The point of no return

Who: Eiji and Ankh, Open portion HERE
When: October 7, night, continues for 46 hours
Where: Shopping district
What: The power of the music of the night
Warnings: Standard monster-fighting violence, addiction (thanks to the monster), some self-harm/semi-suicidal undertones to conversation

There is a phantom who's been singing late at night in the shopping district. And this angel of music has been drawing a lot of monsters. And Eiji being Eiji, he can't just leave this alone.

A flash of light from LaToraBatta doesn't do much to distract the monsters, and they begin aggressively beating Eiji now that he's closer to wherever the singing is coming from.

"Ankh, I think I'm going to need a combo for this one," he calls back, trying to block while at the same time slashing at another monster. "There's too many!"

Kamui chuckled, recognizing the hesitation he saw in Ankh's glance. "Probably wondering what you taste like."

That earns Kamui an intense glare, and if Ankh didn't have to keep his hold on Eiji then it would probably also involve grabbing the other's face.

"Stop babbling nonsense." He was mostly trying to figure out whether that had any chance of actually doing anything. Though Kamui's comment was possibly also more accurate than he'd like to admit. "I was thinking this whole thing is ridiculous enough that a stupid suggestion might work." Which, he wants to be clear, does not make it any less stupid.

Turning his gaze back to Eiji, it takes him a second longer to come to any real conclusion about that thought. He doubts there's much chance that would help. On the other hand, if it does it's probably a lot simpler and less annoying than dealing with Eiji being a mind-controlled moron for however much longer.

"Tch." It's actually worth trying, isn't it? Inwardly debating exactly how much he hates this place, he leans in and presses his lips to Eiji's in a way that's... not chaste, exactly, it's too rough for that. It's very Ankh.
foeyay: (had a good laugh out of this)

Kamui managed to remain very blasé about the whole affair, even when Ankh continued to insult him. The kiss was going to happen either way. Ankh was free to rant as much as he needed to until he was ready to do the deed.

When the kiss did happen - firm, aggressive, funny as hell - Kamui whistled appreciatively. Then he leaned in, eager and curious as he assessed first Ankh and then Eiji.

"Well? Still lusting after saw-toothed siren sex?"

Ankh doesn't have anything to say after that, either, considering. It's probably good that Kamui's there to bring it all back to the point, even if that's not how Ankh would have chosen to phrase the question. He looks at Eiji, waiting for the answer; did that work?
foeyay: (my mom got so angry)

Despite the positive response, Kamui pouted, shoulders sagging in defeat.

"Really? Boooooring. I wanted to see you go after her again."

Between Eiji's awkward-enough-to-be-believable response and Kamui's goading, Ankh doesn't let needing to hold onto the idiot stop him this time.

"Oi." He takes a step toward Kamui, and his arm notably shifts, seemingly on its own, to being covered in armor. He'll be grabbing Kamui by the chin in a moment if nothing stops him first.

Kamui didn't stop Ankh's hand. Rather, he met it with his own, gripping the newly formed armor with terrifying force. Very suddenly, he was smiling again - a dark, wicked smirk that dared Ankh to keep going.

"You sure you wanna do this now? Your lovesick puppy's running away from the housing district."

It's only after Ankh's moved that he realises he has probably made two mistakes. First, that's not a response he's used to getting, but the feeling he gets of desires flaring means he should have expected it. Second, Eiji was lying.

"Tch." He backs away, wrenching his hand from the other's grip without saying another word, and then he's off to chase an idiot.
