[The morning finds Mithos on a trip to...the flower shop, of all places. It's for Martel (ever the lover of plants), so just shut up. Probably an odd decision to go in all this rain, but he has an umbrella handy. The rain is hardly a bother compared to an endless list of other items he can think of, mostly people.

When he returns, it is time to address some things that have gone unaddressed for too long.]

I know that you are well aware of my sister’s recent arrival. You are to go nowhere near Martel. If I see you, I will not hesitate to run you through on my blade.

[A pause, because he really can’t believe he’s about to willingly address them. With Yuan he could at least gloat, but the others... It is a necessary precaution, however.]

I am sure that many of you, with your annoying habit of finding out everything eventually, also know that Martel is presently in this world. You will all stay away from her. ...I’ve already said that I would choose the same path again if given the chance, and so I will continue to fight for and protect my sister. Consider this a generous warning.

[A while later in the day, after taking care of the above business with various enemies, he decides it is time for something more...pleasant. When he cracks open the journal again, he can’t quite keep the note of excitement out of his voice.]

Kaori, she’s here. Martel is here! I...thought you’d want to meet her.

[And afterwards, he wanders through the house to seek out his dearest sister.]

So... you haven't made any friends while you're here?

[That's... kind sad... :/

HE FEELS BAD FOR YOU NOW]

...That's none of your business. [He isn't going to lie and say no - not that he takes any issue with lying. Because he doesn't at all, especially not to someone so pathetic and annoying. It's just that verbally disowning Kaori seems...disloyal.

But seriously, what's wrong with this guy? Apparently slaughtering him last time didn't send a strong enough message.]

Well, no... but it's not a lot of fun to be alone.

[Yeah, story of his life.]

I'm not alone, I have my sister.

O-oh! Your sister's here?? Congrats, man! It's always great to have someone you care about around!

[He does not understand you, and thus will just stare stonily.]

Do you not realize that I have no desire to speak with you?

Yup! But I like talking to people and making friends, so that's where that comes from, huh? What's your name, anyway? I don't think I caught it before.

There is no need for me to introduce myself to an insignificant dog.

Well, shouldn't I know the name of the guy who hates me? Won't instill very much fear in me when someone mentions you in a passing conversation, yanno.

I didn't think it was possible, but each word that comes from your mouth is more stupid than the last.

You think so? I get that a lot!

Are you a big fan of flowers, or are they for a special someone?

[Even Mithos can infer what is implied by the phrase "a special someone" and just...no, get out.]

They're for my sister. [This response is given rather testily.

...You know what, he'd rather not waste anymore time on you, Ian. Unfortunately, he has to walk around you to get to the shop entrance and there really isn't much room to slip past. So instead he takes a step forward, continuing to glare (why up? why does it have to be up?) directly at Ian.]

Oh, I see! A little gift for her coming here, right?

[He leans back, as Mithos passes. No worries, he's only 5'4"—not nearly as threatening as most anime shonen guys here, amirite?]

I bet she'll love 'em! Good luck!

[You get a very excited thumbs up, because Ian.]

[The appropriate response to such an enthusiastic thumbs up is, of course, an icy glare over the shoulder. He knows that if he shoots some equally icy words back, Ian will only talk more, and that's the last thing he wants right now.

Turning away completely, he stalks out of the shop.]
