Damn. He was hoping that he'd manage to get all of his ducks in a row before THAT happened. At least it looks like Marias and Akaba wailed on him enough to put him down for a while...

So, Kaz can be found at LDS. Probably in places a scuzzy looking fellow like him shouldn't be. Like on his way to see Akaba. With the current problems, he has at least left his sword with security.

::Well, a scuzzy bastard like you can run into a fellow like me, Top Team Coat over my shoulders. Probably on break in one of the upper floors, reading through a beaten and dogeared and sticky-noted book labelled Shinseiki no Yogen ("Prophecies of the New Century").::

[ogrewarrior]

"...Ah. Hibiki.

Hey kid."

[soundofarmor]

::Snaps the book shut like a bear trap, and places it face-down at his side, along with his reading glasses.::

You look anxious, sir.

[ogrewarrior]

"That's just my natural face.

... Also the demons outside aren't helping jack."

[soundofarmor]

But I think they're being kept to a minimum.

[ogrewarrior]

"Yeah. Just weird I gotta carry a sword to work again."

He smiles slightly.

"Also that fucking duel with Vesik." Made my mouth water in anticipation. "What a world, yeah?"

[soundofarmor]

He seemed little better than the animals outside.

[ogrewarrior]

He snorts.

"Not an animal kid. A monster."

[soundofarmor]

A monster is merely another name for another kind of beast. The point is he isn't a man.

[ogrewarrior]

"Smarter beasts, is the thing.

...But, yeah. Potaytoh, Potahto. We're getting at the same thing.

I'm curious as to how the fuck he got through all of that? We letting real, powerful spirits into our pro-lea-..."

We let Juudai and the Signers in. Sakaki. Tsukumo. ... my bastard brood.

"We letting dangerous spirits into the pro leagues then?"

[soundofarmor]

I assume most if any "Spirits" in the leagues on Earth know not to be animals. But the boss' comment at the end I think was designed to restrain Vesik 'next time'.

[ogrewarrior]

"Yeah, next time. If there is one. Marias knocked him around something awful... and did ya see his handler's face? Might be the last time we see that bastard, and good riddance."

[soundofarmor]

He'll be back. His handler I think was more disturbed he did what he did.

[ogrewarrior]

He tchs.

"I hope not. Maybe they'll ban him for 'trying to literally murder Akaba and Marias and a stadium's worth of people.'

...I'm doing that thing where I think dueling's ruled by reasonable and logical people again, ain't I?"

[soundofarmor]

Yes.

But at the same time I think yesterday was a limit point.

[ogrewarrior]

"I hope so kid. I really hope so.

'Cause otherwise it's the start of something else."

[soundofarmor]

Call me optimistic.

[ogrewarrior]

"Hello optimistic. I'm old and cynical. Nice to meet you."

[soundofarmor]

::Stifles a brief laugh.::

[ogrewarrior]

"Anyway kid. We'll keep doing what we're doing. Someone's overplayed their hand a little. Got to meet with Akaba.

I'm probably throwing Faust in with ya, so..."

[soundofarmor]

Faust?

[ogrewarrior]

"Neil Faust? Little shorter than you? American? ...sleeps through my class."

[soundofarmor]

Ah. I blew off his existence entirely.

[ogrewarrior]

"We all did. Go back and watch his debut duel with Cardozo. He gets a little cocky, but... holy shit, I didn't realize there was anyone who actually understand how Mecha Phantom Beasts work."

[soundofarmor]

Or is it because the new one actually made his Deck work.
