[Accidental video] [Week 14, Day 1] Elfangor has the worst luck ever.
(WARNING: NON-CON TENTACLE PORN. Somewhere between a hard R/NC-17. Also, this was written while very drunk, sob)
( In which Elfangor is chased, and subsequently caught, by the rampaging Mara. )
( In which Elfangor is chased, and subsequently caught, by the rampaging Mara. )
Part of him does want Allen to come get him, to make everything seem better, because he's good at doing that. But the other part just wants to hide out for as long as he can.
He's... usually not very embarrassed about these sorts of things. About sexual things. But this was not something that he had wanted--oh sure, the aphrodisiac had made him more pliable, but that was... coercive. It wasn't. It wasn't really a choice. It was just... something to be endured. Not truly enjoyed, as sex ought to be.
And worse, it had been broadcast over the Hitomi. Everyone could see it.]
I. I don't know.
[Shoves a hand through his hair. Doesn't know if he can handle talking to anyone right now. And Allen implied there were others wherever he was. Which means they had possibly seen the video. But--there's someplace safe, and he supposes that's what's really important right now.]
Y-yeah. Alright. If... If you're sure. [He really doesn't want Allen unnecessarily risking his neck for him, so he warns him.] That thing might still be somewhere in these woods.
There's a cave just off the Suijin River, not too far from Hisato. South of the Amaterasu shrine. It's... pretty unobtrusive, but not that hard to find. That's where I am.

Even if he's very sober and just taps his earring for a quick reply.]
Alright. I'll be right there. I promise.
[And he kind of is before he can think any more about... anything. Any of it. And that's how he'll deal with it. He didn't really see it because... god, who would keep watching. What was that thing even. Except-
No. He'll just not bring it up. Ever. He can't even imagine... any of it. It's utterly outside his understanding of everything. Except for one - someone he knows needs help. And someone he likes? Well, he likes everyone, but friendship is odd. Maybe. His... 'nametwin' might be very little like him - not the same species even - but Alan (Elfangor? No. Kind of likes considering him Alan even if it's a bit weird.)...
Maybe it is just weird. But that's okay.
He's stepped outside the house in Raisato and summoned a gate back to Hisato before anyone can miss him. It's rusty but instinctive and he really can't be bothered with stupid things like how inappropriate it is to use it. Sorry, Link. (Well, not really.)]

-Hello? Alan?

Hey. Thanks for, ah, coming to get me. [He wishes it didn't sound quite so pathetic to his own ears.
But then he blinks, taking in Allen's appearance, and his embarrassment over his situation fades momentarily, concern for Allen at the forefront of his mind.]
Um. What happened to you?
Reply
It's nothing.
[On both accounts. Of course he wasn't going to just leave someone like that, and...
Well. He doesn't like being considered a soldier. But he does fight when he has to, and-
... he kind of hasn't stopped all night. Who could with all matter of beasts chasing down people? It's not like he can just walk past when someone is in danger, and there were still stragglers in villages like Hisato. And he knows what to do in times like this - maybe the only time he ever really knows how to handle life - so it's only right for him to keep doing that.
But he's smiling and beckoning with his one human hand, though.]
There are a lot of creatures everywhere now... but people are finding shelter. Raisato's one of them.

It is such a simple gesture. And yet. He had thought that perhaps...
It's embarrassing, but he thought that maybe, those who had seen... would look upon him differently. Particularly those few whom he considers friends.
And yet--there Allen stands, smiling, offering a hand. Not so repulsed that he can't bear to touch him.
Elfangor returns the smile, shakily, and reaches out for his hand, to steady himself as he climbs out of the cave.]
You've been staying in Raisato, then?
[He rummages through his satchel, relieved to see that the Escafil device is still carefully tucked inside.]
Reply
He smiles a bit wider at the contact and helps pull Elfangor out without question. No need to focus on... what had happened.]
Sort of. Lenalee and I used to live there... and a lot of people are there now. It seems to be safe.
I, ah-
[He hesitates in general, watching the other now rifling through his satchel.]
With everything that's going on... I'm not certain, but it would seem to be the best idea.
Reply
But really, he just wants to get away from this place. Anywhere but here. He'd been alright when he was in the cave, but now... His eyes dart around, alert for any movement among the trees.
It's wrong--it's wrong for an Andalite to want a roof over his head more than trees and sky.
Bile claws at his throat.]
I'm not familiar with Raisato. But I'm sure it's better than this place. [A poor attempt at humor.]
[But then his brow scrunches in thought, realizing something.] How did you get here so quickly? Usually it takes half an hour to get anywhere around here...

[Allen pauses for a second, a little surprise on his expression at...
Well, right. It's a little weird even, to be using the Ark more freely. Link's probably off gnashing his teeth about it at the moment.
Allen smiles, though; light and a little carefree because... he's doing this because he believes in it now. It's a worry, sure, but he feels unfettered by Central for once with it.]
It's something I can do. I couldn't before, but... earlier today I could.
[And he smiles again - a little sweet, quick, a touch impish - and then glances upwards quickly.
Hello, there's a shimmering white door of sorts behind him now that shoots up from the ground.
Yes, he could feel a thousand court martials, hearings on treason, or any number of whatever they wanted to call it, but...
He's using it to help people. Screw the rest.
Smile.]
Reply
But it really isn't his place to question it. Not when Allen is doing this to help him, and he appreciates it tremendously.
He returns the smile, but his eyes still hold a measure of concern.]
I-- hope that this [he glaces at the suddenly-appeared door] doesn't cause you, ah, too much trouble?
[What he truly means by that is left unsaid.
(I don't want you getting into trouble over me; I've caused that for too many people already.)]
Reply
Allen smiles a little wanly at the worry for a second but raises a hand dismissively, waving it aside with a bit of a sheepish look.]
Not at all. It's better than risking running into any, ah... more creatures.
[He'd rather not think about that and turns instead to step though -partially into it, not unlike a portal of light.
Beckon and smile though. Really, see, it's fine.]
Reply
His smile strengthens a bit, but it is mostly forced. Tries not to let the cracks show, not to let the panic seep through.
He follows Allen, without any further hesitation.]
