The Devil's Going to Set me Free~

[lionhearrt]

Who: Mikoto and Any Poor Unfortunate Soul!

When: Month of July

Where: The FarShore

What: Mikoto makes house visits, brawls with ayakashi and kidnaps a lion cub.
Warnings: Fire(?) 

 

i. What are you waiting for?

[ For all you Gods and shinki's out there, guess who's at your temple door? It's a friendly caller! Honest! No one here looking for a murderer. Nope. That's not what he's doing at all. When the door opens, Mikoto will be standing at the door looking as bored as ever. ]

 

Are you going to let me in?

 

 

ii. Only Chains and Broken Bones

 

[ One moment you're minding your own business and the next there's an explosion of fire. Now you may be asking yourself - What the Hell was that?! - But don't worry, all will be revealed the moment a snake-like ayakashi comes crashing into the open followed by a man cloaked in red and white flames! The moment Mikoto hits the ground, he's racing past you, smashing his fists into the snake who meets him head on. The white flames keep healing the blight that comes from his direct attacks, one of which sends the ayakashi flying in your direction. Better to dodge that one. ]

 

iii. Ain't got no place to call a home

[ A King and a lion cub walk into a bar. Guess which one's wearing a collar? Think you got the answer yet? Was it: Neither? If so, congratulations! You are today's lucky winner!!!! So, what did you win?! Well, glad you asked! The answer: you're not getting mauled by either! Hooray, you! 

Mikoto walks into the bar and takes a seat, while the little lion cub follows behind him curling himself on the ground gnawing on a barstool leg as he orders himself a Wild Turkey and a steak - rare.  ]
 

 

iv. I saw my chance so I got him at last (Wildcard) 

 

[ Look the Devil in the Eye. ota. Make up your own scenario! I'm game for anything! ]

Comments

i! (Because she wants to know someone is doing something about this)

[darkestbefore]

Mikoto?

[ Yona peers at him in surprise, even though the gate to her temple is wide open, as it is most days. She glances back at it just to make sure before casting him a bright - if slightly confused -smile. ]

Well, I wasn't trying to stop you. Was there something you needed? Is everything alright? Izumo is okay, isn't he?

[lionhearrt]

Izumo's fine.

[darkestbefore]

[ Well, that answered.... one of those questions?

At least his answer has her looking a little more relieved. ]

Oh, good, I'm glad. Did you need something, Mikoto?

[lionhearrt]

Looking for someone.

[darkestbefore]

[ Pushing herself to her feet and leaving the work she'd been doing for the time being, she approaches him with a curious look. ]

Looking for someone here? Who?

[lionhearrt]

A murderer.

[darkestbefore]

[ Her mouth drops open in surprise because.... that had not been an answer she'd been expecting. ]

What? Here?!

[lionhearrt]

Know anyone?

[darkestbefore]

[ She gives a slow blink, because that's... a loaded question. ]

That depends on whose murderer you are looking for?

[lionhearrt]

Decapitation ring any bells?

[darkestbefore]

[ She pauses before shaking her head. Shizuo preferred using his fists, Jae-Ha his daggers, and that certainly wasn't really Hak's style either. ]

Not among those here. It wouldn't be their first choice. [ And she doesn't think it would have happened without one of them telling her.

Although after a moment, her gaze drops to the ground once more, eyes sliding closed for a moment. Her voice holds a note of sorrow. ]

This is about Johan, is it not?
