Welcome to Gaia! ::

Chara was a simple man. And that was meant with more than just a desire for the simple things in life.

No, the man was quite stupid, in his own right.

Memories gone, incredible power in his hand, and no real drive or focus to do anything with it!

There were no goals he had in mind, no particularly tragic backstory to unfold, or anything bland and outrageous he needed to cope with. Nope, he was Simply Chara, or Coconinoite, or Theo, there, bored, and more than a little irritated at the fact that he WAS So incredibly bored.

That's not to say that his general queen didn't try to keep him entertained. Being part of the Special Ops branch gave him more than his fill of missions. People to hunt, people to kill, plans, operations, all were open to him, of course but... After work, what?

He returned to his barracks room and just kinda stared at the ceiling.

It was for that reason why Hessonite gifted him without actually calling it a gift, a sweet little kitten named Chip.

Chip was... Unique. A cute, kinda gullible kitten, and one that seemed to have a vast lack of common sense. Of course a kitten shouldn't be dragged into battle, no matter HOW adorably prepared he was, with his little laser and random assortment of debatable useful tools!

What kind of absolutely horrendous monster would do that to HIS Chip?!

Luckily (and perhaps with no forethought on Chip's part), he had a name and a file, and it was as simple as getting to an open training ground, finding a collapsed column to sit on, daintly crossing his legs and resting his elbow against them (A weak attempt to look intimidating), and a snap of the fingers.

Then before him was the Lieutenant, and Chara maliciously grinned. At least these Negaverse powers had some cool perks.

"So you're Tetra... something something..."

The file did touch up on Tetra's physique but he wasn't expecting all of this. Broad shoulders, tall as hell, and even that nice hot dad vibe coming from him.

Chara certainly found this entertaining at the very least.

"Tetra." That was perfectly good enough, and the Eternal could not be bothered to try any more. This wasn't a fun engagement they were aiming for, but a punishment.

"I summoned you here because a little kitten told me you took him careening into battle. Is that so?" He didn't shift from where he sat, only leaning forward just a little bit. to get a better look at the man before him.

"What would possess you to take such a vulnerable little thing into a potentially deadly situation, hmm?"

"Hm... I see." All in all, it made sense why Tetrahedrite did what he did. Even Chara with his stubbornness could see that keeping Chip close, rather than telling him to run away was a good idea, and likely the best course of action.

But he didn't want to be reasonable. And he didn't want to simply forgive the Lieutenant.

What fun would that be, giving up control so quickly?

"You could have sent him up a tree, I highly doubt there would have been some sort of senshi out there that would hurt a kitten like him. No, I'm more concerned you'd bring something so small and, quite frankly, stupid into such a situation." He stood, taking his time to walk up properly too the man, then his frown deepened.

How dare this man stand so highly above him?

It took only a little bit of his strength to pull Tetra down by the front of his shirt to properly meet him eye-to-eye. While typically Officers were far stronger than Senshi in the Negaverse, there was still two ranks between them, plenty for Chara to show off just how much stronger he really was.

"You could have stepped on him, or crushed his tiny bones to dust while romping around with some stupid senshi. Did that thought never cross your mind, hmm? Perhaps you are far more careless thank you think. While I was feeling generous, I think you should get on your knees and beg for forgiveness for having risked my little Kitten's life so recklessly. " He let go of Tetrahedrite's collar, and grinned more than a little maliciously. "Go on then, on your knees and beg me to forgive you, or else I'll show you just how horribly hurt Chip could have gotten by using you as an example."

Chara's eye visibly twitched at the audacity this man had to address him.

It was irritating, and so highly disrespectful he could barely contain his rage!

And yet, with respect he did. He could talk and talk and talk, but it seemed only action would reach through this Lieutenant's thickass skull and have him accept what he did was wrong.

Softly, he muttered his attack name, letting the bubbling chocolate form in his hand, before grabbing the man's uniform once again and smearing it thickly as close to his neck without actually making contact with his skin.

"I don't know who the <********> you think you are, but regardless of whether or not I'm your direct superior, the Negaverse doesn't work like whatever bullshit human-world military. If someone is stronger than you, you ******** listen" This time, he didn't let the man pull away from his grasp, and flicked more of the chocolate from his fingertips towards the man's face, leaving little speckled spots behind.

"Unjust? There's no ******** justice here. I say you were wrong, and you were. Now apologize, before your face gets melted off!"

"A resource? You're wrong once again, Tetrahedrite." Chara's grip did not lessen, and to emphasize the fact that he was not yet pleased with Tetra's response, a chocolate-coated finger was pressed to his cheek and held there. The sweet smell of chocolate rightly hid the smell of burning flesh.

"Chip is a friend, and it is dickish of you to think of a kitten like that as anything else! Do you know how easy it is to snap something like him in half? Would you do that to a friend? Would you let some a*****e White Moon b*****d do that to some helpless, sweet little kitten?" He dragged his finger across the man's cheek, further down, leaving burns in its wake.

Part of him wanted Tetra to lash out, to try to defend himself from this. It'd be absolutely entertaining to pull his starseed out after that and watch him flail about helplessly.

"I've half a mind to go get Chip myself, so he can get a proper apology out of you too."

Yes... yes most impressive, watching this man struggle without so much as a whimper. His voice was a little telling, but he could still be entertained by it all.

"Hmm... You're right. I think I will. Unfortunately, he's currently preoccupied at the moment," whether that was true or not, he couldn't say, "so I think we'll ask him about it later."

Out of nothing short of kindness, Chara let the lieutenant go, and then so very kindly used the end of his sleeve to wipe off the remaining chocolate from his skin, though it was clearly useless to do so since a few seconds later it simply vanished.

Oh well, it was the thought that counted anyway.

"I think this may call for an actual outing for the three of us. Then you can show me how well you can protect my kitten, and then you can be trusted to handle him further. Who knows, perhaps I'll even apologize for thinking you so incompetent. How's that sound, hmm?"

"You know you don't have to be so cold. You admitted you were wrong, took your punishment well, and I am satisfied. It's not as if I'm gonna kill you or anything. Can you imagine the paperwork?" Why did the Negaverse even need paperwork in the first place? Are they really gonna keep records of who was killing what? Why did it even matter?

There were many things he didn't get, even more so since he just couldn't remember them but... Maybe this was a good opportunity to fix that.

"Hmm... I'll think up a time that works and forward it to you. Then you'll know when and where to be without having to freak out about sudden summoning s**t. If you do well, I think I might even make you my own. Yes, I think I'd like that." Chara grinned, almost maliciously, but there was nothing really awful behind it. Sometimes his face only came off as nasty.

"Oh, and bring a snack for Chip when we go out. Cookies work great."

“Cookie, candy, chocolate, perhaps a bit of cake. He’s a precious little thing and should be treated as such, remember that.” Even now Chara was thinking about sweets himself, and gathering Chip in his arms and taking him to a bakery for a real heist.

Perhaps later tonight.

“Well, I am done, here, as are you, so go take care of your face, and then I’ll take you back to the city.”
