[Video - Transmission from Alpha Trion's Temple]

[The feed flicks on to reveal a rather furious looking boy with three white stripes on the left side of his hair, his unnatural gold eyes glowering at the camera. His chest is heaving as he struggles to restrain himself; if looks could kill, then the device would be dead five times over.]

Is this someone's sick idea of a joke?! How could anyone possibly think of doing something so twisted?!

[Of course, he must be referring to his appearance on Cybertron. Not hours earlier, he had been in Death City, speaking to his fellow classmates... It would only make sense for him to be so incensed, having been whisked away to a foreign planet!]

This marking on my shoulder! Why is there only one?! It's completely asymmetrical!

[... Or not. Even without the glyph directly visible, the very idea that he could be marked in such an unbalanced, terrible way... His skin should have rejected the ink to begin with!]

I demand to speak to the ones responsible for this atrocity!

I-I don't think they did it to be mean.

How could it not be?! It's intolerable! A nuisance! It makes me sick just to look at!

It makes you sick? Do you need help?

[She can grasp that much. Not so much the idea that a tattoo could do that. It doesn't look like a mystical seal. ]

Just the sight of it makes me want to vomit! It's a disgrace to the name of symmetry!

I need to remove it!

[If you can help him with that, he would definitely appreciate it.]

I, uh, I don't think you can?

Can you try just, well, covering it up?

Even if I cover it up, I still know it's there. It throws off my perfect balance entirely.

I can't stop thinking about it.

I could...I could draw one on the other side for you?

[Someone does not get it.]

Thank you, but it would make no difference. The skin would only reject the ink, and even then, it would not be the same as the original mark. If it were to glow, it would no longer match...

Oh. I...I guess you're right.

[Are you happy now you made the little girl sad? Are you?!?!]

M-maybe you could ask your First Forged to give you another one?

[No. :( But... asymmetry is a sad subject! How could anyone be happy about it?!]

The acolyte refused to answer when I asked if they would. It's... no good. I am going to be lop-sided forever.

I... don't deserve to exist.

I wouldn't be surprised if you turned away in disgust. I am a useless, hideous being... incapable of even having matching tattoos...

Edited 2013-03-12 00:37 (UTC)

Please! I, uh, you're not hideous. You're, uh, you seem very nice. And kind. And...._{please don't talk like that}.

It's true. You don't have to be kind to me.

Just... leave me on the side of the road on garbage day with the rest of the asymmetrical trash.

But. But.

But.

[She is utterly at a loss. ]

Isn't there anything I can do to help?

Thank you, but please don't waste your time on me.

I'm worthless. How could I possibly be a suitable god of death, when I can't even fix this repulsive tattoo? It's disgraceful.

I should just die.

I-it's not a waste of time. Everyone matters. Everyone counts.

[Right? She wouldn't let her father's speeches get to her. She would remember Kurenai-sensei and the others. ]

You're a god of death?

How can' you die if you're death?

[He is still sprawled on the ground, but he is at least looking up a bit now.]

Even asymmetrical pieces of garbage like me?

I am the son of Lord Death, the reigning god of death. It's not impossible for me to die, but it would be difficult.

O-of course. And, and please don't talk about yourself like that. You're not garbage.

[Right. Think, Hinata. What would Naruto say?]

Well, good. [She tries to sound more confident.] I'm glad because you shouldn't die.

[And that does it. Just like that, he's back to normal, though his cheeks are a bit red from the emotional meltdown he'd been having mere moments before

He clears his throat, straightening up.]

I apologize for not introducing myself earlier. My name is Death the Kid, though please, call me Kid.

[Well..that worked? She thinks? She's not quite sure what happened but at least he's not on the floor saying he was garbage. That's something, right?]

Kid? [That's a strange name.]

I'm Hinata. I'm just...a normal ninja. [Not like a god of death or something.]

I was named for my Honourable Father, Lord Death. To avoid confusion, I find it's easier if people call me 'Kid'.

It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Hinata.

Edited 2013-03-13 09:16 (UTC)

Oh. Kid. [She tries out a smile.] It's a nice name.

Do you, do you get along well with your father?

Thank you.

[That earns a smile in return, and he tilts his head slightly.

He didn't always see eye to eye with his father, but he held nothing but the utmost respect for him.]

I do. I can only hope that I will one day become even half as great as he is.

F-fathers can be hard to live up to.

_{Mine is disappointed in me.}

[video] how's about someone non-Whirl?

[video] But Whirl is awesome too! Also, I am sorry if I am slow, I am still fixing his icons. |D;
