Rips and Tears

“Be Ohno’s partner for this round Christian.” Ariana had said aloud. Ohno grinned a fraction before nodding to himself. Yep a Pactmaker.. no wonder Sho-o-Oh's so tense... I hope he gets time to relax.... The red haired man sighed to himself before smiling lightly.

“Mr. Ohno, I will be your partner for this coming round,” the butler had answered back. Ohno smirked a bit, and with that, the game was on. It started off simple enough. Right hand on red. Left hand on green. So on and so forth. However, in a matter of turns, Ohno had managed to weave himself obscurely around making his entire form twist in the center as he worked to keep both hands in the right places. Christian proved to have the same stamina and ease of access to the dots as Ohno had. However, the red haired man was not about to give up so easily, and instead, it became an increasingly twisted and obscure looking mass of arms and legs. In the, both forms looked rather much like a French pretzel in which one piece of bread was twisted around the other.

Aiba was watching rather astoundingly at Ohno's flexibility. In truth, Aiba had expected Ohno to be such, yet to expect and to actually see were two different things in themselves. "I... didn't think a back could bend like that without breaking....." Aisling's voice caused Aiba to look over at her and then at Ariana who was appearing most amused to say the least of things.

"I didn't either to be honest...." Aiba answered back as his eye twitched a fraction when he called right foot on green and both men had managed to tangle themselves up even more.

"Christian is very flexible...." Ariana commented with a laugh.

Aiba noticed that Sephira was talking to another guy not far off, and for a moment he blinked. Ookami let out a growl in irritation. What's wrong? Aiba thought quietly to Ookami.

This place reeks of demon and Merrick... who would you think anything is wrong? Ookami's sarcasm caused Aiba to frown. It was unlike the Wolf to be angry in this way, yet the dark haired boy tried to understand at least some of what was going on with it.

"Left foot red..." Aiba said as he stared down at the spinner for a moment.

"There are a lot of demons...." Aisling commented after a moment causing Aiba to jump a fraction and look at her rather confused. "But... their intentions are different from the demon lords'...." It was then that Aiba realized Ookami had not just spoken to him but shared his thoughts with Aisling as well. Ookami rarely did this if ever, and it made the dark haired boy wonder for a moment before he shook his head unsure of what exactly to say.

"You're quite resourceful," Christian's voice hit Ohno's ears as the red haired man tried to reach the designated spot. "I haven't seen a human weave illusion that well in quite a while...." The red haired man all but froze for a minute before laughing lightly.

"So you see through my Glass?" Ohno asked smiling a bit.

"I know it is there," Christian answered back. Their voices were lowered to the point that no one else could hear them in the cafeteria. "Do you always put it up or should I take it as a mark of aggression?"

"Either or," Ohno answered back. "It doesn't really matter to me." Suddenly another color was called, and Ohno found himself stretched sharply before suddenly feeling his muscles twitch. Finally deciding to give it up completely, Ohno released all the tension in his legs and simply resorted to a very obscure hand stand right then and there on the mat. Christian said nothing but still had all hands and feet on the mat.

"And it looks like I won..." Christian mused. "Since you don't have your feet on the designated spots."

"Indeed..." Ohno half laughed. "But it was a fun game." With that, the red haired man did a half cartwheel and ended back up on his feet. "Dang my muscles are tesne hah..We should play Super Twister next time... Alright kids let's go!" he grinned motioning to the mat. "You're all up next!"
