Regret 008; [Action - Afternoon]

[Good afternoon Luceti, it’s a beautiful day isn’t? There’s nothing that could ruin this lovely day in the square. Absolutely nothing, am I right?

Not even the giant, mountain of six-foot tall, icky, mud-colored slump of sludge trying to worm it’s way to the center. Or that absolutely foul smell that seems to be emanating from it. The creature, whoever or whatever it is, is lurching towards the fountain, leaving a trail of the oily, thick substance behind it. It doesn’t seem to be able to talk, and when it tries, there’s the faint sound of sputtering, coughing, and perhaps a bit of gagging going on deep in it’s center.

Unfortunately, there’s not enough water in the fountain to wash all of that scum away. Care to lend a hand, citizens?]


[ooc: Zan’nen’s come back from his kidnapping cosplaying as a Grimer! Just kidding. (Although that’s a simple way to put it.) He’s come back covered in nasty, sticky sludge. It’s not poisonous, although the smell is terrible. It’s layered on so thick, he’s about twice his normal thickness, and quite a few inches taller. It also tastes terrible... Eww. ]

But why? [Her brow furrows, because that doesn't make any sense to her, and Zan'nen didn't seem too happy. Then again, maybe he wasn't happy about smelling so bad.]

Are we going to go swimming, too?

[Zan'nen squeezed Kaori's hand through the muck. He didn't mean to confuse her. It was a touchy subject for him.]

The lake? ...I guess that would be better. [Although right now, what he was craving the most was a steamy hot bath, with soap. Lots of soap. Although the clean up would be inconvenient even in the best case scenerio.]

And maybe you can go swimming if I don't muck up the lake too much, Kaori. All right with you Frey?

[Yeah, he's not carting you to the hot springs, sorry.] Of course we can. It might be a little chilly, though.

[By which he means it is September guys it's going to be cold. Suck it up like a man Zan'nen.]
tinyjasmine: (Happy to meet you!)

[personal profile] tinyjasmine 2011-10-14 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
I don't mind! [Squeezing Zan'nen's hand right back, she begins to stand up and drag Zan'nen up with her. She wanted to get to the lake as soon as possible!

Then again, she shouldn't be in water for too long anyway. But she's not going to mention that to either of the two just yet, she didn't get very many opportunities to go into water.]

[While Eyes doesn't much enjoy this task, he'd already committed to it.]

Move to your right and take several more steps forward.

[identity profile] returninghope.livejournal.com 2011-10-19 09:13 am (UTC)(link)
...Maybe we should all pick up a change of clothes or something first. And you need a jacket Kaori. [There was no way he was going to let her catch cold on his account.

And he wasn't sure, but he could guess these clothes buried beneath the filth were ruined. Not that he was going to change in front of them, but... It'd be nice to have close by when they were done.]

[Zan'nen listens to his instructions blindly, hating it all the while. He hated this feeling of blidly relying on a stranger. And a rude one at that.]

[identity profile] pridefulfists.livejournal.com 2011-10-19 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)


Sorry.

[identity profile] returninghope.livejournal.com 2011-10-19 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[Zan'nen took the jacket gratefully, and tried to clear his face first. He can't tell you how relieving it is just to be able to breathe again.]

Don't apologize. There's no need.

[Ugh, this towel was kind of scratchy.... Oh.] Guess I owe you a jacket.

... The fountain is right in front of you. Go ahead and throw yourself in if you'd like. [While he stays and watches like the rude person he is. :|]
falenandawn: (stare5)

[personal profile] falenandawn 2011-10-20 10:48 am (UTC)(link)
We can stop by the clothing shop on the way. [hefting Zan'nen up as well, though his grip isn't the best given the slime. It really was quite disgusting.....]

[identity profile] pridefulfists.livejournal.com 2011-10-20 05:02 pm (UTC)(link)
They're free anyway.

What happened?
tinyjasmine: (Curious child is curious!)

[personal profile] tinyjasmine 2011-10-23 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
... New clothes? [You mean pretty dresses for everyone?! *o*]

[identity profile] returninghope.livejournal.com 2011-11-02 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Just because it's free doesn't mean I should go around ruining it. [Even so, Zan'nen tried to scrub the side of his head with a cleaner portion, to try and rid the slimy feeling from his ear canals.]

Just those Malnosso bastards screwing with me again. What's the date today?

[identity profile] returninghope.livejournal.com 2011-11-02 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[Luckily, with Frey's help, Zan'nen manages to find his feet, despite all the water and the mud. His abdomen was sore.] Thanks.

[Oh no, Kaori. Zan'nen's dealt with little sister's before, and he can sense that excitement a mile away.] We're not going to turn this into a shopping spree. A change of clothes and that's it. We can go shopping for real later.
falenandawn: (wtf)

[personal profile] falenandawn 2011-11-03 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, just a change of clothes. He's right, We can all go shopping together and get you something nice later, but right now we have to focus on cleaning Zan'nen off. [Frey had, as well. He'd been subjected to enough of Lym's whims to know little girls and shopping was a dangerous combination.]

[identity profile] pridefulfists.livejournal.com 2011-11-03 04:23 pm (UTC)(link)
It's just a jacket.

Do you feel any different? September 22nd.
tinyjasmine: (Trying to focus!)

[personal profile] tinyjasmine 2011-11-06 06:32 am (UTC)(link)
'Kay. [Well now you two will be subjected to a pouting six-year-old, do something to cheer her up before she makes your lives miserable.]

[identity profile] returninghope.livejournal.com 2011-11-08 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
[Don't think he won't.

In fact, that's exactly what he does. He throws himself in. Just to spite this guy.

If he drowns, he's totally haunting you. 8|]

[identity profile] returninghope.livejournal.com 2011-11-08 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
September already, huh? [That was a long time to be gone. What had they been doing with him the entire time?]

Guess I missed my birthday.

[identity profile] returninghope.livejournal.com 2011-11-08 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
[Awh man. Not pouting! No pouting. He's a sucker for pouting and sad girls. Don't make faces like that, Kaori. Ugh.]

Frey. Go get her a snack or something. Cookies, or whatever. I'll... try to wash up.
bloodypocket: (Default)

[personal profile] bloodypocket 2011-11-08 07:49 am (UTC)(link)
[Go ahead and haunt him all you like, the ghost of a foul-smelling man is hardly frightening.

If and when Zan'nen finishes mucking up the fountain, he can turn around and see Eyes dressed in the traditionally white New Feather pants, but wearing a coat with his journal tucked neatly under his left arm. And he may look disturbingly like you.]
falenandawn: (smile11)

[personal profile] falenandawn 2011-11-10 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Right... Let's give him some privacy, ok Kaori? [Taking her hand and nodding to the bakery.] Cookies sound like a great idea to me. Maybe we can pick out something for Zan'nen, too? [So she doesn't just gobble them down and rush back.]

[identity profile] pridefulfists.livejournal.com 2011-11-11 05:57 pm (UTC)(link)


You didn't miss much else.
tinyjasmine: (Want to play!)

[personal profile] tinyjasmine 2011-11-13 08:41 am (UTC)(link)
He likes peanut butter cookies! [Even if Rikuto being so old doesn't make sense to her right now, she knows for sure that the person they had helped was him despite what he may or may not say.]
