I had a feeling! and that's part of the reason I'm asking you to show me, because I don't trust your unitmates to be as creative about it. I'm looking for interesting... not bo~oring.
[ takes a seat and leans into five, tail flitting back and forth as he noms the donut. he'll pour them both some coffee afterward, leaving five's as is and then putting some milk and sugar into his own. ]
I don't know. Anything? Everything. I'm just looking to see how other units fight with their abilities. It seems like it could get really interesting with the diversity.
Well. Then if you're looking to see them in action in an actual fight I do have to decline.
I can be creative with them just fine, but like you said. I don't like fighting. And as much as I like you I'm not going to give you an advantage over me in a game.
The best I can give you is a general explanation and potential samples.
I already have an advantage over you. I don't need another handicap. [ sneers. ] But [ sighs. ] I thought you were trying to make this date a 10/10. I want to see sensei put up a little bit of a fight... [ bumps shoulders with him a bit more roughly than strictly necessary. ] But I'll take whatever I can get.
I fight when it's necessary, or to kill. And I'm not entirely sure I'd be able to stop myself from doing the latter, depending on circumstances. And things have been - well. Already stressful enough that I don't need to add attempting to kill my brother's unitmate on the list.
Photographic memory is not something that can be used in a fight, but it can be used to memorize weaknesses. All I need is to see something once and I'll recall it perfectly again. So for example, if you were injured.
Or if you were to have a particular tattoo that has you react incredibly strongly to the touch.
...hot. [ like, for real, he's not even joking! he enjoys fights to death and thinking about going toe to toe with five is getting him excited. how annoying is it that a bunch of trauma had to go and happen recently to make him weary of actually taking part... y'know, beyond his hatred of fighting for reasons other than necessity. ] Alright, fine, I'll stop bringing it up.
Don't tell me if we ever get into it you're going to touch my horny tattoo during a fight to try to render me useless. [ burst out laughing. ]
But that was because I set a part of you that you ended up changing it. I would have to make sure I won't repeat that mistake.
Or I could take a small sacrifice and use In Solidarity. It allows any wound inflicted to be doubled on a target I can see. Which means if you break my wrists I can just have it break yours too.
I'll just turn sensei into a harmless little kitten and then step on your tail. [ snickers. ] A huffy and puffy angry little kitten. But aha~ that's interesting. I guess I'll have to be careful about how I hurt you, though it's a good thing I'll do whatever to win a fight too. A broken wrist is nothing if it means I get to hear my opponent howl in pain~
Common Law can prevent any event from happening with an area. So I could declare one that says no one can turn into an animal and, well. There goes your strategy.
There are limits to the ability but as you can imagine. I'm not about to share them.
As for the other two abilities. One is Swear on Your Honor, which you already saw me use. It provides a contract that can alter reality within a certain extent.
The other is Makes Perfect. It allows the user to repeat any action that was performed successfully once, regardless of the person's actual condition. So for example, if I wanted to touch your horny tattoo and you broke my wrists. I could still touch it because I've already touched it once.
[ rolls his eyes. ] I would like to get to see more of that one, though perhaps in another not so dire circumstance. It seemed like it could be... fun.
[ ...his mind goes right to the gutter as five explains makes perfect. WUPS. ] Hn? [ blinks, since he'd become distracted. ] So despite the state of your hand it'd remember the motion enough to just... do it, basically?
I've never used a contract for those type of circumstances. But I suppose it could be done, yes. Usually I call a law, but that does mean it affects me too.
As for your question, yes. I've used it frequently to carry myself back home when I was passed out drunk, my first days here.
[ why are you people like this between childe and cardinal now it's 2 horny for contracts. He doesn't reach for another donut but he does take the coffee ]
There are other creative ways to do it. For example a former teammate used it to carry a piano on his own, once.
As you can see most of Taisho's abilities revolve around bending reality in a way or another.
[ smirks. ] No one is as creative as me. I'm really looking forward to getting into a fight where I can show off just what Wild City can do. It's going to be a blast~ but next time you decide to take one of those potions let me know. There *is* something I want to try.
[ ... ]
[ slips his arm around five and tugs him a little closer. ] ...view is real nice here, no?
[ it feels a little weird because he's never this affectionate with anyone besides The Old Men, and even with Cardinal it's a new development. But it's nice, so he's not going to complain. Maybe Emet is right. Maybe he is a little smitten. ]
It's nice, yeah. ... The company is nice too.
[ a pause, then he clears his throat ]
And what is it that you have in mind once I take a potion? I can also just meet you in a dream, you know.
Of course it is. [ he turns his head and drags his nose along five’s cheek, smiling before giving him a kiss. ] But I’m glad you like it.
I just wanted to test out some of Wild City’s abilities... [ he releases a small about of pheromones, just so five can get a bit of an idea. nothing too crazy! but he should start to feel a bit ‘warmer’. ] I have my own scent, and I can assert my dominance as an Alpha using it.

[ he'll sit down once he sets everything down, and just takes the snack and offer one donut to him so they can eat ]
What did you want me to show you?

Re: Caeli
Apt, considering you just said my likely being unable to hold back would be hot for you.
Re: Caeli
Not completely wrong. Hahahaha. But I do like somebody that's willing to go all out for a fight.
Re: Caeli
Da capo will set someone, or something if we go for an object, to behave in a repeated pattern.
So I could force any part of you in a loop, preventing you from actually reaching me.

Re: Caeli
Interesting. It seems like there's a lot of stuff to be done with Taisho's abilities. Wild City's theme should probably be pretty obvious, hahaha.,
Re: Caeli
To be honest before our encounter I had assumed they were mostly useless abilities.

It sounds hot and he does in fact already feel hot with just that much. On the other, he has his pride. ]
We're not talking about you asserting dominance over me.
