To my fellow Knights:

It looks like today is much the same as yesterday. If there is anyone present amongst you who count themselves a member of the Knights and hail from Terca Lumereis as well, then I would like to make a request: If it is at all possible, I wish to convey a message to my subordinates back home.

Sodia, Witcher; if the two of you are present, then I may as well deliver this message personally.

[ ooc; And before 4th wall ends, here is ~~Guy~~ Flynn Scifo. This guy (lolpun*shot*) will be okay with everything but, uh, spoilers beyond Zaude and gd. the fact that Sodia stabbed Yuri. Do not tell him, omg. ;_;... um. I think that about covers it. ]

Repede prefers to be with Yuri, so requesting for Yuri to loan him to me would be out of the question.

Okay.

[ aaaand aaactiiioooooooooooooooon ♥ ]

[ True to his word, Flynn stands by the front door, waiting for Ino. As in, literally stands. He really sees no point in sitting down at the moment. ]

[ It only took a few minutes, just like she promised. She knows the way to Yuri's apartment by heart, so it isn't too difficult to guess which one is Flynn's.

She raps her knuckles lightly against the door. ]

[ That was quick. But he supposes Ino lives nearby, anyway. He opens the door for the lady and then greets her with a smile. ]

Miss Ino?

[ He holds the door open for her, much like he would for Estellise if she'd been the one he was ushering into his makeshift apartment at that moment. ]

[ Alright, she's swooning already. You're so much cuter in person, Flynn. ]

That's me.

[ She smiles and sweeps inside, glancing around what is obviously a freshly squatted apartment before turning back towards him and holding out a hand. ]

It's nice to meet you, Flynn. Well, in person, I guess.

[ Flynn accepts that hand with a smile and a nod. ]

It's nice to meet you as well, Miss Ino.

[ He gestures towards the sofas then, to offer a seat. Thankfully, when he'd gotten the apartment, everything was decently in order. He hasn't had much of a chance to organize things, and had no desire to do so as well since he had no real idea if he was going to stay there.

Oh, and the bruise on his face? Ino may notice how it's just a little less severe. Knightly gauntlets and all over Yuri's handgear... ]

Please have a seat.

Alright.

[ She sounds almost skeptical, because--well. So polite! So gentlemanly! Ino definitely isn't used to this kind of treatment, especially after hanging out with Yuri for so long. It was hard enough to get him to not let the door slam shut in people's faces.

She sits, just as instructed, then pats the cushion next to her, an invitation for him to sit down too. ]

Here. I'll take care of that black eye for you.

[ He nods and takes a seat beside Ino; but he makes sure to keep some distance from her. ]

Thank you, again.

[ He doesn't see any blastia on Ino, and he thinks to watch then and see how she would heal that bruise on his face. ]

It's no big deal. Yuri was worse off than you, anyway.

[ Never one to put much merit on personal space, she scoots closer and twists towards him, cupping her hands together and holding them above his bruised eye. Her hands glow light blue, he'll notice, a result of the chakra she's channeling into the injury.

Just a few moments, and he's all better! ]

There.

I can imagine, but he deserves it for being as careless as he was.

[ When it's done, Flynn brings up a hand to lightly touch the previously sore skin around his right eye, and is pleasantly surprised to see it fully healed. ]

Thank you, again. [ He laughs lightly for repeating himself, but he means it, really. ]

What kind of magic is that, though? I don't think you use blastia, and I suppose I'm not someone who would know how the artes in my world worked, but it certainly looks different from what I've seen before.

See, I knew he deserved it.

[ She gives his eye one last cursory visual inspection before leaning back against the cushions, totally casual and at ease. Strangers were never really a problem for her.

Besides, she kind of feels like she knows Flynn already, what with all the stuff Yuri's told her. ]

It's chakra, actually, not magic.

Chakra... I suppose pursuing that topic won't get me anywhere. I'm a Knight, not a mage.

[ He clears his throat and thinks-- would it be alright to change the subject so abruptly? It's okay, he supposes... he did want to know, right? ]

Miss Ino, Yuri tells me he hasn't gotten into 'much' trouble here. I'd like to hear from you what he's been doing here. It looks like... I have a lot to catch up to with regards to that.

Let's see...

[ She tilts her head to the side for a moment, as if thinking. Yuri... hadn't gotten into as much trouble as she would've expected of his type, actually. ]

He's actually been pretty good lately. There was this curse that had him bleeding all over the apartment, but that really wasn't his fault. Ever since Estelle left, he's been behaving.

Bleeding... all over the apartment? Was he hurt?

[ And he conveniently skips everything else Ino had said for that one part. He's still new to the city though, so he doesn't realize yet that... well, the curse is really just that. He looks genuinely concerned here. ]

Oh... no.

[ She's a little baffled by his concern, but--that's right. He's new. And way too nice. ]

It was just a curse. Like today, and there's really nothing you can do about them except wait for them to go away. [ And, a little more gently: ] He was fine.

[ And he sighs here in relief. ]

But it looks like these curses will one day cause him to get hurt, if he hasn't already.

[ And he realizes here that uh- well, yeah, he overreacted back there. ]

I'm sorry. It's just- when it comes to Yuri, I know I have to worry just a bit more. He makes it hard to rest easy when I just know he'll keep trying to do things on his own and bearing the burden when he can just because he thinks it's better that way.

[ And Yuri; the single person who makes Flynn sigh a lot. He probably sounds like a mother, or worse, a wife saddled with a gung-ho soldier for a husband. ]

The curses are kind of unavoidable, unfortunately.

[ Yeah--it does sound like that. But luckily, Ino finds it pretty adorable, and she tucks a smile behind her hand. ]

Mm, he's pretty stubborn, huh?

[ She can listen to this cuteness all. day. long. ]

[ he just takes that first statement with dignified silence; maybe, he'll find a way around that. He'll have to look... somehow. ]

Pretty might not be the right word for it. Very. He's the kind who would really lay down his life without a second thought if it meant saving a single person. It's a somewhat envious trait, but one that worries his friends.

[ He kind of stops there as he recalls Zaude, and how Yuri had avoided one life-threatening situation only to fall into another, literally. ]

But he's a good friend.

Yeah, trust me, I know the type.

[ Her smile turns fond, and she folds her hands in her lap, looking across the room rather than at Flynn. She's ~reminiscing~. ]

We've been stuck here for... a long time now. Like, eight months maybe? To be honest, I knew Estelle better than I did him, but now that she's gone, I guess...

[ Shrug. She doesn't really know where she's going with this. ]

You're right. He's a really good friend.

You know someone like him?

[ He almost waits for Ino to continue, but then he realizes it must be Estellise... ]

Was it Lady Estelli- Estelle? [ He corrects himself for her sake. ]

No one quite like him.

[ She laughs, because it's true. Yuri is... unique. Very unique. Then she turns her head to look at Flynn, raising her eyebrows at him. ]

You know Estelle too?

For your sake, I'm glad.

[ He laughs a little- and... the question honestly surprises him. Why would he... Oh. ]

I assumed it was Lady Estellise-- Estelle because of Yuri. If Yuri knows her, then- I suppose it must be the same one I know.

I could mistaken...

[ She laughs again, glad that Flynn is at least... honest about Yuri, even if he seems naive about everything else, then points to her head. ]

Pink hair, green eyes? Kind of flat-chested?

Flat-chested. [ He says this absent-mindedly, in... surprise. But he catches himself quick. And is able to smile charmingly ~]

Yes. That would be Lady Estellise. Come to think of it, Yuri did mention Her Highness' being here...

I suppose I missed her.

[ There he goes again, calling her Lady Estellise. It's... weird, but not really that incongruous with Ino's impression of her. Sheltered noble isn't that big a leap from sheltered girl. ]

That's weird. She never said anything about being a lady... she told me to call her Estelle.

That would be Yuri's influence. I think it's a good thing she's managed to keep it from you.

It looks like I was the one who should have been taking a page from Yuri in this situation.

[ Too much information, he reminds himself, and stops there. ]
