[Aburame Azarea]

The Devil That You Forgot

Choices

"You don't have a say in what becomes of you going forward?" Azarea questions her voice soft. Perhaps she had misheard or misunderstood. Shinobi after all were the tools of their Kage and regards of what 294 was they were no different in this, but... the Kage would at times take into account their shinobi's preferences and at the end of the day the men and women who served them were just that. Men and women with their own thoughts and needs. Emotionless tools after all could be easily turned against their wielders. A topic Azarea had covered not all too long ago.

"If you do... I believe it would be interesting to work together going forward at some point. You are a curious individual," She explains as she offers the man a slim smile careful not to show her teeth, "And I mean that in a good way." The Kumo nin clarifies with a soft chuckle.

Joō no Taikanshiki no Regaria [Queen's Coronation Regalia]
A mutated variant of the Aburame clans Yūdai no Omorejō ["Bewildering Grandeur of the Alpha"] resulting from the subsequent poisoning of Azarea's former Yūdai no Omorejō hive to prevent potential hijutsu theft. While the Joō no Taikanshiki no Regaria lacks the Yūdai no Omorejō size instead Azarea's hive has maintained the ability to produce alpha pheromones and commanding vibrations. Evolving instead to hyperspecialize in these two aspects allowing them to produce pheramones and vibrations strong enough to be detected by human hearing and sense of smell.

Reigning Chakra Control
Fine tuning her chakra control to a razor's edge Azarea is capable of performing delicate techniques with minimal to no wastage of chakra. Allowing her to conserve her reserves in prolonged combat and managed more finickity techniques and jutsu.

Kagura Mind's Eye
Born with a natural affinity towards sensing chakra like her Father before her Azarea has trained herself to become a capable sensory shinobi. Unlocking the Kagura's Mind's Eye, and with it, the ability to passively sense chakra signatures in the distance (when using the technique), thus allowing her to not only track, but also memorize a person's chakra signature, even if barely any chakra is being used. Due to her proficiency with this technique, Azarea can currently passively sense chakra up to 500 meters and actively at 2.5 kilometers.

Aburame Azarea , 294

Zakku thought briefly about telling Azarea straight out what 294 was but the memory of her playing dumb was still fresh in his mind.  "We may have to schedule a training session with you sometime.  Training with someone of your reputation and skill doesn't happen very often for us."  The blue haired chunin couldn't help but smile.  Training with a legend or even accompanying them on a mission would be a great way for him to learn a few new techniques or even new ideas to help his own needs.  

"Though I may ask for your assistance in the future.  So don't be surprised if you hear I've requested you dude."  Having 294 to back him up or even have him watch over Ayukawa for a bit.  That'd at least make sure she didn't leave again and cause him another headache.  Kami he was tired of picking her broken bloody body off the sand.

- I'm not afraid of God -

"I am afraid of man"

Unit 294 looked at Azarea, somewhat perplexed by her soft inquiry. Did he... not have a say in what was done with him? "Does any servant of a nation?" he wondered. Unit 294--puppet or not--was a warrior dedicated to a single nation's rule. To the instruction and order of those above him. If he was instructed to kill, he would do so. If he was sentenced to death, he would do so. A wise leader kept a man's skills and preferences in mind, but it was not that alone which determined their fate.
    In times of great war, even farmers were sometimes sent to the battlegrounds.
    Was he supposed to have any say in his future or the path ahead of him? Was he supposed to feel anything other than grateful that he was not being melted away to be used as scrap metal for future shinobi's swords? It seemed preposterous.
    Curioser and curioser, he did not understand the mindset of the one before him.
    "You wish to train with this one...?" Unit 294 repeated for clarification, uncertain if he understood correctly. It narrowed its gaze and looked away, pulling at the scarf around its neck to hide the lower half of its face--as though to mask a blushing expression despite the apparent lack of blood to rush to his cheeks. "I do not even know what I could train you in. Of what few memories I possess, teaching is not a skillset I recall. I do not know what you wish to learn while in my presence." What could he even teach to a shinobi? Neither of them wielded a sword, and everything else he had in his arsenal was his very body--something that could not be taught or replicated by them. So long as they wished to live, at least.
    Perhaps, if they wanted "guts of steel" or an "iron lung", he might sing a different tune, but it didn't seem like reasonable modifications to make.
    "I cannot teach you how to breathe fire, unfortunately," Unit 294 stated softly. "But if you wish to learn how to decrease the spread of toxins through a human body, or how to properly apply a bandage or create a tourniquet with tools found in the midst of a battlefield should you find yourself in an emergency whilst unprepared. I cannot perform CPR any longer, but I'm certain that knowledge could be of use to either of you should you find yourselves in the unfortunate circumstances where someone near to you has stopped breathing." He paused, for a moment. "Whatever the case, I would be happy to assist you wherever I am able."
    Whether that was on a mission, or under... whatever kind of request Zakku may have had in mind.

The Devil That You Forgot

The Weight of A Nation

"A nation exists to serve it's people." Of this Azarea was unwaveringly certain, but the lack of recognition in those glass like eyes was enough for her to know that this was not a prospect the man before her would understand. Not yet anyway. it was a prospect few shinobi seemed to grasp. And if a nation did not serve it's people what was it then...? Worse then useless, in Azarea's opinion.

But she would keep her words to herself for now instead offering 294 a small slim smile careful to hide her fangs. The almost human gesture of covering his face sparking something akin to hope within her chest. He looked like a man, but did not feel like a man, but he acted as one all the same in his own little tells. Was he man or weapon she wasn't sure? Both perhaps? Quietly though she hopes Toshizou never learns on the existence of creatures the likes of the being before her. He'd be far too fascinated with them for anyone's good.

She would known after all given here she was just as intrigued.

"And I agree with my escort here. I believe working with and training alongside you would be very educational. One can always benefit from learning new skills." She adds hoping to encourage 294. She would after all never be a medic, but the knowledge of the body and it's strengths and weaknesses was always valuable.

"Damn, I was hoping for fire breathing the most."  Zakku casually replied with a snort.  He thought it was funny. "We'll have to get a mission assigned with you so we can see you in action.  Or we could just have you beat the snot out of Red here and I could watch and take notes."  

Shrugging slightly he shifted onto his other leg.  "Would be a painful learning experience but a learning experience nonetheless.  Also it's someone else's turn to get beaten up for once."  One of the reasons Zakku tended to stay back was to let the others get beaten up so he could figure out a plan or his opponents weakness.  Though with 294 that'd be a different story.  He'd have to run for a long time but would 294 even get tired?  Probably best not to find out.  "Plus training with a living legend like you would be quite the honor."  Zakku was still a bit saddenned at leaving Enmei to rot in the tombs.  Having an ancient Sekkai on their side would have been a tremendous moral booster.  At least in his head.

"I am afraid of man"

"As does a Shippai exist to serve its people, too." An immovable object was met with an unwavering ideal. They would remain at a stalemate.
    It wasn't that he did not understand her stance--but he did not include himself in her equation. Humans created things to serve their best interests--to improve their chances for survival. They created tools, constructs, and nations--those things existed to serve their communities, or humanity as a whole. A nation existed to serve its people--to provide them closeness, shelter, and resources that they needed to live. It was why many of those individuals were, in turn, willing to shed their sweat, blood, and tears to reinforce the foundation that kept their fortress stable. They may die for a cause, but it was a sacrifice made for the greater good of their communities--and it would always be viewed as a tragedy by those who remained in their wake, because their life was a precious commodity that was meant to be kept safe from the very beginning. Unit 294 had walked through ruins of nations and cities and communities--they were nothing without their people. They existed, solely, for the sake of serving people.
    He would not be one to tell a person they had to fight, or give up all that was theirs and lay down their life if their heart was not lead to do such a thing.
    He understood that there were times when a leader did not give his people a choice--and Unit 294 recognized and respected the desperate measures that they sometimes took in times of dire need.
    But he valued human life.
    Oddly, for an assassin who did not feel remorse or sadness at the passing of mortals, for a creature who had been betrayed and damned by mankind's hands--
    --truly, he did find value, and beauty, and joy, in human life.
    But he was not human.
    He understood what Azarea was trying to communicate--but she was wrong to extend her compassion to him. She was naive. Ignorant. And it was not her fault--so the creation was patient, because she could not know better, and she was justified in her feelings even if they were misguided.
    They moved on somewhat to other conversation--Azarea awkwardly gave her smiles, not showing her teeth (which Unit 294 thought was odd), and Zakku joked that he hoped the Shippai would beat up the woman so that he could learn from the display of violence. "I do not batter," he refused simply, the concept of causing intentional harm without the intention to kill rather lost on him. "I execute." He did not have any interest in fighting either of them--for any reason, really. Not even if it was "for their benefit". There were other, safer ways to teach, he had to believe. And, besides. "Typically, I recognize a threat and I eliminate it. I am not willing to engage in friendly spar, because I worry I would not be able to distinguish the two." He wanted to say that he could trust himself--that he could read body language well enough to know someone's intentions while fighting, but the truth was that he couldn't say so. Some people fought with a blank face--but their intention was just as deadly as any other. Even those who played and joked--sometimes a nerve would get hit, and they would suddenly start being a bit too rough, a bit too aggressive, a bit too hostile--
    Some people got carried away.
    Unit 294 could not guarantee that he could always distinguish a blade facing him as not being a real threat. He might be able to. But.
    "It is not worth the risk of it going awry." That was the simple truth of the matter.
