week 1; thursday with steph, combo breaker!!!

[alchemenace]

[ so yesterday sure was a thing, but seeing as she was kidnapped by her partner yesterday, varian is on a quest! to find stephanie!

when he does, he calls out to her as he jogs with his perfectly non-injured legs to catch up to her who is probably not moving that fast ]

H-hey, Stephie! You're looking... upright.

[ oh my god let him die ]

Comments

[alchemenace]

[ well he obviously didn't expect that because he looks at her, surprised, but then he just gives a sad smile before looking at the floor ]

Right. Well, I.. I guess I just wish I could've gotten it right, for once.

[vigilantics]

You'll get it.

[ she looks serious, her usual smile replaced with a sad understanding. ]

It doesn't feel like it, but you will.

[alchemenace]

... Thanks, Stephanie.

[ he doesn't know if he believes it, but he knows he has to make things right, so. it's helpful.

but also: ]

But don't think that makes me forget how you shouldn't be walking around so much.

[vigilantics]

But if I'm not on the move then who are you going to heave a nice heartfelt chat with?

[ she's so bored. please. ]

[alchemenace]

You, but sitting?

[ he'll hang out with her just sTOP EXERCISING ]

[vigilantics]

[ ... SIGHS. ]

Let's go sit.

[alchemenace]

[ yay, sitting. there they go. to sit. somewhere. have i forgotten locations. yes ]

Maybe I could make something to help you walk along... So you can still get around the castle, but you don't permanently mess up your legs by constantly walking on stab wounds.

[vigilantics]

It's not my fault they don't know what medical equipment is here.

[ it is your fault for stomping your fucking foot ten minutes ago. ]

[alchemenace]

That's very true, and fair, except for the part where you stomped your foot on the ground to prove me wrong.

[ he was THERE ]

[vigilantics]

Don't tell anyone about that they'll kill me.

[alchemenace]

Hmmmm... Alright, but you'll have to owe me one.

[ he's joking. maybe. is he. ]

[vigilantics]

...

Is this a you tell me what you now kind of owe, or you'll just randomly show up later owe?

[alchemenace]

Uh... Randomly show up later.

[vigilantics]

[ mumbled, ]

Those are the worst kinds...

[alchemenace]

Of course, you don't have to take the deal. I could just tell everyone how you hurt yourself instead.

[ :3? ]

[vigilantics]

...

You run a tough bargain.

[ she holds a hand out. ]

[alchemenace]

Thanks, I try.

[ he shakes her hand. ]

But seriously, I would not recommend doing that again.

[vigilantics]

I wasn't expecting it to hurt that much.

[alchemenace]

You literally got stabbed yesterday, but yeah, sure. I can see how that could take you by surprise.

[vigilantics]

Okay, but I've been shot a few times and was fine?

[ ...

some of the times. ]

[alchemenace]

Well, that's also dependent on where exactly the arrows would hit you, isn't it?

[ what's a GUN ]

[vigilantics]

...

[ she covers her face in her hands. she hates time nonsense. ]

[alchemenace]

Am... I wrong?

[ ???? ]

[vigilantics]

More like... future arrows.

[alchemenace]

Oh. Shot by some other kind of projectile weapon. Got it. Heh. This whole mix and match of worlds is kind of a mess with communication, huh?
