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.]

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.

[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:

[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:

[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:

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 . . .

Re: MEANWHILE, IN THE ARENA:

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

Yes, English. Japan. . . that country has been almost completely wiped out by the Earl.
