[Archive] Fabric Face

Subject: [Archive] Fabric Face Fri May 14, 2010 12:04 am

<Regina>: A messy blond moutain of a women lumbered by, taking no notice 
meanwhile as she stacked up her arms full of abandoned, moldy old fabric
 rolls. Leave it to the fabric department store to be one of the few 
places unlooted. As she trundled by she whistled a tune, messy pale 
blond hair blocking her view from around the armful just enough so that 
she'd trip 

<Regina>: into a display of buttons, dropping the lot of it. "Ballsacks!"

<Regina>: ((HAVE A JO-ANN FABRICS

<Remmy>: [[FFFFF <3

<Epic>: ((LOL A FABRIC STORE, EXCELLENT

<SirRusty>: (( i suspect sparks is to blame for this

<Patria>: "Is that a challenge, sweetheart?"  She sneers before 
pulling away, shoving Cyrus
 roughly before jerking her head in a motion he can't see.  "Sorry, I 
don' do eunichs."

<Patria>: (( I thought about bringing her in, but really I don't know 
if there needs to be anymore charac-- fffff

<Regina>: ((DO IT

<Remmy>: [[brb <3

Patria
 jerks her head, thinking she 
hears something nearby as she half-frowns.  The woman snorts, grabbing Cyrus before shoving him in 
front of her, out into the open toward the noise.  "Move't sweetheart.  
Yer m'shield."

<SirRusty>: Clanging into the abandoned shop with much noise, an armored 
figure rolls deftly through what had once been a display window. The 
glass has long since been shattered, and the crunching of it's sandy and
 gravel-like remnants turns into thumping noise as the ball of steel and
 iron opens up to reveal a man. 

<Regina>: "Eh?" The blond looked up and over her rag-clad shoulder, a lazy 
blue eye gazing over at the... pair. "...aw hell, really? /really/? Can't a women get her 
clearance polyester in peace? What is this?"

<Epic>: Eyeing fellow life forms, Epic let out a
 little yell of excitement. She proceeded to attack a rack of colorful 
albeit dusty boas and stalked towards the small group, wrapped in all 
the purple ones she could find. "TANGELA TAN!" She exclaimed, visible 
and from a far distance away, and then bounced behind an adjacent rack. 
Her quick footsteps echoed as she ran 

<Epic>: around the store, hidden from 
view.

Cyrus jerks as Patria shoves him forward 
hearing the loud noise. "What the fuck is going on?!" he asks tensely, 
the little sexual threats from Patria
 forgotten for the time being.

<Regina>: ((LOL Regina: 
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS *runs*

<SirRusty>: Seeming almost shocked by the display mannequins near him, Sir
 Rusty looks over them muttering "The work of a gorgon.... these poor 
souls will never know-" The sound of the woman speaking jerks him out of
 his reverie as he stands up straight. "Milady!"

<Patria>: (( Regina 
wearing a leisure suit.  ffffff

<Regina>: My god, the crazy citizens of this place just seemed to have 
cropped out of the woodwork all at once. She couldn't help but turn a 
360, lost for a moment as the place came to life and she suddenly felt a
 pang of regret for not bringing Yanni with her. "Soooo.... how's the 
fam?" she'd ask the approaching pair tentatively.

<Regina>: ((LOL!

Patria
 sets her jaw, kicking over a 
shelf of thread before snorting a little.  "Don't know, sweetheart, 
maybe yer boyfriend 's back t'show y'yer place.  Hope y'like big girls, 
'cuz that's one big twat." 

<SirRusty>: "Why-" the armoured figure continues. "-I wasn't expecting to 
find so many still alive after the attack of a gorgon. Truly you must 
all be under someone's protection!" The armored figure clanged nearer, 
almost toppling a small row of shelves as they snagged one of his many 
armor plates.

<SirRusty>: As he neared, Sir Rusty couldn't help but overhear the topic 
of discussion. "Still your tongue, woman! There are children present! 
Have you no sense of decency?!"

Subject: Re: [Archive] Fabric Face Fri May 14, 2010 12:04 am

<Regina>: She couldn't help but snort, eyebrows perking as she took a step 
away from her, grabbing up a roll or two from where they fell about her 
feet. "Thanks, I let NASA rent out space in it on weekends."

<Epic>: "TANGELA USED VINE WHIP IT IS 
SUPER EFFECTIVE." The childish voice emerged again as a purple boa was 
thrown up into the air from behind the nearest stall and drifted slowly 
onto Rusty, its feathers inflicting no damage at all.

Cyrus pulled against Patria's grip angrily, "Let me go! A-and... 
what?" Cyrus blinked at Regina's comment, coughing 
uncomfortably, "She's not my partner!" he hissed angrily at Patria.

Patria gives Rusty a sour look before one corner of her mouth twitches 
into a faint grin.  That eye glances at Reggie, before flitting back to 
the now purple-clad Rusty.  "So t'faggot in t'armor is y'partner?  I 
think I like the NASA bitch better."

Remmy sat
 happily and contented underneath what might have once been the conveyor
 belt of a checkout area, legs pulled to his chest. He'd wait here. Yes.
 Adults were talking right now.  

<Regina>: She shook her head slightly. What had happened to all these 
people to make them so... utterly mad? And this had to be the 2nd person
 she'd heard use the term 'partner'. Was this some sort of gay soviet 
era resort? Or just an island where they put the loonies. The former 
sounded far more interesting but she didn't seem too keen on asking to 
find out,

<SirRusty>: The knight jumped in mock surprise as the purple feathers 
brushed against his shoulder. He yelled loudly "Hark! I am aggrieved!" 
and peeked over the shelf to spot the little girl hiding behind it. 
Hearing the woman's comment, he looks at her for another moment before 
setting his priorities. Which is yelling "RAWR" and chasing the little 
girl.

<Regina>:
 merely glancing back over 
before finding herself re-distracted by some of the buttons she'd 
knocked off the rack. Ohhhh nice.

<Cyrus>: "No" Cyrus said flatly folding his arms and shoving his 
feet into the ground as hard as he could to attempt to stop Patria from pushing him around
 more.

<Epic>:
 "Uh oh." Epic grimaced, the far-larger-than-she man having seen 
through her totally invisibleness. Looks like she had angered him sorta.
 Not really but it was more fun to think of this as a godzilla thing 
anyways so she scrambled onto her feet and ran in the opposite 
direction, screaming "AAAAHHHHHH".

<Epic>: She turned a corner and then 
suddenly a collision havings! So she was in a magical flight moment in 
the air for a second before falling onto her side and executing a neat 
ninja roll.

<Epic>:
 ((She collided with Cyrus.
 xD

Patria is amused, releasing Cyrus completely before stepping back away from the 
ball of feathers and little girl on the floor.  She sneers, before 
leaning down to shove her face in Epic's.  "Hey, kid."

<Remmy>: "...?!" Remmy 
popped his messy, curly-haired head out from underneath the register. 
"...why is there yelling...? Oh dear. Oh dear.."

<Regina>: Regina slung a 
lazy sort of salute at the odd couple as she meandered off towards the 
register, bouncing the rolls up into her arms so they wouldn't slip on 
through, whistling again

<SirRusty>: Rusty quickly clanked over,  picking up Cyrus and grabbing Epic with both arms, 
quickly raising her and dropping the purple-clad child on his shoulders.
 "My apologies, old man... And child, you are going to have to cover 
your ears while the adults speak for a moment".

<Remmy>: The boy nervously beings a scarred forefinger to his mouth and 
gently nibbles at it, green eyes peering about.

<Remmy>: And looks up.

<Cyrus>: "BWAH!" Cyrus's skinny frame was toppled by the 
little girl rolling into him, sending him tumbling awkwardly to the 
floor. "Aww hell what the fuck is going on?" he asks exasperatedly

<Remmy>: Spotting....a rather LARGE woman armed with bolts of fabric looming
 rather close to him.

<Cyrus>: "HEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING PUT ME 
DOWN!" Cyrus yells at 
rusty as he struggles in his arms, "I AM NOT FUCKING OLD!"

<Regina>: Who hadn't even noticed him yet, nearly stepping on the poor kid 
before she yelped, seeing him out of the corner of her eye as she reeled
 and fell over again trying not to squish him.

Subject: Re: [Archive] Fabric Face Fri May 14, 2010 12:05 am

<Epic>: Before she knew it, a demi-mohawk
 lady that looked very weird was in her face. "Hey." She answered, 
surprised and shy a bit. She wasn't very sure whether or not to comment 
on the face. "HEY!" Epic objected loudly at Rusty's unauthorized lifting- but 
then very interested in her newfound tallness.

<Epic>: She scanned the store from the 
height, distracted. "Oohhh~ oh hay, HALLO THAR!" She waved at the head 
who was peeking over the counter.

<Epic>: The counter thing. ((Argh 
register I meant register

<SirRusty>: Rusty releases Cyrus
 as he realises the man can stand by himself, before gesturing angrily 
at Patria with one 
gloved hand. "I did not mean to insult you, sir... And as for YOU, 
WOMAN. Has no one taught you to watch your words with children in the 
room?"

<Regina>:
 ((AW YEAH, TALKIN TO MY MOM
 AND RPIN' MULTITASK GO

<SirRusty>: (( can't stop you know... they call you mr.farenheiiiit

<Epic>: ((I DON'T GET IT 8'D

<Remmy>: "WHY ARE YOU YELLING---oh hi." Remmy peered up at Reggie, eyes wide and deer-like. He 
stares at her blankly for a moment, before smiling distantly. "You're 
tall, ma'am," he states obviously, nodding in affirmation at Regina.

<Remmy>: "......"

<Remmy>: ".....are you buying those?", he asks innocently, pointing at the 
fabric Regina had 
clutched in her arms.

Cyrus
 huffs indignantly as Rusty sets him down. "Screw you all I am getting 
out of here," he grumbles before beginning to blindly stride away from 
the general commotion.

<Rusty>: "SIR" Rusty yells- 
"THERE'S A SHELF IN THAT DIREC-"

<Remmy>: [[fffffff, derpy kid with mind destroyed by drugs GO GO GO :,,D

<Epic>: Epic
 felt guilty for the old man leaving, even though he didn't seem hurt or
 anything. "Noo don't go. I won't bump into you again I promise!" 
Something was lacking in this exclamation. Guilt, maybe.

<Regina>: Regina could only
 blink, sitting up a bit as she tugged what she'd dropped up into her 
arms. "Uh- yeeeahhh more or less." She said, taking a little knick-nack 
pot from the counter beside her to set at the register. "I work on the 
barter system." The blond commented, standing back up again, gloved hand
 tugging at the counter to aid in ascent.  

<Epic>: She then readjusted her voice and repeated the sentence 
partially, this time with a guilty intonation. "I won't bump into you 
again ;v;"

<Epic>: "There are monsters out there!" She added, hopeful. It was true!

Cyrus crashes into the shelf falling head 
over heels and flipping over the shelf over to the other side.

<Rusty>: Rusty winces in 
sympathetic pain.

Patria
 looks at Rusty in a way that says "Are you my fucking
 mother?"  Her good brow arches before she jerks her head a little.  
"Fuck kids.  Y'act like a kid in this place is innocent.  Yer full 
o'shit if y'really bel've that."

<Epic>: "EEeep!" Epic winced as well, having the impression this was her 
fault too. She accidentally pounded Rusty's helmet in sympathy.

<Cyrus>: "Hhhhhhhhuuuu, ow..." Cyrus comments. His head 
ringing in a most unpleasant manner. His stomach gives a lurch and Cyrus's eyes widen and his 
hands fly to his mouth. Not now not now not now not now...

<Rusty>: Rusty looks away 
from Cyrus's crash site,
 first at Patria's bold 
statement then down as Epic's pounding forces his head low for a 
second. "I-"----

<Epic>: Epic
 then eyed Patria, 
tilting her head and smiling. "I fought a dog monster, you know! And I 
killed it! But I'm still innocent cuz it was self-defense." She nodded, 
naively proud of her achievement despite everything.

<Remmy>: "You work at a bar, what, yes?", Remmy asks, removing his fingers from his mouth, smiling. 
"That's cool----I think my mom did that," he adds, oblivious to what Regina actually said. The 
teen pulls himself to his feet and dusts off the front of his hoodie, 
extending a scarred hand to the hulking blonde. "Hullo. My name's Remmy, ma'am." <3

<Rusty>: "Why you.... This is a world for redemption! Not that someone of 
our moral fiber would understand." Rusty glared at Patria
 from inside his helmet.

<Patria>: "...Impressive, kid.  I almost shit m'self t'first time I 
saw one o'those mongrels.  Things ain't s'posed t'have two fuckin' 
mouths."

<Regina>: "Remmy... 
righht." She mumbled, watching the dispute from that scarred type women 
escalate. "Hey, tell you what fluffy, why don't we hop this joint." she 
said, not really giving him a chance to decline as she shouldered her 
goods and tugged him out by the hand he'd given her.

<Cyrus>: "uuuuurrrrg" Cyrus makes noises from his crash site, 
being ignored.

<Epic>:
 "Yeah, our moral fiber! 
My mom always told me you had to have a lot of fiber. Maybe the old man 
over there didn't eat enough fiber and that's why he's having problems!"
 ...The cheer went out of her voice abruptly as she realized something 
was REALLY wrong. "Are you... ok?" D8

<Rusty>: Rusty moved to help
 Cyrus up again, but 
stopped mid-crouch as he saw the man heaving. He quickly took Epic off his 
shoulders and put her aside.

<Rusty>: "I suggest you leave now, child. I must deal with A DEMON."

Cyrus rolls over onto his stomach away from 
the two standing over him, still heaving and resisting the urge to puke.

Patria digs in her ear with a dirty pinkynail, glancing at it before 
looking back up at Rusty
 with that one bright eye.  "Bullshit, this world is anarchy.  this 
ain't some baby-makin' love-in hippie bullshit."  She stopped, looking 
past Rusty at Cyrus before arching a brow.  
"Bulimic crazy fag."

<Rusty>: Rusty began 
wrestling with Cyrus, 
trying to get him up and to point him away from the inside of the store 
gathering. "NOT NOW WOMAN! ESCAPE WHILE YOU CAN!!!"

Subject: Re: [Archive] Fabric Face Fri May 14, 2010 12:05 am

<Epic>: Against Rusty's 
advice, the little girl actually went to Cyrus and patted his shoulder insistently. "Do you 
need a cup of water? Um..." She glanced around the adults in the room, 
hoping someone would come to help. She felt really bad and this was 
probably her fault.

<Epic>: Her hopes got up and Rusty
 came to his aid- oh wait, he was doing something else entirely. "Hey! 
STOP IT!" Epic
 yelled at him, unsure of where to kick. He was covered in armor. She 
grabbed onto Cyrus' arm 
and pulled, trying to get him out of Rusty's grip.

<Patria>: "Fuck naw, If'n there's a fuckin' fight 'M fuckin' GAME.  
Bring that shit out."  She shifts, her leg shooting out to kick a metal 
shelf to the floor, her hand snatching it before it clattered to the 
floor as she grinned. "Hey kid, back t'fuck off unless y'wanna get 
bled."

Cyrus couldn't hold back any 
longer and he puked, a parasite came sliding up his throat and its 
spindly legs came writing out of his mouth, attempting to push their 
ways out. He frantically pushed at both Rusty and Epic, trying to get them off him as the 
parasite slid out of his mouth...

<Remmy>: "Whoa--!!"  The boy stumbled along at Regina's side, being tugged along by her strong 
calloused hand, it almost completely enveloping his much smaller one. 
"Ma'am--ma'am---where are we going?", he chokes out, surprised and maybe
 a bit nervous too. 

<Regina>: "Where I can hear myself think." She said, looking back at... 
what she could only relate it to as a black spindly /lobster/ came crawling' out of some 
dude's mouth. "Oh... DUDE, no, oohhhh no that's auughhh." she turned, 
shivering as her tongue hung out, the women doing a 'oh god oh god 
gross' dance on the spot before hurrying away with him quicker. 

<Epic>: Epic
 stared in amazement at the parasite, annoyed by the rude lady's orders.
 "People who don't believe in teamwork get killed, and this is way less 
freaky than a dog with two mouths!" The child proceeded to drop-kick Rusty behind the knees, 
aiming for him to fall onto and crush the parasite.

<Epic>: (Which she thinks is kind of cute but hey, self-defense.)

Patria laughs, shrilly as she almost prances around Epic and Rusty, going right for that 
parasite as she swings that shelf a little too gleefully. 

<Rusty>: "Quick-" Rusty 
yelled, just as a pair of tiny legs took the balance out of his left 
knee. His attempt to crush the parasite with his gloved hand goes 
wayyyyy off and instead he lands a solid clothesline to Cyrus's face, tripping and 
falling flat on his stomach. "Kill it before it feeds!!! QUICKLY!!!!"

<Remmy>: Remmy stares 
blankly at the parasite as it comes, writhing, twisting, clicking madly 
out of the old man's mouth.

<Remmy>: "....oh."

<Cyrus>: The parasite slides out of Cyrus's mouth just soon enough
 to escape the shelf and fist coming at it, luckily, Rusty knocked Cyrus's head away from the shelf coming down upon 
him, but the metal clips his noise and Cyrus makes a noise of pain.

<Cyrus>: Cyrus lays choaking and bleeding from his nose on the 
ground as the parasite skitters to the saftey of the store shelves, 
quickly expanding and grown larger.

<Remmy>: He looks up at Regina,
 eyes wide. "Naw, dont worry, that's just Cyrus, sometimes that----WHOA!!!" The boy is cut off 
as Regina starts to drag
 him away with a bit more urgency.

<Epic>: Unwilling to recognize the failure of her genius, Epic 
exclaimed "THAT WAS PART OF THE PLAN!" and ducked to avoid Patria's shelf (wow she was 
strong @v@), bounced off Rusty's
 back and attempted to land her feet on the parasite to crush it 
herself- but it saw her coming or something because it managed to 
scuttle off with that insectoid speed.  

<Regina>: "Oh? ... /Oh/? That's 
not 'oh', kid, that's /fucked up/! What is it about this place? What's 
some kid like you even doing here?" she had to ask, lookign down at him 
as she tried to lead him across the street and out of view of the place,
 arm still loaded with fabric as she tried not to drop it. Especially 
not the fleece one with the hello kitties.

<Regina>: Yanni would love that one, oh yes.

Patria follows the parasite, trying to smash the fucker with her shelf 
as she starts knocking stuff over to reach it.  "C'mere you 
motherfucker!"

<Remmy>: [[dhmfbdmbgdm hello kitty fabric for Yanni, oh god yes, fff <3

<Epic>: "I DIDN'T CHOOSE TO BE HERE, YOU MEANIE BO MEANIE!" Epic stuck 
out her tongue at Regina,
 clambering up onto a shelftop in the meanwhile. "You should all look 
for it too or you're just big STUPID HEADS." She added.

<Epic>: (WOOPS, I THOUGHT YOU MEANT EPIC, NOT REMMY)

<Epic>: \(I TAKE BACK THE FIRST SENTENCE)

<Regina>: ((LOL

<Regina>: ((OH GOD LOST

<Rusty>: Rusty bent his back
 as he tried to get up, just as a large metal shelf smacked him hard in 
the shoulder plates. "Unf-".

<Cyrus>: The parasite let out a screech 
and scuttled away from its attackers. It was still growing, and growing 
and growing... it was quickly approaching "large dog" size...

Patria cackles, looking entirely too happy as she leaps, aiming to land 
on that insectoid creature with the edge of the shelf and her full 
weight.  

<Rusty>: Losing his breath for a minute, Rusty finally got up and patted Cyrus lightly on the cheek. "Come on... You 
must be still alive old man, tell us how to kill this thing!!!". Holding
 him with one arm cradling he back of Cyrus's neck, in classic movie posture.

<Epic>: The kid ignored the distraction of epic fails surrounding her at the 
time. Her adrenaline was keeping her focused. "It's there!" She pointed 
and squinted at the space between two aisles, having found her target. 
It looked like it was... growing?! 

Remmy peacefully
 let himself be led out of the store and across the street by his new 
acquaintance. He started to hum, grinning. "Why you want the cloth, 
ma'am? You gonna make something?"

<Cyrus>: Cyrus was still laying upon the ground moaning, he was 
still bleeding profusely from the nose, the taste of blood mixing with 
the bile and vile slime of the parasite. "Crud id before id ged too 
bik," Cyrus whimpered 
through his broken nose, "Go for d eykes... shell id hard..."

<Regina>: This kid had to be a bit mad, why was none of this phasing him? 
"Uh, me and a buddy found a place to stay, but it needs a pallet 
change." She muttered off-handedly, handing him a couple reams so she 
wasn't fumbling them. "Doesn't this phase you? It's like this whole 
island is mad- where /is/ 
this?" She had to ask. 

<Cyrus>: Patria actually connects with the parasite, which seems 
to have stopped growing just past big-dog size. Instead of crushing it 
however, the metal shelf is stopped by the shell covering its top, 
nearly knocking the parasite a bit lower on its feet. It took the 
opportunity to leap upon Patria,
 a long tentacle/tail/tongue thing coming from one end to wrap around

<Cyrus>: her chest as it took her to the 
ground.

<Rusty>:
 Rusty lay Cyrus down gently like a fallen comrade, whispering softly
 as he dragged his fingers over Cyrus
 eyes, whispering "It's ok... no one can hurt you now..." Before 
realizing that Cyrus's 
eyelids aren't covering anything. Awkwardly, Rusty settles with laying down the man 
gently.

Patria laughs louder, that shelf discarded as the 
tongue/tail/ajkdhfs thing wraps around her chest.  She punches at the 
creature's eyes, grinning as wide as she can as she fights back.  "Eat 
this, cockswabber!"

<Epic>: The black-haired girl screamed, seeing that funny looking woman 
from earlier attacked. She scrambled towards her quickly, yelling 
"YOU'RE JUST A PERSON WITH A FUNNY FACE WHO SAID HEY THERE BUT I DON'T 
WANT YOU TO DIE!" And had to use her whole body to grab onto the 
parasite from behind and attempt to pry it off Patria. 

<Remmy>: [[/derp.

<Remmy>: [[Remmy goes off now, who to beeee~

Subject: Re: [Archive] Fabric Face Fri May 14, 2010 12:05 am

<Epic>: ((Stop the idle banter and aid us in our noble and urgent task, 
inner!Rusty says

<Epic>: ((Ubawwh bye Torren ;v;

<Epic>: ((I said that here because she seems to be off the main Dirge 
site but idk if she's even here now /fail

<Cyrus>: Epic's valient efforts are wasted, as 
the parasite has wrapped itself firmly around Patria. The parasite screeches as Patria punches at its eye, 
recoiling a bit but quickly recovering by clutching with its claws and 
bringing its toothy maw towards her shoulder to bite.

Patria shifts, actually trying to bite the creature's eyes back as she 
digs her fingers into the eyes on the opposite side.  Patria doesn't seem to notice 
the bite, at least not yet anyway. 

<Cyrus>: Cyrus flails indignantly a bit at Rusty as he attempts to be melodramatic, and
 the hands on his face really HURT at the moment thanks. As Rusty sets him down Cryus 
gingerly attempts to stem his bloody nose, "Aaaargh..."

<Rusty>: Rusty gets up and 
looks sternly at the parasite before yelling loudly "Foul beast! Prepare
 to be SLAIN!" Building up speed from inside he shop, 350 pounds of man 
and armor collide with the parasite's side in a football-style tackle.

<Cyrus>: The parasite pulls back, ripping a
 good chunk of shoulder off Patria,
 just in time to get tackled by Rusty.
 The force is enough to dislodge it from Patria, although its claws leave several deep 
scratches as they're removed from her flesh. It collides with the floor,
 and when Rusty gets up,
 it's twitching and crumpled but still alive and rolling over to get up

<Epic>: The sheer horror of this scene was only increasing Epic's sense 
of urgency. "HELP, SOMEONE HELP HER!" Her eyes couldn't get any wider 
but she was nonetheless shocked and relieved by Rusty's intervention. She took advantage of 
the parasite's momentary paralysis

<Epic>: To stuff large amounts of unrolled fabric as deep as she could 
into its face

Patria
 ignores the pain, fuck the 
pain, it's just something else to get this fucker back for.  She rolls 
as the monster is ripped off of her, actually screaming in pain and 
anger before snatching up that bent, messed up shelf and moving to 
attack the creature once more.

<Epic>: ((Substitute face with throat if you need clarification

<Rusty>: Rusty doesn't allow
 the beast to recover, jumping at the creature's mouth and reaching 
between the fabric rolls with both arms. In the same motion one would 
associate with "parting the waves", he expands his chest and puts his 
arms out.

<Epic>: ((Not fabric rolls... just, unrolled fabric :3 I hope the 
parasite chokes on it all nice and clean uhu 8'DD

<Cyrus>: The onslaught is too much and 
there is a bit of a cracking noise and the parasite spasms on the ground
 frantically, before falling into death twitches common to bugs.

<Remmy>: #classycastle

*** Remmy is now known as Merinski

Patria
 wobbles, her chest heaving as 
she drops the shelf with a clatter before slumping to her knees.  She's 
still grinning like a maniac, blood soaking through her top rapidly.

<Epic>: To her dismay, once Epic's body realized that the threat had 
passed, it finally hit her. Her nose had begun to drip and her eyes 
teared up as she went up to Patria
 and tugged on her sleeve, almost sobbing as she spoke. "Yo-you're 
really injured, a-and it's my f-fault, and I- I'm sorry!" She cried, 
wiping her face constantly, spreading the snot all over it.

<Cyrus>: "FUDK FUDK FUDK!" Cyrus curses to himself, as he
 finally manages to stop his nose from bleeding. He sits on the shop 
floor, feelign utterly and totally filthy, covered in blood, slime, bile
 and grit.

Patria blinks at Epic, looking down at her snotted arm before 
looking at the girl again.  "What?  Fuck naw, mm..."  She faded into 
nothing before flopping over as she passed out abruptly. 

<Rusty>: Rusty looks over to
 the wounded woman, trying to decide whether or not to drag the child 
away from her. "It's no one's fault she was hurt... Most definitely not 
yours, child." He looked to Patria.
 "And you... I'd get that bandaged or you will pass out from blood 
loss."

<Rusty>:
 "- Or maybe you could just 
faint right there." He sighed as he began dragging her into the textile 
store.

<Cyrus>:
 Cyrus gets to 
his feet and begins feeling his way towards the door, hoping to escape 
before anyone breaks out the torches and pitchforks for his little 
monster spawning...

<Noir_>: Noir bursts through the very door Cyrus is inching towards, her dress soaked 
with the blood streaming freshly from a bruised looking nose. Her hand 
is still on the door, blocking the mans way- with her head tilted down, 
her eyes glare directly at Cyrus.
 Through gritted teeth, "Just what the hell have you been doing?"

*** Patria is now known as Mika

<Epic>: Epic
 followed Rusty and 
Patria closely, continuing to wipe her face and curse herself for crying
 like a baby- she gave Cyrus
 a nervous glance on the way there. How did that thing come out of him, 
and were there more on the way? Her train of thought was put on hold as a
 not-quite-immaculate but white-clad lady came inside.

<Cyrus>: Cyrus practically jumped at his partner's voice. "I wad 
jud wadding for you inside 'caud all dese dogs showed up den all these 
people cameb in an now I have a broked node!" Cyrus said frantically.

<Mika>: "Oh!  What a pretty button!"

<Noir_>: "Well," Noir began, the words 
hissing still through her very clenched jaw, "I was outside. All good. 
AND THEN YOU KNOW WHAT?". She took stomp towards the man, a finger 
prodding into his chest harshly, "MY NOSE COLLAPSED ON ITSELF. WHY," She
 prodded him again, "THE HELL," prod, "CANT YOU," a rather hard poke to 
the ribs, "CANT YOU STAY UNINJURED"

<Epic>: She finally just looked up and Rusty and asked "Can I help? Should I get someone to 
help?" Thinking that dealing with anything else than saving Patria's 
blood and stuff had to come later.

<Rusty>: Rusty's helmet 
snapped again as he heard the yelling. He whispered to Epic "Get me 
some cloth, child. And maybe ask the nice lady... not the loud one, to 
help."

Subject: Re: [Archive] Fabric Face Fri May 14, 2010 12:06 am

Mika picks up the button before following 
the trail of blood into the fabric store curiously.  "Is someone hurt?  
Oh!  It's a mess in here."

<Cyrus>: "WELL ID WOUB FUDKING HELPD IF 
YOU WOUB STOP ABANBNING ME ALONE ALL DUB TIME!" Cyrus yelled back at her, too injured and 
pissed to hold back his rage. "Andb id

<Cyrus>: 's my node dat's brokden yours id
 judst bruised!"

<Epic>: Epic
 nodded and ran up to Mika,
 who was probably what Rusty
 meant by nice lady. "She's hurt very bad." The child nodded and sniffed
 for emphasis, pointing towards Patria. "Knight dude needs help. I'm 
going to get fabric!" She began dragging a nearby roll of fabric from 
the section, with a little difficulty. It was heavy.

Mika watches Epic
 with mild confusion before shifting to help the girl carry the fabric 
toward Rusty and Patria.
  "Oh!  That's where the blood came from!  We need to wrap her up..."

<Rusty>: Rusty nods, looking
 again at the fighting partners as he lay down Patria gently. "Yes... 
she has a foul mouth but fought bravely. Her scars are well-earned, 
apparently."

<Noir_>: Noir hissed again, sounding 
remarkably like a deflating tire. The hand that had been prodding at 
Cryus clenched, holding now onto his stained shirt. "Thats not the only 
thing thats going to be broken if I cant leave you to fend for yourself 
for 2 minutes".

<Epic>: A worried expression came onto Epic's face, unfamiliar with the 
expression. "We're not going to mummy-fy her, she's not dead!" She 
squeaked, her voice small due to the strain carrying the roll- though it
 was better than before now that someone was helping. She wished she 
were stronger.

<Cyrus>: "Yob lefb me for dwo HOURS in a 
hebby dog area!" Cyrus 
said indignantly, although he suddenly seemed to think better of 
agitating his partner further and said, "Can web find sombfing to help 
mah node please?"

<Epic>: ((Argh I repeated expression with two different uses. THE WORST

<Mika>: "N-no!  no mummys!  Mummys are scary!"  Mika grabs the roll, dropping it before 
tearing it as she best can and making a compress for Patria.  The blood 
was icky and gross and warm, but she would have to deal with it for the 
cute little girl.

<Rusty>: Rusty gets up. "I 
have to stop this before we get a repeat. The old man gets excited and a
 demon escapes... we can't have this happening again. One of two things 
has to happen... Either we don't excite him, or we make sure he can't be
 excited again." He looks threateningly in the bickering Duo's 
direction.

<Noir_>: Noir scowled, seeming to have to 
contemplate if she wanted to keep fighting or just go with the 'help her
 partner' thing. Well, maybe he was already bleeding enough for one day.
 Wordlessly, she lets go of his shirt and looks over Cyrus's shoulder, for the first time 
seeming to notice there are others in the room. She notices a very 
oddly-attired man staring i

<Cyrus>: Cyrus's torch and pitchfork senses are tingling again, 
"Nior web shoud really be gedding oud of here..."

<Noir_>: n thier direction, and glares 
back, not breaking eye contact with Rusty as she responds to Cyrus, "Yeah, I think we should"

<Epic>: Epic
 just blinked at Mika, 
not wanting to respond because she didn't feel like being offensive and a
 know-it-all right now. Still, mummys weren't alive. Adults nowadays, 
believing everything they see on TV. Then what Rusty said shocked her. She glared at him, 
wanting to kick him in the shins.

<Epic>: "There aren't many people here. Don't kill people, you Poo Poo 
Head."

<Rusty>:
 Rusty keeps his gaze on the two as the 
fighting finally stops. Without looking away, he answered Epic "It's 
not nice to call people names. Or to yell at your partner."

<Mika>: "Y-yeah!  Don't kill them, they might be able to help us!"  She 
looked up at Rusty long 
enough to talk before working on Patria once more.

<Epic>: "You're not my partner, Jask is! And Jask is soooooo much taller 
than all of you." She added proudly, crossing her arms. She wasn't quite
 sure where Jask was right now. But then Mika agreed with her and she stopped worrying so that
 she could pounce-hug the nice lady in support, staring at Rusty all the while. "You 
should listen to her, she has a lot of that

<Epic>: moral fiber stuff you wanted!"

<Cyrus>: Cyrus begins quickly walking away, runs into the door 
frame, cussing loudly as his nose cried out even more. He rights his 
trajectory and walks as briskly and as casually as he can.

<Cyrus>: *out the door.

<Mika>: "Fiber is good for you, it keeps you healthy!"  She nodded in 
agreement with Epic,
 finally finished with Patria... The woman did look a bit like a mummy 
now that you mentioned it... But that cute pink and white kitty fabric 
was a nice touch!

<Rusty>: Rusty finally 
breaks his staring contest with the white-haired woman, and looks down 
at the two working on Patria. The sight of Epic clutching onto Mika was enough to melt his 
big Rusty heart. "I 
swear I will not do anything to harm them.... But that fabric is sure to
 hurt our patient's dignity."

<Noir_>: Noir is no help to Cyrus's momentary 
misdirection- as she is still having the stare down contest with Rusty, her feet planted firmly
 on the floor. Her eyes suddenly move, lowering to Patria. There's a 
slow, strange look that paints across her face- a mix of suprise and 
something a little off. Without turning, she grabs Cyrus's hand to stop him from moving 

<Noir_>: further away, asking, "Is she 
dead?"

<Mika>:
 "But it's cute!"  Mika hugs Epic back, before looking 
back at Patria.  "I don't know... Her chest is moving..."

<Cyrus>: "Ibd don'd knob I'm blindb," Cyrus says hotly on instinct 
however, on a second thought of the statement he freezes and says, "She 
idn't id she?" Fear began creeping into his voice...

<Rusty>: "She's a warrior... It would take more than this to kill her. The 
fire in her words convinced me." Rusty turns to the aisles, giving a quick look around for 
rope.

<Noir_>:
 Noir ignores the snap of Cyrus's response, her ears instead choosing to focus on 
the fear that had creapt into that last bit. A small smile flickered 
across her face before she could recompose herself. She gave a tug on Cyrus's hand and moved 
foward, stepping a far from Rusty
 as she could while getting to the others, "We better go see".

<Epic>: Epic
 snuggled up to Mika, 
greedy for affection. It was hard to find it in the Pit, and the little 
girl missed her mommy very badly, though she instinctively took care not
 to think of her family a lot- knowing what had probably happened to 
them for Epic
 to be brought here in the first place. "Thanks, mister Knight." She 
said, smiling at him finally.

<Cyrus>: Cyrus nodded dumbly at Nior, following her as she led him
 by his hand. "She wab fiding a bug fromb me..." he said, trailing 
off...

<Rusty>:
 A child's smile. A pang of 
nostalgia and pain crept into Rusty's
 heart, lancing straight through his tough armor plating to the man 
within. He didn't know why he felt this way, just that he had definitely
 lost something very important to him. And Epic reminded him of what that was.
 "No problem." The words slipped out of his voice solemnly.

Mika seems to like the attention as well, beaming (literally, she's 
glowing like a lightbulb now) before trying to wipe her hands on the 
excess fabric.  She looked down at Patria, who seemed to be paler than 
she should be before looking back up at all the other people.  "I'm Mika!"

<Noir_>: Noir stopped. They were standing 
over Patria now, with the small crowd. Her eyes darted to Rusty, who seemed distracted 
by the small child snuggling up to another girl. Back to Patria...who 
was, as they had said, breathing. "She's alive", Noir noted to Cyrus rather  blandly.

<Cyrus>: "Oh..." Cyrus breathed a sigh of relief before 
catching himself being to likable, "/good/,"
 he says finishing with a huff.

<Epic>: Epic
 was eyeing Patria again- people dying was really scary, and now that 
she had someone to be clingy with she showed it like a frightened puppy.
 The old man and mean-looking girl had come to see, and it was nice to 
know the old man didn't do it on purpose. "Is it a disease? Is there 
meddicine that can cure it?" She asked from under Mika's arms, curious.

<Rusty>: Rusty 
absent-mindedly continued to look for string before yelling from behind a
 shelf "Maybe you could take a look at the old man's nose? If you need 
me to snap it back-"

<Mika>: "She's bleeding a lot, I think that's bad."  She looked back at Rusty before nodding, looking
 up at Cyrus before 
starting to reach up and poke at his nose.  "IT's all puffy and turning 
funny colors, is that bad?"

<Cyrus>: Cyrus recoiled at the idea of having his nose snapped 
back. "NO! Ids fine I'b brodken my node before! I'd rabber id sday 
crookedb!"

<Cyrus>:
 "GAH! Don pboke it Mika!"

<Noir_>: Noir gives off a low rumble, 
slapping Mika's hand 
down from touching Cyrus.
 She would rather it not be touched- her's was still throbbing lightly, 
though not broken like her partners. "Yes, let the old man live with his
 deformity. he's used to it".

<Rusty>: Rusty yelled again 
from behind a shelf. "Ah-HA!!! Rubbing Alcohol!!! This'll kill the 
infection in his nose, and I'll tie the woman a tighter bandage to stop 
the flow."

Subject: Re: [Archive] Fabric Face Fri May 14, 2010 12:06 am

Mika looks hurt that her hand is slapped 
away, pouting a little at Noir before she sits back on the floor.  
"O-Okay."

<Rusty>: Rusty emerges from 
behind all the shelves, helmet open. He bites down hard on the cap of a 
rubbing alcohol bottle and rips the cap off. "Here- the least you can do
 is clean it. It's better to avoid disease and infection at that age."

<Epic>: Epic
 stuck her tongue at Noir, sitting down at the same time as Mika. It was hard not to since
 she was clinging to her and everything. She then punched the air with a
 fist and gave Rusty a 
cheer. "Yay, disinfectant!"

<Epic>: "So who is everyone? My name is Epic."

<Cyrus>: "Y-yed imfection wouldb be 
bad..." Cyrus says 
uncertainly, taking the bottle. He is not enjoying the idea of touching 
his nose at the moment no not one bit...

<Mika>: "I'm Mika."  She 
repeated herself, avoiding that hand before hugging Epic again.  "You are soooo
 cute!"

<Rusty>:
 Rusty walks past the two and kneels down 
next to Mika and Epic. "I 
couldn't find any rope.... we'll have to rip some fabric lengthwise and 
make her a splint."

<Noir_>: Noir seems to be making a point 
of now ignoring Mika and
 Epic. 
Or, she's just to busy eyeing Cyrus
 impatiantly. She crosses her arms, hissing lowly, "Just get it over 
with"

<Mika>:
 "Uhm, okay."  She looks
 at Rusty before 
dragging the fabric out once more. "Like... A splint... for what?"

<Cyrus>: Cyrus blinks for a moment and then says, "Howb do you 
disinfect a broked node?"

<Rusty>: Rusty points at the
 rather large gash in Patria's shoulder. "This woman is not going to be 
using that arm for a bit. The least we can do is make sure she doesn't 
hurt it more while unconscious."

<Noir_>: Noir's patiance seems a lot 
shorter then usual- even for her. It the whole, being around people 
thing that has her on edge. Crossly, she grabs the bottle Cyrus is holding. "Close your 
ey-Oh, nevermind." With a swift, sudden movement, Noir splashes some of 
the alcohol onto his face with the care only a mother give deliver. A 
terrible, child abusing mother.

<Rusty>: Rusty can only 
stare in horror (and surprise) as the rubbing alcohol splashes all over 
the old man's face.

<Epic>: Epic
 jumped at the brash action, hitting a roof of Mika in the process. It's like breasts 
existed to purposefully hinder people whenever they could or something. 
She got up more carefully this time but as quickly as she could, to 
bring some of the fabric lying around to Cyrus' face and soak up some of the alcohol. Later, 
she would tell the white-haired girl 

<Epic>: that she is a very, very big poo poo head.

<Epic>: Maybe even a pee pee face.

<Epic>: ((GOODNIGHT GUYS

<Cyrus>: "Wha? Fffffff!" Cyrus choaked and flailed a 
bit as alcohol was splashed in his face. Some of it went in his mouth, 
which sent him sputtering and coughing. His stomach lurched at the taste
 and he began to gag...
