002 Acts of Kindness
Characters: Darres & Anyone
Setting: Floor 3 (Library), 10 (Aquarium), 19 (Sec. Library)
Format: Either
Summary: Darres is going about some of his usual routines around the tower.
Warnings: None?
[Floor 3 (Library)]
[Darres was in here for the same reason he always came to this floor. The knight was in search for some decent, non-dark story books to read to Quark. The knight was even more protective of the child than he use to be. Having the kid die in his arms, anyone would become more caring of another. While death was not permanent here, it still pang him that he wasn't able to prevent it. The best he could do was try to keep the kid from slipping into the darkness that the tower taunted its residents with. This round, Darres was in search of particularly happy stories he could read to Quark. He could be found around the library collecting books.]
[Floor 10 (Aquarium)]
[The aquarium was more therapeutic for the knight than anything. He was continually rattled as his stay here grew longer. Back home he wasn't quite so useless as he was finding himself to be here. He wanted to save those who wanted it. Darres wants to help those who couldn't help themselves, but he was finding it to be rather difficult with how he was thwarted.
The knight was peacefully stationed in part of the aquarium where the fish roamed freely. Jumping from tank to tank and going about their business as if he wasn't here. There was a certain beauty to them that he found to be soothing. It was a nice break from the chaos that constantly plagued the tower. He himself was almost at peace?]
[Floor 19 (Second Library)]
[Darres decided it was time he really buckled down and hit the books to better his knowledge of things outside of his world. He wasn't sure how long he was going to be away from it, and as far as he was concerned, knowledge was a useful tool in various situations. The knight was diligently digging through the science portion of the library trying to better himself in the science field. From what he's gathered, the tower was full of this theme.]

no subject
She genuinely cares for others, and you're no exception. [This was obvious.] It's her nature to be that way.
[Darres sighed softly. The other could resist all he wanted, if he was, but Ishtar will always be Ishtar. Unless deterred, she was unlikely to leave Sephiroth be. Darres knew this and so it was yet another person to his list who he would look after and even go as far as protecting him for the sake of never having to see Ishtar cry again. He never wanted to see her cry.]
no subject
Though...allies are few and far between in the Tower. Sephiroth wonders if it really did him any harm to have someone who 'cared', despite his natural overblown suspicions surrounding the motives behind it. Ishtar has seen him at his best, at his worst and still she has been this unmovable wall of support that he hasn't even asked for. Such naivete could prove useful-]
I will not be held responsible for anything she chooses to meddle in. You play with fire, you get burned. I am not one to be 'cared' over.
[The man gets out of his seat and draws himself up to his full height. Leather and silver hair falling exactly into place as they should without even needing a smooth-down. An undefinable glint in his gleaming eyes as judges Darres' response.]
