13: Elusion [Action]

[invidia_keeper]

[For those who want to try to get Naoya for his part in Kohaku's death, this is the post. He's hiding out in the deeper parts of the forest, and he is fully expecting all those who tried to come after him before to come again-- he's especially on the look out for Patchoulie

This will totally go well or something

[ Hey look, it's another person in the forest! Will be approaching now. ]

Hello there!

lol i has no idea

[invidia_keeper]

[Looks up from his journal and shuts it, standing up. He has no idea who she is, and at the moment he's on the lookout.]

Yes?

[my_hands_stuck]

What are you doing here?

[invidia_keeper]

[He's maintaining distance from her if she tries to advance.]

Enjoying the scenery.

[my_hands_stuck]

[ She doesn't realize that he's moving away on purpose, so she keeps walking towards him somewhat slowly. ]

Oh, isn't it nice here? All these trees are so pretty.

[invidia_keeper]

Indeed.

We've never met. You are?

[He'll stop and climb atop a tree stump. He almost looks like he's sizing her up.]

[my_hands_stuck]

Me? I'm Grune... I think. [ She stops as well, a short distance from him. ]

[invidia_keeper]

You think?

[my_hands_stuck]

Does it seem wrong to you?

[invidia_keeper]

No. It's just different.

[He considers the situation for a moment. Based on everything that's happening, he could potentially use her.]

I'm Qayin. [Because he knows better than to give her "Naoya" right now. And that is one of his names after all.]

You come to the forest often?

[my_hands_stuck]

Oh, yes. It's so nice to have picnics here.

[invidia_keeper]

I prefer to just look at the foliage. [And by that he means take care of them.]

You came alone today?

[my_hands_stuck]

Alone... hmm, I can't seem to remember. Was I with someone? [ She glances around. ]

[invidia_keeper]

You don't seem to be.

...

Are you really that forgetful?

[my_hands_stuck]

Oh, well. I'm sure it doesn't matter.

[invidia_keeper]

[This face.]
