Night 41: M61-70 Hallway

Well, that was interesting. He'd just watched Lockdown being escorted out of the room by some of the staff. That meant one of two things, and he quite hoped it was the same as what it had been for him. A night of terrorizing meatbags was always fun, although HK did hope that if this was the case for Lockdown, the former droid would be able to ( Read more... )

Yukari Takeba - someone from Japan then, or at least a Japanese living outside Japan. Her uniform wasn't one that Mori recognized, however, meaning she was probably a commoner, or from a world he didn't know. Short skirts though. That seemed like it was the norm for school uniforms no matter what. Maybe whoever designed the skirts had one of those weird costume fetish things? Who knew. Mori didn't like to think about it.

Bowing his head again to Yukari, Mori looked back to Yuffie when she started to show him how to hold the shuriken. He relaxed his arm, which kind of made the weight a little harder to bear, but he had to in order to let her move his hand as she wanted. Yuffie had to be a teacher if just seeing him hold it was enough to set her off. At least she didn't do training like Chika and Mitsukuni did. He'd hate to get hit in the head again by this thing.

Once his hand was in the right position, he tested it and noticed that yes, indeed, it was easier to carry. Interesting. While shuriken and projectile weapons weren't his thing, he didn't mind learning about them. Nodding his thanks, he handed the weapon over to Yuffie and then looked back to Yukari. "Nice to meet you, too."

If only he knew just how much of a hard-ass Yuffie could be to her students. She nodded in satisfaction; the guy caught on quick. "Not bad! You're a fast learner." Grinning, she reached out to accept the shuriken -- "Holy--" Was it really that heavy? It… She… It was almost like she was a young teenager again, back when she'd first been getting to grips with the original version of the Four Point; it had felt heavy then, back before she'd really come into her own. And the new version weighed in at two kilograms more. Aww, man. Something that'd normally be nothing to her... It was really coming back to bite!

... Still.

It was her shuriken! Her baby, back in her arms again! Yuffie had almost flinched at the weight, her eyes wide with familiarity --just last night, with this shuriken, she'd-- no. This weapon, it'd served her well in the past, and even if she had her work cut out in readjusting herself to make it work for her, it'd be her strongest 'partner' here. She laughed; fully genuine for once, gleeful, and then she hugged the shuriken, spinning around in happy little circles. The steel was cold against her skin. Yukari and Mori were, for a moment, ignored.

If Yukari hadn't understood the feeling, she might have claimed Yuffie had finally lost it with a spectacle like that. Then again, she did backflip down the hall and then some completely unannounced, so maybe this wasn't the weirdest she could pull off after all.

In the meantime, after adjusting the bow slung over her shoulder again, Yukari just leaned back against the wall, giving Mori a sidelong glance. She didn't really have the heart to interrupt Yuffie's moment of bliss, and had no idea if he did or not either; but given how unspoken he was being, she guessed he wouldn't.

He'd spent his entire life training, so he'd learned to be a fast learner. He also had the hopes of his family resting on him, and Mitsukuni's safety. Under those conditions, anyone would learn quickly. It seemed that the shuriken really was as heavy as he thought it was because even Yuffie seemed surprised by it. Mori was thankful to have it out of his hands and rolled his good shoulder in time to see Yuffie spin around and--

Wait, did she really just spin around and hug her shuriken? Mori shot a questioning look over to Yukari, then looked back to Yuffie. Well, so long as she was happy, then he could leave well enough alone. She had her weapon back, Mori had a replacement and now he had met yet another girl at the Institute. Mitsukuni would have liked her - she was cute and still carried a weapon. Nice combination.

The moment went uninterrupted, but it couldn't last. Yuffie came to a stop after a few seconds, holding the shuriken via the balance ring. She didn't have anything to act as a harness here, so she'd have to make do until she could come up with some kind of substitute. "Okay, now that's out of the way." She inclined her head towards Mori. "You've probably got things to do, so we won't keep you. If you ever need anything, look me up, 'kay? Or, y'know, just to chat." Haha, irony.

It was gonna take some getting used to, this extra weight. There was no way that she'd be able to use it to it's full capabilities, and throwing it around like she would back home was so far out of the question that it might as well have tea parties in the Lifestream. With one last parting smile and a casual wave-salute, she started skipping off down the hallway, whistling cheerily as she went.
