4th Flight [Video/Action]

[sojournsparrow]

[The video feed clicks on to reveal a wheel barrow rattling along with mismatched wheels, as Haer'Dalis pushes it. The most notable thing that one can make out about this scene, is that the wheel barrow is full of dead bodies, and Haer'Dalis is dragging a live cougar behind him. This scene might be puzzling to most people, but Haer'Dalis starts

[WHERE DOES HE EVEN START?! The wheelbarrow, the dead bodies, the cougar? Oh the cougar.... Screw it. Joining in the insanity is clearly the only answer.]

Why didn't you list the wheelbarrow in our list of assets in the first place?

[Eh so he butchered the Princess Bride quote, but come on... it was needed.]

[sojournsparrow]

[Haer'Dalis chuckles, recognizing it as a quote from a play he was once part of.]

I had left it on the albino.

[Although in all fairness, it wasn't exactly a good wheel barrow. As he speaks the Cougar tries to maul him again, but he promptly glares at it, readying his fist to punch it, and it reconsiders, plomping down on the ground, meowling pathetically.]

[fierybluebird]

Those albinos are always getting the good wheelbarrows.

Uh... so what's with the giant kitty? [No really. What even.]

[sojournsparrow]

Oh him?

[Haer'Dalis is swinging the cat away from him again, making sure it doesn't pounce on his back while he isn't looking.]

Nasty little bugger tried to pounce me while I was collecting bodies. Since I didn't have any decent bells to get people's attention with... I figured... ehh... why not.

[Audio]

[musicboxsoldier]

...Why are you swinging a cougar around? [So this is the great plan that he talked about... fantastic.]

[Audio]

[sojournsparrow]

I couldn't find a suitable bell. [He says this like a cougar is the obvious replacement for a bell]

[Audio]

[musicboxsoldier]

I doubt that this alternative will help with our current predicament.

[sojournsparrow]

Oh? What makes you say that?

[gochuugoku]

[What on Earth was that noise? China looks out his apartment window, only to find Haer'Dalis along with his wheel barrow and cougar.]

Oi!

[He leans out the window a bit and waves a hand.]

[sojournsparrow]

[Haer'Dalis looks up at the familiar face with a smile, although the cougar, looks a little less pleased, and is trying to run away again, but seems to be stuck running in place, as Haer'Dalis holds onto its tail.]

Ah! Good day to you China! I say, do you have any dead bodies in your apartment you would like me to help you with? I'm making collection rounds.

[gochuugoku]

[A pained expression lights China's face, but only briefly.]

Yes. I do, aru! I will be right down.

[He was only on the first floor, so it doesn't take long before he can be seen carrying the corpse of a woman (who had features similar to his own), bridal-style. He had closed her eyes before taking her out of the apartment.]

[sojournsparrow]

[Haer'Dalis nodded at the corpse]

Was she a friend of yours my good China?

[Haer'Dalis offered his arms, to carry her for him, but then thought about the fact that China may wish to do this himself.]

You can also place it in the cart yourself, if you prefer.

[For several moments, Washu just kind of.. stares out her window at him with a very faintly amused smile on her lips. Congratulations, you managed to cheer her up a tiny bit.

Moments later she turns on her comm to talk.]

What an interesting bell you have there.

[Video]

[sojournsparrow]

[Haer'Dalis was glad to see Washu smiling again, even if just for a little while.]

Well I had to improvise somehow when this thing made me lose the only bell I had found.

Re: [Video]

[madwashu]

[She can't help but chuckle at that.]

Well~, it's a rather creative improvisation and rather humorous. What are you going to do with the cat once you're done with it?

[sojournsparrow]

You know... I haven't entirely decided yet.
