The Second Storm [4th Wall 2-Video/Action for Goldenrod]

[soggypastry]

Get off!

Muuuuukkk!

[Yep, that's Lightning. The video has come on in time to see her struggling with something, and when then angle changes as her gear hits the ground, it shows that she's got one of these clinging to her, covering her entire left side and making it rather hard to move. It seems harmless enough, but it's not letting go and

[Oh, dear. It seems one of the Cosmos Warriors need her help. So, without a second thought, Aerith will pop out while holding onto her staff.]

Again? [Really? What is with these pokemon?] ...these creatures are really odd, aren't they?

[She points her staff at the...thing, but realizes she can't use her Seal Evil while it's hanging onto Lightning like that.]

This...is going to be tough...

[Her Espeon will be watching the whole thing behind Aerith.]

[Action]

[soggypastry]

That's one way of putting it. [Still attempting to pull free, buuttt...nope. No dice. Muk is holding onto her for all it's worth and getting it to let go...may be harder than beating Chaos.

Especially since Fang is just heading over to examine the Espeon now, snickering a bit. Hello there, Psychic kitty.]

[Action] /let's pretend that's her angry face. fff

[30secondassist]

Does this creature have a weakness?

[This really is tough. Sigh. She was starting to feel like such a weak assist. Aerith will be walking up to the Muk and start hitting him with her staff.]

Hey, you! Let her go! Don't you know it's rude to invade a lady's personal space?

[The Espeon will look up at the ghost pokemon wondering why it was snickering. She'll try to get closer to the Haunter and give it a sniff. Someone should tell her that she's a kitty, not a dog.]

[Action]

[soggypastry]

Nothing that seems to make a difference.

[Careful, Aerith. The thing is really just a big pile of sludge and it might absorb your staff if you're not careful! Because it certainly doesn't seem to care that it's getting whacked. And nope, no tugging free for Light.

Fang, on the other hand, is still snickering but letting the Espeon sniff her before she sticks her tongue out, licking the curious creature in some kind of greeting.]

[aeonisms]

[That Muk better be hidin' their kids. And hidin' their wives.

Cause Shiva's coming in to freeze its butt of off Lightning.]

Light!

Action;

[soggypastry]

[Muk has no wives and no kids! It just has a Lightning that it is not letting go of, no matter how cold it gets!]

Yuna? When did you--[Not the time, Lightning, sooooo not the time!

Action;

[aeonisms]

[ASDFGHKL; Poor Light ;;]

Now's not the time!

[And Yuna's little Eevee isn't much help at the moment, so it's time to try Valefor with a Sonic Wing. With any luck, it might just lift the Muk up enough for her to get out.]

Action;

[soggypastry]

[It's not toxic or burning her with acid, at least! It's just clingy---asl;dhsljadhljasd WIIINNDDD.

That Sonic Wing does indeed work enough for Lightning to pull herself free, rolling away from the Muk as it attempts to get to her again, before it gets the point of her glare and just pouts, staying put as she dusts herself off.]

Thanks.

[Vaan is a helpful as a Magikarp. He's just. Going to watch, chuckling.]

Hey, Lightning, I think it likes you too much.

[action]

[soggypastry]

[Vaan, there is now a Haunter in your face, snickering while you chuckle. She beats up Magikarps sometimes, you know.

Lightning, on the other hand, is just going to glare a bit.]

Don't make me send it after you. [Not that she...actually could.]

[action]

[buildmomentum]

[And he's jumping back at that. he likes his personal space, plz.]

Okay, okay, I'm helping!

[His nose wrinkles as he inspects what to do, trying to figure out how to pry it off Lightning. His Oddish follows quietly behind him.]

... did you find this in a sewer or something?

[It reminds him of horrible memories of Othros; smelly AND purple.]

[action]

[soggypastry]

[Shame. Fang has no personal boundaries, so she'll just be sticking close to Vaan's head and snickering more at the look on his face. The Muk, on the other hand, calls out a greeting. It's stuck fast to Lightning's side, and doesn't seem like it'll let go anytime soon.]

Woke up and it was on top of me. Couldn't get away in time.

[Tugging again...yep, still no dice. It's got one firm grip.]

[froforahome]

[Sorry Lightning, but there's now a chicobo on your head.]

[soggypastry]

[Tugging at the Muk, tugging at the Muk---Chicobo? Sorry, she's just a little surprised to...feel you now.]

When did you get here?

[froforahome]

[Flying off of her head so he can give her a questioning look. He has no idea either.]

[soggypastry]

[Doesn't really matter, does it? She's just offering her free hand for him to land on in case he wants a rest, because she can't offer both hands. Not with the Muk still clinging no matter how hard she tugs. Stubborn thing---]

[alionsomeday]

[ He hangs back, a bit hesitant and tackling a monster that size, but eventually gathers his courage. ]

Hey! Get off of her!

[ And comes swinging at it. With a book. It's super effective! Not. ]

[soggypastry]

[It's not even enough for the Muk to do more than call out a greeting as the boy attacks with the book. He'll probably want to be careful, though: the Muk will just...absorb the book if it gets stuck in him, which it is most likely going to do.]

[alionsomeday]

[ He's bashing and bashing and--

--oh crap, there goes his book. Fdsfhjksdlfhj. ]

Give it back!

[ Pulling as hard as he can! Don't take his book, Muk. ;; ]

[soggypastry]

[The book comes out a lot easier than Lightning will, and the kid might just fall back onto his rear if he was still pulling ridiculously hard. Goodness knows Lightning will if she keeps tugging the way she is.]
