it's a deadly work

[bakegarasu]

Who: Otoha and Sam
Where: Sam's apartment
Summary: After this post, Otoha goes out to have a discussion with Sam. Yakuza style.
Warnings: Swearing, blood (possibly), violence, eldritch horrors.


After that... suspicious post, and despite Desco's objections, Otoha still needed to pay Sam a visit. It was easy enough to figure out which apartment was his, and easier still to get into the building. He'd try this the friendly way first.

For a certain value of 'friendly'.

Otoha knocks on the door to Sam's apartment, in a dark suit with a reddish-purple shirt. The shirt's not tucked in well and the jacket's open, but he doesn't care.

"Open up."

"You did make the hole in the wall - which we're probably going to have to pay for."

He needs to send out the Johnny distress signal soon. How does he negotiate.

Desco just sort of stares blankly.

"Desco has no idea what you're talking about. It was like that when she got there."

Desco never lies, but she is incredibly good at refusing to acknowledge inconvenient things like facts.

[primordial]

"Sure you don't, Desco."

He rubs his eyes, before going and sitting down on the roof and burying his face in his hands because wow, he does not want to be part of this in any fashion.

"I can't believe this is happening..."

[bakegarasu]

"Will everyone stop dancing around the fucking issue? Kid -" He points his sword at Sam.

"Just tell me what you are. I don't care what it is, I'm just sick of you hiding."

[primordial]

There's no answer.

Sam puts his hands down in his lap, but stares in front of him at nothing in particular, as if having no idea that Otoha is talking to him right now.

Yes, he's giving you the cold treatment.

He's been listening through the roof for a while now and has deemed it necessary to reign in his agitated partner. There's a flurry of bats that comes from one of the windows below and reforms into a man between Otoha and Sam.

He lays a hand on Otoha's blade and smiles at him. "That isn't a very nice way to treat a guest our dear Desco has brought home, is it, Otoha? Perhaps we all need to calm down a bit."

[primordial]

Bats? Sam looks over, looking surprised...but that expression goes away to be replaced by a frown, and he rubs his forehead again as he stands up. He doesn't need any of this. Just leave him alone. Leave him alone.

"Look, that's nice of you and all, but I just want to go and find a place to be by myself, okay? I-I'm just tired of all this..."

[bakegarasu]

He calms very slightly when Johnny appears, but then he has to go and do that. Something in him snaps, and his voice is a snarl.

"I'm just tired of this bullshit. I just want to know what the fuck he's hiding. I'd like to do that without any of these fucking games."

He pulls his sword away from Johnny and glares at Sam, before taking a step back. He needs to put some distance between himself and everyone else right now.

[primordial]

"Why am I hiding anything? Seriously, do you have any evidence for that? No? H-honestly, then what is your problem!?"

His eyes, wide and tearful, look back and forth between Otoha and Johnny. He just looks like a young man who doesn't want to be a part of any of this right now, not a monster who wants to hurt people.

"Seriously...this is impossible. It really is."
