Heaven's BBS | Video | Calling You Out

[lionhearrt]

 From: Ra
Date: June 21st 

[ Sand. Ocean. Sky. Sand. The device is thrown on a bank recording a blaze of fire and at its center stands Mikoto. He's grinning, eyes bright with anticipation as an amoeba-like ayakashi charges in. The Red King stares down his opponent and smirks when it charges. He breathes in, compressing his powers, and with a small grunt releases an explosion of red that erupts like a dormant volcano driving away the creature. Mikoto stands on melted sand watching it flee as flames cover him like a second skin. Beneath him, molten sand begins to cool into glass that reflects the sun. Mikoto turns then, red eyes staring into the camera. He smiles, a thought sliding into place. ]

Njord

Freyja

Inanna

We need to talk.

[ The steps forward but stops when a secondary thought slips in undetected and on a whim -- ]

Guan Yu, you too.


[ooc: he's calling out the gods of his men, plus the blue. ]

Comments

[lionhearrt]

[ Rather than answer, Mikoto scrolls through the menu and a few moments later his coordinates should pop up on Yata's device before he promptly ends the call. He's not in the mood to deal with his over-active vanguard over a network anyone can monitor. ]

aaaand Action...

[thevanguard]

[ Well, that was abrupt. What the hell. Anyway, he stares at the coordinates for a long moment before getting to his feet and grabbing his skateboard. Because of course he's going. It's not like he can ignore an invitation (challenge?) like that.

After letting Nami know he's going out and making sure she didn't mind, he hops on his board and navigates to where his watch is pinpointing those coordinates, looking around for why he'd been summoned here. ]

[lionhearrt]

[ Mikoto is at the beach, though no longer standing on the circle of glass. Rather, he's under a tree sitting on a bench. He leans against the wooden frame, feet spread out, as smoke lazily drifts around him. ]

[thevanguard]

[ The skateboard skids to a stop in front of the bench, sending up a shower of fiery sparks around him as Yata stares at the man sprawled on the bench. ]

I'm here. [ In case you slept through that part. ] What do you want with my god?

[lionhearrt]

[ A lazy drag of his cigarette follows those words, followed by a stream of smoke. A moment's silence. And finally: ]

How does she treat you?

[ Your god. ]

[thevanguard]

[ That's not at all what Yata expected and for a moment he almost stumbles, balance wobbling as he does a double-take at this guy.

Why are you so confusing, dude? ]

What?

[ What does that have to do with anything> ]

[lionhearrt]

[ It's his specialty.

He doesn't elaborate. Simply waits. ]

[thevanguard]

[ Oh my god.

You're so aggravating.

Has anyone told you how aggravating you are?

Yata can play this game too, you know.

...

.......

Twitch.

Yata is very bad at this game.

He lasts for all of like twenty-five seconds until he just pretty much explodes. ]

WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING?? You're weird, you're really weird. Are you creeping on my god? HUH?

1/2

[lionhearrt]

[ Mikoto looks off to the side for a moment, hiding the smile that's threatening to tug at his lips behind his cigarette. It wouldn't do to rile him up anymore. He might blow a fuse. ]

2/2

[lionhearrt]

[ It takes him a moment to collect himself before he's lowering the cigarette, his expression the same as before. ]

I don't care about your god.

i adore you XD

[thevanguard]

[ Are you... is this guy laughing at him? If it were possible for smoke to start spilling from Yata's ears, it might just start happening right here and now. That can't happen, right? Please tell him that's not gonna happen, the fire is already weird enough. The twitch of the man's lips around the cigarette is still pretty telling and Yata's gaze narrows as he revs up for the next round of temper.

Only to be stalled in his tracks by that declaration.

Maybe one day this guy will start making sense, but Yata is definitely not gonna try holding his breath for it. ]

But you're the one that called her out!

omg poor yata! /just laughing at him/

[lionhearrt]

[ A look. He called her out... ]

And you came.

[ In her stead. Connect the dots. ]

FACEPALM.

[thevanguard]

What does that....?!

[ Oh. Oh.

Yata blinks, because yeah it might take him a while, but he'll get there eventually. Maybe with a little handholding. Not literally, please don't be a creeper like Niles, he can only take so many of those.

....which is also why his next response is a bewildered, ] Are you creeping on me?

1/3

[lionhearrt]

[ ..... ? ]

2/3

[lionhearrt]

[ Am amused smile. Really, Yata? ]

3/3

[lionhearrt]

Can't say you're my type.

I love that he just made him make that face

[thevanguard]

Well, good! [ He thinks. That's good, right? ] Because this place has enough creepers already. But that still doesn't... You wanted me to come here? Why didn't you just say that in the first place? Any why are you asking questions about my god if you don't care anyway?

[ Look, he's more the straight-forward type. All this dancing around what you really want just makes his head hurt. ]

I can't believe he made him make that face orz

[lionhearrt]

[ Look. If he could tell you straight out he would, but then you'd turn into an ayakashi and your god would get mad at him and really he doesn't need another Seri on his case. ]

You like your god.

[ A statement. ]

looks innocent?

[thevanguard]

[ Look, you're really not helping your 'I am not a creeper' argument here with statements like that.

Yata can only get flustered and sputter for a moment. ]

Well, she's my god!

[ He's not sure what you're implying here, but he's really hoping that's not what it sounded like. ]

/snickers

[lionhearrt]

[ A very Misaki reaction. Mikoto is amused. But he also knows his vanguard's head is mush when it comes to women so he'll hold your hand and walk you through this - see how considerate he is to blushing maidens? ]

Does she treat you well?

[thevanguard]

[ That stops him short, confused and surprised, embarrassment banished for the moment by the unexpected question. ]

I... yes? I guess?

[ He hadn't actually stopped to think about it before. Was that important? She could put on more clothes, but in general? She seemed alright. ]

[lionhearrt]

[ And that's enough of an answer for him. Misaki didn't filter his words. ]

Hmmn.

[ He stretches, smoothing out a kink in his shoulder. Maybe he could get a meal from Izumo before taking a nap. A drink too. He flicks his cigarette on the ground, crushing it as he lights up another with a flick of his finger, ignoring the other in favor of food and sleep. He pockets his hands, and turns to head out. Maybe he could crash at Izumo's bar. He didn't really feel like walking all the way back to HOMRA right now. ]

[thevanguard]

[ For a moment, Yata can only gape at him as he turns to leave without explaining anything. He can't really be just walking away, right? After all this?

....No, he's definitely just. Walking away. ]

Oi!

[ Once again, Yata is stuck chasing after him in irritation and confusion, one finger jabbing in his direction in utter bewilderment. ]

What the hell? What is all this about? That's all you wanted?

[lionhearrt]

[ He's stopped, jabbed with a finger and through it all Mikoto lets him. ]

That's all.

[thevanguard]

[ Yata narrows his gaze at him, because that barely answers anything. ]

Why?

[ Which is blunt to perhaps the point of rudeness, but this guy had been the one to start it all first, after all. ]
