what a big baby

[strongestcoward]

I haven't killed anything in far too long. It's making me nervous.

[Forgetting for a moment that he's the embodiment of fear and is always nervous...]

It's like trying to ignore an itch. It just gets worse and worse, and you remember all sorts of itches you thought you'd forgotten. I feel like I'm covered in cockroaches.

[And because Asura doesn't really 'get' metaphors, he physically scratches at himself. It's kind of sad to see honestly.]

[Just staring up with big, wide, loving eyes.

Do it.

Knee him in the everywhere.]

[She is so goddamned angry at this situation she can't even think straight.

There needs to be a change of tactics. But the one that occurs to her is a super risky and makes her sick to her stomach.

What should she do?]

[soundmind]

[Okay Maka, deep breaths, and--




Hug time.

Yep. Straight up hugging the god of fear.]

Oh, Asura! I never knew you felt that way!

[Hideous.]

[strongestcoward]

['Vrrrt.'

Vrrt is the noise a phone makes when it finishes recording.

A phone which Asura is holding and has obviously just recorded her little display.]

[soundmind]

...[What is that, that's not the level of tech shown in canon she who still has a rotary phone


The penny drops.

God she really wants to rip his head off.]

Hey, dumbass, we don't even share a game, who do you think you're going to show that to?

[And since he clearly asked for it, ROCKET MAKAAAAA.]

[strongestcoward]

[Yeah, but he got one in every game he's ever been in. He has a pocket filled with them.

BOOM, his head snaps back then down again.]

Maybe it's just to keep me warm on cold nights.

[soundmind]

Or just because you're a creep.

[As if he has any shits to give about affection.]

[strongestcoward]

So what if I'm a creep? It's who I am.

[soundmind]

There's nothing good about being a creep. For someone that's supposedly afraid of everything, you're awfully sure of yourself.

[strongestcoward]

Because although everyone else is surely out to get me, I can utterly rely upon myself to think chiefly about myself, therefore I can trust myself without doubting myself in the slightest.

[Say 'myself' one more time, I dare you.]

[soundmind]

I didn't get that, who is it that you can rely on? The moon?
