[Open Commentlog] Finally out and about!

[Well damn, it seems Malkus is completely out of the food he stored in his bag. Though it wasn't much (few apples, onion, a carrot...) it was just enough to keep him going...Well, until now at least. He's pretty hungry, starving even!

There's food somewhere on this ship, he knows that much. But it's impossible to tell where anything is if he's ( Read more... )

[Vash is in the process of exiting the area, the front of his duster covered in powdered sugar. There's another donut hanging out of his mouth, and his hands are in his pockets.

He's doing his best to find a sense of normalcy around here, and, unfortunately, the sight he walks in on... sort of ruins that.]

... Um. You need a plate or somethin'...?

[Mals entire body freezes up, quickly turning his head to give you a vacant bird-faced stare]

Wh-...What? ...O-Oh...Erm...

[He doesn't seem to move, still staring right at you.

...

Well the man hasn't stabbed at Malkus...yet...or made any death threats...yet...So perhaps he doesn't need to make a run for it...yet...]

I don't really...

[He glanced down at his bag, already half full of a messy mixture of various foods and sauces. To some it might be a bit unappealing but to him it's a glorious gift from god]

...A plate...Well, I suppose...

[He reaches over for a plate...Piles up a bit of food onto it...and dumps it into his bag]

...

[He looks back up at the man, noticing the powdered sugar and the pastry in his mouth...He's not really sure what to say.]

[Vash just... stares. First off, this guy looks weird. But, apparently, there were giant robot monster things on the boat, and after everything he'd seen in Carnival... Well. The guy seems very confused, not threatening.

He tries a smile.]

N-No. You don't... do that.

[A laugh.]

You act like you never saw a plate before, there, friend! You don't have to dump it in there.

[He relaxes a bit, hearing the laugh. The pace at which he's cramming food into the bag slows down, before he stops completely, standing up straight]

H-Heh, well. It's not that I don't know how to use such a complicated tool, I'm simply trying to snatch as much as I can get before something comes and sees me as part of this little feast here.

[He picks up his bag by the handle, shuffling over to the dessert section. He turns his head towards the man when he hears the word "friend". Well that's good! He's making friends on this ship!]

...Erm...My name is Malkus, kind sir. [He nods. Now's a better time than any for an introduction, he supposes]

[He can't help but slip a slice of fruit under his mask, grabbing and tossing a piece or two of cake, a few donuts, and a cookie...or six...into his bag...]

[Watching with a cross between mild bewilderment and slight entertainment from behind a table nearby. He's using the tablecloth to keep himself hidden, but he's peering out pretty noticeably anyway.

He KNOWS you from somewhere, Mister Bird Man.]

[Malkus was busy, hunched over, mumbling to himself, observing, poking at, and picking apart different foods.]

This all looks so good, I can't decide wha-

[His head pops up, seeing a tablecloth shift and move in the corner of his eye]

...

[He's dead silent, quickly turning his head to the table. His whole body tensing up again.]

...

[Oh god, oh god, what could be under that table?! The angle he's standing prevents him from getting a clear view of the little one. For all he knows it could be a rabid animal, wanting to gnaw at his legs...His precious gnaw-able legs...]

...Hello? ...

[He refuses to move any closer to the table, tossing a bread roll in its direction instead. Getting ready to flee at any moment, his hand clenched tightly around the handle of his bag]

[Oh dear. He's been spotted! Hearing the small thump of something hitting the floor nearby, he finally peers out fully to see what it is. A... bread roll? He stares at it with much confusion for a moment, before realizing that somebody had to throw it, and the only person nearby that could do that would be--

...Oh.

He peers upwards eyes finding Mister Bird Man again and stopping. Uh... Link didn't stare him, did he? He would feel bad. He raises one little hand to wave it slowly, but just in case, he doesn't completely emerge from his hideout.]

[More silence, staring at the little hand.]

...

[...He squints...Yes...Yes that's a little hand waving at him from under the table, alright]

...

[He blinks, tilting his head...A little hand is usually connected to a little body...At least....They're usually attached to little bodies...]

U-...Uh....

[After thinking for a moment, Malkus decides to slowly raise his hand aswell, waving back slightly. Going back to complete silence.]

...

[Oh dear, what if it's a child? Who would leave a small child left to scamper about a ship?! ...It could be a little monster...Monsters could come in all shapes and sizes...right? Still all just as deadly...Malkus decides to keep his guard up.]

[Alice is, of course, out and about - she's not nearly as paranoid or overly concerned as her masked friend seems to be. She does, however, take the proper precaution at times, there's ben talk here and there of an uprising or some such discussion, so Alice is currently dressed in her armor as she wanders, and eventually she comes across her new friend dressed in said apparel.

She watches him in mild confusion for a moment, before resting her hands on her hips and calling out to him.]

Good heavens Malkus, what on earth are you doing?

[Startled, he jumps and bangs his elbow against a table, letting out a small yelp as he turns to look at Alice, the bottom half of his mask stained with smudges of chocolate]

...N-Nothing...Just collecting emergency rations...You know...Incase of emergency...Like...Sudden hunger...

[He smiles, behind his mask, happy to see a familiar face here. Though noticing the armor rather quickly.]

...And yourself? You're not planning to get into a fight or anything, are you!

Oh, are you quite alright? [She reaches to steady him, brow creasing further.] You're terribly jumpy.

Would you like some help?

[Alice realizes she looks quite strange, and glances down at herself once before looking back up and quirking a smile.]

Well, I did hear a good friend of mine attempting to 'rally' people, as it were, though the why's and how's of it are still unknown, I thought perhaps it would be best to don what I arrived in. I did my best to clean off the Jabberwocky blood but I don't believe I've gotten it all. IT seems to stain something dreadful, even on armor.

No no, I'm fine. You just surprised me a bit! [He rubs his elbow, laughing.]

I'm quite alright, really. Thank you though! A rally? Something I ought to be aware of? And...E-erm...Yes I do think blood...even monster blood would be hard to scrub out.

[He set down his bag, remembering he had little Links room number scribbled down on a piece of paper in his jacket pocket.]

I'm going to safely assume you have a room on this ship aswell. I suppose it'd be good to know where it is if I were ever walking about and needed something!

[He offers her a piece of cake he was planning on stuffing into his bag]
