[Accidental Video/ Action] [03]

[Shortly after the Mirror's message, anyone in Joe West probably heard a loud, panicked cry. Everyone who's not can hear it over the mirrors instead.

The feed clicks on after being knocked over and Demyx is freaking out. From what can be seen here, he's pale and pacing furiously. He keeps twitching, swinging out at something that isn't there, and ( Read more... )

[She may be one floor above, but Esme definitely hears that.

She runs out of her room in search of the source of the outburst immediately - she did think to snatch her communicator off her desk, just in case she might need it. As she runs down the hallway, she glances at the feed, frowning as she tries to make out what is happening.

Oh, God be good.

Demyx.

She doesn't know where his room is, but she follows the sound of his panic, which leads her one floor down. She knocks at the door to be polite, but her voice is worried, and there's a firmness in her tone that lets him know she won't take no for an answer. Not now.]

Demyx? It's Esmeralda. Demyx, you need to open this door right now.

Please.

No! You're not real! Y-you're just the Mist!

[She frowns at that. Her tone becomes softer, more reassuring.]

I am real.

[She tries the handle to see if it's locked (is it?). She leans against the door, testing it, assessing how hard it's going to be if she has to get in by any means necessary.

How can she prove to him that she isn't Mist? She honestly doesn't know enough about it to know how to disprove his fears, but there is no way she's leaving him like this.]

[The door's unlocked, but she might get blasted with water.]

There's too much Mist! You can't be!

[She had heard the sirens and seen the image of the rapidly-spreading Mist; both were horrible. She couldn't blame her friend for his anxiety, especially since the Mist had already hurt him in the past. But she couldn't leave him to face this alone, either.

She pushes against the door, frustrated, but she does not force her way in just yet.]

There is a lot of Mist, which is why I need to make certain you're all right - right now!

No you don't!

[And that's the last coherent thing Esme's going to get for a bit.]

[She sighs. She doesn't want to barge in, but social protocol hardly applies just now.

She opens the door.]

[Demyx is reaching for his sitar as soon as the door's open, but he's shaking and panicking so much he keeps tripping]

[She rushes forward, catching him before he can trip so badly he hurts himself. Sorry, Demyx, she knows you like your space, but she's a hugger.]

Shh, shh. You're all right, now.

[Demyx keeps trying to break free. The Mist combined with the sudden intensity of emotion (fear) have left him in a very not good spot mentally right now.]

[She doesn't let go - she shushes him softly, as though he were an upset child. She pulls back slightly, but keeps a hold of his hands. She'll try to talk him through this, if he lets her. She hopes it will give him something to focus on, and help him feel he's actively in charge of his circumstances, even if they are dire right now.]

Tell me what happened, Demyx.

Y-yeah, right! [He's still trying to break free, even if it's only half heartedly. If nothing else, he's stubborn.] G-give the Mist more ammo, sure. I'm not stupid.

[She moves back a little, but she's holding on to his hands.]

Demyx, you said the Mist stole from you before. If I were the Mist, would I even need to ask you?

[action] chansondeleau January 21 2012, 01:52:05 UTC
Yes.

[Let him goooooo]

To make it worse!

[She lets go of his hands, finally. She takes one more step backward, hoping that will help him calm down, since her nearness has the opposite effect.]

Is there nothing I can do for you? Nothing at all?

Make it stop!

[Demyx just sobs and clutches his head. This Mist is driving him nuts]
