[ He swallows his food, and kind of leans onto the counter, lazily reaching out for your hand. ]

There's a lot...

[ The first thing he tells you is the fall of Godhand Natalie Rukia at the hands of Hikaru. He never quite told you about the move she made during his walk. ]

[riskythunder]

[Oho, listening to that intently.

After you're done:]

What a bitch.

[He doesn't need to pretend to respect her now, or be nice.]

[ktotheatothez]

Well, she brought it on herself, really. I was only ever mad because she disrespected uncle Pao, so much so that he pulled rank on her.

[ If he's scooted closer, well, that's because he probably wants your arm around him while he feeds you. ]

[riskythunder]

[Welp. He's okay with this.]

That's the thing, though: you don't DO disrespect in Zangyaku. She was a walking blight on our conspiracy, from what you've been telling me.

[ktotheatothez]

And on the Mani, and by extension, the Brotherhood... So I suppose I'm better with the fact that she got her ass handed to her by Aniki. Doesn't change the fact that I wish she had been better than all that.

[ Snuggly Kaz is Snuggly. ]

[riskythunder]

Yeah... it's never nice when a Keeper loses it.

[Some of them become Slashers. So.]

[ktotheatothez]

Lost it is mild. Even Oswald wanted to kick her ass. Aniki used the Wings. But yeah, she needs to take a fucking break. Like, a long one.

[riskythunder]

Or she needs to not be a hunter.

[Shaking his head.]

The Vigil doesn't need somebody who can't take it, or comes into the Vigil for the wrong reasons.

[ktotheatothez]

I don't know if she'd be able to live outside of the Vigil. But yeah, maybe she needs to live a life outside of it. She really...

[ He drops a quick kiss on your cheek and snags a couple of sodas for the both of you. ]

She really reminds me of me, when I thought that being a Hunter with a legacy was the worst. Now... Now I think of those legacies as something to live for.

[ He's threading his fingers in the spaces between yours now. ]

You're something to live for, now more than ever.

[riskythunder]

[Smiling at that, and squeezing your hands.]

I'm not too hot at the idea of you comparing yourself to somebody that the Wolf wanted to kill seven days to Sunday, but... I'll take your word for it.
