Summary
‘You do know what happened to him, though, don’t you?’ Enjin said, tightening his jaw. ‘You just don’t wanna say it.’
Eishia blew a strand of hair from her face. She fixed down her dress, visibly unnerved from the accusation. Then, she inhaled a short breath and turned to face him properly.
‘I do know,’ she murmured. Her eyes, usually so bright in their pink, seemed haunted, derelict, and bewildered all at once. ‘He got hurt, Enjin. Really, really bad.’
Enjin narrowed his eyes. ‘How bad, Eishia?’
She nibbled her lower lip, desperate for an escape from the conversation, but Enjin was through with the damn enigma of it all. Even so, he knew he was being too forward.
Perhaps in place for someone else that wasn’t there to do it.
Eishia dropped her head. ‘Down there, bad.’
And there it was.
Rudo was, in fact, an anomaly. He was capable, defiant, brave, empathetic, often blinded by his own rage - but most of all, a child.
And there would always come a time when the Ground, and the things in it, got too big - even for him.
This, was one of those times.

Summary
That’s that, he thinks to himself. I saw the Sphereite. It’s just a kid. Curiosity sated.
Done. Finished. No reason to go back.
Despite these thoughts, Zanka will go back. It’s not for anything in particular. Not even a gut feeling. It’s simply an impulse that he can’t shake. Maybe, possibly, a feeling not entirely dissimilar to guilt.
And he’s probably imagining it, but from where his hands grip his bō, a warmth travels through his perpetually frozen fingers and seeps into his bones and blood, slowly melting up his arms and settling like what he thinks a hug would feel like around his shoulders.
It feels like a reassurance.
That was, technically, the first night Zanka (and Aibō) met Rudo. It depends on who you ask.
OR: Moves are made earlier than they should've. Rudo is dropped from the Sphere at a younger age, Enjin isn't there to find him, and Zanka is presented with knowledge that will forever shift the trajectory of his life and those around him. Maybe that's a good thing.

Summary
So… Enjin knows himself, and he knows he is not someone suited to dealing with children. Piercing cries, overwhelming tantrums, and the strange language they seem to speak all confuse him, wear down his patience, and -at worst- make him feel useless and out of place. And yet, through a series of unforeseen incidents, he ends up becoming the babysitter of the youngest member of the Akuta team.
OR; Rudo turns into a four-year-old child.

Summary
The impact was sudden and solid, slamming into him with far more force than he had expected. The world lurched violently as he was knocked off balance, his grip faltering as the chain slipped from his hand. For a split second, everything felt weightless.
Then he hit the ground just as hard.
------
While out on a job, Rudo gets hit a little too hard and ends up with a concussion. The rest of Team Akuta takes an embarrassingly long time figuring it out.Bookmarked by clawinfervorblue
