Ike

Ike grinned, "Sure thing!" He held back his laughs of the number that someone had told her was special, Best not to let her know what it actually means. He turned away from Fae. His eyes scanning the terrain around him trying to discover where he would hide. His eyes spotting the forest he decided to trek that way, however before he could even take a step in that direction, a shout came out of nowhere.

Ike felt his eyes widen as a shield crashes into his body. He stumbled backwards, falling into the pool of water behind him. His head hitting a rock on the way down his vision going black as he sunk to the bottom of the cursed liquid. Not long after he got pushed down a sword stabbed through his heart. He watched as his health bar sunk past the red zone. His eyes widening as his vision got filled by red hazy images.

He.. He was dead? Ike reached his arm upwards, trying to reach the light that graced the top of the waters... But to no avail.. Huh.. So this is the end... Goodbye.. Kirbs.. As soon as his thought finished, his body burst into pixels, they made their way to the top of the water, gracing into the sky and being released. His body... His soul had become one with Aincrad.

Ike watched from the water as a young girl ran towards him.. A wide grin laced her face. Ike couldn't help but smile back. "Why hello there.. Ah, your name is Fae? My name is Ike. It's a pleasure to meet your acquaintance, queen of the fairies." The figure of the small child was enough to get Ike up and out of the water. He left his body, shirtless, "What do you want to do, Mistress Fae?" He stretched a bit, his neck cracking as he stepped out of the water. His muscular abdomen being right there in the open. Ike grinned, "How old are you if you don't mind my asking?" He glanced back up at the waterfall. It truly was beautiful here that much he was certain of. The light mist that bounced at the bottom of the waterfall landed all over his bare skin. He held out his arms, happy to feel the cold spray. It was a mediocre day in Aincrad. It wasn't too hot, but it was hot enough to relish in the cold springs of the waterfall.

Ike let out a long sigh. After going through and meeting Kirbs.. After fighting off the Avalanche with Kityuisa.. He was pooped out. Ike was down for some relaxation. Ike had heard of the beautiful waterfall on floor six, so that was where he was headed. There was supposedly a quest, but Ike wasn't one for quests. In fact he hated them. Ike had no motivation to do them either. So what was Ike doing at the waterfall? You got it! He was just going to sit and let the cool mist spray over him, maybe even jump in for a bit and what not. Ike had made his way to the waterfall, and stood at the edge. This was where he stripped down to just his pants and jumped in the water! The coolness washing over him, as he relaxed. Ike had no clue what was going on around him as he closed his eyes, his head resting on the ledge of a nearby rock. How peaceful is a day like this...

Ike rolled his eyes, "Okay-Okay." He put up his hands in defeat, a sparkle appearing in his eyes, "Sure thing! I'm not a huge fan of quests, but if you feel up for it, we could do a quest tomorrow?" His eyes never left Kirbs' face. The two shining emeralds being shown in her hands. 

Ike himself, reached down to seek out some more materials, "If you're tired we should probably turn in for the night.." As Ike was speaking his hands fell upon a material. It was shiny, but Ike didn't know the name of it. As soon as he held onto it, it broke into two. Two materials now in his hands. He shrugged and placed them in his inventory. "How much did we gather?" Ike was looking forward to how much loot the trio would pull out together. Splitting it in the middle would be the best bet. "I don't need that many materials... So you don't have to give me as much as you two take."

Ike grinned as he chuckled, watching as Kirbs face planted her face into the ground, "You're laugh is adorable and it makes you all that more cute." Ike was definitely interested, "We should hang out sometime again soon." He stood to his feet as Kityuisa approached the two. 

"Yeah, i'm cool with that." He grinned, taking the stuff from Kityuisa that she had offered to him. Ike cracked his neck, "Well then beautiful. You wanna hear another joke?" He winked once more, "I don't mind telling more. You're charming when you laugh and I like seeing your smile." 

Ike bent down to grab a shining pebble but watched with a frown as it burst into pixels, "Well I guess that didn't work out the way I planned it." Ike chuckled at his own dumb luck, "Figured that pebble didn't like me that much. Maybe you should've grabbed it." Ike laughed, "The way I see it. I'm an acquired taste."

Ike watched with twinkling eyes as Kirbs continued to fall down in laughter. He was ready to scoop her up if she fell too hard, but watched as she sunk down to her knees. Ike laughed harder, "Hey was lost at C!!!!!!" Ike threw his hands up for emphasis and held the expression of a dumbfounded sailor. Ike dropped down to his knees to be down on the ground with Kirbs, and sat on his bottom. "I made you laugh three times." He winked again, "Your laugh is very charming. I like it." He got all serious in that instance. 

Ike wasn't finding very many materials. He wasn't the luckiest of the bunch, but his character development was well under way. Ike already found Kirbs very charming, and everything he did with her only made it more evident to him. She was certainly unique and lovely. Ike also had a thing for red heads as I stated much earlier in this roleplay. But Ike was crushing~

Kirbs' laugh was just too precious to pass up. Ike laughed with her. A hand being placed over his stomach as it began to hurt. "Oh trust me! I know." Ike could help but laugh at himself now, he knew his jokes were super corny and cheesy. But that's the kind of stuff that made it easy for people to laugh at. Whether it be the joke, or whether they be laughing at him. 

Ike grinned, "They slug it out!" Ike doubled back over in laughter again, snorting at the joke he had just told. His smile wide as his jaw began to ache. He was having a lot of fun with Kirbs and he didn't want to stop. Why can't every day be like this? Ike managed to get a hold of himself, but one look at Kirbs and he doubled back over in laughter.

Finally getting a hold of himself, he spoke once more. "Now then! Why couldn't the sailor learn the alphabet?" Ike had loved this one ever since he was about the age of three.

Ike grinned as he held up the flower in his hands, "Tu-lips!" The flower in his hand was definitely tulip and Ike chuckled at his own joke. He found it hilarious! Ike put the flower back in his inventory. Ike bent down and picked up two more flowers before settling them in his inventory as well. He looked back at Kirbs, checking to see if she laughed. Whether or not she laughed, Ike would still tell another joke. He blinked gently and glanced to see how many materials he had picked up already. He had a small number, but he was confident he could get more before the night was over.

Ike let out a chuckle at Kirbs' tomato- look alike face. He grinned, "Good thing I like jokes then, eh?" He nudged Kirbs with his elbow, "How about this. I tell one joke and i'll keep telling them until you laugh three times." Ike held up three fingers to put emphasis on his offer. "Hmmm, let's see.. What's a good one... Oh wait! I got one!" Ike took out one of the flowers from his inventory and looked down at it, "How many lips does a flower have?" He grinned. This joke is wayyy too corny.. Ike was ready to make himself look like a total goofball.

But, he loved Kirbs' laugh. It made him really happy to hear it. It was charming, in it's own way. He wanted to make her laugh as much as possible. Happiness needed to be spread in a dooming world such as Aincrad. After all, they were all stuck here, and everyone was losing people at the drop of a hat.

Ike listened to Kirbs' replies, chuckling himself at the whole hand shoes, "They have those weird gloves shoes... You know, the ones with the toes. Kind of like a glove for your foot instead of your hand..." Ike drew his hand up to his chin, as she answered with a rather serious and what Ike took to be a passionate, yet painful reply. Time... Something we all want more of.

Ike nodded, "I can get on the same level as that... Time... It's ironic really. You don't realize what you miss until it's too late.." Ike's smile was replaced with a frown as his eyebrows furrowed. Shaking his expression away, the same goofy grin reappeared on his face. "Say Kirbs, make me laugh. What's the funniest joke you've got committed to memory? In return i'll tell you a joke of my own." Ike winked at Kirbs as he finished asking his question.

Ike nodded his head, "Noted." He grinned wider as Kirbs grew as red as a tomato, "Well then Kirbs, i'm not entirely sure what month it is... But, either way let's celebrate your birthday sometime soon. After all, I missed two of them already. I have to make it up to you." Ike would then proceed to keep Kirbs' birthday in his own memory. He would never forget it. "I like your way of thinking. Fingers for toes is obviously the best option you have. Besides, imagine having twenty fingers instead of ten! You could grab things with your feet!" Ike lightly squeezed Kirbs' hand out of excitement, "Ahh sorry." He let go of her hand as he pondered on the next set of questions he wanted to ask her. 

"Tell me. If you could have an unlimited supply of anything what would it be?" Ike glanced around for yet another flower. He found nothing in sight and once again, he returned his attention back to Kirbs. He shifted his feet, "Sorry for my weird questions.. I just find them more fun than your typical every day questions."

Ike raised his eyebrows at her comment about acting the same around a murderer, "Is she a murderer?" He pointed his thumb towards the area that Kityuisa would be found, roaming around looking for materials. 

When Kirbs said that she wasn't very interesting, Ike began to disagree. He reached out and gently held onto one of Kirbs' hands, "I beg to differ. You seem rather interesting to me." He gazed into her eyes, as she told him how old she was now, "So you were fifteen during the launch? I was sixteen. I believe I should be eighteen now... When is your birthday?" Ike decided he might as well ask her a few questions. The smirk that lined Ike's face appearing as he spoke back up. "Let's start with an easy one. Would you rather have toes for fingers or fingers for toes?" Ike treated this as any other incident. If someone didn't feel easy enough to talk with him, he'd fix it by mixing in some humor. Yet this humor also had a twist, this way he could be funny and also get to know how Kirbs' thought and reacted. He would get to know her not by knowing her favorite color but by how she responded to his weird and unique questions.

Ike watched as Kirbs began to stutter and chuckled as she kept talking until she cut herself off. "Yeah, I'm that streamer.." Ike ran his left hand through his pure colored hair, "But, don't change the way you act around me, now that you know." He gave Kirbs a wink, "After all, i'm just a player like you, cutie." Ike attached a sweet term to his words before Kirbs spoke about the games she played, "No worries with Nintendo. If you've seen my streams, you know that's pretty much all I play." Ike chuckled. 

"Tell me more about yourself, I must admit you've peeked my interests." Ike looked around to see if he could find anything else but upon not seeing anything of value within grabbing distance, he returned his gaze once again towards the red head. "What else about you is interesting?" I mean, everything about her really is... Ike didn't speak the last part before he tagged along another line, "How old are you, Miss Kirbs?"

Ike let Kirbs take the rose that was in his fingers. Ike couldn't help but feel even more enticed by the red-haired girl as she revealed her name, Kirbs, like the video game character... "Well, Kirbs like the video game character, My name is Ike, like the video game character." Ike chuckled his pearly white teeth showing before he spoke once again, "Seems we have similar interests." Ike shuffled his feet. If she played the same kind of games that Ike loved to play, maybe she had watched people play the same games that she enjoyed. 

Ike shuffled lightly, "Which games do you play?" Ike asked her, his minty gaze still watching Kirbs' face. Noticing the small flushing that had popped up on her face. Damn, she's too cute. Ike didn't know why he had been so attracted to this girl, but her name pretty much said it all. Maybe he could tell that she had similar interests?

Ike couldn't help but grin as he watched one of the two girls stifling laughter. He had heard the entirety of their conversation, so he decided to bring it upon himself to join "If you ladies would have me, I wouldn't mind joining." As if too boost what he spoke of, Ike bent down himself and retrieved a flower. Ike felt proud of himself, his first attempt to gather, to prove his worth had been a success... When he stood back up his eyes caught sight of a beautiful red rose, very much like the color of Kirbs' hair and eyes. Ike walked over to it, and plucked it from it's hold in the soil.

He dusted off the ground and walked over to the enticing red-head. "For you." He held the red rose out towards Kirbs and gave a small bow, "What is your name?" Ike felt his lopsided grin sticking to his lips like glue.

Ike chuckled as Kityuisa reacted the way that she did, "The room is just for me, as the lady says. There's no way i'd spend the night in the same room as her either way. Even if she begged me to." Ike smiled as the bar keeper turned to get the food and room situated. He turned back to Kityuisa, "Am I really that bad? Haha..." He shook his head, "And you can take your time thinking it over. I'll be here if you ever need to talk." He then shot Kityuisa a friend request. The bar tender came back and gave the to go food to Kityuisa, telling Ike his own food was up in his room, he handed over a key, "Well, see you around Kityuisa. Bye, bye Willow." Ike waved goodbye as he made his way up to his room, to eat, drink and enjoy a well-deserved night's rest.

Ike chuckled, "Be happy Kityuisa! You have your friends! You have a freaking cat! You literally have the world in your left palm and what are you doing with it? You're planning on fighting field bosses alone and trying to cast away people." Ike smiled, "You could do better, you know." Ike smirked, "I don't know you that well, but I think you're better than the negativity that has eaten at you. Forget about the past, move on from the people that have been lost. Don't forget them, but don't like every day in a bottle of depression because of it. As this one movie once stated, when the world turns your back on you, you turn your back on the world! You need to have no worries! Shoot for the sky! Aim for the stars. I believe in you." Ike stopped his motivational speech. He hadn't been expecting to say as much as he had. He waved the bar keeper over, "Hey yeah, can we get some bread rolls and some water..." He dropped some col in the inn keeper's palm, "And can I get a one night stay? Thanks." 

Ike grinned, "There we go. Now, tell me more about yourself." Ike stared into the flames, "Yeah... I do want to go back.. Don't you?" Ike blinked, looking back at Kityuisa, "The real world is where all the good stuff is. Here you can die... I would rather play games that don't have that factor added to them.." Ike looked back into the fire. He did not want to experience death, like how the monsters burst into pixels. Ike wanted to leave this place. He had hope, and he wouldn't let anyone take that hope away.

"Y'know Kityuisa, you need a bit more positivity in your life." Ike grinned, "Don't you have people that make you happy?" Ike questioned curiously. He opened his inventory and began going through it. His stats hidden to everyone as he wasn't on his stat page, "We should probably order something. After all, that innkeeper gave us these towels. We owe him."  

Ike laughed at the way Kityuisa replied, "What I mean is like, what did you do before you joined the game?" Ike realized how blunt and risky it was to ask a player, one that could easily kill him in a single hit... About her personal life, so he decided to go first. "Well.. My username has been Ike for as long as i've played games. I am an online high school student, and I am currently eighteen years old. I came here when I was sixteen. So I suppose when I go back i'll have to catch up on school. I am a single child, and I used to stream a lot.. Though I doubt my presence will still exist by the time i'm back.. For if it does, it won't be the same." Ike left out the part about being a big time streamer. Along with the fact that he was a millionaire. 

Ike nudged Kityuisa, "That's what I meant. It's your turn now. Oh! I am also trying to be a support build. I wanna support people, heal em up. That sorta thing. It just sorta feels right here. I don't want anyone dying on me." 

Ike could barely hear Kityuisa over the sound of the pouring rain, but followed her nontheless into the cafe she had just entered. Willow jumped out of his hands and ran over to the fire, sitting on the floor, she shook her pelt before beginning to run her tongue through her pelt. Ike grinned, making his way over as well.

"This is really quite the storm." Ike glanced out the window, the rain wouldn't seem to let up any time soon, "Might as well get to know each other yeah?" Ike nudged Kityuisa with his elbow. The bar tender coming over with three towels. Ike took one and began running it along his skin, ruffling his hair, drying it.

His clothes were still soaking however so he stood next to Kityuisa, warming himself up by the fire that was flaming and bringing about warmth. Ike let the warmth seep into his skin as his platinum blonde/ white tinted hair began to dry.

Ike watched as the three of them disappeared a reappeared on floor twenty-two. The rain was pouring so fast that Ike figured sight seeing could wait until it calmed down. Ike watched as Kityuisa began to run and he broke into a run himself to keep up. He looked down to see Willow and Kityuisa have a fight before Willow turned her attention to Ike. As Ike kept running, he scooped down and pulled Willow into his arms.

The poor wet cat shuddered as she was freezing. Her hissing continuing. She obviously hated water. Ike covered her as much as he could as he ran, her claws clinging to his armor as if trying to act out how uncomfortable she felt. Ike felt her pain, he was never really outside in the rain. Minus the photo shoots he had done in the rain. But even then it hadn't been as bad as this! Another lightning stroke down close by and Ike picked up the pase, grabbing Kityuisa's hand and pulling her along.

Ike watched as Kityuisa landed the final blow. Her sword skill causing a glowing triangle to appear, glowing in such a way to take the appearance of blood. Ike shuddered and watched as it burst into pixels. A window popped up, he had managed to deal enough damage to get a drop as well? His eyebrows raised. 

Kityuisa began to leave him in the trees, but Ike moved fast enough to catch up with the quickly retreating figure. "Yeah, i'll come. You got the tea?" Ike smirked, following Kityuisa to the town teleporter. He got on and offered a hand to her. "Come on, slow poke." Ike joked around with her. 

Ike himself wanted a pet! Kityuisa had Willow, and Willow was adorable! Ike would ask her about it when they got back to her shop. If it was a quest... He might just have to do it anyways. Despite his hatred for quests, he would do anything to get a familiar.

Ike chuckled as the Avalanche moved last minute for Kityuisa, she had just scolded him about getting his sword stuck in that darn tree! And then she had missed! but his chuckle fell short as she maneuvered herself to correct herself. Her body landing, facing the avalanche as it bore its fist down on her. Ike's eyes widened, she was taking his attacks full on, unafraid. 

He watched as her health pool dipped a small smidgen. He wished his health pool was that high.. One hit and he would be done for. It was dumb of him to think he could kill it on his own...

Ike shrugged, what could he do about it? He would just be more careful in the future. Ike ran at the Avalanche. His sword charging forward as he swung it around his head, hitting the Avalanche and landing a critical hit. 

Ike moved backwards, "Switch?" His gaze landing on Kityuisa. Knowing full well she could finish it off. He had dealt a nice amount of damage, he was proud of it. Seven hit points? Easy. Killing this field boss? Easy. Nothing was too hard for Ike.

Ike struggled to get his blade free watching as Kityuisa whizzed past him. Damn, she's good. Ike smirked, he would prove to her that he wasn't useless! Ike freed his sword and as she made her comment he simply ran forward, slamming his sword down on the back of the Avalanche.

He leaped back to Kityuisa, "How was that for you?" His lopsided grin peeking through as he tossed his head, his hair shifting out of his eyes. 

Ike glanced back up at the Avalanche it had seemed to grow pissed off. Two consecutive attacks? Unheard of! Ike actually landing on his target? Unheard of! 

Ike knew he would rather use his skills to heal Kityuisa of the damage that the Avalanche had inflicted, but he did not have the healing skill yet... He would just have to keep working hard to get it. Then he could become the true support he always wanted to be.

Ike had heard of this field boss. It was very much like him to fight all the monsters, so it was only natural for him to work his way over to the snowy biomes of floor four. His minty eyes spotting Kityuisa. Her blonde hair moving slightly in the wind. Ike covered his face, shaking his head. Of course she would be here... She's always looking for a challenge. Ike chuckled to himself before moving closer to her.

"Well if it isn't Kityuisa. Seems you had the same idea as me. Fighting this Avalanche?" His eyes looked up at the monster that was within the trees. They were both far enough away to not obtain the monster's aggro. Ike nodded, "If you are, then feel free to join me, if not, then let me take care of this thing so I can get the drop." Ike dashed forward, his giant straight sword aimed for the monster.
