"THROWING CAUTION TO THE SEA"
"Aki."
Angel Devil's dusty red hair swirls around in the breeze while squatting as he watches his partner remain motionless on the striped beach blanket, one eye closed tightly under the beaming UV rays of the sun, the other squinting open slightly to take in the short-statured man crouching next to him.
"Hm?" he responds dryly.
To which, the short-statured man suddenly appears to grow in height. He rises to his full height which normally is a whopping head shorter than the young man, Aki, who towers over the devil. Shortening the distance in dominance from where one man lay and another stands, Angel Devil graciously extends his well-manicured hand and fingertips to the topknot-wearing young man and waits for his response. Aki, without much drive, accepts with a gloved and protected hand of his own.
"How long have I been out?" he asks.
"About thirty minutes." Angel Devil shrugs."Thirty minutes?!"
Aki flicks his wrist up in front of his eyes and checks Angel Devil's time telling skills, to which he's disappointed to realize are accurate. He frantically gathers their things and begins in sequential order of importance packing and stuffing belongings into a giant tote bag. He starts with shaking out the beach towels, then he grabs the sunscreen, water bottles, snacks, soggy swim trunks and then finishes off with the matching pairs of sunglasses the partners wear on particularly sunny missions. Today might be one of those missions, as it's on a local beach.
"I thought I told you to let me rest for five minutes and then we could head over to the shore. Why has it been now past thirty?"
Angel Devil shrugs innocently.
"Because you looked so cute sleeping there."
Aki can feel the tips of his ears turning red, though he can't tell if it's a sunburn or his own short-circuiting emotions. Either way, he decides to ignore Angel Devil's coquetry and head in the opposite direction towards the site of their mission. The partners were assigned a mission at the beach by Makima for today. They aren't sure why they need to be some place like this, but either way it's work and they'll be getting paid the same, why complain?
