14th oath of the moment: Legion of One

Jun 23, 2011 20:56

11 PM, backdated to Wednesday night. Action 1, locked to 2237 Stevens Residents: [ Garviel awakens after a day of droning, and the awakening is not a gentle one. A yell of pain can be heard, and then silence, aside from his heavy steps as he descends the stairs of the home and swiftly armors himself in his Astartes plate without a word to anyone ( Read more... )

[ Souji is seated in the center of the restaurant. Since it was summer he had all the time in the world, and one of his first orders of business was to check out this restaurant. He's having some trouble selecting something appetizing from the menu. ]

[A figure casts Souji in shadow, looming over him, and grates out with a slightly weary tone.]

May I take your order, Ser?

[ Souji looks up. ]

Garviel? I didn't know you worked here.

Yes. This is my designated work, according to the town. [He says it flatly, but his eyes show his bitterness.]

I'm a boy scout thanks to this place. I'm happy to hear you can adapt pretty well. Your manners are always eloquent.

I think they will be less so now. [His face doesn't change, just remains flat.] I have had impressed upon me the need for us to all return home in a very dramatic way.

[ Souji was going to reply with a joke about Garviel taking it easy with the theatrics, but thanks to Souji's overwhelming UNDERSTANDING he didn't and potentially didn't suffer getting flayed with a chain sword.

Souji puts the menu down. ]

Dramatic how?

[Garviel looks down at Souji.]

I first awoke here thinking I was dead. I was not. Now I know this, and I know my service to the Emperor and humanity is not done, so this becomes not just a trap keeping me from well-earned rest, but a trap that keeps me from fulfilling my oaths. We should not abide in this prison.

[ Souji listens. He's good at that. But Garv's preaching to the choir. ]

Yes.

[ It didn't take much for him to put what Cain said about his world and what Garviel represented to figure out that well-earned rest was death after inflicting a lot more death. Souji managed a small smile. He was very familiar with such fanaticism and loyalty to such a cause. His country made suicide attacks famous. ]

I hope we all get our own rest long after we're free from here. There's a lot we still have to do first.

Perhaps. I've been told little about my new purpose yet.

When were you told your new purpose?

About an hour before I ended up here. Just that Malcador, the right hand of the Emperor, had a mission for me.

That sounds serious. Is there anything I can do to help?

Reply

lunawolves10th June 27 2011, 02:50:50 UTC
Nothing, except be ready to help when the time comes for us all to smash a way out of here. I think you were planning on that already.

[Garviel actually smiles a bit.]

Of course.

[ Souji returns Garv's smile with a wide grin. ]

Give the command and I'll have a dozen mobilized.

I truly appreciate that. I shall let you know when the time comes.
