[Definitely paying Hanbei back. He feels a headache coming on...]

That was sarcasm. If you want the finer points of how my magic works you're going to have to make a study date. Not that it'll do you any good.

[He got his magic by eating a rock. He doesn't actually know too much about it all or how magic works. He may not be known for his smart decisions. Circling around behind Sasuke he'll put his hands on the guy's shoulders and start steering him down the hall if he can.]

Let's go, shinobi.

[whatishate]

[Sasuke freezes at the physical contact and is about a second away from flipping the red-head right over his shoulder in response - except there's that mental reminder again. Stifle the damn pride.

Sometimes he can't even tell what's his pride reacting and what isn't.

He grits his teeth instead and allows himself to be pushed along. It isn't hurting anything.]

And where are you leading me?

[glorifiedtrash]

[Physical violence is a pretty natural response to Zelos. And it wouldn't be wrong to say he was purposely doing this to distract Sasuke from more questions he didn't want to answer... He had enough bullshit going on without trying to keep track of even more lies; better if he could avoid as many questions as possible.]

You said you wanted to look for this thing~. If it's signs you're wanting you've gotta have some examples! I doubt they'll let us check out the bodies, but that creepy container was still chilling in medbay last I heard. Acceptable 🎵?

[whatishate]

I've already looked at the container.

[He plants he feet firmly to the floor, halting any further pushing for the moment.]

It's different signs that I'm looking for. It won't have any chakra signatures, but any sort of energy my eyes might be able to pick up - heat or otherwise.

So far I haven't been able to pick up anything.

[glorifiedtrash]

[Zelos goes with the halt, but doesn't drop his hands just yet.]

You think you'd be able to pick that stuff out here? There's a lot of people on this ship. ...And it's pretty clear this thing's screwing with us.

[whatishate]

I don't know. But it's been requested that I try, so I will.

[He's not sure how any of his sensory abilities will work on things not from his world. They're too adjusted to chakra. Even genjutsu tended to rely on affecting the chakra of another person. It was strange, seeing humans and not being able to see their chakra pathways.]

Were you assigned anything specific?

[glorifiedtrash]

I was given the gracious order not to die. Take that as you want.

[Dropping his hands finally.]

Can you read me?

[whatishate]

Only basic heat signatures as long as you're out in the open. So no, not really.

But if you used your magic enough I might be able to figure out how to follow you based on a signature from that.

[His black glass requires attention all of a sudden, and he stops to look at it, reading the note from Armada.]

The one who assigned us together - are they a team head?

[glorifiedtrash]

No idea. That would require actual organization.

[He's not here because of any fantastic leadership that's for certain. More he's too uncaring to make waves than anything... He looks at Sasuke's black glass.]

If you've got orders for something more important, go ahead. I won't kick the bucket if you leave me alone. Promise 🎵.

[whatishate]

Armada is saying that we're not to take orders from anyone but our own team leaders.

[He gives this a moment's thought.]

I'm already following orders from my team leader. You seem like the sort of person who would either do something stupid or go laze around somewhere if left alone. So you can stay with me.

[glorifiedtrash]

[....That is entirely accurate. Owch.]

...That's cold. So is that an actual order or is this just the kindness of your heart?

[Apparently he will take orders from anyone regardless of team or rank. Maybe he's not so good at this whole pseudo-military thing.]

[whatishate]

It's because I think it's in your best interest.

[Also in his best interest would be not hitting on Sasuke's future wife former teammate.]

[glorifiedtrash]

[She started it!! Ignore the fact he's seven years older.]

...I'm touched.

[He momentarily sounds like he's going to cry. His best interest? Yeah, sure... Nothing on this ship is in his best interest.]

But fine, fine. Where do you want to start lookin for this thing? If you can imagine where a blood thirsty sadistic monster would hide out maybe that'd help.

[Hrnn... If this monster isn't just something that's been fucked over and twisted by the CDC. His empathy probably isn't lying with the side it should be here.]

[whatishate]

It's a large ship. And it depends on how intelligent the creature is.

[He doesn't know enough about their target. No one does.]

I haven't heard of any recent deaths, so it may realize that it's being hunted now. So maybe a location where there wouldn't be many crew members and it could lay low.

[glorifiedtrash]

Wouldn't those be the restricted areas.

[You know, that most of them don't have access to. This whole situation just gets better and better...!]

Well, whatever. Not my problem. How about we take a check around the hangar? Nobody's got a reason to be there unless they're stupid enough to make a run for it. Maybe we'll get lucky~.

[whatishate]

... I'll have to bring that matter up with the instructors.

[He'll leave a message when it looks like a good opportunity.]

The hangar is as good of a place to look as any.

[Come on.]

[glorifiedtrash]

Heheh. Got it!

[Following along!]

Soooo..... You and my teammate?

[This will not be a quiet trip sorry. Spill.]

[whatishate]

[He must just live to invite trouble.]

We were teammates in my world.

That's all.

[Maybe he'd left them for a few years, but they've reconciled. So you don't mess with his teammates.]

[glorifiedtrash]

Oh. Hunh. She's pretty cute~! I'm surprised you haven't made a move.

[He can get blunter if this is too subtle.]

[whatishate]

I'm not looking to be romantically involved right now.

[He has more important things to do. Like a journey of atonement and all that.]

[glorifiedtrash]

[Bullshit. You need to be an old man for that kind of stuff, denied.]

But you have thought about her like that....

[Staring. So blatantly. Cough up the details Sasuke.]

[whatishate]

No.

[Though he knows she's thought that way about him.]

[glorifiedtrash]

So you don't mind if I take a shot.

[whatishate]

Only if you don't mind the possible destruction of your manhood.

[glorifiedtrash]

By you or by her.
