Minato | Atsuro | 025
[It's a pretty chill day in the city, and Minato has his hands tucked in his pockets as per usual, headphones on and listening to music.
He's pondering very difficult choices: should he get an ice cream cone? It is ridiculously hot to his mind right now.
Should he get something healthier?
Or should he maybe avoid that demon coming at him--
Yeah, he should do that.
I lied, it's not a chill day. It's a day in the lockdown, and while Minato seems to think things are pretty chill, he should really avoid dying.
Even if he's done that once already.
Atsuro, don't mistake one chill blue-haired protag wearing headphones for another in the lockdown--]

Meanwhile, Atsuro's split up from his buddies for a little bit, mostly by accident. At first, it's the hair that catches his eye.]
...Huh? But isn't...
[oh wait. That's not his MC-kun. He's about to move on when he realises that there's a demon making a beeline to the blue-haired dude. And Atsuro's not gonna leave some poor defenseless kid to fend for himself.
Cue running towards Minato, COMP out.]
Hey! Incoming demon! I'll take care of it...!
no subject
But Minato blinks placidly, tilting his head.]
Oh--thank you.
[He seems so unbothered at the idea of demons attacking him, but that could be because of the sword at his side and the Evoker tucked under his coat.
Still, he's not going to stop Atsuro if he wants to, so knock yourself out. : |b]
no subject
He's used to panicking civilians...so he's a little confused.]
Aren't you going to run?
[he asks, even as he summons his Badb Catha and Orthrus, as he puts himself between Minato and...idk man the Orobos? WHY NOT.]
no subject
[though the summoning demons trick is cool.
He approves very much, nodding and tilting his head.
Oh wait that didn't really answer the question, so a little belated--]
So no.
no subject
[and please, Minato, the summoning trick is far more PG13 than shooting yourself in the head.]
no subject
[It's totally PG-13 to shoot yourself in the head, shut up--
But yeah he just takes a step back.]
Ah, look out--!
[don't forget about the battle!]
no subject
...Whoops!
[Oh yeah about that.]
Human flesh... [or blah blah blah demons]
Badb Catha, Orthrus! Attack it!
[in the meantime Atsuro's just gonna rush forward fists swingin' and all that too. If you're gonna help now might be a good time, Minato, especially since a couple other demons are appearing, drawn to ~battle~]
no subject
He doesn't hesitate to slip his Evoker out from under his uniform coat and brings it up to his temple.
Yes, this is normal, don't ask.]
Beelzebub!
[Some fire will take care of those other demons, so you can focus on your battle, Atsubro : |b]
no subject
He would've missed it all if he hadn't happened to turn around to yell]
...Over there!
[and then it goes click in his head bc GUN. HEAD. WHAT.]
H-hey don't...!
[he's pretty frozen though. Staring at you bro. He's seen some strange things so far in the lockdown but seeing someone shoot themselves in the head, come out perfectly fine, and fucking hell what is that!?]
no subject
Alas, he can never be that lucky, and then that, being Beelzebub of course, is merrily setting demons on fire. Minato glances over to Atsuro, then back to the remaining demons (a highly diminished number) and lifts his sword.]
I'm fine! I'll explain later--
[And then he's dashing in to slash at one of the remaining. Come on, manly man.]
no subject
It takes Atsuro a moment, but, hey, demons.]
Huh!? Al-alright! We have to take care of this first...!
[whoop de doo there is a scrimmage lalala and then they win not too much the worse for wear. Once the demons go back into the COMP, Atsuro turns to face Minato.]
That's...not a COMP, but was that a demon...? Who are you...!?
no subject
Oh but right, explanations.]
Oh, sorry. I'm Minato. Arisato Minato. It's nice to meet you.
[this is going to go slowly, but he picked out what (he thinks) is the most important piece...!]
no subject
[He hasn't forgotten the whole gun to head thing by the way.]
So...let me guess. That wasn't a normal gun, was it?
no subject
[He delivers this entire line with a perfectly straight face and without a moment's pause.
But then he blinks.]
So...you summoned actual demons earlier?
no subject
give atsuro a sec to process all that.]
...Huh. An Evoker? Physical manifestation of your psyche...?
[see the thing is you'd have to have been living under a rock not to recognise that as an actual demon. Froooooooowwwwwwns.]
So...What you summoned, that wasn't a demon?
no subject
No, it wasn't. Like I said, it was just part of my personality given form. [that is not what you said, bro--and yes, my personality is a giant bug, what of it]
I'm more impressed that you can summon real demons. How do you do that...?
no subject
Huh...I don't really get it, but whatever that was, it was really strong...!
And the demons? With the COMP, of course!
[okay sorry but he's got to ask]
Sorry, but...where have you been all week?
no subject
Though you can have some deadpan lineface in response to that.]
I've been in Japan.
[Yeah.]
But I've seen some people with those COMPs. It seems dangerous to sell technology that lets you summon demons.
[is he serious or joking? the world will never know!]
no subject
Hahaha... That's one way to put it. It's kind of a huge problem...
[like yo the world is ending problem.]
I'm surprised you didn't realise they were all demons, though.
no subject
Well, I thought they were shadows at first...
I don't think I've ever met an actual demon, now that I think about it. Do they talk?
[o:!]
