Rem Aoyama knew absolutely nothing when it came to the war that was stirring from deep within the bowels of Public High School #259. All he could make of all the rumors circulating the hallways and classrooms was that there was a beef between some of the higher ups at the school. The specifics had gone completely over his head. Yet, somehow, all of this connected to Emily, and her new crush Unfettered, the leader of the gang he had blindly entered to protect Emily.
To remedy this situation, Rem had requested that Emily use her feminine wiles, if indeed she had any (she was his sister after all and could never see her that way), to arrange for a meeting with the three of them. Professionally speaking, this was just to get more info on the gang, the war brewing, and other such things. Underneath, he simply wanted to see the guy her sister had gone all 'gah-gah' over.
Rem sat idly in an empty classroom, waiting. It was the end of the day, most students had already gone. To whoever entered the classroom, they'd see a rather large yellow bird staring contemplatively out the window, when in actuality it would just be Rem in a rather convincing Chocobo cosplay.

OOC:  ... Let's get the comic relief taken care of, first. And... is this before or after the Enforcer thread?...I Have A Sudden Craving For KFC... Emily said that... she wanted "Unfettered" to meet someone. And, for the fact that she wanted to help him so willingly with his goals, he didn't see why not. Looking back at her, giving a curt nod, not quite smiling, as he was attempting to mentally prepare himself for all sorts of worst case scenarios, he turned about and opened the door, gently entering---

OoC: I'd think... after? owo;
...awww XD -gives Unfettered plushie-Ok. This could get pretty insane now. It'd been quite a while since Emily and Rem had been together like this... and that was since Emily was adopted by yet another crazy family right here in the states. So... as of now, she didn't know what to expect... ... She trailed after "Unfettered" and caught up with him once they reached the door of the classroom they were supposed to meet. ... The door was slowly opened... ... ... o___o o___o-____- *twitch*"Rem Aoyama..." she said, crossing her arms and breathing to control her now boiling fury. "... this is ... "Unfettered" Winters. Unfettered, this is... unfortunately, my brother."... "...In a silly Chocobo cosplay."Cosplay...? ... Ok, now she's got an idea just whom exactly gave this man an excuse to be silly. "Layla... why do you tolerate him being such an ass when it comes to me?" she thought, sighing as she walked over and sat on a desk. ... "Now, you two. Talk." She said, crossing her legs to try and get comfortable despite her new clothes (1st set). Well, her usual set was in need of patching up and/or replacement after that riot with the enforcers just recently... this red and black outfit was one of the few things in the store that caught Emily's eye two days ago... and so... well, you know. >__> ...

Upon hearing the classroom door open and slide shut, a slight grin plastered itself across Rem's face, the only part of himself that was visible through the cosplay. He pivoted his body a full 180 degrees to face the newcomers.
"Rem Aoyama... this is ... "Unfettered" Winters. Unfettered, this is... unfortunately, my brother... In a silly Chocobo cosplay.""
It couldn't be more clear that he had Emily entangled in the famous embarrassing family situation. Good. Stage One: complete. Time to go full force.
"Wark!!! Ore-sama no Chocobo no Sekai ni Youkoso, kodomo-tachi!" (Wark!!! Welcome to My Chocobo world, kiddies!)
He spread his wings (arms) out wide, as though inviting someone for a hug, but then quickly crossed them both over his chest. He cast a critical eye on the man that accompanied his sister. Even a complete amateur could tell that this man was light years from being a pushover. As expected from Emily's crush, he thought, she sure has a thing for freakishly strong guys.
"Now, you two. Talk."
Rem stalked forward and issued Unfettered a wing to shake.
"Ah, so this is the guy my baby sister has this humongous crush on. Since you're the head of this rag-tag gang, I'm going to call you leader."
He leaned forward right into the man's face giving him a closer inspection. The upper and lower beaks of his costume would look as though they were clamping onto his head, but in reality they weren't really touching him at all. If anyone came in, it'd look as though a chocobo had latched itself onto the guy's head. Then, he retreated, giving the man back his comfort space.
"I want to know two things, leader."
His face grew serious, which made his total appearance all the more amusing.
"I don't really understand your goals... what you're trying to achieve with this gang. To be perfectly honest, I don't really care about your goals. I simply joined to make sure my sister remains safe. No other reason. But knowing what I've gotten myself into is the smart thing to do, so my head tells me. That being said...this comes to my second inquiry."
With that, a sly grin crept across his lips.
"Have you been banging my sister? I've never seen her so infatuated with anyone in my entire life. Not that I need any help in that department, Its just that I've got a girlfriend I need to get into cosplay. Whatever you're doing, you gotta teach me!"

Flustering Revelations "Wark!!! Ore-sama no Chocobo no Sekai ni Youkoso, kodomo-tachi!" o_x...
For a moment longer, the German continued to stare. With a flutter, the large... bird, spread out its wings, and "Unfettered" was hit with further feelings of confusion, taking half a step forward, before the wings crossed over each other, across the... bird's... chest. What was it? Rem? Just as suddenly, however, he felt as though he were under scrutiny, mind quick to recover, taking back his step, looking at Emily's apparent brother. Recent memories of one of his conversations with Em provided the info. Step brother, perhaps? Honorary brother? Summat like that? But why would he be glared at so? Its not like he was going out with her---"Ah, so this is the guy my baby sister has this humongous crush on. Since you're the head of this rag-tag gang, I'm going to call you leader." o_x
...
>_x
Glancing back, away from Emily---Whoa. Double-take. Wearing something nice and... different, from what she usually wore.
>_x;
He glanced back again, at... 'Rem'. Trying bit by bit to absorb everything completely he was being bombarded with. Mentally and emotionally. ...'Leader', huh? Trying to regain his composure, "Unfettered" extended out his own hand, and grasped Rem's... 'wing' and gripped it nice. Being careful not to accidentally crush it, though..."Uh... vell, hallo..." ---Just as his new acquaintance leaned in uncomfortably close. But, trying to fight the blood from rushing to his face, all things considered, for the whole scenario he was in, he stared right back, face stony(ish), as the beak was leeringly close. The inspection done, "Unfettered" stood his ground, pocketing his hands, as he tried to figure out exactly what he was feeling at this moment. Embarrassed for not realizing what Emily felt sooner (granted, he caught a glimpse of it at the restaurant), confused for being put under scrutiny in this strange mishap, and/or---"I want to know two things, leader." Relieved to be rid of his thoughts for the moment, the German prepped up his eyebrows, giving a sudden amount of full attention."I don't really understand your goals... what you're trying to achieve with this gang. To be perfectly honest, I don't really care about your goals. I simply joined to make sure my sister remains safe. No other reason. But knowing what I've gotten myself into is the smart thing to do, so my head tells me. That being said...this comes to my second inquiry." "Have you been banging my sister? I've never seen her so infatuated with anyone in my entire life. Not that I need any help in that department, Its just that I've got a girlfriend I need to get into cosplay. Whatever you're doing, you gotta teach me!" ---He nearly fell.
Catching himself on a nearby desk, he looked about. Tall, proud man though he was, regardless of how much he prided himself on his cold, emotionless face, it always seemed as though women would always be his downfall in one way or another.
Slow on the uptake, he slid his hands over his face slowly, as if to press the blood rushing to his face down, staring coldly ahead, breathing in to calm himself, to focus himself, to focus. ...And then, almost as suddenly, his face was calm again."...My goals..." taking his time, breathing quietly, but the strain was almost visible. "...Involve the law of economics. A bit of self-sacrifice, and a sense of duty... There are... other ideals, principles that I'd like to say that are in here, and are intended, but those, for ze most part... vill only be bonuses."
"..Zings like... showing how ineffective the current student hiearchy is, improving ze peace in ze long-run, tending to ze transfer problem, insuring democracy in my own twisted manner... und... a few other idealz und tidbits." Throwing caution to the wind. This was... a show of faith. To his compatriot, Emily, and to her brother. For without anyone, he couldn't accomplish anything in the first place. But a tinge of red glistened over his face, as he looked away, his hair 'conveniently' falling over his face. "Az for your zister... and... 'zis'... vell..."
"....Zis is all actually news to me."Tough guy? Maybe.
But his stance had definetely softened, and a vulnerable spot had been revealed. Something he was pressing to correct, while still maintaining a 'gentlemen' manner, yet protecting himself and his own emotions at the same time. After all... just about all of his past relationships with women in the past had been shredded to tatters, when they tried to get too near to him in the past.
Self-conflict was the issue here, as well as the sincerity of what he was feeling, and any lingering feelings he might still have.
Scheiss. |

OOC: Poor Emily XD:;
"Ah, so this is the guy my baby sister has this humongous crush on. Since you're the head of this rag-tag gang, I'm going to call you leader."
Emily nodded blankly. "Uh hu-... WAIT JUST A MINUTE!" She said, flushing red.
Then Rem spoke again, looking a little more serious. Emily relaxed and prayed to Kami he wouldn't pull off another secret revealing statement. Jeez... and she never even told anyone about it. It was that obvious... most likely because she, herself, wasn't clear of her own petty emotions.
"I want to know two things, leader. I don't really understand your goals... what you're trying to achieve with this gang. To be perfectly honest, I don't really care about your goals. I simply joined to make sure my sister remains safe. No other reason. But knowing what I've gotten myself into is the smart thing to do, so my head tells me. That being said...this comes to my second inquiry."
Emily'e left eyebrow rose...
"Have you been banging my sister? I've never seen her so infatuated with anyone in my entire life. Not that I need any help in that department, Its just that I've got a girlfriend I need to get into cosplay. Whatever you're doing, you gotta teach me!"
"B-Banging!? EXCUSE ME?!" she exclaimed, moving forward towards her brother only to fall forward into the floor. Emily quickly stood to regain her posture. "Lies..." she mumbled, cursing under her breath. Well, this was a conversation between Unfettered and Rem, and basically ... she'd just be here for decoration... >___>
"...My goals... ...Involve the law of economics. A bit of self-sacrifice, and a sense of duty... There are... other ideals, principles that I'd like to say that are in here, and are intended, but those, for ze most part... vill only be bonuses."
"...Zings like... showing how ineffective the current student hiearchy is, improving ze peace in ze long-run, tending to ze transfer problem, insuring democracy in my own twisted manner... und... a few other idealz und tidbits.Az for your zister... and... 'zis'... vell... Zis is all actually news to me."
Emily sighed as she sat on a nearby chair, just taking deep breaths. Well, she never really intended to let Unfettered know of her own feelings, primarily because she's not exactly sure...
... but Rem had done enough damage, reacting any more could add more fuel to the fire and sighed again in defeat. "Mmmph." she said, looking away. Despite her open denials, the blush on her face said most of the truth for her...
... things are going to get very complicated from now on.

"...My goals... ...Involve the law of economics. A bit of self-sacrifice, and a sense of duty... There are... other ideals, principles that I'd like to say that are in here, and are intended, but those, for ze most part... vill only be bonuses."
Rem dropped to the floor on his haunches, nodding as he listened with rapt attention. He brought his leg up to scratch his ear with the clawed feet of the chocobo costume after a bit.
"...Zings like... showing how ineffective the current student hiearchy is, improving ze peace in ze long-run, tending to ze transfer problem, insuring democracy in my own twisted manner... und... a few other idealz und tidbits.
"I see..."
Rem sat silently for a few moments, mulling over everything the leader had just told with the utmost seriousness. Though the man sounded a little less compelling than one would expect from someone trying to change the natural order of his/her environment, Rem could sense this man's determination. It was like an aura of pure purpose or like a foul odor that hung in the air around him, no wait, that was just the costume.
"I'm still not at all interested in any of the things you've mentioned, however..."
Rem rose to his feet, ripping off his chocobo costume to reveal a relatively more normal appearance. He wore sneakers and a pair of cargos, a black belt with a silver buckle adorning it. A plain white muscle shirt peeked out from under a jet black hoodie, the hood of which was designed to look like the head of a chocobo; the yellow a staunch contrast to the black. The word "Militia" was sprayed on the back of the hoodie in random, graffitti-like letters. Rem pulled the hood over his head and peeked out from under it with a very wry grin.
"I'm intrigued enough to hang around to see how your plans work out, eh, leader?"
He gestured a two-fingered salute.
"Oh, and don't call me Rem anytime I'm hanging around the gang. Call me Chocorem~!"
"Az for your zister... and... 'zis'... vell... Zis is all actually news to me."
At that, he simply chuckled, pulling his blushing, embarrassed little sister forward and propping her up directly in front of Unfettered.
"Well, let's have her change that, shall we~? Go ahead baby sis, tell our great leader what you think of 'im~"

"W-wait, Rem!" She basically shouted directly at her brother's ears as she was pulled towards Unfettered. Her cheeks were now a pale pink, obviously... she was trying to hide her feelings as much as humanly possible.
Emily didn't DARE to look up at Unfettered (who's over a feet taller than herself) out of embarrassment and the sudden closeness.
It was already unnerving to be at this distance from a guy (who's not family); it was even more so to be THIS close to a guy that she actually likes! ...
... and since this was her first experience with such an emotion, this made a catastrophic blow on Emily's mind. Her breathing became laboured, and almost forced...
'Ugh... I feel ... lightheaded...'
"Well, let's have her change that, shall we~? Go ahead baby sis, tell our great leader what you think of 'im~"
Her breathing became even MORE laboured now -- This was abuse!
"R-Rem!" the look on Emily's face was of complete horror and fear, it was if she was pleading to God to spare her. She took a breath, looking forward, yet never still onto the face of the guy in front of her.
Her body felt cold -- almost as if she had been thrown ice-cold water at. Emily's hands became clammy... and her heartbeat accelerated.
'Tell him... I-I ca-can't! --- Think optimistic... he might --- NO!'
'Lalala~ You don't need to tell him directly!
'... No!'
"I-I...." she said, struggling with words. "... I-I-I....."
Her body began to shake slightly. Qi surging violently out of her body and into the surrounding environment -- the now hot temperature made the already warm California weather seem a lot more warmer, probably even to the point of making Unfettered feel quite warm even if his Ice-affiliated Qi affected his body temperature.
OOC: WTH, Living heater?
... "I-..." She balled her hand into a fist, and considered the facts -- Rem was a hard-headed jackass with little regard for her feelings, even throughout her life in Japan. He technically sheltered her; if you add that to Emily's social awkwardness, there was nothing to pick up strength from and... well...
... she could say this was a lose-lose situation. Maybe? Maybe not...? 'Look... at him when you say it!'
"I-I Lik-!" She looked up at him right immediately as she began, then immediately paused. "-e..."
"...you." Her eyes had made contact with Unfettered's, and she basically flushed red before her mind imploded violently, having her pass out right there and then, falling forward.
OoC: Having fun yet, you two? XD
WARNING: The fun is just getting started. Darn you, Tsi. XD;

Unconciouss, Pretty Girl + 2 Horny Guys =
The Price Of Life Wide-eyed... With what? Fear? Concern? Worry? These protests and the reluctance to even meet him eye-to-eye concerned him. And already, he had a bad premonition of things to come."I-I...."
"... I-I-I....."
... "I-..."
"I-I Lik-!"
"-e..."
"...you."And like that, she fell forward, "Unfettered" lowering himself quickly, almost slamming himself to his knees to catch her. Football style: Left arm underneath, right arm on top, clasping over. God, was it getting hot in here, or was it just him? Temperature-wise... though, if he was still a little bit more like 'him'... well, no. He couldn't say for certain, he grinned with a slight grimace. Damn. Had she really fainted?"..Vell, Re---Er... 'Choco...rem...' vith your guys' support, I zuppose zis is indeed ze beginning, ja?" almost as if he was completely unbothered by the fact that his main subordinate had just fainted on him. But that didn't mean he wasn't caressing her with a degree of care."..If you'll call me leader, zen, I have some orders."
"But... it vill require some strength. Do you zink you are capable of whatever I may ask of you?"Quietly looking up at his new comrade. Left arm propping up Emily's neck at a healthier angle, as he slowly (for a lack of better terminology) dragged her, and propped her up against a desk.
"Unfettered" remained quiet... thoughtful over this new situation. He would have to break down the goals to a far simpler level, if he was to get people to care for this.
...Unfortunately, as he looked away from Emily and back to 'Chocorem' again... he knew exactly what it was. |

Rem hurried over to the desk where Unfettered propped up his sister, all the while nodding at what the man asked him. With most haste, he began to pull off his sister's clothing, starting with her shirt, leaving her upper body, plus bra, totally exposed.
"God, this girl. You'd have thought she'd grown out of this..."
He leapt over her body and began to pull her skirt off, and it was only halfway through this motion that the thought that his actions were most likely being totally misunderstood by his new leader. He gave the man a nervous grin as he dragged off her skirt and pressed the back of his hand against her forehead to feel her temperature.
"Everytime she gets like this she faints and ...overheats... for the lack of a better word. If we don't get her clothes off, she'll burn up and...well...yeah...."
He rose to his feet as he moved around the classroom, opening all of the windows.
"As far as your question. It depends on whether or not I agree, though judging by your tone I doubt its something I'd have any problem doing, so my answer will inevitably be yes. Now..."
He made his way out the classroom door, pausing at the entrance slightly.
"I'm gonna see if the school nurse is still here. You stay and keep an eye on her, kthxbai!"
And with that, Rem was gone.

Well, This Isn't Awkward! Nope, Not At All! =D... Nodding in turn, he looked at Em's brother, as she began to tend to---Wait. Excuse me, wtf are you doing thar?
 "God, this girl. You'd have thought she'd grown out of this...""Everytime she gets like this she faints and ...overheats... for the lack of a better word. If we don't get her clothes off, she'll burn up and...well...yeah...."O;_;O"Oh... oh... ja. I understand.. I... zink..."Still, after a moment, he realized he was gawking... and quickly shook his head. No, now wasn't the time... Even if it was spurred on by equally ludicrous occurrences. But he was still distracted, trying not to look at Em, as the wind began blowing, let in by the windows."As far as your question. It depends on whether or not I agree, though judging by your tone I doubt its something I'd have any problem doing, so my answer will inevitably be yes. Now...""Huh---wha? Oh.. oh.. ja." Standing up slowly, he nodded..."I'm gonna see if the school nurse is still here. You stay and keep an eye on her, kthxbai!""..V-Vait!"...He should be the one going after the nurse... Instead of the brother. That didn't make logical sense... Hell, a lot of this didn't. Didn't... 'Choco..whatsit' think it a bit... 'WRONG' to leave her scantly clad little sister with someone he's just barely met? For that matter... why did he trust "Unfettered" so much? Having never been in a situation like this before, "Unfettered" wasn't even sure he could trust him---No. No.
That was exactly it though, wasn't it?
Trust.
And, after all... this was Em they were talking about here. He had to grin to himself, blowing the hair out of his face, now that the... 'blood' had stopped rushing there. Not that anyone could've seen it anyways, but...
There was a job to do.
Breathing lightly into his own hands, he waited for a moment, before promptly sitting down, Indian style, next to Em. Cool. Literally. Holding his hands in front of himself, he stared for a moment, thinking... but it was fairly obvious. The question was... how to do it in a way that wouldn't look provocative/wrong if someone came in on them. After all... this was Mr. Winters we were dealing with... Whipping off his other glove, he promptly pocketed the both of them, scooting himself underneath the desk that Em was propped up against.
His eyes went over her once.
...Shouldn't have done that, but he shook his head. Arms going about his neck, he threw off his scarf and his Hades Coat, which were all actually slightly cold, awkwardly throwing it in front of Emily. Standing up (and bumping his head painfully at the bottom of the student desk), his arms and hands went about Em's waist, hoisting her up, letting her head flop backwards at his right shoulder... (To be noted, he hesitated, cold, but a little tinge of red at his cheeks nonetheless as his face contorted to that of not knowing what to feel.
Promptly, he scooted back down into a crouch, laying Em on her back, on top of his Hades Coat. Mentally noting two things: About 5% of the human's body heat escaped from the feet. Which he promptly rushed about to take care of, untying and throwing about the shoes, and sliding off the socks. However... ~90% of body heat escaped through the head. And massaging a girl's feet when she was unconscious might look weird, so.......
Going about her again, he scooted himself, Indian style, using his right hand behind himself to direct himself, and his left hand to lift up Em's head, until he safely placed it down between his legs. Next was the easy bit.
Think cold."..Phoo... hua..."Took a moment. Two. But as he hunched forward to feel her already hot forehead... his entire body was beginning to cool down. Down to an unhealthy level. But still managable. And much less... without coat or scarf on, just a white shirt, he began shivering a little. Grinning to himself, though. This was trust, eh? Or... what was this?
At any rate, his hands began to go to her forehead, sorta massaging it lightly with his fingers, hair draping over her face, not really thinking about much except...
...How warm the tips of his fingers were, currently. |

I dunno when Rem plans to come back, but... I think we have to continue this until he comes back X__X
Thrown into a pool of winter-cold water, this past memory of Emily's.
Unconscious and dead to the world, Emily laid there on Jon's lap, unconscious but catching up to the world of the awake. 'It's cold." she noted, feeling cold around her back and on her forehead. Her Qi was calming down, temperatures falling back into the safe zone.
She was very capable of maintaining her temperatures, usually. But... panic wasn't really one of the emotions Emily could control once she gets it.
The cold was comfort right now, saving her form "overheating" as Rem called it... but this was California, where did it come from?
A groan escaped her as she somewhat shifted her head to the right. She stopped though and started pretending to be asleep, noting that something was supporting her head... and touching her forehead with light touches. Who was this? Surely not Rem. Rem's Qi was lightning-affiliated, as he had demonstrated quite some time before.
Her eyelids shook, opening slightly and she turned to look at Unfettered -- still quite sleepy. "What... just... happened?"
Well... physically she was back to normal.
-- but her heart was racing even more so that earlier, a pale blush tingling again on her cheeks.

...Well, You Asked "What... just... happened?""...You confessed to me, und fainted. Your bruzzer stripped you down (to prevent overheating), and iz now looking for a nurse... Und I'm applying my Qi to make sure you don't overheat."Practically rehearsed, considering the blank look in his face. Or look of a boy deep in thought to rehearse the whole past five minutes in his mind from memory, play by play. Didn't take long for it to turn into a smile, looking back down at her, hair still draping over her slightly, but a look of genuine relief on his face."...Und now, I'm glad you're avake." he said, still massaging her temples, softly. Softly. |

Seconds turned into minutes of thought...
"...You confessed to me, und fainted. Your bruzzer stripped you down (to prevent overheating), and iz now looking for a nurse... Und I'm applying my Qi to make sure you don't overheat."
'So I did.... and I fainted.. why is it so drafty?' she thought, her hand wandering off to touch her stomach, to find out there were no evidence of clothes. 'What the hell?'
Her hands went to wander around, double checking to find any sort of clothing... well, she touched this and that and found a bra.... panties -- God, at least Rem had the decency to leave them on.
Should she cover them with her hands? Then again... he's... probably already seen... what's the use of hiding it further?
'He's.. cold.' She noted though, soft touches massaging her still. Still flustered, but not in panic... Emily's Qi maintained a comfortable aura of warmth around her as he continued. ...Still blushing, quite a bit.
"...Und now, I'm glad you're avake."
A warm, happy smile crept across her lips as she looked up at her 'leader'... but it didn't last long; it disappeared as soon as her green eyes met with his eye. "I'm... sorry... if my feelings for you are.... quite... ill-timed." she apologized, "I don't quite understand it."
Ill-timed? Why? Because in a 'war', having feelings can be used as a weakness.... can be used against you. Her feelings for him... could be used against her... or him even, when played right. She cared about Unfettered enough to know that...
... she... didn't want to end up being in the way of his ambition.
Right now, she wanted to stay like this.
It might never come again.

Confusion And Conclusion A smile came on her face, but quickly retracted itself. In a way, it saddened him, because he could already see potential reasons as to why. Could she be detrimental to his goals? Would it be alright to---No. At least not yet. But still, for the second---third time, he was hurting a girl. Although... Mitsuki was a strong girl, Calamity had outright broken down into something that reminded him of so much of himself that they fought. Physically. And what now, with someone who is not only willing as... 'Miss Scorn' was, but also actually capable?"I'm... sorry... if my feelings for you are.... quite... ill-timed."An eyebrow raised."I don't quite understand it."..."Zat makes two of us."Quietly, he stopped massaging her, but looked back up, so his hair wouldn't tickle her face anymore. Tucking it behind his ears with both hands, his cold hands went up to her shoulders, and propped her up... To outright lean against him. No expression on his face, but his arms... went about to her stomach.
...A confession?---"Please bear vith me. I'm still not quite ready, nor vould ze circumstances be beneficial... to eizer of us. But... if zis much is alright vith you, I'd like to stay like zis for a while."Just a hug, unless that felt uncomfortable to her. For one, though... he was feeling frigid, and... some of his words were a bit shaky. Shivering. That, and, her Qi was still active, so he didn't know when to turn off his, nor know if she had full control over her Qi yet.
The first girl he kissed... due to infatuation and loneliness. Incapable fighter, blind follower... provided no benefit. Perhaps he was just being harsh, and in that case, that would be his own fault for not seeing her for who she was and what she wanted to be for him. His loss.
The second girl, he developed a crush on. But she was cold. Yet he still had more then a few inkling feelings for her, in spite of how he tried to bury it. Throwing himself into the justification that this war against her, and various other parts of corruption (being full aware that Militia itself may have been conceived from thus)... He had to believe it, or all of his goals would fall to fruitless, and nothing would be accomplished.
The third girl... Well, he wasn't even sure if he loved her. This was definetely, in these immediate stages, infatuation. ...And considering the fact that she... was... well... Did she work out a lot or something? Dammit.
No more promises.
No more flinging of shallowly thought-out infatuation-induced moves.
No rushed kisses.
No deep-rooted emotional attachment (this would be hardest... since she had definetely become a good friend).
But mercy? Would he be able to deal with one of his friends, one of his comrades being kidnapped?
The answer was simple.
He could not waver.
..His arms grew tight around her stomach, provided she hadn't pushed him off yet. |

... Let's get the comic relief taken care of, first. And... is this before or after the Enforcer thread?
