IF: One For All-Fiction

[Ahh... Why is it always the pretty ones?] Kumagawa lamented as he lifted his head off the desk.

"Murphy's Law I suppose." offered Anshin'in. "Bad luck seems to be a running theme for you anyway."

[And here I was hoping that I could actually do my good deed for the day. I was pretty preoccupied, what with the whole Villain attack.]

"Keep making as many excuses as you want. Who are you trying to convince? Others, or yourself?"

[... Anyway, you were complaining that I don't visit enough. Well, here I am. Is there something you wanted to talk about?]

"Since you were kind enough to ask, I was wondering if you'd humor me with the truth about what you're planning. I know for a fact it isn't as simple as you trying to become a Hero." the Not-Equal said with her usual smug tone.

Kumagawa let a smirk crawl across his lips. [Why, I have no idea what you're talking about.]

"Don't play smart with me. It doesn't suit your face." Anshin'in rebutted.

Giving a shrug, the Minus' smile returned to normal. [If you truly wanted to know, then we both know you have other ways of finding out. Nothing's stopping you from doing so.]

Anshin'in let out an amused huff. "True, but I wanted to hear it from you first. So, care to indulge me?"

[Sorry, but you'll have to wait a little while longer yet.] he said as he wagged his finger. [Though I will say this; when all is said and done, I won't be the only winner of this game.] making his way towards the exit, he cast one last glance over his shoulder at the Non-human. [I may have been reformed, but in the end I'm still Misogi Kumagawa, the perpetual loser who d.e.s.i.r.es to win. And in order for me to win, someone has to lose. It's just that this time, it will be the ones who never lost to begin with. So be sure to tune in and watch the show.]

As he left, Anshin'in smirked. "I'm looking forward to it." she then cast her glance towards the window. "He always has a way to make things interesting. You can't say that life is ever boring when he's around. Wouldn't you agree?"
