itp: LOUD THINGS

[archaelologist]

[There have been a couple of holidays recently so have some VERY LOUD AND INAPPROPRIATE FIREWORKS.

Not running this, mingle at will.]

Oh shi-

*....well, a vampire had been out and about when that really bright firework just went off.

now, there's a bunch of dust on the ground, with a dustpan, brush, small vial of blood and note reading "Help, I have crumbled and I can't get up. Please sweep me into a heap and crush vial on the dust. I am a Black Ribboner and will not harm you." dropped nearby*

[crisscrossing]

HOLY shit.

[bad_addict]

*is a pile of dust*

[reads the note twice before something clicks, then does as it says]

Ffff, please work.

*AND LO AND BEHOLD, FROM THE GROUND RISETH A VAMPIRE who gives his shoulders a roll and his neck a very loud crack*

I hate this holiday.

[crisscrossing]

Christ. Maybe we should get you inside?

[bad_addict]

*swings around to find the source of the voice*

Right. Right! Inside. Inside would be good, I think I'll be heading there now.

*scoops up the dustpan, brush and note, jams them into his pocket and strides off for the nearest building*

*relaxes once he gets inside, looking his more usual obnoxiously cool self

Thanks for the clean-up job.

[crisscrossing]

Are you sure you're okay? That was pretty extreme.

[bad_addict]

*waves a hand dismissively*

Hardly. Granted, it's a touch more than a stubbed toe, but it's nothing to write home about.

[crisscrossing]

Doooes that happen often? ... Uh, the dust thing, not the stubbed toe.

[bad_addict]

Well, I avoid county fairs and iconography conventions, so it's hardly every day.

[crisscrossing]

Good! Okay. Just checking.

[bad_addict]

What do vampires do where you're from?

[crisscrossing]

Not... that.
