Week 0, Monday
WHICH IS WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE AS WELL BECAUSE KANDA SUCKS... but at least she hasn't done anything to make him want to leave if she gets close, so she can find him sitting out by the water, meditating quietly. If she approaches, she'll see the number 2 on his chest through his clothes.
Also his hair is kind of stiff. Why.]
no subject
but first we recreate that one scene in dgm where lenalee meditates with kanda. aqua seats herself quietly albeit a respectful distance away from him. (since she doesn't actually really know him like lenalee does.)
and!! a pretty decent amount of time passes, before she finally speaks up. ]
...It's a nice spot.
[ what did he do to his hair... did he get his head dunked in a barrel of old grape juice ]
no subject
No he just washed his hair with soap. He's too nerfed to fix it :(
He doesn't seem to mind her company, though; actually, though it's impossible to tell with the Ice Queen over here, this elevates his opinion of her. People who can be calm and quiet...]
It's quieter than downstream.
[Where presumably people are bathing or. Idk. Catching leeches. Filling buckets for shenanigans.]
no subject
also i hope kanda and ashlyn are besties... their mutual aversion to noise...
she smiles a little. ]
...I don't know that anywhere completely silent exists, here.
[ even empty buildings are always carrying strange noises at any given hour. ]
Do you find it helps to be alone...?
[ she can't exactly relate, but she tries to understand anyway. ]
no subject
He glances at her.]
Helps what? [The answer is probably the same regardless, but he's not sure if she means meditating specifically, or just. In general in life]
no subject
Keep your mind clear. [ she does mean the meditation. she's probably done plenty herself before, jedi expy that she is. ] You're a swordsman, aren't you?
no subject
But, ah. He nods.]
Yes. [In answer to both her questions]
no subject
May your heart stay unclouded as well. ...It seems we'll be here for awhile.
[ they'll need their wits about them. she doesn't have to loiter around him too long if it seems like there isn't really anything he wants to say to her, but she does want to at least properly introduce herself. ]
—Ah, I don't think I caught your name last time. I'm Aqua. May I ask yours?
[ (she probably already knows, she's been to the bulletin board a few times. but... she will be polite.) ]
no subject
Kanda. [...] I heard they said two months.
no subject
Two months... I guess it isn't the longest amount of time to wait.
[ some ink appears on her arms, forming over her sleeves: There's no way back.
she ignores it. ]
...Not the longest amount of time to break a complex spell, either, but we'll have to manage.
no subject
Kanda also ignores her ink, beyond a brief glance when it appears. Not important!! What's important is:]
You know spellwork?
no subject
[ nerfed... ]
A fighter as well, if you'd ever like to spar. I'd have to get my hands on a suitable weapon first, though.
[ sparring cr with pixi... 2!!!!!! ]
no subject
He thinks for a moment.]
Can you fight hand-to-hand?
no subject
I don't favor it, but I could use the practice.
[ especially in a place like this. ]
no subject
Either one is fine.
[She has permission to find him if she wants to spar... congrats aqua!!!]
no subject
All right. Until I can find something else to use, hand-to-hand it is.
When do we start?
[ we can handwave whatever ofc, YAY CONGRATS ME!!!!! ]
no subject
[So he will be here!! AND YEAH WE CAN HANDWAVE HEHE frees us from this thread so we have more strength to beat up yuul]
