week 1, friday, post investigation

[doublesmall]

[they already met in the park once this week so AS TEMPTED AS I AM to do skateboarding, chuuya's going to find shinssin wherever he's grabbing a bite and just. go ahead and take a seat at the same table. I haven't picked a specific outfit but just know he's finally had to succumb to sheep heavenly's Aesthetic after the ikea incident messed up his clothes...

chuuya props his elbow on the table and his chin in his palm, studying him for just a second before he finally comes right out with it.]

Hey. You're not going to do anything stupid this time, right?

[sure did take him a week to say anything about that call-out last saturday, but here we are.]

What, so you just wanted to see what would happen...?

[that gets a disbelieving look, a huffed laugh as he shakes his head.]

Well, that's one way to play it, I guess.

What is it you don't like? The whole concept, or?

1/2

[shinssin]

Well, it's not like I hate the format? A normal Grail war is a bit like that.

[shinssin]

[ With a smile on his face, he crushes his empty soda cup in his hands. ]

I just don't like that it killed Maya.

[doublesmall]

That kid...?

[the answer catches him a little off guard. chuuya wouldn't have expected him to care that much-- it sucked that she had to die, but it's how the rules work, right? sometimes bad things just happen to decent people.

sometimes someone's got to be the bad thing.]

Mm. I guess it's pretty close to how things are in life, to have innocent people pulled into this kind of thing-

But it'd probably be better if they weren't here.

[shinssin]

[ chuuya won't understand. assassin doesn't expect him to. bad things happen to decent people and sometimes he's the bad thing but that doesn't mean losing them doesn't hurt.

this is why he didn't want to get too close. ]

Yeah. It's too bad.

But that's why I'll kill the Reapers.
