing feature are his eyes - their default settings are at two different colors - and one of them is so cheap that it can’t be changed from the default - so he tries to take advantage of that fact since small changes matter a lot. Clothing-wise, his clothes are nothing fancy - being a freedom fighter means that he won’t have a lot to his name. He tries to wear neutral colors that wouldn’t be noticed by a lot of people.))

36. Do they like to suffer? Like to see other people suffering?

((What the heck, this question. In both cases, no. Phoenix does not like to suffer, but he’ll do it for the sake of keeping Elysium and its citizens safe from the government. And no, he does not like to see other people suffer - it truly disturbs him.))

(ask a killer) ♜

♜: Post-kill actions, thoughts, or emotions

"I don’t dwell on the people that I kill, to be honest." Phoenix shrugged. "We’re in a state of war, and while I regret every single person that I have to kill - a life wasted - I don’t let it overtake my mind or fall into fits of depression. In the life I live, it’s kill or be killed for what you believe in. Right now, there is no peaceful way out. If there was, I would gladly take it."
