"Yosh'!" Faust stood up to full height, almost knocking his head on one of the dangling lights from the ceiling. @_@ "Woo.. well, I'm going to go get snacks.. those are definitely a must..." Laughing a bit, he stepped outside the doorway, and opened his umbrella, and POOF! With a Mary-Poppins-like act, he was up, up, and away! "Mata Arimasho!" ![]() OoC: Amie, co-maintainence is fine with me, what do you think, Mariko? ![]() (OOC: Aw, don't give the blog up! ;_; This is like my fav blog to post at! But yea.. I have a domain also, so if you needed any more help then, uh... yea. I have a domain. ^^;;; Maybe we could be like co-maintainers Inuki? XD) ![]() (OoC: Mariko, I can host your images on my site. I have a domain with plenty of room. If that sounds good to you let me know. I'd be afraid to take over the blog I'm afraid it may end up like mine which is noone really posts in T_T) ![]() (OoC: Is anyone willing to take over this blog? I'm pissed; the images are slowly beginning to delete themselves and I'm just not caring to update every day. Someone want to run it from now on?) ![]() "Hey! Excuse me!" Jam shoved past Ky and quickly walked towards the door which Baiken was trying to leave through. "Don't you think you're forgetting something, miss?" She shoved her hand out towards her, "Hmmm? Well?" She was sick of these ungrateful customers, and as much as she didn't mind them leaving, she wasn't about to be cheated out of her pay. ![]() Baiken watched the group, a tad bit bored by now. She really needed a good drink, tonight. "There should be a bar or some place to buy a drink, around here.." She got up from the table and made her way to the door. ![]() "For the two of you?" Jam paused for a moment, the drug addict hadn't eaten much, and she was torn between continuing with her nicer streak or charging the blonde full price. She debated this for awhile, then looked back at Ky. He hadn't given her any trouble, and he had removed the passed out Chipp from her table... "1,875¥." Jam then turned to Anji, graciously taking the money from his hand. She gave him a slight smile, he had turned out to be one of the decent ones, much to her amazement. She quickly shoved the money into her cleavage, thinking it the safest spot, and turned back around to face Ky again. While she waited Jam eyed Sol and the 2 Axls, letting out an annoyed sigh. ![]() He was busy working on the ham, and knew inevitably Jam was going to set her price wherever she felt like it, and knew, inevitably, he'd have the cash on hand to pay for it. Living from bounty to bounty, it was almost like not working at all. There was the thrill of the hunt for maybe a week if the target was lucky--or particularly good at hiding--and then the unsatisfying simple 'thwump' of the capture. Or 'shluck', if he got to go for the kill. Between thwumping and shlucking, the thrills were scarce. The money at his level was good, but the money, it didn't much impress him. And then there was living, day to day… There was a difference from the tournament indeed, something more sedentary in his pace. No less confidant, but lacking the focus, and in the focus the drive. It was all too damn easy, short of his ultimate goal. Easy as picking a fight with Anji or Jam. Why bother? He didn’t have anything against them beyond the general way he wasn’t interested in their company. Was the forty-five seconds it’d keep him busy worth getting that worked up? Nah. But now he had moon cakes. No shabby way to finish off a meal. Might have been more leisurely eating if he wasn’t keeping a wary eye on Axl. Both of them. ![]() It was one of the rare times that Anji carried cash. He excused himself from Sol's presence by sliding his dessert over in front of the Gear in lieu of an apology for lack of heartfelt goodbye and carefully counted out the price of his meal and a hefty tip for Jam. It was always truly wise to give Jam a good tip and then, as you were putting it in her hand, smile and claim warmly, "The extra is for your good company." Anji bowed just so to the young waitress, (Not so young really, only a year less than Anji himself,) and added, "Good luck. Keep Axl away from your money." ![]() Ky softly crept back into his room and quietly shut the door. He stared down at the sleeping Chipp thinking of what to do next. He thought about trying to get Chipp back to his own room, but then figured that might be more trouble than it was worth. However, there was only one drawback to having Chipp sleep in his room; Ky would have to sleep next to him. There were no other pieces of furniture in their rooms, and the floors were all uncarpeted, which made sleeping on the floor a very uncomfortable experience. "Oh well," Ky thought, "This might bring about an uncomfortable situation in the morning, considering he'll have no idea where he is when he wakes up, but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it." Ky also figured it best he wore his trousers to bed as well. Chipp may not appreciate him sleeping the way he normally did. ![]() Jam poked her head out the door upon hearing her name, then looked up at Anji, "Ah.. it'll be 1,400¥." Since Anji was also on her good list, she decided not to be too horrible with the price. Though, the others wouldn't be so lucky. Jam then exited the kitchen and walked towards the man, giving him a slight bow, "Thanks for the business!" Jam was a lot of things, but ungrateful wasn't one of them.. Most, well, some of the time. ![]() Thunk. ![]() A mischevious gleam in Baldhead's eye as he noticed two instead of one. Reaching back for his surgical utensils did he look them over, not being able to tell the difference between the good and the bad. Both had blonde hair. Both had the Union Jack get-up. Both. Had. MAJOR. ACCENTS! ![]() Every storm has an eye, and right now the eye was either Faust or Anji, and one thinks Anji ought to have the title since he's not prone to throwing explosives. He tore his attention away from studying the weird and puzzling changes that'd taken place in Sol since the tournaments and refocused it the new storm front: Axl. ![]() I-no looked up to Bad Axl and raised an eyebrow. She stood up and walked over, her sultry steps were deep and fluid. She looked at him with those fierce eyes and placed a hand on her hip. ![]() Jam smirked at Faust, "Of course you do." For the time being, the baghead was one of the few people on her good list, and until she had gotten more compliments on her cooking, everyone else would stay on her 'Never cook for them again' list. The same goes for the people who kept walking through her kitchen. She had let it slide when the woman with the funny hat had gone through, but now the British man was in there screwing around with something. Jam had had it. She marched back into her kitchen, shoved Axl out, bag & all, then quickly slammed the door shut. Now she could eat in peace. ![]() He opened his eyes as the tray thunked down against the table before him, sitting up in his chair as if a returning tension in his muscles was suddenly drawing him in from the half-sprawl he'd fallen into. He eyed the meat in such a manner that a bystander would nearly leap to the conclusion that he was going to set into it in some utterly bestial fashion before picking up the fork and knife set out previously for the now departed Chipp. It was a massive chunk of meat to attack with such small utensils, but success was all measured in angle and pressure, and Sol, as a swordsman, had in long practice keened a sense for that. If he thought he owed Jam any thanks, he must have thought Faust covered it. (Actually, in fact, he didn't think he owed Jam any thanks at all. Just owed her money.) ![]() In the kitchen creepy-crawly ![]() Penguin-pace obviously didn't take the mini-Faust far, because I-no had gone and come back with a bag of snacks and all it could manage to do was bump into her, and BAM! bai, Faust no chibi.. ![]() I-no walked it, shutting the door behind herself. She had a huge brown paper bag full of snacks. Someone could think that she was smoking something by the amount of things she had. She walked by all of them, into the kitchen, a Frito hanging from the side of her mouth, minding her own business. ![]() Jam once again made her way towards the tables, trays in hand. Luckily she hadn't been in the room to hear Anji & Sol's conversation, or she would've had a few words for both of the men and they definately wouldn't be getting any of the next dish. Jam of course was oblivious to anything that had went on, and she proceeded to slide the trays down onto the table. "For dessert we have moon cakes!" The final course was a little late, but still on the table all the same. Jam then dropped a tray down in front of Sol, with the ham he had apparently wanted. She wasn't about to cook it after he had touched it. ![]() Finally finishing to arrange his materials, he closed the kit and set it off to the side as he closed up his umbrella again, and set it by his scalpel. "Nemui nyooo..." x_X He stated, and stretched out a bit before noticing that the one-minute-I-no was leaving. A hidden smirk, he threw a random object up into the air again, only to watch an extremely chibi Faust about the size of one's hand coming down with a blue balloon, running after the date-rapist at a Penguin-pace. Nyeh heh... what a cute, disturbing munchkin. ![]() "She goes too far, I'll kick 'er ass." His gazed drifted from Anji's as if he'd suddenly lost intrest in the conversation, and his eyelids quietly drooped shut. He sat there in silence. Hard to tell if he was gonna doze off. Then he cracked an eye, a slit of ochre tinted brown. "After I eat." ![]() I-no decided to go off. Footsteps played softly among the floor, pattering as she walked towards the exit. She might as well go out for a while, seeing that she wasn't needed. She let out a sigh and decided she'd come back for a while later. Why not go out and break a few hearts? She smiled seductively to herself and thought.. ![]() Anji-Mito had yet to gush about anything, be it like a schoolgirl or not. Maybe his perfect delight in concentrating his attention on each of these players one at a time made it seem that way. He tilted his head to the side a little, lifting his eyes from Sol's bi-coloured stare and found something that didn't exist to examine while he spoke. "I apologize if you're not and I jumped to conclusions." And then he turned his smiling stare back to the Gear as he pointed out. "You just didn't seem like the type to cuddle up to a woman for something you wanted." You see, Anji pays for his meals and avoids having to kiss Jam's knuckles when he wants to enjoy her cooking. ![]() Ky sighed in relief when he fed Chipp the last of the beef teriyaki. All done. However even after he had removed his shirt he had still been subjected to some bits of beef that hadn't made it into Chipp's mouth and then, of course, there was the soup on him from earlier. Looked like Chipp had gotten some of the food on him too. Well there was only one thing Ky could do and that was to take a shower. Leaving Chipp murmuring to himself on the bed, Ky grabbed a towel from the chest and walked into the bathroom. ![]() He tilted his head to the side as he reached up to scratch his shoulder, his gaze remaining even against the dancer's. Wasn't quite sure what to make of this, Anji like a gushy sixteen year girl, and him not much for dealing with those (the fact that he'd seen a few of them over the years gave him a general enough frame of refrence). The mild suprise for the nature of the response didn't necessarily plug a stopper in the underlying agression, but at least it seemed to mellow it. "Oh yeah?" The words drawled slow, still settled in that langour. He didn't seem real impressed with Anji's so-obvious astuteness. The response remained utterly lacking in subtextual emotion and came together to the impression that he'd done no more than grunt again, syllabically. ![]() Faust had such a way with needles that Anji was going to, now and forever, keep his body as far as was possible away from the doctor. Only when Faust settled and was calm again did Anji's bemused black gaze turn to Sol. ![]() He kept his eyes quietly on Faust while the doctor went through his boisterously entergetic organizational routine. He let a moment pass. Two. And then his gaze slowly slid over to fix the smug sitting sports fanatic with a gauging, level glare. He hadn't let Jam push him around without getting his hackles raised. He'd just chosen not to act on it. And now, with his eyes, he was looking clear enough to see if Anji was going t' make anything of it, though his posture remained real loose. There was enough time before the food got there to knock somebody senseless. ![]() "Mi, a name, I call myself! Fa, a longlong way to ruuuuuunnnn---- IIIIIITTTTTAAAAAAIIIIII!!!!!" As he had almost finished arranging his prized surgical tools, what he'd shouted sounded more like a guttering animal cry as Faust jumped up to full 9'4" height with one of the needles pricked in his finger, often used to give shots. A swift flick of his hand and it was sent flying out to smack with a "ping!" on the floor, few drops of blood clinging to it. Instantly, he resumed sitting position, rummaged through the once-organised first-aid kit, and pulled out... a band-aid! ^ ^ "YATTA!" ![]() Apparently, for good food, Sol could let a lot slide. ![]() He let himself be shoo'd, rumbling wordlessly as she shoved him fowards. He returned to the table to draw out the chair he'd settled himself in before and taking his seat. Though he seemed as relaxed as before, his eyes flickered with a heightened alertness. But he was getting food, good food. For good food you could let a little slide. ![]() "Fine." Jam was in an unusually giving mood, or else she was just greedy and couldn't stand losing a paying customer. Either way, Sol was going to get his food, but she wasn't too happy about it. "Now get out!" She shoved Sol back into the other room, giving him one last glare before turning around to cook his meal. This fight was far from over though. >_< ![]() ...then he had no shirt on. He didn't seem to understand. Okay. He supposed he could deal. Oh! He perked, there was a spoon coming toward him by a pretty girl-like creature. Okay. Cool. He opened his mouth. Num. Food = good. Food was almost as good as the world around him. He grinned lazily. The world was good, he was being fed. Everything was amazing. ![]() Axl Low usually had a habit of disappearing randomly, so when he wasn't seen, sometimes it was expected. ![]() He rose up to his full height... but it turned out he was doing that so he could reach up to crack his neck to the side. His eyes remained upon the defiant chef, still narrowed slightly. "Make something then. 'm hungry." ![]() Jam practically snorted at the man's retort. "You're paying for the food that I cook for you. That doesn't mean you can go and raid my kitchen, ESPECIALLY without bothering to ask first." Jam finally released his ear, but continued to stand in front of the fridge, glaring at him. She wasn't about to back down, even if getting in Sol's face wasn't quite the smartest thing to do. ![]() His eyes rolled to the side, narrowing measuredly as he watched her in the peripheral. It was for the better that not many people dared to yank Sol Badguy around by the ear. There weren't any immidiate retaliatory measures. "I'm payin'." ![]() |

_____________archives ![]() Baiken :: played by Haruka
A spirited woman and a devoted martial artist.
Her femininity has been suppressed in the wake
of her supreme goal. Gets in fights over tiny
matters; shoots first and asks questions later.
Holds her beliefs firmly, and will argue with
anyone who disagrees with her to the bitter end.
At the same time, though, she is capable of
changing her mind if she's obviously wrong.
![]() Ky Kiske :: played by Inuki
Deadly serious, honest in work, truthful with others and devout in his morals. A firm believer in justice, eternally trying to help those weaker than himself. At the same time, he possesses a fragile mind that quickly erupts when he encounters anyone who breaks his rules or disrupts his order. In other words, he has a hard time dealing with freedom, a fact he has yet to realize. ![]() Jam Kuradoberi :: played by Amie
Annoying, self-centered, conceited and every bit a sore loser. Treats herself with kid gloves, but rains down hatred upon anyone weaker or more indecisive than her. (Rock stars, though, are excepted from this.) Although she may seem hung up on all the ideals she holds dear, she is actually a stark realist, able to look at things from a more ironic perspective. She uses this to hide her true self from others. Her singular battle style is a result of harsh observation and a strong belief that her way, and only her way, is the best. ![]() Faust/Dr.Baldhead :: played by Mariko
He was regarded as the finest physician in more than a hundred years. With a gentle personality and deft surgical skill, the doctor was respected thoughout the world. One day, however, a girl under his care died mysteriously during surgery. Some said the girl's death was orchestrated by jealous colleagues, but the shock drove the doctor mad. He embarked on a violent serial-killing spree and murdered an untold number of people before finally being captured... ![]() I-no :: played by Minoru
A mysterious woman whose identity is unknown, I-no talks to men with words of temptations that no man can resist, and laughs in her heart as she enjoys watching their reactions. I-no will poke her face into anything or anywhere she has interest in. ![]() Anji Mito :: played by AJ
Just as his fighting style is smooth and dancelike, his actions are dictated more by feeling than by logic. His character is a combination of movement and silence. A straightforward man, he worries little of future consequences before acting-not because of optimism, but simply because he rarely thinks things through enough. Has little sense of justice, but isn't hung up about fighting against what rubs him. Enjoys playfully needling people as a way to seem friendly. ![]() Millia Rage :: played by Sharde ![]() Axl Low :: played by Pineapple ![]() Chipp Zanuff :: played by Roni ![]() Sol Badguy :: played by Calico Kat ![]() Zato 1 :: played by Erin
