Characters: Flynn Scifo, anyone else.
Where: AQURES IXEN
When: November 6th
Summary: Flynn awakes in the hospital, decrystallized and retaining his memories from his first stint here.
Warning: None so far.


[Had it really been several months since he last remembered? It seemed like only yesterday when he was on the beach in Balicea forced to take a vacation. Wandering about the streets, he wondered if Yuri was all right, or if he somehow came down with the same affliction - at least his body seemed to be okay. But he'd need to get moving around - there was no good time to just sit around and do nothing, and he had several months he had to make up for it. So you may see him wandering about, pondering whether to buy certain foods (don't eat his cooking though) or wandering outside his old home - apparently he had been reassigned, but he was on the lookout for Yuri.]

[Rukia's expression goes flat as she sighs.]

Sometimes that's the only way the cart can be pushed. He's ridiculously stubborn about the strangest things.

[But she was fond of him, she wouldn't deny that. She wouldn't go through so much trouble to draw a moustache on his face if he wasn't worth the effort.]

Nonetheless, I know far less of you than I do of Yuri. What kind of Jobs did you undertake here? What are your goals as a Hero of Light?

[dammit_yuri]

Paladin and Magitek Knight, as far as I can remember. I'm still not very proficient in them and getting used to this world's means of power takes some getting used to.

[he shrugs at the second half of the inquisition.]

As for my goals, I suppose it's to help those in this world as best as I can so we can get home safely.

[damn_juicebox]

[Rukia grins, then chuckles. She's beginning to understand now why Yuri both admires Flynn and grumbles against him. They seem as if they're complete opposites.]

I imagine you're quite gifted at swordplay, then. Perhaps we might spar sometime, once you've had a moment to catch your breath and settle in once more.

[When their food arrives, she picks up the tray and carries it to a table by the window.]

Do you know where you'll be staying yet?

[dammit_yuri]

I wouldn't mind that at all. It would be interesting to see the different styles across the worlds, and who knows what we would be able to learn from each other?

Even though Yuri and I use the same techniques, our execution is fairly different, which brings forth even more different kinds of swordplay techniques.

[grins]

I was thinking of staying here for a while, considering Yuri won't be using his bed. Most likely I'll have to tidy up, however.

[damn_juicebox]

It's not so bad.

[She's seen Yuri's room before. He seems to keep things fairly clean from what she's seen, but maybe she just caught him on a good day. But it's a practical answer. Yuri's bed likely isn't going to be used. Unless Yuffie decides to be weird and take over Yuri's bed too.]

[She perks a little at the mention of techniques, because this is a conversation she can definitely get into.]

His style is flashy, I've noticed. And yet he's quite skilled. Ordinarily I wouldn't approve of anyone letting go of their weapon for an instant, but he seems to possess a surprising degree of control. I think it baffles the enemy, giving him an edge instead of a weakness.

[dammit_yuri]

He certainly marches to the beat of his own drum. I'm halfway convinced he uses so much movement so that his hair flows along with his movements.

[he shrugs, laughing it off.]

[damn_juicebox]

[Rukia stares. Then smirks. Suddenly she's laughing against her fist because it's so true. The man does have very nice hair, she'll give Yuri that. She didn't expect that Flynn would have a sense of humor, the way Yuri described him, so this is a pleasant surprise.]

I suppose we all have our vanities. I do wonder what he uses to make his hair look that good, though.

[She grins, and nods her thanks to the waiter when their food is delivered.]

Are you enlisted with Esdham's military?

[dammit_yuri]

Product. Lots and lots of hair product. I was tidying up his place at some point and it's well hidden. That and maybe he's born with it.

[Maybe it's Maybelline~]

I don't believe so. If I was, I'm not anymore. I'm still not used to being a Hero of Light.

[damn_juicebox]

You can't be serious!

[No please stop. Rukia can't be laughing this much, it's really undignified for someone of her rank and duties. But the thought of Yuri lavishing that much care on his hair for the sake of vanity is too hilarious, and her shoulders are shaking as she chuckles repeatedly into her fist.]

[Give her a moment to control herself. She 'whew's and clears her throat, gulping down some water while trying to rein in her wide smile.]

Yes, well. That does take some adjusting.

[One more clear of the throat. Okay, she's got this.]

But it isn't so complicated. We answer to the needs of the people, dig for what information we can, and rise to fight against anything that threatens this world and ours. You are a capable warrior, I'm told. I'm certain you will perform admirably with the rest of us.

[dammit_yuri]

[it's a good thing Flynn is joking. maybe. Yuri would never forgive him either way.]

No more capable than Yuri. In fact, it falls on all of us to help each other and build up this land, doesn't it?

I look forward to working with you.

[damn_juicebox]

It does.

[She sits back with a satisfied smile, fully agreeing with his ideal. Yuri feels the same way too, she knows, but getting him to say it out loud is like pulling teeth. He'll just snark about how he's not a hero, like the big bag of lameness that he is.]

And I with you. It's good to meet another so dedicated!

[She moves her water aside once their food is brought out to them, and grins at Flynn.]

Once you've settled in, seek me out. I always appreciate a chance to spar, should you feel so inclined.
