[So the kid gets things a lot better than Lucian thought. Doesn't change his mind in the slightest, but it makes him a little less annoyed by the preaching. The burning desire for revenge isn't what makes him respond, though.]
I'm obviously not going to lecture you, since that would be hypocritical and I hate people like that. I won't make you talk about this either if you don't want to. But I will make you an offer. You ever feel that kind of rage, or if that voice starts fucking around with your mind, you hunt me down and we'll fight till you feel better. Trust me, it'll help.
[At that he reaches up and pulls away his eye patch. If Naruto's expecting a scar or a missing eye he's dead wrong, because Lucian's left eye is uninjured and fully functional.
It's also bright crimson, plusing with an insane and bloodthirsty glow.]
You aren't the only one with a voice like that in your head.
((OOC: yeah, Lucian's left eye really is like that. The eye patch has a sigil inside it that keeps his power from going out of control and driving him insane.))

It was a dream. [He disregards some of that unfortunately, because it's not a voice he has in his head. Not exactly. It's a Kyuubi, and so the matter isn't always just about controlling himself. Unless this guy has a Sharingan he can't exactly help. Naruto doesn't know what that eye is, but it's not a Sharingan.
Still, that he offered is something of a surprise.] Can you fight? It's no good if you can't fight worth a damn.

Doesn't make it any easier to think about.
[What Lucian has isn't exactly a voice either. It's all that Dark Matter embedded in his body, temping him with more power in exchange for what humanity he has left. If this kid giving in to whatever's inside him is even remotely like what'll happen if Lucian caves, then it's something he wants to stop at all costs.] Wouldn't have offered if I couldn't, kid.

Doesn't mean I'm about to crack either. [Dryly. If he didn't break when she died, then he won't now. He has his willpower and he has the Dismas. Having a place that nullifies the Kyuubi's chakra is all he needs for the most part. A haven.]
Then prove it, shorty. [Well, he's not sure how tall Lucian is, but he looks young. So. Shorty it is.]
[Video | Private] this Naruto was aged up for scorched. So he's. Taller than canon. >.>couragetodareFebruary 22 2011, 01:25:33 UTC
You think so? [A quiet sound. It could be amused but it's really not. It doesn't show that either. The dream is just an example of past pain to Naruto. Better off unseen. That's it.]
The ruins. Just east of the docks. [Hah. So he can dish it out but he can't take it. Naruto grins.] One hour. Unless you're busy?
[Video | Private] I figured. I just thought it was amusing. Lucian's not gonna be happy though. ^_^lightofvengenceFebruary 22 2011, 01:48:11 UTC
If a dream can make you feel like that, even just in the confines of the dream, they're still your real feelings. [Even past pains can have future impacts. Lucian knows that all too well.]
[Video | Private] ... is he ever happy? XDcouragetodareFebruary 22 2011, 01:56:13 UTC
[Naruto just shakes his head. Real feelings or not, it still doesn't matter. But he's not going to pursue the subject. He has a feeling they'd talk in circles.]
[Video | Private] ...well at least they have one thing in common! \o/.couragetodareFebruary 22 2011, 02:29:30 UTC
[Thinking that Naruto is a 'normal' human might be his first mistake. Telling him that could be his second. Naruto just hums and nods. He's not going to toss out any extra information.]
Unarmed it is. I'll see you there. ... don't be late.
