[ mirrors: the morning after; backdated to the morning of 3/14 ]

[meteorstorm]

[ So this morning, you may find one Sakuta Ryuusei in the kitchen area of Casa de KRC, freshly showered and making breakfast (lots of it)

You may also find a most likely very sleepy ladypirate somewhere in the vicinity ]

Comments

[yellowhasthechest]

[It's endearing. Sort of. After you get over it.]

And the other one?

[meteorstorm]

Utahoshi Rokurou. He was murdered on Gamou's orders.

[yellowhasthechest]

Utahoshi ... you've said that name before.

[meteorstorm]

[ . . . right, I have said it before ]

He's Kengo's father.

[yellowhasthechest]

Oh.

[That's the only real reaction she can think of, for once.]

[meteorstorm]

[ I'm okay with this explanation of it ]

Ah.

[yellowhasthechest]

And the person who made your Driver?

[meteorstorm]

Emoto Kuniteru. Alias Tachibana. He's responsible for providing Kengo with the Fourze driver and switches, and creating my Meteor driver and switches. He was also one of Gamou's Twelve Apostles, Virgo.

[yellowhasthechest]

Like a double agent?

[meteorstorm]

Something like that.

[yellowhasthechest]

He's got style, I'll give him that.

[meteorstorm]

He had everyone completely fooled.

[yellowhasthechest]

The best cons always do.

[meteorstorm]

That's the thing. He wasn't, really.

[yellowhasthechest]

Then why was he on both sides?

[meteorstorm]

I'm saying he wasn't a con. I'm not even sure he would count as a double agent. Even as Virgo he went out of his way to help us on occasion, and if I'm not mistaken, everyone he sent to the Dark Nebula should still safely be in stasis on M-BUS.

[yellowhasthechest]

Makes no sense.

[meteorstorm]

[ quietly ]

He probably sided with the Zodiarts for the same reason I did. Not because he wanted to, but because he thought he had to. It would explain a lot.

[yellowhasthechest]

[Stretching and settling in against you, trying to be nonchalant.]

We all do what we have to.

[meteorstorm]

And sometimes it's misguided.
