a; omeganet video.

[There's a new superhero face that pops up onto the screen, all in light blues and whites with a simple mask on her face and dark, curled hair falling off screen. She looks a little uncertain, pulling some of her hair over her shoulder and finger-combing it for a moment before she speaks.]

This is a little embarrassing to ask, but-- I'm new to this whole Superhero business, does anyone have any pointers? I've not gotten in any real trouble yet, but I certainly don't want to cause more trouble when I'm supposed to be helping.

b; action! anywhere between the college of the arts and venture park.

[Out of her Super uniform, Hina is just dressed in a stylish light blue sundress with a white lace bolero and a tan sunhat, walking from class to the park with her sketchbook in her purse and her phone in her hand. She was texting her brother, more than likely, and possibly could have stood to be paying a bit more attention to where she was walking.]

[Yes, Hina really should have been paying more attention to where she was walking. Because Ankh was hitching a ride in her purse, collapsed into an exhausted pile of medals and pseudo-medals. When she brushes against someone and the purse jostles, his various parts go jangling all over. He does not like it.]

Hnnggh...

[But with much effort (and a sound that's midway between a hum and a schlorp) he pulls himself back together and sticks his hand out crossly.]

Watch where you're going! Don't forget that I'm in here!

[She yelps, having definitely forgotten about her bird carry-on. She stops where she's walking and folds her phone shut, making a face.]

Ankh! I'm sorry, you were so quiet I almost did forget. Are you all right?

Hmmph!

[Almost forgot?! Ankh tenses in such a away that Hina might expect him to lunge out of the purse and strike her. But then he simply crumples inwards, fingers balling into a loose fist.]

How could you forget something like me in your purse?

[He meant to make it sound scolding. It comes out tired.]

[It really is too bad that Hina isn't scared of you anymore, Ankh. You tried. Instead, she reaches out and sort of pets the back of his hand, frowning apologetically.]

I'm sorry, I am. You're usually so loud and I'm not used to you being like this, either. Can I get you something?

[And now she is petting him. This is what his cursed existence has come to, riding around in some girl's purse like a pampered pet. He cringes away slightly, settling down deeper.]

Cell medals. Get me cell medals. Enough that I can form a body.

[She did ask.]

[She rolls her eyes a little at his shrinking away, and then pauses, frowning.]

...Are you still able to sense the Yummies? If I could find some of the lesser ones, what did you and Eiji call them...? Garbage Yummies? I could probably beat them up and get you some medals.

[Hina. Hina no.]

[Oh? She's taking him seriously? ....wait, wait, of course she should take him seriously! He does harumph again, though. She's obviously badly misinformed on how Yummies work.]

Waste Yummies. And they'd be useless. They're made from breaking a single cell medal! You get nothing from them. You'd need to find a proper Yummy...

[Like one he made. Or one that the doll-carrying Greeed made... though he had yet to sense one of those anywhere.]

[Yes of course she was taking him seriously. He is the most serious of birds. She frowns a little at that, though.]

...Mm, well if you sense one, let me know. I'm not as powerful as Eiji, but... I have a duty to help keep this city safe, and if it gets you medals also, then that's a two-for-one deal.

Of course I'll let you know! Then you can go after it!

[And feeling somewhat mollified, he starts to settle back down into her purse. It muffles his voice, but he can still be heard easily enough.]

...You're not OOO. But you'll do.

[She huffs a little at him, jostling him just enough to be noticed.]

I'd better, since I just offered to help you out! [But she's smiling. She likes that she can actually help now.]

[He was going to just sink back into her purse and relax a little... but no. Jostling must be met with hostility. She needs to know who's really boss, here! He springs back up, almost floating entirely out of the purse.]

Hey!

[Though come to think of it...]

Eiji. He did the same, didn't he?

[She grins, scrunching up her nose and shaking her head at him a little, because he's so entirely not threatening right now and really he wouldn't be even if he had a body. She knows he's all show (at least, to her and Eiji and maybe Chiyoko).]

[But then she sobers slightly, her smile becoming just fond and not cheeky. She nods.]

Yes, he did. As OOO, he helped you gather medals.

[Her lack of cowering and fear should have annoyed him. Or at least annoyed him considerably more. Something about the way they interacted seemed right. Was he starting to remember more? Was that it?

He settles back down into her purse, just his fingers draped outside over the edge of it now.]

There were more to gather... weren't there? And more Greeed, too. I've only felt one wandering around.

[One strange and wrong Greeed.]

[She blinks, nodding.]

There were five of you, I'm pretty sure.

[She frowns. She doesn't think she wants to mention that Eiji was almost a sixth. She scowls a little more when he mentions one Greeed wandering.]

He doesn't count. He's just a pain in the butt jerk with a creepy doll.

Where are the others?

[They had to be around somewhere. Had to be. Didn't they? But if he had been so badly broken apart, then what had happened to the others?

He drummed his fingers along the side of Hina's purse anxiously.]

Tch! He's still a Greeed! He's still dangerous! He still has medals.

[Tucking some of her hair behind her ear, Hina frowned.]

I... Well, I'm not sure. Most of them were dead-- I thought. We thought Maki was, too.

[She drummed her fingers atop Ankh's for a moment.]

He's only sort-of a Greeed from what I understand. And his medals are dangerous and we don't need to think about them.

Hnn. [They were dead? One less thing for him to worry about. So why wasn't that sitting well with him? He had been 'dead' too, hadn't he? It's a lot to brood on. The finger-drumming stops.]

If they're dangerous, that's more reason to think about them! About him. About what he might be wanting to do.

[Though he had no concrete idea about what, exactly, Maki might be getting up to. It was more of a feeling that the guy was very, very bad news.]

[She reaches over and nudges his fingers back into the purse.]

How about you let me worry about that, since you're a little incapacitated?

[Ankh grumbles, but the nudging is successful. Back into the purse he goes. Not that it had anything to do with her! He was just tired now. That's all.]

You do that. I'm getting tired of this.

[She pats the bag gently.]

I'll figure it out. I'm sure it can't be too hard, if I can find a Yummy that isn't too overpowered... I could get you some medals. Maybe not enough for a body, not at once, but. Slow and steady wins the race.

[There is grumbling in response to the pat.]

It's not like this city's full of Yummies....

[Though maybe this meant that he'd have to suck it up and make a sub-par Yummy that Hina could possibly beat up. Even if it just spat out a few medals, It's more than he'd have had before...]

[No, no sir. You stop that. She will find a Yummy that is already causing problems, thank you. You do not need to cause those problems yourself.]

No, but. I'm sure we can figure something out.
