Eight → [video/action]
[The feed opens with a crash of something big falling to the ground, and then noises of a scuffle. However, the possibly-familiar noises of Haruhi struggling with someone -- "Quit it!" "Just stop moving, idiot!" -- are mixed up with a new target's voice this time:]
No way! I told you, I like my - nooooo, lemme go!
Just stop complaining and it'll all be over in a second!
[Another massive heaving sound and a loud thud and the video display clears up, revealing first Haruhi's gleeful face, then a pair of scissors, then scanning downwards onto the poor victim.]
I'm not complaining! This is...this is crazy!
[Larry's face is the picture of terror - or at least, utter shock and disbelief; after all, it wasn't everyday that a girl would suddenly come to his house to chase him around with a pair of scissors. He struggles, his back against the armchair that had fallen in the chaos, and tries to grab the hand holding the scissors that were headed straight for his goatee.]
No, this is exactly what we agreed upon!
["Agreed" being a heavy-handed word for "what I told you would happen and you didn't say anything at the time, or if you did I didn't listen." Haruhi's strength is surprising in a girl her size, however, and inch by inch the scissors approach closer to their goal...]
But...but we didn't agree on anything! [Larry's voice is louder and possibly shriller, even, as if the scissors were going to cut his throat instead of just his goatee. His free hand still grips Haruhi's, but trembles as it does so, unable to keep the scissors away.]
Sure we did! You forgetting is no excuse in the eyes of the law, you know. [The struggle continues for a long moment, until, with one mighty heave, the scissors reach their desired destination and then hungrily, even viciously snap shut with a clean-sounding snip sound.
Larry doesn't even answer to that. Instead, he just quickly reaches up to his chin, feeling the place where his goatee had once been, looking as if he had lost a friend, or an important memento. He breathes, and finally lets out a yell.]
Nooooo! It's gooone! I spent years growing that baby out! Whyyyyy?!
[ooc: Orange is Larry. Blue is Haruhi. Obviously. Expect replies from both.]
