Oh. Don't think that was in the textbook.
-
[i] He grins, showing a perfect set of white teeth. Red chimes in;[/i] "He made sure of that."
-
[b]He nods towards Red[/b] You still never told me how or why [i]you're[/i] here. And then this guy shows up and answers basically any reasonable question. Come on now.
-
[i]Ronin chuckles, and Red flips him off before looking at Nobody.[/i] "I was betrayed by someone I trusted. She sold me out, had me tied up, and tortured. 5 broken ribs, 4 fingers broken, fractured face, broken arm."
-
And then just tossed you out for dead?
-
"No, I escaped and tried to kill her."
-
I take it that I found you in the aftermath of that?
-
"Yeah, turns out the bitch could rip apart space and time." [i]Lance straightens up at that.[/i] "What was her name?" Red: "I've always called her Jinx." [i] Lance nods and sips his drink.[/i]
-
Is that why you hate people so much?
-
"No, not why dumbass." [i] Ronin chuckles.[/i] "I'm surprised you don't know more about your girlfriend." [i]Red gives him a death stare.[/i]
-
[b]Nobody turns bright red and downs the rest of his drink[/b]
-
[i] He smiles and lays a hand on the hilts of his swords.[/i] Red: "So, gonna tell me about the worlds three most powerful swords? Because I know next to nothing about them." Ronin: "and we're gonna keep it like that. Rain is a nice Ninjato. Too short for me though."

-
[i] Ronin's eyes get a bit of a hard edge to them, and he turns his attention to Nobody.[/i] "How much do you know about Red?"
-
Other than the fact that she hates me, little.
-
"Let's start with her sword. All red, she calls it Rain, and she calls herself Red. You know what the equals together right? Red Rain. Now, what could Red Rain possibly be, hmm?" [i] Ronin gazes at Red, and she glares back.[/i] "You don't know a fücking thing about me."
-
[b]He focuses on Ronin[/b] She's a mercenary?
-
"You didn't answer my question."
-
What would Red Rain be besides a killer?
-
"Red Rain is blood."
-
I understood that, but it's implying death isn't it?
-
"Essentially. And she's an assassin. One of the most efficient assassins in the U.S. A silencer, as her mentor calls her. Excuse me, called." [i] Red grits her teeth and clutches her glass with a death grip.[/i]
-
[b]He sighs[/b] So much for staying away from death.
-
"But that's not what makes her so deadly." [i] Red crushes the glass in her hand, glaring at Ronin.[/i] "Shut up." [i]Ronin laughs and it's like something inside Red snaps. In a flash she leaps across the table, her sword seeming to appear in her hand, lunging at Ronin. In a blur, much, much faster than Red, Ronin holds the olive green katana in his hand with the dragon head hilt. It seems to be normal. He horizontally crosses the blade across his body and catches her stab, the point of the blade on the flat of his. An impressive maneuver.[/i]

[b]Nobody jumps back slightly, startled[/b] You two are gonna get us kicked out. How 'bout we all just calm down, and talk like civilized beings?
