Fifth Shift > Open Commentlog

[miseducating]

[When Nick woke up, it was slowly. He yawned and stretched. As far as he's concerned, he's always been a panther. So imagine his surprise when he shifted suddenly! It was enough to jar him out of his sleep. Omai. He didn't understand. Nothing made any sense. He looked around and nothing registered in his memory

[Obviously, he's going to meet Rapunzel. Since Mumsy isn't here to keep her shut up in her room, Rapunzel is almost always out and about in the keep, exploring the rooms and painting and singing and reading.

She's met quite a few people here, but she has ye to run into a shirtless man.

She stops right there in the middle of the hall, green eyes huge.]

Ah, I think you might have forgotten your shirt!

[!!!

Nick stops shy of Rapunzel and just sort of stares at her. Is he suppose to know who she is? Because he doesn't.]

[She blinks at him, playing with a piece of her hair.]

Um...

[Why isn't he saying anythiiiiing...]

[miseducating]

[Forgive him. He doesn't exactly remember the languages he speaks right now. For one reason or another, he decides it's a good idea to bite his thumb. It seems to be a habit he didn't know he had.

Um...

After a moment or two, he finally says something. But it is mumbled. In a language Rapunzel probably doesn't understand. He's not entirely sure what he's saying.]

[She was restless - she didn't want to think about what she had done and sitting in her room, by herself, cause just that.

So, out and about she went.

The figure in the hall is familiar, and the closer she gets, the more Anna realizes that she must be dreaming, or has been sent to her own personal version of hell.

How was he alive?

She gasped sharply, muttering an explicative as she pressed herself against the wall, eyes wide and staring.

He...died. He DIED - she knew this, she had KILLED HIM.]

Mon Dieu - Nickolas?!

[Nick jumps! He has no idea why this strange woman is yelling at him. He hasn't done anything wrong. Right? What heck is she saying anyway? He remains frozen in his spot while he stares at Anna. There is no recognition here.]

[tigressina]

...

[How is it possible he doesn't recognize her, either?

Anna's breath is coming in short gasps as she tries to put the pieces together. That he was standing here in front of her after she had killed him herself - her teeth had punctured his neck, she'd tasted his BLOOD -

It was disturbing and Anna feels sick.]

Nickolas - how...how is this possible?

[miseducating]

[He doesn't understand. He's sorry Anna. He shakes his head. Who is Nickolas? WHO ARE YOU? WHO WAS PHONE? What is going on here?]
