first hit;; destruction of public property in action

[moezuo]

[ forwarded dated to this afternoon!

ladies and gentleman, it's new feather season. a time of great confusion, anguish, trouble and heartache. the flood of new arrivals is pretty standard now, almost expected, and they could show up anywhere.

literally anywhere.

so maybe it's no surprise that one has landed in the fountain. maybe it's no big

[I. He. What. WHAT.

There is a tiny boy just staring, apparently so amazed that it hasn't registered in his brain to start running.]

[moezuo]

[ this doesn't make any sense. what the- where is he? and... hey, those gunshot wounds are gone.

what the hell. ]

[boxedoff]

...U-urm...

[moezuo]

[ A SHARP LOOK. ]

[markofthebrave]

[Dude. She likes that fountain.] Hey!

[And Katara holds up a hand, stopping the water from spewing all over the place] Put that down! Are you all right?

[Geeze, Malnosso. That fountain is so not deep enough for him to have taken a splash like that well.]

[moezuo]

[ oddly enough, there's not a scratch on him. well. his back is an angry red from the impact, but it's not nearly as bad as it should be. what he expects is...

no. there's nothing he expects here. no tall buildings, no people - well, there are some, the crowd goes mostly unnoticed, - and no... clothes. that's bothering him. where is the suit kasuka gave him? it may have been bloodstained now, but it was still important.

wait. someone was addressing him? shizuo stops and - stares, for a moment. the water wasn't... well. that was... he doesn't make a move to drop the chunk of fountain just yet. ] ... Fine. I'm fine.

[markofthebrave]

[Well... he looks okay. Which was good, because she really wasn't in the mood to mend up broken bones on jumpy New Feathers today. She doesn't let up on her hold on the water, though she does give him a small smile.]

Good. So why don't you put the fountain down and step out, and I'll dry you off. You must have just got here, right?

[moezuo]

[ BANG. CRASH. BOOM. that's going to leave a crack in the pavement where he throws it.

hello scared citizens. he's paying you no mind. :| how are you doing that strange girl.

... he's not sure he wants to li- WHAT ARE THESE FEATHERS?!

reaches back. ]

[moezuo]

[ that outfit sure does look a lot lik- wait -- that was celty, wasn't it? she was here too? ]

Oi.

[moezuo]

[ oh. it is.

CRASH. CRUNCH. BOOM. the rock hits the ground. shizuo rolls his shoulders, trying to get rid of that stiffness... ow. wait. ow? what. LOOKING BACK- why are there feathers on his back? ]

[Well, there goes the library book he'd wanted to read.

Leo looks down at the soaked book in his hand (his clothes, too, are soaked, but he doesn't care much about that) and to the man holding the fountain spout. Well, half of it.]

Are you going to put that down?

[action]

[moezuo]

[ can you dodge, man?

i hope so.

because that brick is being whipped at you. ]

[action]

[ishisfriend]

--!!

[Holy shit what.

No epic dodging skills here, man- it's pure luck that he manages to at least duck fast enough but he feels the whoosh as the brick flies on top of his head.]

[action]

[moezuo]

[ oh the fountain, we hardly knew ye. shizuo jumps down and off of it, clenching his shaking fists at his sides. ]

[personafalsify]

[ What about black bug-like creatures? Because Rep is skittering closer, trying to figure out just what you did to that fountain.

No seriously, how did you break it that badly. ]

[moezuo]

[ with sheer ANGER and manliness and -

what the hell are you. under normal circumstances, there would be some smashing going on here - but shizuo isn't processing any of this fast enough to get angry. ]

[personafalsify]

[ A Heartless, thank you very much. And that is some impressive anger, because that fountain is pretty totaled. The second question is why are you now flooding the town square with it.

Walking through squishy mud is much more annoying when you can't wear any shoes, after all 8| ]
