VERTILINE [ 2 ]

Jan 22, 2011 17:21

[The comm clicks on to broadcast the voice of a very distressed Lily. Well, "distressed" is an understatement. She sounds absolutely frantic.]

CAN MICE CLIMB TREES?

[See, it's relevant because she's high up in a tree somewhere, hiding from the mayhem. You may be thinking, but Lily is a battle loli! Surely she could fight the infestation! One ( Read more... )

!event, trees!, what the fuck is this shit, how does i normal?

[Yuna is already out of her pod and heading over to go to the healers' hall for some bandages. The mice are everywhere, but thankfully they can't seem to bite through the material her boots are made of. Thank goodness they aren't as fragile as the rest of her clothing.]

I will be there as quickly as I can. [A beat.] What's your name?

I am Yuna. If I can't find you, then I can call your name and you can call back. That may make it easier for me to find where you are.

Threadjack! bellator_lucis January 22 2011, 23:26:34 UTC

Yuna.It would be best if we worked together to find Lily. Where are you?

[He's gone to get an extra torch.]

lilyground January 23 2011, 01:42:50 UTC

Wait, you're both coming to get me? Shouldn't you be... helping with the mice? And rabbits? Or something? It's not really a big deal!

summonupastorm January 23 2011, 01:51:31 UTC

Making sure you're safe is important, too.

[And to the Warrior.]

I am making my way over to the healers' hall. If she is injured and refuses to come down, then it will be better if we bring bandages. That way, her wounds can be taken care of sooner rather than later.

bellator_lucis January 23 2011, 02:20:06 UTC

We are not the only ones repelling this invasion. Yuna is right - making sure that you are safe is important.

[You can't see it, but he's nodding.]

That is wise. I have extra torches. Shall I meet you by the temple entrance?

lilyground January 23 2011, 02:29:42 UTC

But there's other people to save! On the ground!

[Ugh. Adults don't know anything.]

I'll be fine! Normal people won't be!

summonupastorm January 23 2011, 02:37:20 UTC

As much as you may want to stay in that tree, you can't stay in there forever. It's better if you have other people around to help you.

[Yuna's not an adult, just a ridiculously serious teenager. And she's already decided to help Lily, so good luck with getting her to back off.]

Yes, that will be fine. I'll meet you there shortly.

bellator_lucis January 23 2011, 02:42:34 UTC

In any case, defense against these creatures is not difficult. They are afraid of fire. That is why I am bringing you a torch.

[No, the Warrior sees nothing wrong with giving fire to a fourteen-year-old, why do you ask?]

I will see you shortly.

[He's waiting by the entrance with a torch in his left hand and a drawn sword in the other. He heard about the rabbits.]

lilyground January 23 2011, 02:55:39 UTC

[GAH.]

Just - fine. But you can't stay with me long, because there's other people in danger. Okay?

summonupastorm January 23 2011, 03:05:05 UTC

We will be with you soon enough. [And Yuna is going to make sure Lily is safe and sound before going to take care of anyone else.

It isn't much longer before Yuna sees the Warrior by the entrance.]

We should hurry. [Especially since they still don't know exactly where Lily is.]

bellator_lucis January 23 2011, 03:31:25 UTC

[He nods. He's stuck his comm in his belt, but he's leaving it recording, so that Lily can hear them. He figures it might be reassuring.]

She said that she ran past the pods. That gives us a direction to begin looking.

[Oh, hold on.]

Lily, if you see us coming, will you let us know? You may be able to see more than we can.

lilyground January 23 2011, 03:40:39 UTC

Sure, okay...

[It takes a moment, but...]

Um. Can you bring me a weapon with the torch? A knife or gun or... anything.

summonupastorm January 23 2011, 03:58:47 UTC

[Yuna takes little time to head to the healers' hall and quickly comes back with bandages and anything else they might need. Better to be safe than sorry, after all.

She nods at the Warrior.]

We must move quickly. [The faster they get Lily to safety, the better.]

bellator_lucis January 23 2011, 04:05:10 UTC

[The Warrior is balancing his understanding of Lily's need for a weapon with the fact that she really needs to get down from there. While he was waiting for Yuna he checked over the other responses and he saw what Eliot said about mice being able to climb trees.]

Lily, once we get you down, I will take you to the armory and you may choose your own weapon.

[He turns to Yuna.]

Let's go.

[He's going to circle the temple and head off into the jungle beyond the pods.]

lilyground January 23 2011, 04:13:14 UTC

Okay. Cool. Good.

[Suddenly, Lily doesn't want to stay in the tree anymore. Whether she has her... "abilities" or not, the skill remains. With a weapon she can actually help someone. That's what she cares about the most.

Lily has to atone for her dog-related sins somehow, you know.]

summonupastorm January 23 2011, 04:29:47 UTC

[Yuna follows behind the Warrior, making sure to stick close and still very grateful that her boots are so durable.

Still, even as the reach the jungle, Yuna finds herself feeling increasingly concerned. She doesn't know the extent of Lily's injuries, and she isn't sure how the other girl will do if they don't get to her soon.]

Lily, we are in the jungle now. If you can see us, just call out and we'll come get you.
