After...party...?
[SO THAT SURE WAS AN EXECUTION, HUH
Shirou's just been kind of staring off into space, still holding on to Usagi's hand, ever since Kon and Natsume's deaths. Just when it starts to look like he might stay like that all hecking night, he suddenly blinks and looks around.]
I'm going to go get some food.
[And indeed, he disappears off to the lodge and returns a little later with a huge pile of beautifully made sandwiches and other snacks. Did he have them prepared, or did he just make them really fast somehow? Who knows.
Anyway, there are now sandwiches. And the shack might still be on fire. This is fine.]

He's also not sure if trying to pick someone up means you're close to them or not if you're.. Nine...
But one thing seems safe to say: ]
I'm sorry... I didn't know you knew him much at all. He'll be back, at least. In a way.
no subject
Yeah, he'll be back. [ He can't think about it. ] How are you holding up? You good?
no subject
I didn't really have anything to do with either of the three who died this week.
[ And there was no brains, though Boa isn't even sure if he'd care that much about a third brain anymore. ]
You should just focus on yourself. You seem pretty shaken.
no subject
At those words, he steals a glance towards Talcott and then shakes his head. ]
I can't focus on that.
[ That means thinking or trying to actually figure things out, but none of that is normal for him. ]
Hey, I'll be fine.
no subject
[ They haven't out loud talked about it since then, but it seems like it's something that should probably come up again. ]
You've not gotten used to this yet, have you?
no subject
Yeah, I haven't. I keep thinking they'll be normal again.
[ Double that with how Tal has moments where he shows how much he still remembers and cares... ]
I understand why the crystal made us forget.
[ He isn't sure if he wishes to go back to it or not. He doesn't want to forget the time with Talcott, Natsume, or the dumb conversation with Kon. ]
no subject
... so actually, forget I ever said this.
[ Dangerous idea, he should not have spoken out loud .... ]
no subject
I told him I'd take him to meet my siblings.
[ Even if it winds up being just memories he takes back to them. ]
no subject
You have siblings?
no subject
Yeah, there's twelve of us, yo. We're all in Class-0.
[ It's easy to tell that it's a better topic for him. He almost smiles and he seems less tense. ]
no subject
[ Boa engages this happily. It's good to be able to distract Nine for a bit and he definitely doesn't mind learning more about his friend as they go. ]
Like.. a soldier class? I recall you were at war.
no subject
[ That's definitely a smile there. ]
The higher-ups decided to use the cadets in war. They didn't want to sacrifice the defense keeping their asses safe in the capital.
[ Nine.. has opinions about his superiors. ]
no subject
no subject
You're usually sorted by your abilities. Class-0 is special. We used to stay off campus at Mother's facility, but we were brought in to kick ass because the crystal jammer didn't work on us.
no subject
[ WHY IS YOUR WORLD COMPLICATED... Though Boa guesses this is how everyone feels when he talks about Beyblade. ]
no subject
Mother. She's in charge of the sorcery division and is one of the Consortium of Eight. She gathered us together when I was eight.
[ Pausing a moment as he tilts his head. ]
At least that's as far back as I can remember, yo.
[ Remember the thing about memories being wiped in association of the dead? Think about what that means if someone has no memories before a certain time in their life.
Boa might not have time though cause Nine is going to barrel through this topic. ]
The Crystal jammer was something those bastards brought to cut people off from their powers. When Milites invaded Rubrum, they made sure no one could actually fight back, yo. We were the only ones it didn't effect because of what Mother did.
no subject
... so wait... you're a sorcerer? Or is that just her?
no subject
[ Nine looks like he is mixed about something. ]
The Sorcery department studies the crystals and conduct experiments. Mother is pretty badass at magic, so I guess she is a sorcerer. [ Frowning as he crosses his arms. ] The other cadets around school calls us her pet project, yo.
[ That's probably the best way to put it, even if it pisses him off. ]
She did a procedure that makes us special. I'm not supposed to get into the details, but it's why we grew up in the facility. It's why we could still use magic or our abilities when everyone was cut off.
no subject
So you're from a training facility as well. I should have guessed after that talk we had about titles.
