Itsuki Kaede Some Nights I Stay Up Cashing in My Bad LuckSome Nights I Call it a DrawItsu made his way down the nearly empty streets. The sky was a gloomy grey and the earthy smell given off just before it rains was floating in the air, filling his nostrils. He always loved the smell just before it rains. With his left hand shoved in his pants pocket and his right holding a long, lit cigarette, he looked up to the gloomy sky, stopping himself from walking any further. He brought his right hand to his mouth and took a long drag from his cigarette, the lit end glowing brightly as he sucked the smoke into his lungs. He held it in for a few seconds before letting the smoke out slowly, it swirling up into the sky before disappearing. He squinted his eyes slightly to see if he could still catch some of the smoke swirling away into the night sky before looking back in front of him and continuing to walk down the street. He was on a mission. To get noodles for dinner. He had a horrible case of procrastination when it came to getting things, and just about everything else. His pantry had been empty for the past few days and it was time to restock. He wasn't going to buy much once he got to the store, just enough for a few days until he found the energy to go out again and buy more. This type of behavior was completely normal for him. He kicked a small pebble with his overwhelmingly artificial "foot" that was covered by his red and white converses. It skipped a few feet ahead of him and when he caught up with it he kicked it again. He was completely focused on getting that little rock to the store with him. Before he could look to see where he was going, he ran straight into someone, knocking him off balance and knocking the other person right on their ass. " Shit." He mumbled as he regained his balance after stumbling backwards. He checked his right hand to make sure his cigarette was still in his hand, let alone if it was still lit. After he confirmed that, yes, the cigarette was safely in between his index and middle fingers, he looked down at the other person, offering his hand out to help them up. " Sorry about that. I wasn't paying attention." He spoke in a slightly raspy voice, the worlds coming out his mouth slowly and slightly monotone.

Figures dancing gracefully Across my memory Things my heart used to know Things it yearns to remember... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She had been wandering around the marketplace all day, just to wander. Her parents had given her money, and though they knew she was naive, they still wanted her to have her freedom, after all she was planning to move out soon, either to the dorms-where he really was supposed to be- or an apartment, depending. Winterlynn hadn't spent much of the money she had been given, only buying some simple trinkets to decorate her room. She smiled as her feet slapped onto the pavement, glad that she hadn't worn shoes or socks. Some people thought that she forgot, but she never really did, that was one of the few things she always remembered.
Humming as she looked around at the stands she heard her stomach growl and poked it. "Oh hush you," she muttered. Her attention turned back to the stands and she began thinking about what she could make, well what she knew she could make without burning the house down. The simplest thing was noodles with Alfredo, grilled chicken and broccoli.
She hadn't been paying attention, too busy with finding a shop that had noodles, and a stand that would have fresh vegetables, so when she fell to the ground fro walking into someone she frowned. Turning her attention to the person. She blinked as she stared at the hand held out to her and was about to reach out for it when her right arm froze up. Cursing her bad luck she sighed and grabbed the hand awkwardly with her left hand, making sure the bag she was carrying was on her wrist. "I was looking for noodles," she stated like the boy hadn't said anything at all to her.
It was normal. She knew he said something to her, but didn't think anything was needed to say back, or she just couldn't think of something to respond with. It was difficult at some times, especially since most people these days were cruel. It also didn't help that she was naive and trusted people so easily. "I can't remember where the shop is..." she said looking at the stranger with wide innocent doe eyes.

Itsuki Kaede Some Nights I Stay Up Cashing in My Bad LuckSome Nights I Call it a Draw Itsuki gripped her hand firmly and easily helped the small girl up. Man, she was pretty. He looked her up and down carefully. Her hair was almost as long as she was and her shirt was hanging off her shoulders, exposing them for all to see. He was sure it wasn't like that on purpose. Or maybe it was. He never could understand fashion. All he needed was his shirt, jacket, pants, and shoes. And his boxers but that was irrelevant. His eyes traveled down to her bare feet. Wait. Bare feet? Interesting. Sometimes he wished he could walk around bare footed without being stared at or without making so much noise when his prosthetics hit the ground.
He nodded after she spoke and replied after lifting his right hand to his mouth, sucking smoke into his lungs and blowing the smoke upwards in order to not get it in the girl's face. Gotta be polite. "I'm getting noodles too." He responded with very little enthusiasm. He hadn't really thought of what kind of noodles he would get. Something easy. Probably ramen. That is about as easy as you can get. Just let the water boil, put the noodles in, put the seasoning in, let it cook, and done; his kind of meal.
He shifted his weight from one leg to another and stared at her, observing her body language and her facial movements. She was a strange one. When she looked up at him he almost stopped breathing. Those eyes. Oh man. He rubbed the back of his head with the hand that held his cigarette and looked around to see if anyone was around. He looked back down at her, she barely even reached his chest. "I can show you. My name is Kaede Itsuki, by the way." Coming from Japan, he automatically put his last name first. He didn't have much of an accent though. He never really picked up on it. He spoke perfect japanese when it cam down to it though. He stared back at her, his pink eyes shining in the light from the nearby lamp post and his black hair resting on his forehead.

He was tall, she realized this after he had finished picking her up. It made her wonder if the air was thinner up where he was, but she dismissed the thought immediately, only to have it come back again. Her blue eyes watched him look her over and she stood there wondering what he was doing exactly. She wiggled her toes as he finished and shrugged off his once over. She didn't understand people sometimes.
Winterlynn smiled at him and nodded. "Alfredo with grilled chicken and broccoli for me," she said sticking her tongue out and then frowning. She pressed a finger to her cheek and thought for a moment. What else? Something was missing. Dinner, oh, dessert! Wasn't that the original reason she came out? She couldn't remember, but she thought she had mentioned something about it to her parents. "Brownies!" She exclaimed as she remembered what she was supposed to be getting supplies for.
When he introduced himself she tilted her head. He had an odd name that was certain. She completely ignored the fact that he had offered to show her how to get to the store. "Kaede is a silly name!" she said, not remembering to introduce herself.
Bright blue eyes caught pink and she tilted her head. The temptation to reach out and poke the boys eye to see if they were really pink or not was great, but she resisted-plus her right arm was still being a jerk and not responding to her commands. Her mother had also drilled into her head-again- that it was impolite to poke someone.
"Winterlynn," she stated coming out of her thoughts and giving him her name. She had problems talking to people, but she was hungry and couldn't remember how to get to the stop so she figured talking to this stranger was alright, so long as he helped her on his mission.

Itsuki Kaede Some Nights I Stay Up Cashing in My Bad LuckSome Nights I Call it a Draw He nodded once again at her as if he was a waiter at a restaurant taking an order from her. He watched as she poked her own cheek in thought. She was so innocent. A small smile peeked through his otherwise blank face. "Okay, we can get brownie's too. Mix or pre-made?" He asked tilting his head slightly as he spoke. Her way of thinking must have been strange to a normal person. He wondered if he could see inside her mind what it would look like.
Unfortunately, he couldn't peek inside her mind but he could take a peek at her soul. He squinted his eyes slightly, focusing in on her soul and saw a happy looking, pink weapon soul with a bandage on it's head. A severe head injury maybe? He lost his legs. Maybe she lost her mind. Looks like that's one thing they have in common, besides for being out late at night to get food. He wondered why she was out getting food so late anyways, but that didn't really bother him enough to make him ask. He just pushed it aside. No need to worry about things you don't need to worry about. Extra stress and even a little stress is enough for him. She didn't really stress him out though. She...put a sort of ease in his heart. This was strange. No one ever really made him feel like that. He usually didn't like talking to people for prolonged amounts of time but he felt like he could talk to her for hours and not even care that he was talking to someone. He'd met many weapons before but he never had this reaction to one before. This confused him a bit, but once again, he shoved that to the side.
A small chuckle escaped his lips when he realized she thought his first name was Kaede. He quickly composed himself and took another long drag from his cigarette before flicking the ashes off the end and blowing the smoke slowly out of his nose. "My first name is Itsuki. You can call me Itsu or Tree if that's easier for you." He took his other hand out of his pocket. It was warm. A bit warmer than it was outside. He lifted his hand slightly and placed it on her head gently, rotating his hand from side to side a little, making sure not to mess up her hair, before removing it from her head and placing it back into his pocket. He waited for her to say her name and when she did he nodded. "Want me to help you shop?" He asked, not much emotion in his voice. He looked forward towards where the shore was and then back at Winter. Some Nights I Wish that My Lips Could Build a CastleTAGS: Winterlynn~ OUTFIT: In the pic OTHER: Sorry that took so long.

Mix or pre-made? That was no fun, half the work was done for her and she was trying to practice remembering things, so neither was the answer. She frowned and rocked back and forth on her feet before switching the bag to her right hand. Her arm had responded thankfully and she was grateful that it didn't listen to the first command of reaching out to grab a hand. That would have been strange. "I only need umm...eggs? and cocoa?" she questioned trying to remember if those were the two items she needed to make the brownies, or if it was something else. "Yeah...those sound right," she muttered to herself, like the boy wasn't even there with her.
Her blue eyes watched, transfixed at the smoke coming out of his nose and didn't respond to his correction, and the nicknames he gave. She watched as the smoke thinned and then disappeared with the wind. "Itsu-kun," she muttered under her breath to remember the name.
She knew that in-formalities from Japan were usually only used between close friends, but it was easier for her to remember some names, especially since she had read a lot of books where the informal term was used more often than the formal. "Oh! Shopping right!" she exclaimed bouncing on her heels enjoying the cool ground beneath her. "I still have no clue where it is," she announced in a sing song voice, almost like a child teasing an adult.
Winterlynn looked around, seeing shops closing up and knew that she wasn't likely to get insanely fresh broccoli now that it was getting late. She pouted and crossed her arms. If the store didn't have any broccoli then she would have to think of something else, hopefully she didn't though, it always gave her a headache.

Itsuki Kaede Some Nights I Stay Up Cashing in My Bad LuckSome Nights I Call it a Draw He smiled slightly and patted her head again. She was like a little kid. She was growing on him and growing fast. He never felt this way before. Wanting to be friends with someone so bad. He felt warm inside when he was with her. Happy. Like nothing really mattered besides for her. He had only just learned her name. Why did he feel like this? Is this how it feels to meet your soul mate or something? "Come on. I'll take you." He said, walking forward a few steps and turning back around, looking at her and tasking another drag from his cigarette. He wanted to ask her the ultimate question.
He didn't know how to ask. How do you even ask something like that? What if she already had a meister partner. That would be so embarrassing. Why doesn't even bother him? Why would being turned down affect him so much? He usually wouldn't care.
As they walked would the street towards the store, he glanced at her several times nervously. he had opened his mouth to speak a few times but nothing ever came out. Why did this bother him so much? Finally he opened his mouth and something came out, "Do you have a Meister? If not..you wanna be my weapon?" He asked calmly. His voice smooth and calming and slightly raspy. He looked forward and took one last drag from his cigarette before putting it out on the sole of his shoe and flicking it into the street and lighting another one.Some Nights I Wish that My Lips Could Build a CastleTAGS: Winterlynn~ OUTFIT: In main pic OTHER: Ugh sorry again >.< Writer's block WORDS: 258This template was made by esa of RPG-D Lyrics by Fun.

At the second pat to the head she couldn't help put close one eye and make a small 'o' with her mouth. Not many people ventured to touch her, that included her parents, so she wasn't used to this kind of contact...not that she minded. At the mention of being brought to the store she smiled widely and followed behind him, unable to keep up with his pace. She didn't mind following him, he was bringing her to the shop after all and this gave her some time to ponder over things.
Winterlynn skipped a couple steps to catch up next to him and relaxed. The nervous feelings from the boy next to her going way over her head. She saw him taking glances at her, but she figured that it was just something he did, like her not responding at the right time. It confused people and usually they almost have heart attacks worrying-which she only knew because she was told. Looking at the ground she noticed that some of the stones were different colors. With her tongue sticking out she focused on jumping from one of the lighter colored stones to another, avoiding the dark ones.
She had just landed on a stone when he asked her the questions. It made her stop and look at him in surprise. She hadn't been asked to be someone's partner ever. They found out about her 'little' problem and then were gone. Being asked only made her curious. "Huh," she said rubbing her head.
Maybe he didn't have that thing...the soul perception and couldn't see her soul and what it looked like. She had a blank face and her eyes dulled as she thought about what to say. Oh sure she didn't usually think that much into things, but this was a question to take into consideration. "Well here's the thing. I have several scars, both mental and physical, they're about equal so it works out, having a few of one and not the other would just be weird," She began rocking on her feet. "But if you can get past that I see no problem,"
She smiled at him and held her bag in both hands so that they were linked in front of her, some would probably see her as crazy, since she was smiling and talking about a sad subject. But she wasn't all that depressed about it, then again the doctors did say something about her personality being damaged. She didn't know since she really couldn't remember.

Itsuki Kaede Some Nights I Stay Up Cashing in My Bad LuckSome Nights I Call it a Draw Itsuki stopped walking a few steps in front of Winterlynn and turned around, his eyes fixated on the girl. He listened to her reply carefully and smiled wide, his eyes closing from smiling so wide. So maybe that was what the bandage on her soul was. He didn't mind. He had his share of mental and physical scars, so he wasn't one to judge on the topic. He opened his eyes and looked directly at her, still smiling. "Me too, Snowflake." He spoke reassuringly, smiling one more before looking down at his legs.
He frowned and looked back up at her. "I lost my legs from the shin down." He spoke softly, not happy about his lack of legs. It still hurt him, even after all these years. He still had vivid dreams about crashing into that Kishin, watching his father be devoured, and looking at his legs, bloody and not being able to move his toes or his feet. Scarey stuff. He sometimes still felt pain where his feet would have been. Phantom pains. It wasn't the lack of legs that bothered him. It was what his lack of legs reminded him of, losing his father.
He quickly recomposed himself and looked back up at Winter, smiling again, but his eyes dull from recently thinking about his accident. "I guess that makes us partners, now does it." He spoke with a slight smugness and a small smirk on his face. "Come on, let's get you're food." He then soon turned back around and made his way down the sidewalk again, specifically stepping on the darker stones. It was silly but it helped with his balance and precision in his legs.

Winterlynn smiled at his nickname for her, it'd been a while since anyone called her that, so it was nice. It wasn't the kind of smile that reached her eyes though, because it did register in her head that he also had some scars. The fair haired girl listened intently, though she was certain that she wouldn't remember all of this encounter, and let her eyes drift down to his legs. She wondered how he'd lost them, but wasn't going to ask, it was rude.
Her blue eyes met his pink and she smiled. "I suppose?" she questioned confused.
She wasn't sure how these things worked really. She hadn't been paying attention to class and how picking a partner worked. Was it really that simple to get a partner? And what would they have to do now? It confused her, but she decided not to worry over it, the headache wasn't worth it. "Yeah food," she whispered before watching him turn around again.
Winterlynn tilted her head and watched him for a moment before doing something spontaneous. She ran and jumped onto his back, not know if they'd fall or not-not that she cared at the moment- and wrapped her legs around his waist and her arms lightly around his neck. The realization setting in of what had just transpired settling in her head. She had a partner. It had to be a dream, it just had to, even though her dreams usually turned out fuzzy and strange, there was no way this was real. "Thank you," She whispered resting her head on her shoulder.

Itsuki Kaede Some Nights I Stay Up Cashing in My Bad LuckSome Nights I Call it a Draw Itsuki smiled warmly when she hopped on his back. He quickly reacted by placing his foot sturdily in front of him to press all his weight on. His arms wrapped around her legs and he gripped on firmly. Her legs were soft and her body was warm against his. He liked this. He was one for casual contact so this was nice to him. He may seem cold and unattached but he really seeks comfort and friendly contact. From this point on, he wouldn't let anything bad happen to this girl. If she was in trouble, he'd be there to protect her. He'll always have her back. HE had a soft spot for cute things and things that have a hard time defending themselves.
His insides were warm and fuzzy and when she whispered in his ear, he couldn't help but let out a small chuckle. Before moving a single step he replied to her, "Of course." His voice was quiet so that only she could hear it. He lifted his other foot off the ground and continued walking with her clinging to his back. Thoughts were running through his mind like what were they gonna do to make it completely official. He'd check in with the front office in the next morning and get the information he needed. It was going to be a pain in the ass, but it would be worth it. He could feel her heart beat a little harder while she was wrapped around him, same with his. Meeting your weapon must feel like this, almost magical. He disposed of his cigarette by flicking it out into the street and placed his hand back on her leg. He continued towards the store. They should be getting close. Almost there. His legs made a slight creaking noise with every step he took from the extra weight added on. No bother, it was a normal thing.
He could feel his pet snake moving around in his pocket. She always was curious. Maybe she was getting restless. He looked down and say her little black nose poke out of his jacket pocket and her head soon after. She carefully made her way onto Winter's thigh, making sure not to cause any trouble. She was such a gentle girl. Itsuki watched as she slithered, her white body showing her black spot and black tail, delicately up Winny's leg and gently touch Itsu's wrist, making sure it was him. She gently touched his skin with her tongue and then made her way up his wrist, her mostly white body comfortably wrapping around his forearm. She didn't want any trouble, she just wanted to cling onto something. She tightened her body around his forearm, under his jacket sleeve and against his skin, making sure she wouldn't fall off.
He hadn't had her long, but they clicked instantly. He was there when she hatched and was the first to touch her. He loved this snake like a child. He took her wherever he went, so she got a lot of human interaction and was pretty used to it by now. She had only hissed once in her short life. She had never bitten him because he never gave him a reason to. He knew when she was annoyed and when she was he'd put her in his pocket or let her slither into his hood. She basically had free range all over his body.
He had lost track of time and when he looked up, the sign for the shop was about 6 meters away from them. He repositioned Winter and casually walked into the store like a tall gut giving a small girl a piggy back ride was completely normal. He rotated his head slightly and smoke casually to Winterlynn. "Here." He grabbed a dull blue basket with a black, metallic handle and walked through the aisles, carefully picking up the items both he and she needed. "Want anything else?" He asked her, rotating his head again to speak to her. He had a feeling this sort of thing would become a normal thing for them.Some Nights I Wish that My Lips Could Build a CastleTAGS: Winterlynn~ OUTFIT: In main pic OTHER: Ahhhhh so cute~ OooOOOooo~ wooow~ a long one comes from Marcus~ WORDS: 684This template was made by esa of RPG-D Lyrics by Fun.
