For three days Kenpachi had lurked in hidden corners and darkened alleys, since abandoning his Shinigami bretheren with little more than a note and a backward glance. He'd learned the ins-and-outs of this little area in the meantime, from Paradisio Hotel to the north and the train station in the south. He was unsure as to whether or not he should just bite his tongue and go back to the familiarity of the Shinigami at the Morem o Lisboa, or continue to lurk around here

Tris squinted, trying to make out the fuzzy shape in the distance. The breeze crossed her face, and she let out a yelp, holding the image. Oddly enough, it had temporarily allowed her to get a good look at the figure upwind. The redhead didn't elbow her sister, didn't give off any clue of what she saw. Instead, she gave Daja a silent signal. He's got a sword. She had managed to tone down what she saw as far as magic went, but she could still see something. It wasn't exactly magic, but even with the brightness she saw scaled all the way down, it was eye-smarting.

Daja twirled her staff casually. So this kaq has a blade? You forget who you're standing next to, Tris. Tris rolled her eyes at Daja's statement, smiling a little. Well, there was always diplomac---

Both girls reached out after Chime at the same moment, but the glass dragon was intent on the large man before them. "CHIME!" Tris snapped, yanking a hanging lightning braid loose. In a practiced motion she had started using in Thairos, the weather-witch made a cage out of

Okay, so one was squinting, which meant she was likely as blind as a damned bat, and the other was swinging her staff like she knew how to use it. Kenpachi snorted. He wasn't feeling particularly vicious at the moment, and the trio didn't look to be worth his time. When the strange ...transparent thing came towards him, Kenpachi raised a brow, but made no move for his sword. The lightning cage made him grunt a bit, like he should be remembering something he'd heard about magic.

Cocking his head down at the held creature and the trio, the Shinigami shrugged. "I don't mind the whole curious thing ... matter of fact I'm feelin' a bit curious myself. Just what in the hell is that critter and why can I see through it?"

Tris snorted, and Daja snorted. "Tris, you want to explain Chime to him?" Daja asked. "...Briar, you alive back there?" the eldest of the trio glanced at Briar, raising an eyebrow. Tris groaned- she never really did like explaining Chime, but whatever.

"A glass dragon," Tris explained. "A magical construct with her own life." Chime trilled, aware that she was the center of the discussion. "She was made entirley of glass, last time I saw her."

"...She was glass back in Emelan, too, but I dunno what in Oti's name she is now." Daja frowned.

Tris made a face. "I'm Trisana, and this is my sister, Daja, and my brother, Briar." Tris eyed Kenpachi, heading closer. "And you are?" She had a headache, and it was growing steadily worse, but she was used to them.

Daja, meanwhile, was attempting to see if her brother was awake. "Hey, theif-boy. Are you awake?" Daja poked at her brother, an eyebrow raised.

Briar had simply been watching, keeping a reign on both his tongue and the instinct to draw blades. Without his shirt to hide some of them, it would be blatantly obvious that he had done so, if he had. Damn, he missed his sleeves right now!

The plant-mage yelped when Daja poked him. "No," he replied, "I'm sleeping. And I ain't really here, either."

Of course he was awake! Would he be standing here, otherwise? And no, don't answer that from Tris' perspective.

"Just because I ain't talking doesn't mean I ain't paying attention."

[OOC: Ow... the 'ain't's hurt my proper-English brain... But they fit better.]

Kenpachi blinked at their explanation of the glass thing. Naturally they had nothing of the sort back where he was from, but that didn't stop him from acting like he knew. "Ah. Right. Gotcha."

Like an old machine finally running smoothly, the recollection that had been tickling his brain at last slipped into place. Kenpachi motioned towards the redheaded-girl ... Trisana was it? with his chin. "I think you an' I talked before." With his right hand he withdrew the black journal, holding the slim box up in reference. "On this thing. 'm Kenpachi. The dead guy." He beamed a little with smug pride, pleased with himself for retaining the memory.
