 Left. Right. Left. Right. The boy was running like his life depended on it, the soles of his sneakers thumping on the concrete of one of the park’s walkways. Harshly, he took a sharp breath, and his legs soon stopped. His muscles were aching, sweat rolled down his form, the cotton of his T-shirt clinging to his physique as his chest constricted and relaxed with every breath. “C’mon, just a few more minutes.” his hands had already found his knees as he hunched over, he had been running as hard as he could for the past hour and the results were well present in his aching calves. This wasn’t a usual morning for Taylor, no, after speaking to Akio in the UA chat about the morality of why he wanted to be a hero he had been pushing himself even harder to get stronger. To get better so to say. It was one thing to want to be a hero, but if they were going to be some of the first they needed to set a bar, they needed to be strong. Today his workout had taken a much more harsh regiment: Sit ups, Push ups, and plenty of juice with a long run on top. It may have sounded basic, but the numbers at which he did these things is what had him buckling now and stressing his body. He had forced himself to do 50 push-ups and 60 sit-ups, as for juice he had been going through a jug since he woke up and the run was supposed to be equivalent to 10 miles, he was just on 5 and already gassed. Taylor took a step forward, an attempt to spur himself on. The push came when he thought of Akio’s words again. “work harder. ” Sadly, the first step would be his last. His legs shook for a moment, they were as light as a feather yet the burning in his thighs read as him pushing it too hard. He took another step. A beat. A third. A beat. The silence with every step was deafening as he felt himself struggle to even stand. The best he could do now was flop onto a bench already occupied by a stranger. “ Pardon me, I just need to...” he wouldn’t say it, rest was for those who didn’t want to push it, “I just need to think for a moment.” his hands had found the knees of his black shorts again. |

Julen was wearing his tank top and shorts showing off his muscular body again which he did often since his physical condition was something he was proud of and liked showing it off. It was his day off since Thunder wanted him to recover from the stab wound given to him during Semper Fi. Julen swore if he ever saw that man again he would instantly take the guy's head. However being in bed and wasting time was something that did not sit well with Julen, actually he outright refused to sit in a bed like a loser. He had gone to the park to do some light exercise, nothing too intense to make sure he wasnt hurting himself. However he did see something rather unusual.
A young man came up to him practically out of breath and seemed like he was about to over heat or pass out from exhaustion... he plopped himself down onto the bench Julen was sitting on rather suddenly before julen could even answer. Well to be honest it didn't really matter, he wasn't going to say no anyways. "You ok kid?" he said in a short statement. While the kid was trying to not pass out julen grabbed his water bottle and handed to the kid as a gesture of "kindness" or at least ensuring julen isnt blamed for not helping him should the police come and this kid was dead not from light scything to the heart. While the kid was recovering he took the chance to check him out, he looked rather young and in good shape...why was he going so hard?
"You got a big event to prepare for?" he asked casually trying to make conversation with the kid. Julen laid back on the bench and did his classic cool guy putting his arm behind the bench and letting it hang pose. He wondered what to say next since talking was not exactly his strongest suit. He was more a man of action.

Without a second thought the sweaty teen accepted the water bottle from the strange man and turned it up as if it was a ice cold beer on a hot summer day. This was well the opposite, he was drinking cold water one a cold day and nearly gave himself a brain freeze. He clutched the back of his head and gave it a shake s he quickly tried to shake off the pain and took a deep breath once it was gone. Turning up the water again he raised it well over his mouth, the clear liquid dribbling into his mouth, onto his chin and down. He’d finish of by pouring it onto his head as well and shaking his head again. He was now a wet mess and no doubt likely got his new friend wet too. “Well, I wouldn’t say an event. I just need to work out some stress.” he ran his fingers through his wet hair, “I got into some trouble for calling a kid a freak at my school, then it got extended to everyone with quirks.” he told the man a bit more than he should have, but given that he didn’t show any signs of being quirked he figured it was safe enough. “It’s a misunderstanding if anything I’d say mister.” he handed the ma back the water bottle and relaxed onto the bench with his arms resting behind the back rest, “Thanks though, you’re a big help.” he offered thanks as well as his hand for a handshake. May as well be polite. |

He watched as taylor eagerly grabbed the bottle and poured it over his head to cool himself off, despite the fact it was rather cold outside and the water itself was cold. Julen nodded silently as he thanked him for the water and continued to explain his situation to the stranger.What? Wait wait wait back up, what the hell did this kid just say? "Where do you go to school? What did you say that people twisted it?" he asked curiously, he tried to keep a lid on his anger hoping that it was just a misunderstanding but Julen feared it was going to not be a misunderstanding.
He put his hand up when it came to the water bottle "Nah its ok you can keep it, im not thirsty." he said trying to be kind to the kid in order to get him to open up, instrumental kindness is a useful tool that Julen was good at using. He let out a big sigh and tried to stretched his arms looking up."If you need someone to hear you out im all ears kid. I understand what it's like to be misunderstood." he said telling lies through his teeth, if someone misunderstood him his usual answer was to sock them in the fast or a quick slice with his scythe.

Taylor thought it over for a moment, the man seemed nice enough to confide in thus he would offer a meek smile and retell what he had said. Sure, it had been some time since the incident but it would have been nice to get it off of his chest, “While back ago I made a mistake and called a friend of mine a freak. Messed up and that extended to everyone else.” he admitted it with no shame, the only tinge of emotion in his words was a sliver of guilt.
“I know it wasn’t right, an at the time I felt like everyone was overreacting but then this person I cared about probably heard about it and I tried to run away.” he retold a few parts of the story that was a tad unnecessary, “Luckily for me they really liked this sea bunny thing back at the festival so I managed to win that for them in hopes they would have forgiven me. Gotta tell you, mister, they’re really nice blue hair, blue eyes, flawless features. Very pretty person.”
He digressed quite a bit as he explained himself, screwing the lid back on the water bottle as he leaned into the bench, while the man registered his words Taylor would pull out his phone to take a quick glance at the U.A. chat page.
“So, what brings you out here?” he asked as he thumbed through a few chat logs, it seemed things were going normally the person he was speaking on just happened to be on. He typed out something about them having zero faults before looking back at his acquaintance. "Oh right, her name was Melody by the way. ha ha, sorry it's kinda random but I think about em alot."

Julen sat and heard the kid out, jeez he liked to talk. Julen himself usually was not one to say many words to those he was not on friendly terms with. He listen to Taylor talk about his situation while they both sat on the bench, ugh...annoying..Julen always struggled feeling empathy for others and their problems. He just didn't really care about it, especially if it didn't affect his situation, however something pushed him to keep talking to Taylor despite how short his responses would be. That's when he heard something rather peculiar that struck his interest, "sea-bunnies, blue hair, eyes, flawless features." those 4 words painted quite a vivid in Julen's mind, it sounded like his half sister Melody. Taylor had asked what brought Julen out here, he had quickly thought of a lie without even second guessing "I'm on break for work at the moment, thought I'd come outside and enjoy the sunlight."
Ok this fucking kid was talking about Melody, he just said her name and no other person in Japan probably had an English name, a vague one like that either. He clenched his fist out of sight from Taylor, how dare he, how dare she be allowed to be happy while he sat in the darkness suffering and wrestling with the actions of their parents. His thoughts became muddled as anger clouded his thoughts, he wanted to let out his frustration something. Seem's like Taylor was going to become that something, he stood up and lit a cigarette, not caring that the park was a no smoke zone. "My break's about to end, you wanna come with me to keep talking?" he said to Taylor trying to keep it short and brief as to not lose his cool.
As they walked Julen would lead Taylor to a dark alleyway, he focused for a second trying to see how much sunlight he had stored to create weapons. Julen would try to distract him with some chatter despite him being rather annoyed, he took a quick pull from his cigarette "So what was it you said that made everyone upset?" he said asking curiously as to what he had said in the U.A chat. "And this Melody girl, what makes her so special to you?" he asked curiously trying to extract some info on her for himself. He turned around and stood next to a random door he pretended was where he worked as he laid against the wall with his foot behind him to support his weight. He looked up and let out a puff of smoke as he looked at Taylor. he tried to gather as much information as he could from the kid too "Lastly, what's your full name?" he said. He knew right away Taylor had to be from the united states, he had a small accent too from the way he spoke, similar to Melody's but less refined. Did she have feelings for him too? It would be useful to know if she did.
