[hot_mess_express]

Who: unfortunate souls
When: out of time, slotted in with the event but put out of time so people can die/come back easy
Where: places

[ The ground rumbles and shakes - and then opens up. The earth swallows you whole, leaving you in front of . . . blobs . . . Oh they're a little cute, aren't they?

But the world is a bit dark, isn't it? It's a little scary . . . isn't it? ]

[yeah there's not much he can do here.

Continues To Be Having A Bad Time, good luck guys.]

[saddleclub]

[Well fuck this actually. He's had this fight. Granted he had everyone with him to support him and it was still hard. But right now, if he doesn't face this--approximation of the man who's until recently ruled his life, then everyone else here is going to have a worse time because he won't be able to help them.

For all the confidence in his voice it actually takes a lot of courage to say these words, to make himself try to feel them.]

Hmph. I have no reason to fight you. You're nothing but a bad copy. As for worthiness--ha. you have no right to speak of it. Now, you will release my friends or I will force you to.

[stays crouched inside her chalk circle, scribbling sigils around its edges. maybe they'll work, probably they won't, but she has at least one trick:]

Isildur, come!

[and the hulking shape of her familiar melds half-visible out of the shadows, setting himself snarling between her and the blob]

Re: PLAYER ACTION

[malignstar]

[ He stumbles back, his hand reflexively going for his ruby amulet, which is glowing faintly, between his fingers, as he tries to block Eliza as best he can. He turns when she call out behind him. ]

What... ?

Re: PLAYER ACTION

[bowtiedbones]

Eyes on the slime!

[Isildur is almost invisible in the darkness, but a shadowy bear-sized dragon skeleton is only SO hard to miss]

Re: PLAYER ACTION

[malignstar]

What is that thing?

Re: PLAYER ACTION

[bowtiedbones]

This is Isildur and he's a very good boy and my familiar and not a thing, thank you!

[hissoff]

[ man when you can't see anything that's going on it's like nothing is real.

...... p...fffff, ]

Hahaha, what's that? That's such a cheesy line. It's right out of a dramatic play, how is anyone supposed to take this seriously?

And did Eclair bring his whole police force here?

Re: PLAYER ACTION

[saddleclub]

[Did you just... Laugh at my fake dad. When I was trying to have a dramatic moment...]

...

[Actually that seems fine.]

Re: PLAYER ACTION

[hissoff]

You do know this fool, right?

Aren't you the one who said that "everyone deserves dignity and respect"... or something to that extent?

Re: PLAYER ACTION

[saddleclub]

Even my father isn't-- but this isn't' him it's just a copy. I suppose you can laugh at the poor taste.

Re: PLAYER ACTION

[hissoff]

[ hmmmm... ]

If you can decide that someone like me is worthy of receiving a beautiful name, then I'm sure you can also decide your own worth.

[ you know what fuck it i have a self-contained mobile prison im just gonna weaponize it. RUNS DIRECTLY AT THE SOUND OF SHITTY DADVOICE CUZ I KNOW THERE AINT ANY DADS ON THIS TRAIN ]

MONSTER REACTION

[hot_mess_express]

[ You all take defensive positions, except for -

Naan, who laughs. Itsuki, who runs into the dadblob.

It might just be that it happened at the same time, but both blobs meld together and start to break down, waning - Jusis' father starts to lose his shape, the blob prison starts to stiffen and crumble. But Naan's laughter isn't enough. ]

MONSTER ACTION

[hot_mess_express]

[ The area starts to shake as the blobs dig deeper into the earth, growing thicker and thicker in order to start choking out the oxygen - can you laugh if you can't breathe?

The wereblob snarls, taking the first strike at Eliza's familiar. Jusis' father opens his mouth as if to say something, but nothing really comes out - he's fading into the blob that's starting to peel off of Itsuki - but the manblob brandishes his sword anyway, trying to take a final swing at the two of them before he's completely absorbed.

Randy's blob has started to hold him, now. Cradle him, really - as it starts to break him apart, bit by bit, tiny little bits of flesh peeled off from his neck and collarbone and ankle and leg and ear and face and eye to funnel to the rest of its brethren, dinner to eat to fuel their growth and make them stronger. ]

[ SHOUTING FROM INSIDE HIS BLOB, ] I DON'T KNOW IF THAT DID ANYTHING BUT IF IT DID SOMEBODY TELL ME WHERE TO POINT THIS THING NEXT

[GO GET RANDY]

Re: PLAYER ACTION

[crimeson]

[send help xoxo

he's not even struggling anymore, just letting himself be held and torn apart]

Re: PLAYER ACTION

[dragonblooming]

[ it's cool i am going to smash this ball into your blob also ]

Re: PLAYER ACTION

[hissoff]

[ ..... um. hears bones breaking, this isn't very funny anymore. ]

Re: PLAYER ACTION

[bowtiedbones]

[Eliza and her familiar both flinch, the dragon batting back like an oversized cat BAP BAP BAP while Eliza yells over his shoulder]

Bad! Bad slime! Bad blob! Down!

Re: PLAYER ACTION

[saddleclub]

This... Is ridiculous.

[voreaciously]

[Tries to set it on fire?

Fire is happening.
