i’m just hope

Unconditional: Not subject to any conditions or limitations; absolute and without restrictions, often used to describe love or support that is given without expectation or requirement.

It doesn't mean he cares, though. Caring would mean he'd be more engaged. Because even as he agreed to her world-ending mission, his expressions remained dull.

What he is interested in is the potential fun this might be. It'd give him a chance to flex or grease some old muscles again when it comes to espionage. Hopefully, which is what she'll keep him on. He wouldn't mind kicking a few faces, but alas, he can't get too involved. Xavier would kill him before any otherworldly force if he got too mixed up. It's just... fun games– for now.

" Ah, so you're a prophet of sorts. " Airin leans back, kicking a heel up to prop it on the table. " Well, good thing I'm not into all those wishy-washy predictions. I'd rather feel like... I'm in control of that. " His voice trails off, and his gaze flicks away in thought. After a sigh, he gives her a playful sneer. " Especially if you have nothin' good to predict. "

               PROPHET SOUNDED SO FANCY. like she served some important role in a dignified society... given her history, hope preferred to avoid any sorts of organized institution. it unnerved her to think about the ways the mind could be warped by a hierarchical group following an aligned goal. it wasn't ALWAYS a bad thing, of course, but she preferred to tread with caution around such. the underground had been a bit chaotic, and perhaps it was the tattered structure that had given her ease. she had been the l e a d e r, but she hadn't necessarily considered herself the only voice.

         though that was starting to get into complexities within a viewpoint. governments and all that... it was all fickle, and in the end all the blue haired cared about was doing the right thing. what that was exactly shifted with reality, with people, with circumstances. right then, the thing to do was stop the demon influx and figure out what had become of the zero point shard...

             "heh... i have extremely mixed feelings about the whole future stuff." she wished that they were more controllable... she wished that they weren't so v a g u e. in the end, hope found gratitude for any semblance of a warning, and some things had certainly been guiding points for the next steps needed in a plan. would have been nice to get a happy view every so often-

JUST A GIRL WITH SOME SPRAY CANS.

independent. private. selective. hope from epic games' fortnite. no game interest or knowledge required, extremely crossover friendly. by kylie. 30+ years old.

Yellow hues stayed onto her, as he kept silent for a few beats. Oh, why not? No doubt they'd end up following him here because of the Light he harbored within him - of his weapon, his keyblade. "Close enough - but you will no doubt see what I mean, eventually,'' he replied cryptically. He shook his head. "Be on guard. You will never know what is around the corner... Once healed, I should be more than fine." Oh, she has seen his stubbornness at the very least - just not of his great power that laid underneath the surface.

"Where Light will be, they will be to try to consume it."

He then fell silent, realizing he had given, already, too much information about such creatures - the Heartless. The opposite to what Hearts were within people. He glanced over, spotting the small being, drinking in its appearance. No words sprung from him, only holding out a hand as he'd receive the ssprite's energy. Keeping open to the experience.

Eyes slid closed - as the energy seeped into him, going through every layer of his being. It felt nourishing, and the injury sustained in his side started to feel even less achy. His mana sprung back to life, its reserves being more readily on tap.

''Aaahh..."

A hand held out, as he let a wispy ball of darkness come to existence within his palm. Refreshing - as he also carefully stretched his body. The keyblade's magick could have done just as well - but it often depended on ranks of magick and how bad the injury was. The little ball disappeared, and he smirked.

                      darkness that might be coming from more than just the demons now. her mind took in his comments, weighing them and folding them in her thoughts. he had deemed her inquiry as close enough - these new foes weren't exactly, but would behave with similar goals. destruction, fear... it didn't matter the source, such emotions and states were debilitating.

         the island had not been prepared.

                           "consume it..." reflected words in a tone etched with concern. brows would furrow deeper on her expression, lost in the swirls of comprehension. hope couldn't claim to know w h a t he was speaking of exactly; there were things she might never understand between all the worlds. yet, she premise was enough to stiffen her spine.

             at least her focus could shift to relief as he seemed to come to fully from the wound. the sprite had accomplished its task, and the water soon faded. little being offered a gurgle of mirth before it was back on its path to catch up to friends. blue haired would supervise it only for a heartbeat or so before the magic the elder displayed would draw her attention to him. storm hues were widened with intrigue, though also a display of CAREFULNESS. she truly didn't know who she had helped, and it occurred to hope just then that that might not play in her best interests. still, she quelled the questioning in her mind to replace with curiosity.

  With a shake of her head, she regards Hope with a flicker of awe within her eyes. ❝Studying, yes. Nothing else. But I would give so much to meet such an amazing Pokemon. Uh, just under better circumstances, I suppose...❞ Jade didn't mean to come off wrong there, considering what the other girl was being put through by that same Pokemon.

  But was the Almighty Sinnoh capable of such acts for something so human such as revenge? Jade had to wonder, and she would mull over it probably for awhile. But right now, there was a bigger issue to handle.

                      which, okay... she w a s a bit dependent on technology she no longer had access to so that wasn't to her liking. at least she had found someone to help her out... and whom believed her. that was a safety net.
