Hotaru was walking around the Alley after a conversation between her and Eva not too long ago. The two had gone down memory lane from their gang days, one of which had involved this very place. Her gang once was dumb enough to try looking for Ookami's to get the territory from.... while they were drunk. This of course, was before Hotaru had come into power and was stuck in the background, drinking Dr. Peppers instead of all the beer and junk everyone else had gone with. Needless to say, her gang didn't win a single duel that day.
The redhead decided to come back to the Alley to relive that day just for the hell of it. She laughed a little to herself, watching the drunks that day was pretty funny, she had to admit. And, to go along with reliving the day, she had brought quiet a few Dr. Peppers with her, just to add on to it all the more.
Standing up against one of the walls, the Tora took a Dr. Pepper out and took a few sips of it, wondering if she could get hyper off so many sodas all at once.

Kage was standing in between two buildings, his jacket pockets laiden with bottles of root beer. It wasn't the more expensive soda he usually liked to drink, but what could you do when you were basically homeless? The giant withdrew, opened, and chugged on of the beverages within a minute and proceeded to set the bottle on the ground in front of him. It was in the perfect position to be hit by the wanderer's enormous foot, and in fact was kicked. The container sailed through the air, slamming into the walls of the surrounding buildings with a tremendous sound. The bottle continued to bounce from wall to wall until it flew through a broken window near the top floor of the left-hand building. Kage let loose a heavy sigh; yes, this game was fun, but it was much more enjoyable with an extra player or two...

Hotaru paused when she heard a bunch of commotion not too far off. She wondered who else was there as she closed the Dr. Pepper bottle and began searching for the source of the noise.
Upon finding the person responsible for the noise she heard, she smiled when she saw it was her friend. "Kage!" she exclaimed. "Long time no see, buddy. How's it goin'?" she asked, getting another drink of her soda.

Kage turned around at the sound of a familiar voice and gave his friend a smile. A while back, he'd be afraid to do so, but the giant hoped everyone was used to his half-metal face by now.
"With kinetic energy, how else?" he replied, not terribly enthusiastic about it. "Looks like you've fully recovered from the Rooftop Rumble, yes?" Another bottle was drained and sent flying, again rather unceremoniously.

Hotaru and laughed slightly, holding up her bandaged wrist. "Yeah, bout a week or two more with this and I'll be back to normal." Jack had already told her about Kage's face, so it wasn't like she was too terribly surprised. It was different, but he was still her friend either way.
The redhead got out another thing of soda and took a moment or two to take in at least half out it. Man, she was thirsty. "So what've you been up to since the thing at the school?" she asked him curiously.

"Well, let's see..." Kage held up a hand and began counting on his fingers. "I got attacked by a barely pubescent psycopath, some random Kuma wants to kill me, and I haven't seen Tekka in days, other than her running frantically through the streets with some albino lady and a brown-haired kid. Anything fun happen to you since the fight?"

Hotaru blinked a few times at Kage's list of events. "Err, not really." she replied. A moment later she held up a few strands of her hair. "Aside from being able to walk around as my normal redheaded self again." she brushed the bit of hair back into place. She took another drink of the soda in her hands, finishing it off and tossing it into(what she hoped was) a nearby trash can.

"Does the pseudonym still have to stay?" asked Kage. He didn't mind calling Hotaru Phoenix, but he usually preferred using a person's given name. Another root beer was decimated before being kicked through the alley. The bottle bounced from one building to another until it landed on the right-hand roof.

The redhead thought about it for a moment, it was a good question to ask. "Hmm... Whatever's good for you I suppose." she decided after a bit of thought. The threat of people finding out about her had gone down more than a bit with the Aiden issue done and over with, so maybe it could be good to actually have some people call her by her real name again.

"Whatever you say, Hotaru," said Kage with a shrug. He wasn't sure what to say next when he realized that his redheaded friend was a perfect candidate for his lonesome game. "Hey, you ever played Bottle Pinball?" She probably hadn't; it something that the giant was pretty sure only he, Joshua, and Jeremiah had played. Still, maybe Hotaru would find it fun.

Hotaru tilted her head to the side at the mentioning of the game. "Never heard of it." she admitted. "How do ya play?" she asked him, beginning to grow a little curious.
