dear_mun | She's not happy regarding a certain ending.

[Lee at first just stares, then scoffs, and then cracks up laughing.]

Oh? Just what made you dirty? You look fine to me.

[Asuka glares at Lee for a bit before aiming a kick at his shin.]

It's not polite to say things like that to a lady.

[Just huffs and turns away so as to avoid blushing at him.]

It's that creep Feng! Stealing my dojo's sign, luring me out to that deserted temple... and... Augh, if I ever see him, his face will be turned inside out after I get through stomping it into the ground!

[That kick to the shin...yeah, he'll take that one. He rubs his now sore leg as he listens, trying not to laugh.]

What? So, he's a little shy. You should be flattered that someone likes you.

[If she were facing you, you'd notice her eye twitching.]

The creep trashed my dad's dojo and put him in the hospital! There's no liking that bastard!

[He may not be related to her by blood but that whole family thing by proxy still gives him the license to tease. He stands up and twirls his wrist in a playful manner.]

Yes, yes, we all heard the same old story. He did this, I did that, vengeance must be paid. [sigh] It's almost becoming habit now.

Oh well, it's a constant in the universe. Push, pull, stop, go, it's all the same. How else can you maintain your reputation as a gang mediator, yes?

[Unfortunately, Asuka is oblivious to the relation. Jin and Kazuya and Heihachi are the only ones she's aware of on that side of the family. With family like that, she hasn't exactly been one to seek out the rest of 'em.]

I could care less about the gang mediator thing. If Lili wants it that bad, she can have it. But the way she did it was crossing a line.

And as for Feng, it's a matter of honor! You mess with one Kazama, you mess with us all.

...Except Jin. He's a jerk. ...And a perv.

Perv?

[This makes Lee laugh. He's heard all sorts of things but a pervert wasn't up there on his list. After a moment of laughing he breathes.]

He's my nephew.

[Insert that foot in your mouth now, Lee, you just incriminated yourself.]

He once... put his face... right in my...

[Wait. What?]

Nephew? You're part of that Mishima family of jerks!?

Adopted.

[He lifted his chin with smile.]

I wouldn't worry too much. You're a part of it by default. Jin is your cousin, after all. His mother was one excellent fighter.

I'm sorry.

[She rolls her eyes.]

Don't lump me in with those megalomaniac jerks. I loved Aunt Jun dearly. ...But her taste in men kinda sucked.

[Which is why she's totally got a tsundere crush on Lili.]

[He lets out a dejected sigh with his hand to his forehead. While what Asuka said is true, there's no denying that, but he was stuck in the middle of it and had to adapt to keep the peace, which often doesn't work.]

Yes, yes, I know about their annoying little habits. Jun...heh, I'll agree she's a wonderful person, but...oh never mind. I don't know what she saw in him either.

[As long as he was adopted into it and not born, Asuka will cut Lee a lot of slack.]

Aunt Jun was... unique. She had a habit of seeing the good in people when nobody else could. She saw something in Kazuya... but now that she's gone, I'm afraid he cut whatever good she saw out of himself.

[She chews on her lip for a moment. Jun always told her that there was good in everyone, but for the life of her, she couldn't see how Kazuya or Heihachi could ever be considered 'good.']

[Lee has seen Kazuya on his good days and bad. Ever since Lee took over G Corporation and handed it over to Kazuya as the main CEO with Lee as the backing beneficiary, he smiles.

Even Lee knows that Kazuya has his moments but because of the rift between them created by Haihachi and Jin siding himself with the Zaibatusu, Lee keeps his distance for a reason. Both sides will eventually fall and he'll gain it all in one swoop, or at least that's the plan.]

Oh yes. She certainly had a talent for that. Interestingly, have you thought to consider that maybe you have it too? You do look a lot like her. Jun was and excellent friend to have. Although she saw nothing in me.

[He shrugs at this while keeping his smile.]

Ah, but you must remember, there has to be balance. Jun was Kazuya's balance.

Yeah... and what is he without her? Jin hasn't been the same after she vanished either...

[Damn she misses her aunt.]

[Lee's shoulders fell slightly in thought and wondered that very same thing.]

He's still my brother. Even without her, he needs someone to lean on even if he's too proud to admit it. Jin, yes, I worry about him too.

[He exhales and lifts his head with his shoulder's back, putting on that brave face that he everyone knows.]

Cheer up. He's still young yet. Once this whole business with the Devil Gene business done and over with, it'll be okay.

[A pause...]

You are familiar with the Devil Gene, yes?

[She furrows her brow and sighs a bit.]

A little. [Not really, but still.]

[Lee smiles and shakes his head.]

Me too.

[Which was a lie but hey, not everyone had to know about it if they didn't want to learn about it.]

I just build robots.

... My sincerest condolences, Kazama-san.

[Asuka never thought she'd be happy to see Yoshimitsu, mainly because the vibe his sword gave off was unsettling, but here he was, and she was indeed glad to see him.]

Th-thanks. Just... augh, that CREEP.

[It could possibly be because Yoshimitsu, despite being a [x]-year old grown man, wasn't exactly likely to get his mack on with her.]

I... can only offer the possibility that this turn of events was not ment to be taken seriously. A jest, if you will.

[...That or the fact that he has a sword and a reputation for standing up for the oppressed.]

Yeah, well I'm not laughing.

[Huff.]

I can imagine that you are not, Kazama-san. Few would find any charm or endearing qualities in such a plan... save possibly for Twilight-fans...

[Part of being a ninja very much versed in the cybernetic world and its ways of warfare, is being exposed to the darker, seedier sides of the information superhighway.

So many pages of girls proclaiming their undying love for stalker vampires, Kazama-san. So many..]

She's not happy regarding a certain ending.

Sliiides on in.

Hay you. :3

Her reaction...priceless. :3
