Chapter 9: An unexpected awakening; the First Emperor finds shelter

Apr 09, 2010 18:25

[The PCD switches on it as drops out of Ryuubi's pocket; he appears to have just woken up, or snapped back into awareness, sitting up with a still-lost and faraway look. He's in the Temple of Heaven, right at the center of the great hall, staring upwards at the higher levels and the arching ceiling; his face has that detached, not-quite-himself ( Read more... )

You seem...less...uhm...goofy?

fightingvirtue April 9 2010, 21:01:52 UTC

[For a moment there, Ryuubi just stares. Recognition comes slowly.]

... Ai.

willdateforyen April 10 2010, 03:30:29 UTC

Uh. Yeah! That's me? What're you doing? ...Is the serious-type of boy in style now?

fightingvirtue April 10 2010, 08:31:38 UTC

No, no, I - I'm sorry - this place has -

... you are all right?

[[I can't remember which name Ryuubi gave Hawke. Was it Gen, or am I mixing him with someone else??]]

Are you well?

[video] fightingvirtue April 10 2010, 08:33:11 UTC

[[Yep ^^ Gentoku --> Gen.]

...

Hawke.

I'm fine now, I think. It was... something about this place...

Things are better now, Gen?

[[Holy crap, I remembered something!!]]

Yes. I think. It's -

[He hesitates, then raises a hand and taps the side of his head.]

Not entirely reliable, sometimes.

[Too out of it to get the joke WTF.]

Maybe... shouldn't this device have one? I don't exactly... remember...

What? No, no, no, it's not like that. Adstringendum, right? City? Pocket universe? I'm good! [Why yes he does sound a bit like he's juuuust making sure.]

[Jean chuckles, but it's friendly sounding.]

Pretty damn early in th'mornin' my friend. ...Dependin' on when ya normally wake up that is.

fightingvirtue April 10 2010, 08:36:24 UTC

... I think I've been asleep for a while...

... oh. I didn't wake anybody up, did I? I hope not.

2ndlt_jeanhavoc April 10 2010, 08:58:07 UTC

Can't say I rightly know that, unfortunately. Been down n'out for a bit.

[He shakes his head.]
Nah, not here at any rate. I doubt anywhere else too. If they're not up by now they prob'ly don't hear the PCD when they sleep.

[He definitely still does, absolutely, he's not out of that phase of sleeping with one eye open. In fact if he could he would.]

Y'doin' okay though?

fightingvirtue April 11 2010, 15:47:33 UTC

Good. Good. I'm glad to hear that. I'd hardly want to be trouble.

[The last thing he wants to do is to worry people. Dreads it, really.]

I'm okay. A little... lost, maybe. It is April, isn't it?

In the day? Or are you talking age? I think different people come from different times.

fightingvirtue April 10 2010, 08:39:55 UTC

But if all times are one then - where is the difference? Things echo... how can I remember this place?

[Blink, blink, stare.]

... oh, ancestors. Mr. Hughes. I'm sorry. This is not - never you mind it.

brig_gen_maes April 10 2010, 08:54:47 UTC

I'm not bothered at all. It doesn't seem like people remember this place when they go home.

fightingvirtue April 11 2010, 15:51:17 UTC

It's not the city, but simply - this place. This building. There's just something about it...

Well, maybe I'll recall. And you? How are you holding up?
