nineteenth trick

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[Ikki appears on the Plane perched on top of a small fighter jet. His clothes are all torn up-- shirt's cut, pants are chewed, black and red-orange jacket has a few holes in it. He's completely serious, a rare thing for him; there's no finger in his nose, no remarks about panties or anything to sustain him. It's just some lanky Japanese boy on rollerskates.

But he's surrounded by wind.

One can almost see it. The wind swirls around him like his own personal typhoon, tugging at his clothes, playing with his hair. It extends to the rest of the Plane as well, rippling across the waters of the beach, kicking up sand. Ammy's forest shivers with the force of a million quaking leaves, and the sign outside the old movie theatre creaks in response.

Even when the gust subsides, the very air trembles. It's the feeling of an oncoming storm (and not the kind that derps around with a screwdriver and saves the world).]

I'm coming, Rika-nee.

[That... is incredibly impressive. Kyouya is compelled to stop and stare. He is lacking words: what WAS that?]

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[Ikki notices someone is staring at him. Oh hi, Kyouya. His brown-gold eyes are strangely calm-- he's making an effort to channel his anger into something more constructive.]

What?

[hostclubmommy.livejournal.com]

That's... very impressive, Minami-kun.

[Ikki's gaze darkens and he looks away.]

Told you I have better things to do than look pretty.

[Oh Isaac has had about enough WIND for a VERY LONG TIME. But he can't help but be in slight awe of the display.]

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[YOU SHOULD BE IN AWE. Ikki sounds less than majestic as he greets Isaac though-- hesitantly, as if he can't quite remember he's on the Plane.]

Hey.

[grand-gaia.livejournal.com]

[HE'D BE A LOT MORE in awe if he wasn't stuck at Jupiter Lighthouse orz.]

Everything alright?

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[Haha, aww.]

My big sister is preg-o and my ex-mentor is threatening to torture her if I don't beat his ass within a certain amount of time.

So no.

[grand-gaia.livejournal.com]

Preg-o...You mean, she's going to have a baby?! Why would someone hurt a pregnant woman!

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[Ikki is eerily calm.]

He wants the Sky Regalia so he can control the world.

He doesn't give a damn about anything else.

[grand-gaia.livejournal.com]

Give him an extra smack for me.

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[He smirks.]

Gotcha.

{Peej flies up to him, laughing}

That's pretty intense. Does the jet come with the wind powers, or is that just coincidence?

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[He blinks at her for a second, as if his mind was in another place. Which... it was.

Hello, boobs.]

Nah, that's me.

[Goddamn, those are nice boobs. What a welcome distraction.]

... I don't know where you got those, but they're fucking awesome~

[boob-window.livejournal.com]

...They're natural. And I'd appreciate it if you stopped staring.

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

... 'kay.

[He forces his eyes back up to her face.]

So you can fly, too?

[boob-window.livejournal.com]

{Smiles} And a lot of other things, but flying always tends to be one of the more impressive ones.

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

Yeah, for people who weren't born with the ability.

Us normal people, we gotta work for it. We don't take the wind for granted.

[He licks a finger and holds it up to see which way the wind is blowing. It's starting to kick up again, but nothing like it was before.]

[boob-window.livejournal.com]

Well...I wouldn't exactly call myself normal, but I get what you mean.

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

I meant me and myself and that other guy in my head.
