Who: Open.
What: Shadow Encounter.
Where: Noodle Alley.
When: Tuesday, after school.
Why: He fell down the rabbit hole.

Noodle Alley was a street of flavoursome cuisene. Oubai Kouchisei was sitting in the one of the diners. His arms were crossed in contemplation. These weren't restaurants, he'd used to think; they were troughs, places that served food he wouldn't have recognised as proper.

However, he was here.

He was eating a broth that combined thick, curly noodles, miso and oily fish. It had a robust, tangy flavour and included leeks, onions and white pepper, with a topping of sweetcorn and butter. On the counter was a ceramic cup of tea. He thought it was a little like green tea but lighter in taste.

"If you're willing to bother to get me a refill," he said over the counter to the chef, "I've got the money."

Standing up, Kou looked down at Reizo. He knew it could be seen as a challenge, but he'd learned adults weren't scared. Intelligence was superior to strength, because a small army could hold off a siege force with the right technology - which would've needed intelligence to design. Intelligence. Strategy. How could this hot-tempered imbeciele have either?

He looked at him a bit more curiously and then reached down, picking up his bag and slinging it over his shoulder. He turned to the counter and handed his money to the chef.

"... The noise put me off my food. Disappointing. I'm just going to go elsewhere for more intelligent conversation."

He then attempted to leave.

He narrowed his eyes, watching the older boy go. He felt the strange urge to call out to him, taunt him some more. Maybe ask why he’d suddenly grown a pair. Instead, he turned back to the ramen and grinned at the chef, jerking his head in the direction Kouchisei had just left in.

“He said to put it on his tab. What a pal, huh?”

He frowned afterwards. That encounter, while a great display of just what a badass Reizo was, if he did say so himself, just didn’t sit right to him. The more and more he thought about it, the stranger it was, and the more he wanted to go find the little snot and beat the attitude out of him, well, after getting why it was there anyway.

He pushed away from the now-cold noodles he’d been picking at and stalked off in the opposite direction. Probably not a good idea to haul off and get assault charges pressed on him. He’d go find some thugs from another school and take his frustration out on them.
