"Use this"? How am I supposed to use this piece of trash...?

[groangroangroan whiiine. the kid looks displeased, as do 90% of the people who first arrive here. he taps the red light with a gloved finger, continues to glare into its camera.]

... Right. So there's obviously peopl—

[he breaks off mid-sentence, eyebrows furrowing. turning, the camera swivels with him to catch sight of a department store and then his apparent cause for alarm*. but mental berating aside for not noticing the thing before it's literally within meters of him, yukio smiles. glances at the camera and tucks it into a coat pocket. enjoy the view of darkness for a while. calmly:]

Invaders must die.

[nope. she continues to move strangely, her crying more audible, it's as if it's she that's yet to notice him.]

What the hell.. I said, 'invaders must die'!

[a thud. the scraping of claws against broken cement, yukio taking a few faltering steps backward.]

INVADERS MUST D—

[WHAM. the recording ends.]

That's very curiously powerful apathy, if you don't mind my saying so.

I'm really not all that intriguing, I promise you.

I'm sure that most men don't believe so, since they're accustomed to their own ways.

No one else believes that either.

That's very much like not seeing a forest for the trees, I think. That's a truly valuable lesson.

Are you always this mystical?

You flatter me far too much. Thank you.

I didn't really see it that way, but okay.

I suppose it's more important that the recipient of a compliment registers it rather than the giver, correct?

You don't count intent with this kinda thing?

Edited 2012-07-21 05:32 (UTC)

I won't allow intent to harm me. After all, your intent might change in the future as we grow to know one another better.

I guess if you really want it that way.

For a friendship to form, it's a good attitude to have.

[...]

You want to be my friend.

I'm confident that it would not strain me too much.

Oooooh, but you're assuming I want any!

Edited 2012-07-29 06:34 (UTC)

You're assuming that that knowledge will change my mind.

[this is actually

kind of infuriating him]

Man, see? This is what I get for trying to be nice...!

I guess it's your time to waste, right?

Brushing away someone's extended hand of friendship is "nice"? [ Hmm, somehow that doesn't seem like the normal human response. ]

It's very fortunate that I'm not a delicate soul, but can you imagine if I was? Perhaps you should scale it back a bit, hm?

It'd be way easier if you were...

On the inside, a gentle poet. On the outside, a bit more weather worn. It's quite alright; you might appreciate it later.

[what. what just happened he isn't sure.

also he doubts that too, but he's said that enough for one day.]

[ Silence will never deter him. He will wait patiently to be hung up on properly. ]
