His or Her Own Circumstances [Kotoha]

"Thank you for your kind patronage, do come again!" The vendor thanked; handing Shun his two-scooped ice cream--simply because one scoop wasn't enough to satisfy the beast inside. Shun chuckled, giving the vendor a bit of a wave that said 'your welcome' before walking away with his cone in his hand.

"Not bad at all." Shun chuckled, licking the cone a few times. The flavor of cookie dough ice cream was amazing, even better with the combination of a scoop of brownie flavored ice cream on top of it. It was enough to make his taste-buds go nuts.

Shun in the middle of his bliss, continued to enjoy the sweet treat. Not aware that even in the middle of a place like this, disaster could strike. Unfortunately for Shun, it would. Taking a step forward--he felt his foot crush something, like a stick or something. Shun's eyes snapped open, but as they did he found himself falling forward--

"What the hell?!" He exclaimed as the ice cream flew from his hand as he slammed his face into the pavement of the ground, busting his nose and scraping his left knee up in the process. Shun let out a sharp groan of pain, as his ice cream had most unfortunately flown and landed not far if not in front of Kotoha.

Shun pushed himself onto his hands and knees. Coughing some, he cursed a long string of swears under his breath as he looked up to find a woman approach him. He slowly registered the fact that she was concerned with his well-being, "I'm... I'm fine." He looked away as he replied. Getting onto his feet--or attempting too--before he felt the surge of pain in his left knee, cursing out with "Shit!" as he staggered and fell onto his right knee for a moment.

Shun bit his lip as he looked at his knee, he had scraped it pretty badly. Even more so, he didn't even notice the fact his nose was bleeding either. What an embarrassing way to appear before a stranger--even worst a woman.

"No no... I'm fine." He tried to tell her, he looked at his knee, the bleeding having already begun to slow down. One of the perks to having Gills was he had a bit of an advanced regeneration rate--it wasn't instantaneous but it was still a considerable difference then a normal person's. He then looked back at the woman, "Still, thanks for the concern." He tried to tell her. Feeling something wet under his nose, he figured it blood. "Er... You wouldn't happen to have a handkerchief or a tissue, would 'ya?" he asked, laughing timidly.

He smiled, "Arigatou." He thanked before taking the handkerchief and using it to wipe his nose--turning away as he did so. He hadn't snapped his nose out of place or anything, thank god for that, he was already feeling a sharp enough sting of pain from the knee. "G-gah, stings like a fucker..." He grumbled underneath his breath.

Noticing though he had bloodied the handkerchief, he couldn't help but frown. "Ah uh, Miss-chan, I've kind of... bloodied this thing. I could go find somewhere to wash it off if you'd like." He said, using his pet name of 'Miss-chan' for her, a strange pet name.

"Thank you but, I've experienced worst. I'll be fine. Besides, I'd feel awfully bad if I took anymore time out of your day already, I'm sure a cute girl like you has better places to be." Shun rubbed the back of his head laughing.

Shun perked, noticing that hint of sadness in her voice. He grew good at detecting these kinds of things, having been that kind of guy growing up who had thrown himself aside for the sake of others. He was about to open his mouth to say something when he heard yelling--looking over his shoulder he saw that the gang he had beat up earlier was approaching them.

"Oh, its these guys again--look, I've already kicked your guys' asses for the day. Just go on home." Shun turned, scratching his cheek with a sigh--although when they didn't say anything he perked. Opening an eye and looking at them he knew something was off. "...Wait..." He perked, 'Shit..!' he pieced two and two together, turning and grabbing Kotoha's hand.

"Well you do now, Miss-chan, c'mon..!" Shun took her by the hand and ran from the gang of men. The men just listlessly following after. Shun was unaware Kotoha could hold her own. Even so, Shun wouldn't want to go Gills infront of her.
