As far as first meetings between villains went the Hibernacula was a pretty safe bet to ensure nothing went wrong. Well, violently anyway. The club didn't exactly stop clients from scamming each other. That just came with the territory. Retsu didn't need anyone to do that for her though. Her reputation preceded her. Sure, she'd been scammed before but it wasn't like anyone that wanted to try could ask them how they did it. Not unless their quirk involved Necromancy.
"Yo," Retsu greeted the person she was there to meet as she sat down sideways on the bar stool next to him, one arm leaning on the counter as she got settled. Gesturing a waiter over she ordered a sazerac and gestured for Church's next drink to be put on her tab as well.
"So. Ah heard ya were lookin' ta make a trade?"
She leisurely looked around the place as she talked, not bothering to look him in the face just yet. He'd yet to prove any of this wasn't just a waste of time. That wasn't to say she wasn't taking him seriously however. Despite the safety provided by the club her other hand was resting on her thigh in a way that wouldn't arouse suspicion but put it very, very close to the concealed hilt of Temper. She wouldn't strike first, not in Elias's den, but she'd strike last if Church did. Of that she'd make sure.

A minute ago. "Hmph. I have no interest in a broken, empty vessel. Leave.""Ah, ya know then, huh? Ah'll cut ya a deal. Tell me what a wan-""Maya, go fetch the materials in case seventeen.""Yes, father."Retsu's eye twitched at the interruption, disrespect and casual disregard for her presence. Aiming her full wrath at the scientist in front of her -that was still peering through his microscope- she didn't bother to stop the demure girl from leaving."Roite. We ken either do this the easy way 'r the-""Tch. Begone, scraps of Bilrost. I am too busy to work with broken tools.""-hard way." He'd made his choice. Palming a small disk-shaped bomb she pressed the button in the center and threw it at his chest. The explosion should be small enough to take him out without damaging the surroundings. A pair of wings erupting from his back put that theory to rest, especially when one of them batted the explosive up to detonate the roof instead. His chair finally swiveled her way, narcissistic rage in his eyes at the audacity of her attack."Know your place."The second wing took her right in the chest sending her through the wooden front door.Now. "Haaaaaah?!" Retsu eloquently retorted. "Ah dun' fookin' care how many a' you dere are!"With the smoke still obscuring the view into the scientist's house Retsu turned her full attention to the new threat. An artillery cannon made out of light. Her teeth grit. She was gonna fookin' kill all of them. Pulling a grenade free at the same time as she dodged sideways to make sure nothing had a straight shot from her inside of the house and hopefully avoid whichever shot was about to be fired her way from the cannon she flung the grenade at the redhead."Here's y'r good fookin' reason!"It wasn't one of her normal ones. Retsu had come loaded for bear. This one in particular was a monofilament wire grenade that would send a dozen small capsules outupon detonation, each of which had several monofilament wires on a rapidly rotating spool. Said wires had a length of about two meters and while they couldn't cut through armor or the like they were more than capable of slicing through flesh. The moment the grenade went flying Retsu was already considering her next move, her eye peeled for any retaliation beyond the first shot.tagged: junsuina || word count: 416 || notes: x

BLOW UP! HP: ▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰ 100/100 Retsu put the dead in deadpan as she blankly stared up at Taro after his comment. She'd be tempted to shove a foot up his ass if that one foot wasn't already firmly in the grave. Whatever. She didn't have the capacity to care about his disrespect right now. It'd be paid back in full later. "Hmm- ghh."
Her attempt to let out an acknowledging hum were cut off when the vibration of her vocal cords agitated the shard of obsidian stuck in her throat. Retsu's next breath came out a little raspier as a result while she reached out to take his hand. She was in no condition to stand up but she'd walked off worse, she could do so again.
Her fingers brushed up against his forearm and her entire world changed. Romantic as the phrase might sound it was anything but for her. She'd had some revelations recently, some clearer than others, which made what she saw in front of her stand out even more. Especially given that staring at the box made of light didn't seem to hurt her left eye.
[Join Party?]
She didn't trust it at all. It sounded like some kind of deal with the devil, yes, there was no w-
For a brief moment Retsu's form flickered like Taro's own just before all of her injuries vanished along with the pain. She blinked in surprise. What the fook had just happened? Her eyes darted around to spot anything else out of the norm but externally everything seemed the same. Only she herself had changed. Looking around didn't agitate her left eye no matter how much light hit it and tactile feedback seemed different in an entirely unfamiliar way. Her hand jerked back while she shot an absolutely venomous look at Taro.
"What the fook did you do?!"

When she's not out drinking or having fun she's usually found within her workshop tinkering with one thing or the other. In general there are only two things that get Retsu to be quiet. The first is when she's crafting explosives, the sole activity on which she can stay focused for hours at a time. The second is when she's incredibly angry. While usually boisterous and quick to fire back there's a point where when she's pushed too far her anger turns cold. When Retsu gets to the point of cold anger being in her vicinity can be incredibly dangerous. For while it is rare that she gets to this point she'll aim to remove the cause of her anger with extreme prejudice.
For the most part however Retsu does not take things seriously. She maintains a 'live and let live' philosophy for anything that doesn't concern her. When something -or someone- gets in her way she rarely considers them however, simply heading past or around the obstacle in whatever way is the quickest, whether this method is moral or not. Due to her love for explosive and 'when all you have a hammer, everything starts to look like a nail' her problem solving skills are not the most developed.
Living in a world where money is what matters and trust is in short supply Retsu maintains a wide variety of surface level relations but has never formed any form of meaningful connection with anyone. Her understanding of the importance of networking and reliability due to her profession makes her a steadfast ally so long as both sides benefit from it but a very uncaring bystander the moment those benefits run out.
[div][attr="class","body"][div][attr="class","header2"]APPEARANCE[/div][img style="max-width:100%;" src="https://i.imgur.com/XeMTAxB.gif"]

Retsu has waist length dark purple hair and light purple eyes. Standing at a bit over five foot four she's roughly average sized for her age. She has a relatively lean and slightly muscular build to exercise mixed with poor dietary habits. She usually defaults to wearing a tank top or sleeveless shirt and loose fitting drab colored pants with lots of pockets. Over her left eye she wears an eye patch of her own design. Whether this is a practical choice or an aesthetical one is unknown. There is a wide variety of rumors as to why she wears it ranging from damage to her eye, the intent to 'look cool', a backup plan in case she gets caught up in one of her own flash bangs or even that she inherited it from her grandfather. No one's managed to get a straight answer out of her and given that it appears to be a sore subject to her few keep insisting of finding out.
She tends to keep a combat knife on her person, hidden when in public and displayed more openly when traversing dangerous areas.
[div][attr="class","body"][div][attr="class","header2"]HISTORY[/div] 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.

ForenSec.
It was a company that had only recently made its way to Japan and one that had a purely domestic workforce despite its foreign origins. At least that was the official story. In between hiring info brokers and raiding myriad facilities recently Retsu had stumbled upon a lot of dirt, trickery and legal loopholes. The truth behind this company fell within several of those categories. A corporation that was little more than the furthest end of a string of foreign companies that existed for naught but tax purposes had been used as the fake parent company for ForenSec to hide its true purpose, the security company itself being little more than a facade for their local money laundering operation.
That had been what the first source of intel she'd gotten that contained the name had said. The second revealed that it went a layer deeper, the laundering itself being a front for darker purposes. She'd only found out about it since the company's name was mentioned in the blackmail material a group she'd raided had on an asset with cannibalistic tendencies.
Another detonation signaled the demise of one of the suspiciously well armed 'security officers'. Well, so she'd assumed. A bullet clanking off the utility pole she was just stepping past informed her of the inaccuracy. Another grenade was in motion before she even finished looking their way, the spherical device vanishing into a flat plane like it'd fallen into a pond -ripples and all- and emerging from a second to the side to blow up harmlessly in the distance. Well, harmless to her opponents, not so much to the fleeing civilians.
Clicking her tongue she grabbed one of the larger and heavier grenade models from one of her pouches. A cluster bomb containing two dozen marble-sized explosives. She tossed it underhanded with her full force to arc it over the shield. Her opponent responded as expected, moving the whole thing to cover him from above and widening it to cover the area around him as well. Pulling her pistol from her holster she gave him a forehead piercing for his troubles before holstering the gun once more, just in time for the cluster bomb to go off and shower his now unguarded comrades.
That took care of their first strike team, now she'd have to deal with the rest that had dug in with the time these had bought. With some luck she'd be done before there was a response from the authoriti-
Hmm? Squinting her eye she looked up, not sure what she saw. Was that a bird? A plane?

"Sure," Retsu snorted. "That's what that was." She was too stunned and furious to explain her own theory. The pain in her eye had vanished at the same time as the invisible man had lost what made him special, something she'd only noticed when it slammed back into her with renewed intensity. That confirmation left a bitter taste in her mouth. Her teeth grit together so hard it made her gums bleed while she slid her eyepatch back into place.
The pain stopped worsening but the pounding headache would take hours to fade. It didn't matter. She'd gotten what she came for here and then some. Turning on her heel she made her way back out. Retsu was in no mood to continue any sort of conversation.
"Fer what it's worth ah rekken y'r move worked."
She didn't bother to turn his way while speaking. Having pulled a small screwdriver out of one of her pouches she fiddled with the faulty equipment she'd tried to use. Having it jam like that at the wrong time was bound to get her killed. She'd have to tinker with this one some more to get it ready. Maybe switch out the barrel and if she was doing that anyway she might as well take another look at the entire design.
"Good luck with y'r shit."
Giving encouragement like that was entirely uncharacteristic for Retsu. She barely even noticed she did it nor did she have the capacity for introspection required to figure out why she did it even if she realized.
No, Retsu simply moved on as she always did. One foot in front of the other. tagged: 🆁🅴🅼 || word count: 285 || notes: x

Retsu let out a hum that was half skeptical and half irate. Strong powers ey? Rui certainly counted for that. Guess she herself didn’t. She was going to enjoy setting this place on fire when they were done with it.
Her eyebrow went up when she saw Rui’s suddenly slouched posture. Was she attempting to act natural? That brought a scowl to her face. This was what Rui was like when she was with Koi, huh? Her hand twitched towards Temper’s ignition. She felt almost grateful when Olivia cut open the door saving her the hassle. The element of surprise wasn’t worth nearly as useful as just maintaining momentum and blazing through the facility.
"More den one. Bring anyone that looks important ta me. Ah brought sealin’ foam grenades ta lock the fookers down ‘til we need em."
Stepping through the destroyed door and past the screaming employee that Rui was going to town on Retsu reached a door to a guard post just as someone stuck his head out to see what the commotion was about. Socking him in the face she made him fall back inside, tossed a grenade in after him and closed the door again. They didn’t have time to waste on doormen.
The faint scent of antiseptic hanging in the air reminded her of those few times one gang or the other had taken her to some back alley doctor after a job gone wrong, albeit the clean surroundings and hard angles were a far cry from the squalid mess she’d had to deal with. The width and height of the corridors surprised her. She supposed it was easier with quirks but hewing that much rock out of the mountainside without tipping anyone off implied a breadth of resources that made her bristle. Five sets of footsteps in the distance tipped her off to the fact that their response team was rather fast too, their training clearly impressive. Anger roiled beneath the surface at that thought. The investment here was huge. The kind that implied backing that made what the Akimichi had possessed look like playground shenanigans.
“Rui, call out anyone ya recognize. Yingshe, kill the rest.”

The second the grenade had left her palm Retsu crashed down on her hand and knees. Her injury took a moment to register. Instinct and gravity had compensated where thought was delayed. The difference in weight between her left and right side had caused her to topple in a tilted manner narrowly allowing her to catch herself entirely without even realizing she hadn't put any of her weight on her left arm. Had she tried she'd have found her efforts failing and her face hitting the dirt.
It'd have saved her some pain. The heat of the explosion reached her even here, at the very least letting her know her opponent was dealing with far worse. Her lips formed into an open mouthed half smile at that. A jagged thing made of spite and the kind of cruelty that could only come from the self-righteous belief that someone had received their dues. Her paling face made the expression even more ghastly, like a reddened gash torn through an empty canvas, the metaphorical representation of violence made manifest on Retsu's features.
'Burn.'
It wasn't personal yet in a way it was. The woman in front of her represented all those that tried to stop her and as she went up in flames a sordid ecstasy flooded through her veins. What Retsu saw here was the future. Hers and that of her enemies alike. A funeral pyre the likes of which the world had never seen before, lit by the fires of vengeance until it devoured all that she hated. Then and only then would she let the blaze consume her.
When she looked Anya in the face Retsu knew. They may be different in every possible way but that bit of spite in them? That was the same. With her lifeblood spilling out of the gash where her shoulder once was Retsu knew she wouldn't be able to dodge Stronghold's final strike. The last of her strength she could muster went into a downwards push, her legs remaining limp but her body being pushed upright as a result. In the moment before gravity could cause her to fall on her face fully Retsu palmed a thin disk shaped grenade, pressed the button in the center once and dropped it to her left. Just before the palm would impact it detonated flinging her to the right.
It didn't get her out of the strike range but it was just enough to stop it from being immediately lethal. Retsu knew pain. It was no stranger to her. Time and time again she'd been battered and broken to the point where death should have taken her. When the palm strike landed a scream made of pure agony left her, every bit of air in her lungs being used to wail. A crescendo to Anya's swan song.
The skeletal hand finished what the sword had started, crushing the side of her rib cage that had been cut and smashing her leg into an unrecognizable shape. Her left hip shattered into more pieces than a jigsaw puzzle and Retsu could feel bone fragments tearing into her organs. Such was the impact that the moment after the strike landed the right side of her body left the ground, her head coming up and neck rearing back from the force of the crash.
It let her once more look straight at Anya. The sight reflected in her purple eyes was one Retsu would carry with her for ages and for a moment something close to understanding flickered within them.
The crash resounded like a thunderclap and sent gravel flying in all directions, dust pluming up in an almost mushroom cloud as a result. Retsu's sight lost focus, unable to discern whether the obstructions she saw were debris in the dust or black spots in her vision. Blood leaked into her eyes from the wound on her head coloring her world red. Her teeth grit together so hard one cracked. She wasn't done yet. Not like this. Spitting out blood she sucked in a breath with the one lung that was still functional, ignoring how the other was filling with blood and partially collapsed. Her nails dug into the dirt as she struggled to get her hand under herself and push herself into a seated position.
It was almost like peeling off a sticker, the frayed ends sticking to the ground even as the rest was torn free. Her every motion came with a sickening squelch. Retsu couldn't hear it over the ringing in her ears. She was losing blood fast. With how many injuries she'd taken over the years Retsu could tell. She had minutes, no, a minute left at most. Retsu refused. Rationality didn't matter. Common sense didn't matter. Pain, injuries, limits? She'd laughed in the face of all of them. Igniting Temper once she was partially upright, held up by her intact right leg as much as the fact that her left leg was practically merged into the ground, Retsu brought the fiery blade up to her shoulder. Rather, the absence of it.
One would assume that with the adrenaline coursing through her and the injuries she'd already taken the pain of searing her arteries shut would barely register. Reality wasn't nearly so kind. Precious air was wasted on a pained hiss, mixing with blood and saliva on the way out. Bringing the flamethrower knife lower she repeated the process with her leg. This time she ran an entire line across the edge of her hip. Retsu had no delusions about it being able to be saved.
"Fraulein? Are you still alive?" An annoying voice echoed through the dust. "Ah, zhere you are. Don't die just yet. Salvation draws near." Hans's reassurances were more soliloquy than monologue, for Retsu heard not a word of them. Black crept nearer and nearer to the center of her red tinted vision. Naught but spite kept her conscious. It had been enough thus far. It would have to do now.

A stream of light sent a spike of pain through Retsu when it hit her left eye. Reaching a hand up she found the reason. Her eyepatch had slid down. Tearing it off fully with a growl Retsu only partially registered that it squelched when squeezed in her palm and left a red wetness all over her hand when she tossed it to the side.
A harsh, barking laugh escaped her when she saw the full Soul Incarnate manifest. Of course the arm wasn't even half the bullshit this quirker had access to. Opening her eyes as wide as she could Retsu relished in the pain of the broken and let herself fall. Halfway down she slammed her foot into the ground and pushed forward, her gaze not having left her target for even a second. As the sword drew closer and closer Retsu took a second step, her heart pounding as loudly in her chest as her feet on the gravel. This was it. Just her, her enemy and something to prove. The one moment Retsu felt truly alive.
She stumbled. Gravel clattered as her vision swam and pain wracked her battered form. Something in her back shifted and her leg twitched just as she tried to correct herself. Too slow. The blade was almost upon her.
'Ah, is this it?'
Like hell it was!
There was no way she was dying here. Not now and not like this. If she went out then she'd be going out her way and on her terms, not theirs. With a snarl she looked up at the construct, the pain in her eye almost seeming to fade as time slowed. Retsu could see it now. The massive sword's trajectory. It would hit her dead on, middle of her forehead even. She'd be split in half without being able to react. Her teeth began to grit, the motion feeling slow, oh so slow amidst the changing scene. Instinct had her right hand moving towards one of her pouches, determined to lash back even if it was the last thing she did.
Straining as hard as she could she tilted her neck to the right, putting her entire body behind the motion to avoid as much as she could. She didn't even make it partway before the sword struck. The side scraped past her ear as the edge struck her shoulder, cutting deeper and deeper while Retsu pulled to the side as hard as she could. Her clavicle shattered under the impact and her topmost ribs were sliced through.
Then the blade was past, her left arm falling to the ground as time sped up once more and her right threw a thermobaric grenade right at Stronghold.

"Yeah," Retsu added with a grin matched by the manic look in her eyes. "Cause ah've got half a mind ta make 'em pay fer their stupidity."
That was what the envelope was for. She'd gotten as far as she could without further intel. Raided labs, slain heroes and copious amounts of property damage were left in her wake yet still what she was looking for was out of reach. Hells, she'd even rolled up half the gangs that so much as looked at her funny and made the survivors scatter to the four winds. Even with all that Retsu had done little more than tear a nail from the behemoth that was her enemy. They said Rome wasn't built in a day but it sure was demolished in one.
She needed to hit her foe where it hurt instead. Everything they tried to build up she'd break down before salting the earth. This Elementalist fucker was first on the list. Retsu hadn't the slightest idea whether he was connected to Koi but she knew he was researching quirks. That was enough for her. He'd burn and all his research would be put on the pyre with him. Every bit of progress they'd made would be wiped away until she drew her targets out, no matter the cost.
Her suspicion rose again when Rem pulled the standard 'look behind you!' maneuver. She'd seen people with split personalities before, even the type that somehow managed to do it purposefully to feign weakness. Retsu wasn't stupid enough to fall for such a du-
With a muttered curse she span around and took a step back when the voice resounded behind her. Her 'pistol' came up and the trigger was pulled.
'Click.'
With another bout of muttered swearing and a second step back she slammed the thing into her leg before raising it once more. This time the cylindrical grenade launched with a 'Whump.' right at the attacker's torso.

Even the most well-made plans rarely survived first contact and Retsu's hadn't exactly spent a lot of time in the war room. In the second before contact when the fist turned into a palm Retsu realized there was no way she'd be able to dodge. Her grin turned manic. She was no stranger to rolling with the punches. What was a palm strike compared to that? Kicking off the ground so her feet would make contact with the palm first she prepared to leap away should Anya decide to close the giant hand around her. At the same time she palmed a thermite sticky grenade, one she'd throw at the center of the massive hand at the exact same time she was sent flying.
Retsu was no stranger to pain. She'd take stock of her injuries later. As she crashed into a utility pole with enough force to bend the steel and crack her ribs her gaze went to her opponent.
The EMP did nothing. That if nothing else gave her more info to work with. A consolation prize for the pity party that her opening move had been. The flashbang didn't do much more either but if nothing else it'd make Anya more cautious, a caution her final grenade would hammer home.
Thermite grenades lasted a while and this one in question could put its payload out for more than half a minute. The entire time it'd spit out a pyrotechnic composition hot enough to melt steel and while Retsu didn't expect the adhesive to hold up through the heat for nearly half as long it would still wreak havoc until Anya managed to deal with it.
One possible method in particular Retsu prepared for. Should Anya dematerialize the avatar she'd immediately draw her pistol and fire three rounds at the Pro Hero.

Deeper into the village an explosion resounded. Wood splinters flew through the air as the roof of one of the huts further from the waterfront erupted and scattered in all directions. The front door broke in half moments later when a purple-haired figure was sent flying out of it. Tumbling through the air Retsu crashed onto the ground and bounced once, twice and then thrice before she managed to slam her palm down and grind to a halt on hand and knee, nails digging into the ground as she did.
Her other hand reached into a pouch pulling free a firecracker pattern explosive -a set of small grenades on a steel wire attached to a ring- that she swung wide sending bombs at the walls, door opening and surrounding area alike with zero regard for collateral damage.
Closer to the harbor the only effects of the ongoing attack thus far would be the scattering people running in all directions. Amidst the crowd Jun might even catch a glimpse of a young girl with heterochromia running past her, the brightly colored eyes her only identifiable characteristic before she blends into the mass of fleeing forms.
