The darkness the other day made it kind of difficult to do anything about replacing everything the earthquake broke. It was a busy week of not-so-natural disasters... the rain was a mere inconvenience, but the earthquake was a rude reminder of how unpleasant this place can be. Aside from having a lot of cleaning to do, and a lot of dishes to buy, everything's fine over here... and by and large, considering the fact that we had an earthquake, most of the people coming in to the hospital weren't too badly hurt.
I guess it could have been a problem if you're afraid of the dark... terror of the unknown, and all that. I never have been... not even when I was little.
Besides. We've had things like that before-- fog, a while back. That arena showed up the next day, though I haven't seen anything new now. Curses are curses; the bright side is, no matter how awful they are, they never last.

Bright side sure is fucking bright, huh? Effects can sure stick around.

What a goddamn tragedy.

So, that's the worst curse-related shit you can think of?

What are you afraid of? If not of the unknown and the dark?

[identity profile] holymadonna.livejournal.com 2009-05-01 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
Understandable. It's a very unpleasant situation.

A fearless man. It comes with the job we must do.

The rain was pretty awesome. And I'm used to darkness, anyway.

Water's my element. And Nobodies use darkness to get around.

You brought this upon yourself, Rudy- Action.

Well, no point in trying to explain it, is there? He decided to just give him a more practical demonstration. Mainly by using a portal of said darkness to make his way to Rudy's room.

If you look to your left, you'll notice an ovular swirling mass of black and purple darkness hovering there for a moment or two- ominously. Well, ominously until Demyx steps out, coat on, hood up- just like he always did- and responds. "Like that."

Action.

Oh, come on now. It's not like he even knows that he's a serial killer, and besides, this is still considered normal for him, he doesn't think about it in terms of people not being used to it, it just is.

He throws his hood back to retort, "Hey, I was just showing you what you asked for." Besides, payback for giving him the wrong type of heart, bitch. But not really.

Demyx kind of doesn't understand that sort of stuff all that much. And anyway, he can't hear all of your internal monologue. "Well, you did ask."

Action

Demyx probably would not want to hear his inner monologue. But he also doesn't understand a lot of simple aspects of normal interaction. "Invade your privacy? I just stopped over because you asked how I could use darkness."

Action

Yeah, because of all the residents of the City, Demyx cares about him being snappish. "Well, last time I tried, but it didn't work, so I just demonstrated."

He grins at that last bit. "Yeah! It's pretty helpful. I mean, back home I used it to travel to other worlds, too, but that doesn't work out of the City. But everyone in the Organization can travel like that. I like my water and my sitar."

Somehow I'm not surprised she'd win a drag race. Sounds in character.

Are you...upset with me?

[identity profile] defend-darkly.livejournal.com 2009-05-04 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
It was scary?

[Private]

Well if that's what comes to mind first...but that or anything. You never get me presents anymore. Things were good for a while, but sometimes I think you're disappointed in me. I also think I'm cursed because I really didn't mean to say that, but I can't risk talking to anyone else right now, so...

It's good for them, they just don't think so

[identity profile] defend-darkly.livejournal.com 2009-05-04 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
Good point.

[Private]

Not far away or permanently. I'm so used to living on my own, even with the ticking I think I'd prefer it. But you're not the one who drinks the milk straight from the carton. I'd be okay with Deb moving out and you staying if there were possible.

I hate it when I feel like you're holding that over my head. If I could have anything it would be to not have to choose. If only she could go home.

Part of me wishes you held to the same Code but you wouldn't be half so interesting then.

What bothers me is that so many people here are more powerful than I am. I'm used to feeling like the biggest baddest thing around. There are some that fit the Code, but even if they weren't going to just come back--damn. It is really hard to stop typing right now.
