[attr="class","saschaunshifted"] At the lake, reflective like a mirror, where the moon would ride its slight waves to the shore, a single sole sits, his heart calm, content to be slightly forlorn. The wind's song pushes through lillies, then sweeps high to clear over the reeds, and over the bulrushes, swaying, to pluck at the man's heartstrings.
The beauty of the mirror lake always seemed to calm to brawlers ever angry self.
Sitting quietly at the shore, he would hesitantly pick a flower, afraid that this one bit of scenery would disrupt the entirety of the lake’s atmosphere. To his luck, the flower had no such impact and was simply a flower. Smiling calmly, the brawler would take a seat at the lakes edge, slowly lowering himself to lie down in the grass. Taking a sniff of the digital flower, as it slowly started to disperse into the air, the man would let out a gentle sigh.
Nothing could ruin this tranquility.

Ah... Nothing breaks a good silence like a crazy girl with a cannibalism problem. The barefoot menace casually strode her way up to the lake, walking a few steps into the shallow water. Leaning down, she rolled up her pant legs to her knees, since the water had risen up to about half way up her shins.
"It's as if I'm drowning you, lefty and righty." The Cannibal grinned, showing her sharp, fierce looking teeth, as she tilted her head towards her feet. "But you'd like that, wouldn't you lefty? You suicidal psycho." And it was true, her left foot often found itself in the heat of things, often a little too close to danger. She spread her arms out wide, bringing her chest up to breathe in deep through her nose, inhaling the wonderful scents of her surroundings.
"Whoa!" Akeno jumped as if frightened, causing the water to splash around her feet. She turned to face the figure sitting solemn at the water's edge, not too far from herself. "I didn't notice you there! Hey! How ya going?" She raised her right hand, waving exuberantly in greeting.

[attr="class","saschaunshifted"] The not so distant sound of splashing had caught the man's attention and to his surprise, it wasn't some digital animal, fish or mammal. It was either what could be described as an NPC or a player; but usually NPCs aren't as… odd as this one. No, this had to be a player.
Sitting up to get a better look, he would overhear her talking to herself? No, it was her feet? Why was she talking to her feet as if they were people. Staring at her longer than he meant to, he would meet her eyes with his own, his gaze unwavering.
Giving a slight smile, he’d wave at the odd woman, “Hello, don’t really see many people around here that often. Did you come here to talk to your feet in private? Because if you did you can just act like I’m not here.”
The brawler was in a pleasant mood today, there weren't any battles to be fought, no quest to be done, no items to be bought, nope, it was just a really calming day. He felt that talking to this person would be just as pleasant as the day had been going, or held out hope it would at least.

The girl chuckled for a moment, looking down at her feet as they lurked beneath the water. For a moment, she didn't seem so insane. Then, she reached back, pulling her knife out and raising her left knee up. Her left foot out of the water, she pointed the knife at it, furrowing her brow.
"Hush, you." Giving a final unhappy glance to her 'lefty', as she often called it, Akeno lowered her foot back into the water, before looking back up to the fellow human in her presence. "Nah, don't really matter to me if it's private or not." Casually leaning her head back, The Cannibal flung her knife in the air carelessly. She took a deep breath, before allowing her eyes to trace after it, then taking a few steps left in order to catch it.
Not so heroic in her mannerisms, as usual, the girl caught the knife incorrectly, causing the blade to stumble out of her hand. With a quiet, displeased yelp, she cradled her right palm in her left hand, looking down at the knife as it lay on the shallow floor. Silently, she knelt down to pick it up. Not the smartest lass in the world.

[attr="class","saschaunshifted"] He had some speculation about the girl at first, because she seemed kinda weird, talking to her feet and all. But he shrugged that off considering people talk to themselves all the time when people aren't looking, or just think out loud, it's pretty common after all. But when she pulled a knife on her foot, he knew that for a face, this chick is crazy, grade A crazy at that.
Thinking about the situation, his mind would set on the face that he was going to have a good day and not let anyone ruin it. So, looking at the girl as she juggled her knife and subsequently dropped it, he would at least try to converse with the vexing girl.
"You, uh, you aren't all there in the head are you?" He didn't really mean to come off as rude, but he was genuinely curious as to what her answer or actions would be from the question.

After one quiet, disappointed, parental threat to her left foot later, her diction and energy seemed to take a drastic shift back to normal. Or, at least as normal as she got. Carefully returning her knife into her bag, she took a deep breath, a sharp toothed grin on her face.
"Aren't too right? Well, I'm just fine!" The Cannibal responded, with a chuckle. She turned her unhinged gaze towards the calmness that sat at the water's edge. "It's lefty and right palmy that are the crazy ones. Trying to get the rest of us killed!" And, well, from her perspective, it was true enough. Though, to any other person, it probably just sounded like a meaningless dribble of insanity.
"We're all friends though. And how about you? Your mind intact?" In an almost haunting way, she punctuated the syllables of the last word she spoke rather harshly, as if a blatant hint towards the signs of a rather... Malformed mental status. Needless to say, her mindset kept her rather entertained, that creepy smile reaching across her face only fading briefly from time to time.

[attr="class","saschaunshifted"] Taking note of the sharpness of her teeth, the brawler would quietly listen, his gaze averting from her eyes to the sharp teeth that filled her mouth, the unusualness of them kind of bothering him more than anything.
He'd wonder if it was just her class that made her teeth sharp or if this girl was really just this strange in real life. The characters are an almost carbon copy of the user themselves after all, and this one's personality is a bit strange. It wouldn't be so hard to image that this girl could really be that estranged in real life.
As she finished speaking, the man would sort of shift in his seat, looking her up and down a bit before answering. "I'm as sane as anyone can be in this world. But it looks like that differs from person to person, as so plainly shown by you." He'd bite his tongue a bit, letting the last part slip out and quickly try to change the subject as to not incur this crazy girl's wrath. Quickly spurting out, "So what brings you around here?" the man would give the girl a slight smile, trying to maintain a friendly appearance.

"I'm not crazy!" She responded quickly and loudly, casually bringing a hand back to bring her slingshot from her bag. Idly, she notched a pebble, shooting it straight up and knocking a bird out of the sky. Falling into the water, it splashed beside her. As she picked it up, she took a bite of the wing... And spit it out. She learned at that moment that she didn't like raw bird. "I'm just very hungry." And that statement was somewhat true. A decent bit of her insanity WAS hunger driven.
"Anyways, I just wander. Wander around. Don't really know my way, but I figure it out as I go along!" The Cannibal responded with a shrug, putting her slingshot back. "Looking for food, money, adventure, friends... Whatever's I come upon, ya know?" She chuckled, glaring back with a thoughtless nod and smirk. If she wasn't so eerie, perhaps she could be friendly.
Then, her gaze shifted quickly towards the water, as if distracted. A fish had swam by her, and her hand reaching down after it created a splash, but hadn't caught the thing. Then, it shot by her other side, as if taunting her, just out of her reach. "Mean fish! Get back here!" She splashed about foolishly. In this moment, she could almost look as harmless as a little girl, splashing about in the water.

[attr="class","saschaunshifted"] As she had brought out a slingshot, the man would start to tense up, getting ready to do, well, whatever was necessary for the girl not to attack him or the shot to miss, but remembered that he wasn't in battle and that this wasn't a pvp enabled area. He'd shift a bit before she had set her sights on something overhead and follow the bird down as it was hit. Staring at the girl with a confused and disgusted face as she took a bit out of the bird, he would watch her spit it out, the feathers turning to pixels as she did.
Shaking his head in disapprovement, the man would look back up at her as she spoke of wandering and expanded further on what she meant. At least that was something normal about her, it sort of put him further at ease.
Until she went right back to her previous mannerisms and started to chase a fish. From another person's perspective of course she would just look like an innocent person chasing a fish, but from what he's already see, this girl is just bonkers. He'd sigh and continuing to do his best at talking to the girl. "Why are you eating eat food? It'd be better to cook it at least. And there are much better ways of catching fish instead of splashing around grabbing at it with your hands."

"Get back here, little fishy!" She stomped around by her feet, The Cannibal splashing about frantically, as she tried to catch the evasive little creature beneath her foot. "Hah!" An almost triumphant moment, as she seemed to pin it for a moment to the Earthy floor beneath the shallow surface, before it's slimy outside allowed it to slip from her foot's grasp. "Argh, righty, you let it get away!"
"Eh, makes no difference to me whether it's cooked or not." She'd turn her gaze back up to the other guy, smiling politely with a shrug. "I've eaten a lot of stuff, and sometimes it's like a whole different food raw! Cooked a finger once, not as good as a raw finger, in my opinion at least."
There was a weirdness in how casual she was speaking on such subjects, but anyone who got to know Akeno long enough realized this was normal for her. Cannibalism wasn't some taboo thing to her, but a lifestyle that she felt no shame in expressing.
But still, no doubt about the fact that she was batshit.

[attr="class","saschaunshifted"] He'd let out a chuckle as the fish she was so persistent in catching suddenly slip from her foots grasp. Shaking his head as he chuckled he would just watch.
Until she spoke of eating fingers, that's when his look of of happiness turned into one of disgust. He'd give her a cringing look as continued to speak about it.
Shaking his head at the normalcy she showed as she spoke of it, the man would ponder for a bit. He saw that her class was cannibal, but maybe it was just something she acted like she did, getting into character and all that. But he'd never know unless he asked. So, gulping a bit he would finally spit out, "When you mean you ate a finger, do you mean you ate a finger here... right?" He'd sort of be on edge considering that this chick really was strange and crazy people often do crazy things.

"Eat fingers here? I don't think I've ever chowed a finger in this place.." The Cannibal turned to face him, and pointed at the ground. "Well, usually I don't come around here. In fact, I believe this is my first time being here... I think... Wait... Yeah, I think so." She'd nod, then shake her head, the nod again. Obviously, her mind was in some sort of shambles, finding it difficult to separate thoughts and memories around. A rather disorganized mind, she had. Disorganization she didn't often didn't hide very well either. "Haven't eaten a finger in a while though... It's been since..." She reached up to scratch her head. "Since --
She stopped suddenly, just before finishing her statement, looking down as she had felt the fish brush her foot. Suddenly scampering into the water, she fell down onto her hands and knees, splashing around in the shallow water, trying to find the fish that had already bolted from the scene.
"Fish taunts me. You are unkind, fish creature..." Akeno gave the water a dirty look as she rose back to her feet, before turning back again to the man at the water's edge. "What were we talking about again?"

[attr="class","saschaunshifted"] "Since when?"
He'd be cut short as the girl started to scuttle for the fish again. Wit h a sigh of disappointment he would only consider it a sign from above that this knowledge wasn't meant to be heard by his ears. Sighing he would wait until she had finished trying to catch the fish before he decided to do anything else.
With the girl coming to a stand, the brawler would would still be curious about the girl. There were still multiple things he had not known about her, but, she seemed too scatterbrained to really answer them clearly.
Even if he had the patience to try and get answers out of her it was beginning to the time for him to head in for the day.
So, with a sigh he would look over to her and give a slight smile and cross his arms. "Well, it was... interesting to talk to you. I'd hope we meet again."
Sending a friend request her way he would come to a stand and brush himself off, then begin to head out, "I gotta go, but I'll see ya when I see ya."

"It slithers like a snake, but has no venom..." She whispered, just before another leap onto her knees after that damn elusive fish. Splish sploshing all about all over the place, she managed to nearly catch the thing, before looking up to hear the solemn fellow speaking to her.
Then a friend request. Whoa! Akeno didn't see those very often! Many people didn't add her, due to the whole literally being insane thing. With a pleased, little applause, she reached a hand to hit the accept button on the notification. Another name, added to her less than bountiful list of friends.
"Thanks, pal! You too!" She raised a hand to wave goodbye, but suddenly flailed splashing into the water after the fish. "See ya another time! Thanks for not trying to kill me!" She shouted back to him, dashing from here to there in the water, disturbing whatever peace the place held before she had arrived.
