Comments

[wingears]

Perhaps faith needs to be shown to them. And shown to you.

[Those eyes seem to stare into him, as if trying to read him. While looking almost identical to Shadowmaru...

They were oh...so very different.]

Every one. Deckerd, McCrane, Power Joe, Dumpson, Drill Boy, Gunmax, and Shadowmaru.

[fuckinstoplights]

Have faith. In those who want to see me dead?

[He stares back. While only one of his optics is actually visible, it's still panicked. Still frightened.]

[The world wasn't right, if Shadowmaru were harmed.]

He's all right then... He's okay.

[wingears]

Have faith that they can learn. That they HAVE learned.

Lady did.

[He sees that fear, and continues to hold his hand out.]

You mean Shadowmaru.

[fuckinstoplights]

Just because one did doesn't mean the rest will.

[He actually trembles, hearing that. Relief, fear, hope... all kinds of things flood through him.]

[He nods.]

... Yes. Yes, I do.

[wingears]

Sometimes, one is all it takes to make something happen. Yuuta did that with Deckerd.

[He pauses.]

We worked together, Shadowmaru and I.

[fuckinstoplights]

I'll believe that if I ever see it.

[Something in his expression changes. It's subtle, slight, but there's a definite change in the way he's looking at Duke.]

... A new partner for him? Is that what they made you to be?

[wingears]

...

[Duke will let that go. It's not his place to decide Kagerou's opinions.]

...No. Just for a few missions. I wasn't made for the Brave Police, after all.

[fuckinstoplights]

[That look... whatever it was... vanishes. His calm mask is back in place again.]

... Not his partner.

Who is?

[wingears]

As I recall, no one. He is meant for infiltration.

[Duke's not stupid, he can see where this is going.]

You were his partner.

[fuckinstoplights]

... None. He's alone.

[And for some reason, that hurts. Did he do something wrong...?]

[He looks away.]

Something like it.

[wingears]

I wouldn't say alone. He has friends...we're all his friends.

[He lowers his head, attempting to catch the ninja's eye.]

And you are not now?

[fuckinstoplights]

... He's too good to be alone. He deserves friends.

[His head snaps back up, suddenly bristling.]

I'm not there with him, am I?

[wingears]

He has them. Many of them. I was...jealous of their friendship when I first came. I didn't belong.

[A silence falls over him. And when he does speak, his voice is considerably quiet.]

No.

[fuckinstoplights]

He deserves them. He was meant for them. [He glances at Duke.] And now you do. Lucky. Isn't it?

[His voice sharpens, though he doesn't raise it.]

Then you have your answer.

[wingears]

I am lucky to have them as friends. You're right.

[He wouldn't deny what was right. But he catches that sharp note.]

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have pressed the issue.

[fuckinstoplights]

To have him as your friend... you're even more lucky.

[His optic flicks in Duke's direction, before averting once more.]

... You're really apologizing?

[wingears]

[The question catches him by surprise.]

It is not often I do this. But I will admit I was in the wrong...to push on this subject.

[fuckinstoplights]

One of the Brave Police. Admitting they're wrong about something.

[He shakes his head.]

This place must be insane, after all.

[wingears]

[You have no idea how hard this is for him Kagerou. He's used to being a know-it-all.]

Yes.

...

Why do you say that?

[fuckinstoplights]

[No, he really doesn't know. He has no idea, in fact.]

Which part?

The part where the Brave Police have never listened to me? Or the part where the city is insane?

[wingears]

...Both.

[Don't diss the Brave Police, man. They were probably misinformed.]

[fuckinstoplights]

Because it's the truth. All of it.

[wingears]

What did the Brave Police do, Kagerou.


I want to know.

[He lowers his hand, resting it on his sword idly.]

[fuckinstoplights]

[Duke, looking like you're going for a weapon is possibly the worst idea you could have right now.]

[He takes a sudden, wary leap backward, landing atop the building behind him -- thank you wings and thrusters.]

Why?

So you can judge me as they did?

[wingears]

[The moment Kagerou leaps back, the instant Duke takes his hand off of the sword. He can see that it can be taken as a threat...]

You think I have not been judged by them?
