Consolation

ghastlygaster:

[✱ Another roar, right in Runi’s face. Green magic crackles around it, briefly, before disappearing.

It’s hard to tell if the beast even understands what they’re saying, and even harder to tell if it can respond in the same capacity.. poor thing.]

* [ROAR AT ME ALL YOU WANT BUDDY. They!!! Put!!! Their hand!!!! Right on that face.]

* [They won’t talk further, for now, but they’re definitely doing what they can to get the point across – they aren’t going away anytime soon.]

Consolation

ghastlygaster:

[✱ It turns and watches them as they approach, silent and still.. before abruptly charging towards them with the intent to consume them whole. Of course, with Runi just being a projection.. it doesn’t really do much of anything.

This seems to frustrate the beast, and it roars loudly, almost seeming to shake the void around it.]

* [YIKE. That’s something they’re going to have stuck on the mind for a while. They stand their ground, though, holding out their hand towards it again. Gotta keep firm with this…]

* { i know you’re hurting. i’m not going to go away just because you attack me. }

Consolation

* [Continued from here, closed w/ @ghastlygaster ]

* [The ceased wailing is a good sign, probably. They watch the beast warily, taking a tentative step forwards with an outstretched hand – palm up.]

* [Hopefully they won’t get attacked, but if they do… It’s just a projection, and they’ll keep trying. They seem determined about this.]

ghastlygaster:

* I DON’T REMEMBER SHIT.

* I JUST REMEMBER GOING TO SEE CUBESY, AND ALSO COLLECTING MANY SLUGS AND LETTING THEM LOOSE IN THE VOID.

* I SHOULD DO BOTH OF THOSE THINGS AGAIN AT SOME POINT.

* ah,

* well. at least… one of those isn’t entirely possible at least at the moment

* currently Cubesy is uh. missing.

* eight started off that dumbass plan of his, things kinda backfired on him though – but cubesy escaped while eight was distracted. Although he’s uh, just. Just Cubesy now. the other fragment that had been with him this whole time stayed behind to fend eight off.

* he’s become some sort of…. advanced mutation? i’m not sure what the specifics are because i haven’t exactly been able to see much but i think he forcibly fused with the rest of his fragments to make this horrible shambling…. thing….

* in any case i think steps are being made to undo that transformation but i don’t know how successful that’s going. cubesy doesn’t seem to have shown up since he fled initially. i know geist went looking for him but i don’t think he was successful.
