5th Partridge [Action/Voice][Let's Give Away Shit]

Mar 11, 2011 22:37

[The bar door suddenly swings open. As the lightning crashes behind him, illuminating a crisp white outline around his figure, Ian walks silently in, dripping with rain water, a hoodie drawn over his unruly green hair. He glances to the left-to the right-before sitting down with a shadow crossing his features. After a beat, he looks up to the ( Read more... )

[Tattoi had noticed Ian consuming a pitcher of water in the bar earlier. He'd noted it down as something unusual - although he'd had the same thing himself - and proceeded to stay out of sight.]

[He'd followed Ian to the woods - years of practice with stealth and deceit had helped him remain out of sight - and he was now watching this odd ritual he seemed to be undergoing. The only real signs of Tattoi being there are some plumes of mist that might be written off as fog. ...Very localized fog. :|b]

[Ian's kind of slow, so give him a little while. Followed? What's followed mean? 8D

But... after a while, that fog does catch his eye. He drops the vial and leaps up, surprised.]

What the heck...! Is the forest haunted or something...?!

[Oh shit! A haunted forest! Ian, you fool, you might be attacked by specters! Those are real, right? I mean, anything's possible in Luceti!]

Hey, ghosts! Stop being jerks!

I-I'm not scared of you anyway, so there!

So l-lay off the foggy stuff, huh??

[...Fool. Let's toy with him a bit. Tattoi releases some excess steam with a loud, angry hiss; the "ghosts" are getting bigger and they're getting mad. Tattoi's also getting ready to escape, should he decide to get closer.]

[Tattoi really, really has to try hard to stifle his laughter. The poor sap's frightened, and obviously gullible. In a spirited mood, Tattoi's going to make a few alterations to himself. A bit of biometal in his throat should change his voice; it's delicate "work" but something he's done before.]

[With another hiss of steam, he tests out the change...]

Fool! Why do you defile my final resting place?! For what purpose do you spill needless blood?!

If you wish to live, you will tell me your purpose here!

[Now it's the biggest and loudest burst of steam yet. He's probably going to draw attention to himself this way, but he's got escape plans. Totally. :|b]

[ASLFJDSLFKJD IF I HAD A BLADDER I WOULD TOTALLY PEE ON MY PANTS

JUST SAYIN'.]

MY PURPOSE HERE IS TO TAKE A P-P-PLEASANT NAP, STEAMY SPIRIT!!

[Now that that's said and done, he's just gonna chill behind this tree here and sob to himself about how there's no place like home.]

[The "spirit" offers no more words. Tattoi's running low on spare steam, so he can do just one more thing before he needs to refuel. The hissing starts up again, but continuous this time - if Ian could see Tattoi, he'd notice that his arm had changed form and steam was running through it.]

[Since he can't, though, all he might be able to notice is a crackle of electricity building up within the steam-spirit... and once it builds up enough, it's released in the form of a bolt of lightning. Aimed right at Ian, or the tree he's hiding behind; preferably the former. |Db]

[dflsdkfjlk! But he can't let this poor tree take the brunt of an attack for his sake! ;~;

SO HE TAKES THAT BOLT OF LIGHTNING LIKE A CHAMP.]

Owowowowowo-!

[Aaand he faceplants to the ground. Probably to weep to himself about his luck.]

[There's a maniacal cackle, which is all Tattoi this time. Slowly, the "spirit" shrinks back to its normal size, after which it'll... leave? Apparently this spirit has some business in town. :|a Of course, this is assuming Ian doesn't just stay faceplanted.]
