There was probably a joke to make about getting high or turning the place upside down but neither were something Retsu would consider at the moment. All she could think was that if that fucker dragged mud in onto her fookin' ceiling she'd absolutely put a bullet in his ass. That could wait though, there were more important things to do. Things she was far happier to think about than the logistics of how the hells she was supposed to clean off footprints all the way up there. "Sure, wha'ever." She waved his question away. Pushing a bottle filled with a clear liquid she'd pulled out of the fridge and a brick-shaped metallic container from the cabinet to the fore she continued. "Aight so let's assume y'r done with the bottles and fire without fookin' y'r lungs up. Got y'r glycerin out and managed to put the sulfuric acid to good use too. How exactly 're ya gonna use that to make somethin' better or hells, on par with what y'r average SAT team's carrying around? Without havin' it blow up on ya too, 'member, only using the shit in here."She tapped her finger on the table for emphasis while waving her other hand at the various improvised tools scattered through the room, listening closely to what he'd say in reply. Even though her words seemed condescending it was clear there was little heat to them. Not much more than any discussion between passionate craftsmen would have, anyway. Already several ideas she'd barely considered before were coursing through her mind. A nervous energy settled in her core demanding she got to work. It took a level of restraint she rarely bothered with to wait and hear Juan out first.

It sounded like they were about to be knee deep in shit and Retsu was not confident she had a big enough paddle to row them out of it. Her eye looked over the people in her immediate vicinity. Counting the three hostages in she now had six people she could put in between her and whatever was coming but she doubted things would go that smoothly. After all, when it rains it pours. She grinned. Then all she had to do was add to the storm and hope she'd weather it better than whoever was coming, didn't she? Just like always. "Well shit, seems like she dun' give a fook about you, ey?" Retsu told the woman she was holding with an edge to her tone.
"W- wai-" "Makes two a' us."
The sailor didn't get farther before Retsu's gun went off and scattered the rest of her thoughts all over the deck. After having had to fight enemies heavily invested in the maritime industry Bakuretsu had become very aware of exactly how much work went into sailing something like this. They'd have to run a tight ship but if it was just to get them to shore four people would be more than enough, meaning that even if they themselves couldn't figure it out they still had one or two people to spare before things got troublesome. She was just about to start shouting orders when Firebrand's smug voice sounded over the radio. If life could be said to be about balance he sure seemed to compensate for his ignorance with vanity. Retsu clicked her tongue. Self important twat just had to make himself the only one that could speak over their comms didn't he? Either that or Retsu just hadn't figured out how to use them. She certainly wouldn't spare the latter any thought. A plan began to form in her head at the thought. Oh, she could use their ignorance. She very much could. "Gorillo, we've got incoming. Helicopter and a boat. I'll deal with the latter, ah can't hit the chopper out of the air and y'r stronger in a straight fight." The empty flattery filled her with disgust. In fact she could only tolerate saying it because she was confident he wasn't going to be telling anyone. Zipping her bag open and taking out some remotely-detonated mines she scattered half a dozen across the landing pad before placing one with a bigger yield in the center and keying them all to the same remote. The entire process took less than twenty seconds and she didn't hesitate to toss the detonator at Gorillo the moment she'd stepped away from the pad."Catch. Left a little surprise for 'em when dey land. Make sure they don't run outa y'r reach again, know what ah'm saying. Ah yeah." She adds offhandedly while shooting the hostage with the broken arm in the leg. "You keep an eye on that one, they kent bring out the big guns so long as he's alive. I'm gonna deal with the boat. You! With me, now!"
Yelling at the final hostage while she goaded him ahead of her. Bakuretsu didn't know how long she had left before the helicopter landed but she intended to use every second to her advantage. If she had the time she'd litter the way to the bridge with explosives. Laser triggered claymores behind corners, proximity mines next to anything on the way that looks like it might collapse from the blast and a few smoke grenades she pulled the pin off and tossed down random paths between containers to make her harder to track. All the while she'd keep her hostage close and in front of her, ready to use as a tool of negotiation or shield if need be should she be intercepted before she makes it to the bridge. ------ Tags: Revision Bakiri Retsu |

The acute silence that followed any intense conflict was something that was always underestimated. Suddenly going from explosions, adrenaline and near death to utter calm was a liminal experience that could unbalance even the hardiest veterans and make them feel like something was wrong. Like something was missing. For Retsu the mental feeling was accompanied by a physical one. It was gone. From one moment to the next, just gone. Her hand. Her fingers. Her future. Just like that. She hadn't even seen him coming. One moment she was taking down the Akimichis, her victory finally achieved after a long and arduous struggle. The next she was done for. Sure, she could technically still throw her weight around but it had certainly lessened, both metaphorically and literally. She collapsed to her knees. Retsu had already been standing in a rather haphazard way while reaching down into her bag and the combination of blood loss and shock didn't exactly contribute positively to her stability, be it mental or physical. When she turned her head down to look at her injuries it almost seemed like she was observing someone else, as if she were a passenger along for the ride in her own head while the injured woman's mouth opened and closed, debating whether she should use what little strength she had left to use the grenade tightly clasped between her index finger and thumb like it was her lifeline. If she was gonna go out she might as well do so with a bang, right? The decision was made for her when a shudder made it slip out of her blood-slicked fingers. Wasn't that just her luck? All this time, all this effort, all the sweat and tears just to get control over her own fate and when the time finally came it wasn't enough. She observed herself turning her head towards the approaching devil. Rui looked so much taller than she usually did, the bright smile atop her face so starkly in contrast to Retsu's own features it added further to her almost out-of-body experience. "Yo. We've gotta stop meeting like this." Her mouth vocalized. Seeing Rui casually treat the severed hand like a toy further brought to mind the image of a man-eating demon of myth and watching her wrap part of herself around Retsu made the purple-haired one feel odd. Like Retsu had stumbled into some nightmarish corner of reality not meant for human beings. The kind people wouldn't leave with their minds in tact and would spend the rest of their lives trying to rationalize.And then she had feeling in her hand again. Retsu noticed she blinked. The right hand clenched and unclenched, no sign left of its previous separation other than an invisible line below which her arm was covered in clotting blood moments ago and above which it seemed slightly paler than the rest of her body. It didn't look like hers. Too pristine, too unblemished by what Bakiri Retsu had just gone through to be part of her. Surely it too would show signs of how her world had just been on the verge of ending? It felt like it should show rents, tears or even rot yet it didn't.Her eye unfocused and she had to squint and blink to see again, her hand coming up unbidden and rubbed at it to get out the salty liquid obscuring her vision. Slowly her surroundings came into view again. Her other hand looked just as pristine as the one rubbing at her eye. It didn't make any sense whatsoever.Shaking her head side to side to get a hold of herself she took in the dilapidated remains of what had been a top of the line factory warehouse a century ago and was now relegated to serving as a stopping point for the Akimichis illicit goods before they were dispatched throughout the city and clearly as a temporary hold for prisoners as well. She was just about to open her mouth and address Rui when the whimsical girl turned to face the man that had nearly ended her life. What was it she'd heard Rui call him? Subaru?Huh, now she was calling him Sho. How did one get Sho from Subaru? She put the thought aside for now and pushed down the twinge she felt as he approached. Not a damn sign of that would show on her face, she'd make sure of it."Yo, name's Bakuretsu. All good. Shit happens when y'r out." She shrugged, her expression showing a level of nonchalance she absolutely did not feel. "Y've got soot on your shoulder bee tee dubs." Retsu added while pushing herself upright. That slight victory obtained she grit her teeth and took slow, careful steps to ensure she didn't end up swaying as she made her way to the man that had captured Rui and been pinned to the wall by Sho."Hey there, shrimp-face? Remember me? Y'r the one that shot me in the leg back then weren't cha? Well buckle up fucko cause have ah got a proposition for ya."------

As someone that owns a repair shop it would come as no surprise to anyone that she'd need to buy rust cleaner now and then. Sure, the frequency at which she went through bottles could arouse some suspicion but she made sure to rotate which places she bought from and to always pay in cash so as to not leave a trail. And hey, who doesn't need some detergent now and then? Especially in a profession like the one Retsu has. While she'd usually refrain from buying both at the same place at the same time she just happened to be out and on a bit of a schedule. Sure, someone might be able to put one and together but in a profession like hers neither purchase was something she could explain away and really, what were the odds she'd just happen to run into someone that knew what they could be used for? As she kicked a perforated bucket out of the way to allow the boy she'd brought home -for reasons very different from what one would expect- to enter her workshop she was once more reminded of the fact that when something could go wrong it would. "And ah'm saying that while that's noice an' all y'r just as likely ta blow y'rself up as anyone else if you use that stuff without proper fookin' equipment. Ah ain't exactly working out of the CAS here." She continued ranting while waving her hand at their surroundings, a large room at the back of her repair shop filled with all kinds of odds and ends, locked cabinets, several freezers and fridges as well as enough improvised tools and half-completed projects to end up on multiple watch lists. The fact that the large ventilator at the back of the room looked like it'd lived through the cold war just happened to be the cherry on the cake.Using the side of her fist to slam a lock open she rummaged through a cabinet to find several more chemicals to bring to the table where she'd already put down her newly acquired ones. "So, kiddo," Retsu said to the boy roughly her own age. "How would you have done it with just this stuff?"------

Retsu's eye widened. She'd been running for a bit towards where she'd been told the Akimichis were when she heard a very familiar voice cry out. ''GUN!-''A burst of adrenaline sent her forward faster than she could, one arm reaching into her bag while the other raised said bag horizontally in front of her as she reached the room she'd heard Rui and the subsequent gunshot from before it all fell quiet. She'd been taking this way too lightly, setting up distractions and sneaking her way through. Should've just blasted her way through all the obstacles, it'd never failed her before. As she neared the window everything seemed to slow down. She saw her own hand pull back out of her bag holding the end of one of her improved 'firecrackers', a set of small grenades linked by a thin, highly flammable rope that would catch fire the moment she pulled the cord attached to all the pins off sending a veritable barrage of explosions in whatever general direction she tossed it. With her mind running at a hundred miles an hour she wondered why she felt so strongly about this. The thought gave her pause even as she saw her own body continue her actions. Did she care about Rui? Impossible, she barely knew the girl. Was it because it was her fault that she'd come here and gotten caught? She felt a twinge deep inside. It might just be that, unlikely as she felt it was. Either way she had no time to continue thinking about it. Her bag finished raising up to head height and with a roar she put her full force into her jump, barreling through the window surrounded by a flurry of glass shards as the world came back into focus. She barely even paid attention as she let go and watched it drop, one hand pulling the cord triggering several pings even as her other reared back for the throw. Right before she threw it another door slammed open and she very much recognized who walked through. Or the third one at least. First came two professional armed guards, each aiming to one side of the room, the one on the right already swiveling their gun her way. Right after them came a man wearing a suit under his body armor and a bold shoulder above. He smugly ran his fingers over his koi-like mustache, the patches of gleaming scales on his cheeks glimmering as he walked, his gun raised atop his shoulder as if he were on a simple stroll instead of walking into a war zone. Behind him came three more people with similar features. They arrived just in time for bombs to start dropping between them. Two died outright alongside the guard aiming at Retsu while the third alongside the final guard lost more than one limb, only senior Akimichi himself ending up mostly unscathed. Unfortunately for him it didn't last long as her next firecracker was loosed just before Retsu managed to take in the rest of the scene. When she finally did she froze. "What in the fuck? Rui?"Unfortunately her words were inaudible due to the next burst of explosives going off and before she had time to ask again someone much scarier than the Akimichis was suddenly right in front of her. Her arm reached down to pick up an explosive, failing to reach when she found herself just one handspan short of it. A handspan she should have had. In fact, it was pretty much the exact length of the one that should've been attached to her bleeding stump. Reacting purely on instinct she managed to pull her other arm back just far enough that she only ended up losing three fingers on his second swing, her thumb completely intact and her index finger only having lost part of its first joint.
A scream of pain and disbelief escaped her lips before she bit down on her teeth so hard they bled and reached into her bag with what remained of her left hand. The man was heading for Rui. For a moment she cursed her choice of weaponry. She didn't have anything that could kill him without also taking out Rui. Then the thought passed, she shrugged mentally and pulled out the strongest bomb she had, one she was unsure she'd manage to survive even this far from where it'd go off. Her fingers clenched around it and she was just about to lift it up to her mouth to pull the pin when she heard him speak to Rui. They knew each other? She froze for a second and cursed in her head, hoping that mistake wouldn't be her last.

Retsu barked out a laugh at Elias's reply and craned an eyebrow at Sonya's, briefly looking her up and down before she refocused on the conversation. Her eye had lingered on the woman's prosthetic ones for a moment but she quickly put the matter aside. Even if she ever decided to replace her left eye she probably wouldn't be able to afford anything like that anyway. "Bakiri Retsu, local fixer. Saw the pipsqueek wander up here and wondered what that was all about." She shrugged, not showing that she felt somewhat slighted by the fact that Elias hadn't heard of her now that she knew he was the one in charge of Hibernacula. Her smile twitched. She'd take it as a challenge. Before long they'd all know her. "So, what are y'all up to anyway?" Retsu asked as she leaned her back against the railing and let one of her forearms rest atop it. She took a sip of her drink, enjoying the moment of clarity and boost of energy it sent through her system while her eye flicked from person to person. Taking in their body language she primed herself for action in case anything went wrong. They didn't seem like they'd explode into violence but she'd seen appearances be misleading before and Elias had mumbled something to a bouncer shortly before she'd reached the top of the stairs. Letting herself simply nod along she let her eye unfocus as her gaze ran over the people below, trying to see if there was any movement within the crowd that felt different from the norm. A person could be smart but groups always moved like sheep, or waves. If there was trouble coming she couldn't spot it coming their way at the very least.
It didn't stop her from feeling decidedly under equipped. A necessity given that she had intended to visit the Hibernacula without trying to cause trouble but grating nevertheless. She doubted the knife hidden within its sheath on her back would be enough to hold up in a fight if things went sideways. Still, she supposed it'd have to be enough. Not like she had anything else to use at the moment anyway.
But she digressed. Turning her head away from the crowd below and back to the group she sipped her drink again, taking comfort in the cooling energy it seemed to hold. ------ Tags: Elias Rui Matsui Sonya Chernovna Bakiri Retsu |

Whoever was in the next room bursting through the door guns blazing she'd have expected. Them running away through another door Retsu had considered even more likely. Destroying part of the building to use the roof -the fucking roof- to attack her, yeah, that one she hadn't accounted for. With a lot of swearing and a big new bruise on her forearm where she'd used it to shield her head from falling debris she'd made it to her breaching strip just as the thing went off. Her very own little bit of good luck as she'd managed to dive through the newly made hole just as the rest of the ceiling collapsed and covered the area she'd just been in with a lethal amount of cement, stone and steel. Establishing communications with the floor drove the air out of her lungs and her heavy duffel bag slamming into her back certainly didn't help. Even more unfortunately she instinctively gulped down her own tear gas setting off a coughing fit as she stumbled towards the edge of the room. The door was just in front of her but taking that way out would leave her prone to being ambushed by anyone on the other side. As much as extra holes in her lungs would help get the tear gas out faster Retsu didn't quite feel like getting shot up on the way out and instead took a step back. Holding her bag in front of her she decided to use what she'd just learned to her advantage: the fact that this place was clearly built by the cheapest bidder. With a roar she charged towards the wall and burst through the thin, rotting plaster dividing this room from the adjacent corridor while tossing a grenade down one end of it and charging the other. Perhaps if she hadn't been stuck in the middle of a cloud of vision-obscuring tear gas and in a rush to get out before she coughed her lungs out she'd have checked what kind of grenade she threw but she didn't quite have the mental capacity for it at the time. Uncaring of her struggle the incendiary grenade went off covering part of the corridor in liquid fire. Fortunately plaster wasn't flammable. Unfortunately however the planks used to cover other holes busted through said plaster in the past didn't share that same trait and the contents of the storage rooms weren't exactly stored in fire-secure ways either. Not that Retsu noticed or would care if she did. Sticking around long enough for that to become a problem was not part of her plans. Sure, she'd need to take a detour to get back to her motorcycle on the way back but the fire would also cut off anyone in this wing of the factory preventing them from reinforcing her targets. Heedless of the danger Retsu rushed off in the direction of the setting sun, occasionally throwing another miscellaneous grenade through a window or opened door when she thought she heard something inside as she made her way to her targets. She couldn't afford to take things slower. If the Akimichis got away she'd have done all of this for nothing. ------ Tags: Rui Matsui Shō Matsui Bakiri Retsu |

Either the rumors about Gorillo were wildly exaggerated or the man managed to keep a cooler head while on a mission than Retsu had expected. Whatever the answer was she was quite surprised to see only a single broken limb after he'd been left alone for several minutes. In fact, she was almost as surprised as she was annoyed at Loli-pop for fucking off the moment she'd have to work together with the suspected lunatic. Brat would probably be able to talk her way out of it by mentioning some 'strategy' or 'efficiency' thing too. Whatever. Retsu had better things to do than stew in her anger. Like putting it to use. "Ship control to helicopter, do not land unless ya wanna go digging lead out of the crew. Turn around and fook right off!" She yelled into the radio she'd snatched off one of the hostages' belt. For emphasis -and in case anyone was looking- she jammed the barrel of her new toy into the side of the muscular woman's head while wrapping her other arm, the one still holding the radio, around the poor sailor's neck from behind. Despite now having an improvised shield and a good reason for whoever was on the way to avoid aiming her way the sinking feeling in her stomach wasn't abating.
"Gor, git ready for shit to go sideways. Ah dun' get the feelin' these fucks are gonna play nice and listen."
The bare minimum done to warn her temporary ally she started backing away from the landing platform and towards the densely packed rows of shipping containers. Worst come to worst she could get behind them, pop some smoke and lose them into that maze until she could get some more bodies between her and whatever was about to be a threat. She flexed the muscles of her left leg, feeling the contours of some of her smoke and tear gas grenades pressing into the meat of her thigh through her pants' pockets. It would have to be enough and if it wasn't, well, she had plenty of less subtle problem solvers in her bag. ------ Tags: Revision Bakiri Retsu |

Change 'History' to:
[attr="class","body"] [attr="class","header2"]HISTORY Born quirkless to a poor family Retsu never had a bright future laid out before her. Answering mockery with punches she couldn't stand the 'little pricks' using their quirks 'by accident' while being beaten down. It was during one such incident she took a blast of light to her left eye leaving it damaged and painful to look through. The constant pain when not using an eyepatch only caused her anger to burn further and before long she fell in with the wrong crowd. By the time she was twelve she already had a reputation as a hot-headed lunatic with the local gangs. The sole reason she was allowed to stick around was that she had a knack for fixing things: broken tools, electronics or situations alike. Her true love however laid in explosives. Fixing electronics through trial and error had more than once caused them to explode and Retsu delighted greatly in figuring out how to maximize the effect. Much like her passion so too did her temper grow more and more explosive. The more she dealt with petty gangsters and thugs the more she became consumed by the violent nature of her profession. Seeing similar power structures all around executed at both large and small scales she grew to strongly dislike all forms of authority other than her own, viewing them as little more than threats of violence or harm to keep her cowed and in line. With examples all around it she slowly became better and better at using her own skills to get her way. It was only after a fight gone wrong when she was fourteen years old that she realized just how good at it she'd become. Having been left for dead in a ditch it'd taken her hours to crawl out and reach a hideout where she'd spend days recovering before daring to leave. When she finally got home her parents had welcomed her back as if she'd just been out for a walk, not even looking away from their work as they did. They were simply too afraid of her to ask where she'd been or risk looking her in the eye. That was the second last time she'd set foot in her family home. The final time was when she'd just turned sixteen and managed to scrounge up enough money to buy her own workshop, slipping in during the night just to get her birth certificate and other papers in case she'd ever need them before leaving once more without her parents ever knowing she was there. Over time part of the local gangs came to rely on her supply and connections. Using this to great effect Retsu took to solidifying her position and eliminating the gangs that stood against her until by the age of 19 she’d established a vast network of customers, prospective allies and collaborators. Operating out of her workshop turned repair shop that she'd named 'Wired' her reach is widening by the day and she is taking ever greater risks to keep the momentum going. On the surface her repair shop is exactly that: a store that repairs, fixes or otherwise modifies appliances, vehicles, tools or other miscellaneous items. While she certainly does do such work it is little more than a front for what really goes on in 'Wired'. For Retsu is a fixer in more ways than one. Supplying people with the weapons they need, using her network of contacts to ensure the right people are in the right places or even taking to the field herself are all things within the realm of possibilities. For the right price, of course.

[attr="class","body"] [attr="class","header2"]EQUIPMENT
EQUIPMENT NAME: Homemade Explosives EQUIPMENT RANK: C+ EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURER: Bakiri Retsu EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION: Over the years Retsu has produced a large variety of explosives. While not all of them work Retsu maintains a variety of proven designs including stun grenades(/flash bangs), rudimentary fragmentation grenades, smoke and tear gas grenades, incendiary grenades and even C4. Given the dangers of being caught with such a thing in the open however Retsu only carries them with her when she knows in advance they will be needed and/or useful. Change 'Explosive Manufacturing' from C to C+ (2000 EXP spent)
Change 'Engineering' from C- to C (1500 EXP spent)[attr="class","body"] [attr="class","header2"]SKILLS
SKILL NAME: Engineering SKILL RANK: C SKILL DESCRIPTION: Retsu has nearly a decade of experience fixing, tinkering with and creating all manner of contraptions. Whether practical appliances such as fridges and ovens, security oriented ones such as cameras and trip wires or even basic weaponry and hero equipment Retsu can fix, improve or even create whatever is needed provided she has access to the right materials and tools. ---  SKILL NAME: Explosive Manufacturing SKILL RANK: C+ SKILL DESCRIPTION: While her all round engineering knowledge and skills are nothing to scoff at it is her ability to manufacture explosives from a wide variety of materials -some easily attained- that lifts her status from that of a skilled craftsman to a genius. Possessing a near instinctive understanding of ratios and blast radii combined with a passion for the craft Bakiri Retsu works on her skills daily and the results show. Why, in the past year she's only blown up part of her workshop three times by accident!

"Makes sense." Retsu replied while dragging her bag closer to the fire and sitting down next to it. Pulling the zipper open she rummaged through a wide variety of different explosives without any caution whatsoever, occasionally batting away a stray spark from the fire as she did. "Ah, dere we go."With her tongue sticking out in concentration she carefully disconnected several wires leading from one of her C4s to a burner phone. Holding the side button to boot it up she put her number into its contact list before turning the screen towards Lylyth."Ah put my number and name in here, call if ya need me. May wanna go closer to the edge of the forest tho, dun think y've got reception here. Anyway, i'm turnin' it back off now to save battery. Just press 'n hold the button on the side to turn it back on and then the call button to call me if ya feel like it. That's this one here that looks like a banana with half circles at the ends. Phone's pretty tough but try to keep it out of the rain, doubt it can handle that."Her explanation finished she tossed the phone over to Lylyth while also telling her where she lived in case she wanted to visit in person instead of calling. Seeing that the wood was starting to burn properly Retsu used her combat knife to remove a few of the fishes' scales and innards before sticking them onto some nearby sticks to roast them over the fire. With a groan she leaned backwards, her arms extended straight down to hold herself up while she looked up at the sky. She'd test the rest of her prototypes on the way back but for now she was just gonna lean back and relax. Despite how she usually was it felt nice to do something like this now and then.
...so long as she didn't do it for too long, her nose would start bleeding again if she continued looking up like this. Ah well, she chuckled. There was always something, wasn't there?

Speech is silver and silence is gold. Be that as it may Bakuretsu might as well have found El Dorado with how little she'd been able to squeeze out of people in the last few days. She needed more information and she needed it fast enough that she could act before everything went to hell. So it was that she found herself here. Club Nirvana. Of course her real goal was to visit Hibernacula once more but there was no point in making it look like she was in a rush. Especially since she was. Retsu didn't exactly open any history books but she'd heard some ancient Chinese general had something similar to say on the subject. Given that said country had been messing around with explosives for nearly a millennia she was willing to take their word for it, not in the least because it happened to be along the lines of what she was already thinking. That it just so happened to involve her having fun before getting back to the grind certainly tipped the odds further into favor of said decision. "Open a tab and make me a Sazerac." Retsu offhandedly ordered one of the bartenders while sliding over her credit card and an ID that'd let her get the drink. She didn't know whether it was her real one and quite frankly she didn't care. She'd stopped keeping track of her age when she turned fourteen and had no idea exactly how old she was by now. Either way Retsu had more important things to do than sweat over small stuff like that. Scanning the crowd her gaze roamed through the club, momentarily stopping on several people before moving on from each in turn. She was far from the only one in the building checking other people out albeit she doubted many had quite the same intentions as her in doing so. Then again, nightlife could be akin to a hunt in more ways than one and not unlike how it was for Retsu right now, the club was only a small part of that process. Having spotted several people of interest -some by themselves, others clustered into little groups- Bakuretsu took a moment to consider which avenue to try first. Eventually her eye settled on the white haired man on the first floor that was now being joined by...Was that Rui? Well, Retsu supposed that was as good of a way in as any. Sighing as she stood up from her seat she downed her drink, ordered an espresso martini to take with her and made her way up the stairs. By the time she reached the top the duo had turned into a trio. She could practically feel an aura of threat hanging around them. Instincts were how you made it through the day when you were powerless in a world where people could mess with time or sneeze apart skyscrapers and right now, Retsu's instincts were screaming at her. This group was made up of people that killed as easily as they breathed, were a danger to any that crossed them and would brook no disrespect, plus Rui.A smirk that was closer to a snarl than a smirk settled on Bakuretsu's face. "Yo, y'all fall head first into a vat of bleach?"------
