You really do sound just like her. So, you hellbent on walking until you pass out and I'll have to carry to you to the dorms, or are you going to go there by yourself? I don't care who it happens to, you need rest after whatever caused that.
[spoiler]No worries.[/spoiler]

"I'm not trying to fight him dumbass." [i] She catches up to him until she's a few feet away from him.[/i] "Ronin." [i] She says, like she can't believe it. He turns to face them; the mask slightly unnerving.[/i] "Yes?" [i] His tone is cold and metallic, like razors on ice, and Red visibly shudders.[/i]
-
[b]Nobody puts one hand on the barrel of the shotgun on his back, ready to swing it out, and another in his bag of meds, and takes a few steps back[/b]
-
"Y-you're him. You're the worlds best swordsman. You've been around for thousands of years, and you're here." [i] Red stands there stock still, and Ronin rests a hand on the hilt of his triple swords.[/i] "Last time I checked. Who are you, and you're friend?" [i] She glances at Nobody.[/i] "My names Red." [i]Ronin chuckles through the mask, an unnerving sound.[/i] "No it isn't. I know who you are." [i] Nobody sees the muscles in Red's body tense up.[/i]
-
Alright, one of you mind explaining to me what the hell is going on?
-
"What do you want me to explain kid?" [i] Ronin asks.[/i]
-
Well, for starters, mind filling me in on what you're doing here, on this specific ship?
-
[i] He seems to have lost interest in Nobody and walks circles around Red, with the grace of a panther, his stature predatory.[/i] "I've heard a few things about you Red." [i] She stands still, her grey eyes following his movements but her body paralyzed.[/i]
-
Do something, do something... [b]He mutters to himself and wracks his brain trying to think of something[/b]
-
"A prodigy people call you." [i] He continues to walk around her, dragging a finger across her back along her shoulders, and Red's skin responds as it was touched by a live wire, the muscles going taut and her not moving.[/i]
-
Come on Red, don't just stand there... [b]He pushes with everything he has in his head, hoping he'll get through to her somehow[/b]
-
[i] She seems paralyzed, Ronin's presence seeming to numb her. Now that Nobody thinks about it, he feels it too. Like the air is getting colder, and the air is getting thinner, like they're high in the atmosphere. [/i] [spoiler]he can step in or something, try to be a good friend, Ronin won't kill him haha.[/spoiler]
-
Hey, you gonna answer my question? Or just leave me here to watch you two get intimate? [spoiler]Wasn't sure if I was going to end up watching a sword fight[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]nah. Red is good, but Ronin is a million years beyond her. She's right to be terrified and paralyzed. This guys reputation proceeds him.[/spoiler] [i] Ronin stops and turns to him.[/i] "Why I'm here? I got bored."
-
Then what's your plan? I don't think you came here for a drink and some poker. [spoiler]OH. Great.[/spoiler]
-
"No, I've got a plan. One of which doesn't concern you."
-
I'm on the ship aren't I? I'm a part of this team aren't I? Then it does concern me.
-
"Who said I was a part of the FN?"
-
That wasn't said, and you certainly don't like it. But I am. And someone of your caliber being bored in a place like this makes me worry slightly. [spoiler]I'm sorry, I'm really tired, I'm going to sleep. G'night.[/spoiler]
-
"Good." [i] He says, you can practically hear the smirk in his tone.[/i] [spoiler]no problem dude. Just reply to this when you can; goodnight.[/spoiler]
-
Tch. Ya know what I hate? People that are overconfident and arrogant, and think that they can do whatever the hell they want. [b]He scowls[/b]
-
"Kid, I'm not arrogant. If I was arrogant, I'd tell you that id cut you down right now."
-
Oh? So then what's stopping you? [b]He seems genuinely curious[/b]
-
"Because you haven't drawn that shotgun of yours."
-
[b]Nobody grins [/b] If I fought you, I wouldn't use the shotgun. You would move too quickly. Don't forget where my other hand is.
-
"Frankly, I don't care." [i] Red shivers again.[/i]
