POST CANON TRIPS WITH FLYNN: For bravestknight

[The world after Blastia was never going to be an easy one, of course. They had all committed to it, knowing very well there would be people cursing their names, with bitter hatred and spite. Even with the combined efforts of the whole world working together - Empire, Guilds and Aspio alike - there would be people who were angry.

And willing to use whatever they could to get back at the Empire and Guilds. Including Giganto monsters, apparently. Yuri shifts on his feet, sword at the ready as he watches the movements of the guards in the valley below. Somehow, this rogue group had managed to capture a Giganto to launch against Dahngrest and Zaphias. Whatever was the first target didn't matter.

Yuri and the rest of Brave Vesperia were here to stop it. And apparently, so was the Flynn brigade. He glances over at Flynn]

The Empire must be feeling really antsy about this if they've sent the Commandant himself to help deal with this group.

[A few years ago, there might have been barbed edges in there. But now, it was just warm amusement at the absurdity of it all. He should have known Flynn wouldn't be content to sit behind his desk while sending out his best knights to deal with this]

What were they calling themselves again?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Flynn sighed and looked at the other with a small smile. Yuri was always like that, even since the world started to get better. However, they really hadn't anticipated the people who were stuck to the old ways even when it was pointed out that they would have all died.

It was surprising how many people wanted to sink their world with blastia instead of trying to convert everything over to mana.]

Or maybe I decided to take a vacation and tag along. Either way.

[Flynn nudged his shoulder into Yuri's as they walked along. When asked about the name of the organization causing the most trouble.]

Um...New Blastia Organization Boys...Or something?

[Yuri would laugh outright, if they weren't trying to be sneaky. How Flynn manages to be quiet with all that heavy armor is beyond him, but it works. He huffs a little as they stick to the cover of the forest, moving into a better position to launch an attack]

You'd think for a group of ex-Aspio mages, they'd have better naming sense.

[How embarrassing. He nudges Flynn back in turn. That was rude, Flynn.]

[He is fairly quiet and sure in his steps as he chuckles and nudges Yuri back gently and shakes his head putting his finger to his lips. It was time to stop talking as they could hear others through the brush close to them.

He motioned at Yuri between them and then towards the other and held up three fingers.]

[Yuri nods, pointing north and holding up another two fingers.

Three close by. Two walking back.

Easy pickings, honestly. Yuri wasn't worried]

[Nods again and he stands up ready to go for it. Might as well since they already know that it's only five people. He unsheathes his sword and gives one last look to Yuri before stepping out of the brush near one of the mages, using the butt of his sword to hit at the base of their neck and knock them out.]

[The good thing about a single-edged sword is that you can make your choice about whether or not you want lethal force. The Empire and Guilds wanted these mages all captured, so Yuri swings out from the clearing, getting the drop on another mage with a Ghost Wolf. Cheerfully]

Nice party you're all having here. Mind if we join in?

["G-G-Guilds! Knights! Sound the--urk!" Yuri slams an elbow into a mage's solar plexus, dropping him and grins at the others]

Come on, you can all do better than that.

[Ah--Yuri recognised some of these guys. Former Ruins' Gate. Now that blastia was useless for excavating. It made sense they'd join up with the mages]

Now the question is, whether they go with you--

[Flynn uses demon fang sending a mage tumbling.]

Or with me at the end of their lesson.

[He also seems very cheerful about what's going on. This is what he had wanted all along really, to be beside Yuri doing missions and taking down people that were a threat. Their positions just made it a little harder to coordinate.]

Hey, don't you think the Guilds have first dibs here?

[Flipping out of the way and he promptly uses a raging fist to knock out another mage before he can get a spell off. Way too easy]

I guess it really doesn't matter, does it?

[Flynn sheathed his sword and wiped his hands off and turned producing rope from the bag he had stashed in the bushes. He quietly tied up each of the mages making sure they were firmly in custody before wiggling the end of the rope at Yuri.]

I definitely wouldn't mind if you wanted to have the first shot. That means I don't have to do paperwork.

Kinda does. The boss is worried we wont get paid.

[Yuri doesn't see anything wrong with that - Karol just fretted over money constantly for no reason. But hey, in the name of the Brightest Star in the sky and all. Yuri makes an amused noise as he takes the rope]

Should have known the Knights wouldn't be that generous for no reason. Judy'll be by soon to grab them. And we'll bring them back to Dahngrest. You can sort it out with Whitehorse from there, if any Empire big shots have a fit.

[Hm. Maybe this was a little too easy though. How did such weak mages cause such a ruckus?]

Trust me, I'm pretty sure you will.

[Flynn would make sure of it actually. That was one thing that he had been cracking down on in the Empire; no stiffing the guilds of money. If there was a problem they could handle it like professionals and adults.

At Yuri's quip, Flynn smiles a small tender smile.]

I'll head back to Dhangrest with you because it's been too long since we spent time together. I'll head back to the Capital in a day or two.

[He would leave that to Yuri's imagination of what he meant. After all, that was part of the fun.]

Hmm, this part of your vacation time? Better be careful you don't lose your head.

[There's pleasure in hearing that, though Yuri is quick to stifle it. It would be a little uncool of him to be that pleased, even if it has been some time since he got to hang out with Flynn. No fault of either of them of course - missions kept them both occupied for long stretches of time. Repede prances up to them as they return to the clearing, Yuri cheerfully dragging the New Blastia Boys? behind him without any ceremony]

I won't lose my head because you have my back.

[Flynn points out amicably as he walks beside Yuri. He turns and looks behind them to check on the New Blastia Boys and sighs as he looks back to Yuri.]

Do you think we can make it back to Dhangrest by dark? If not, we will have to take shifts tonight watching them and rest.

[He wasn't worried about it, but it was still not something he was particularly looking forward to if it happened.]

Hmm. Judy and Ba'ul are probably a little out of reach right now, so we might have to take the long way.

[That wasn't really a problem, but...he glances at their dead weight and nearly sighs himself. What a pain]

I don't suppose you have a cage we can just stick them in for now lying around?

Not that I know of. If the Empire starts to put any random cages around I'll make sure you're the first to know so you can make use of them.

[Neither one of them wants to deal with their captives, but then they really don't have much of a choice do they?]

I guess there's no point in staying here any longer if we want to get back to Dhangrest at a reasonable time.

Man, why do I have a feeling there's a bunch of people who wouldn't be able to wait to use it on me.

[Anyway, so Flynn doesn't get any ideas to tease him with, Yuri nudges Flynn lightly and points ]

Judy and the boss should be back there, waiting for us. I think they bad a fun time raiding those labs.

That sounds very different. Is there someone I need to be worried about?

[He still going to tease him. He looks at Yuri and nods as he turns going that way.]

Let's go meet them and make sure that everything is completely wrapped up.

It depends on if you like the idea of me being locked up by other people--

[Time to cut themselves off though. There are some jokes that are not meant for Karol's innocent ears. Yuri nods, waving them over as he drags along their prisoners to an excited looking Karol. It looked like Judy and Karol had a lot more excitement than them, judging by the monsters everywhere]

We've got prisoners for delivery. Your next command, boss?

["Yuri! Flynn! You did it!" Karol grins, then straightens up, coughing as he tries to summon some boss-like energy. "Um. I guess they can go on the ship. I don't think Judy and Ba'ul would mind...Harry Whitehorse said we just need to deliver them to the cells and Altosk would take it from there."]

[Flynn clears his own throat and chuckles as he brushes past Yuri, giving him a meaningful glance. He goes to check on the monsters and make sure that they are all dead before he turns and looks to Yuri after he got the commands from his boss.]

So, let's go back to Dhangrest. I'll send a report back to His Highness Ioder when we arrive.

Don't leave me hanging just because you had to chase after some work. [Because that would be rude] Come on, lets hitch a ride. The Giganto isn't anywhere nearby now.

[ Is Yuri a little pouty they missed out on a good fight? Maybe. He waves Flynn to follow as he drags the prisoners onto the ship, tying them to the pole and settling in for what would be a very quick ride back.]

Right, right. I promise I won't leave you alone too long. You still live in the same area, when you go to Dhangrest, hm?

[Flynn plans on staying with him anyway. He brushes past Yuri and gives him a meaningful, small tender smile as he goes to check on the prisoners and get them settled.]

Yeah, yeah. [Sulky!! ] Brave Vesperia Headquarters are still where you last saw us.

[ Not much has changed at all. They needed to be at the center of guilds so new recruits could find them and missions could be picked up easily]

[It's only a few moments before Flynn ends up coming back out to move towards Yuri, tapping his shoulder with his knuckles.]

So, I can share your room?

[He lowers his voice so only Yuri can hear.]

--and your bed?

[Yuri's annoyance vanishes in instant and he glances back, heat in his gaze. He brushes his fingers against Flynn's, smiling]

Hm. If you're not going to complain about the tight fit...there might be room.

I doubt we will have time to really complain about anything.

[Flynn tangles their fingers together and holds his hand quietly as they fall into a nice simple, comfortable, silence.]
