What happened basically, was after the ordeal in Sakura Alley, Étaoin returned to that one weapons store, and decided to finally buy the blade that they had their feline purple eyes on. Only now, they were in a situation and had no alibi for this ordeal. Usually, they could be like; Oh this? I was threatened to do this, it is not my fault good sir! That was mostly because, ninety percent of the time when Étaoin had physically hurt someone, they were in fact on a mission to claim the reward given for said quest. This one was different, because there was no mission, and yet Étaoin just wanted to try out the newly looted blade, that had a deafening effect to it, the young mage wanted to test that quirk out to it’s best potential, and agreeably so did not think about the aftermath and the consequences said actions could possibly bring upon them.
“Well… shit.” Standing there in their slightly splattered outfit, cat ears and black beret askew. They still were not sure on why they were wearing this outfit, but that’s a topic for another time. Étaoin let out a deep sufferable sigh. “I am so so, so screwed!”
Even though they were in the quartet, sometimes things do indeed get out of control, what with the gang and mafias, but other times, like this one, it is very different, and that is due to the fact that Étaoin was not apart of any said gang or mafia, and well even though they enjoyed hurting people, and now with this brand spanking new weapon they could have the time of their life, Étaoin still had to think about the effect it would have on the Syndicate, and it was only now they took this into thought, somehow they had to get out of this and not get caught in the process by the law.
“Crap crap…” Glancing around the shipment yard, hiding their dagger in the sheath around their thigh, then back to the two bodies leaning against one of the containers visibly panicking for once in their life, at doing something bad which was surprisingly strange, yet understandable. “Man, Kisei or Azu would know what to do… Why did I do this alone?”
To put it simply, yes Étaoin was crying. Not from the fear but instead it was from the adrenaline of being able to test their blade out finally, but also because they were in big trouble and needed to find a way out of this grave they’ve finally dug for themselves.
When there is no JEALOUSY."
