[color=9966CC]”Badass…”[/color]

The witch let out a sigh as she stared at the collapsing gate. It wasn’t too often that she could let loose like that. There was always collateral damage to be worried about, even when she was doing her thing in places that technically weren’t her problem.

She continued to stare for a moment before reaching for her bandolier. Bottles were somewhat carelessly tossed overboard towards remnant yokai until only one remained on her person.

“Well, I’m sure cleaning up the rest should be pretty easy,” Jasmine said with a shrug. “If any of you need anything, I’m not too hard to find.” She promptly leapt off the side of the ship, a pair of ebony wings holding her aloft. She soared her way back towards dry land, only stopping when she noticed that she had caught the attention of the seafaring magical girl.

[color=9966CC]”Miss Hellfire, huh?”[/color] Jasmine shrugged. [color=9966CC]”Well, it’s certainly no biggie. Just watch my back for a couple seconds.”[/color] She concentrated, weaving one hand around the other as motes of hellfire began to appear, condensing into a searing light that continued to intensify before being contained in an inky blackness in the shape of a bottle, which quickly solidified.

She promptly hucked the bottle straight into the pile of viscera.

[color=9966CC]”Usually I try to keep a nice stock,”[/color] The witch explained, already reaching for a quick snack among the burning pile. [color=9966CC]”But’cha can only make so many on short notice.”[/color] She reached for her phone and scrolled through her notifications, already acting as if Atheni was gone. Lots of barely-disguised targeted content and social media updates she honestly didn’t really give a shit about… and a message from Zen.

There was a momentary pause. The silent yet unmistakable sound of gears turning in one’s head.

[color=9966CC][b]”Goddamnit, that was him!”[/b][/color]

She slammed her free palm against her forehead and let out an exasperated groan. The sound of particularly annoyed typing filled the air.

[quote][b][color=9966CC]Shit, I just ran into him on the ship without realizing it. Guess I can’t think when I’m hungry.[/color][/b][/quote]

There was another pause, then a sudden addendum.

[quote][b][color=9966CC]It’s nice that he seems alright, at least. I’ll still be keeping an eye out.[/color][/b][/quote]

She shoved the phone back in her pocket. There wasn’t anything here worth sticking around for, anymore. Back to the cart and the usual route.
