[Kanda has been hiding, but he's out now! he's lying on a bench in a relatively silent courtyard, headphones on and hanging loosely behind his head. on the ground next to the bench is a small open tool box with nuts, bolts, and little screwdrivers in it. he's wearing his ATs, as usual, but he seems content to be stay where he is, listening to..

*Okay, this is new. Is Kanda meditating? No, he doesn't meditate like that.* Just like..?

[dechiqueter]

[this Kanda doesn't need to meditate. :> but he's still a bit startled when Allen suddenly shows up. he's relieved when he realizes it isn't his Allen, though]

Nothing, sprout.

[normalreally]

Oh- sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you. Um... What are you doing though?

[dechiqueter]

Was tuning my ATs, but I'm done now.

[Kanda isn't so rude as to leave Allen standing like that, so he'll sit up and occupy his half of the bench near the toolbox. he won't invite Allen to sit with him, of course, but he's welcome to take a seat]

[normal_really]

*Actually he's a little more interested in the tools and the ATs, he's never seen anything like this before* What do you mean by 'tuning'? How does that work?

[dechiqueter]

[well, that works too]

Tuning is to synchronize the body's rhythm with that of the ATs. It maximizes performance and keeps the regalia from breaking down.

[normal_really]

I've never heard of anything like that before... Do they take a lot of maintenance?

[dechiqueter]

Only if you don't want them to break down in the middle of a battle. Which is never a good thing.

[normalreally]

No, I'd imagine not.

[dechiqueter]

'Sides, regalias are priceless. You'd have to be an idiot to let one break down.

[normal_really]

Regalia? What's regalia?

[dechiqueter]

[...

lifts up his at and points to dangerous looking wheel] This is a regalia. Fancy wheels that manipulate the air to perform tricks, basically.

[normal_really]

*Inspecting the wheel, I remember you saying you killed people with these. Frooooown*

[dechiqueter]

[that isn't a good frown is it. :| sob]

Each King has their own regalia; how it's used is up to the individual.

[normalreally]

*It's a very very bad frown of disapproval.* You're a king?

[dechiquete]

[he's seen it before, but seeing it on Allen = D:]

Fang King of the Bloody Road. [that might be a hint of pride there]
