19 | Training

Who: Hajime and Philip.
Where: A quiet park somewhere.
When: The afternoon of February 1.
What: Hajime's concerned about this kid who keeps leaking apocalypse energy and can't control the shadow-things he spawns. He's going to try to help.
Warnings: Shadow monsters. Oooh, scary.


Hajime didn't object to training sessions for the other members of the network. Really, it was a good idea to get one's abilities under control. No, what made this instance a little weird was that Philip was so young, and that he was pretty much leaking some sort of crazy energy. It made Hajime's bugmonster instincts uncomfortable, and he had to make sure to keep an eye on himself. He didn't need to run around attacking kids because his monster instincts objected to the sense of sameness there.

So he'd offered to try to help Philip get things under control. It made sense; if Philip's shadow-things couldn't be controlled, then Hajime could defeat them.

He gave the kid a nod. He hadn't transformed into his bug-self yet, and he was hoping he wouldn't need to. "You ready to try making one of those blob-things?"

Phillip was glad to have someone to train with too. He felt a little bad asking Toushirou, since his energy gave him a headache, and Luke was dealing with his own problems right now. He didn't really want to ask Grandpa to deal with this either, and Henry didn't like killing things. So Hajime offering was really nice.

"Yeah, I'm ready!" the boy says, nodding. It wasn't hard to summon them, after all. He just didn't know what to do with them after.

Phillip nods in understanding, for the moment just summoning one little creature. It's clearly quite freaked out just on arrival, instinct having it dart away from Phillip but once it sense the giant bug monster it doesn't want to go towards that either.

Phillip still has no idea why it does that. "Um, sit!" He focuses really, really hard on the blob, trying to get it to listen.

"Usually they attack things and just run away from me... I don't know why it's doing that." Hajime might have a better idea, however, since when the thing runs away it appears to actually have anime like sweat drops coming off of it. "Sit!" No, it's still not listening to him at all.

That counts enough as an attack to engage the creature, so it will settle down and attack back. The almost comical sweat beads remain as it feebly attempts to slash at Hajime. It's clearly a fairly weak creature. Anyone with the ability to defend themselves would probably be ok against the one.

Phillip thinks for a moment, before shaking his head. "Not really." Heck, he barely registers that the blob is a thing, next to Hajime's energy and power. "I don't think it's listening."

"I guess so..." Phillip's a little disappointed that it's not working, but it's probably not going to do them any good right now. He does wondering why it runs away like that.
darkhourdear: (Pharos [I don't remember])

[personal profile] darkhourdear 2014-02-08 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
It's gone almost immediately, just dissipating. It was very weak indeed. "D'you think I should try again?" Phillip asks, sounding a little doubtful. He's not sure if it'll do anything.
darkhourdear: (Pharos [Oh dear])

[personal profile] darkhourdear 2014-02-09 02:39 pm (UTC)(link)
"Um, well then just more of them show up! But maybe they'll do something different?" Phillip will try it! He summons up three little blobs this time, all three of which try to get away from him and Hajime. They don't appear to be working together at all, though.
darkhourdear: (Pharos [Oh dear])

[personal profile] darkhourdear 2014-02-09 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
They don't attack each other, at least, but when they finally start ganging up on Hajime they are particularly coordinated in their attacks.
darkhourdear: (Pharos [Oh dear])

[personal profile] darkhourdear 2014-02-10 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
"Um... I am now!" The answer was 'no,' then. But there's really no difference in their behavior after he starts.
darkhourdear: (Pharos [I don't remember])

[personal profile] darkhourdear 2014-02-10 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, I guess so." This wasn't turning out like he hoped at all.
darkhourdear: (Pharos [The end is coming])

[personal profile] darkhourdear 2014-02-10 02:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Still nothing. They seem to be mostly focusing on individual survival, even though they both seem to know it won't happen. Phillip is watching, still looking a little sad. "Does this mean I can't control them?" he asks.
darkhourdear: (Pharos [I don't remember])

[personal profile] darkhourdear 2014-02-11 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
"Maybe. I hope so." They're not very useful if he can't get them to do what he wants.
darkhourdear: (Pharos [I don't remember])

[personal profile] darkhourdear 2014-02-12 02:01 pm (UTC)(link)
"They've attacked other people with them starting it, though..." Phillip doesn't know what to make of this, thinking. "...Maybe they were scared of you. They seem to always run away from me."
darkhourdear: (Pharos [I don't remember])

[personal profile] darkhourdear 2014-02-13 01:29 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well, I mostly summoned them when I was in trouble." Phillip shrugs. "So usually something's been attacking me or my friends."
darkhourdear: (Pharos [Wasn't expecting that])

[personal profile] darkhourdear 2014-02-14 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
Wow... that was cool. Enough to distract Phillip for a minute. "Maybe. I don't know how to do that while making sure they won't hurt anyone."
darkhourdear: (Pharos [I don't remember])

[personal profile] darkhourdear 2014-02-15 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah..." This is hard. "I'll think about it, I guess." It can't be a non-network person, though, and pretty much everyone he knows from the network has powers.
darkhourdear: (Pharos [Wasn't expecting that])

[personal profile] darkhourdear 2014-02-15 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Phillip probably wouldn't care. "D'you think he'd be ok with helping?"
darkhourdear: (Pharos [Wasn't expecting that])

[personal profile] darkhourdear 2014-02-17 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
"Ok. Um. I don't know him, so could you ask maybe?" You're not supposed to ask for favors from strangers, right?
