Slades Outfit Minus Shades Slade could only guess how many jewelry stores he'd cased in the past. Ten? Fifteen? Twenty one and a half? The number in his head only seemed to go up the further back he thought, the man getting giddy as he remembered his pile of glittery rocks and fancy watches, a fun little huddle all to himself to nestle up in and take a nap, where he could dream about even more items of rarity! Alas, that was no longer the case when it came to Slade, having hidden away only a tiny portion of his former treasure that would now have to sustain him, the rest of his goodies either in lock up or returned to their rightful place. Damn legal system, handing out his hard stolen goods. On the upside though, every object in even the smallest of establishments now held far greater value to the brute, much like the one before him. Slade stood before the jewelry outfit on the street corner of a lower end neighborhood in Toronto, the man thankful for the cool wind grazing his cheek as he cased the joint, earning only a few looks from passersby, but moreso for his overall size than fear he'd attempt anything. There was no way a guy that big would be sneaking anything out of a small store like that, and who was going to try something in the middle of the day? Slade stood there a moment longer, grinning as he rubbed his chin twice, eyeing a big, blue diamond center piece in the window. A difficult one, but good for dusting off rusty skills. Stretching a bit, Slade prepped himself with a big grin as he declared, "Time to go to work..." And slipped on a pair of shades as he entered the store, small bell going off as he did so. Inside, it was cramped as all hell to him, but that just put more things in reach. It seemed a dusty room, a fair number of cases filled with necklaces, rings and watches of all manner, gold, blue and light pinks glittering in his eyes, Slade struggling to stop himself from salivating. Dashing his eyes about as he heard some noise, Slade found an old man sweeping away further in the back, complete with glasses, work apron and a mess of grey hair. Hmm... he'd need to be quick if this was some kind of family business. The codger would have every aspect of this place memorized to a tee, so a missing piece was sure to catch his eye. For now though, the man glanced at Slade, smiling genuinely with a wave that the giant returned. "Yo geezer! Lookin for something the wife'll find real cute, ya know a butterfly necklace or somethin' hokie. Got anything like that?" Slade asked as he leaned on a display case, his grin ever present and a chuckle within his head as he saw the old man nod and set aside his broom, smiling as he responded. "Of course, of course! Let me just hop to the back and I'll be with you in a second!" And like clockwork, the geezer was off, leaving a grinning thief all to himself. Waiting for the man to shuffle away, Slade jumped right into his work, snapping the lock on the case next to him and digging inside to grab hold of a gold necklace. Yes... the feeling of the chains, the woven details, the sensation of wealth through his fingertips was something he'd pined for for so long. Lost in his fantasy, the thief abruptly shook his head from side to side, remembering his mission. He was without baggy clothes, but pockets would do, funneling the the gold bits into his pants like there was no tomorrow, his malicious grin only growing. "Ahem." Slade halted at the grunt, turning his head to see the owner back with a tray of necklaces from the back, looking very unimpressed. For a moment, Slade's features were blank, a bit taken aback by the man's bravery in even hinting to challenge him. Soon after, the giant gave a hearty chuckle, pulling his hands out of the case and spreading his arms wide, declaring with a softer smile, "Okay, Geezer. Let's just have this go smoothly and no one has to go to the ER..." From there, the man's grin only grew as he approached the still unyielding man as he grabbed a broom for a weapon. Cute. Slade woke up on the sidewalk a few minutes later, a small crowd gather around the man as a headache took form, slowly but surely. He didn't know how the old man had done it, but he'd had his ass right kicked. There weren't supposed to be old man ninjas in Canada damn it. Before anyone could ask the man if he was okay, he got to his feet, hands in his pockets as he towered over the now more fearful crowd, it seeming the geezer had left it at a beating and had chosen to forego the police. Slade walked but a small ways away from the store, cursing himself for having gotten so rusty in prison before he spied a puddle by the roadside, peaking over to get a better look at himself. Nothing insanely bad, but there were definite bruises, which was not high on what he considered a scale of fun. Sighing to himself, the brute parked his rear on the sidewalk, again ignoring the glances as the crowd dispersed, wondering what had gone on with the man. There Slade sat, moping a bit as he roamed in his pockets, searching for anything that hadn't been taken back. His eyes lit up a moment as he felt a small gem, lifting it up and out to the light, holding the tiny blue creature to the sunlight with his index and thumb as he closed one eye for a better look. Was it... yes, it was in fact... "Garbage..." Slade commented, a true frown on his face as his tail slumped, resting his head on his hands and sighing once more. This day kinda sucked. |

He was certainly lost. Shin's sense of direction proved to be kinda poor. He asked for directions several times to the point where he felt a little uneasy asking again. How hard could it be to find the new spectrum office he told himself. Turns out surprsingly hard, least for him it was anyway. He wasn't even that interested in seeing the office if he was honest. He was overseas for medical school which he just finished dropping out of and wanted to explore and see this side of the world before he headed back to Japan. His ears twitched as he stared at his smart phone's GPS. "Is it rerouting again...?" he mumbled, tilting his head and poking at the screen which only made the map spin and zoom out, confusing the boy more. He growled a little, this was clearly the phone's fault not his at all. He looked back in the direction he came from, his phone having rerouted him that way. It actually didn't, he was just looking at the map upside down. He was walking backwards as he tried to figure out where the heck he was going and as a result he tripped over someone on the floor. Shin fell with a startled "N-nyeh?!" falling onto his bottom with a grunt. "Ow ow...what the heck?" he looked over at the man he was now seated by, the source of his fall. Though Shin would of likely tripped on his own regardless... Shin blinked at the new friend, well, soon to be friend since he was going to help Shin stop being so lost. He just didn't know it. Shin dragged his legs back, hugging them to his chest while staring at the other. "Hiya." he said simply with a small smile on his lips. Though on further inspection of the other he could see he looked a little rough up. Shin could make tons of guess on how he got hurt. A bar fight, a jealous boyfriend, a jealous boyfriend in a different way, boss taking out frustration on a goon, or maybe he was doing vigilante work. Whatever the reason was, Shin didn't care. He reached over and placed both hands on either side of the other man's face without asking permission. Shin pushed up on his knees to make up for the height difference even as the other was seated. "Does it hurt anywhere? Like, it probably kinda hurts all over but does anything stick out?" he asked as he examined Slade, he wasn't going to bother asking what happened. "It doesn't look too bad, besides you look tough whatever happened I'm sure you can take it." he told him with a small smirk, if Slade allowed him, he would press his palms firmly against the other, his hands felt cold and wet as if he'd been sweating a lot. Which was kind of gross to be honest but it was not sweat he was smearing on the other, he was applying a dark green blueish color on the other's face, in small doses. The gel was cold and would tingle a bit, but it would not feel unplesant exactly. "Don't worry, that should help." Shin explained as he put his hands back down, sitting back down. "Does it hurt anywhere else?" he asked as he looked up at the other. Shin had a habit of ignoring the fact that he wasn't a doctor, and one of just helping people when he saw them. Regardless of who this person could be Shin wanted to help him, to help anyone he can. Shin also started feeling like he wanted a snack, maybe this guy could point him to some jell-o or something to eat. Edited by LukaLuka, May 24 2018, 12:16 AM.

Arson maybe? Setting a fire was a good distraction... though it would also cost him a lot of loot if it got out of control? Wait until night? Usually better under the cover of darkness... But the old man had already seen him go for it, so there was a good chance he'd have the place on high alert from the local cops. He could take 'em, but a chase from the law was definitely not on his to do list, at least not so soon after getting away from them. Go in for Round 2?... Definitely the worst of his options, considering how handy that geezer was with a broom. Asshole, being so good at defending his stuff at his age, what did he need all the money for when he was gonna keel over any second? These thoughts and more all went through the thief's head as he sat on the sidewalk, grumbling to himself and ignoring the world around him. That damned center piece was going to be his, he just needed to figure out how to approach this heist, finding it far more difficult than he'd expected from what was supposed to be a simple warm up job. There had to be a way to tackle this... Slade quickly found his thoughts themselves tackled by something, the man moving with a start as someone tripped backwards over him, turning to his side to find what looked to be some catty, teenage girl, rubbing her rear before she switched expressions entirely, giving him a friendly greeting. Ever a friendly soul, the man practically forgot about the tripping as a toothy smile came to his face and he responded, "Yo! Don't meet too many friendly cats!" The man laughed at his own joke as the stranger scrutinized him, Slade surprised when asked if he was hurt, the man's smile dropping as he responded, "Eh, I'm fine, just a headache really. Old bastard came outta nowhere and-" The brute was quickly cut off as the cat girl went about readying some kind of goo in her hands, the lack of odor surprising Slade as cold liquid met his face, tingling all over as he kept his mouth agape, more confused than anything as she spread the healing gel. Slade knew women were keen to be all over him, but this was something new altogether, and was she even legal?! That worry, however, seemed to pass as the stranger removed their hands from his face, the black-haired thief bringing a clawed hand to his own features as he was surprised to find dry, healed skin. There Slade sat, almost ignoring the girl's question as he checked himself for his previous injuries, contemplating his next course of action. "That... was... awesome!" The man declared, hopping to his feet in a move that caused a rumble on the ground, flexing a bicep with a grin as blocked out a portion of the sun, filled with glee as annoying bruises and muscle spasms of moments ago had vanished. Toothy grin remaining and tail swinging around like a drunken batter, Slade peeked back down at the stranger, snatching her up by the collar of her shirt and bringing her to his eye level with the arm he'd been flexing, declaring, "Awesome stuff Doc! Name's Slade Castle, and if you ever want somethin stolen, I'm your guy!" The man then forced his hand around the cat girl's, eclipsing it by a fair margin as he gave it a violent shake and kept a toothy grin. Shin was probably now aware of the positives and negatives that came with Slade, too, having no personal boundaries to speak of. |

Shin hadn't noticed exactly how beast like the other man was with his own tails and claws. Shin's ears and tail weren't all that useful he found, the tail not helping him with his balance. As he displayed just now falling on his rear. Though that might of been due to walking reversed like a fool. Either way it looked like the gel did it's trick, the man felt better. Re-energized even as he hopped back up to his feet. Shin was about average height in most places of the world but this man made him look tiny, teeny even. Especially from his seated position. Shin smiled, it was nice to see someone who looked so down on their luck feeling so much better now. He didn't think his gel would have this kind of affect on someone though! He didn't usually put the spry back in their step but Shin figured this man just had a lot of energy, which made sense. He was a large man so he had a lot of room for energy. Enough energy to suddenly lift Shin up by his collar, the boy yelping in response as he was pulled up to his feet and then further onto the tips of his toes due to the size difference of the two. Shin was nearly dangling with the other suspending him, blinking rapidly with the sudden burst of excitment from the other. He seemed so bummed out a moment ago! While Shin was glad he'd rather be put down back to the earth, not a fan of being held up like a toy or child. He'd ask the other to put him down now, politely as it was probably better to keep someone this large on his good side. He gave a small chuckle and a grin, rubbing the back of his head before trying to speak "N-Nyahaha I'm glad you feel better but could you ma-" though the other cut him off and Shin got the feeling he was not exactly listening to Shin. He took Shin's arm in his and it looked like if he tried to flex it there he could snap the cat's arm in half, prety scary Shin thought. Wait what did he say? Stealing stuff? Shin was curious on how such a big lug could get himself into such a defeated position and that explained it. Who did he steal from Shin wondered and how on earth did he lose the fight? Curious as he was Shin was never one to pry. Though he figured he could maybe give him a tip to avoid getting beat up over stealing, that tipping be don't steal. Shin opened his mouth to begin a sort of scold or lecture but gave a tiny wince at the nickname Doc. That struck a nerve with the cat. He wasn't a doctor, he was a failure. He gave up and walked away... Shin's eyes narrowed as he lost himself to the feeling of disappointment but only for a moment as he quickly shook it off and looked up at the other and opening his mouth to speak "I'm actually not a do- n-nyaaa-ah-ah!?" why was he shaking him suddenly! The big one was large enough to shake Shin's entire body leaving him feeling like a rag doll. Shin reached up to try and pinch Slade's nose as a way to settle him down and get his attention. "I'm glad you feel better but why the heck are you stealing stuff! Also why are you just openly admitting to stealing stuff? You'll get in trouble ya know?" |

Damn, this little gal was fun! She seemed eager to butt in at every word Slade had, not an ounce scared of the man, shaking in what was surely excitement! Well, she was meeting him after all, so that was a given. She also didn't look half bad, if he was being honest, lean build, good leg muscles, she felt sturdy enough and the cat parts were too gosh darn adorable to ignore! Though, every time he wanted to dial up any charm and give it the old college try, there seemed to be some sort of instinctual barrier warning him about pursuing that action, but what that was he just couldn't put his finger on... Oh well, that was a worry for another time, as stopping his shaking of the airborne cat was probably a good idea, figuring she was probably only so sturdy within his estimates. It also looked like she was fairly upset with him, declaring she was happy he was okay, but not too happy with him mouthing off about stealing stuff, namely wondering why he was stealing in general. Slade thought for a moment, scratching his chin as dainty fingers plugged his nose, the man finding it a strange sensation to be shut down like this, but not the worst way it had happened before. One hand still holding the girl, Slade continued to think through a response, one swearing the sun had dipped slightly within the time it had taken him to reach his conclusion, turning back to the cat in his hand and declaring, "Good point. Shouldn't yell before a job." His face was serious, but his mind was spent, not often having to do this much thinking over an action. Arm growing bored, and more he had to answer for, Slade, pulled upwards without warning, planting the physician on his left shoulder while his other hand continued to hang from his chin as he spoke, continuing, "And I guess I don't really have to steal, but it's a fun hobby, and hell of a lot cheaper than paying for stuff. For instance, that big blue rock over there..." The thief pointed towards the store he'd just been kicked out of, the blue diamond center piece glistening in the sunlight. The store owner walked behind the glass not long after, noticing Slade pointing at the store and glaring at him, the behemoth flipping him the bird back. "It'd take me months, a year maybe before I could even have a shot at buying up a rock like that, and then i gotta worry about if it's still even gonna be there, if prices go up, if I even want it then... well, I still would, I mean look at it. But if I stole it, it'd be mine right now and all those worries go away," The man then crossed his arms, getting pouty over his lack of having the blue diamond before looking up at his passenger, asking in a half genuine, half sarcastic tone, "You gotta a better way to spend the time, Doc?" |

Being put down seemed to be a dream of the past now, feeling the ground beneath his shoes was already a forgotten memory as Shin was helplessly flung around like a toy in the large man's arm. Shin's gel never gave someone so much energy before so he figured this guy was just...all natural. Good for him he supposed but not so great for the poor cat. Once Slade seened to actually hear Shin's words the shaking and laughing stopped as the big guy seemed to understand that shouting about stealing stuff was probably not a good idea. Shin almost thought he would even get to be on the ground once more but that was not in his future it seemed as he was now seated and riding on the other's large shoulder. Least he didn't have to walk... Shin accepted his place as the man's temporary parrot. Shin lowed half of his lip a bit as the man explained his reason for stealing. Shin did not like to judge but that just seemed like asking for trouble with a thought process like that. Unfortunately for the cat that only made him worry for the big lug. Having little doubt he'd find himself hurt again soon enough. Shin followed the man's pointed finger, staring at the store he apparently attempted to steal from and met eyes with the old man behind the glass. Shin gave an awkward wave that tried to convey 'I swear I'm not going to try and rob you, I don't actually know him.' but the look the shopkeeper shot Shin made it apparent he cared little for Slade's supposed company. Though something suddenly dawned on him... Shin blinked a few times. Looking between the old man and down to Slade, his eyes sliding back and forth a few times as his mind slowly pieced the cause of Slade's injuries when he found him together in his mind. "Did you...try to mug him? But got your ass kicked?" Shin asked, though he had trouble stifling a chuckle as he asked the last question. The image painted in his mind of this old shopkeep being some kind of power house despite Slade having such a large size over what looked like a regular old guy, it was too much for Shin as he covered his mouth to supress giggles. The cat would have probably fallen off the other's shoulder if he didn't keep him place with how much he was heaving. His small giggle breaking into a laugh as he moved his hand from his mouth to hugging his lower half. "Nyahahahahaah~!! Wh-what happened? He beat you up? Ahaha, h-how even?? You look like you could eat him!" It was kind of rude of Shin but it was just so baffling that he could not keep a lid on it. Though Shin managed to settle down quickly, clearing his throat and letting last little bits of chuckles and giggles out of his system as he tried to calm down. "So...what you are saying is, you don't wanna wait? When you want something you want it then and there huh?" that...was not exactly harmful if nothing else. Maybe rude or rash, something like that, but it was not malicious if nothing else. Least he didn't wanna burn orphans or something Shin figured, could be worse. As a kid Shin swiped a few candybars and toys himself, that was kind of like stealing a gem right? Well, none of that was really his concern. Shin's concern was the Slade would end up getting himself hurt worse by trying to take from someone stronger than the old man over there. Shin scratched his cheek trying to think of something... "I'm Shin. I'm from Japan." he introduced himself, late but better than never. "You do stuff like that regularly huh?" Shin came to see some sights before returning to japan but... Well, there was not anything waiting for him there. Dropped out of medical school with nothing to do and nowhere to go really... Shin nodded to himself. For now, he'd stick with this guy. Fix him up or anyone he hurts. Why not? Well, if Slade would allow him to accompany him that is. "Mind if I stick around with you? I get the feeling you'll need some patching up every now and again. Plus I got nowhere else to go." Shin patted the side of his head like he was commanding a mount to start moving. "Come on, let's go apologize to the old timer. I need to patch him up if your hurt him also. Who knows maybe you'll get a chance to swipe the gem again." he said, making it apparent that Shin cared not about his thievery. If it wasn't apparent that Shin was more towards the neutral side of things it might have been now. "Oh, I'm not a doctor by the way." |

It looked like the geezer was sour enough about the attempted robbery to even send a crazy mad glare at the girl on his shoulder, Slade adding another bird to the flock of growing disposition towards the loon, the store owner finally hobbling off in a huff. Most men would have been glad the guy hand't called the cops or turned Slade in, but Slade was above most men, so people giving him special treatment was expected. The doctor, however, seemed in no way as special as Slade and was in no way involved with the robbery, the thief not at all happy with that kind of treatment. He could do this job without an accomplice, and now they were probably going to lump some of the credit on the stranger, stupid, good at fighting geezer... The cat girl didn't seem nearly as perturbed as him by the event, however, taking delight in Slade's horrid circumstance, thinking it funny that he was bested in what was no doubt a ferocious battle with a trained, bit hidden master of a secret martial art, one that Slade simply wasn't ready for and had just been... blinded for a moment or two was all! If the thief had known the old codger was actually a trained elite of some unknown fighting form, he would have won that fight in no time flat, he'd simply just been caught unawares, and now he was being laughed at for it. The man could only cross his arms and pout in response to all the laughing, waiting for the stranger to calm down before responding, "Damn right I could eat him, but he got lucky was all! He got a few surprise hits in, not like I expected Methuselah to be a ninja warrior, or that he'd have a weapon handy!" Once again, his conversation partner was moved by the collar, Slade pressing their noses together as he declared with furrowed brows as he waved his free hand about, "On top of that, he's lucky I held back! Killing ain't my style, last resort kinda deal! If I wanted to do some real damage, I'd have the diamond by now! He's lucky I'm such a nice guy!" Point made, the man huffed, putting the girl back on his shoulder and crossing his arms once more as she talked, looking away as he maintained his pout and his tail fell. It seemed there was at least a change of topic, the cat seeming to slowly figure out Slade's thoughts on stealing, his smile quickly returning as he wiped a thumb across his nose, adding to her thoughts, "Damn right, waitin's a drag! I'm also just really good at getting what I want. The harder it is to get, the more I want it! Best part of stealin' expensive stuff is getting to brag about what you had to go through to get it! Bet you medical types are the same, always waitin on a super close to dead patient to show off your skills." The girl then moved to finally introduce herself, Slade flashing a thumbs up at the introduction, but said no more, having already given his name and a veritable shake down. When asked if he did something like "this" often, the man had to think for a moment, the question actually a hard one to answer and not just his thick skull impeding thought for a change, taking up the familiar position of finger to chin as he responded, "Technically I do this all the time, but a stint in the big house has my record kinda weak as of late, but I'll get back on track in no time, you'll see, Doc!" Hearing the girl's next words sent the man into a yelp of surprise, not often having that many people realize how great he was and ask to actually hang out, Slade nodding his head ferociously as he bumped Shin off his shoulder, catching the girl in his arms and giving her the biggest hug he could manage, always keen to show that he was the best at giving affection, declaring, "You bet your ass Shin! With you around, I can get broken in half and go back in swinging! I'll be the best at fighting there ever was! Hmm..." The neko was given a moment of relief as Slade relinquished one arm, scratching his head as he said, "If we're gonna be a team though, we're gonna need a team name... got it!" Pointing to the heavens, the man gained the attention of all around as he openly declared to the world, "From henceforth, we'll be known as... Shlind! A fantastic combination of our names that will live on forever!" To complete the statement as many shuffled by in embarrassment out of empathy, the man gave Shin another harsh hug, a quiet thought in his head as he squeezed tight and smiled: This poor girl was flat as could be. Still, she was by far one of the friendlier types he'd met and had other redeeming traits, so he saw no qualm in keeping the good doctor around, placing her back on his shoulder as she spoke about going back in and apologizing, Slade already not liking where this was going. When, however, the cat girl brought up getting a second chance at the diamond, he instantly smashed a fist into his hand, declaring as he ignored her last statement, "Awesome plannin, Doc! You distract him, and I'll grab the goods, all while he thinks I'm torn up inside!" Way beyond excited, Slade ran right across the street as traffic howled by, keeping an arm on Shin's legs to keep her steady. The store door once again alerted the owner to the arrival of Slade, this time the bulking man holding a girl on his shoulder and a sullen expression on his face, the shopkeep greatly confused as he handled a box of merchandise, steadily nearing his broom. Then, without warning, Slade released Shin and tipped forward in a bow, declaring through crocodile tears, "Please forgive me sir! I just couldn't help myself, and I don't have the money to pay, but it was for my wife, honest! Go ahead, ask her!" Still false balling, Slade nudged Shin with his foot on theirs gently, whispering through blubbers, "C'mon, give the old coot the rub and then let's get the fun started..." |

Shin stretched his neck back when Slade tried to press their noses together, wincing slightly as his personal space was not only invaded, but conquered and destoryed. Shin did not thing himself short, average if nothing else, but this man was able to swing him around like he was a child or toy. With how excited he got however it seemed Shin made a friend in Slade, which to the average person might of been considered less than great. But Shin welcomed all as pals even one who was currently hugging him too tightly, Shin cringing as it felt like his spine could snap in half. Shin had the feeling Slade was going to be an exhausting travel companion though he already kinda figured that. Shin even almost thought he was going to be put down after the hug but nope, still riding. "Shlind sounds like a virus that would keep you stuck on the toliet. Let's uh, let the name come naturally huh? By the way. What's your quirk? Being real big?" Shin asked. The man was openly admitting to being a crimnal so Shin figured he had to have something decently strong. Or sneaky, though from where Shin stood, sat rather, he hadn't gotten a good look at the man entirely yet. Slade seemed really eagerly to take another crack at swiping the gem again though at this point Shin figured he didn't even actually want, it was more so his pride that he was trying to take back. Shin's offer to go help the doctor was genuine as the cat did not actually intend to help Slade, but off the giant was hurrying over the store. Kids often try and ride their dogs like a mount though it never worked out unless the kid was tiny and the dog large. Running over to the shop gave Shin the feeling of what it'd be like to ride a dog as a kid, holding onto Slade so that he didn't simple fall off. Once inside Slade did not account for the height he'd need to duck to get through the door, neglecting to take Shin's height into account as the smaller boy bumped his head on the top of the door way with a soft "F-fah!?" rubbing where he was struck with a bit of a huff, rubbing one finger across with his gel, it was no big deal. Though he looked a bit silly now. He could cover it with his bangs at least. Shin did not mean to become a accessory to Slade's crime though in a way he was the minute he implied his good deed would give Slade another chance at thievery. Slade on the other hand, had a completely different plan, tossing Shin into the deep end and leaving the spot light on him. The cat chuckled and gave the owner a grin as he bashfully rubbed the back of his head. He then also give him a deep bow. "I'm so sorry for my idiot!" Shin told him. Go hard or go home he figured. "We ah, are very poor you see." Shin held up the back of his hand to show he did not have a wedding ring. "We couldn't even afford rings or a ceremony. My mother told me he was no good, and I knew the kind of person he was but the heart wants what the heart wants you know?" Shin said, giving a sad smile. Well aware that their situation was unfavourable but they swore to love each through the good times and bad. Well, not really but Shin was trying to be convincing. Though now Shin turned around and motioned for Slade to bend back down, if he did, Shin would tug his ear harshly and give the big guy a smack on the back of the head. "Apologize to this nice old man like you mean it! If he called the cops I'd be raising our baby all alone!" Turning back to face the old man Shin bowed once again. "We are deeply sorry. Did my idiot of a husband hurt you anywhere? My quirk lets me mend wounds, even minor ones. If you'd allow me to, I'd be happy to help you feel ten years younger again!" |

Slade was a bit confused over the name being called a toilet virus, the man fairly happy with the name himself, but figuring that since they were a duo he'd need to listen every once in a while, putting his hand to his chin for the umpteenth in thought over the debacle, wondering if he could come up with another amazing name on the spot. Alas, his brain was all out of thoughts for the day and decided to yield to the cat, declaring, "Well, I don't think it's that bad, but guess that'll be your job in this crew: All the stuff that makes my head hurt! I'll, of course, supply all the cool parts people will talk about..." The man finished off with a small pose, placing a knuckled on his hip and grinning wide, his teeth near sparkling in the light as he carried the cat about. When asked about his quirk, the man dropped his act for a moment, going back to a more genuine chuckle as he declared, "Hahaha! Pretty much, Doc! Used to be a runt before it kicked on, turned me into a reasonable size as ya see now. Other than that, got your standard wolf gear built in: night vision, sharp teeth, tail, smell and hearing... Though it is weird considering my mom was more bear and my dad was an accountant..." The man finished off with his trademark hand to chin pose, not too familiar with quirk tendencies and thus unsure of how he'd exactly ended up with what he had. Turning back up to the girl, Slade gave a look up and down, picking her off his shoulder and giving her an up and down look at arm's length before setting her back, asking, "What about you? You don't look like you got somewhere that goop comes from... And what about the cat parts? They do something besides look cute?" Once that matter was discussed, Slade broke traffic laws as he bucked about, entering the store and, unfortunately, forgetting that as small Shin was she still managed to sit above his head, helping the girl off as he apologized some before going into his act. Something the giant was glad for was how quickly Shin adapted, going right along with his act of being a simple couple, down on their luck. What he hadn't expected, however, was to be yanked by his ear and commanded to apologize, right after he apologized, the man surprised by the sudden burst of strength within the petite gal that saw genuine tears form in his eyes, arms flailing as he yelled out, "Ow! Ow! Ow! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Y-You're right, I should have been thinking of you and Eggbert!" How had Slade been saddled with a bundle of joy? The man wasn't quite sure, but he'd have done just about anything then and there to get his ear released, even be nice to Shin's mother, the horrid cow. Looking down on him, and why? Just cause his hobby happened to be illegal, should have been happy she got a grandkid and stuffed it from there! Soon as Slade got the chance, he was stuffing the broad in home, see how she likes him then! Back in the world of reality, the store owner was at a fair crossroads, very much unsure on how to proceed now. Part of him felt this was a scam... but the way that man screamed seemed fairly genuine. Against his better judgement the owner sighed, putting down his box of goods and waving his hands as he told Shin, "No, no, no, I understand. I've been on hard times before myself, so I've had the temptation. Long as you promise to keep a leash on your husband, I'd be happy to help you find something..." Mood having been quelled, the man smiled some as Shin neared, giving a small wave of his hand as he declared, "Oh, no fuss really! Sturdy as he was, he didn't manage to even nick me! He's a fair bit slower than I expected, so I might have gone overboard myself... But um... younger you say..." With the man distracted and his ear released, Slade flashed an okay symbol with one hand and rubbed his now red sensory organ with the other, slinking off to the window while Shin worked her magic. The giant was greatly tempted to try his luck and robbing the area blind once more, but apparently the coot hadn't even been trying before, Slade choosing to focus on the mission at hand for now. There was a small problem upon coming to that mission, however, the blue diamond on display behind not only a glass case but a weighted sensor as well. Damn, fiddling with all this would be noisy, no two ways about it. "Hey, um, honey!" The man started, opening the panel to the sensor as he kept low, trying to stay in character as he began cutting away at a wire before him with one of his claws. "Earlier he seemed um... pretty hard of hearing, think you can help him out with that?" |

Shin seemingly fell into the brains role, why he didn't consider himself all that smart he fit into it better than he would the brawn as Shin was clearly not beating Slade in a muscle contest. If those were a thing. Shin didn't actually know, regardless he told Slade "I'll uh, think of a name later don't worry." though this was a lie. Shin had no intentions of actually coming up with some team name, but would rather Slade not get attatched to the one he proposed. After hearing his answer on his quirk Shin blinked. He really was like a big dog, kind of. A dog and a cat traveling around together. Shin felt like this was be a decent premise for a film, maybe someone already made something like it. Shin shook his head when the man asked if his feline parts served any fuction. "My dad's do, the tail makes him all agile and balanced and his ears help hear like, everything. Mine don't seem to do anything though, I can't hear any better than the average person and I can be a little clumsy I guess." Shin shrugged. Least they were cute he figured. "The goop well, I figure that's from my mom. She's like, all goop. All the time." "K-koh?!" Shin cried it out along with a soft 'ping' sound of his forehead hitting the doorway. He'd of ducked if Slade wasn't in such a hurry. Grumbling as he was set down Shin went along with the plan regardless. Shin looked bewildered at the child's chosen name. Eggbert...why would he ever name his child Eggbert?? Did the kid have some kind of egg quirk? Shin would love his child regardless of how they looked but a name like that is just asking to be teased on the playground! Shin would never agree to name his kid that! Well, Shin would never be a wife also or a mom since he kind of didn't have the right equipment for that, he almost forgot that with how silly the name was. He cleared his throat and turned back to the old man with a forced grin and chuckle "Y-yes little baby Eggbert, my uh, my pride and joy. I call him my little sunny side up, you know like uh...sunshine? A-Anyway." The old timer seemed to be falling for it but didn't seem to suffer any damage from the scuffle. Shin held in a chuckle, puffing up his cheeks as he tried to keep himself from laughing at the thought of the massive Slade just getting his ass handed to him but this old fella. "S-snrk...Y-yes my...h..hehe, snrk. Husband is just no good in a fight, he's a big softie really." Shin said as he held a hand over his mouth to hide his expression. Or at least attempt to. The old man's reaction on feeling younger was enough to make the cat's eyes glint slightly, he figured that would interest him. "Yes yes, my quirk has special healing properties that will put a uh...pep in your step?" Was that lingo old people use? Regardless Shin produced more gel from his palms, turning to Slade as he mentioned the old man struggling to hear. Shin wasn't sure exactly what he meant but he got the hint. "Oh? I can help with that, here allow me." Shin walked over, the old man crouching down slightly so Shin could reach his head, gently cupping both sides Shin began to massage the gel in and around his ears. It wouldn't actually improve his hearing, but the old man would feel revitalized, though it'd make hearing difficult. "Don't worry, that'll pass when the gel dissolves!" Shin told him with a bit of a shout. "Oh. Oh that tingles. I think it's working!" he shouted back as he couldn't hear himself despite Shin's hearing being perfectly fine. The cat smiled and nodded, though he felt a slight tinge of guilt, this was better than either two getting physically harmed over something as meaningless as a jewl. This way no one was getting hurt, least that's what Shin told himself. |

"Huh. You sound luckier in the folks department than me," Slade declared as he placed the cat girl on his shoulder having received her answer regarding her abilities. Crossing his arms, the man surprisingly kept a smirk as he explained to Shin, "See, mine had a real pack mentality about things, so whoever was the strongest got to boss everyone around. Like I said, I was a runt for a while, so early years weren't all that fun, but I'll be damned if they weren't sorry when I burst outta my onesie! Haha! Never seen a family of five that scared of a six-year-old, but I guess I'd be a bit scared too thinkin bout all that payback. What about you doc? Shin don't sound like the average Canadian name, figure you've got yourself a story..." Ear throbbing and in the store, it looked like the coot was going for the scheme hook line and sinker, though Shin was having some trouble with something. Was it the name thing again? Damn it this gal was hard to please! Eggbert was a fantastic name, hell it was his middle name! He came from a long line of Eggberts, all who'd done amazing things on both the heroic and villainous sides, immensely respectable men, but it looked like dirt to Shin. If she didn't like it, then she shouldn't have caved then! Really, it made him sick to his stomach to think a mother would ever give her child a name she couldn't adore, least of all his own wife! What was worse, she was laughing at his folly against the old man again, the brute's face turning red as his cheeks puffed up and steam came from his nose. Really, the loss was bad enough, but she was acting like it was the greatest thing ever, barely able to get out a sentence! Well if he was such a "big softie"... "Oh, honey buns, you flatter me..." Slade declared, placing a hand on Shin's opposite shoulder, his teeth grinding together as he forced a giant smile and stated, "Why, I could just eat you up in three seconds flat, like a small biscuit. Hehehe..." That sorted, Slade got to work on the operation proper, glad that even if Shin took delight in his plight, the girl was quick on her feet and great at improv, earning him the cover he needed to go on with his next step. Leaning in closer to the panel, Slade said"Great work, hun buns!" Forgetting for a moment that they were actually not married with child, using his claws to wither away the main power line and rob the security measure of its most pivotal source. The device went on to release three, high-pitched whines as Slade once again thanked the heavens for Shin's distraction before dying out completely. Grinning, the giant then moved to the final step, spreading his claws and pressing them to the glass, twisting them in a circular fashion carefully, updating his accomplice as he near salivated, "Just a few more seconds..." As he did this, however, the old man's relaxed form found its eyes wondering, drifting to where the thief was crouching... |

Shin decided to put the conversation outside on hold as he wanted to warn Slade that he needed to duck or else Shin was going to get a face full of door frame. He didn't get the chance to but now that they were inside and Slade tossed Shin up as his wife for distraction Shin did not have the time to scold him. Though despite going along with his sudden plan that Slade tossed Shin into, despite Shin never agreeing! Slade seemed upset at Shin for not liking the name that sounded like it was a breakfast menu special in some old dinner. Shin felt like hissing at the other but that'd probably look suspicious or strange, so he kept his forced smile of a wife stuck in a dying marriage that she wanted out of. Despite being just a fake role he was playing in the moment. It was so ridiculous that Shin would forget it was all fake at times. Shin could feel his ears and tail stand up on end when they man began to turn away, his eyes drifting to Slade. Whatever the big guy was up to it was probably no good and if they were caught this time the police would likely get involved. Shin thought quickly and turned the man's head to face away, "O-oh your neck looks so, uh stiff! I can fix that for you!" Shin stammered out, having covered the man's ear with what he though was enough gel he moved his hand over his eyes and made a sort of gel mask, speaking loudly so the old man could hear. "That'll uh..help you relax! Yeah. Do uh, do you have a place to sit down? The massage will go better if you are seated and relaxed." Shin had no clue if that was true. He knew a decent amount of info on muscles and tension, but for medical reasons. He wasn't actually a masseur. Shin looked over at Slade and mouthed the words 'Hurry up!!' though if the other saw him he wasn't sure. "I have a chair in the back" he mumbled as it seemed whatever the hell Shin was doing was putting the man to sleep. Shin gently guided him to the his office where his chair was, trying to sit him down and finish putting him to sleep so they could get out. He'd probably not be back in this part of canada for awhile. He kept massaging gel into the old man's neck but felt his own thirst increasing, he hadn't had a drink or any jello in awhile and was using his quirk too much, he'd likely be unable to produce any more gel untill he got some more. Shin kept an ear out, listening for Slade to say something or give him a signal. If Slade just up and left Shin would be so pissed at him... |

"Patience is a virtue..." Slade mumbled back as he worked his way into the display case, peaking his eye out to see the cat leading the old man to the back of the room, the giant realizing that while Shin had one of those goodie two shoes auras around him, he really knew how to handle himself around a heist. Granted, Slade would have taken this chance to probably knock the geezer out, but it would have been equally satisfying to have the bastard wake up and realize he'd slept through a robbery. Snickering to himself, the man quickly changed expressions to one of confusion, staring at the glass case to find his claws were rightly stuck in the glass. Looking quizzically at the predicament, the brute simply shrugged to himself and increased force, his hand bulging a bit as his claws continued on their way, albeit a tad louder. Fortunately, the glass did give way as planned, a plop finding a circular cut out falling into Slade's hand, the man grinning once more as he reached in and pulled out the blue diamond, looking at it sparkle in his hand as he whispered, "Jackpot..." Now came the fun part: escaping. Getting up, the giant wondered over to the backroom, leaning in and declaring, "Well Old Timer, we've looked around all we can, but-" The man abruptly shut his lip, hearing a tiny snore coming from the chair before him. Lips sucked in, Slade kept his eyes on the prize, pocketing the diamond and stepping in closer, daintily lifting Shin by the collar with his thumb and index finger like one would a flower petal, entering stealth mode as he moved out of the room with his partner in crime and life, going so far as to avoid creaky floorboards. Slade stealth mode With Shin in hand, the wolf made zipping motions with his hand over his mouth, grabbing the bell on the door as he brought himself and Shin through, careful of the top this time. Gently, ever so gently, the man closed the door behind them, waiting for the ever so quiet click before he tucked Shin under his arm like a carper and booked it at top speed, ignoring all glances as he went block after block and stopping for no man or car. After blitzing across what must have been seven blocks, the giant came to a stop, wiping sweat from his brow before he set Shin down on his own two feet, leaning against a wall as he spoke. "Ya know... you're not the toughest out there... but you work well on the fly... I like the cut of your jib Shin, and if ya like, we should make this partner thing full time!" The man declared with a smile, hands on his sides, his expression quickly turning worried, however, as he went on to explain, "Uh... partners in crime that is. I know I'm a catch, but I ain't gonna marry no one I just met off the street, no matter how cute. Oh! And you probably want a cut as well!" Without waiting for a reply, Slade dug out the blue diamond, grinning as he placed it between his hands and tugged... and then tugged some more... and then some more, his face starting to turn a bit frustrated, as well as red as he went about pulling at two sides of a diamond, confused and irritated as to why it wasn't splitting. "Come... on!!! Hnngngngngh!" LP and Tech

Shin's hand slowed and stopped when he heard snoring. The old man was out it seemed, the plan would work easily now. He felt a little bad but hey, the old man would at least wake up feeling twenty years younger give or take. He would need that energy to be pissed over the robbery that happened under his nose. Shin was about to walk over to join Slade but it seemed he would not need to, the large man tip toeing over to him. "We should be good, I think he's out of i-" Slade was not listening it seemed, though...Shin was getting used to that already. The large man lifed Shin up by his collar like he was some kind of cat that was about to puke or something. Shin keeping himself stiff with his arms crossed an a very unamused expression as the man embarked on a unneeded sneak mission to escape. Shin kept silent the entire time as he could not believe how ridiculous this currently was. Slade at least made sure the bell did not ring as he opened the door, must be his expereince showing though he doubted the old man would wake up even if they dropped a heavy book in the room with him. Regardless they were out and now Slade tucked Shin under his arm like he was some kind of football. Shin kept his unhappy expression as he remained as stiff as a board while the other sprinting away. They looked suspicious as all hell to any passers but Slade did not seem to notice. Shin did not even bother attempting to get down or moving until Slade let him down, keeping his arms crossed the whole time. Slade seemed to repropose the idea of sticking together despite Shin suggesting it earlier, maybe he forgot or just liked the idea coming from himsellf better. Shin had a half frown, full judgemental expression but he doubted it would go noticed by Slade. "Sounds uh, like a great idea big guy why didn't I think of it." he replied with a roll of his eyes, nodding along. He had nowhere else to go, and heading straight home to do nothing seemed like a waste. He figured he would see more interesting things with Slade, interesting people. "What? Are you leaving me? What of Eggbert?" Shin asked, his voice filled to the brim with sarcasam. He held out a hand to stop him from splitting the gem. "Don't worry about it big fella, you hold on to the gem. I'm good." he told him with a pat to his arm. "Now we should probably get going, and going far away from here before the cops are looking for us." Shin hopped up on his shoulder like before, not wanting to walk. "Lead the way. Oh, stop and get me a bottle of water when you see one please." He told the other, pointing off in the distance to their next grand, dumb adventure. [Exit] |

"Course it's great! You might have some good brains, but remember you're within standing distance of the world's smartest man!" Slade declared with an enormous grin, tossing the gem between hands as he lavished in the faux praise given to him. The man actually had well and truly forgotten Shin's earlier recommendation to make their team-up permanent. The man's smile quickly dropped, however, when the girl brought up leaving Eggbert and their life of love and passion behind, Slade entering a thinking pose as the sarcasm seemed to be diluted by his thick skull, wondering if he really could do something like that. What if Shin's mother came after him? Or worse yet, their son was raised by her and became something horrid... like an orthodontist! About to take back his words, the man quickly snapped back to reality, snapping his fingers and pointing at the cat girl with a knowing smirk as if he'd just caught onto the world's most difficult to understand joke. From there, Slade went about attempting to break a diamond in half, the petite hand getting the man to stop the attempt, though he did nibble on the end of it, to no avail, as Shin spoke, barely even noticing her hop onto his shoulder. The giant was quick to cross his arms and shake his head with the declaration, "No can do, Doc. You did 50% of the work... well, 30% if we're being honest... so you get a portion of the cut, that's Slades motto!" The man said with a smile, thumb jammed into his chest before he took it upon himself to enter his thinking pose, talking out loud. "Or was it every Friday is Causal Friday? Eh, either way, thing's harder than it looks... But I think I know a guy who can up us out!" Standing triumphantly and pointing forward, Slade then decreed with a boisterous tone, "Get ready to head home, Doc! Cause you and I are gonna see a fish about a diamond! Also, do you want regular, or sparkling?!" Slade's smile and volume never dropped as he questioned the cat, stomping his way towards a most definitely strange and amazing adventure! And also the nearest corner store for some water and hotdogs! [Exit] |
