I won't shy away from what I did. They actions were still my own.

[He does hum thoughtfully at the kiss though.]

Hold on tight.

[He unlocks the kick stand with the heel of his boot and starts the engine. He doesn't give anymore warning than that as he tears off into the surface streets. He's going a little fast but not recklessly so, but he doesn't exactly stay in his lane as he takes some of those corners. Luckily the snow really starts failing after this or they'd have bit it hard by now.

There doesn't seem to be a destination at first. Simply driving through the streets with the wind whipping at them and the scenery flying by.]

[was already holding on, but makes a surprised sound -- followed by a laugh -- and holds on tighter when Nine suddenly takes off.

he just seems to be enjoying the ride, pressed warm to Nine's back and occasionally glancing around at the scenery.]

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[They ride in comfortable silence then. He's a creature of habit so he actually follows a path Nemesis took him on the other day. They'll veer off to the elevated highway until they reach a boardwalk shopping plaza with a view of Tokyo Bay.

He'll cut the engine and try to flatten his hair as he looks back at Anubis.]

At least there isn't any rush hour traffic.

[rollwillpowercheck]

There is that. It's nice and peaceful, but I think it'd feel empty if I were here alone.

[reaches out to pat at Nine's hair helpfully.]

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[Bowing his head a little.]

Good thing you aren't alone then.

[Picking up one of the saddlebags before giving Anubis an exaggerated bow and asking for his hand.]

[rollwillpowercheck]

A very, very good thing.

[gives Nine his hand and hops off the bike.]

How gallant.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[Kissing the back of his hand before interlacing their fingers.]

Is my gut feeling wrong that you enjoy being pampered?

[Taking them to sit on a bench overlooking the bay.]

[rollwillpowercheck]

[squeezes Nine's hand with a smile, his face slightly pink.]

You're not wrong, but who doesn't?

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Ha! Throwing my question back at me. Clever.

[Sitting down on the bench and dragging his heels up on the wooden seat. He wraps his arms around Anubis' waist and rests his head on his double's shoulder.]

I'm really beginning to hate all of this. Not just the Producers, but my unit as well. Is this the bullshit you have to deal with normally?

[rollwillpowercheck]

[puts an arm around Nine, and turns his head to press a kiss to his hair.]

Mm... I hate dealing with my unit sometimes, but I definitely wouldn't say I hate them. Things aren't... going well with Bad End?

[rollwithdisadvantage]

I get the added bonus of generally hating most things.

[Closing his eyes.]

They continually emotionally compromise themselves and they are starting to rub off on me, and I hate it. I don't want to feel guilty because of actions I willing choose to take.

[rollwillpowercheck]

[strokes his fingers through Nine's hair.]

And you think that's their influence...?

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Well, it isn't your influence. You own up to your actions.

[rollwillpowercheck]

Hmm... so it's not so much the guilt, but the way they deal with it?

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Bingo. Got it in one.

But don't let my grumbles ruin our day out. Tell me what's on your mind.

[rollwillpowercheck]

[laughs softly]

Oh, what's on my mind isn't much better. Obviously I'm not sure where I stand with my unit right now, either.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Lucifel really went all out.

The idiot.

[Giving a slight squeeze around his waist.]

Then I pity the fools that don't realize what gift they've been given. Even if I like some of them. Though I have a feeling Persephone and Lavender aren't the problem.

[rollwillpowercheck]

They're definitely not the problem.

[presses his face to Nine's hair.]

Lucifel-san, though... he wants to be a villain. To give people somewhere to direct their anger. Of course, he didn't discuss this with anyone. Because he thinks he's "defective" and it's what he deserves, but he's also selfish and thinks he can just decide things for people.

[SIGHS.]

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[Well, he would reach up and pet his hair but his limbs are currently occupied.]

"Decide things for people". Yes, that does seem to be a problem as of late. And while we were warned we do need conflict I don't understand why death has to be the front of people's mind.

There are so many other ways to achieve that.

[rollwillpowercheck]

[that's fine, cuddles are good.]

Right? There's a real lack of creativity both by the producers and the people here...

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[He laughs.]

Ah, sometimes its fun to watch them suffer for their foolishness, and then you realize what a headache it is going to cause.

Your powerset is ridiculous by the way. I'm jealous.

[rollwillpowercheck]

[makes a face]

I'd gladly trade that skill for something else. Like pep!pep!'s speed, or something.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

No. No. No.

Think how useful it would be on Mukuro.

[rollwillpowercheck]

I'm not sure someone who walks around with a big hole in his chest and a heart split in two would really be phased... does that even count as a wound anymore?

[rollwithdisadvantage]

You never know. Though if we had the ability to temporarily nullify powers I'm sure he has it, too. A pity. I wanted to see them all suffer.
