Night 37: Main Hall 2-West

[himetsuru.livejournal.com]

Coming to a cross hallway, Falis stopped and knelt down again. In the darkness, she couldn't see where the hallway lead, nothing more than a few feet immediately in front of her. Unbeknown to her, the stairs she needed to go down to the first level were just to the right. Falis had the same feeling as she had back at that dead end, so she didn't think there was anything down that hallway.

Seeing some very faint light to the left, the hunter headed that way. Once she found light, she could get her bearings.

Laughing as Tsubaki twisted easily out of his hold, Kon asked playfully "What's wrong gorgeous? I thought you said you liked forward guys?" He was well aware that was the most liberal interpretation possible of her notes on the board but she had been the one to respond to his message in the first place and to set up a meeting. If she didn't want to see him somewhere underneath the denial she would never have told him her name over the board let alone stuck around now. The fact that he hadn't given her a choice in the latter didn't occur to him.

"What say when we're done with the rescue mission we find some place private so I can show you what I meant earlier about sharing my experience?" If any of Young Justice were here with him Kon would be heading for a beating or a taser but Tsubaki had yet to even snap at him. So he liked testing boundaries, it wasn't a bad thing. More of a 'boldly go where no man has gone before' sort of attitude. That seemed doubly true in Tsubaki's case now that he thought about it. Which made things way more fun.

She turned more fully, holding up a hand as though to forestall any more touching or talking. “You’re too flattering,” Tsubaki tried, in an attempt to stop more ‘compliments’ from flying her way. “And I’m sure I never said that.”

In fact, she didn’t particularly like or dislike any kind of guy, for the sole reason that even when she wasn’t in a situation where she was all alone without her technician, or other Shibusen students, or her own weapon forms, she didn’t think much about romance. Liz had tried once or twice to get her to join in on ‘hunk hunting’, but… There were other things to do. It must’ve been nice for Superboy if he had the time for that; she didn’t consider it the same for her.

Not to mention, this was the worst possible time to be flirting with someone. She was glad the darkness would hide most of her uncomfortable flush.

“Let’s say we stay focussed on the first part for now,” she said, then switched gears. “That’s right, I should thank you for wanting to come. You didn’t have to.”

Kon moved closer to lean against Tsubaki's raised hand, saying "It's my duty as a hero to help those in need. And there's no way I couldn't want to keep a girl like you company, no matter what the circumstances are."

Fun aside, she was right. They needed to hurry and stop those experiments before anyone was hurt. Accepting her chastisement with a nod and a rueful smile he said, "Yeah, you're right. Focus on the job and you can thank me later." Winking he continued, "I'm sure we can manage to keep our hands off each other for that long."

It helped that he knew how it felt to have people trying to experiment on you without giving you any say in the matter. All he had to do was remember when he'd broken out of CADMUS shortly after his creation and there went the urge to continue teasing Tsubaki. He'd have plenty of opportunities to have fun later.

Diversion tactics: success.

After so long with Black☆Star, providing distractions was almost second nature, unfortunately. She sighed on the inside. Had Superboy even been paying attention all this time? Either he was so skilled he could split his attention between the dark hallways and her, or… he’d just been determined to bug her.

Thank him later? Right… She didn’t like the sound of that.

Dropping her hand and readjusting the other’s hold around the makeshift bag, she turned back to the mouth of the hallway they were approaching, pausing at the corner of the nurse’s station. “It should be the second door,” Tsubaki said, lowering her voice. She pointed.

Back to the mission.
