desert life au!

[anenemies]

Oh no. I've taken a wrong turn.

[Monotone and said to no one.

This is probably a bad thing! It's still preferable to the immediate threat of raiders who he definitely didn't go out of his way to steal from and piss off, so even though Kagami don't recognize this area of the Wastes he fled to in his panic to outrun them, maybe he can take two seconds to sit and take a breather. He retrieves his spoils proudly and eats, while the sun, unforgiving, illuminates him.]

...I'll need to find shelter now that mine's been destroyed. This suuuucks.

[Maybe he could tag along with some nomads, or find an abandoned encampment. But anything abandoned wouldn't be much use for him, would it? As Kagami eats, and the adrenaline dies down, he starts to get a better look at his surroundings. The way he lost the raiders feels almost too convenient. Hm. He stores the rest of the food and water in his satchel he earned legitimately for later, and reluctantly stands back up to explore.]

[nohty]

Shuddup!! Stay right the fuck there-!

[ Because guess who actually does know how to get to him and is trying to run around the back of the rock formation where the way up is-- ]

[anenemies]

Eek!

[Kagami backtracks to climb back down…but that would lead him right to Noh! He scrambles back to where he proudly stood mere moments ago. He could try jumping, but…]

It’s so high! I don’t want to jump down if I can avoid it!

[nohty]

Shoulda thought of that before ya pissed me off-!

[ But if he wants to jump off the rock and break a leg Noh won't complain-- ]

[anenemies]

I can make it up to you—?

Wow! You’re so skilled at climbing! [Maybe he can run past her?]

[nohty]

[ Yes please go ahead and try, she'll swing for his legs-- ]

Hold still ya rat-!

[anenemies]

Do you really feel that w-- Fuck!

[The world is spinning! That's not good! He gasps as his back hits the rock and he stares up at the sky.

Since he figures he's screwed, he'll use his last resort: he smiles his most charming smile up at Noh.]

Now I understand why Godlings are so feared!

[nohty]

Fuck yeah we are! Shoulda thought of that before you went all up in my territory ya lil dick.

[ Kagami is down and he has that stupid smile on his face again. The urge to kick him is building...so she's just going to do that. Kick to his hip!! not a very hard one though ]

You either got shit fer brains or sum real balls o' steel for coming back here.

[anenemies]

My dick isn't--

[It doesn't hurt much, but it does cut him off in surprise! He squints, trying to meet her eyes despite the sun glaring in his.

Is that...a look of respect???]

Maybe I have both. They're not mutually exclusive~

[nohty]

..........

Ya look way more prouda that then you should, rat.

[ Good lord. Maybe she should kick him again?? ]

[anenemies]

I'm cuter than a rat. Don't you agree? And what's not to be proud of, you complimented my bravery!

[nohty]

I dunno, rat at least I can eat. That makes it more useful than you.

[ This boi, Noh swears. She's pretty sure she didn't compliment him at all!! ]

You got a death wish or somethin'?? Most people with any sense don't go pickin' fights with Godlings. How you know I ain't already killed ya?

[anenemies]

Oh, but I'm much more useful in a lot of other ways.

[Does he mean that in a pervy way or non pervy way? Maybe both?]

Wha? If you already killed me, would I be talking to you? ...Am I dreaming?

[nohty]

[ And here Noh is starting to wonder if maybe this weirdo has brain damage. She's going to kick him again for good measure. ]

Are you high?! I don't understand you!

[anenemies]

[Kagami winces and tries to get back up.]

No! I’m not high! Mental clarity is important if I’m going to survive! I want your food!

[nohty]

Why the hell would I give you any of my food?!

[ SIR???? ]

[anenemies]

[…Time to try a different tactic.]

Because I like you?

[nohty]

[ K A G A M I ...... ]

What???????

[ does this guy have brain damage, what is even going on here anymore ]

[anenemies]

Yep. [She hasn’t killed him yet! That’s good.]

Ever since my eyes met yours I can’t stand the thought of living anywhere else. You’re strong, you have a cute face and you’re more interesting to talk to than any raiders or nomads.

[Trying to slowly roll away from her…]

[nohty]

--Fuck you! Yer makin' fun of me, aren't you??

[ No one in their right mind claims to like a Godling, especially not based on their looks. "A cute face," he says, like Noh's eyes haven't been the cause of every hardship in her entire life. ]

[anenemies]

...There are better ways to make fun of you if that was my intention. You're not very smart for one-- oh! Is it because you've fallen for me? Is that why you've been so merciful?

[nohty]

[ YOU KNOW WHAT, Kagami deserves another kick to the side for that. ]

[anenemies]

[Ow!!! Kagami winces in pain.]

I might die...

[He's gonna reach for one of Noh's ankles and try to pull her down.]

[nohty]

Good, ya deserve iii--yyaaah-!

[ Oops, should have been more careful. Kagami successfully yanks her foot, sending Noh crashing down onto her poor bum. ]

[anenemies]

[Not her bum! Kagami laughs softly and stands up to gloat, looking far too proud of himself.]

Godlings aren’t so fearsome after all! Why don’t you take a break here?

[He’ll pat her on the head just to to rub salt in the wound and starts scaling down the rocks.]

[nohty]

[ This little shit?? The pat to her head makes Noh freeze just long enough for him to get a few strides ahead--but when she realizes that, she lets out a growl of frustration and starts to sprint after him, aiming to follow him down the rocks just far enough that she can leap off and tackle him to the ground. ]
