The Tavern 3.0

[Uchiha Kooji]

He stares directly into her eyes. His edo eyes are piercing. After a couple minutes, he blinks and shakes his head "You dont have to lie to me yknow"

 

[AlexUchina]

Kurochi: I don't know

 

[Uchiha Kooji]

Kooji could see that pushing the issue further would get him nowhere so he stands up and heads for the door. "Im gonna go be in the snow. Its...relaxing". and just like that he disappears into the blizzard outside.

???: Id stay away from him

A voice from behind the bar in the corner breaks the silence. When Kurochi turns her head to see where the voice came from, she sees that its Ken, sulking in the corner.

 

[AlexUchina]

Kurochi: Let me guess....cause he is dead?

 

[Uchiha Kooji]

Ken laughs a little followed by a cough. He speaks in a very tired, weary voice "Ohhnooonono nothing like that. Things just tend to fall apart around that boy. Hes trouble..."

There is a rustling from upstairs

 

[AlexUchina]

Kurochi: uhh...what was that?

 

[Uchiha Kooji]

Ken shrugs it off as if it didnt matter as he takes a sip from the cup that she didnt see before. There is not another sound from upstairs for a while before they can hear footsteps walking. After a couple minutes, Kaz walks down the stairs looking like he had just woken up. His green hair was matted to his head on one side and his eyes barely opened. He trudges over to Kurochi and and gives her a hug without saying anything and thensits at the bar, motioning to Ken "Coffee please..."

 

[AlexUchina]

Kurochi: -looks at kaz then at ken-

 

[Uchiha Kooji]

After Kaz gets his coffee and takes a sip, he spins his seat around to face Kurochi and smiles weakly "Hello you"

 

[AlexUchina]

Kurochi: Hi there

 

[Uchiha Kooji]

He smiles and says in a slightly more cheery voice "I haven't seen you in quite some time. What have you been keeping yourself busy with?" What came out as small talk was genuine interest. He didnt realize it at the time however

 

[AlexUchina]

Kurochi: Well if you call staying in my room for a long time avioding you and kooji busy...then yea

 

[Uchiha Kooji]

He is slightly taken aback from the response and frowns a bit. "Avoiding me?" He says almost to confirm he heard her correctly

 

[AlexUchina]

Kurochi: Not in a bad way....kooji wanted me to find information from you but I didn't want to do it.

 

[Uchiha Kooji]

Kaz's eyes widen slightly, not expecting that answer "I-...thats not good..."

 

[AlexUchina]

Kurochi: -grabs her glass of water and takes a sip- right.... -flinches and drops her glass as she holds her arm- ...

 

[Uchiha Kooji]

Kaz instinctively jump up a little to try to help her but stops when he sees that she is ok so it seems. "Is it your curse mark?"

 

[AlexUchina]

Kurochi: yea...but its fine... -can feel it spreading a little and looks at him- just irrates me

 

[Uchiha Kooji]

Kaz can see that she is hiding something from her "Kurochi, can I help you with this?"

 

[AlexUchina]

Kurochi: Heh if you can stop the pain....that would help... -doesn't realize the marking was beginning to show a bit on her neck- .... -strains a bit and manages to stop the spreading-
