☯ send in “ caught “ for the sender to catch the receiver in their arms, after the receiver collapses in the aftermath of using their powers for an extensive period of time ☯

"Hee — "

"— looks like your coming to my rescue again, hey bud?"

It was almost amusing now how many times his student had come to help him out in the most dire of situations. Shouldn't it be the other way around? Well, not that he was complaining — MK was a good kid after all. He had chosen a good student, better than he deserved at time.

Doing his best to not be deadweight as the kid held him up, his feet shaking. It had been eons since he used that much power — he was sadly out of practice. Many years without a big threat would do that after all. It was just a shame they all seemed to be coming out of the woodworks as soon as he chose his successor. Poor MK.

"I'll be good in a moment, just...catching my breath."

✧ @void-multimuse ✧ — ( ↪     𝐉𝐔𝐒𝐓 𝐎𝐍𝐄 , 𝑰'𝑴 𝑨 𝑭𝑬𝑾 - ᶰᵒ ᶠᵃᵐᶤˡʸ ˒ ᵗᵒᵒ . 𝑤ℎ𝑜 𝑎𝑚 𝑖? ) sorry , i've got ... i've got a lot of work to do . [From NG!MK ^^]

"Oh, I won't keep you long."

It would be foolish if he wasn't aware of what went on in the city, didn't matter that he rarely venture into it. Preferring to keep hidden away in his hideout and away from the suffering — it helped ease his mind, if only a little bit. He didn't want to see the horrors that had come to pass. Having witnessed it enough in his opinion, bleeding over and over for a world that kept marching towards destruction. He hated that he ignored it BUT it had destroyed not just him but someone close to him. Turning away from it like that man had to save what little of himself was left now, so what if it was selfish?

He was definitely curious about this young man. Enough to keep a watchful eye on his whereabouts and activities. Smuggling water and other supplies was not something that was uncommon — a few struggling to help those ailing from hardship. You would be stupid not to know about it. Having turned down several who had tried to use him like an enforcer to shutdown such affairs when it effected them. Sure, he was no saint by any means and the jobs he did take were not for the faint of heart BUT even he wasn't about to get involved in such things. Let them fuck with those in charge, he would neither help nor hinder either side.

"Just a small word of caution — "

" — you better be prepared for the hardships that come with messing around with those who are in charge, you might be young BUT they will not care nor will it stop them. You AND your friend will not receive any mercy."

Almost disturbingly quick his wrist flicks and the little metal conductor's wand he carried around flies over and past the young man's shoulder. Piercing straight through the forehead of a large hulking monster of a yaoguai behind him — the being falling backwards and into a heap. The metal rod floating back into his hands before the masked monkey stands, stretching out his arms and scratching his neck with it.

☯ GRUMPY AFFECTIONATE STARTERS ☯

"Oh, worried I'm up to something~?"

His grin only spreading more at the shadow's words, mischief bubbling just below the surface. Honestly, it was cute that a simple smile was the cause of such reaction from his fellow celestial monkey. Only stirring him to see how much he could tease him now in response — what buttons he could push to get even more out of him.

The sage began leaning closer, invading Macaque's personal bubble JUST enough. Though he was mindful for now not to get too close or touch him — he wanted to tease him sure, but there was still those personal boundaries he kept in mind for now. Their relationship was still very rocky right now and he didn't want to do anything to push that divide that was already there.

"I'm not allowed to smile now~?"

MK wants a cuddle from his shady lesser mentor

☯ 𝓓𝓮𝓵𝓲𝓿𝓮𝓻𝔂 — send 🥡 for our muses to enjoy take-out together. ☯

"Well well well, if it isn't my favorite delivery boy."

Peeling himself out of the young man's shadows without much effort, a soft mirth leaving him as he spoke. Only adding to his amusement at the light startling jolt that briefly overtook the other. Hee, that would never get old to him — startling MK would always be amusing to him, unintentionally or not.

His shadows working quick to relief him of one of the take-out bags. Only sparing a quick glance inside to make sure everything was there, not that he had any doubts. That boar was thorough in making sure the order was to the letter — even ones that were overly complex and insane. Luckily, the six-eared simian's taste were simple enough and he never ordered anything too complex from the noodle shop.

"Why don't you take a load off for a moment? Join me for lunch?"

"You look like you got something on your mind, I'm all ears kiddo."
