[ The device turns on to show a rather dashing boy with freshly washed red hair, looking rather calm despite a few light bruises on his face and bandages showing on his arms. He’s sitting on the couch in what appears to be one of the Creeping Crypt apartments, a cup of iced green tea in hand. ]

I suppose I should apologize for the delayed

It's nice to meet you, Minamino-san, Hiei-san. My name is Katsuragi Yako. There are training sessions in the morning where you can practice with people and try to find partners.

[training? tell him more!] Every morning? Where is it located?
[apparently someone's trolling hasn't turned up with this training session, and he seems a bit perky about it. sorry, he kind of cuts right to the chase.]

[itaidakimasu]

Mhm! At six, at the training grounds near the park.

{Yako's used to abrupt people. And demons too but shhh.}

[he nods, as if accepting a mission.] Hm. I'll have to gauge what kind of fighters are left over, with this mission.

[no doubt the weak ones, since you now, those are the only people who stick around when there's a battle to be had. yup.]

video

[itaidakimasu]

Probably the neutral ones or those who haven't found a partner yet, I would think.

video

[imikojaganashi]

So the weak ones. Hn. Training might not be worth it until these others return, then.
[is that mild disappointment? basically. he huffs, leaning back where ever he's decided to lounge now.]

Our luck we'd arrive just in time to do nothing.

Re: video

[itaidakimasu]

That's a bit harsh, isn't it? I mean, fighters know better than to go in with a Weapon they can't use proficiently, right? Skill doesn't mean much if you can't Resonate enough to do much damage, right?

video

[imikojaganashi]

What the hell does that matter? [someone really wasn't paying attention on the tour, too busy either elbowing kurama to stay standing, or taking him to the clinic on his back.]

Weapons are not instruments, they're steel. Unless the enemies are metallic as well, there shouldn't be any resonant noise from anything.

[itaidakimasu]

...

I take it you missed the tour then. Okay, I might as well make this simple. Here, you're either a Meister, who weilds a Weapon, or a Weapon. I'm a Weapon.

{She sets her device down somewhere, still pointing at her, and closes her eyes. One moment there's a girl sitting on the couch, and the next, a seven-foot leather stock whip coiled there. And the same voice is coming from it.}

See?

[imikojaganashi]

I ended up carrying Shouchi - [and yes, the intonation on the name is on purpose, since using the fake name is irritating by itself.] - to the damn clinic.

[his head tips a little at the transformation, leaning forward a little.] Hm. Kurosawa said I was a Meister. [looking quite smug at that.]

video

[itaidakimasu]

Meisters cut down the kishin with us Weapons, then the Weapon you partner with eats its corrupted soul.

{And now it's just the girl again.}

So you should look for a Weapon you can use, and who you like. If you can't stand each other, getting a good wavelength between your souls will be difficult. At least, that's what I've gathered.

A pleasure to meet you, Katsuragi-san. I'll be certain to come. The training grounds were... near the park, if I recall correctly?

[itaidakimasu]

Yeah! They really help; I know what my form is now because of them.

[totalfox]

[ A smile; ] A belated congratulations, then. I can only hope they are as helpful in my adjustment to this world's fighting system.

[itaidakimasu]

Well, I can't do much until I find somebody who can use a whip, but thank you. I'm sure they will be.

[totalfox]

A whip? [ Hm... ] Perhaps I can attempt to wield you at the training grounds tomorrow, if you'll be there. I happen to have some experience using whips.
