“Stein? Stein…who needs Stein?” He laughed again still looking at the ground
“Giriko…I want to save Giriko If I can save him maybe I can save myself, if I can cleanse him of his sins, if I can save him than maybe… I can die happy. But I cant die now, it has to wait. I have way to much to do”
He laughed, then clutched his own side, squeezing it as hard as he could, trying to keep reality in focus, her golden hair, her scowl, something, anything
“I dont want to hurt anyone else, I just want to save them. I want to save them from myself”“Obviously you’re not succeeding. Give me one damn good reason to spare you.”
“I need a…chance. just a chance…please”
He shook his head “no never mind…Ill just leave then”
@crushinghammermarie
“The clown…the clown tells me marie,” he was just rambling now, things that didnt make sense,
“And I am sorry, I am..” His fist tightened, he couldnt look at her anymore, he hung his head and turned up his music
“But if you give me a little time I might be able to save him”
He giggled again thinking of the chainsaw
“I might be able to make use of him”“You can’t have him!” She slammed him into another wall. “You can’t hurt another person, and I can’t let you go!” Stein- she had to save Stein from Justin- she couldn’t lose another-
“Stein? Stein…who needs Stein?” He laughed again still looking at the ground
“Giriko…I want to save Giriko If I can save him maybe I can save myself, if I can cleanse him of his sins, if I can save him than maybe… I can die happy. But I cant die now, it has to wait. I have way to much to do”

He accepted that sting, it was something he was expecting really. If he were in a sane state of mind, he probably would of never asked the questions he had just asked her. Would of never left the safety of the hotel room, or the chainsaws side.
His heart clenched, his words got stuck in his throat. But he had to continue explaining himself, even if the answer was no, even if it was always no, he needed to talk to someone that wasnt at the other end of a beer bottle.
“It just…tells me to do these things, it knows what the outcome would be and yet i still do them, and he laughs at me, youre all laughing at me Im sure. But I cant die yet Marie, theres still so much I have to do, theres still so much I have to make right.”
He paused and looked up into her eyes
“Killing me isnt going to bring him back”
He giggled a little, then shook his head
“Im sorry…”“What tells you to do these things? You’re making no sense!”
Her entire body tensed, and she fought the urge to be sick-. For him to lay out so clearly that Joe would never come back- and it was his fault.
Death, that laughter sounded Mad.
“No, you’re not.” She shook, furious. “No, you’re not!”

The slam of the door made him jump, what in deaths name was he doing, he was going to die tonight. He could feel it in his bones.
“t-thank you”
He took his hand back, and started walking, he didnt know where they were going but he figured that when he got to where his mind was taking him he would stop walking. and he was right. Why was the madness doing these things to his mind. He couldnt even focus on what he was doing here, why he was talking to maire, the clown just kept shouting at him to kill her. It was all he could hear over the music blaring in his ear
“Marie I wanted t—”
His hand grabbed his forehead, trying to drown out the noise
“Ask you…to let us go, just this once? I have my reasons,.. I cant go back to Shibusen, but i cant go back to Asura, but this pounding in my head…dear death this pounding in my head”“Why should I even consider that?” Her voice was flat, her fists clenched- anger pouring off of her in waves.
“I have no reason to trust you, you framed my meister- you killed J.B- and you want me to let you and the chainsaw go?!” Her flat palm cracked across his face.
He accepted that sting, it was something he was expecting really. If he were in a sane state of mind, he probably would of never asked the questions he had just asked her. Would of never left the safety of the hotel room, or the chainsaws side.

@crushinghammermarie
While the actions scared him to death, made him want to turn around and run the opposite direction, he remained calm on the outside.
He reached a gentle hand up and placed it on the one that was holding him to the wall.
“Miss Marie…Ill allow you to claim it another time…for now please just come with me..”
he looked into the room, wondering if Stein was going to come out
“and hear me out”“Do you seriously think I’d go-” Stein’s voice cut through.
“If he thinks he wants to talk to you, it’s not like he’ll escape you again. Maybe there’s a reason.” Stein spun, and shut the door.
“Fine.” Marie let him go forcefully and turned. “Let’s go, and don’t touch me again.”

He knew the hammer and her meister were after him. he knew that they were in the same town. And this fact terrified him he didnt want to die, he knew that Marie would kill him, he had to much left to do to submit to that fate. he knew that Marie had every right to kill him, and he would grant her that satisfaction later.
Right now he needed to convince her that he and Giriko should be allowed to live, even if he didnt believe it himself.
And before he knew it his feet were taking him to places he didnt even know of. But maybe his soul just searched out his friend. He stood in front of the hotel room, wondering if he should knock. His hand was frozen at his side. The two souls on the other side of the door frightened him. Maries usually gentle soul was teeming with the thought of revenge, while the other was just mad.
He swallowed hard, and raised a shaking hand, he knocked gently on the door.“-it’s not fair, it’s not just- what?!” She glared at the door, furious. Stein just watched her, unamused as she pulled the door open to-
“Justin-?” Her hand fell, her gold eye wide, and she froze in shock before lunging and pinning the young man to the opposite wall.
“Your soul will be mine.” Electricity crackled around them, and she clenched her fist in his collar.
