Comments

week 1, thursday?? sure

[usogi]

[what's up sasuke, hopefully senri isn't here to aggressively try to give you rice balls again

no he's here to give you something else! .... not entirely by choice because when he sees sasuke he's internally like 'oh, it's that guy'

but externally - ]

Oh, hey.

[he'll at least start off not being a rude bitch]

You got a second?

[say no]

[moralmyopia]

[Honestly, he hopes and prays he's the victim during curfew. This would be the last hail for the chariot.]

No.

[But he doesn't walk off, and he doesn't turn his attention away from Senri, so obviously he's fucking with the guy. The only noticeable different thing about him is his left arm has been pulled inside of his shirt to rest, the hand settled at the split of it on the front of his belt and pants.]

What is it?

[usogi]

[sasuke wtf

anyway if senri were braver he would voice the "god i hate you" thought that he definitely has.]

I have a delivery from a g—

Oh right, did you find the guy you were looking for?

[moralmyopia]

[fuck I LAUGHED

His eyes narrow at the drop off and change of subject.] I found him. [Don't talk to Itachi, Senri.] A delivery?

[usogi]

Oh, good. I'm glad.

[HE WAS JUST CURIOUS HE'LL

actually let it go after that really easily. apparently senri only pretends that he can't read an atmosphere sometimes.]

Yeah! A god wants to see you - and I'm playing messenger.

[moralmyopia]

[The drawn brows don't lift; if anything, he seems more suspicious. His mismatched eyes jump across Senri's face, searching.]

I don't have time for games. [Just a warning in case Senri is pulling his leg.] Who?

[usogi]

[this is the tag i wanted to start this pc for

because senri is still unfortunately very normal but his sleight of hand is very good. that's why he's going to make a waving gesture with his wrist and conjure up one really beautiful red rose in his hand.

it's thornless!

he offers it out to sasuke, serious and sincere as anything.]

Beauty.

[moralmyopia]

[Sasuke is now unfortunately very normal, but his ninja training is very good. The stem of the rose splits just barely above Senri's fingers, and it tips over to fall only after it's apparent Sasuke has moved.

The dagger pulled from the back of the obijimi at his waist has been swept across, and he flips it from underhanded to overhanded in motion then surges forward at Senri. There's no true attack. He halts the blade at Senri's neck. The left arm tucked inside his shirt doesn't really move or shift with him like an arm should when fighting; it's as if he doesn't have one there at all.]

Stop playing games.

[usogi]

[oh my fucking god -

SENRI WAS ROASTING SASUKE SO HARD FOR BEING A NINJA BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, SENRI IS NORMAL AND SASUKE IS LIKE THIS. he honestly makes a really embarrassing yelping noise once his brain processes that the flower is on the fucking ground and he might die?]

No games, no games! Put your knife away, that was all I had!!

[THE TERROR IN HIS EYES IS UNFORTUNATELY VERY REAL]

[moralmyopia]

[His gaze is pretty piecing and deadly serious, but surprisingly, he steps back out of Senri's personal space with his arm and dagger still extended until he's far enough to start to lower it.]

Did you look for me just to be a nuisance? Don't you have something better to do with your time?

[usogi]

[oh my god sasuke.

senri SIGHS and actually goes to pick the flower up? he's carefully examining the rose to make sure it's not bruised because SOMEONE decided to be a paranoid piece of shit :'( ]

I was trying to actually be productive.

You know this is an information game, right? Beauty gave me flowers to hand out to people that I think would take them, and they're pretty much an open invitation to meeting with him. He's a chatty god - and I think seeing this rose again would put him in a good mood.

But sure, if you don't want the freebie, it's not my problem.

[moralmyopia]

[Actually, Sasuke wants that, so he quickly side steps in Senri's way, putting his foot down in front of the rose without crushing it. He waves the dagger up to keep Senri back.

SEE, IT'S NICE. Sort of. Maybe.]

Is Beauty your god, or did you just speak to them on your own?

[usogi]

[WHAT THE FUCK SASUKE

senri is so mad he can't just. kick him in the face????? UGH. he's going to keep playing the "i'm not an emo, i'm a ninja" clip for people out of SPITE]

Not telling.

I can't keep doing you favors without anything in return.

[but sasuke's taking the rose?? good enough for senri. it probably counts.]

[moralmyopia]

So you do have brains in there somewhere.

[He's taking the rose, shut up. IT ISN'T BECAUSE YOU GAVE IT TO HIM. IT'S USEFUL.]

What do you want?

[usogi]

[okay but]

If you pull your knife out again, I'm walking. Maybe running while screaming. It's not funny and it doesn't make me want to talk to you.

[THAT'S HIS FIRST CONDITION - but he doesn't think that sasuke's out here to hurt him willy nilly either so.]

And I'm not giving up who my god is no matter what - I don't expect you to either, you know?

[moralmyopia]

[He doesn't exactly put the dagger away, but he does lower his arm to his side. Fine. He can be civil when he needs to be. Sometimes.]

Cunning. [His eyes don't waver from Senri's face.] What do you want in a perfect world, Nito?

[usogi]

[casually having a knife in your hand isn't fucking civil, sasuke]

You literally still haven't told me anything, Uchiha.

[JUST SAYING]

.... but you put the knife down so - I don't know. It's a really complicated thought, and that's why I'm not a god, probably. I've heard a lot of really good arguments... and I can't say which one's the best.

But I want one where everyone has a chance of being happy, and no one has to make some horrible sacrifice to be with who they want to be with.... something like that.

You?

[moralmyopia]

[Tossing the dagger up, Sasuke catches it in the other direction and slides it again behind the belt at his lower belt.]

That world is possible if you believe in one of peace. [He peers uncertainty at Senri a moment.] I want a world where everyone lives together without war and suffering.

How many of the gods have you spoken with?

[1/2]

[usogi]

[senri, internally: is he just showing off his sick knife skillz now god i hate emo ninjas more than normal emos]

Four personally, and I've heard about the rest.

I'm actually looking for someone who's met Indulgence or Ruin directly.

I wouldn't suppose that might be you?

[usogi]

[actually wait - ]

Hold on!

You want a world without war or suffering but you nearly knifed me because I offered you a rose? Champion your own cause! Be the change you want to see!

[moralmyopia]

It may be.

[Insulted, his face darkens. Thankfully, he doesn't pull the dagger back out.] I know what I'm doing. I'm already taking steps to make a world like this. [Ha ha. Yeah...] Whatever it takes. I'm willing to pay the price.

How difficult was it for you to summon the gods not aligned to you?

[usogi]

I'm literally the last person in your way, so don't make me pay a price with you. I'm trying to play the game in a way that no one has to get hurt. If you're really trying to make a world without suffering, try practicing it here.

[and he means that pretty seriously, and he furrows his brow.]

.... depends on the god.

Indulgence is picky, apparently. Even when I tried to meet with them, they ignored me. The others haven't been that hard though.

[moralmyopia]

Then defect to Piety and summon them. It may be the only way you can get an audience.

[don't tell him how to make his perfect world best also, senri!!!]

What did you make an offering with?

[usogi]

[he's tired of sasuke preaching peace with a knife in his hand, he can only take so much assbackwards nonsense in a short time]

I'm not that desperate yet - Indulgence has the second largest following. Even if I can't find a follower, I'm sure I can meet someone who would admit to meeting them. I just want to know what their world looks like.

[anyway - ]

Tell me something worthwhile and I'll give you a hint. Trade or no deal!

[moralmyopia]

Indulgence? A world where everyone gets too much of what they want.

[The deal, though, makes him frown. He is actually too cute of a guy (minus that weird fucking eye) to be frowning and looking serious this much all the time, but alas.]

What do you consider worthwhile?
