[ After Kotetsu's completed his usually role duties, he heads to the meeting spot with Sholmes. His tail waves behind him and Finley pads along with him in her tiger form.
The crutch he has now is fitted to him proper and has a dim starry material laced through it. Obviously he's had some help with it and it feels a lot better than the original shape of the crutch.
Even so, he looks a bit lost in thought as he enters the room. ]
Baraqiel did. Demanded I hand over my crutch and did this to it.
[ One hand is placed on Sholmes' shoulder so that he can properly hold the crutch up to show him. Finley circles around them both once in greeting to Sholmes. ]
I've been told that after today's choice, I only have two more left. The Watchers are done waiting and being pawns in this war. They plan to do something about it, but we have to keep looking for answers.
Technically three. Today's choice isn't being counted in that.
[ NO MY PHRASING IS BAD. ]
I have a feeling they will push themselves far, but we have to figure things out to help. We need to make sure to have all the information we can. I think it was a good idea that I talked to the other roles. There's a lot that I've been learning.
I wish you could be there for it. [ A light squeeze back. ] But it did work out. I hope that they keep my secret safe. Especially since someone seems to be convinced I have a role...

[He's already here, Irene in crow form at his shoulder - and he's instantly beelining over to Kotetsu, marveling at his crutch.]
Let me guess. The Watchers did this?

It's pretty interesting looking.

[He marvels over it a little, hand reaching over to brush lightly over Finley's head as she walks around them.]
Are you planning on doing anything for your leg, though?
no subject
I will. It wouldn't be fair of me to want you to get your hand taken care of and then refuse to do anything about my leg.
no subject
[HE'D BETTER GET HIS LEG BACK]
A hero needs to run around and save the day, yes?
no subject
Of course. And I can't have you carrying me everywhere.
no subject
[A wink, and a kiss to his cheek.]
As if you didn't like it.
no subject
[ He kisses his cheek back before he gets more serious. ]
That aside... I have something very important to tell you, though. Two things, actually.
no subject
[Now facing him. Serious talk. Let's go.]
What is it?
no subject
I asked about the knife. If I died, someone would be assigned to take it. I wouldn't have any influence on it. But someone would have that new duty.
no subject
Would you have any choice in your successor?
no subject
no subject
Well, I suppose that means I may not take it up, then. What else, Kotetsu?
no subject

no subject
What I'm going to tell you, cannot be told to anyone else. I'm allowed to tell you and the roles. They don't want this information spread very far.
[ Not that he thinks Sholmes will jeopardize anything he's doing, but he has to emphasize how important this is that he tells no one else. ]
no subject
[He reaches out to grasp the man's hands.]
I am ready to hear it. It shall not leave this room.

I...see. [But he frowns.] That sounds rather drastic...I do hope they won't push their limits.

...You're right on that. And...ah, I'm glad. [He smiles, squeezing the other's hands.] I suppose it all worked out, in the end.

And who would that be?
no subject
[ He actually sounds a little annoyed at that... ]
