You can't not bring her. She's always there.

[swellter]

She’s not always there.

[ after a moment ]

Is that a yes?

[burnitblack]

[ that's a long, silent sigh ]

Yes.

[swellter]

[ As if those sighs do anything against a brick wall. ]

Will Wolf be there?

[burnitblack]

[ he should know by now if touya really doesn't want something, it won't happen. period. ]

Ya know our omens are 'part' of us, right?

[swellter]

I know.

[ He answers, pressing on. ]

Will he be there?

[burnitblack]

Shouto, ya startin to piss me off.

[There's such a thing as taking context clues and the obvious reminders Touya's dropping. He doesn't have to answer every obvious question.

... unless.]

Is there a reason ya don't want our omens there?

[Touya sounds curious, some of that ire pausing for a bit, like a candle flame going still.]

[swellter]

[ There's a pause at that and he takes a moment for himself before looking up at him, face perfectly neutral. ]

What did I do?

[burnitblack]

[why is he not surprised?]

Ya bein dense. Gonna answer that or not?

[swellter]

My density hasn't changed.

[ He's sure of it. As for the question - ]

I want our omens there. I want to get to know Wolf better.

[burnitblack]

Then just say that next time and stop askin so many questions.

[swellter]

[ Silent for a bit, he takes his words in stride and nods once. If you say so. ]

I want to know what we're doing tomorrow.

[burnitblack]

I already told you. Less than five minutes ago.

[he even invited him to go with him.]

[swellter]

[ ooc; oops completely lost context of this thread. ]

Beach combing. [ He remembers. ] I'll wait for you here at nine.

[burnitblack]

[ooc: i was having fun at your expense, haha.]

Ya sure you're gonna remember that?

[swellter]

[ooc; you bastard! >/ ]


I'll remember.

Tomorrow. Nine o'clock. We're having a family outing.

[burnitblack]

[ooc: guilty as charged ~ ]

Really. Don't need a reminder?

Had some memory troubles a moment ago. I wouldn't wanna get stood up.

[swellter]

I wouldn't stand you up.

[burnitblack]

If ya sure. 9 tomorrow then.

[swellter]

[ He nods and Kizu gets up from her spot near Wolf, heading in his direction. ]

Tomorrow.

[ She reaches him soon after and he looks to Touya, nodding at him once before heading out. ]

Don't be late.

[burnitblack]

[wolf rises as well and walks beside kizu until she's back by shouto, then branches off and returns to touya's side.

touya merely watches his younger brother as he confirms and turns away from him.]

Tomorrow then.

[he's definitely going to be early or late. not on time.]

[swellter]

[ Shouto will be precisely on time. Not one minute too early or one minute too late. Kizu is with him, roaming the beach at her leisure, while her Sleeper catches sight of his brother and hands him a card with all the confidence in the world. ]

[burnitblack]

[and touya will be late by a few minutes just because he wanted to sleep a little longer. dressed the same as always, breeze pulling his coattails out to the side. wolf walks by his flank and stops when touya does.

he takes the card and eyes it before giving shouto a slight look. really... but pockets it afterwards without saying anything about it.]

Didja eat already?

[swellter]

[ He blinks at the question, not quite the question he was expecting. You... you were supposed to ask for a favor. Why doesn't anyone ever ask for a favor? Looking a little pouty, he nods once, sulking. ]

I had breakfast.

[burnitblack]

[because he has no favors to ask for right now. and does shouto miss the fact he handed a villain a 10-favor card? dabi has no problem exploiting or manipulating his advantages to his favor.]

Good.

[with that, he heads off down the boardwalk to the black sand beach.]
