Tsj, was the only sound he could make as he used the chair in front of him as a seat for his feet. Now seriously he was doing business with each and everyone as long as he was sure he could trust them and they gave him money. He had categories of what he did sell to one specific customer and what he didn't, that's why he liked to hang out with the customers before actually selling, apart from that, he kept this a secret to his best friend or well, it was maybe tricky to call them still best friends but Takeo was a businessman, he had no time to make other friends and he technically didn't even want to try, so he was here, with the one man Tokyo should be afraid of. He did not need the genius next to him for that. Takeo was slightly grumpy with how this business, this auction was bringing him out and that he might get into trouble, what would the tabloids say, he just needed to know what the competition was up to, he might be able to sell that information to the government, who was using most of his weapons and other items he made. "It's like they stole my idea and use it against me. I can feel it in my wallet." His wallet seriously had nothing to complain about but Takeo was a moneymaker for sure, it was the most important thing that mattered, he could buy everything to avoid his headaches and to continue making things to empty his mind, to avoid headaches. But now he was simply waiting for one of the auctions to start. "Why do you think they always bring out the big guns in the end." The words big guns were now more a metaphor of what he meant because he had absolutely no interest in the weapons they brought out, they were not that special but he had seen the words and interaction from that woman before, he had his own sort of spies and informants everywhere, he normally did not even go out to issues like this, man his head was giving him a hard time to sit still and he tapped his fingers on his own jaw, while balancing his elbow on his other arm who was crossed in front of his chest. Well it would only take more time, Takeo wasn't even sure if he wanted to be here for that, maybe he send an assistant or so. There was a reason he hired pretty young girls. Definitely not for himself, it was not on his lists of interesting things. |

"Well well look who we have here. You didn't come all this way just to see little old me did you?"
A man's voice sounded from behind Takeo as Thundershock walked by the booth he originally stationed himself in. He did want to get a more personal look of the items, but what he found instead was an old time friend... a friend who didn't normally present himself at such shady affairs as this. This wasn't his scene, and frankly dangerous for him, so Thunder was careful not to raise his voice to draw any extra attention to himself.
Instead, Thundershock shifted the chair next to Takeo, spun it around and sat down with his arms leaning against the back of the seat.
"Long time old timer. I didn't think this kind of thing interested you. Can't you just make pretty much anything they're showing off?"
Thundershock asked his casually, a genuine smile on his face as he looked at his friend, more than he would look at the auction itself. He already knew what he wanted, the rest of these trinkets were nothing more than toys to be played with. Toys he could procure from the plutocracy any time after this auction anyways. It was mostly courtesy, his being here, and partially curiosity at this M.A.R.I.N.E drug that they were so proud of...

Takeo had at first no idea that someone was talking to him but soon enough he recognized a voice he would never forget. Which made him look up to the blonde he had not seen in well a while, "I have to do something if you do not call me back." He said with a tease. It was a joke that he found rather fitting considering the man himself and well Takeo's disinterest in that sort of things. He turned to his friend and noticed how casually Takumi took the chair and went to sit down, even turning it around. The thing is that Takeo had no idea if he was in danger or such thing because he simply couldn't care less, he would be too quick in thinking, but in case some police showed up he would have to be out of here before you could say... hm Thundershock. That was a good word. The thing is that he needed to know what all was here.
"That is exactly why it does interest lil old me." The business man spoke when his former best friend or maybe still he didn't know and didn't consider asked about the reason why he was here. "You see I have these plans, I have these items anything really, I just decide not to sell it to each and everyone because I try to keep my business going. This guy whatever his name is, Pluto or something, yes well he keeps stealing my industry. I mean I keep having enough money because the government keeps kissing my ass but that doesn't mean I do accept competition. I am also rather curious in what this shit is that makes it so highly special for people to come here and I can't actually wait to get my hands on it. I mean the Government would not be happy with me but I rather ask forgiveness than permission." And they might be very happy if he got his hands on this M.A.R.I.N.E shit or whatever it was, he found the name quite funny but he wanted to know what it meant, what formula was used and so on. It annoyed him like hell for the thousand ideas that keep soaring in his mind. But he had managed to suppress the headache by simply thinking and as no one was interacting with him before, that had been rather easy.
"So you see how frustrating it is."
He also wouldn't be surprised if he was in danger, his face with every new process and progress would be in the paper, so maybe Pluto just let him in to toy with him later, he would see.

"Completely"
Thunder answered whenever Takeo mentioned how he could see how frustrating his situation was. Of course he could, hell these fuckers were apparently pawning around his drug... or well his failed drug. If they were able to refine it he needed to get his hands on it and see exactly what it could do. Although, it was weird that this thing came out of Semper Fi, where they were so anti quirkers it hurt. There was a link he was missing, and he was determined to find it. For now however, he had a little reunion to attend to with the man beside him.
"You know, your tech would be put to much better use with me right? Fuck the government, they're just going to use it to put quirkers down and would know how to push you and your tech to the limit. You really should consider having a contract with me on the side, I promise I won't tell a soul."
Thunder smirked at his friend much in the same way he did in the old days. He missed having Takeo around, and not only for his quirk. He missed his company, his loyalty and his actual friendship. Friends wasn't something thundershock COULD actually have in his position, so finding Takeo again was a strange blessing.

Of course Takumi understood him, there was no moment actually that Takeo did doubt that. They were so close and they thought almost in the same lines and he looked at his friend with a frown on his face. Yes well almost, Takeo could never do what Takumi did, he did not want to think about it either. His brain would maybe explode with all the options, facades, lies and so on he would have to come up with and to remember. Now that last part certainly wasn't an issue.
He sighed and was't sure what to answer to his friend but he gave an affirmed nod. "I know." But he also agreed in a way with fucking the government, he just didn't want blood on his hand. "But you also know I can't agree with everything you do." He looked at Takumi, "Why do you do it? I mean there must be some good reasons behind it to just attack a hospital." He might even consider working together, that would be a hell of a fantastic adventure in things he could make that Thunder needed but he could not deny that the number one villain was sitting next to him, his best friend who had to worry about a pregnancy when they were both still in high school. He didn't want to think about it too be honest, that was another big difference between them. He wanted to convince himself that Takumi had a good reason for why he did what he did because the businessman would maybe even consider. He could pretend to be a quirkless easily, he was just a genius in the eyes of the government but people closer to him knew better.
He liked the smile on his friend's face, it was like old time sake. "It sounds very tempting, I won't deny that." And he was sure he could find a way for illegal construction and illegal shipping but what would his friend need, "I should feel humble you want me of all people." He eyed his friend from the corner of his eyes while turning his attention to the auction. Not interesting enough. He crossed his arms and turned his face to the side to look at Takumi. But he really wanted to have an answer to why, why would he want to be interested, why would he not want to avoid the blood on his hands. Why did Thunder get all the blood on his hands?

"You don't have to agree with it"
Thunder stated flatly as his attention returned to what was going on ahead of him. That wasn't to say he was ignoring Takeo, far from it. In fact he was mulling over what to tell him in regards to the whole incident at the Hospital. Honestly there hadn't been much motive beyond him being bored and hating those too weak to help themselves. He also loved the rush of fighting the number one hero of the time and driving her body through that metal pike. He'd definitely changed over the years, and his psyche had definitely suffered.
"Do you want the honest answer, or the one the media is spinning?"
He would ask, leaning his head into one of his palms, returning his attention fully to Takeo once more.
"I hate weakness, of any sort. Those in that hospital were the weakest of them. Sure you can heal them and send them back out into society but at what cost? Thousands of yen, sometimes years of recovery before any of them can become functional parts of society again. I had time on my hands and a boredom to fight, so I decided to purge the weak myself. It brought the number one hero to me and gave me further opportunity to show the world how weak a 'Hero' guided society is. What the government are trying to do with quirkers is stupid... give them licenses to use their quirks, call then Heros then stab them in the back. Increase their taxes, treat them like the plague and try to exterminate them all at the same time.
The government are nothing but thieves and murderers themselves, so why should they expect any of us to act any differently?"
He explained with the slightest shrug of his shoulders. You could tell he was passionate about the subject, very very pro Quirker to the point he would kill anyone without a quirk, he would kill anyone that proved too weak to positively contribute to a pro quirk world.

No he didn't have to agree with it, he knew that as well as everyone else in this room but the thing was that it really depended on what Takumi wanted him to make and deliver if he would be okay with that delivery or whatever it was that was going on and he simply sighed, let the air out of his nose a little forceful and simply staring at the auction in front of them but he did not say anything to the comment of his former friend. He still wasn't sure what it was, maybe he was lucky that his friend considered him a friend. Especially with his own explanation that followed and meeting his friend's eyes when he asked for the answers about the Hospital incident, that was the only attack he couldn't put his thoughts behind. The rest seemed to make sense after all he knew about Takumi from their childhood together but he was just so unsure about that.
"If I wanted the media one, I would have bought the station's broadcast." He said simple with a smile on his face, "I want your statement." Which was in this case the honest answer. His mind already racing, giving him eleven scenarios. Someone in there, multiple versions in that, either someone for revenge, either some idiot from his company with vengeance, anything really. To make a statement. Being bored and so 8 other options that went through his mind. Not completely into detail, it was good for Takeo that his friend spoke up before the plans could unfold in his mind because the headache would certainly follow. Never had he had such thrilling conversations that it happened, the world was surely more dull than Takumi.
He averted his eyes but he was clearly listening to the man who had his full attention onto him, which was why Takeo didn't look him directly into his eyes. He had to keep his face neutral, his expression stoic. Show interest of listening, so he nodded some time and so on. He didn't agree, but like they said before they did not have to agree. He swallowed, purge that was kind of extreme. He knew his friend hated the weak, the quirkless, the whiners anything in their previous class but he could play quirkless the easiest, he wasn't made for fighting, he used his charm to get what he wanted and he shortly wondered if that meant he was in the category of weak or if he was only saved because of his quick wit.
"Well I can't say that I always agree with the government's way either." The fucking quirk tax, who thought that was a good idea and he was going to campaign against it, maybe he could do that with that woman eh what was her name. Oh his assistant would know. She would probably call him later anyway, he turned to Takumi, "I still don't really get what I could do for you, I thought you already had everything you needed."
