Asakku

Her attention was back on him as he started to speak again, "I wish I was alone.. beats being with my excuse for family," she muttered, replaying memories in her head. She jumped, hearing him pound his fist into the table. Holy. Where is he?! She looked around frantically before realizing it was only the man in front of her. Oh. Never mind then.. I'm stupid to think he's here. She stifled a bitter laugh, looking up at him with amused eyes, "I like playing life's game. If this is how I am meant to play it. Then let me play the way I want to play," she huffed. When he pounded at the table again, she flinched for a heartbeat before snapping, "would you stop it?! Banging the stupid table isn't going to make me change my [beep] mind!"  She stood up from her chair, pressing her hands against the table.

"Well if you knew me," emphasizing herself, "then.. You. Would. Not. Care," she finished her sentence with a glare. Her face slowly fell as he continued. Then die.. oh how many times I've heard that before. She pressed her palm against her forehead. "I don't know why I haven't yet.." she mused, a small smile on her lips appeared. Looking up back at him, she grinned, "thanks for the suggestion!" she said happily, taking a seat back in her chair. "I tend to do that with a lot of people.." she chuckled.

@Hazado

"Likewise," she said sarcastically, "yeah.." she quirked up an eyebrow at his behavior. Boys. She rolled her eyes and nodded, "Mhm.." she paused, glancing over at Orias, "he's definitely something." Turning back to him, she shrugged, "what shop are you looking for? I'm not expert mapper but I know my way around here I guess." She stifled a snort as she watched him face plant into a sign. "Good job Goliath," she smirked, shaking her head. "I would be surprised if it was your first," she sighed, peeking at the sign. This is Zackiriah's shop.. well isn't this great. She blew a heavy puff of air and gave him a shrug. "Everyones a bother, it would be surprising if you weren't," she admitted, putting a hand on the door knob.

Her gaze turning steely, she looked back at him in disbelief, short.. She gave him a glare, "whatever, go bother someone else," she spat, pushing her way into the shop before he did. So annoying, she rolled he eyes, scanning for the Aincrad's version of Santa Claus.

@Dustin

"Yeah, thats what happens when you talk to me," she muttered. "I'm sure there isn't. But the reason why I'm still in the hospital is still a mystery. I would much rather be dead than waking up to live in the real world," she shrugged. Plus.. he's waiting for me. I don't want to go back. Not to that life anyways. She narrowed her eyes at him, but shrugged again, "I'll be even more weaker when I get out of here, IV's aren't going to keep me alive forever."

"Likewise," she sighed, pressing folding her arms together and face planting into her little bed of limbs. "They would care, take note of that. But I wouldn't let them, yeah?" she fumbled with her words, "wish I could say the same to you," she grinned, ignoring the look on his face. Death is something I've been so close to. Whats the harm in getting even closer?

@Hazado

She intertwined her fingers together and leaned her chin on her knuckles. "What a reader you are, I am quite surprised you guess my age," she rolled her eyes, "not many could due to my appearance anyways," she muttered shortly after, swiping her lips with her tongue. "Bingo," she said, looking back at him with cold eyes. "Well it is, being killed doesn't sound so bad either. So I have nothing to lose," she mimicked his snicker, putting on a sly smirk. 

"Type of player, huh..?" she echoed at the thought. "I don't like people, so probably the first option," she smiled innocently, "quick tip: they only get in the way." Glancing in another direction, she sighed, "so whats the point of getting to know people if half of them are probably gonna die anyways? Who knows, two months from now I could be dead. You could be dead. Everyone in Aincrad could be dead."

@Hazado

She huffed, "yeah, obviously." Rolling her eyes, she sighed and reached out her hands to shake his. "Asakku," she pulled it away soon after, "I am not your friend, and no, I'm fine on my own," she crossed her arms, her eyes flickering to her familiar, who was watching the conversation with a blank face. I know you are amused, don't lie to my face! Swiping his hand off her head, "don't touch me," she seethed, running a hand through her messy hair. "Yeah, well go find one then," she blew a sigh, pressing her hands against her hips. Raising an eyebrow, she scratched the back of her ear awkwardly. "I don't plan to drink things from strangers," she mumbled, watching him get flustered. 

She looked up at him with cold eyes. Up? Why do I feel short all of a sudden?! Oh no wonder, it's not like I can grow in here. Stupid, shortness.. I feel so weak. Muttering a few curses, she kicked her boots in the cobble path. "Well, it's been fun. I gotta go to a shop now, cya," never, she muttered in her head soon after, getting ready to leave the unsettling atmosphere. 

@Dustin

Opening up her inventory as she walked, she let out a heavy sigh. I have to talk to that old geezer again.. something about.. potions and whatnot. She rolled her eyes, realizing that she waster the shop, she broke off into a sprint, her familiar following close behind her. Lets just get this over with. She frowned, her brows furrowing. All I know is that his shop shoulder be right around this for- She turned a little too swiftly, not knowing someone was behind it. Running into a sturdy figure with a loud 'oof', she fell back with a steely gaze. "What the fu-," she turned her head upward with a steely gaze. "Hey, whats your problem?!" she raised her arms as she ranted. 

Raising a brow, she crossed her arms with an unreadable face. Stupid.. ugh.. I can't believe this is happening. But.. I am having this deja vu feeling again, she sighed, looking up at the much, taller figure than her. "The frick is wrong with you?" she scoffed, rolling her eyes.

@Dustin

Nodding towards him, she lurched forward, spear in one hand and the other waving freely beside her. With Orias by her side, she lunges her spear straight into the nepents.. head-thing. Oh sweet, I didn’t miss this time! She smirked cheekily, pressing the spear harder into it. Once it let out a deafening screech, exploding into a million blue shards, she sighed in relief. “I thought that one would never die..” she muttered, turning back to @Tyonis. “Can you finish that last one?” She called, motion over to the remaining Nepent.

As she made back to where he was standing she twirled her spear around. Whoo, Spears are fun to use.. way better than swords.. hehe. I’m pretty sure a spear could heat a sword in a real battle.. it has more range than a sword I guess.

Pressing her lips together in a thin line, she blew a sigh and gave him a nod as he finished. Please work this time, I swear.. she blinked away the though, motioning for Orias to follow, “c’mon on buddy..” she muttered, leaping forward. Drawing her spear back, she blew a puff of air before lurching it forward into the ‘chest’ of a Nepent.

”Ouch, that’s gotta hurt..” she gave a crooked grin before jumping back. Oh darn.. I didn’t finish it all the wa- cutting herself off, she watched Orias jump out of a shadow and on to the creature. Well, that was unexpected. She huffed, watching him claw at it. After a few more seconds, the thing finally disappears into a cloud of blue shards. “Way to steal the glory from me,” she scoffed, rolling her eyes at the dumbfounded familair.

Turning to @Tyonis, she gave a quick shrug, mouthing, ‘go for it’.

Pressing her fingers against the her familiars skull, she sighed. What was I doing here again.. oh, that quest. Yup, I remember now, that stupid quest with the.. she paused, a chill dwindling up her back. bug.. a really big bug apparently. She sighed, shaking her head. It's supposed to give me a lot of experience but.. ugh, bugs. She shuddered at the thought of dealing with a giant, stinging, bee. As if one small one isn't enough, there had to be giant one. Ew, ew, ew. She shook her head and looked up. Spotting a familiar style and color of hair, she narrowed her eyes. Oh, fudge nuggets. Why is everyone around here people I know? She looked left and right. It’s that Tyonis.. kid. Or whatever, I guess I wasn’t clear when I told him don’t look for me. She sighed, walking up behind him.

Huffing, she gripped the whatever-animal-it-is skull and whacked him on the back of his head with it. "You missed me that much, huh?" she frowned, pulling her arm back. 

@Tyonis

"Nice to meet you.. Tyonis," she mumbled, raising a brow. Odd name.. but then again. My name is based after a creature that inflicts disease. She shrugged, brushing off the thought. I feel like I'm a bit over-leveled for this quest. Whatever, a quest is a quest. She rolled her eyes and snapped her fingers in front of Orias' face. "Yo, you better ready when this Nepent thing attacks, got it?" she turned to her familiar with a steely gaze. Without waiting for him to answer, she huffed. Without getting a reply, she turned to Tyonis.

She accepted the party invite and gave a crooked smirk, "as if. You wouldn't be able to touch me anyways," she sighed, running a hand through her hair impatiently. As she watched the vine-y monsters spawn she gave out a chuckle, bending over to pull the skull off of Orias' head, revealing pearly white eyes and a sharp and toothy grin. "Whoo, I haven't impaled something in a while. Won't this be great?" she gave him a thumbs up, "yeah, yeah."

Dashing forward, she readied her spear, aiming right for their stupid green heads. Agh, why do I have a bad feeling about this? She shook off the feeling and drew back her spear. A heartbeat passed by as she attempted to attack. Missing by a hair, she growled and jumped away. "God [beep]! Stupid Nepents!" she hissed under her breath and sighed, first move and I missed. This sucks balls. 

@Tyonis

I guess I’ll have to go find that Kyle guy again.. she mumbled, turning a corner. I think his shop was right here.. I remember it when I gave him that package from Zackiriah.. she shrugged, shaking her head. Whatever. I’m almost there anyways. Turning one final corner, she found herself at the blacksmiths shop. Here it is.. same old.. ragged place I guess. Mumbling, she pushed her way through the shop doors, her familair padding alongside her. 

“Kyle?” She called, looking around the shop, “I’m here to take the quest!” She rolled her eyes, venturing deeper into the shop. There he is.. “Hey Kyle,” she muttered, walking up to him with a frown. 

He turned around and gave a small smile, “oh hey Asakku! What is it that brings you doing here?” Her shoulders dropped and she stifled a long sigh, this is gonna be one hell of a day.

@Dustin

She scoffed, shaking her head. "Boy, I think you'd never notice." She narrowed her eyes at him and pressed her palm on her cheek. "Yay, free food," she sighed. I'm not even hungry.. but food is food. Even if it is virtual. She looked up at him with unreadable eyes, "depressed? Me?" she let out a bitter laugh, "yeah.. no, buddy. I'm anything but depressed. I may be crazy out of my mind. But I am no way depressed. If you think I'm depressed because I'm in this crappy game, you're wrong," she passed, "I'm actually quite glad I'm stuck in this game. It's quite the.. experience," she chuckled, glancing at the windows. 

Rolling her eyes one last time, she set her gaze on the menu. Ugh.. I think I lost my appetite, not like I had one to begin with. She sighed, picking a random thing before she set the menu down and cracked her fingers. Ugh, whens the last time I actually stretched. I feel so.. eugh.

@Hazado

She shrugged, "well, what do ya know?" she mumbled, cocking her head towards the sky. Tapping her fingers impatiently against the bench, she let out a sigh. Why can't I just get a full day without bumping into someone? Even so, why can't I bump into someone who just doesn't like talking? Ugh. Putting on a crooked smile, she fidgeted with her fingers, "are you sure? She must be pretty important to you if you're going around asking random people about her," she paused, "especially if you're on Floor 22 looking for her... but she doesn't seem like a sister either. So are you denying it or am going crazier than I think I am?" she chuckled.

Nodding, "yes actually," she said in-a-matter-of-fact tone. "I'm here for a quest, I was just thinking before I went to the location." Mumbling a few random curses after, she huffed and crossed her arms. Blah, this quest probably isn't even worth it. I'm only getting a stupid picture, nothing worth my while anyways.. but, I guess I'm not doing anything today either. Ugh, what am I gonna do?

@Grimm

“Ack!” She jumped, craning her head to look at the player, “oh.. hey,” she mumbled, her hand gripping her spear harder. “Yeah, I guess,” she shrugged, muttering a few curses following, “Spear Art Online.” She sighed and looked up at him again, “Asakku,” she took his hand numbly and shook it before resting it at her side again. “Yeah, I am.. and that’d be.. wonderful,” she rolled her eyes at her self, Pinball 2.0, possibly that is. He doesn’t seem as stupid and awkward as Pinball at least. 

Realizing that her familiar was about to ‘leave’ again, she poked him harshly on the top of his skull-y head, “nuh-uh. They’re about to spawn. You’re staying here,” she muttered, sending him glares. He responded with a blank stare and a snort. I see how it is! Why you little ungrateful br- she paused, glancing at Tyonis before sighing. Whatever, sending Orias another glare, she stood up straighter and sighed. “Yeah, they’re about to spawn soon, get ready I guess.”

@Tyonis

She looked up at him and frowned, “you don’t look so hot yourself either,” she retorted, pressing her head down and releasing another heated sigh. Glancing through her arms, she found herself staring at Orias’ skull, which was sitting on the wooden floor. Ugh, he can pick it up for himself. 

Almost not getting what the player had just said she looked up at him with a crooked face. “The steam is gone now, thanks,” she mumbled, rolling her eyes, “Asakku.” Fidgeting with her fingers, she tapped her feet on the floor impatiently. I can’t beleive he left me here, alone, again! The nerve, stupid 1’s and 0’s. You’d probabaly be still in the stupid forest, getting your arse whooped by some party. She snorted, biting softly on her tongue. You’d think familiars would actually listen to their owners. “Stupid shadow, I thought having a familair that could prance into a flippin’ shadow would be cool,” she muttered under her breath.

@Hazado

Holding a spear in one hand and scrolling through her inventory with the other, the ebony haired player sighed, her shoulders sagging. This quest.. I’m not sure if I’m strong enough to do it yet. Ugh, I don’t want to fake my way into another party, especially after what happened with that Pinball dude. Whatever, I’m sure I can take it. You can get anything if you don’t risk anything I guess.  She closed her menu and took a sideways glance at her familiar, who was trotting along with her. 

This might be the first time I fight with Orias, let’s see what he can do then I guess. She shrugged, puffing up her cheeks as she headed stared at the forest. So.. recap. I have to fight these.. Nepent things. I have to fight two.. before I can go up against the larger one. Well isn’t this just dandy?

@Tyonis

Asakku looked up at the figure with narrowed eyes, “sure,” she mumbled, folding her arms across the table with a blank face. At the sight of another player, Orias gave a snort and walked off into the tables shadow. Well, I love you too Orias, I’m sure you can pick up your own skull next time. Thanks. She rolled her eyes with sarcasm and pressed her forehead against her arms. What has my life come to.? She sighed, fiddling with a stray hair in her face. 

Why am I here again? I don’t think I was hungry. If I was.. I lost my appetite. She snorted, well, that isn’t the first. Taking in a mouth of air, she blew a huff of hot air. I should be doing something.. I’m too lazy to go hunting though. Gathering is a waste, I don’t plan on opening a shop anytime soon anyways.

@Hazado

A small bored and irritated sigh gave way as Asakku slouched further into her chair. This sucks, it’s so borrrrrrinnngg. Orias is even out and he isn’t even doing anything. She took a small glance at her familiar, was was sitting on the ground at least a few feet away from her. You suck Orias, she puffed, looking in another direction. The stupid shop I wanted to go to is closed, who closes their shop in the middle of the afternoon?! Ugh. Crossing her arms, she muttered under her breath, “should’ve gotten a familair that actually does something,” taking a small quick look at Orias one more time, she bit her lip in boredom. I feel like I’m going crazy, like.. four times more than when this stupid game started. She scratched her head and sighed, I feel like this is the millionth time I’ve said it, but this game is really getting to me..

@Hazado

She slumped farther into her seat, "you're more normal than most of the people I've met, except your job. You're the first," she chuckled, giving a small yawn. Jesus, how much did I even sleep yesterday, this sucks balls. She rubbed her cheek and looked up at him with a tilted smile. "Another first," she sighed, rubbing the back of her neck. Tapping her hell on the wooden floor, she took another small glance at the tables shadow, I'm really starting to think he wandered off somewhere without telling me, "stupid wolf," she mumbled, crossing her arms with an annoyed scoff.

Rubbish her chin, she gave a reluctant nod, "sure, I haven't gone hunting in a while. Much less actually attack something," she muttered the last sentence bitterly, but gave a shrug. "but yeah, I'd be willing to go anytime, it's not like I have anything else to do." Come to think of it.. I only did that quest with Mr. No Morals and somethin' else, ugh I forgot. 

@Rav

"Yes, the twenty-second floor, what did you expect the ninety-ninth floor?" she rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. "Well, thats the first," she sighed, giving in and extending her hand to grasp his and shake it. "Asakku, and I wouldn't want it anyways," she pulled her hand back and put each of her palms on her hips and glared at him with irritation. Frowning, she shook her head. "Nope, never heard or seen of her," she said bluntly, leaning back in her seat. Orias had just appeared out of her shadow once again and was just sitting on the dirt next to her, watching the conversation with a blank face. Oh, I know what you're thinking, she shot a scowl at her familiar, who turned his head away with a snort. Oh ha-ha. Yeah, do what you little stalker. She huffed in annoyance and turned her head back to Grimm. "So you have no idea where your friend with benefits is?"

@Grimm

She chuckled, waving her hand, "Pftt. Me? Jealous? Yeah, no way buddy. The day I become jealous is the day hell freezes over," she shook her head, "yeah, I tend to catch a lot of people off guard. Because.." she leaned in closer and whispered with one hand covering her left part of her face, "I'm not very social, comes with the package," she slid back into her seat and put her hands behind her head and sighed. "A friend? Wow, am I honored," she took another quick glance at the dark shadow under the table, for [beep] sakes Orias. I know you're hearing every inch of this conversation. She mumbled a few incoherent curses and returned her orbs to Rav, "I could say the same thing to be honest, who knew the first person I would get along with would be a person who kills for a living?" she rolled her eyes and gave a brief scoff, "but to be honest, I didn't think I would get along with anyone generally," she muttered, enjoying the loud rain pouring on the roof.

@Rav

Asakku kept her mouth shut while he was talking, and when he was, she didn't even know where to begin. "it's not the law thats putting me in house arrest," she scoffed, glancing in another direction, "no law can hold back this girl," giving in to a bitter chuckle, she looked back at him. "Wish I could say the same, but join the club, looks like we both have a crappy family," she mumbled, leaning back into her chair and fidgeted with her nails. "I'm not going to lie, it's both. I'm never hungry anyways so the other part doesn't concern me as much as it sounds like it should." Pulling her arms back, she slouched further into her seat. "I don't even know anymore," she sighed, looking up at the ceiling.

Shaking her head once again, "no. The hunger in this game is artificial anyways, it's not going to make me any more full in real life anyways," she frowned, but gave a simple shrug, "whatever you say, don't be too disappointed though."

@Rav

She tilted her head, "I bet she does, you basically saved her," she shrugged, toying with the tips of her hair. Taking her sentence into thought, she gave a small frown. I've never been in debt.. I mean, money wise, yes.. But being in debt to someone that doesn't concern money is new to me. She looked up at him and her mouth tilted downward, "yeah but you would be surprised how weak I am in real life, I'm underweight, malnourished and barely have any muscle, It's weird lifting up things I know I can't lift up in real life here," she sighed, but gave him a knowing glance, "but that is surprising. Eleven years old is pretty young to go off and kill people," pressing her chin on her knuckles, she gave a small groan, "agh, I would never wake up this early in real life either, this sucks balls."

She frowned at the thought of actually getting out of SAO, "I wouldn't be so sure on that, I'll probably be on house arrest for months," she shook her head and huffed, "so don't go looking for me, I would've honestly been honored to server milord," she joked for a second, "but sadly, my life isn't that easy."

@Rav

She listened intently, giving a small course smile as he did so, "human trafficking, huh.. you don't see that much where I live," she examined her nails before returning her gave back to him, "so did you train her to be your bodyguard? I suppose she wouldn't be very fit if she just came out of slave labor," she pondered, clasping her hands together and taking the situation into consideration. "But she seems very loyal, thats for sure," she commented, checking her shadow once again, not even a stir, wow. Aren't you just the greatest familiar? She sighed inwardly before resuming back to listening. "Oh, you killed for living? Interesting.." she held a curious smirk on her face, "what a job.. I would sign up right away.." she paused for a second, 
"but I was never really that fit in the real world," she pointed to her skinny arms. "But hey, you never know." She shrugged and bit her lip, "death isn't a surprise to me just so you know. It's a thing everyone goes through.. but others go through it earlier than expect is the way I would put it." 

@Rav

She glanced at her shadow, mentally scowling at her familair, you see what you have make me go through Orias? Ugh. Focusing back on Räv, she gave a shrug, “dying forever doesn’t seem that bad. I personally would rather be dying in here than in real life,” she commented, fidgeting with the gems of her scarf as she did so. She looked up at him with a neutral face, “not much, enough to know what’s going at least,” she shrugged again, this time tapping her heels against the ground. 

She took his sentences into thought before opening her mouth, “Yeah, at least you had someone to eat with,” she chuckled bitterly, rolling her eyes at the reply she just gave. “I suppose so..” she paused for a heartbeat, “bodyguard, huh? Aren’t you Mr. Popular?” She smirked, “so what did you do for a living? You look young so I don’t expect a CEO of a huge enterprise.”

@Rav
