39 Souls [Voice Post]

[soul_dissonance]

Yet another one gone... Take care, Liz. Your sister probably needs to have you with her there more than here anyway.

So... I guess I'm doing some part-time work over at the Northern Lights. Heh. At least now it's official.
Oi. Black☆Star and Tsubaki, you should really try to stop by this place sometime. Most of The food here isn't half bad.

Otherwise, uh... there hasn't been a whole lot to talk about. Not that there ever really is, but... Maka hasn't been around the apartment all that much when I've been home. Probably busy with her book club stuff. Chrona's been playing out in the snow, and Kid is just minding his own as usual. Not so sure about Maka's old man. But then nobody cares to hear about him, so it doesn't really matter either way.

I stopped by the bar a few days ago to listen to Float perform. Not a bad sound.

[Maka is seen narrowing her eyes at whatever she seems to be working on in full concentration before she shifts her attention to the communicator that's beside her. Her expression twists to a gloomy one as she chews her bottom lip. After for a bit of stillness, she finally decides to remove the jacket that she was wearing--taking one last look at the device before closing her eyes sighing--and shields the communicator with her jacket to silence the rest of Soul's speech.]

...

Ma- ...ka.

[Soul sighs to himself as the camera of communicator gets covered in black, and he reaches a hand up to rub at one of his temples. He just doesn't get it.]

[asymmetriphobic.livejournal.com]

You work at the Northern Lights now? When did this happen?

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Since Shinji mentioned that felt like he needed to hire out a few more people awhile back.

I've been giving him a hand with stuff for free long before then... Might as well get a decent tab for it now.

[After a few minutes when there is silence, the black disappears and Maka's come in to view again---thinking Soul was done speaking--and calmly returns back to work.]

[asymmetriphobic.livejournal.com]

Well, that's nice. It'll keep you busy then, huh.

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Sometimes.

What are you going to do, Kid?

[asymmetriphobic.livejournal.com]

I'm not really sure. I might go back to the library.

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Let me know if you running into our "missing Meister" while you're there.

Something's up.

[asymmetriphobic.livejournal.com]

Alright. I'll tell her you're looking for her.

...she's been doing that a lot lately, running off. I wonder what she's up to, since I'm sure it's not her book club.

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

That... might not be such a good idea. But that's just how I feel about it.

Hm...

[asymmetriphobic.livejournal.com]

Alright, I'll refrain from mentioning it, then... I'll see what I can find out for you.

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

...Thanks.

[asymmetriphobic.livejournal.com]

It's nothing.

I've actually be rather curious about that myself.

[video&voice]

[surpasses-god.livejournal.com]

[The communicator clicks on, showing the ground before it flips up and Black☆Star's face is visible. He grins.]

Can't quite use it yet... Ah, me and Tsubaki'll stop by... [He's confused for a second] Northern Lights?

You're working?

[video&voice]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

[Soul chuckles, before switching on his own video feed, showing off his trademark grin.]

Aah. It's the name of a bar located downtown. A friend of mine runs the place.

Sort of. It's something to do. [He scratches his head.] There's no school or Eggs of Kishin here, so... I've got to make do with something.

[video&voice]

[surpasses-god.livejournal.com]

[He looks disappointed.]

Aww... Man! No Eggs? Right after me and Tsubaki got our first soul too...

Of course we'll come by! [A grin] You can get an autograph to celebrate the victory. Maybe even give one to your friend who owns the bar!

[prodigal-axe.livejournal.com]

Not half-bad eh?

[video&voice]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Tell me about it. Though there are still plenty of bad eggs in another sense. I won't be put out to rust here either way.

Cool. [He makes a face.] ...I don't want that. But I don't care if you try to give one to him though.

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Honest worker's opinion.

People eat up that kind of stuff.

[prodigal-axe.livejournal.com]

Tch. I oughta hire you to advertise then. I'd sure get some quieter nights.

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

What are you talking about?

You make more noise than I ever do.

[prodigal-axe.livejournal.com]

I meant we'd get less people.

[video&voice]

[surpasses-god.livejournal.com]

Can you rust? Besides. We'll just practice or something so we can get home and get more souls.

His bar'll be better with my great autograph.

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Then the "battery acid" that you keep trying to peddle would never be gone.

At least until someone like Bad Girl or that Helter guy start to run dry.

[prodigal-axe.livejournal.com]

Tch. The hell you say.. more for me, if no one else wants that shit.

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Now that would scare business away much quicker.

[video&voice]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Not like that. I don't even want to know what that would be like for a Weapon like me... Uh, more like my skills.

[He just laughs.] If you say so, Black☆Star.

[video&voice]

[surpasses-god.livejournal.com]

[He looks relieved.]

Good. I wouldn't want my Weapon rusting out.

Huh... Does that mean you can turn into a scythe?

[prodigal-axe.livejournal.com]

With you to help, we'll go all out on that shit.

[video&voice]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

I'm not worried. Tsubaki knows how to take care of herself and you.

[He nods his head a little.] Yeah... I got the chip that was suppressing those powers out a long time ago.

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

On second though... Just for that, I'm going to bring in the whole damn city.

[prodigal-axe.livejournal.com]

Good luck getting 'em to ignore that beeping shit. You can hear it real good from here.

[video&voice]

[surpasses-god.livejournal.com]

[ooc: :| and apparently I'm fail at remembering to check my inbox?]

Kyahaha. She does!

[He's shocked.] WE CAN GET THEM OUT?!

[video&voice]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

[The screen is directed toward part of the couch that Soul is sitting on, but he can be heard making a noise of disapproval as he pulls the communicator away from his face.]

Did you have to-...

[It is brought back slowly until his face can be seen again.]

If any of the doctors here can find it, yeah.
