Game 022 [Action] - Warning: Do Not Poke, Contents Under Pressure

[neverplaysfair]

[ Today, there is a one-man pride parade Joshua on a mission. A mission that just happens to involve (somehow) a little too casually strolling from Community Housing 5 to House 10. After the events in the Closed Space, Josh is going to be having a little chat with Haruki.

Feel free to intercept him along the way or be intercepted like Shiki was in her post, yes this is a little bit after that let's assume she got sidetracked and made it to the house before he did or something idk, but residents of House 10 will before long hear a knocking at their door. ]

[ It takes all too much effort for Joshua to not throw up on Sho right then and there. The loss of dignity and admitting just how disgusting the Taboo power is is not quite worth the amusement he'd get from watching the reaper deal with fresh stomach acid on his clothes. His vibe jumps in response, not even voluntarily but he's not going to let Sho know that; his skin is shining, hovering on the edge of pushing his body into an older appearance. He doesn't let his grin waver, even as his hands drift to his pockets. He's less than a hair's trigger away from his power releasing all on its own, he knows it, and the grip on his cellphone is a comfort to keep it from going even now. This is not a position he wanted to be in on an off-day; and the only reason he hasn't blasted Sho and gotten it over with was the risk of inciting Sanae's wrath. ]

Considering I'm not garbage, you'll have to be a tad more specific.

[His frequency climbs even higher, the taboo markings covering his ears and climbing up the sides of his face. He haunches over the Composer, unintentionally trying to make himself seem as big as possible. Defense mechanism and all that.]

Oh you are, but that's tangent to the point. [A snicker.] Having trouble, are we? Can't even solve for x when you're busy factoring out y.

[ That triggers something, and it's all Josh can do to keep the energy from not directly descending upon Sho's head. He deflects it, barely, splitting it to either side of Sho, maybe not even enough to avoid clipping his arms. Joshua doesn't even have the capacity to worry about that at the moment, too busy keeping his vibe under control and not summoning Hanekoma again.

Hopefully it'll be taken as a warning shot. ]

Unlike you, I've actually found ways to entertain myself here. I do in fact have more important things to think about which don't involve parsing your mathematical babble.

[ That's right, Sho. You're not important. ]

[lol what is bed? A warning shot? Sho? Never. He's taking it as an invitation, the grin turning absolutely wild.]

And here I was trying to be civil! [He laughs. It'll take more than a few Jesusbeams to take him out Josh, even if you were Composer elsewhere. Don't you remember the boss fight?]

[ It's that silly place for silly people ]

You have a very curious definition of civil, then.

[ Of course it will. But he doesn't trust his own power right now to do anything he tells it to. Sanae is way out of his league, even here, but Sho is still on the same level at best, and even a stray shot with most of Josh's power in it has a damn good chance of making Sho vanish for a week. Even if it is only to nurse his wounds. ]
