Fifty-Second Explosion

[deusexhormones]

[Voiced]

...Oi, any of Bunny's friends. Rena, porcupine, Shiki you too if you guys didn't notice yet. Usagi Tsukino's staying over at my place for a few days. If she's staying here she probably doesn't want to be bugged but whatever.

You know maybe I should hit up those other ones again... Celes and the othe- oh! Rika! Let's go out and get some lunch later today! You don't got any notable lines anyway so you don't need to practice like the rest of the Brigade, so let's go out this afternoon! Oh and Mitsuru when is my stage gunna be done?

[...Pause, grunt] Oi! Rikku! Now's long enough! Let's make good on out bet! Meet me outside House #10. I'll be waiting this morning to make it snappy!

[Action]

[And true to his word, Haruki has kidnapped Shiki's usual spot of late. Namely, he's going to be on the porch of House #10 all morning reading a book or something. Anyone is free to run into him for whatever reason; housemates, Brigaders, random other people walking down the street... go for it.]

Take care of Rika.

[Voice]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

She's a member of my Brigade.

[...Clearly, this answers everything]

[Voice / Filtered]

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

Yeah.

But we both know there's other things to worry about.

[Voice / Filtered]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

[...Sigh]

No there's not. Rena's a member of my Brigade too. So's Hanyuu.

Rika said you were going to stop Rena if something happens.

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

'Course I am. I can't let idiots like you go and kill her or something.

[Voice / Filtered]

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

...You think I'd kill her?

[Voice / Filtered]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

[Without any hesitation at all, dead-pan:] Yes.

[Voice / Filtered]

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

Why?

[Voice / Filtered]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

'Cus she's got a machete that's about a foot and a half long she carries around and that could probably lop off someone's head if the strength I saw the other day is any indication. And if what I saw months ago was accurate... she might.

That doesn't mean she has to die.

Says the guy that decks people over a joke.

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

It was pornography about my wife.

[Voice / Filtered]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

There wasn't even sex, you idiot. That's not pornography.

[Voice / Filtered]

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

That's not the point. You can't do that and not expect to get punched. Stella or Cloud could've done it too.

[Voice / Filtered]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

Cloud threatened to kill me. I guess that makes you better than him.

[Voice / Filtered]

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

I'm not going to kill someone because they're sick or affected by an experiment.

[Voice / Filtered]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

Yeah and she's a normal girl. One punch from you'd break her face. So I'll do it, duh.

[Voice / Filtered]

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

Have you ever fought someone who's really trying to kill you?

[Voice / Filtered]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

Yes and I got my leg all but ripped apart to prove it. Wanna see the scars, idiot?

[Voice / Filtered]

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

[wasn't expecting that]

That's okay.

[...pause]

Look, just don't get killed. Rika and Hanyuu would be upset.

[Voice / Filtered]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

A victory isn't a victory unless everyone comes out okay! Duh! [/bravado]

[Voice / Filtered]

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

Right.

[Voice / Filtered]

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

...I'll do it. Rena's my friend.
