[There is a butterfly fluttering in lazy, drunken circles over the koi pond in one of the courtyards still convinced it isn't winter. It could be mistaken for a Tease if it wasn't white.]

[Tyki is sitting at the edge of the pond, relaxing with a cigarette and a bottle of vodka, directing the butterfly.]

Well here's a peaceful scene.

[casecard]

[Looks up at him from his spot.] ... Hopefully it stays that way. [Has the butterfly flutter closer by.]

[cardio_swindle]

You almost make that sound accusatory.

[casexcard]

Did I? It's just a comment. Things don't always stay peaceful when one of you comes around.

[cardio_swindle]

I suppose that's got some truth in it. [He glances at the butterfly but settles by the pond.]

[case_card]

[The butterfly is harmless enough right now. It's part of his Innocence, but he's just been amusing himself.]

[Looks faintly annoyed when he settles down, but says nothing on that.] I don't think we've met before, have we?

[cardio_swindle]

[He could sense it, but he's not going to comment. You make probably the third Exorcist Tyki he's met so far, it's a little disconcerting. Who knows how many others he hasn't met?]

[If he catches the annoyance he ignores it.] Don't believe so, but I doubt we need introductions, right?

[casecard]

[This guy will never quite be comfortable with Noah versions around, himself. He takes another drink from his bottle of vodka.]

Not unless you're radically different from the rest. Which could be a refreshing change. Ah, well.

[cardio_swindle]

[By the very nature of Innocence Tyki can't be entirely comfortable around Exorcists, so it's fair? He taps a cigarette out and lights it, watching the water.]

Probably not all that different, sad to say. Takes a bit of the charm out of being me, really.

[casecard]

[Fair enough, certainly. Koi are swimming beneath the surface of the water. The butterfly starts to follow one from above, albeit not very well.]

Seeing your own face outside of the mirror does tend to get old.

[cardio_swindle]

[He watches the butterfly, leaning back on a hand and tapping a bit of ash into the water, catching the koi's attention.]

Something like that. Strangely enough, it's the stories that stay interesting. You'd think there'd be a limit--or maybe I haven't reached it yet.

[casecard]

[The koi come to investigate, in case the ash was something edible. Too bad for them.]

Is that so? A limit to the stories, or a limit to how interesting you find them?

[cardio_swindle]

[They're disappointed, but Tyki does dip a gloved finger in for them to mouth at. Could grab one to eat, but eh.]

Limit to both I suppose. What about you?

[casecard]

[The koi don't know how lucky they are.]

Hmm? [Takes a drag off his cigarette.] I haven't found things too boring yet, if that's what you mean.

[cardio_swindle]

[For now. Just wait little fish, just wait.]

That does beg the question, what does a bored Exorcist do?

[casexcard]

Same as anyone else, I suppose. This, for one.

((ooc: orz Forgot to ask -- is your guy in white form or black form?))
