Jav looked around as he and his wife stepped through the portal, still wondering what had been going on back in the infirmary ( Read more... )

She was a couple thousand points ahead as the song ended, but Boss grinned and turned to her.

"Let's do another one."

jeimu October 10 2007, 02:59:30 UTC

"Okay. Think you can handle moving up to Challenge?"

random_xtras October 10 2007, 03:34:15 UTC

"Sure," he said confidently. "I've done some at that level."

jeimu October 10 2007, 04:05:50 UTC

"Cool." She pressed the front buttons in what appeared to be a haphazard manner, selecting Afronova Primeval on Challenge mode, and making it so that her side didn't have arrows at the top to match to.

She was trying to make this interesting.

Boss watched with fascination. He wasn't quite as brave at pressing buttons as some of the others, so he was wondering what this was going to do.

jeimu October 10 2007, 04:47:41 UTC

She hit the green button that would start the song, then crouched slightly, her face set.

It was a fast one.

Boss was ready when this one started, and managed to keep up though he was wondering about the missing arrows on Jeimu's side of the game.

And then halfway through the song a piercing infant shriek of terror echoed through the rec room and he started and stumbled.

jeimu October 10 2007, 05:02:57 UTC

Jeimu did one better.

She fell right off the pad.

He stooped and picked her up, then set her on her feet and strode toward the sound to investigate.

jeimu October 11 2007, 13:54:17 UTC

"Ow."

Whatever she'd hit, she was pretty sure it wasn't supposed to bruise the way it was. She hobbled after Boss, leaving the machine to fail them out of the song and cycle into "Game Over" mode.

"T'under." Jav came up beside her and absently caught her hand. "What's the kid screaming for? Kal won't hurt it."

jeimu October 11 2007, 21:27:05 UTC

"Maybe he's used to his mother?" Jeimu shrugged, rubbing her back and wincing.

random_xtras October 11 2007, 21:36:44 UTC

"He hasn't got one," said a random Commando. "He's like Ang. Like us. They were going to throw them away, Charlie said."

"Them?" Jav pulled Jeimu close and gently rubbed her back for her.

Then his head snapped around as Ordo thundered past in the hall, Niner in close pursuit with a laughing blond baby held out in front of him.

jeimu October 11 2007, 21:38:48 UTC

She grunted slightly as he rubbed her bruise, then straightened a little.

"Okay, what was that about?" She thumbed after Ordo and Niner.
