I just smile to Roxas, ''Thank you and that may actually be a good thing that we don't know each other well." Then flicker my eyes around the group once more. "I would like volunteer to infiltrate as well, but, if we could, a couple more people may be useful..."
Inside my head I work out the kinks in my plan, sitauting people in my head. Keeping Aqua and Shizuo together, she can keep him level headed. I think Neku and Vaan would work together well. Shiki and...
And so on it goes, circling itself as I wait for more communication, calculating people and placing them slowly together.

Sini stands and places his hands on the table, "So... Let me get this straight... Blondies can get in on the action short of- " He jerks his head in the direction of Shizuo- "And the rest of us are gonna be staking out the loading docks of... All-Mart?"
He looks around the group before realizing his point was lost somewhere between him standing up and him opening his mouth, "Err... What I'm saying is that what if there are people whom would be more useful at this job...? Take Dori for instance... He can cloak himself in darkness and pretty much stalk anybody!"
By now Aqua has heard quite enough and reaches around Shiki to grab her son's back belt loop. She, gently, but swiftly pulls him back down to sitting, "Though he is correct... His brother and him are barely being allowed to stake out. That. Is. All. They're. Doing." She shoots Sininen a look that probably has frozen hell for a split second before. Her son glares back with a look that was the reason hell unfroze.
Midori sighs, "Ma, Sini... Take it outside." He pushes some hair behind and ear, eyes flickering around the group. "I work best with my twin... But I am willing to work with... her." He points at Sophie before slumping into his chair and turning a bored gaze at the ceiling.

Shiki looked between the son and mother, feeling awkward sitting between the family feud. Wondering if she should move or not she slid down a bit in her seat, glancing at the two in case she actually had to get up.
Looking away from it she said, "I'll work with whoever, it doesn't matter to me." She shrugged, most people she could get along with. But she'd do what was asked of her, no reason to make it difficult.

"Alright, that helps with the set up... Oh... Who all is in this again?" My brain switching through people again and shifting them.
Midori with that girl. Shiki with... Izzy was that his name? Sini with the boy who suggested stake outs... Me and Lea... UGH!
IS THAT EVERYONE OR NOT?
Oh... Ashe and her boyfriend, they obviously work well together...
Now is that everyone...?
Roxas and Riku... No! No...
Me and Roxas. Lea and Riku?
Yeah, that'll work...
Am I missing anybody?
My eyes flick around the group.
I don't even know anymore.
Don't panic.
Don't panic.
I'm panicking!

I put a hand on Nami's shoulder. Relax. Just looking at you is making me tense. I smiled at her. "I like her suggestion, too. People who stand out too much can stake out or just observe, the people less likely to be immediately recognized start looking for info and trying to infiltrate the bad guys. It'd be best if newer members did the infiltrating, since we don't want them realizing they're onto us, and we have no clue how much they know about our structure. Right, Izzy?"
He nodded at me. "If they were in the files, they know pretty much everything, but it all depends on where in the files they were. I'd say it's risky, but it's the best plan we've got so far."

Ashe raised her hand, "Neku, you said something about Vaan being known by the Dovahkiin, perhaps he should sit this mission out."
Vaan's eyes widened as Ashe said that, he turned to her. Mikhail nodded.
"Perhaps that is best too, they may recognize Vaan...perhaps he should stay here and-"
"LIKE HELL I WILL!" Vaan shouted, standing up, Ashe turned to him in surprise and he noticed how angry he sounded, he pulled himself back and said. "Just because they know who I am doesn't mean I...well...I can do something! I am not useless!"

I can do something! I am not useless!
Something in me sparked and I glare in Ashe's direction, "He has a point, I'm sure we can find some way he can help."
Useless.
Its like whenever Neku got so angry he was cold, like that, only difference is that its worse than rage and fury... Its something darker than anything I've ever felt... And I'm directing it at Ashe through my glare.
"But the final verdict does belong to Neku," I ground out this sentence as I snap my gaze away.
No one deserves to feel useless! Stupid woman! How DARE SHE.

Ashe gave a look at Namine, "Something you need to consider, and it has nothing to do with his ability. Its the fact that the enemy KNOWS him, by name even as Neku pointed out earlier they called him a weapon. If he joins us on the stakeout they may run on sight of him, same with myself and Mikhail - they know us."
Vaan grimaced, she was right about that part...it was clear they knew him, even she admitted she could not take part in it because they would know her too.

Aqua stops her glaring at her son to turn her attention back to the group, her eyes narrowed as an assault of pure fury comes slamming into her from Namine. She watches as the blond tenses, her shoulders hunching and teeth gritting. But, just as suddenly as she looks like she's about to burst her gaze becomes a very calmed yellow. The LeBeau girl smiles at Ashe, "Well then, why don't you three make yourselves useful doing paperwork or something akin to it? Especially seeing how you feel that you'll be so much trouble." Her words sound cheerful, sickeningly cheerful to the mother's ears. "Unless you prefer to be placed someplace else." At the word placed Aqua felt an over whelming urge to stab and drain something of blood, Namine has finally snapped again she sees.
Sighing, Aqua flashes a look over at Midori, alerting him and letting him know that something may be about to go down. But other than that she just waits, patiently as her fighting partner's emotions crash into her like ocean's waves breaking on heavy rock.

Anger.
It flooded through me, through the room. I tightened my grip on Namine's shoulder, not just to snap her out of it but also for support. It battered at the walls in my head, the ones Izaya had erected out of crystal strands. I could feel them straining, inside and out.
Namine! I called out. Namine, stop it!
I had to fight to keep anyhting from showing on my face - luckily, I was good at that.
"Now, Nami, calm down," I heard Lea say. "They are right, and there's nothing to be angry about - just the way things are. We need some people to help with coordination since you're the only Coordinator, and you'll be out there working in the field, right?"
He looked at me, met y eyes. He must've seen how bad a shape I was in because he shook his head. "Rotten time for a migraine, Boss?" There was a question there; I gave a quick nod. "Why don't you take Neku to the other room for a sec, Nami? A few minutes and he should be feeling better."

Paperwork?! Vaan thought inwardly, honestly Ashe and now Namine's current statement made he feel betrayed in a way. All he done for them and they want him to sit out (Ashe) and do tasks that didn't mean anything (Namine)? He wasn't even a MEMBER of the Network! He had just about enough of being told what to do, he stood up from his spot and hightailed it right out of the Veil.
"Vaan? Vaan!" Ashe called out, taking the time to give Namine a proper glare she moved past her outside - after Vaan. Who when stepped out took a quick left down the alley and kept going - hoping he lost Ashe and the others. The All-Mart huh, there were other ways of going in other than a stakeout.

Namine!
I glare at Ashe, feeling a soft sound building in back of mind, almost as if to drown out all other noises. I can feel myself beginning to cut off from Neku. Everything in me sings with the soft beat, almost like the one I often time hum, but this one is corrupted.
Go on.
I want to.
You have the weapon, use it.
Like a sick voice whispering in my ear I can feel it sink into me, the anger and the resentment... It balls together and slowly begins to build and twist into something different.
Namine, stop it!
Stupid noise, don't listen to it.
My gaze slowly rolls to the hand on my shoulder, another emotion building up next to the twisted one, this one known as love. But its true love, the kind you only get when you'll do anything, be anything for this person. It makes my senses flair as my gaze drifts back towards the person faking calmness.
I can feel him.
I can feel him so close.
One taste won't hurt, will it?
No it--
"Now, Nami, calm down," A voice speaks and I snap my gaze onto a red head, I've always enjoyed red heads. And my head tilts to the side as I listen to his words, so much stronger and closer than anything the fake could of said to me. "They are right, and there's nothing to be angry about - just the way things are. We need some people to help with coordination since you're the only Coordinator, and you'll be out there working in the field, right?"
I raise one brow, I can tell he's talking with me, but I see no use in the words he's speaking. So I just smile at him, its not twisted, not like the emotions I'm weaving through.
Heh. Still think those people are irrelevant...? Preventing satisfaction. Stopping completion, cruel they are.
Ah, yes... I see that now...
The red head's gaze drifts past me and I can feel the beat pick up, angry.
Mine...
Mine to own...
To dominate.
"Rotten time for a migraine, Boss?"
I flash a glance back at him, whining softly before hearing the red head speak again.
"Why don't you take Neku to the other room for a sec, Nami? A few minutes and he should be feeling better."
I pause.
This could be perfect.
Completion... Whole... Mine...
Agree.
I laugh softly, it sounds deranged to even my ears, "I will... Lea..." And I wrap an arm around... Neku's... waist. "... Don't do anything stupid while we're gone, loves." And as I walk... Neku... Past... Lea.... I flash him a look, a challenge, daring him to step up like that ever again. And then...
I see her.
I freeze.
Then smile again and wave to Shiki, "We'll be back out soon dearest love." And then I turn my attention to Neku as I drag us into the backroom.
Stopping once more I watch Vaan leave and roll my eyes at Ashe. Its her fault, not mine, what do I care. And I shut the door to separate us from them them. Stupid and cruel beings they are.
Except Shiki.
Yes, except her...

It hurts. It's like the emotion is being taken and thrown at me as a weapon, it hurts more because I shouldn't be able to feel it. Even my body knows that my power only works on the mind, not the heart.
My ind is exploding. Migraine? Yeah, Lea was right. Rotten time for one, too.
"Nami... please... calm down..."
She's only making it worse. Even wrose, I need her, I need her to be stable for me, but she's not there anymore...
I shouldn't have to rely on others! I try to put my anger against the pain but the pain wins.
What's wrong...? Nami, please!

"Nami... please... calm down..."
I regard him cautiously as he speaks, pain rolling back from him, but not touching me, I know true pain... This is not it... Pain is when you love something so much it hurts, it hurts, its hurts.
He's hurting me.
And you're hurting him.
I must control that.
Yes, dominate that.
"... Heh..."
What's wrong...? Nami, please!
"...Neku..." My gaze flickers around the room, the name causing the music to pick up again, but this time the beats are wild. "What is wrong he asks."
Slowly I reach out to him, guide him to a place to sit and shove him down onto it, "Please he begs."
Laughter.
Mine to own.
Yours to feel.
Yours to taste.
"Petty, stupid, useless, love~" I lean down so my face is only an inch from his. "You always want in, you always want to know who I am, what's wrong... For once... See me as I am." My eyes close and then open [one eye a luminous green and the other a metallic gold].
"... You helped make me after all... And now... I'm going to make you mine."
