CRAZY EVENT DAY 3 SHENANIGINS

[sharpasafawkes]

[It's getting late, you're probably out (but hey, some of you could be safe and warm at home), and aside from the crazy people out, it's pretty much business as normal.

Which means it can be pretty easy to miss the sound of someone else around, or the footsteps that trail off and then come again]

Comments

[scanninggaydis]

I CAN'T. There's nothing I can tell you.

[sharpasafawkes]

Have you spoken with him at all?

[scanninggaydis]

[another low and humorless laugh]

He was worried about you. That you'd do something you'd regret when you snap out of...this. Whatever this is.

[sharpasafawkes]

I believe you...

[scanninggaydis]

[He's just waiting for the other shoe to drop, because it can't be that easy, there's something else, there's got to be something else.]

[sharpasafawkes]

-Which is a shame, because now you're what's either going to bring him here, or I need you out of the way regardless.

[scanninggaydis]

[Aaand he just breaths out, long and low, and closes his eyes.]

[sharpasafawkes]

The good news is that I don't need much of what you've got on you for that but... well there's only one way to make sure you don't get loose.

Well, two ways, but let's not go for the second one yet.

[scanninggaydis]

And what's that.

[Again with the flat and emotionless tone.]

[sharpasafawkes]

Putting it bluntly? break your limbs.

[scanninggaydis]

[Oh.

Oh.

OH.]

[sharpasafawkes]

The other one's death, Felix. Don't make me do that.

[scanninggaydis]

I'm not making you do any of this, Shaun.

[sharpasafawkes]

Yes you are, you could have just come with me and helped me find Cesare, that's all I wanted! And now I've got to do this to you so that you don't escape and then help him.

Do you think I want to be down here? God no! You're sitting where I was, that blood is my blood! Now I've got to do the same thing so he'll recognize the signs and come running... if he comes 'round at all.

[scanninggaydis]

[...Well, suddenly that makes this a million times worse.]

If you really think he's going to come running for me....you're wasting your time. He doesn't have any reason to do that.

[sharpasafawkes]

No, he's gone mad, but I don't know how much he's got left in him. He's got a temper when he goes, so it could work, but...

[He covers his mouth his his hand, it's getting hard to think and what made sense only a moment ago is slipping]

Listen, either way you need to stay here, and I really don't have time to argue.

[SO. down comes the first strike]

[scanninggaydis]

[There's....there's some screaming going on.]

[sharpasafawkes]

[Welp, that's gonna keep up for a bit as Shaun works, though his voices changes to something more... frightened?]

Stop that, stop that! Can't you be brave for one damned time?! Stop shaking!

[scanninggaydis]

[Well, it really isn't so much SHAKING as......actually legitimately struggling. As hard as he can.

Especially when/if he starts in on his right leg because no no no no why do you even need to do that!?!]

[sharpasafawkes]

[BECAUSE MOVEMENT

-but no yeah, he's not going for the prosthetic leg at all]

What happened to you, you're nothing more than a weak-

[A backhand across the face]

cowering-

[A crack across the ribs]

Idiot!

[And that was just a plain old cracked bone somewhere. After that he pulls back, breath shaky, and eyes not really focused.]


...Whos' brilliant plans just keep getting the people you love killed.

[scanninggaydis]

[Yeah, he's moaning in pain, but DAMN a lot of that is in reaction to the words as much as it is the physicality of the assault.]

....No, I....I'm not, I didn't...

[Gods, those eyes. REALLY ACTUALLY LOST IT.]

W-what is this even about?

[sharpasafawkes]

SHUT UP, I'm tired of having to listen to you all the time!

[BUT he looks down, almost like he's seeing someone different now and not quite sure how they got there.]

I'll be back when I'm done with Cesare.

[HE OUT]

[scanninggaydis]

[....Well, that's....great.

Definitely going to just...try and work his way out of the bonds. And possibly sob a little EVERYTHING HURTS.]

[sharpasafawkes]

[Well he's gonna be gone for awhile, so how good are you at undoing knots?]

[scanninggaydis]

[Not exactly his star skill.

But, on the other hand, super-motivation! So he's working super hard.]
