+ find them easier than any other being. )
Perhaps it is best to start over with a fresh slate. You are no longer Hashimoto, so I am meeting a /new/ Mizuki.
One that canโฆ ah.. roam freely. And make his own path.
( despite a mechanical face, he did seem to portray some sense of forgiveness towards the other. )
It is.. alright. I was a bit crude to push you to that point, as well.

Soโฆ I suppose I have already been dismantled and thrown into a gutter.
I had the strength to come back stronger.
Do you?
Because you have your chance to make larger steps now.
We are not the same in any form. I apologize if you are upset with that.
( he raised a hand up in a gesture of peace. Temporary peace, but still peace. )
But we both come from an early life of forced work. I did not share your upbringing, but my body is not mine. It was +
And I should return the wording in a manner that would make more sense to you-
Shall I tell you to become dismembered and die brutally because you enjoy a hobby? A career?
( oh, heโs getting testy now, pupils whirring as they retracted to small pinpoints. )
You entertain me.
donโt you dare compare yourself to me . you sound exactly like her , two peas in a pod huh โฆ
( he was feeling acutely bitter , and he didnโt like it . perhaps the latterโs reason alone struck a nerve , one that made him feel unpleasant . )
@nlngenshlkkaku โBefore? Have you never kept up with it? Mizuki- I am the top racer in the world right now.โ
He snickered, eyes closing as if he were pretending to laugh with glee.
โI remember Casinoโs very first race. It was one of the few times I ever lost- Iโve only ever lost to him.โ
@nlngenshlkkaku He gave a shrug, eyes meeting Mizukiโs.
โBecause you wouldnโt enjoy the answer. Why would I want to give that to you?โ
A robotic chuckle.
โIโm a people pleaserโฆ but if you insist- I had quite an affection forโฆ ah- I am not sure youโre familiar with Jae-Eun..โ
@nlngenshlkkaku No, no. You donโt want to hear.
Not like I would tell you, regardless. You may night like the answers Iโd give.
( his voice is trailing off, eyes as well. Seems he was definitely hiding something. )
+ be dismantled?
( now it was more hurt, the lights illuminating his eyes dimming down )
Do you know how much I have worked for this, just as you have worked to escape your past?
And /I/ should be dismantled? Left to rust in a ditch? Sold for scrap?
( blinking in a bit of shock. )
How cruel.
( his tone dropped to something more accusatory, making sure Mizuki understood the very weight of those words he had said. )
All because I take money? I have never killed. I do not harm innocents.
And for driving a car, I should +
@g4mb1ingAdd1c7 then go and get dismantled .
( that was stated boldly , and rather cold at that . maybe he wasnโt being as clear - minded as he usually was , perhaps bitterness took over for their rather stupid reason . )
@_KXKKAI_ Ah-ah.
( raising his hands in defense as he spoke. )
I am bound by a contract. One option is to continue my racing career under them. My other option is being found dismantled in a scrapping facility.
Iโm certain you understand why I have made the choice I made.
I donโt find much difference between them and humankind.
But I suppose we all have our opinions.
That is why I never joined them- my contract may bind me to them in terms of racing, but I donโt want to be a gangster.
Rotten or not, we are both stuck with them.
this is completely different and you know that . some people are gross ... yes. but the hashimoto .แฃ they are rotten to the core .
thereโs no salvation ห no forgiveness for them . who cares if they are hot or not . ew .
Glowing eyes followed the fanโs motion for a split second, before he deemed it wasnโt a threat.
His hands slipped into his coat pockets, and he held out two small magenta and white wristbands.
โThese will get you into any race I am in. Feel free to use them, or pawn them.โ
She grabbed the fan, snapping it open and into the air. The moonlight shined off the cold steel, but all she did was lightly fan herself.
She gave a small sigh. No contract would convince her of anything, but maybe if she took the offer, the other would go away.
โFine.โ
@_KXKKAI_ No better? No better?!
( oh, a little saltiness there. )
I am a better racer, she WRECKED her bike-!
( clearing his throat- or well, something akin to that. )
I am not Hashimoto. It is simple- I am paid to race under a company they happen to handle, and I race. Simple.
@_KXKKAI_ There is beauty in some things. A diamond can cut, and graphite can create art.
You cannot have good if there is no evil.
Ah, Iโm getting ahead of myself. Where are my manners?
It is not my place to attempt to teach you.
( a robotic laugh coming from his chest. )
@_KXKKAI_ Well, not all things can be glitz and glamor.
There must be ugliness to forge rare beauties. Graphite and diamonds are the same, after all.
Simply forged differently, and one is.. so much more pleasing to the eye.
( his pupils dilated with a quiet whirring noise. )
