ITP: Fallout time

[Those of you who've been feeling especially starved lately and have viciously mauled friends/family/unsuspecting morons to sate that feeling might notice that today you're suddenly feeling incredibly... normal. However, the drawback is that you might also be experiencing a slight headache, possibly an after-effect from being crazy. Ah well, it's

[Waaaaaaay out in the fields somewhere, there is a resting horse. And curled up next to said horse is an equally sedate and most definitely sleeping vampire, who is pretty much just wearing a torn shirt, complete with dried blood, and pants. Put simply, he looks like a wreck, although he is also clutching an open half-full bottle of tablets in one hand. Horse is also glaring at anyone who gets too close for comfort.]

[... Throwing pebbles from a good distance away at Zero]

[Lily snorts indignantly at you and folds back her ears, but emopire remains pretty dead to the world.]

[stolengood]

[DEATH GLARES THE HORSE the one thing she's afraid of!!]

[bitingcynicism]

[Horse continues to give you a LOOK while she snuffs Zero's hair and then proceeds to nibble on it a little.]

[stolengood]

[Throws a slightly bigger pebble for good measure. She wants to go up to him but hoooooorse]

[bitingcynicism]

[And you hit the horse, who immediately leaps to her hooves, thus jostling her dozing companion, and also neighing like holy hell.]

L-Lily, what... ?

[bitingcynicism]

[Oh.]

[stolengood]

[An expression you won't actually see on Parker often! Genuine fear/flight mode]

Sorry! I'm sorry!

[bitingcynicism]

[Wincing at the loud neighing but quickly turning from her to step in front of Lily and put his hand on her neck, both patting and stroking the her coat, as Lily lashes her tail and violently tosses her head once.]

Sssh calm down, girl. Calm down.

[stolengood]

[Still a good distance, standing, drawn into herself, turned mostly away and looking back at the scene]

Sorry.

[bitingcynicism]

[To Lily, who is gradually calming down with a couple more comforting pats.]

Hey. Stop interrupting my naps, all right?

[To Parker, without turning. Note: Nowhere near as relaxed as icon may suggest.]

... you're not the one who needs to apologize.

[stolengood]

I threw a rock and it hit it.

[bitingcynicism]

Yeah, that was stupid.

Did Ebi help you?

[stolengood]

She did a pretty good job of trying.

[bitingcynicism]

Trying?
