Who: Hydra, Ikki, Allen, ANY
Where: The Arena
When: Day 98, evening
What: When we last left our intrepid heroes...

[In the arena, there's some decent quality meat burning as a gift to two particular Judges, a comatose member of Hydra and a few guards with torches... and not a whole lot else to explain what's going on.

Well the real interesting part is going on a little deeper anyway.]

[It's not as if she's eating any herself.]

. . . mmm. I wouldn't want Lacerta to get in trouble, because of me. Or Pavo, either.

Allen mentioned salt, before? We've never had any of that. Or if there are seedlings you can spare, from your garden. It doesn't have to be much.

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

Aah - some salt then.

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

That's fine.

I'll be right back . . . can you keep these cooking?

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

I'll come by Pavo after he's woken up. --Sure.

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[Bundles up the skin and scraps, and a portion of the meat, and heads in the direction of the dorms.]

Come tomorrow. We should all sleep tonight.

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

... Sure.

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

[It's not long at all before she's back, hands washed and with water and a wet cloth to clean up the stone.]

No more changes?

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

[took the steaks off when they were done, in a pile to the side]

No, no changes.

How's your arm?

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[Puts another two strips on.]

Ahh . . . I cleaned it off when I was getting the water—it's fine.

[. . . her eyes, too, are red again.]

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

That's good. Everyone's always a little banged up, but sometimes stuff like that can be a real pain.

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

Is Allen's eye okay? It's been open like that for a while, now.

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

Ah, yeah. Don't worry about it, I'm used to it now.

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

It doesn't get dry?

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

Well, I can still blink.

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

[Nods.]

There's no magic, in my memories. Just like there's no electricity, in Kenshin's.

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

Really? Well... it's not so common. Normal people have never seen things like my eye or my hand.

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

. . . I don't think I get to be called normal, where I'm from. Even if things . . . don't seem so different here.

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

Does Allen remember when he's from?

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

Well, instead of "normal," how about "not involved in the war"...

When? The date? It's the 1800's.

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

That far . . .

. . . I don't think I could be involved in Allen's war.

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

. . . You're from a different point? I mean - ah, I shouldn't be surprised, Jim has stuff like spaceships. . .

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

Allen's war would need to last two hundred years. And reach Japan, too.

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

. . .Y-you're from Japan?

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

I mean. . .

two hundred years and Japan. . . how is that . . .

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

'Allen' . . . it's English, isn't it? Though that could be a lot of countries . . .
