03 - Birthday Tribute to a Demon King!

[belfire]

Who: Kazuya, Atsuro (otakuro) & Naoya (meaningdies)
Where: Cancer Ward
Summary: BACKDATED TO 24th NOVEMBER yeah I'm late. It's Kazuya's birthday! He wants tribute.
Warnings: Spoilt Demon King ahoy.

It was Kazuya's birthday, and he actually felt somewhat happy over this. There was none of the excitement that was normally felt on this day, but it was enough to put him into a peppy mood despite the cold weather.

Of course he sent his friend and cousin where they could find him to give him presents, and, if they wanted to, to hang out. Kazuya had squirrelled away enough money to splurge on this day of fun, and he was spending some of that money on one of the crane machines outside of the Growlanser Arcade.

Although Kazuya wasn't alone. His demon, Okuninushi, was standing beside him, holding what seemed to be a plastic bag full of boxed food (cakes and sweets, most likely) with an expression of grand patience. A great misuse of a Kishin, but it was Kazuya's birthday, and everyone loved arcades!

"Lord, I think that should be more to the left."

"I've got it, I've got- oh fucking hell."

Well, that love was being tested at the moment. Kazuya glared at the empty crane, before his gaze dropped back down to the Jack Frost toy that it had failed to grab. He swore this damned game cheated...

"Oi, don't get cocky," Kazuya scolded, rummaging in his pocket for his wallet. Need some coins... "I'm older and awesomer. Demon Kings don't lose at video games anymore - well, not ones that rely on reflexes."

[meaningdies]

Naoya took some coins out and shoved them into the machine. "It's not about reflexes, it's about strategy. And that, little brother, is something you're still lacking."

[belfire]

"Uh, excuse me? I kicked Babel's ass with strategy, thank you very much," Kazuya sniffed, fluffing up like an offended water fowl as Naoya slipped the coins into the machine.

Never mind that Naoya had been with him during the Babel fight but shhh...

[meaningdies]

"Mhm."

... He had no doubt that Kazuya did just fine defeating Babel even without him there, but that didn't mean he had to admit it. He scrolled over and selected his fighter, a warrior built for speed over strength.

[belfire]

Kazuya harrumphed at the lack of reply, turning his attention back to the screen. He selected a heavy set fighter with equal defence and attack. Who needs speed if you can one hit K.O someone?
