[Anyone passing by house #8 today will see an old man sitting in a nice wooden rocking chair, situated on the porch. He seems to be enjoying the weather. There may be clouds overhead, but it's still a nice temperature. His cane is leaning against the wall next to him. Anyone familiar with Yuan will recognize him, as it's hard to mistake that bright blue hair. It may have a few grey streaks, but aside from that it's barely changed.

Is he... sleeping? Sure looks like it. Then again, he may just be faking it.]

[As soon as Squalo comes within ten feet of Yuan, he'll open his eyes and immediately narrow them into a glare at the sight of that sword.]

You'd better put that thing away before you poke someone's eye out with it, kid.

[Holy fucking hell! Squalo very nearly takes a step back when the "corpse" comes alive, but he doesn't...not really. He focuses on returning the glare. He's not so fond of being admonished.]

VOI! You say it like it'd be an accident, old man.

[fortunefail]

It may be an accident, but it wouldn't be my eye suffering the damage. Now get off my porch!

[A seemingly frail old man, yet still as arrogant as ever. Yyyup, some things never change.]

[torrenziale.livejournal.com]

HAHAHAHA!

That right, old man? Careful you don't strain something.

[fortunefail]

I'll strain your something, if you don't hold your tongue! [He's getting up from his chair, oh dear!]

[torrenziale.livejournal.com]

Yeah? Should I move closer so you can try?

[fortunefail]

No need for that.

[He raises a hand towards Squalo and sparks of lightning course between his fingers, quickly forming a glowing orb. That thing could electrocute someone quite badly.]

[torrenziale.livejournal.com]

[...oh. Well. That's not good. Squalo keeps a close eye on that orb, but doesn't move just yet. He's immediately suspicious about Yuan's talents.]

Voooii, how the hell do you have the sky flame?

[fortunefail]

Sky flame? Don't be stupid. This is half-elven magic and it's perfectly capable of teaching you a lesson or two.
