Don't you? I mean, they can't force us to fight.

[His eyes gleam, and he watches Adachi carefully. As if expecting something]

[foolreversed]

[he shrugs]

And then what? Just sit around doing nothing?

I mean, don't get me wrong I'd rather be back in jail but I'm here anyway so...

[myriades]

The universe doesn't seem to want to let you do your time, does it? Dojima-san will be mad.

[foolreversed]

[DEEP SIGH gosh you had to mention the D word]

Well, what he doesn't know can't hurt him, haha...

Looks like it doesn't seem to want to leave you alone either, though.

[myriades]

[He sighs, reeling in a little]

Seems not. I'm supposed to be hitting the cram books right now.

[foolreversed]

[oh god. cramming. he sure knows that well.]

Oh boy, that time already huh? Wow, that sort of stuff takes me back.

[to easier, simpler times when that was all he needed to feel pleased with himself]

I think in your case then this is much better though.

[myriades]

[ he makes a small non-commital noise]

I don't mind studying... I don't have much to do back in the city.

[foolreversed]

You had more to do back in that town, huh? Man, ain't that ironic.

[stretching his arms, before resting back on them and looking out at the ocean]

This place is nice though.

[Inaba could have been too if you had just given it a chance, Adachi]

[myriades]

Inaba is nice too.

[Lawl]

Though it IS warmer here.

[foolreversed]

Inaba doesn't have a beach.

[IGNORING ANY POSSIBILITY THAT INABA IS NICE AND HE WAS WRONG TO HATE IT SO MUCH!!]

Warmer and nicer.

[myriades]

[Yu chuckles]

Whatever you say, Adachi-san.

[He says nothing else for awhile, as Yu tended to do. Just watching his bobber... before jerking the rod, reeling in in a rush- and hauling a small fish out of the water.]

I think all the people around have scared off all the fish.

[foolreversed]

[back to tapping on his gem. come onnnnnnn, he wants a weapon already B<]

You sure it's the people that scared them off and not all the stuff that happens around here?

[myriades]

Same difference.

[He unhooks the fish, gives it a look over... and tosses it back. After a moment he puts the rod away with a sigh]

It's something to look into later.

[Quest 128: Save the Fish!

He'll come back to that later. For now he turns, tilting his head as Adachi taps his gem.]

It's really bothering you?

[foolreversed]

No. [starts knocking on it with his knuckles, frowning] ...Okay, maybe.

[myriades]

It's not that hard. You're trying too hard.

[foolreversed]

Oh yeah? Then how do you do it, Mr. Perfect?

[myriades]

Hmm, like this?

[He stands, touches his throat gem- which glows with very dull foggy grey light. He tilts his head back and shit is fucking Utena all over here. Or Sailor Moon or something as he pulls the pale energy out- thank god it stays energy until it's pretty much out though cuz such a long thick weapon would look pretty gross otherwise coming from such a spot.

...though in Adachi's favor, once he has it OUT and it becomes solid he fumbles, almost dropping it like fucking Hanamura on his worst day. Look he's not used to such oddly balanced heavy weapons shut up?]

1/2

[foolreversed]

[Adachi watches initially with wide eyes, feeling both impressed but also quite jealous that Yu was having no difficulty summoning his weapon at all.]

[foolreversed]

[...and then he fumbles and Adachi bursts out laughing.]

[myriades]

[Scowls forever, stabbing the polearm... thing... into the sand]

...

[foolreversed]

[SORRY NOT SORRY even when being less of an asshole than he could be he can't help having some laughs at others' expense, especially yours

But he'll calm himself down shortly, although there's still a laugh to his words once he starts speaking again]

So how'd you even do that? You just concentrate or something?

[myriades]

[He opens his mouth as if to say something... then turns his head away like a scorned cat]

[foolreversed]

[uh oh, he knows that reaction]

Oh come on, don't be such a baby - lighten up a little.

[myriades]

[He huffs, but turns back]

It... kinda feels like when I summon my persona. So maybe start there?

[foolreversed]

Oh... like that?

[crosses his arms again and tilts his head as he thinks]

...So uh, maybe like this then?

[and then he starts... clutching his head and hunching over, eyes shut tight.

...Adachi no.]
