[open!] warning: insensitive bastard. come annoy him

[nanochist.livejournal.com]

The best way to describe Kai's state of mind right now was stir-crazy. Even on a ship as mind-bendingly huge as Stacy was, Kai knew there was only so much space. He knew there was only so far he could go in one direction. He knew there was no going back, and there was no one he knew in this place.

Kai had accepted that there was nothing he could do at the moment but wait.

That didn't mean he had to like it.

Kai needed a distraction. He needed some way to get his blood pounding, something to get his mind off where he was and just how little he could do. He'd tried to find that soul-thing he'd overheard people talking about, but of course this was how his luck would run: the one man on the ship looking for the darksoul wouldn't find it.

That was why he was wandering around now, shoulders hunched, head down. Anyone who looked strong enough to take him on would have a fight picked with them, whether they wanted to fight or not. Anyone else unfortunate enough to cross his path? They'd be dealing with a very terse, very irritated man with metal under his skin.

The assassin tapped the side of his Spy mask silently in reply, it was a tool of great many uses. One especially suited for one such as he.

"Augmentations are rarely acquired for no reason," Jalith would reply in turn, he himself had a undergone a number of augmentations during his time especially since becoming a Vindicare. Perhaps a demonstration of Kai's own would not go astray.

Kai's eyes narrowed. Somehow, something in the mask had picked up on his modifications. He couldn't guess how advanced the technology was, though.

As for why he had the mods....he shook his head. "You'd have to ask whoever did it," Kai replied. "They didn't bother telling me. ....if you want to know what they do, though, you might have more luck." A corner of his mouth pulled into a grin.

At that, the assassin's head cocked ever so slightly, involuntary augmentation with no given reason? Interesting.

"Indeed, and what might that be?" Jalith replied easily if coldly as he half turned toward the other. Watching the other's half grin with the expressionless gaze of his spy mask.

He rolled his shoulder with a particularly loud crack. "I could tell you...or you could find out firsthand. You look pretty tough."

He looked stronger than Kai. Kai knew that. But that didn't mean he couldn't fight this guy anyway. He'd get an idea of how far the difference was, and have a point to strive for in his training while he was here.

That got the Assassin's attention, "You wish to fight me?" he replied flatly, coming out more as a statement than a question.

He ran his gaze over the other once more, the other did look capable enough, and he himself could use the practice, "Very well then,"
