Vincent had spoken up trying to grab Tsukikos attention and was met with the most obvious response considering how she acted. Anyother day he would of just shrugged it off, maybe respond with a harsh quip or two. Today however he felt drained after having to carry someone to a infirmary and being laughed at. So he decided to respond to the stupid girls pessimistic comments with some reassuring optimism straight from his own view. [color=a36209]"I was looking for a duel, had concerns over the safety of my own classmates."[/color] Vincent began but soon gave up on trying to skirt the question due to the stare he was getting. [color=a36209]"Yet before that it seems like you have some Issues that might need addressing, so I might as well start with those things first."[/color] Vincent began as he rubbed his cheek with the palm of his hand to try and stimulate his brain into figuring what to say. He wanted a fight no more then anything, yet Ruki warned to keep the violence down a notch. 

[color=a36209]"so lets begin with saying this, you are going to hear me out and not interrupt me while I am talking."[/color] Vincent said as his eyes seemed to offer some pity to the girl before him. [color=a36209]"So the fact I am not ignoring you is simple as you basically said it yourself, You got spirited away like Me and Leander. Its only normal to see if said person was injured or learned anything. So your wrong Tsukiko I was going to check on you later but I stumbled upon you now by chance."[/color] Vincent said obviously discontented and ticked off with the girls pessimism. [color=a36209]"So lets get to the biggest issue at hand. you. Tsukiko your thought process is down right stupid and your logic is too pessimistic tainted to make any sense."[/color] Vincent uttered removing the main point he wanted to get across. He wasn't going to lie though, that felt kinda good to be truthful to someone even though it was a little harsh.

Vincents brown eyes finally set themselves on Tsukiko's face as if they finally could stand looking at her for more then 5 seconds. [color=a36209]"Now stop talking about this bloody darkness, At the end of the day somebody you know or care about would stick out their left arm and pull you out of it, So stop forcing yourself down this descent. I just had to carry a guy whom fought the woman from earlier and I don't want to have to carry you but hell I'll do it if I pity you then as I pity you now."[/color] Vincent sighed heavily as he remembered how hard carrying Leander was as he continued his rebuttal of her comments. [color=a36209]"Again if you never open yourself up to the concept of friends because you fear betrayal then eventually you will be betrayed because you pushed them all away, so a word of advice. I came to this school to this tower, to not only learn more about a card game I love but also to meet amazing people and make friends. Even without friends you can still believe in yourself and maybe if you believe hard enough in the concept of the heart of the cards, that your deck believes in you too. I took my own title not just because I thought it sounded cool but to show that I believed I could make it. Look at me I get overzealous over a card game. Doesn't mean I would wish death upon my enemies, guess you could say that how I cope with my own doubt and I grew to love that part of myself because I grow more determined though also a little more -"[/color] Vincent stopped before he finished the last word, noticing he was being a little too lax with his own personal history to the girl. [color=a36209]"So anyhow enough about me and my drivel about what you should and shouldn't do, I am just a guy who [b][u][i]Loves[/i][/u][/b] to fight, so what do I know, so lets get back to my original intention of finding people. Tsukiko I challenge you to a duel"[/color] Vincent finished as he sighed once again a weight off his chest, It felt good to be free of having to ignore the problems around him. He didn't care if Tsukiko hated him after that but it was worth saying and he could finally bare to look at her without some disgust in his eyes.
