Meep Manhunt!
Who: Anyone who expressed interest in going after Meep and received a letter from Scurvey Dog.
Where: Anygrav Moon
When: August 9th-22nd
What: The mission begins! Dog asked for help rescuing Meep and it's you lot who've responded. Try to bring him back in one piece, eh?
Warnings: Possible violence...?
Style: Any!
Status: Closed to those involved!
The island is covered by a familiar mist that rolls across the ground. Fortunately for you, it's not going to bring nightmares to life this time, but it definitely lends to the general feeling of unease that fills the place. That isn't helped by the fact that though the population here was never very large, it certainly must be even smaller now.
It's the dead, lifeless husks along the beach that make that much obvious.
There's no sign of battle, and all the bodies appear unmarked. It's as though they suddenly dropped right where they were standing, as if something completely and abruptly drained them of energy.
Watch your step as you make your way inland. Wouldn't it be a shame if the same thing happened to you?
no subject
He continues to lash the bugs back with his watery whip, watching their flank as he follows Lorelai to where Zoro is.]
no subject
WHO THE HELL ARE YOU CALLING A SHITTY BABY, YOU ASSHOLE?!
[...Lorelai's response, not so much.
Guh.
He's not a jackass. ;_; Arrows right through his heart, man.
And you want him to come down and get bug guts all over his shoes?
And risk having a goddamn spider crawl up his pants leg??But no...of course he has to go down. Like hell he can just leave them all down there, what kind of shithead would that make him?? A LADY HAS REQUESTED HIS HELP, obviously he's gonna rush to her side.
Any second now.
...
Yep.
A shudder runs through his entire body, head to toe, before he manfully rolls his shoulders back and takes a deep breath.
Then fire suddenly licks up the side of his leg as he goes into a free fall.]
Alright, heads up, I'm dropping in! I'm coming to crush the goddamn fucking bugs for you, Lorelai-chwaaan~!!
[Which he will do by crunching right on top of several of them, sweeping that flaming leg out and around to fling more of them away, and then finally -- well, he just goes on a mad, sporadic, somewhat flaily stomping spree.
...So badass.]
AHHHHHH DIE DIE DIE!
no subject
Wow.
Zoro straightens up and drops his hand away, deciding to just let all of this happen around him. He's good. As long as nothing else lands on the back of his neck. He may not have Sanji's phobia, but he does consider bugs to be gross little fuckers and wants no part of them.
So he leaves Sanji to his spree and cants his head toward Lorelai and Lyrik]
Good job, guys.
no subject
Shit. 5 arrows down.
[finally meeting up with Zoro in the where he is in the chamber she looks up at her whip dangling, still wrapped around the outcropping she swung them down from and lets out a frustrated sigh]
Shit.
no subject
[Lyrik watches as the man goes on a killing spree. He trails after Lorelai, snapping his watery whip at a few daring spiders. Once they reach Zoro, the kid offers a faint smile and a nod.]
Oh...
no subject
Though he does make the mistake of glancing down at his shoes once, which results in a grimace and him hurriedly scraping his foot against the ground to clean some spider legs off of it. Ugh.
He slows to a stop as he reaches the others, glancing upward toward where they'd originally been walking.]
Guess we gotta get back up.
[NO SWEAT.
...No, but really.]
no subject
Is that the only way out? Damn. How're we gonna find that guy if we get lost?
[IRONY]
no subject
One of you assholes want to get my whip down for me? I'd rather not leave it behind if I need it again.
no subject
Maybe we can mark our way as we go, so we can retrace back to here and try another way if the one we do pick doesn't work out.
[He looks to the others, and then where Lorelai's whip is, fingering his chin.]
If they can't get it, maybe I can try to knock it loose with water.
no subject
I got it.
[Kicks off the ground and hops his way back up to that outcropping so he can untangle Lorelai's whip. Once done, he sends a look back toward the path they came from before he drops down to the ground below again.]
Here, Lorelai-chan. Look, are we sure we don't wanna head back out and just take another shitty path? This one started off poorly, it can only get more fucked up from here.
[But mostly those tunnels in front of them are dark and he's absolutely sure they've got more spiders crawling around in them. That hallway that smelled like old cheese is looking pretty good now, right??
He holds an arm out toward Lorelai and drops a hand heavily on Zoro's shoulder as he looks between the three of them and then speaks in a deep, overly serious tone.]
Don't worry. I can carry you guys.
no subject
[he steps back, his boot heel crunching on something crawly. Mm, centipedes. Gross.]
Suck it up, cook, none of us are gonna enjoy this.
[but the hand on his shoulder is enough to keep him from just starting off through one of the doors - and you should all know not to follow him if he does.]
no subject
Slow down you idiot. We need to make sure we go the right way. Otherwise we'll end up in another fucking room like this.
[Places like this, there is no telling what could have happened behind them after that collapse, one trap sets off another and another. For all she knows there is only one right hall.
She yanks him around to look him right in the eye.]
From now on in this place you listen to me. You may fight better than I do but this kind of place is where I live.
[Lorelai has no chill...
She nocks an arrow into her bow and shoots it at the floor a bit down the hallway he was moving towards, causing jets of fire to explode out from the walls]
Idiot.
no subject
[Oh good, Lorelai's taking care of Zoro.]
Miss Lorelai is right! We need to be more careful about which way we go! This place is old on top of trapped, so there's no telling what we might trig- gah!
[He blinks and stares at the fire that bursts within the hallway.]
Wow! Good thinking, Miss Lorelai! Zoro could have been roasted alive!
no subject
Sure, good, let's stay down here...
[Grumble mutter.
But then he turns a a brighter look on Lorelai.]
Your lead, then!
no subject
Fine, you do that.
[though he cocks a look at Sanji] You're really gonna let her go first, Mr. Prince?
no subject
Lorelai-chan is the shitty temple master...
[Still, though, he does sweep into a bow in front of her, arm held across his stomach.]
But if she'd like me to be her human shield, I'm more than willing~!! Whatever makes it easier for you to work, Lorelai-chwaaan!
[Better, marmimo? 8|
...It strikes him as a little odd that he had to be provoked into that, but. Hmm.]
no subject
Hmmph. Lyrik, can you send a flood of water down the other halls and tell me if it hits anything that might be a trigger plate or deep cracks in the ground?
no subject
[He opens the several canteens he carries, upending one after the other as he carefully gathers the water into a floating ball before it can splatter on the ground. It's hardly flood-worthy, but he closes his eyes, letting the watery orb split between the halls, sliding fluidly along the ground.]
....there's...a couple of places cut into the ground in some areas down that way...
I'm not getting anything from the other tunnel, but I'm not really sure either.
no subject
We could probably handle some shitty chopped up floor, but the other tunnel sounds safer. Safe might be misleading, though.
[Glances at Lorelai.]
What do you think?
no subject
[She gives Lyrik a big smile and annoyingly ruffles his hair]
We take the hall that's free. Shitty chopped up floor usually means pitfalls or spikes which usually mean death. I like you idiots. I'd prefer to not have to tell the others that you got your dumb asses killed.
[She immediately slings her bow back on her shoulder before unsnapping the snaps holding the scythe to her back and swings it in front of her before starting her way down the hall.]
no subject
no subject
[it's not a denial or an opinion, to him, it's a state of fact. At the very least, he and Sanji aren't going to die from some fire or spikes, not after what they've been through.
He claps a hand to Lyrik's shoulder to thank him for the good work and moves past, vaguely in the direction of the indicated tunnel. There's still enough distance to the door that he could swerve and miss it, yet.]
You sure you wanna go first, Lorelai?
[he needled Sanji for fun, but all things considered he'll still go first - or shove the cook down the tunnel - if she wants them to.]
Feel free to god mod her a little bit if you gotta the next couple days while I'm at work.
[She's frustrated with this. I mean sure she died horrible in front of them, but that was zombies on a boat, this was an old ruin, her home away from home.
She walks right past him and starts moving down the hall.]
no subject
All the same, I'd rather you didn't die...or anyone else for that matter.
[He remembers all too well when they'd lost Lorelai, and even if she's there with them, it hurts all the same. He hadn't been able to do anything about it. Would he be able to help any of them now if something like that came up again?]
no subject
[Seriously, fuck pitfalls, Sanji could just jump 'em. BUT he'll follow Lorelai's lead, of course. She's so sexy when she takes charge like this~~!!!
He falls in line with the rest of them, hands tucked into his pockets and ready to kick anything in the face -- especially any spiders -- that comes at him.]
