The Rogue Shinki
Who: Zero and Open.
What: Random
When: End of April
Where: Around
Warnings: None
i. The Bench
Surprisingly, the rogue shinki can often be seen occupying a bench in the park. He spends a lot of time in the Near Shore, feeling a pull to the world he no longer belongs in. He sits there for quite a while, watching the living go through their day. It relaxes him, allowing him to focus on something else aside from his lost memories.
When someone sits beside him, Zero turns to look at them when a ball unexpectedly hits his foot drawing his attention away from the newcomer and towards the toddler heading his way. Zero nudges the ball to him and the kid bends down, almost loses his balance, and picks it up before oh so carefully standing back up again. Those small eyes look up at him and Zero stares back wondering if he-- Someone calls the child's name and the toddler obediently turns around heading back to his play area.
"Do you think he saw...?"
ii. Learning Curves
A gust of wind brings the scent of blood in the air stopping him in his tracks. He stills and looks around.
"Who's there?"
Still unaware of his powers, he doesn't realize the source is far off from his location. So he follows the trail, thinking someone's injured nearby. He tracks the scent further until he can feel the pinpricks of pain shooting through the tattoo that mars his neck. He clutches his neck, but keeps moving. It's not so bad yet, and if someone really is---He catches the heartbeat of another close by and quickly veers off toward them before suddenly coming into their peripheral and--
"Are you bleeding?"
Hello stranger. He doesn't wait for a response before he's halfway to you.
iii. The Prayer
"I'm not your scratching post."
He's all glowers and a slanted mouth. Yet, he's carrying the cat with gentle ease, which the feline uses to its advantage in its next prison break but Zero knows her ploy by now and doesn't let go, which is when the cat employs a new tactic and suddenly switches from wiggling in his grasp like a snake to going utterly still and making a long crying noise. The sudden change has Zero immediately loosening his grip thinking he's hurt her which is when the kitty turns traitor and scratches him a third time before kicking out of his grasp and landing on the ground at a running pace.
