I'm gonna need at least a couple fighters who know what they're doing. The more supernatural powers, the better. Won't take more than three hours if you're good enough, but it might be kind of dangerous.

Killers don't need to bother asking.

Payment negotiable. Give me a price.



♚ IKKI — [ three hours after the first filter ]

I want to talk.

♝ AGITO — [ an hour after the second filter ]

Think we can meet somewhere?

[ ooc | blah blah, Years That Never Were and cursed out of his mind. Offer entirely open, I'll ping with details as needed! Responses after a quick break. ♥ ]

Pass. I don't want it.

( you needn't had to worry, kazu. it's ikki who's hanging up instead. )

[errandry]

( yeah, not happening! he's going to keep pinging until something gets through. )

Don't be a bastard, that wasn't the point.

[crowing]

( he'll answer. . . after a few minutes. )

Then what's the point? Because I'm not seeing it.

[errandry]

... I don't know where to start, all right?

[crowing]

. . .

( annoyed. . .! )

Just spit it out or hang up.

... what the fuck was that yesterday?

voice | filtered;

[crowing]

What is "that"?

voice | filtered;

[exhausts]

You want me to get my hat and ask that again?

voice | filtered;

[crowing]

I'd probably like you more if you did.

[exhausts]

( the barest hesitation, nowhere long enough for silence. and yet. )

Yeah... like I couldn't see that one coming.

voice | filtered;

[exhausts]

I need a favor. That's what I was gonna ask.

voice | filtered;

[crowing]

Don't ask what you already know.

If it's a favour, you could have just said that's what you wanted.

voice | filtered;

[errandry]

It wasn't the only thing, all right?

( temper, temper, but it's not even as much of a flare as it could be. )

You busy today or not?

voice | filtered;

[crowing]

( pretty much just ignoring him. )

What's the favour?

voice | filtered;

[errandry]

... The barrier's supposed to weaken at points around the island for a couple hours today. Raw power'd be enough to smash through it.

[crowing]

Isn't that the kind of you shit you mention right away without these stupid fucking pretences you insisted on?

voice | filtered;

[crowing]

You didn't even need a freakin' filter.

( that's right, he didn't. what the fuck. )

voice | filtered;

[crowing]

Where'd you learn this from?

voice | filtered;

[errandry]

Yeah, well, I knew if I brought it up first you weren't gonna listen to anything else I said.

[ a trifle flatly - ]

The library's got records on everything.

voice | filtered;

[crowing]

But you didn't say anything else.

( nothing but stalling and complaining. )

voice | filtered;

[errandry]

You don't want to hear it, what's the point?

voice | filtered;

[crowing]

You've got my attention now.

So, say it.

There's—

( he could say it all, couldn't he. he could admit it's all been a lie so far. Ikki's listening for once, like he means it, and maybe he'd be a bastard about it (of course he'd be a bastard about it). still, if anybody'd break open a way back, if anybody could win without compromise, it's— )
