Given an invitation, Albedo was never one to leave one standing. Threat, gift, or regret, he'd prefer to touch where others wouldn't, bring dismay and repulsion for those unable to see what remained in existence before them--and a part of him had always been like that. Before that girl, and before U-DO's touch--Albedo had always tread where others had not. As one unknowing of the difference of mortals and immortals, Albedo had only shook with fear from the divisions. With the knowledge now, it was something reveled in; touched and tainted, violated and dug into. Clawed at within his grasp ( ... )

He knew where to look for the telltale signs of movement easily, this time, and he became fast aware of Albedo's approach - perhaps before Albedo himself was. Wesker had come through a similar path, the last time he had the pleasure of company. Though, that was long before the need for any such precautions in place, long before the city started to turn so hostile and so constrictive and necessitate those sort of actions. He could see him in glimpses between the slow, soft rustle of foliage and hanging branches, their sound colouring the wind and swept away under the movement of the clouds above. Dai paid close attention, studying his face; from the moment his eyes were within view, he met them, kept their gaze. He didn't look away for an instant, and his own lips curved in response to that sharp little three-point smile ( ... )

...so I tl;dr too much. >_>; purpletaint May 4 2011, 23:49:06 UTC
Lips slid back from his teeth in delight. Wasn't the other simply charming in his ways? The weapon's head tilted, shoulders rolling in a half-shrug. "Mm, depends on your validation of existence really. Define yours and I'll give you mine. Most that keep ambitions consider themselves the predator for prey's sake." As given in petty example over the network, and how had that went but to prove Albedo's point? One alone had replied in kind, another in interest, and here it was, the consideration of others as wolves or sheep. Yet, again, there called only patterns. What played out would, shifted as it may be ( ... )

I love your tl;dr. :) redeify May 10 2011, 01:15:43 UTC
You're very interesting to meOh, Dai had certainly gathered as much as Albedo thought he had, in that regard, and thus he was very much aware. It was hard not to be, with how thoroughly open the boy had been about both his intentions and his curiosity, right from the start; always with his eyes lit up with interest, some wicked anticipation, some idea or hope. Still, wasn't it always nice to hear it said so bluntly? To be called 'interesting' as though it was very matter-of-fact and natural, and not particularly shameful at all. As though it was to be expected, even. It was almost an affirmation of the obvious, the same kind of thing that led people to say 'I love you' when it should have been clear. And filled with the same warm, pleasant comforts, in a way, the same thing that other such trite declarations had long since lost their use for ( ... )
