Suichi was loosing his steam when she started talking about how everyone died. He didn't like her intent to kill. He lowered his arms since the punks were already out of the park and continued to look the Spirit in the eyes. [i]Eye contact. I have to keep eye contact. Just like Kasumi told me.[/i] He tried his best to keep his expression neutral, but he couldn't completely erase his concern. Surprisingly, he managed to keep his voice calm. "You're right. We do die. Why do you think we're suffering though?" This scythe was scary close. Whisker walked up to Death's leg and sniffed at her fearlessly and then purred and nudged her leg. Suichi wanted to cry out at Whisker to demand what the cat was thinking, but his focus had to be on this seemingly emotionless Spirit. "How can you be confident in your judgement if you don't know everything there is to know about us?" He steadily reached a hand towards her in an inoffensive fashion. [i]Kasumi said not to interact with them, but I have to think fast. Besides I don't have a crystal on me.[/i] "Maybe, you'd like to get to know me before you... end my life. How about we go on a date?" His heart pounded hard. He was pretty sure that he was blushing really hard right now. [i]This is the first girl I've ever asked out... and she's not even human.[/i] ----------------------------------------------------------------- Kyoko answered her phone as she was running to the barracks. She was impressed that she heard it ringing. "I know. I'm on my way right now. I'll be there soon to get geared fast." She didn't feel the need to wait for a response and hung up her phone. She couldn't waste her breath talking while running. Kyoko made it to the barracks in good time, but she still hard to change into her gear which would take time she didn't feel she had. Several other of her comrades were rushing to equip themselves as well. She nodded and greeted a few of them as she made her way to her locker and opened it after entering her code and presenting her identification. Her Combat Wiring Suit hung there ready to be put on and she quickly began to get herself changed.
