fake feather [video/action] FOURTH WALL EVENT; backdated to afternoon

[darkenedgales]

[Despite the city being covered with snow, the streets of Ecruteak are buzzing with life today -- which shouldn't be much of a surprise, given how many unexpected guests this world is having! Among those, several kids have appeared, and can now be seen playing in the snow... until Crow comes into view, at which point the children immediately run up

Hey, Crow, are those friends of yours from back home? [He smiles, still unaware of the fact that his own supernatural powers are back.]

[darkenedgales]

[Sadly, Crow won't be answering that question, because the very moment Jesus shows up (or even seconds before that), he feels a jolt of way too familiar throbbing pain in his right forearm, followed by bright, red light in this shape coming from it.]

What the-- Here?!

[Oh hell no. Gods? In Johto? What kind of a nightmare is this? He's not exactly in either shape or mood to fight gods right now (damn things are a pain to kill), not to mention the last thing he wants is to get the kids involved in that sort of duel. He looks around, searching for the source of his birthmark's reaction. Who is it this time? A Dark Signer? A Rune Eye duelist? An Emperor of Yliaster? Or maybe...]

... Jessie?

[Needless to say, that is probably the LAST person he expected to see.]

[martyrofbread]

[OK, so Jesus is CLEARLY confused about that. Why is... Crow staring at him like that.]

Eh? Is there... anything wrong? [He tilts his head to the side, not sure of how to react to that.

[darkenedgales]

[And the staring will continue. His Signer powers have never been triggered as a false alarm, so he figures the source of it is Jessie after all...]

... You're still asking? [In case his glowing forearm wasn't any indication...]

[martyrofbread]

[He sees the glowing arm, but he doesn't know why Crow is looking at him like that. What did he do anyway?]

We-well... your arm is glowing, that I can see... I just... don't know why... [Needless to say, Jesus is growing somewhat nervous about that.]

[darkenedgales]

[Crow exhales loudly. Okay, let's get this over with.]

... I've got a question for ya.

[Jessie, meet Crow's Serious Face (TM).]

Do you have anything to do with some god?

[martyrofbread]

[Uh Oh, his cover is BUSTED.]

Anh... hm... [Jesus scratches the back of his head nervously, not really sure where to begin.]

M-maybe. Just a little... [It's not like he's the SON OF GOD or anything like that.]

[darkenedgales]

"A little"? How "little" is that, exactly?!

[... He may be overreacting, but up to date, almost every person connected to gods he's met tried to kill him. Can't really blame him for being wary.]

[martyrofbread]

[Jesus certainly isn't going to blame Crow for being that way, specially with that background.]

We-well, since we are friends I guess I should, hm, be honest with you...

I'm like... the son of God. I mean, not literally... Is a little bit more complicated than that. [It involves a virgin being pregnant and all that... It's a really long story.]

[darkenedgales]

Son of a-- god. [He raises an eyebrow at that. He's dealt with a guy who tried to become a god himself, so perhaps this isn't that much weider...] Okaaay...

You're not... related to Earthbound Gods, though, right? [Still giving him a kind of suspicious glare, but at least he seems to have calmed down a little bit.]

[martyrofbread]

Ah, no I'm not. [He's glad that Crow doesn't look so angry anymore.]

But... just why do your arm glow while I'm around? [This is new to Jesus. And he has seen a lot of strange things.]
