heavens bbs [video]
Date posted: June 13th, midday
From: Yoon (even though he's holding Ran's phone.)
[The video feed starts on Ran, still very bandaged but clearly able to move on his own power again, unlike at the end of the Black Parade - a full 18 days ago.]
"There, it's turned on now. You're lucky I figured out how to work this thing while you were laid up."
[The voice comes from somewhere 'behind' the microphone. The phone is being handheld too.]
"I'm still not doing it. That was your decision, not mine. "
"Just thank your coworker for helping you back to your temple and be done with it. You owe him that much and it's long overdue with how long you took to heal up. Most pain-in-the-butt god power ever, I swear."
[ Really, it's not Ran's fault that he landed himself with an ability that injures him, and he doesn't hesitate to make his displeasure at the entire situation known, outright glaring at the shinki standing behind the scenes. In the end though, he grits his teeth and averts his eyes, tone curt despite the words themselves.
Yoon = 1, Ran = 0.]
"...Thank you."
[ A short pause, a raised eyebrow. Please don't make him repeat that? ]
"Good. You can have this back now."
[And the feed flickers briefly as the phone is handed back to Ran. Now the top portion changes: ]

Aya, buy a sword, for your own damn sake.
no subject
[ Hey, it's hard to find a good sword for a reasonable price, especially one that will withstand the abuse he'll probably put it through. ]
no subject
[No other context given.]

no subject
I'm talking about my vessel form, of course.
no subject
[ Now is probably not a good time to say that he doesn't recall naming him, but he also doesn't remember being hauled back or anything else in the span of time that he was out. ]
no subject
You don't remember. Of course. You were in and out of consciousness so often I don't know I'm surprised.

I can turn into a bag kind of like the one I came here with. You can pull items out of it, even if they're bigger than the bag.
no subject
[ Wait. ]
How would that even work?
no subject
[ He shrugs. ]
You're asking the walking dead person who can turn into a bag how that works?
no subject
[ Forgive him for a moment while he processes things, trying to recall the kanji. It'd be the onyomi, so that would make it... ]
...Ume? [ Okay, aside from the obvious, there's got to be a reason for why he'd chosen that. It figures that having been down for a while would take a bit to shake off. Ah!
Huh.
He must've been in a sappy mood at the time. Go figure. ]
Okay, that makes sense.
no subject
[And he doesn't know flower language.]
no subject
[ Because repeating it totally makes it make sense. ]
It means pure-hearted and faithful.
[ Definitely in a sappy mood at the time. ]

[...there might have been something shady involved, but...]
no subject
[ At the same time, though... ] How are you with a gun? [ Because he's older than Ran remembers him, which means he's more experienced, so maybe there's the slight possibility that he could prove useful to Ran in more ways than as a coworker and arms dealer. ]
no subject
[Not great. He didn't really spend any of the time between the third Weiss' dissolution and the fourth Weiss' creation practicing things like that. There was still some rust to be shaken off when the Temple of the Underworld came down on his head.
But desperation is the main fuel source of Youji's life, and he's fairly aware of that by now.]
I need some capital to work with first. If you've anything to sell or trade...
no subject
Bones. A shirt and coat that are full of holes because my ribs can't seem to stay inside my body. Other than that, I'd have to look around.
no subject
Bones are like men in a sex scene. Important for verisimilitude, but no one wants to be looking at them.
I might be able to sell something on your behalf. You can owe me a second favor. Or one, even bigger favor.
no subject
[ But as hesitant as he is about being in debt to this man, he'd much prefer not having to deal with bandages on a daily basis.
A long pause while he mulls it over. An irritated sigh, because what choice does he have. ]
... Deal.
no subject
[...he'll attempt it, in Aya's future, but he likes to think he's over that. He was jealous of Aya for keeping himself together, and he still doesn't want to carry the burden of his past, but killing Aya maybe wasn't the right approach.]
Just don't get antsy if the favor doesn't get called up immediately, all right? I'm going to keep it until when I need it, and given everyone surrounding us here, who knows how I'll judge that.
no subject
[ But he's willing to do this, not because he really wants to, but because he needs to. If Yoon isn't around, he needs something he can count on and the only thing he can count on his ability for is to have him bleeding out as a result. ]
Fine, but you may have to remind me of it when that time comes. [ Because he won't go out of his way to remember. ]
no subject
[He smiles humorlessly.]
Not that your conscience isn't overburdened enough, but I only buy from shady people. I can sell a painting in the Near Shore, something that hangs in a bar somewhere. It's close enough to my realm, I think.
no subject
[ Did he seriously say that just now? Did he forget who they are? ]
We are shady people.
Sorry I couldn't help it
[Did he really just hear that right? What kind of shady people? Because there's plenty of people who "follow the rules" and abuse it to the worst of anyone's abilities and there's people who technically break rules in order to achieve some measure of good.
He didn't plan on continuing to eavesdrop on all of Ran's conversations but this one... the guy who helped him haul Ran back to the temple... this he wanted to keep listening to. And now he's glad he did.]
