A small moment of recognition, even if he wasn't Kiras devil there was knowledge of him there. That alone seemed to thrill Lucifer, not many knew who he was outside of his own world. How lovely, no need for explanations. This man was amusing, he got along all too well with him. Perhaps they could stick around each other, four eyes was much better than two.

[color=9e0b0f]"Keep in mind, this man seems to be like me- couldn't help but notice the feathers. So if he's an angel as well, I doubt it's it's anyone but himself. My siblings are all huge pains in the ass, but their ego is almost bigger than dear old dads! Luckily I'm not related to that man, but if he's anything like me- or stronger- I wouldn't tempt it."[/color]

He couldn't help but exhale heavily, staring down the fight with worry. He's horrible with his fellow angels, all his siblings hated him and as much of a smooth talker he is- clearly talking wasn't going to work. As curious as Lucifer is, Sephiroth is the last person he's going to talk to. Angelic status would probably mean nothing.

[color=9e0b0f]"Humans have never been the smartest I find... they will stare God in the face and threat him with a broomstick. The balls on them! I can't believe it sometimes, aren't they something? Maybe if we are lucky you can play dumb or useless and go home. I'd offer to help get you home, but I have a feeling my dimensional travel won't work here... it's happened before and I'd be surprised if it was that easy. Don't expect any of this to be a walk in the park, okay? Something fishy is going on and I don't trust any of this.."[/color]

[h1][color=662d91]Yoshikage Kira[/color][/h1]

As Lucifer went on, Yoshikage Kira listened attentively, although his body language did not betray it. He gazed over at the One-Winged Angel and his gaggle of fools with a resigned, almost whimsical expression, eyelids hanging half-closed to demonstrate his disinterest. If the Devil himself claimed to fear the white-haired man, then Kira was of no mind to disagree, but his was a set of skills tailored to work in tandem with the attribute that he had built all his life on. If the whims of fate willed it and the two parties came to blows, Yoshikage Kira could very well die in the fray, of course. But he had in his possession a power unlike any that the One-Winged Angel or the Devil himself did, from the look of things. More than any companion, Kira could always turn to his fortune. If necessary, that was all he needed to rely on, for better or for worse.

A quiet smile crept onto his face for but the blink of an eye. No matter the odds, luck would always side with Yoshikage Kira.

[color=662d91]"Of course,"[/color] Kira began, accompanying the words with a resigned shrug. [color=662d91]"Their battles are theirs alone, I would say. Just as your battles are yours to fight, and mine in turn. Although..."[/color] Kira swept his eyes along the One-Winged Angel's blade, mildly surprised at his capacity to keep it upright despite its frankly gratuitous size. [color=662d91]"If I were to fight, I doubt I would lose to anyone."[/color]

As the conversation flowed further, Kira flowed with it, listening quietly and doing his best to keep the racket of the mewling reprobates on the other side of the cage out of his ears. No walk in the park, of course, but the measure of a man was the trail of adversity he left behind him, and Yoshikage Kira's trail was certainly long enough by its lonesome. He had overcome every obstacle set before him, and did not intend to stop on the account of another, no matter how grand he thought himself.

[color=662d91]"Of course not,"[/color] Kira agreed. [color=662d91]"Although, I'm afraid I'm not a believer. I suppose I should change my ways, now that I've been offered proof?"[/color] Then, Kira hesitated, for just a moment. [color=662d91]"No, I believe it's too late for my soul to be saved now. It's no matter - I never held the Lord in high esteem to begin with."[/color]

Almost on instinct, Kira's fists tightened, one balling tightly in his blazer pocket. [color=662d91]"If there is one thing Yoshikage Kira is [i]not,[/i] it is useless. I'll play along with our little game, for the moment. If nothing else, it stands to be entertaining. All of these fools in one place, who knows the destruction they could cause with nary an eyelid batted? Surely, our cause must be important if it's worth taking such a gratuitous risk..."[/color]
