You've reached Elliot Nightray. If you couldn't tell, you're unable to get a hold of me for right now so leave a message and I'll get back to you.

[Hearing this, he's clutching the door even tighter. He's really trying not to hurt you and to think this was for his own good. Yeah.. like that thought process will last for long.

He's avoiding eye contact now before replying.] Where?

action.

[retraced]

[He relaxes a little at that, taking a step closer to Elliot and gesturing down the hall towards one of the sitting rooms.]

The parlor. I'll show you everything that I found out.

action.

[ferventknight.livejournal.com]

Fine. Hurry up.

[He's walking right passed him, no words at all straight to the parlor.]

[ferventknight.livejournal.com]

Like I said, I have no idea what the hell you're talking about.

action.

[retraced]

[Rather than lead, he's happy to simply follow his brother into the room. This leaves less chance of him punching him in the back of the head, too...]

Did you want me to make some tea, or...?

action.

[ferventknight.livejournal.com]

No.

[His answers remained short as he walked into the room and quietly taking a seat. He didn't even want eye contact. Is this better than being beaten up?]

Just tell me what you found out.

action.

[retraced]

[A little bit better, yes. He sits across from him and pulls his notepad from the inside pocket of his jacket.]

His name is Billy Kaplan. He lives with his grandfather - a dangerous man, I'm told. If we need to speak to him, there's a good chance that it will get back to that man as well.

How interesting that you aren't aware~ _{hmmmmm~ heeeeheheee~}

Tell me, have you seen the news as of late~?

action.

[He gave a thought, placing his elbow on the arm of the piece of furniture.]

We might have to speak with him-- or else we wouldn't know what exactly happened if he can remember. Unless someone saw?

action.

[retraced]

According to police, there were no witnesses.

I can arrange a time to speak to him...hopefully alone.

[ferventknight.livejournal.com]

Are you referring to the recent murder?

action.

[ferventknight.livejournal.com]

By arrange, do you mean with you or the both of us this time?

action.

[retraced]

[He shuts his eyes and lets out a breath.]

Elliot...you can't trust people here. If this really is the headhunter, and someone had seen you in that place asking questions...

action.

[ferventknight.livejournal.com]

[His eyes would widen at that statement; he'd punch you if he could right now.]

And what about you?! The same applies!

action.

[retraced]

[He'd take the punch, happily.]

If it's me...it's fine.

action.

[ferventknight.livejournal.com]

[He's about to do it, bro.]

What the hell gives you that idea?!

action.

[retraced]

I have a Chain. If I'm faced against another one, I'll be more likely to survive.

action.

[ferventknight.livejournal.com]

I don't care if you have a Chain or not! If you're still being a fucking idiot about this, you'll end up dying!

And if you're going to be like this, I shouldn't give a damn!

action.

[retraced]

[He simply looks down at the ground at that. Really, Elliot shouldn't give a damn. This burden should only be his own...]

I won't get hurt.

action.

[ferventknight.livejournal.com]

Says you!

You can't control everything Gilbert! [He's standing up out of his chair now, practically toppling it over before storming towards the door.] And you sure as hell can't control what I do!

action.

[retraced]

[That poor chair. What did it ever do to you.

He stands too, reaching out to try and grab his brother before he can leave the room.]

Hold on! Don't do something stupid just because you're angry!

action.

[ferventknight.livejournal.com]

[It got in his way. And you'll see worse if you don't let go of him.]

And why the hell should I listen to you?!

action.

[retraced]

Listen to me - even if this isn't the headhunter, things here are still dangerous! People here fight with things far worse than swords!

[Yeah, he's calling your sword inferior. What.]

action.

[ferventknight.livejournal.com]

[Wow, excuse you brother. He's making a move to shove you the fuck away from him.]

Don't make it sound like I can't handle anything on my own!

action.

[retraced]

When did I say that?!

[Ignoring the fact that that's totally what he just said. Also, taking a step back when shoved.]
