Center of Town | Friday | December 10

Dec 10, 2010 10:07

At long last, the Goblin King was going to address this town and it's ridiculous occupants. He'd been keeping an eye on things from his castle but now, with the time of action so close at hand, he couldn't stop himself from leaving the castle to address those that were working fruitlessly to get their friends back. Now, it was time to appear to ( Read more... )

The Goblin King has appeared and given you an order! React at will!

So, now Cassidy had a face to go along with the person who had kidnapped their friends and fellow students. She a had a face that she could describe to Shira when they discussed who had dared to take a member of their Court.

She was highly unimpressed by him. She made sure that she took in every detail about him and --

Maybe some details were best left unrepeated if she wanted to be able to get through this thing without blushing the color of her hair.

...This wasn't good at all.

Dolf stared at the man, then the clock, then the man, and felt an old, familiar friend creep up; hopelessness. They'd barely even managed to get into the labyrinth before, and now they had to navigate it in a day?

He chewed on his lip, racking his brain for answers, but it felt like there weren't any. He wanted to shout after Jareth, ask him why, what was the point of this, but his feet felt a little frozen.

"He's completely mad," Cally announced, not because it wasn't obvious to anyone standing there, but because she needed some sort of lead-up to, "We've got to get them back."

Re: React swordsandsoccer December 10 2010, 20:23:34 UTC

It was at least a good warning, because now Dolf got to startle on mad rather than on get them back, which might have given the wrong impression. Now, he had time to turn towards her and go, "We do," in a shakily determined voice. "We all have to go in the Labyrinth!"

Lad, you had the swordfighting skills of a tea spoon despite your best efforts. Think about that for a minute. Even if you were okay at pointy-sharp-end-in-screaming-things.

Re: React onlymistaken December 10 2010, 20:31:07 UTC

Who knew Cally's classes -- the tactics and revolution ones, at least -- would come in handy so soon. "Not all of us," she countered. "We'd just get in each others' way -- and if it's dangerous, those who can't fight would need protection we there isn't time to offer."

Re: React swordsandsoccer December 10 2010, 20:39:34 UTC

"No, not everyone," Dolf agreed, not quite catching on to the implication just yet. "But some of us, and not too few either. And to bring something to mark bits of Labyrinth with. I should get something..."

No, Dolf. Just no.

Re: React onlymistaken December 10 2010, 21:10:20 UTC

"Dolf..." Why weren't there more lessons on diplomacy? "You're not good with fighting, remember? You told me so yourself."

Re: React swordsandsoccer December 10 2010, 21:17:51 UTC

"I can't just stay here and wait," he protested, twitching a little with nervous energy until he relocated it by biting down a little on his own lower lip. "What if they need help? What if I--"

He stopped. He thought about it. He-- well, he didn't think about it that long. "...Are you going?"

Re: React onlymistaken December 10 2010, 21:58:07 UTC

The look on her face, best described as Oh Dear, This Is Awkward would have answered the question for her if she hadn't spoken. "I'm a good shot. And I've medical training as well, if people do need help."

Re: React swordsandsoccer December 11 2010, 11:22:43 UTC

"I know how to take care of people, too," Dolf pointed out. He looked pained. "Please be careful." That wasn't... giving up. Completely, anyway.

Re: React onlymistaken December 11 2010, 20:20:31 UTC

"I know you do. People will need look after out here as well, though. Those creatures are still running about - and once we come out, who knows what--"

Yes, that would be a conversational path she probably shouldn't take. "Of course I'll be careful." Cough.

Re: React swordsandsoccer December 12 2010, 07:18:54 UTC

"And who knows what," Dolf echoed. His mouth was starting to set into a line that didn't spell entirely pleasant things. "Cally, I mean it."

Re: React onlymistaken December 12 2010, 07:31:21 UTC

"I can see that." A small part of her was inappropriately pleased about it, even as she tried to reassure him. "And I shall; I don't plan on doing anything reckless."

Re: React swordsandsoccer December 12 2010, 07:36:15 UTC

Good. Because Dolf planned on doing something reckless, if he saw the chance. Going along with whoever was going into the labyrinth didn't seem like much of an option anymore, though. Maybe there was something on the island he could do...

"Good," he said, pulling a face. "If you do not come back by tomorrow, I'm going in there myself." Because that was an ample threat.

Re: React onlymistaken December 12 2010, 08:46:17 UTC

Yes, Dolf. Go find something else reckless to do. That was exactly what Cally had in mind when gently convincing you not to storm the Labyrinth with her.

"There won't be any need for that." Really. ...Unless there was. "But if there is, make sure you don't do it alone!"

He wasn't the only one who could worry, thank you.
