[It could be anywhere. Whether you are in town or in a field, you may feel that you're being watched.]

[Turn around, and you'll find him. Or maybe he's standing in front of you.]

[What will you do?]

Comments

[dawnsguardian]

[Stare back, obviously. Because seriously, that's kind of creepy dude.]

What are you doing?

[eightofseven]

[That hair... a Hōtsuin?]

Watching.

[dawnsguardian]

[A hotter whatter?]

For what?

[glassworkgenius]

[Taiyou was out exploring a field, preparing to train himself up more in combat when he got that feeling of somebody trailing after him. It's... odd. But Taiyou was never the type to think badly of people, so when he finally sees the white-haired figure he politely waves.]

You don't have to be shy. Did you want to talk?

[eightofseven]

I did not, but we will talk if that is what you want.

[Hmm. A powerful spirit, to be sure...]

[glassworkgenius]

Why not, right? [Taiyou tilts his head.] Is there any specific reason you're here? If you're not too busy we could train together!

[lookslikemomo]

....

[staring back, uncomfortably. this is a field area, and PKers might be here... not that he's encountered one before, but still!]

... You weren't thinking of killing me for my loot, were you? [steps back, just in case.]

[eightofseven]

No. I would not limit the freedom of any human.

[lookslikemomo]

Oh... [...okay...]

Did you want to party up, then...?

[firetrap]

[ Strategist senses tingling. Lu Xun knows he's being watched but he pretends not to notice until --

His eyes widen a little when he sees a strange boy in front of him. ] What--? [ He takes a small step backwards, surprised. Inwardly, he readies himself, in case he has to fight. ] Teleportation?

[eightofseven]

I do not possess such a power.

[firetrap]

...I see. [ To think he'd tried not to let himself be caught off guard! ] Have I intruded on your training space? If so, I apologize.

[galaxiapride]

[He was sitting in a field against a nicely textured tree, looking down and reading through the logs on the Relic. He looks up when his fellow stalker senses get triggered.]

Yes?

[eightofseven]

Ah, hello. You were with the Shining One a few days ago.

[galaxiapride]

[Shining One? He vaguely remembers him calling that... weirdo that.]

And you are his friend from home.

[dragonsjaw]

[ he hasn't felt the sensation of being watched so acutely since all that time ago in Tian Shui but he's not deluded enough to expect his mentor to appear out of thin air.

More likely expecting an ambush so excuse the spear he has pointed at you when he spins around. ]

...who are you?

[ you look human but he doesn't know enough about the creatures here or even the people here to know whether or not this person is dangerous. ]

[eightofseven]

It is my purpose to answer that question.

In the meantime, however, I am the Anguished One.

[brightfuture]

[ Although Hope can sense the danger from afar, this... he can't quite put his finger on. The boy quickly takes a turn into a side street to make sure it's not just imagination suspecting an innocent passer-by, but the other person's presence remains strong.

Alarmed, he turns around. ]

Just what's your problem?!

[eightofseven]

My problem does not concern you.

[What an interesting first question to ask.]

[inhearts]

[ The feeling of being watched like this is very familiar.

Minako is slightly startled anyway. ] ...Saiduq-san!

[eightofseven]

Hello, Deathly One. How are you feeling?

[adarable]

[ > Smile confusedly. ]

A...h..

... H.. hello..!

[eightofseven]

Hello.

[You're sure you wanted to do that?]

[noisyclockhands]

[ And you would be so dead if he knew that you are creeping on his sister B|

in any case, without that knowledge, the reaction for this scenario will be:

> smile in this really exasperated way that shows how very used he is to these things ]

You don't have a home, do you.

DERP, I SO DROPPED THE BALL ON THIS ONE.

[eightofseven]

What caused you to arrive at that conclusion?
