In a fight, they're lethal…
Saeki watches amazed at Hinami-san's and Ayato's movements. After the auction raid, he had the opportunities to see many of their moments- some endearing, some friendly, some objective, some quick and bloody, and some of those rare moments were a mix of all of them.
"Torso! Duck!" Torso ducked and quickly punctured a dove's stomach. Out of the corner of his eyes he saw Ayato's Ukaku wrap around his arm chopping off the dove's heads like they were butter as Hinami-san's Rinkaku hurtled past his face. He felt his cheek lightly cut by the action as he continued on with his battle all while observing his superior and Hinami-san.
They were amazing. They were completely in sync with each other. He noted that the only way they conversed in battle was through small glances and grunts through the lashes and on slaughter of crystallized Ukaku feathers. It was like they were a pair of dancers finishing their routine, both sweaty and exhausted, but completely lethal as beheaded corpses lay in their wake.
Around each other, they melt…
"Are you okay?" There was a tenderness in his words as he brushed his fingers across her cheek wiping away the small droplets of blood along with him. Hinami in front of the indigo haired adult nodded with a shy smile. "Thank you, Ayato."
Ayato huffed, "It's was nothing. Be careful next time."
"Says the person head first into the brawl."
Within that short moment Saeki's fingers ached for an Immortal camera, the urge to capture that moment was really intense, the duo in front of him didn't display many intimate moments around others. Thus the moment right in front of his eyes, was one of the rarest.
Apart of him longed for that intimate connection. Apart of him yearned for the feel of a person's warmth. Apart of him searched for the hidden secrets of their scars. That was a conflicted part of him that he accepted and acted upon. Call him a beast, but he was just as lonely as any other person- human or ghoul on this earth.
"Saeki. You okay?" The brunette inquired beside her dance partner as the said man gave a simple nod.
"Let's go. There'll be more coming." Ayato ordered as the duo followed right behind him.
