PIRATES vs. NAVY BATTLE LOG



December 9th finds some new arrivals to this world, the same curious phenomenon that's been occurring for the past few months.

This time, however, the Navy is prepared -- or so they think.

They've got troops stationed around the island, and ships on the water to stop any arrogant, foolhardy pirates and would-be sailors from trying to make port.

So hit them with all you've got, but they're not going down easily...

Never heard of it.

[Which only gives him minimal concern for now. Random teleportation to new locations wasn't unheard of, and there were plenty of regions back home he hadn't visited yet]

So we're headin' this way? I hope you're takin' us somewhere useful.

[That question is the more pressing matter, and he pats Explotaro's shoulders gently to steer him down the alley]

[Good, because if he started screaming and kicking about not being where he was before, Ragna would punch him.

Once the creature stops in the alley, the man jumps off, feeling much better now that he can feel steady ground under his feet. Still, he shoots Gold an angry glare.]


Look, brat, we're knee-deep in this shit because you keep acting some goddamn show-off. If you wanna get to safety in one piece, we're doing this my way now.

[Without further ado, he turns away from him and reaches out with his right arm, chanting some barely audible words with his eyes closed. The moment he's done, a circle of bright, silverish blue light with symbols Gold's probably never seen before appears in front of him.]

What are you waiting for? Hop through. And your pet too, if you wanna drag it along.

Hey! I ain't tryin' to show off, I'm tryin' to escape. Sheesh, what side of the bed did you wake up on?

[This guy sure was cranky]

What's with the fancy light show? Where d'you wanna take us?

[So far, his day has consisted of being attacked by soldiers for no apparent reason, having a wall blown up straight into his face, and a crazy ride on some strange animal that he didn't even ask for.

So yes, he reserves the right to be cranky.

Ragna rolls his eyes impatiently, his pride being the only thing stopping him from stomping his foot like a little kid.]


Were you even listening? Safety.

[Well. He hopes that's what it is. He vaguely recalls Brig being run by some chick who's buddies with the weather mutt, and she seemed... "trustworthy" isn't the word he'd use, not ever, but he supposes she wouldn't wish them death. Which is an improvement over the guys chasing them already.]

... I think.

"I think" isn't very comfortin', Grouchy.

[But he could hear more yells in the distance, and he didn't want to get caught unaware by another band of soldiers]

I'm blamin' you if this backfires! C'mon, Explotaro, let's go.

[And with that, through the circle the duo goes]
rebellions: surely no one will notice that huge piece of metal on my back haha nope (STEALTH MODE)

[personal profile] rebellions 2013-12-15 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[Surprisingly enough, Gold and Explotaro won't feel anything remotely special once they step through the circle, and will find themselves standing in the exactly same place when they leave it. So whatever the purpose of that thing is, it isn't transportation for sure.

Ragna follows the kid, unfazed by the apparent lack of effect, as if that was exactly what he was expecting to happen. Once he's through, the circle disappears into thin air, and the man walks farther into the alley, not bothering to look behind him.]


Follow me.
thatsmycue: (say what)

[personal profile] thatsmycue 2013-12-19 11:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[. . . well that wasn't what he expected at all]

What'd you do?

[The trainer asks as he falls into step behind Ragna, Explotaro lumbering tall behind him]

Concealment ars.

[He says that like it's the most obvious thing on the planet. Though considering the kid apparently comes from some weirdo world where they have grinning sunflowers and think that's okay, Ragna decides to be kind enough to elaborate.]

They won't notice us unless we literally walk straight into them.

["We". The word sounds kind of strange to him, especially when it's coming from his own mouth. He's not really used to this cooperation bullshit, but hell, no time to mull it over right now.

The man stops for a moment, glaring at Gold over his shoulder.]


... Doesn't mean you should try.

[Given what he's seen of the brat so far, he wouldn't put it past him.]
thatsmycue: (why though)

[personal profile] thatsmycue 2013-12-21 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Ars? Sounds like a polite way of sayin' ass to me.

[well it was true]
rebellions: I DARE YOU (say it to my face)

[personal profile] rebellions 2013-12-21 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[Fair enough, but would Ragna really bother being polite...]

Ars magus.

[He stresses every syllable, clearly annoyed with Gold's ignorance of such basic matters. Never mind he probably has no way of knowing about those things.]

Now get your ass in the gear or I'm gonna kick it, got it?
thatsmycue: (pic#7138179)

[personal profile] thatsmycue 2013-12-23 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah right! Just try and kick it, see how well that works for you.

[Yes Gold because talking back to the angry guy with magic is a good idea]
rebellions: and i don't mind getting the answers by force (i've got questions for you)

[personal profile] rebellions 2013-12-23 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[Ars magus aside, what makes that a really bad idea is Ragna's extremely short fuse.

Which he proves right now by drawing the giant slab of metal he calls a sword from his back and turning around swiftly, pointing at Gold with the blade.]


Look, brat. I'm helping you out since I'm feeling generous today, but if you don't shut your piehole and act like a good boy, I might as well skewer you here and now and be fucking done with it. Is that clear?
thatsmycue: (like seriously where am I even going)

[personal profile] thatsmycue 2013-12-23 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[Ragna drawing his sword was an unexpected development, but Gold is quick on his feet-- he reaches behind him and yanks something out of his back, using it to block the blade and push the tip of it out of his face and towards his shoulder instead. Next to him, Explotaro's hackles raise, smoke and sparks dancing on his back (though he doesn't activate his flames entirely just yet)]

[. . . the object Gold's using to deflect the sword is a pool cue. don't. don't ask]


Look, pal, whether you like it or not, we're in this together. At least for now. I don't wanna get caught, and you don't wanna get caught, and fightin' seems pretty counter to that goal. Let's just get goin', okay?
rebellions: (much expression)

[personal profile] rebellions 2013-12-24 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
[To be fair, that was unexpected, but hey. He knows a girl who fights by throwing motherfucking frogs at people. There's little that can still surprise him in that category.

Ragna remains silent for a moment, still glaring down at Gold but not moving an inch. The whole "we're in this together" bullshit is annoying as fuck, not to mention completely false-- if he wanted, he could ditch the kid at this very moment and not lose any sleep over it. What's to stop him from doing just that?

... the fact he's too goddamn soft, that's what.

The man pulls his sword back with an angry huff.]


... Keep moving or I'm leaving you behind.

[And just like that, he continues walking like nothing happened.]
