Bullet 1

[hadalotofsugar]

Well, this is certainly unexpected. I’m enjoying the new digs, because warehouses just don’t cut it anymore, but.

[Meet Hannibal King. His tone is chock full of sarcasm, and despite the fact that he’s extremely unhappy and disturbed, he’s not telling you.]You wouldn’t have happened to have thought to leave me my toys, Mr. Mysterious Kidnappers

You haven't been kidnapped, and your "toys" will be returned to you once we arrive at the Golden Shore. You're aboard the MS Elegante, care of Captain Redd. I'm Renovation Head Meth, so you can direct any questions to me or any other crew member.

[audio]

[hadalotofsugar]

No, of course I haven't been kidnapped. Being moved to a boat overnight is normal. [The guns he could care less about - they weren't on his person, though he did have one nearby when he went to sleep.]

Okay, question one: How'd I get here? Question two: How do I get off, since I don't want to wait to hit the shore.

[audio]

[metharchy]

It is normal, where the Captain is concerned. He brought you aboard. It's impossible for you to leave the ship of your own volition, so it's best to accept that fact now and relax the rest of the trip.

[How Kage didn't get sick of these questions, Meth didn't know. She'd only greeted one other passenger today and already found this process to be annoying.]

[audio]

[hadalotofsugar]

[Oh, that's just great. That's not going to stop King, but its still annoying.]

Won't tell me how I got on it, won't tell me how to get off it. I feel so informed.

Deck 1!

[electroniccrane]

[Kusanagi is standing at the railing, arms braced. The illusory ocean and sky are as featureless as ever.

At the sound of Hannibal's footsteps, she turns her head, enough to catch him in her peripheral vision.]

Deck 1!

[hadalotofsugar]

[King's managed to make it all the way up to Deck 1 without too much trouble. He's walking along carefully, since he's only dressed in the old white tank top and some colorful pajama pants, and is lacking shoes. And he doesn't know what he'll find up here. He's a little shocked - he can't spot any land, and he knows he was pretty far inland when he went to sleep.

When he spots Kusanagi, he pauses, taking in her appearance. No immediate threat perceived, although he knows as well as any that appearances are deceiving.

Might as well make the first question an interesting one.]

I thought there'd be more to do up here then mini golf.

[electroniccrane]

You could jump off the side, but I wouldn't suggest it.

[Her English is slightly Japanese accented.

His voice is familiar, and she turns further to get a better look at the newcomer.]

...Wilson?

[There are a lot of people she'd rather see return than the incompetent mercenary.]

[hadalotofsugar]

Damn, there goes my plan of swimming free. [Lifeboats, maybe, but jumping was never a serious plan.

He blinks, then draws his brows together when she speaks what he assumes is a name.]

No. Hannibal King.

[There's an unspoken 'And you?' implied in there.]

[smellsyourhair]

[Edward is outside because it's nighttime, but even in the night he looks outrageously handsome and attractive. He's sitting on the rails, staring wistfully at the full moon.

Its haunting beauty reminds him of Bella.]

this icon has light to mess with you

[hadalotofsugar]

[Sure, Edward is pretty, but King's ttly not gay, so. Also, some kid just sitting on the rails staring at the moon looks.. pretty unhelpful.

King resolves that he's not going to poke this one, in favor of the pretty lady over there.]

nyoooooooooo ;A;

[smellsyourhair]

[He's not just pretty, he's breathtakingly, achingly gorgeous you sack of shit.]

Are you a newcomer, too?

yaaaaaaaaaaaais

[hadalotofsugar]

[Achingly. Yes, King is achingly holding in his regret at not being able to talk to the hot chick, you cuntmuffin.]

No, I've been here the longest. [Pause.] And that was sarcasm.

on deck 4 or something it doesn't really matter

[lilyground]

[So Lily's practicing her running (Kage would like that. Where's Kage, anyway?), and when she turns a corner, she quite literally barrels into some poor soul. The force should send them both tumbling over and maybe skidding a few feet because she's Lily Motherfucking Worth and she's a BAMF like that.

Hi!]

Owww...

Deck 4 Commentlog

[hadalotofsugar]

[King's just walking on deck four, minding his own confused business, when he hears feet coming down the corridor. He's puzzled, and going to move to the side when something just barrels the fuck into him. And sends him to the ground, hard. Ow.]

- What the fuck? [King looks over at the other occupant of the floor, which is - a little girl?]

what an incredible appropriate icon, tai, thank you

[lilyground]

[Lily rubs her head, then looks up at who she's sprawled beside. Hey, she doesn't recognize you, mister. Lily frowns (the personification if ">:") and picks herself up.]

I'm soooooooo sorry! I was running!

[She offers him a hand, to help him up.]

What's your name?

don't read the keywords :|

[hadalotofsugar]

[King raises his eyebrows at her words - running, well, it makes sense with her apparent age - and ignores the hand, choosing instead to sit up. Maybe he likes the floor okay.]

That's all right, no one's hurt. My name's Hannibal. What's yours?

[Its kind of hard to be sarcastic to kids, okay.]

Deck 5

[fetchthestick]

[There's a border collie trotting towards you. It has puppy proportions, though it's the size of a full-grown dog, and there's something odd about his front legs and paws... a leash trails on the ground next to his collar.

Big brown eyes glance up as he gets close.]

Hi Mister!

Deck 5

[hadalotofsugar]

[Oh look, a dog. An odd looking dog, but a dog all the same - did the dog just talk..... At least it isn't a vampire. King eyes Thom warily.]

...Hey, buddy.

Deck 5

[fetchthestick]

[Thom pauses and looks up... then stands up on his hind legs and bows politely.]

My name's Thom.

[His nose twitches.]

Are you new, Mister?

Deck 5

[hadalotofsugar]

[Holy shit, that dog just stood on its hind legs at bowed. Have King staring at you with a look of shock, before he speaks.]

You - ... [Okay, its just a talking dog, nothing to worry about. You already got smacked around by a tiny girl, King.]

...Nice to meet you, Thom. I'm Hannibal, and yeah, I'm new.
