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.]

. . . [sits down next to him]

You were as worried as us, huh.

I'm not as close to him as teammates would be, but. . . once my eye activated like that. . .

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

Aa . . . That worried me a lot.

It doesn't really mean "it's dangerous." It did at home, because all I saw were Akuma, and those souls are all aching. I was scared of it being something like that.

But here, there's. . . people like them.

I know that. He'd still be Fang even if it were like that . . . But seeing your eye go nuts when Fang had never triggered it before. That was kind of scary.

Re: Waking up~

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

... Yeah.

I was scared he was going to disappear.

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

Yeah . . . I was really scared when we met Sparta first. He didn't recognize anyone.

[leans a little]

With a completely different soul, it's no wonder.

He's getting filled in pretty quick now though.

[is shaking a tad, hasn't seemed to notice]

Like a new teammate, huh.

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

Yeah. . . . You okay?

Re: Waking up~

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

Eh? I'm fine. Everything's fine.

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

You're shaking.

Re: Waking up~

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

I'm -

[tenses his posture, turning a little red]

I'm just a little tired. What about you guys?

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

Relieved. [and tired and hungry but those are UNIMPORTANT DETAILS clearly] You sure you're alright?

Re: Waking up~

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

I'm sure. You all have a lot to take care of now, don't you? I'm glad you're not hurt.

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

Yeah . . . I guess we do.

[\o/ god why not. leans over to hug him]

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

[\o/ WHAT. Freezes up briefly, startled]

Allen?

Re: Waking up~

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

[huggggsqueeze]

Hearts are never safe either.

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

. . . [l-leans against him ._.]

It was . . . It was fine. There was only one bad area. We backed out of there pretty fast.

Re: Waking up~

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

[holds the back of his head, a little protective]

. . . Good. I'm glad. And it sounds like it was the right thing to do. You really saved them both.

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

[thunks his forehead on Allen's shoulder]

I knew it going in. We didn't want to change anything.

Having a directive is less scary than Persona's games, but the stakes are so much higher. It still feels so fragile in those places.

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

It definitely is. Wish lost a memory he'd earned after someone fucked up in his heart.
