[ We most certainly have a Reim, who has been oddly quiet, perhaps from some sort of sleep coma, or just a mere disappearance, but nonetheless, he's tangled up among the vines and thorny branches that seem to have sprung up over night.
His clothes are slashed and torn in random places, and his glasses are most certainly broken and dangling off his nose, barely hanging on to his left ear.
He walks up gingerly, absently noting the thicker vines to his right, sleeping peacefully, as he picks his way to where Reim is currently hung like a condemned man. Reaching out with both hands, he takes the glasses hanging askew on Reim's face and pockets it without a cheerful hum.
Then, he takes a hand and gently draws it across Reim's cheek.]
Why, if it isn't Mister Reim.
[Another gentle caress. He seems to chuckle.]
Won't you catch your death of a cold, sleeping out here in the open air?
[A hint of recognition, even without his glasses. This pleases Vincent, of course, for it saves quite a lot of explanation. Moving his hand downwards, he draws it slowly over the other's chest, picking at the torn scraps of cloth with vague distaste.]
Doesn't it seem like it? The forest does seem to have its own artistic flare.
[Like Reim up there, Dominic looks like a mess. His hair is messy (more so than usual, that is), his clothes are torn in some places, and there's a streak of red on his cheek where a bleeding but fortunately not deep cut lies.
Deja vu.
Anyhow, he's been running around, looking for Anemone just as he had been during the incident with the warehouse. He's definitely not used to this kind of terrain or having to survive like this, but he doesn't care at the moment.
He pauses for a moment to catch his breath, before he hears a noise. And his reflexes have been tuned to do one thing when he hears a noise: point his gun in its direction.]
He raises his arms in a mocking gesture, walking forward without a hitch. He stops when he is a good distance away from Dominic, and greets him with a smile on his face.]
[Well, isn't this the last person he wanted to see? Nevertheless, Dominic lowers the gun, although he doesn't let down his guard. Hopefully, Vincent will keep that distance.]
... Is this going to be a pattern?
[Dominic doesn't care about the weather either, no matter how much of a generic conversation starter it is.]
MOLEST AWAY, VINNY NIGHTRATmykubochanApril 21 2010, 01:38:54 UTC
[Things had been going swimmingly. Except for the part where he'd fallen from a tree because a really big cat had wanted to eat him, of course. He'd found Kubochan and apparently he'd been asleep for a month...!? And they'd been going to find somewhere safe, like caves or something.
When things went not so swimmingly. Instead, they went rather...running-ly. Somewhere in between staring at Kubochan, staring at the dinosaur things that was chasing them, and staring at Kubochan again, Kubochan had gone missing. One of the dinosaurs hadn't.
It went missing eventually, one tree climb later. Which left Tokito, panting, again, having swung down from his perch.]
...Dammit!
[Swearing, because this pisses him off. And because Kubochan was missing again. And dinosaurs!? He'll be catching his breath, looking, as people tend to look after such adventures, quite a mess. T-shirts and sweatpants don't make the best attire for a Jurassic Park adventure. One also tends not to wear shoes to bed
( ... )
AYE AYE <3333boat_lightsApril 21 2010, 01:49:25 UTC
[Swimmingly and runningly aside, Vincent considers this encounter to be very fortuitous indeed. What a familiar sight. And just when he had wanted a little distraction. What a nice thing it was, to have such luck on such a fine day.
A mild chuckle, and he reaches out his hand.]
You certain look like a fine mess this morning, Mister Tokito.
[He's a little jumpy right now, what with near encounters of being eaten and all that - when he hears someone else coming, he jumps up. When he sees it's you, he definitely moves away.
He might not remember your name, but he's not likely to forget the first person he saw upon arrival...and that you're a complete and utter bastard. Even if okay you did help him once. But. That's...you're just a total creep.]
[Haha, why so paranoid, Tokidoki-kun? He just wants to have a little distraction. Maybe something warm to cuddle for a while. You wouldn't bereft him of that, would you now?
He moves closer, one hand palm open in a gesture of peace.]
It's all right, Mister Tokito. I only wish to be of aid.
It's been a while hasn't it, Vincent?clueless_comApril 21 2010, 03:32:18 UTC
[What we have here is a napping persocom nestled in a very large bush. For some reason she's been in sleep-mode since this whole jungle business started so Chii is still blissfully unaware of Somarium's drastic change. Feel free to break her peaceful slumber~]
[He watches her for a moment, before walking closer with light steps. Upon within looming distance, he pauses delicately, before slowly lowering his face.
A kiss for a sleeping princess is only fitting, is it not?]
["This feeling...where is it coming from?" It takes a while for the kiss to fully register but when it does, she slowly starts to stir from her sleep. Eyes still closed, she mutters out a name.]
[And this would be something called a Ken. Messy hair, grimy clothes - the heat saw him trading his pajamas in for shorts and a tee-shirt, which right now isn't much of an improvement - and bare feet.
[Ken has, after his little adventure with the trees, finally managed to find his way back to solid ground. Unfortunately he hasn't found a lot else and sadly this includes both drinking water and anything to store it in. He's attempting to remedy both these points - he knows there are streams round here, he could see the breaks in the tree lines before; it's just a matter of finding one - when he hears a noise in the bushes and snaps to attention, tensing. If he's lucky that's gonna be something to eat, if he's not lucky--
[Yeah, he's not going to be lucky. Never is, really. When he catches sight of Vincent he almost wishes he'd taken his chances with the dinosaurs. At least those things don't try to annoy you to death. He straightens, though he doesn't look like he's about to relax.]
[And what a sight that is. Bare feet and grimy clothes -- he wrinkles his nose at that, for it's a distasteful thing, to be so dirty this time in the morning. However, he certainly can't fault the other. The circumstances are, after all, circumstances, and circumstances certainly can't be helped.
Walking closer, he raises a hand in the gesture of peace while simultaneously raising the other to cover an open-mouthed yawn.]
Hello, Mister... Ken, was it? Isn't this a fortuitous meeting.
[Of all the people he could have run into at a time like this wouldn't he just have to get Vincent. Vincent hasn't actually done anything to him yet aside from call him up at the worst possible moments and irritate the Hell out of him, but that was quite enough for Ken to be getting along with, thank you oh so very much.
[Honestly, he could quite happily have never given the guy cause to do anything more than annoy him over the phone. He didn't really want to meet Vincent at all - certainly he didn't want to meet him like this.
[Ken doesn't miss the nose-wrinkle or the look of mild distaste, and they both leave him varying degrees of irritated. What's this guy's problem? They're stranded in the middle of a damn jungle. What's he supposed to look like, an Armani advert?]
[He doesn't have much of an opinion on the other, merely that he is scruffy, and that he has an intriguing connection to a certain 'Takatori Mamoru', which seems to have also captured the attention of a certain Xerxes Break. And whatever Break deems interesting enough to play with, he will certainly follow suit.
Toying with the other's friends is even more enjoyable of a pastime, he finds. Friendship is such a delicate thing, and very little can pull and tug at the strings which bind.
Oh, and my friend would like to express undying love for your Ken for that last Armani line there. And I completely agree. You are an amazing Ken. *A*
He tilts his head.]
Oh? Whatever look are you referring to, Mister Ken?

And that hand. An automatic shiver, and even with blurry eyes and a cough brewing in his throat, he knows who it is. ]
Master Vincent. [ He seems almost dumbfounded, probably stuck between shock and disappointment. Of all the people -- ]
It wasn't my plan to, no. I'm afraid I've found myself a bit... tied up.
