[Liethell]

"Hm? My scar?" He runs his hand over his chest, he begins to smile again. "It was deadly. It was an electricity wound. Someone else had electrical powers. My heart would've stopped if it had not been for timely intervention and another healer like me." He rubs his chest softly as he talks, remembering the pain.
"I did learn to work around it. I like to think it made my powers even better. It was hard though, I was mostly alone. Not that my friends didn't help, they just couldn't. They didn't know any better, but I know what you're going through, and I don't think you should have to face it alone." He leans in and kisses his cheek one more time.

[Yokuutsu]

At the mention of the electricity, Vincent takes his arm away and shoves his hands in his pockets. It makes him feel kind of guilty, even though he didn't do that to Liethell...he can still remember the times he has shocked people and all. It just makes him feel horrible...though he knows that isn't the others intention.

He kind of squeaks and blushes a bit at the kiss. He was thinking of what to say back, but that train of thought just stopped on him. "No one should have to go throught something like that alone." He says softly, once his brain starts working again.

[Liethell]

"Precisely." He beams and rubs his back. He only lets him go as he walks into the fast food place, so he can dig in his bag for his wallet. It has a knock off of Hello Kitty on it. "Is there anything you want in particular Vincent?"

[Yokuutsu]

Vincent leans into the touch a bit without realizing it. He chuckles a bit, smiling, when he sees the Hello Kitty knock off. Guys like My Little Pony, so he isn't knocking it...he just thinks it's kind of cute....and fits Liethell a bit from what he's seen so far. He just shakes his head a bit. "No....I'll eat about anything really." Unless it looks like it's trying to kill him.

[Liethell]

"Suit yourself. Wait here a moment, I'll just be getting us some food." He rubs his shoulder and stands off in line. If it weren't for his obnoxiously long hair and the strange, soothing feeling he emits, he'd blend in here...

He returns with a bag and hands him something that might've resembled an egg sandwich. "They say egg is good for you." He tries to offer him a smile, as if justifying his choice. He pulls out another sandwich dripping with grease. It definitely does not have any eggs in it. He takes a hearty bite out of it as he walks them both away, back outside.

[Yokuutsu]

"Alright." Vincent says, watching him and the other people. He feels an urge to protect him should the need arise though he doesn't know why to tell the truth. He doesn't think that'll happen, but just in case it does and all.

He laughs a bit when he sees what Liethell is eating. "That was the most hypocritical sentence I've heard in awhile." But he thinks it's funny personally. He just starts munching on his sandwich, walking with him. Liethell's sandwich looks kind of nasty to him-it is one of those sandwiches that looks like it is trying to kill him and all.

[Liethell]

"Hey," He laughs and nudges Vincent, "It won't kill me. Hardly anything does. I meant to show you that sometime." He beams and leads the way. "We've got a car waiting for us way out on the edge of the city. It's to keep rumor from spreading and I become the next Jesus Christ Superstar or something like that. It's a miracle the boss even lets me do this.." He smiles, as if he knows exactly why the boss lets him do that. "We're a few hours away, so you'll be in for a bit of a road trip. Maybe we can stop by some abandoned building and we can try and tease your powers out real quick?"

[Yokuutsu]

Vincent rolls his eyes a bit. "Ever heard of leading by example?" He's still smiling a bit though. He means for it to be a joke really. "How big is this?" He's talking about the magical world and all. "What do you mean?" He asks when he mentions the boss and that he's lucky that he can do this and all. He doesn't seem too happy about the idea of his powers and all. "Usually bad things happen." He kind of mumbles, not wanting to think of those times.

[Liethell]

"Yeah, well, I'm teaching you what not to do then." He grins and takes another bite out of the gross looking thing that they call a sandwich.

"And if you're asking how big the magical crime scene is, well." He thumbs his chin, "There are criminal magic users all over the world. I've got contacts over in Russia and a few in China, one guy in South America somewhere. I think magic users probably influence or control the economies of a few smaller nations. You can be sure that you'll find at least one familia or gang or some other system in in most major cities around the world, and you can find smaller groups elsewhere. Now, not every magic user resorts to crime." He takes another bite, and he continues to talk with his mouth full. "But it winds up being pretty easy to fall into it, since that's were all the big kids are, and you'll never find a better support system than here. We can cover up stories about magic users, make people vanish completely, bust users out of jail. We can hide things nobody else can hide. We keep secrets and we're pretty good at it. Not to mention, we offer a lot of power, more so than any average gang. That lures people." Finally, he swallows and quits talking with his mouth full. He throws his arm over Vincent's shoulder again.

"I'm not going to say we're all best friends here in the underbelly of the world. Most of us are criminals. Pirates, murderers, hookers, thieves, hitmen, drug dealers and users, we've got a group of cyber hackers somewhere--you name it, we probably have it. We all share a common bond and common goal, to stay hidden.

"If you're asking about my boss, I think he has some reign over most the mideast of the United States and he's encroaching on the south, but we're not going anywhere near Mexico. That's Lady Death's territory and boy is she hell." His brows crinkle up as he thinks and thinks hard about something. "I think we're in cahoots with some guys in Canada and I think Australia. Might've been Austria, I forget. But my boss is pretty big. Padrino Fransisco is a ruthless man. I don't think you'll be meeting him, fortunately."

[Yokuutsu]

Vincent just shakes his head as Liethell eats on his sandwich. Seeing that sandwich makes his stomach upset a bit. Good thing he's too hungry to care right now. He just stares at the other as he talks about where he has connections at. "Do you travel that far? That often?" He has to ask. He's never traveled too far in his life, always in this country. He can't help but feel kind of anzious as Liethell talks, and he's not good at hiding it. He doesn't want to be into crime or anything...but he doesn't want to shock someone and they be serverely hurt or dead either. It is like he doesn't have a choice here. At least not a good one. And the more he talks, the more that anxiety/uneasiness grows though he does try to squish it down.

"Do I want to know?" He asks, thinking about Lady Death and all. Part of him is curious, but not too curious at the moment. Maybe later. "Why there?" He can't help but ask at this point. "Is it bad that I prefer it that way?" That he doesn't meet the guy.

(I meant to mention that maybe he has a small ability, like one normal people would write off as luck/charisma. Just that it would be mroe likely that people would do what he asks/says depending....but it wouldn't be a big difference, just enough so...say...if he hasn't ate in a few days, someone might buy/make/whatever a sandwich or something for him instead of ignoring the hobos like normal or something. I have been meaning to say this for probably over a page now but I kept forgetting D: Don't want my guy too persuasive...though that could be fun in a crack rp XD)

[Liethell]

(Actually, persuasion would be a really clever power to have. I think Liet is old and experienced enough to have some resistance to it, so if you want his persuasion powers amped up, go right on ahead. Just be sure to describe them to me so I know what's happening and when it's happening!)

"Well..yeah, I do." He shrugs and smiles. "I met my partner in Russia. I met a few others there too. I have a lot of students there...and the guys over in China are some good old friends. I think the guy in South America has a crush on me, but he and I used to play poker for a few nights every week..." He listens to him ask more questions, and he cocks his head in confusion.

"Why where? Austria? Haven't a clue. Probably has something to do with the beer. Or do you mean Mexico? Mexico has a lot of magic-using gangs, and they're all subservient to this mean young woman known as Lady Death. Absolutely terrible. You can find videos of actual executions her henchmen carried out online...And no, it's not bad to prefer it that way. Tons of people are scared of Padrino."

[Yokuutsu]

(Well, until he learns about it and how control it, it would be based on need/emotions when it crops up. So far...it's only been when he hasn't eaten for awhile and all that fun stuff)

Vincent tilts his head a bit, thinking about what he means by partner. It can be used so many different things nowadays. "Students? How many?" It's strange to think of it that way, at least for him. He snorts a bit, unable to help it, thinking about that one guy. Considering how Liethell acts....can he really blame the guy?

"Germany has better beer." He can't help but say at that point. "Yeah....no. I don't want to know about or see that." He knows that for sure. Executions aren't something that he enjoys watching to tell the truth. "How long has he been the head?" Curiousity, it never goes away...sometimes it shuts up for safety reasons though.

[Liethell]

"Uh..." He scrunches up his face. How many students did he have again? "I had a lot. I lost track..."

"Germany has better beer, but the gangs there have been pretty unstable lately. Nobody wants to take their chances aligning with them. I think Padrino has been head of the familia for six, seven years almost, but he's been a leader in a bunch of other positions long before that. He's a good leader, all things considered." He finishes his sandwich and licks the rest off his fingers for a while. Tasty...but still pretty gross.

[Yokuutsu]

Vincent snorts at his answer. "I thought that would be something someone should keep up with." He would try to at least. He's still smiling a bit either way.

He frowns a bit at Leithell's words. "Why is it so unstable?" If he can't get along with a person, he's the type to try and get away so there is still peace and all. He just nods a bit. "Yet it's better if I don't meet him?" That sound a bit contradicting to him to tell the truth. He makes a face, unable to help it as the other licks his fingers.

[Liethell]

"It's sad to say, but Germany is struggling with skin-heads lately. We're a mean bunch of people, magic users are, but very few of us are actually going to join forces with a potentially racist group. He's a good leader," He stops a moment to truly think over what's going to come out of his mouth. "He's a good leader, but he's a very grumpy person." He nods, and as he walks, he glances around. They're approaching a more industrial area, and he smiles. "We can find an old warehouse around here to duck into real quick, and then we can see what you're capable of."

[Yokuutsu]

Vincent just sighs, kind of heavily. "For some reason, that doesn't surprise me too much." He's thinking about the past a bit, Nazis and other things. He just nods a bit. "I'd probably be a bit grumpy too..." If he looks scary, it can cause loyalty just because of fear of what he might do...and some people just have that temperment. He can't help but look unhappy at Liethell's words. His entire life, he's tried to avoid any situations that would cause his magic to come out...though he did fail a few times obviously.
