Day 209 ✝ Action
✝ Action with Spencer Reid
Derek smiled brightly when he saw Reid walk into the athletic complex almost right on time to when they’d agreed to meet. He’d almost expected him to find an excuse not to show since this wasn’t really Reid’s thing, so he was really more than happy that he did. He’d wanted some time with his friend to see how he was really doing and this was as good excuse as any without being overly obvious that he was checking up on him. Reid could really just be happy that Derek wasn’t busting down his door again and pushing his way in. Improvement? Yes. Never let it be said that Derek couldn’t grow and change… kind of.

He stood up from the chair he’d been sitting in and picked up his bag. He’d already claimed a room to work in, like he usually did. One hand clapped down on Reid’s shoulder and squeezed. “Hey pretty boy. Almost thought you might not show.”

✝ Action with Rogue
For weeks now Derek and Rogue had been working privately with each other. It was actually working with her that had made him think about giving more lessons in self-defense… maybe even starting a class. But it was still just an idea he was toying with more than one he was actually putting into motion. Not that he would turn down anyone who wanted to learn or spar. He just wasn’t advertising it yet.

He was in his normal room that he occupied with a nice mat on a part of the floor. When Rogue came in, he smiled in her direction. “Hey, pretty girl. Doin’ alright? You get caught up in that mess yesterday?”

✝ Open Action for anyone and everyone
For the better part of the morning Derek will be at the Athletic Complex in Sector one. He’ll probably break for lunch and then head into the Defense Force Headquarters in Sector Two for a bit to do some work. Anyone is free to run into him in either place or in the in-between.

	Italy... a-and Japan. My family used to go between Italy and Japan all the time when I was little, and I've got family in both places, so even after they died, I still bounced between the two a lot. I haven't been to Italy in a while though. I've been going to school in Japan the past couple years... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	World traveler, huh? [Brief teasing before his features darkened just a bit.] How'd they die? Your family, I mean. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He was quiet for a moment, looking at the fish on his lap before letting out a little sigh.]

Someone came into our house at night. I don't remember it well I was little, it was pretty late I think. I got hit in the head too, but I was the only one that made it. He probably thought I was dead.

[A little disjointed, but it was difficult to try and word out "I watched my family get slaughtered" while also trying to avoid the topic of the mafia.]

[Derek's brow furrows, his arm instinctively going around Enma's shoulders, a one armed hug that presses him into his side.]

I'm sorry kid. No one should have to go through that, much less a small child. And I know all the sorry's in the world don't make it any better.

[He paused.] I watched my dad get killed too. And I was old enough to remember it. Ten. But I know how it's a hard thing to ever make better.

[He tensed up at first, this was the first time he had made a close enough friend outside of the family for such a gesture. Still, as tense as he was he leaned into it, accepting the gesture. It was nice, he could pretend things would be safe... just for a little while anyway.

He let out a little sigh, and looked up from his spot pressed into Derek's side.]

Did they get whoever did it?

Nah, never did. Not that I know of. He could've committed another crime and been arrested for it. But no one was ever convicted for my dad's death.

[He's glad that Enma isn't pulling away. For a moment he'd been afraid that he might. But Derek wants to hug him and hold on for a bit to show him that someone gives a crap about him and where he's been and where he's going.] They ever catch whoever killed your family?

... I'm sorry... but, maybe it's better like that...

[That probably didn't make much sense if he didn't explain the reasoning. People always seemed to think that knowing who did it brought "closure" or something asinine like that.]

I know who did it... I saw him that night. His name's Iemitsu Sawada. It was a big mess. Someone used my dad's old artifacts to start some trouble, when they started investigating my family someone killed a bunch of people that man worked with. There was an investigation by his boss, but it was just dismissed. He's still got the same job and everything.

I hate them...
