Appointments


 
If you wish to meet with me at a scheduled time and place, I would not be opposed to that idea.
Ensure that all details are manifest.
Peace and Long Life.


OOC Warning:
First and foremost I am a student... so please be patient with me on replies.

Since...?

[The pants were simple enough to slip into, and he gladly stepped forward at Spock's silent suggestion to lead the way. The rest of the building was like that of a traditional Japanese hotel--a ryokan. The walls were thin, the doors slid, but it wasn't hard to navigate.]
redjacketthief: (too bad)

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-10-18 08:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[Lupin huffed in amusement. Of course it was something so simple as that...

but the amusement faded when he remembered the timeline differences. It was so easy for him to forget that, even though he did have access to memories that he shouldn't and impulses that weren't his.

He nodded, soberly.]


Well, in that case, it's an honor.
redjacketthief: (casual-- bored)

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-10-18 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I can do that...

[And he began to look for the green or oolong teas that he knew were standard in these establishments. They would be no where near as robust as his lapsang souchong, but there was a required subtlety in meditation practices.

Though the actual act was hard and cooking wasn't his specialty, he could make tea well enough.]
redjacketthief: (-glasses- thoughtful)

[A nod. The Malnosso's influence on him had taught him how to work with silence, if nothing more. Lupin poured the hot water into the serving pot, as he had watched Goemon do many times, and turned to Spock with a curious look.]

So. What do you have planned with the fire?
redjacketthief: (stealthy--on radio)

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-10-19 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
I--hnn.

[It was a focused, nasal snort as he thought about Spock's words for a second. The events of June had given him more incentive to try to contact the local spirits over the last few months, but the only one that he had any success with was Kipinn. He was the wind elemental, and he seemed to be moderately friendly. It was normal for a person to have relatively decent mastery of Kipinn's teaching's after a short while, but the most that Lupin could manage so far was a gust here or there.

He knew that it was possible to muffle close sounds with those skills, once full mastery was reached. The infiltrator in him wanted to do that.

However, a recent conversation with his doctor and a friend had given him the extra push to try contacting Eferin, the fire spirit. Understanding was a little easier because he and Lupin had similar, blustering temperaments, but he hadn't been able to learn anything yet.

Ambient heat. That was his goal. For the short term, it would help keep himself and others from freezing if they had to travel during a blizzard.]


...you know, I haven't had much success on that front.
redjacketthief: (-glasses- thoughtful)

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-10-19 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
...Because of the link, right?

[And likely much more. Lupin thought over the explanation, understanding 'mastery' in a less literal sense. There was complete structuring, and then there was channeling. The latter was a tactic that he used while on a job, when his excessive energy and any sparks of fear threatened to unravel everything. He used them as fuel rather than an excuse, even when frustration mounted over any compromising factor in his groundwork.

Though, in the end, even he based his plans on rigid constructs.]
redjacketthief: (dunno if i got that)

Info is always fine~~

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-10-19 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
Tea, right...

[He turned back to check on it and, satisfied, he poured a small cup for each of them. Green tea--a sencha, if he guessed correctly--was the offered fare, and it would suit them fine.

Lupin joined Spock on the mat across from his and passed over a cup.]


We can do that. Meditate. If that helps you.
redjacketthief: @ narben (unsure-- what?)

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-10-19 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
[Lupin sat cross legged on his mat and paused mid-sip at Spock's question. He swallowed and lowered his cup, but didn't set it down.]

...I'm not in the habit of talking about myself.

[It was said calmly. His gaze never wavered for a moment as he spoke.]
redjacketthief: (-glasses- irritable)

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-10-19 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
[He knew that there was a certain catharsis in taking others into confidence and sharing worries or concerns. It took some of the burden off of his shoulders, so he didn't have to think about it as hard any longer. He knew all of this, but trust was always the problematic factor. He had Smoker as his trainer and Law as his sometimes counselor, but there were few beyond that whom he considered close enough to try that with. Fujiko was a possibility, but she was as untrusting and cagey as he was. He couldn't rely on it. He knew it.

The others he had tried to trust were the same ones with whom he had fought. That level was months in the making.

But the events in the Dome with Spock were wholly different, and he knew parts about Spock that few others did. Similarly, Spock could say the same about him. It was a rarity in any world and he didn't necessarily want to ruin it.

He took another sip of his tea, enjoying the smooth, mellow taste of it.]


I understand that, and you're right in placing yourself first. You've been through a lot lately, and you have other events that you need to process.

...Look. I know that you're not going to intentionally do anything harmful, and my issues aren't really about you. This situation is just...

It's uncomfortable for me.
redjacketthief: (thoughtful)

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-10-19 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[He noted it and filed it away, but he wasn't certain how to accept such support. The Dome was a special occasion. Neither of them knew better...but what Spock said was true. Lupin sipped his tea as well and mulled over his response as he enjoyed the simplicity of it.]

I'll remember that. It's just...difficult.
redjacketthief: @ rerun (-jigen- got my back?)

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-10-20 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
[Lupin finishes his tea as well and settles in, carefully studying Spock's movements. After a moment, he speaks up.]

What are you doing?
redjacketthief: (imitatingtheloungeking2)

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-10-20 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
[Lupin nodded, and tried to ignore the spark of uncertainty. Though they had all ready done this before, the circumstances were entirely different. They either didn't know, or they were focused on practicality.

He took a deep breath and finished off his tea. The cup was set aside, along with his lingering doubts. They would be dealt with later.

This was important, for both of them to try.]


...okay. [he said at length,] what do you need me to do?
