first psywave | video + action

[antlioncyclone]

[The video opens shakily - the recording is either unintentional or unpracticed. There's a quiet hiss of breath, like an agitated sigh, and the pages flip across the camera.

A pause, as the page is examined and read. The camera wavers, catching brief glimpses of an arm, an angular head, a stubby horn, covered in a fine, pale fur, before moving away

[That's... actually a familiar face, one she hasn't seen in a long while, and Sanji freely stares. Dots of recognition light up her expression.]

Mewtwo?

[antlioncyclone]

[-what

He stops abruptly and glances over to Sanji, showing a hint of surprise.

who you]

[allbluebreasts]

[On the money, huh? That one show of surprise answers every question Sanji needs to know, and she draws herself back, relaxed against the wall of Seventh Heaven]

Yeah, I know who you are.

[antlioncyclone]

[...yes, well.

That's just not okay, and Mewtwo is raising that spoon threateningly and stepping closer, eyes narrowing.

who you]

[allbluebreasts]

[Oh calm down, sir]

You've been in this shithole before, that's why; even if you don't remember.

... Or maybe it was a different you. Who the hell knows?

[Mmm, shrugging deeper into her coat] The name's Sanji.

[antlioncyclone]

[...the nonchalance is a bit, um. "Excuse me, ma'am, but you are aware that I could melt your brain with a snap of my fingers"?

Except Mewtwo just isn't that witty, and he doesn't find the situation funny. One possibility: she's lying. He doesn't have any reason to trust or distrust her yet, though her calmness is a bit too characteristic of the sort of villain-type that snarks for a bit and then springs a trap while smiling smugly.

>8|

Other possibility: she's not lying and scientists have tampered with his brain. Do Not Want all over the hell place. "Different you" is just stupid - there is one (1) Mewtwo.

He settles for relaxing with the battle stance a tiny bit and making a quiet hissing noise, still suspicious.]

[allbluebreasts]

[She remembers the extent of his powers, seeing as she once tried to kick his ass, after all. Not a good first meeting. In fact, it's surprise enough she called out to him. She doesn't make a habit of helping bastards she takes a dislike to. Today must be an off-day.

But her unimpressed staring turns thoughtful at the response. Maybe this really is a different Mewtwo]

You don't talk with your mind? [Makes a gesture] That psychic stuff.

[antlioncyclone]

Hmph.

[it

it doesn't count as "communicating" right

/indignant >BT ]

[allbluebreasts]

[Yeah, that's what she thought. 8|]

Tcccch, why am I doing this?

Oi, have you looked at your journal yet? It's got the information you'd want.

[antlioncyclone]

[tailflick. Oh, he looked...for about three pages. He's planning on reading the rest later.

This expression says "I am not stupid, I know that. >B|"]

[allbluebreasts]

[Sorry, Mewtwo. She is judging you]

Then I don't have to tell you we're stuck here, so far there's no way out, and there's not a damn thing we can do to stop the Malnosso shitheads and the Third Party bastards from toying with us.

[antlioncyclone]

[what

no]

"Not a thing"?

[bullshit]

[allbluebreasts]

Try if you like. I'm not gonna stop ya.

But you'll have to get through the barrier first. [And the last Mewtwo couldn't do it either. Sorry son]

[antlioncyclone]

...There is always a way.

[allbluebreasts]

[... sigh.]

Maybe. But the fact is we haven't found it yet.

People and creatures from all over the universe, from different times and realities, and the only ones who get to leave are the ones the Malnosso let go.

[antlioncyclone]

[/tailflick]

So you're just going to give up?
