Is it bad to think about things be better than not?

[ She sighed. How long was this walk anyway? Did it feel this long. She just wanted to sleep. ]

Yeah, I probably should... but you know, it's not really fun thinking this way.

[cresthopes]

[As the boy gave another yawn, he kept on mumbling to himself. Right now, he seriously felt like he was the 7 year old he should be. He wanted to stay up late and yet, he just couldn't!

Oh why oh why must his bedtime be so early?]

If you say so... [Of course now he was starting to trail off a little. And perhaps struggling to keep his eyes awake]

[xroyal_bratx]

[ It can't be helped. Ishtar walked over to sit down next to him, offering her shoulder or lap if he wanted to rest on them. It would keep him from sleeping on the hard cold ground at least. ]

Yup, I said so.

[ She chuckled softly from her lips as Takeru murmured. ]

I guess you have a point. I'm just more worried about people's health if anything when it comes to that stuff.I hear it makes people "crash."

[ She replied with a more relaxed tone once he caught on. He's not such a bad guy after all. She keeps her smile as she looks around at the drink menu. ]

Honestly, I'd rather have a normal drink than something like this anyway... and it's fine don't worry about it. There's so many people here that it's hard to determine where they're from just by looking at them.

[ That already brought concern to her when he stiffened up. Ishtar tilted her head to the side and looked up at him straight in the eyes. ]

Hey, what's with the silence? You're making me nervous.

[ She paused a moment before adding. ]

No hiding things remember?

[ She gave him a small smile. ]

Takeru Takaishi

[xroyal_bratx]

[ Ishtar would take whatever he could offer to her as words. She didn't want him to think too hard on it helping her piece things together. ]

...Robots that were suppose to help you?

[ She replied with a frown on her face as he said that. By the sound it the whole situation probably turned really sour fast. Of course, her hunch was right when Takeru told that the robots started to attack them and that they were seen as friends before they went berserk. That's really not something she'd like to hear especially for a child to have to go through that. Ishtar didn't really know what to say other keeping her brows furrowed. ]

That's bad. I can't believe they'd do that to people. Especially those that you know have some serious trust issues or trauma. I can't imagine them being okay with this kind of set up at all. Oh-- wh-- what? I don't think it's a good idea to pick any of those sides. They're both involved somehow and the last thing we need is people here dividing up in different factions or groups. That's just screwed up.

[ Yeah Ishtar won't be taking that lying down nope. ]

Teddie

[ Ishtar was the type to get into trouble a lot so running away is usually the answer, so that's why she's pretty good at running but that doesn't really help her in this situation because her cat is faster and now she lost the darn thing. Stupid Bells and she ran right into poor Teddie in that awkward thing they call clothing of sorts. She's not entirely fond of running around barely clothed, even of her lack of modesty is typical.

Overdramtics are fun maybe... ]

L-Lady? I'm not that old...

[ She furrowed her brows as she slowly got off of him and back on her feet. She offered him a hand. ]

Sorry, that was bad timing. Are you okay?

[ Please look anywhere else but her chest.... cuz you know that's totally not cool. ]

Rock Lee

[ It will eventually fade. She'll get over it somehow. ]

I guess you got a point but still I'm not entirely sure I want to trust that thought. Yeah-- probably. I'm not exactly the type that gets into fights or battles. It's what I get for being lazy, I suppose.

[ She replied giving the other a small laugh. ]

O-Oh you will really? Aahaha, I'm not sure I want to find out the hard way when I drink it and it's too late.

[ Ishtar will eventually remember his name and then she'll probably apologize a million times for it. ]

[xroyal_bratx]

[ continued from here ]

---

[ Ishtar nodded her head. ]

Well for now, I guess. Do you like talking up close or maybe it's a habit of sorts?

[ Maybe he might be able to answer the questions, maybe. ]

[painted_seals]

[ He smiles, eyes curving. ]

I read that the best way to make friends is to be close to them.

[ Sai... read between the lines! ]

[niceguypose]

[Good for her!!]

It is alright, Miss! It is never too late to start training hard! I would gladly guide you through an intense push-up set at any moment!

[Lee smiles and raises a thumbs up!]

Then, let me be the one to do it for you! I am ready to take any risk!

[leashed_hunter]

Why... didn't you....

[ His words trail off as her eyes steal his thoughts with their steady gaze. If he'd known, then what? What would he have done? What would he have-- ]

... You should have said something.

[xroyal_bratx]

...I didn't think that it was the right time... for it you know?

[ Kind of giving him privacy but not since she didn't know exactly how to deal with it. ]

You should have woken me up.

[ She replied looking the other way. She didn't know that he was thinking about the whole ordeal while she was trying to figure out what to say. ]

[xroyal_bratx]

[ She laughed a little. ]

Ishtar is fine. You don't have to be so polite.

[ Well, she's not sure what kind of exercise regime is "intense push-ups" but she's a little worried. ]

Ah-- well maybe a good warning before we start would be helpful so I can be prepared for it maybe? A-Ah I don't think that's a good idea. I don't want anything to happen to you.

[xroyal_bratx]

[ What a strange guy. He seemed a bit well-- how could she put it, socially inept-- for the lack of better words. ]

I don't think you're suppose to take that in a literal sense but I don't mind being uh-- friends with you.

[ She replied trying to find the right words without sounding too weirded out by the whole conversation. At least she was calming down. ]

[leashed_hunter]

[ He watches her look away. ]

Why?

[ She'd already said it wasn't the right time. ]

[xroyal_bratx]

...I don't know...just-- I'm not really sure what I'm trying to say here.

[ Well she sort of said two contrasting things didn't she. It took her a moment to grasp her thoughts again ]

You don't have to keep it to yourself you know?

[ as much as she wants to breeze over the topic, she's aware how serious it is. Especially when she could hear someone she didn't usually hear cry like that. The sounds weren't loud but with a quiet apartment and the rest of the world sleeping, it was hard to avoid. ]

[leashed_hunter]

[ He's quiet for a long moment before there's a hand on top of her head. ]

I could say the same thing to you.

[ He tells her as he looks up, straight ahead. ]

[xroyal_bratx]

It's okay to cry you know? There's nothing wrong with it. It must have been a huge shock to you when it happened to me, I'm sure. It probably wasn't pleasant. I'm sorry that I disappeared on you a lot lately.

[ They're both pretty bad at this aren't they? She just hugs him some more since they were already stuck in the position for a while. ]

Yeah I wasn't sure how to well, you know react to all of it.

[teddiecircus]

Ah, I didn't mean to say you seem old! More like charming! A charming beautiful flower!

[Insulting a girl was really the last thing he had on his mind! It would put shame on his name! Kind of. Not that she knew that.

He takes the offered hand and tries for his best smile.]

Thank you, I'm fine! How about you?

[And hey, it doesn't hurt to look a little, does it?]

[niceguypose]

Ah... My apologies, Ishtar-san! After all, we crossed paths several times in the past!

[Lee nods.]

We can start only when you say you are ready! So you do not have to worry. [Of course, this might not be the right place or attire for that.]

I am very strong! And the drink does not seem to be alcoholic! So I am sure that all will be well, Ishtar-san!

[cresthopes]

[He didn't want to remember how he had to fight in order to win. He knew he had to in the Digital World and fighting was an important thing. But fighting against his friends? That was another thing entirely. He didn't a repeat of what happened between his parents and how nobody got along. He couldn't stand losing anyone else that was close to him.

And especially not in a place like this]

Which is why I hope that everyone here will choose something else. I don't want to ever fight any of my friends again! It was horrible enough having to see my brother fight Taichi-san, I think it's just as worse here!

[Of course, he also had to fight Taichi's robot too. Not that it was a pleasant experience but it just proved his point]

What makes them think they can do that to everyone?!

[leashed_hunter]

[ He grows quiet, leaving that first sentence alone and instead replies to the second. ]

You don't need to apologize for that. [ His eyes fall back to her. ] You didn't do anything.

[xroyal_bratx]

[ Subject avoiding again. She's going to sigh at it but whenever he's ready she supposed. Arguing about the whole matter in general wasn't going to do either of them good since they were both bull headed. Ishtar wanted to press the matter but she was sure he needed time to recollect his thoughts or whatever. Of course, she didn't want to get him angry after what happened to her whether it was within her power or not. ]

I know... but you know.

[ Which makes no sense but Ishtar Logic. She's not really going to take it back. ]

...

[ Okay they've been on the floor of the kitchen for a while and well she sure hopes whatever he's making it's not burnt. ]

I'm mostly sorry for jumping on you like that... and taking the bed...

[ There's a brief chuckle from her. ]

[xroyal_bratx]

[ That's definitely a good thought to have and Ishtar probably didn't want it anymore than he did when it came to fighting but they don't really have much of a choice but to fight in general. She'll have to work around that somehow. Of course fighting would only be a last resort and even that she didn't want to do. Ishtar wanted to ensure that everyone could be happy without fighting but obviously it's impractical and unrealistic. She was too idealistic for her own good sometimes. ]

Same. Let's hope that they have good enough hearts and brains to avoid these stupid pointless fights. There's nothing we can't talk about before actually taking action.

[ Fighting anything that looks like your friends and family isn't exactly pleasant. She would know. ]
