[ the residents of the 07-GHOST house may hear the sound of a voice coming from their currently mallynapped housemate's room. that voice is a little higher, and it seems to be complaining about where are my clothes, nothing fits!

the malnosso have always had a rather sick sense of humor. at least they had the decency to dump him - or, her - in her bedroom.

Later on in the day, Shuri Oak can be seen wandering through town to shop. ]

[bamfing]

[He's feeling just a tad guilty now. So um, maybe compromise.]

How about this one... and the one before, yeah? This one you can spend with a special someone on a private trip to the beach, yeah?

[abeautifuloak.livejournal.com]

[ your meaning is flying over my head. I like shopping wins out over modesty and marriage every now and again. more so now since the uniform and dresses that are in style at home are a little dated here. ] Ahh! Good idea!

[bamfing]

It's too bad it won't be summer sooner. We won't get to use these anytime soon.

[Alas, you'll be back to being a barely likable guy again by then. Which means Shuri will never get ot use it!]

[abeautifuloak.livejournal.com]

At least there isn't any more snow. [ bitter, bitter, bitter. ducking back in to put clothes on. ] I hate the winter.

[bamfing]

[Oh, she's changing. Well... less distracting. While she's in there, he goes to fetch his journal, talking all the while.]

Winter's not so bad. But it must be lame for people that aren't so fuzzy as me.

[abeautifuloak.livejournal.com]

The cold isn't bad. It's the snow!

[ ... the dress is hideous so she's going to throw on the spring clothes she bought.

a pause. ]

Why do you look like that?

[bamfing]

[... ahh, well. What a mood killer. He sighs a bit and leans up against the wall while he waits.]

I'm a mutant. I'm not supposed to look like this. I was just born this way.

[abeautifuloak.livejournal.com]

[ and out she steps! ]

Is that why you can teleport?

[bamfing]

[See? Look how bummed out he is now. Way to go.]

Yeah.

[abeautifuloak.livejournal.com]

[ she doesn't really get the way you look but ]

I think it's cool.

It means you're special. [ thoughtful. ] Like us.

[bamfing]

Us? [He's not unused to someone calling it cool. But that's a little bit odd.]

[abeautifuloak.livejournal.com]

Zaiphon users!

[bamfing]

Zaiphon? What's that?

[abeautifuloak.livejournal.com]

It's a rare ability from home! I have it, Mikage has it and -- [ grumpily. ] Teito has it.

[bamfing]

[He probably knows the name Teito by now, but it means nothing to him.]

Right... so what does it do?

[abeautifuloak.livejournal.com]

[ ... ] It's the ability to take life energy and turn it into offensive energy, or heal people, or to do something else!

[bamfing]

Right... Mikage never mentioned that. [He can see the similarity. Kinda. Maybe.] How do people treat you and Mikage in your world?

[abeautifuloak.livejournal.com]

With respect! We're soldiers. [ ehhh. ] ... Less for him. His family isn't important.

[bamfing]

... ahh. [It's all about families.] In my world, mutants are hated. The government was even secretly building giant robots designed just to capture us.

Oh. [ cannot understand this. so it's an awkward... 'oh you're a person with troubles, i've learned i should sound sympathetic' sound. ]

[abeautifuloak.livejournal.com]

[ ... HEY I CAN ACTUALLY MAKE A CONNECTION! excited about this! ] Like Warsfeil!

[bamfing]

... Warsfeil? ["Wars for sale"? He wasn't expecting a German phrase from Shuri. And if he did, it wouldn't be a nonsensical one like that.]

[abeautifuloak.livejournal.com]

Everyone is afraid of them because they're very strong!! [ her grasp on why isn't very strong. ] But they're very nice and cool.

[ ignoring the fact that Konatsu isn't one but is in the organization anyway... and every other one has threatened him bodily harm. shuri what is your sense of friendship. ]

[bamfing]

... I see.

[Only not really. But he's guessing it must be similar.] So why don't people fear Zaiphon users?

[abeautifuloak.livejournal.com]

Because... because we're from God!
