seventh trick (or lack thereof)

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[Ikki is limping, occasionally crawling toward Amaterasu's forest, clutching his thigh, which is bleeding pretty profusely from a sword stabbing. He really SHOULD pop off the plane and get himself to a hospital, but then people might start asking questions and&mdash this is a Parts War, after all, he can't just give up—

—unless of course he falls. It's becoming increasingly difficult to move and all. He staggers to his feet once more.]

Damn... cheating bastards...

[ooc: Sorry for the spam, but bleeding takes priority.]

Yup. When they're not kicking my ass.

Is that normal? Ah, I mean, I don't really do things like that, but...well, it's not like I'm very normal.

My household was pretty fuckin' strange. Never knew my parents. They gave me to the Noyamano sisters when I was just a baby.

[He counts off his fingers.] Rika-nee is the oldest. She's a professional wrestler, but she used to be the Thorn Queen. Mikan-nee takes over for her and tests all her wrestling moves on me when I fuck up. Ringo... she's the next Thorn Queen, but she doesn't beat me up like they do. Usually. And Ume-chan's something straight out of a horror film.

I haven't seen them in a while... they're probably getting ready for the Trophaeum. It's... weird not living there anymore.

[madamemoiselle]

Then you should visit soon. They probably miss you too if you've been living with them that long.

{Softly} I'm sure that they like Ikki a lot.

[He looks down, smiling a touch sadly.]

That's a good idea, but... I can't.

[madamemoiselle]

{Frowns} Why not?

The reason I moved out was... we're on completely different teams. They hid that from me to protect me. They're all part of Sleeping Forest, which protects the Trophaeum Tower.

[madamemoiselle]

Why is that so bad?

It's not ... a bad thing, but it means that I can't conspire with them or anything. I've officially flown out of the nest. After the Trophaeum... yeah... I'll talk to them, then.
