BK feathered his hands over the guitar, running his palm along the edge. He'd bought it with what remained of his funds, the acoustic feel being prevalent to his attitude these days. The motel he'd found himself in was just shitty as all the ones he stayed in while he fought in war-torn Europe. The door, still open behind him, led out into the hallway where several of his peers resided.

He sat on his bed- one of two in this shithole- and would start to play, singing a little with the music.

HE didn't hate the people here, just the circumstance. Two to a room? Fuck that. BK wasn't a terribly whiny guy, so he didn't say anything. But he liked his privacy and staying in a room with one other just wouldn't give him that. So...he was stuck enjoying what few creature comforts the large male could, when he could.

"Hmm....hmmmmmm...."

He would try to play gentle, trying hard not to wake any afternoon nappers....letting out a sigh, he stopped, nearly done, and stuck the instrument back in his case.

"Should have stayed with the Parralel's fifth division. Least I had my own quarters...."

Polly walked in unannounced, stopping at the door when she saw some dude playing a guitar. She'd nod her head with the song a little, and when he was finished she'd give him a polite amount of clapping.

"Not bad, next do Wonderwall." She teased before shutting the door and tossing the two swords on her back on the opposite bed to him.

He looked up, hand stopping right at the end as she started clapping. His eyes flicked over her form as she tossed her stuff on the bed. Zipping up the case he gave an easy chuckle.

"I don't usually do requests. Though I don't know that one anyway....you're my room mate, I assume?"

Y'know, what with the bed crashing.

"Roommate?" She brought a hand up to cover he giggle. "Honey, we got like two rooms for everyone." She stressed that last part. They were all roommates.

"Hope you're not shy." She winked at him as she unzipped her hoodie to toss that on the bed as well.

Well shit.

"Ah...nah, no shyness here. Glad someone told me that, though, before I moved my whole life here. Oh....wait."

He let out a small smile. Everything he owned was in his duffle and that guitar case.

"Those are nice blades....you practice, I take it?"

The grand daddy of all stupid questions, unbeknownst to him.

"Oh yeah, all the time!"

Not that she actually needed the practice with her skill set. But practice and talent would always rise above those that rested on their laurels.

She'd drop down to her knees and crawl halfway under the bed as she tried to fish out her bag of stuff.

He'd stand and move over next to "her" bed.

"Can i see one?"

She stops what she's doing for a second as if considering it.

"The swords?"

"Yeah. Just one."

His hands were in the pockets of his sweatpants- but he hadn't held a sword since Europe, and only at a time in dire need. He practiced with them and the pole....not that he compared to the owner, he was sure.

"Just as long as you don't try and stab me until I'm standing up."

She said playfully as she snatched the strap of her bag that was tucked all the way in the back. With a small sound of effort she'd shimmy her way out from under the bed.

He let out a little, light hearted laugh as he picked one up.

He'd draw it, look at it, and point it at a wall.

"Nice weight. But I have to ask- why fight with these instead of a gun, or with your abilities?"

Assuming she had one, of course.

"Why not?"

She asked as she stood up, tossing the bag onto the bed before she began to rummage through it. Pulling out clothes.

"Besides, with two swords I can make sure to give my opponent one to make the fight fair."

Assuming they took her offer.

He half turned back.

"What do you mean, fair fight? You think most people would struggle with blades?"

BK never aimed to be the sharpest tool in the shed- and he was clearly under-estimating her abilities with the knife.

"Well yeah. An unarmed enemy against one with a sword is clearly not fair. They can refuse if they want, but that's on their honor then."

She pulled out a new shirt and pair of jeans from the bag, leaving the rest of the clothes as a mess on the bed.

Interesting. He gave a half smirk.

"I see..."

He would cock a brow.

"But what if you run into someone unarmed that can....say....swallow a school whole? I'd say its pretty obvious these baby's weren't of much use back then."

He'd sheath it and hand it back. He didn't mean that as an offensive statement, just questioning her commitment to their one-sided victory.

"The offer is theirs to refuse."

She said before snapping her fingers.

"Turn around."

He cocked an eyebrow, then grinned as he seemed to "begrudgingly" turn around.

"Now who's shy?"

"It's for your own good."

She continued teasingly as she made to quickly change into something that wasn't sweaty from training.

"Ahh, See, I feel it's the other way round. But, since you're the one holding the pointy death sticks I suppose I can stomach a little wall time."

He would scratch the back of his neck.

"Can I....ask you a question?"

"Yes, I would actually slash your eyes for peeping."

She giggled, as if that was his question.

He laughed in turn.

"Damn, well, there goes all my fun."

He would look over the walls.

"Maybe you're privy, maybe not but....do we have any clue who did this? Is there anybody even looking?"

"Obviously."

Was she dressed? He'd glance back. If she was still...undressed, he'd face forward again promptly but otherwise would turn back.

"I didn't ask what did this- the Empire is a collective entity. I'm curious who did it. What the name or identity or look of the guy or girl who literally tore apart the school is."

He caught her just as she was adjusting everything to be presentable!

"It was Rian. Pale red head dude.  They say he's nearly unstoppable!"

The excitement in her voice was unmasked.

He drew his hands back into his pockets....and though he seemed calm, his toes curled against the ground, a slight creak emanating from the boards as he pressed against them.

"And do we know where he is? Anything about sightings and what nots?"
