Eighth Spell * Vaarsuvius * [Accidental Video]

[explosive_runes]

[There is an explosion, forceful enough to turn the communicator on]

By the--

[Whoever was talking decided not to finish the thought, because now they were running, if the sound of skidding feet was anything to go by. The video shows nothing but dark red.]

Damnation!

[There's the sound of a door opening and slamming shut.]

[Nothing but heavy breathing

[The fuzzy ball that is Henry trills in confusion]

[explosive_runes]

[A purple cat nudges Henry out of the empty robe on the floor, giving her body a rough lick, and picks her up gently in its mouth]

[white_beret]

[Henry's chill, purring away as she hangs in the cat's mouth. The lick only encouraged her to trill louder]

[explosive_runes]

[The cat gets on its side, placing Henry on its belly, trying to encourage her to cling there even when the cat gets up. Come on, Henry. Use those belly muscles!]

....are you dead, or what?

[It's impossible to derive how Darc feels from this question, given that the words are blunt as always, and his voice is still infected by the unsettling emptiness that has permeated it since his ordeal during torture week]

[Audio]

[explosive_runes]

[There isn't a response. If one listens carefully, one may hear a pitter-patter, but that could just be mice. Or imagination. One of the two.

There is no definite sound but the trill of a confused tribble]

[Audio]

[darc_nidellia]

Just....answer me already. Don't think I'm gonna come and look for you...

[The thought of leaving his suite at the moment is still highly repellent to him]

[Audio]

[explosive_runes]

[Sorry, Darc, at the moment, kitty-V is concentrating less on assuaging your worry and more on trying to escape before the demon catches hir. And, well, revealing that s/he stooped to turning into a cat to save hirself is really embarrassing.

All there really is a sound of is some quiet scratching--maybe static--and the purr of a tribble.]

[pyro_dynamic]

Looks like this is a constant thing.

[ don't mind the three eyed demon that's half stalking the network and half stalking the people with his Jagan. He's investigating the stuff that is going on right now. ]

[hisbutler_bound]

[He loves it when prey runs and slams the door open, smirking a little in the darkness until his eyes naturally adjust. Demons have no problem seeing in the dark.

That little el- ..... a cat. Sebastian is suddenly a pile of goo, down on his knee as he extends his hand] Ah, that is a dirty trick you know.

[In Person]

[explosive_runes]

[Vaarsuvius the purple cat freezes in place for a moment, heart racing and ears back, but after a moment, s/he realized that the guy wasn't attacking. Kitty senses... tingling...]

Merow?

[Translation: What?]

[V-kitty creeps forward tentatively, ears back but otherwise unaggressive.]

[In Person]

[hisbutler_bound]

[His eyes are only focused on hir and that hand remains still so it can come near. Ears laid back, creeping. It must be frightened. Sebastian grins a little though, quite aware of the scent around this one. He's not sure if this is the elf or a cat that belongs to it.

Those gloved hands open wide and proceeds to pick the other up, fingers squeezing around the ribs but not hurting, only enough to hold while his thumbs stroke the chest]

Ah yes. It's hard to with anything this cute. What to do with you?

[In Person]

[explosive_runes]

[GAH! Monster stroking chest monster st--wait, that actually felt kind of good. Really good, actually. Well, it wasn't like s/he was in hir regular form. Even when s/he had been turned into a lizard, s/he had allowed others to carry hir for practicality's sake.]

Purrrrr...

[How undignified. S/he would have to do something impressive later to make up for the really nice-feeling humiliation going on at the moment.]
