[shenghuanzhe]

[The following is entirely in Al-Hebb, not Common.]

Where are my pistols? Who took my fucking sidearms? Captain Dorsadaf, where am I? Did I get fucking sold again? She said yes for the love of Tir--

Where the fuck are my pistols?!

Capitan Toka, are you there?

[[OOC: Kage's a teenager again! He speaks his home language and a variant of Chinese

Kage?

[Chase gets about... well, most of that, actually, though much of it isn't common vocabulary for him. He's a little rusty...]

[Not to mention this whole setup is quite wonky!]

Uuuh... Ch'hah jun?

[shenghuanzhe]

[Finally, someone else who speaks properly.]

Biq chetter. Ch'hah ji?

[talkback_stein]

[With a thick, thick American accent. But he tries.]

Hah'uk...

[Off to deck four he goes, and all that goes through his mind is that Kage doesn't fucking know who he is. He pauses a moment, thinking about his reply, but... Kage doesn't know, and he sounds young. He can cut the guy some slack for now.]

[Then he spends another long moment wondering what the fuck with the grammar.]

Hah'uk, uhhh... ch'iyyah? Ch'iyyah. Hah'uk ch'iyyah kital. Gangan?

[shenghuanzhe]

[What the fuck was that.

Some guy just slurred "I am having your comrade/friend. Okay?" at him and then hung up. Kage squints at the comm. Is everyone on this ship drunk or high? Did he wake up in the middle of a party?

Is that why he doesn't have his guns?

Was he high right now?

Kage squints and... no, he feels normal. Everyone else must be high. Strange.]

[talkback_stein]

[And off to deck four he goes, trusting that "I'm your friend" doesn't get lost in translation. Kage didn't exactly specify where on deck four, though, so he spends his time wandering the halls, and - occasionally - calling out for Kage.]

[shenghuanzhe]

[When he hears someone calling his name Kage cocks his head and then approaches the other man, who's tall, very well fed and incredibly blonde with blue eyes.

Woah.

Kage stares. This other man was incredibly handsome. No wonder he'd "had" some of Kage's comrades.]

[talkback_stein]

[Taking a look at ickle Kage almost makes Chase, now a grown man, shriek because it's so fucking funny. He laughs jovially, just drinking in the sight of a Kage he thinks he can totally knock around, and gestures for him to come closer.]

Kage! Ch'hah chah!

[...he can't tell you how funny he finds this.]

Kara kara kara - cherno'rattab'uk!

[shenghuanzhe]

[This guy is totally bonkers, but he is handsome as shit, and probably high.

But when someone that good looking says that he wants to see you, you'd best just trot on over--so Kage does, lips quirking in a smile. He speaks Al-Hebb.]

Do I know you, man?

[talkback_stein]

Not yet you don't--

[And then he attempts to pull Kage in for a noogie, with a laugh. This was so great.]

[shenghuanzhe]

[Woah, woah, woah.

Kage automatically dodges, dancing back and his eyes hardening. The smile drops off his face and he's on alert.]

Huh!

[talkback_stein]

[He smirks, then realises he'd dropped out of Al-Hebb.]

Oh!

[And realising how on edge, how tense this Kage is, makes him laugh again and grin. He considers the guy for a moment, and... yeah, he's decided in cutting the kid some slack. He thinks on the grammar some more;]

Ch'hah tal, naam? Hah'uk... uhhh. Kital hah'uk?

Ch'iyyah ta.

[I'm your friend. I'm your brother. He can't stop grinning, but offers a more sincere smile. Still smug, but what can you do?]

Ta'ta dolma, naam? Ch'iyyah chi'on ta'ta.

[Older brother now, yeah? I'm your annoying older brother.]

[shenghuanzhe]

[Well... okay. Kage narrows his eyes, but... well, this guy is handsome and he looks like he'd be decent in a fight. And he speaks Al-Hebb.

Kage relaxes a bit, dropping out of high alert and cautiously ambling back towards the blonde.]

Ch'hah ji, ta'ta?

[talkback_stein]

...Hah'uk Chase.

["Hound" is not a monicker the kid needs to hear.]

[He doesn't make any sudden movements, considering the teen - the joy slowly fading to contemplation, because for all his hostility, Kage is... strangely vulnerable. He quirks his head to the side, questioning in Al-Hebb;]

You afraid of me?

[shenghuanzhe]

[Kage responds in Al-Hebb, blinking.]

No. Should I be, elder-brother Chase? Are you my Capitan?

[Oh, please let him have such a hot Capitan. Oh, please, oh, please.]

[talkback_stein]

[He laughs again.]

Nope.

[And he looks at Kage, wondering if he should break the news to the guy.]

[shenghuanzhe]

[Kage drifts towards him a bit. The guy is comfortable in his presence, so Kage doesn't hide the attraction in his eyes. If Chase is interested as well, then fantastic. If not, then they'll just be friends.

Kage flashes him another flirtacious smile.]

Nope?
