Interesting Iscribble RP

Soldiers: *draw their swords*

Blood Puppet: *is too fast for them and manages to kill two more, laughing as he does so*

meanwhile

Lucifer: ... Perhaps we can kill the bird before the citizens wake from their trance?

Claire: *drops the first soldier and immediately grabs a second one, ripping throats open as she went*

meanwhile

Key: ...You have like.. fire-powers, right? Can't you just burn the bird AND the eyes?

Blood Puppet: *he and Claire are quickly able to murder the entire group* ... I'll be eating one of them, then... which one's the fattest, I wonder...

meanwhile

Lucifer: ... I can't destroy the eyes with my powers. They're too strong for that.

Claire: You go deal with that, then... *finds a soldier that's still in the process of dying, and leans down to drink from him*

meanwhile

Key: ...So how can we get rid of the eyes? D;

Blood Puppet: *he finds a body to eat and does just that, pulling down the mouth-part of his mask to do so*

meanwhile

Lucifer: I don't know yet. That's why we need to keep them.

Claire: *drains the soldier of his blood, and looks around for another to drink from, still hungry...*

meanwhile

Key: ...Can you set the BIRD on fire...?

Blood Puppet: *he continues eating the soldier*

meanwhile

Lucifer: Well, that's what I suggested.

Claire: *decides that the others have been dead too long to drink from them, and waits for Blood Puppet to finish (though she doesn't watch him--the thought of actually EATING another person still grossed her out* ...

meanwhile

Key: Ugh, okay, fine.

Blood Puppet: *he eats quickly* Tasteless... this is why I usually COOK my food... ech.

meanwhile

Lucifer: *he throws a fireball at the bird*

Bird: *with a shriek, it dies*

Lucifer: *makes a mad dash for the eyes*

Claire: *with a hint of sarcasm* Well, maybe next time. Come on, we should go find the others.

meanwhile

Key: *twiddles her fingers* >__>

Blood Puppet: ... Yes. You're right. *he closes his mask and heads back with Claire*

meanwhile

Lucifer: *he manages to retrieve the eyes and head back when he's tackled by a fully-grown dragon and sent plummeting through Air City and down to Concordia, eyes and all* !!!???

Claire: *walks back quietly* ....

meanwhile

Key: !!!!! *gives chase, folding her wings in, dropping like a rock towards them* D8

Blood Puppet: *he reaches the others and gives Mia a little wave*

Altodd: *is biting at his arm to get rid of an itch*

meanwhile

Lucifer: *he transforms into his demon form in order to stand a chance against the force of the dragon. He takes its mouth in his hands and rips its jaw clean off. He still holds tightly onto the eyes*

Mia: *awkwardly returns the wave*

Zorua: *is incredibly quiet, sitting up on Iratus' head*

Sarah: Have a nice lunch? <:P

Claire: Har har.

meanwhile

Key: *tries to avoid looking at the eyes, landing on the dragon's back and grabbing onto its horns--she stabs her long claws into its head*

Blood Puppet: It was delightful.

Altodd: *quietly* ... I miss Key...

meanwhile

Dragon: *dies in the air*

Lucifer: *with a grunt, he throws the dragon away from him and turns back into his human form, clutching the eyes tightly in his hand*

Shidako: She should be back soon...

Sarah: >_>;

Mia: ...

meanwhile

Key: *takes off again, watching the dragon plummet back to the ground. she shouts over at Lucifer* YOU STILL HAVE THE EYES, RIGHT?

up

Blood Puppet: Are you a vampire? :/

meanwhile

Lucifer: ! *follows her*

Claire: Yes.

meanwhile

Key: *tries to find any hint of a gate* Mmh... maybe we have to fly OVER it...?

Blood Puppet: ... Ah, now I know why I recognize you! You're the Lieutenant's MOTHER!

meanwhile

Lucifer: Perhaps that's it. A good way for them to shoot any hot air balloons or planes down before they can land. *he flies up*

Claire: Lieutenant...? You mean Sam?

meanwhile

Key: *follows him, noting how the air wasn't getting any harder to breathe*

Blood Puppet: Yes, the one I've hunted since I've met him.

meanwhile

Lucifer: *he flies into the city*

Bird People and Flying Things: *look over curiously* ?

Claire: ...You know, saying things like what will not help the rest of us like you more. :/

meanwhile

Key: *follows him in, trying to ignore the stares--hopefully, no one would try to attack them...*

Blood Puppet: That's alright. I don't need people to like me.

meanwhile

Lucifer: Come on, let's search the place before they get suspicious...

Claire: Mmh. Not a good way to form alliances with anyone... though you seem like more of a loner to me.

meanwhile

Key: Right... follow the crowd... *glances around for anyone acting suspiciously* ...

Blood Puppet: Mhm... last time I had a partner, I had to kill her. It was an AWFUL experience for both me AND her... but she was going to report me to the police. And we can't ever have THAT...

meanwhile

Lucifer: *he also looks, though in the opposite direction* ...

Claire: ...What happened to make her turn on you like that?

meanwhile

Key: *spots something a few blocks down* ...Hey, do you see that crowd down there?

Blood Puppet: ... I suppose she... regained her senses.

meanwhile

Lucifer: ... Yes I do. Be sure to avert your eyes, Key.

Claire: ...so you did something to her?

meanwhile

Key: *nods, and heads in the direction of the crowd, keeping her eyes glued to the ground*

Blood Puppet: I decapitated her.

meanwhile

Lucifer: *he moves into the lifeless crowd and notices the shimmering of the eyes from a distance. The same bird who took it from them before was perched on top of a cloud-fountain while everyone stares*

Claire: ...Ah. D:

meanwhile

Key: *not looking up* Can you see them?

Blood Puppet: Mh. *he hides behind a tree when he sees a small group of Life City soldiers. The ones Claire must have been smelling*

meanwhile

Lucifer: Yes. A small bird's holding them. Do you think killing it will offend the city?

Claire: ! *also hides--the smell of blood was becoming irresistible at this point* ...

meanwhile

Key: Any way to get the eyes back WITHOUT killing the bird? D;

Blood Puppet: ... *he runs out, katana shimmering in the sun's light*

Soldiers: !!??

meanwhile

Lucifer: ... The bird will fly away if we approach.

Claire: *grabs a soldier that came too close, and immediately bites into his throat, puncturing his jugular with her teeth*

Soldiers: !!!????

meanwhile

Key: Well we don't need people ANGRY with us... D:

up

Blood Puppet: ... If I was just... YOUNGER... if ONLY I was younger... then this wouldn't be a PROBLEM...

meanwhile

Lucifer: You know, Key... You and I are quite similar. We both had wings, then our wings were taken from us, then once more we have wings. Strange how having them again feels, hm?

Mia: *is quiet* ...

meanwhile

Key: I'm really trying not to think about it.

Blood Puppet: ... But you already know that, don't you?

meanwhile

Lucifer: Well, at least you already know HOW to fly.

Mia: *looks away, then nods slightly. could this situation get any more uncomfortable?*

meanwhile

Key: I guess...

Blood Puppet: *he silently looks away from her, his mood brought down further with her confirmation*

meanwhile

Lucifer: ... It shouldn't take too long to get to Air City, and since we have wings, they'll accept us with open arms. You know. Since we're not "freaks".

Mia: *wishes she knew what to say, but she's at a loss for words. everything was just so confusing, she REALLY had no idea what to think about ANY of it* ...

meanwhile

Key: Well that's good... but how long will it take us to find the eyes?

Blood Puppet: *after a while of walking* ... I... need to eat.

Harry: ... I don't think we can hunt anything around here that you'd WANT to eat. You're a cannibal, right?

Blood Puppet: In a sense. I'm not necessarily HUMAN anymore, after all.

meanwhile

Lucifer: We just need to follow the crowd if we want a shot at the eyes... and do be careful. You're susceptible to the gaze.

Sarah: ...Yeah, I don't think we have anyone willing to make themselves a MEAL... D;

Claire: >__>;

Mia: ...

meanwhile

Key: *nods* Right... I guess if you see me space out, I probably found them.

Blood Puppet: ... Perhaps we can find a Life army patrol. None of you could POSSIBLY feel bad for killing one of them... they ARE practically Nazis, right?

Harry: I, um... I guess. <:/

meanwhile

Lucifer: Perhaps Mehnit could help snap you out of it.

Mia: Mmh...

Claire: *is actually feeling a little hungry herself* ...I MAY be taking you up on that offer... >___>;

meanwhile

Key: Perhaps. If she feels like being helpful.

Blood Puppet: You'd really help?

Harry: Just don't try killing HER, or your head will end up stuck in a tree, got it? >:(

Blood Puppet: I have no intention or reason to kill an ally. Unlike SOME people.

meanwhile

Lucfer: Demekarrs hate it when control is ripped from them. Surely that will be enough motivation.

Everyone: <_____<

Claire: Unfortunately, my condition's a bit similar to yours. And I'm a tad hungry. >__>;

meanwhile

Key: *nods* I'll keep that in mind.

Blood Puppet: Well, let's go look for some poor, unlucky soul to feast upon, shall we?

Harry: *watches Blood Puppet closely*

meanwhile

Lucifer: *he nods*

*They fly*

Claire: *nods, and goes to hunt with Blood Puppet*

Mia: ...

meanwhile

Key: *after a bit of flying, she spots something in the distance* ...Is that the city?

Blood Puppet: *he unsheathes his katana, looking around silently*

meanwhile

Lucifer: That massive air-fortress made of clouds? Yes it is.

Claire: *they walk for a little while, until Claire stops him* ...They're close.

meanwhile

Key: ...Cool. No wonder no one's tried attacking them yet...

Blood Puppet: How can you tell?

meanwhile

Lucifer: Indeed. Now to find an entrance...

Claire: The smell of blood gets really strong when I'm hungry. D;

meanwhile

Key: Hrmmm... *flies closer, trying to get a better look at the fortress*

up

Blood Puppet: *he lightly touches his semi-healed wound, wincing a bit from the sharp pain this brings and quickly pulling his hand away. He carefully sits himself up*... No one tried killing me while I was unconscious? Shocking...

Lucifer: Quite shocking. Why DIDN'T we kill him?

Altodd: Because the Mia-person likes him or whatever.

Harry: Let's focus on what we were PREVIOUSLY focusing on please? We need to find a way into Life City. Some sort of way so we don't get caught.

Mia: But I don't... *trails off*

Zorua: *quietly* I could try to disguise myself...

Shidako: *looks over at Blood Puppet* ...HE could get us inside.

Lucifer: Is he willing?

Blood Puppet: ... I... I suppose I could... I guess I HAVE to help you now, since you all spared me while... that MONSTER did not... well, tried not, anyway.

Harry: He's... he's not a monster. He's just confused.

Blood Puppet: Either way, it'd be nice to get back at him. *he takes his mask and puts it on after he fully stands up, buttoning up his coat to conceal his ripped shirt and embarrassingly deep wound*

Lucifer: Very well. Shall we split paths now?

Claire: ... *nods* The quicker we get this done, the quicker we can get back to figuring out how the hell we're going to survive here.

Mia: ... <:/

Key: ... I'll go yell at Mehnit, then...

Lucifer: Yes, well -- Oh! Where shall we meet when all is taken care of?

Harry: Death City?

Lucifer: Good plan. See you there, then. *he waits for Key*

Blood Puppet: ... Off we go, I suppose. *he walks*

Everyone: :/ *follows*

EVeryone but Key: *goes*

Key: ... *sighs, and tries to concentrate. getting Mehnit to cooperate was never easy* ....

Blood Puppet: *he walks along with everyone to Life City, but is constantly watching Mia from the safety of his mask, where his eyes are hidden. Where his face is hidden. With the mask, he is not Walter Hobbes. He is Blood Puppet*

meanwhile

Lucifer: *he waits patiently* ... Come now, Ms. Dawson. Show that demon who's boss.

Mia: *Doesn't really look at Blood Puppet much--she finds him to be completely unrecognizable with the mask on, as if it was the mask itself that changed him* ...

meanwhile

Key: I'm trying... *after a little while, she is successful--she takes on the demekarr form* ...Nnnh... still uncomfortable... how do I get the wings out...?

Blood Puppet: *he takes her silence as an opportunity to simply look at her, taking in her features like one would view the Mona Lisa. He never once thought he'd ever see her again... and yet here she is, a few steps behind him* ...

meanwhile

Lucifer: I'm not entirely sure. All I know is that they rip out of Eclipse's back.

Mia: *glances up and briefly meets his invisible gaze--she quickly looks away*

meanwhile

Key: ...Ow. Okay, I guess I could just... ask...

Mehnit: <Do I get anything in return?>

Key: *quietly* If you help me, MAYBE I'll think of something...

Mehnit: <Can I kill something?>

Blood Puppet: *he backs up a bit so he can walk - and speak - with her* ... Why do you keep torturing me like this...?

meanwhile

Lucifer: ... Be assertive, Key.

Mia: I'm sorry, I'm not doing it on purpose...

meanwhile

Key: I'm trying... dammit, Mehnit, don't make me force you...

Mehnit: <Mhm, yes, you can try all you want. You aren't getting any more from me.>

Key: ...

Mehnit: <...fine.>

Key: --!! *cries out, startled from the brief pain of having the demekarr's large, blade-like wings rip out of her back. For a moment, she was terrified--it had briefly felt like when her first pair of wings was mercilessly torn off hr back* D8!!

Blood Puppet: *through his teeth* But you just can't HELP it, can you? No one wants to deal with ME, no... Not an old man. Especially a HOMICIDAL old man...

meanwhile

Lucifer: Calm down. You did it. The wings are out.

Mia: mmn... *doesn't really know what to think, or what to say. she remains quiet*

meanwhile

Key: *wobbles a bit, suddenly off-balance, trying to get used to having that weight there again* Nnh... It's WAY too familiar...

Blood Puppet: ... So you don't deny it.

meanwhile

Lucifer: Sucks to be you. We need those eyes.*

Mia: ...It's just that you're so DIFFERENT now... it's almost like I don't know you anymore...

meanwhile

Key: I know. >:/ Lead the way, then...

Blood Puppet: ... I'm still the same Walt, Mia... I've just got some new issues tacked onto me...

meanwhile

Lucifer: *he gives Key a nod, unfolding his wings and stretching them a bit before taking off in the air*

Mia: Issues can change people, Walter... I'm just not too sure about ANYTHING right now...

meanwhile

Key: *follows suit, trying not to think about how familiar flying felt*

up

Altodd: He's acting like that because he's CRAZY, okay?? THAT'S IT! SO FREAKING SORRY YOUR BOYFRIEND TRIED TO KILL YOU! D8<

Harry: DB< ...

Key: *FURIOUS* You have NO RIGHT TO TALK!! D8<

Harry: ! Calm down, Key! Remember - you've got a demon thing in you! D8

Altodd: D8/ ??

Key: *huffs* That's a bit much to ask when you have THIS asshole around. >8C

Harry: Well he's an idiot.

Altodd: HEY! D8<

Key: *snorts, but calms down a bit when she sees that Harry agrees with her--the glow in her eyes vanishes*

Harry: *he takes Altodd by the shoulders* ... It doesn't matter if he's Todd or Altodd, or what allegiance he's a part of. He'll always be an idiot.

Altodd: *glares at Harry*

Harry: Now let's get back to the others so we can tell them what really happened.

Key: ... *nods, and starts heading back in the direction of the camp*

*at the camp*

Iratus: (You're okay!) <8D

Sam: What happened? D:>

Harry: Apparently Key and Altodd went away last night while we were probably all sleeping while either later or at the same time - which I guess doesn't matter - Todd ran off.

Blood Puppet: *is still unconscious*

Altodd: ... *he retrieves his clothes and walks off somewhere to go change into them. A part of him doesn't want to wear clothes at all. A wild sort of part of him*

Zorua: *is very quiet* ...

Key: *is waiting for Altodd to return her coat* ...

Mia: *casts a worried glance over at Blood Puppet* ...

Harry: ... We need to find him.

Lucifer: NO! We've wasted ENOUGH time trying to find him! We need to get those eyes! D8<

Iratus: (But only you and Key can fly...) <:/

Blood Puppet: *unconscious*

Altodd: *he comes back but has left his shirt off, deciding to only wear his pants. He hands Key her coat* Here.

Key: *takes the coat back, wondering why he's still only half-dressed* ...

Sarah: Then you and Key can go to Air City and find the eyes, while the rest of us try to get Todd back. :/

Lucifer: Do you even think he WANTS to come back?

Harry: W -

Lucifer: If you do, then you are a FOOL. His only reason to come back was for Key, and he tried to KILL her. D:<

Sam: D:>

Blood Puppet: *unconscious*

Altodd: ... Well maybe we can try. Maybe deep down he still loves her.

Key: *puts her coat on, saying nothing* ...

Claire: ...Whatever the case may be, we still need a plan. Iratus was right, only the two of you can fly, and we may as well spend out time down here doing something useful.

Lucifer: Where will we find you if we go?

Altodd: Well, Todd's probably gone running back to were he came from, right?

Harry: ... Life City...

Sam: But... can we even get in?

Blood Puppet: *he groans weakly, waking up*

Sarah: We could try sneaking in...

Mia: *notices Blood Puppet moving* !!

up

Altodd: H-how are you still alive if he was STRANGLING you?? D8>

Key: *calms down a bit* L-Lucifer had to FORCE him to let go... *even quieter, as if she still couldn't believe it* he was going t-to KILL me...

Altodd: ... Well. That... okay. Okay then. Well, it's over now... uh... right? *he's not as good at reassuring people as his counterpart. He used to, but... that burned away with his sanity and humanity*

Key: ...I don't know h-how I'm going to fix this, Altodd... I-I couldn't fix it with you, how can I...?

Altodd: I dunno. Find another boyfriend?

Key: *bitterly* Uh huh, like i have so many fracking OPTIONS... you have NO IDEA how I feel right now, Altodd, stop trying to "HELP."

Altodd: *the hair on the back of his neck and on his arms bristles in his annoyance. His voice holds hints of a bubbling growl in his throat* WELL, at least I'm trying. And at least I'm not STRANGLING you. >:(

Key: *glares at him, the red in her eyes glowing slightly* AT least he didn't rape me.

Altodd: I honestly feel bad ENOUGH about that, you really have to bring it up again??

Key: *deadpan* Yes.

Altodd: D8< ... *he quickly walks away from Key*

Harry: *runs over and sees then* !!! OH GOD -- OH FREAKING - THANK GOD YOU'RE ALRIGHT! D8>

Key: *her anger immediately fades* Harry! Yeah, we're okay, why wouldn't we be? Besides the fact that I was stuck with a werewolf all night? <:/

Harry: Todd's gone! H-he's just GONE! He LEFT! When we woke up and saw you two gone as well, we thought he either killed or kidnapped you guys! D8>

Altodd: Well, we're fine. :/

Key: Todd's GONE?! So Lucifer didn't get to....?? D8>

Harry: No, he never got a chance to! D8>

Altodd: ... Good riddance, I think.

Key: *snaps at Altodd* Shut UP! *to Harry* W-We need to find him and figure out why he's like that...!

up

Altodd: ... Key... did I hurt anyone?

Key: *shakes her head* You didn't...

Altodd:... Okay... good. Why are we alone out here?

Key: ...Because things got a little crazy last night and I needed to think. You followed me out here. And covered me in wolf drool. <:P

Altodd: ... Oh. Sorry. Maybe we should head back?

Key: *nods, and stands up, looking back in the direction they came. would she be able to face Todd again?*

Altodd: ... What's wrong? *he doesn't remember Todd revealing himself to the group. He was a werewolf at that point*

Key: ... Todd came back. With Blood Puppet, and some dragon-lady who looked like Shidako. He... *bites her lip, not really wanting to say what happened--she KNEW what he would say*

Altodd: *he looks at her, a serious - a GRAVE expression on his face* ... He what?

Key: ...He had come looking for you, but you had run off somewhere... He went after Mia but Blood Puppet stopped him... Todd almost KILLED him... I yelled at him, but... he... *quietly* he tried to kill me...

Altodd: ... ... *he remains silent for a while, before quietly replying* ... But look, see? I was right about him... We're the same person... we've just experienced different things.

Key: *snaps at him before he finishes his last sentence* I KNOW!! Don't you think I REALIZED THAT?! *huffs, and turns away* W-What he said... h-he said the EXACT SAME THING you did when... when you... I-I don't know what to think anymore...!

Altodd: *he feels awful when Key brings up their little... incident. He looks away from her, rubbing his neck* ...

Key: *just keeps going--now that she's started, she can't seem to stop* I-It was TERRIFYING, it was like I was back in that room a-and I couldn't move, I c-couldn't even SAY anything I was so scared I just sat there like an IDIOT and let him get THAT CLOSE to strangling me to death a-and I couldn't... I-I couldn't...

up

Altodd: *gives her a tiny lick on the cheek*

Key: ... *lets her head thump against his shoulder, closing her eyes. she was exhausted. everything was going to hell, and she was just sick and tired of it all*

Altodd: *he whines, sensing that Key is troubled*

Key: *quietly* S'kay... s'not you... not anymore, anyway...

Altodd: *he nuzzles her some more, loosening his grip on her, his stub-tail wagging slightly*

Key: *doesn't move from her spot. she lifts a hand, and slowly starts rubbing Altodd's neck* ......

Altodd: *enjoys this. He just nuzzles Key some more, a grin on his snout once more*

*later, the sun begins to rise*

Altodd: *he backs off, away from Key, growling at the air, at the sun. He slowly changes back to his human self. Once he does, still on all fours, Altodd collapses with a weak, exhausted sigh*

Key: ! .... *takes her coat off, and puts it over him to cover him up, at least until he wakes up again* ... <:/

Altodd: *he sleeps rather peacefully despite his night of being a total animal. He's relaxed, almost looking RELIEVED to be human again*

Key: *sits in front of him, waiting for him to wake up* ...

Altodd: *after an hour of sleeping, he finally starts shifting around, regaining consciousness, and opens his eyes, squinting and blinking from the morning light. He's very confused, not quite understanding what had happened, or why he is away from the group in the middle of the forest with Key* ...?

Key: ! ...Hey. Do you remember anything? :/

Altodd: ... *takes a few seconds for him to respond* Mnn... nnno... *he sits up, but realizes he's completely naked, and covers himself with Key's coat* D///8> Wh-why am I...??

Key: *glances away out of respect when she sees him getting up* You're a werewolf, remember? You transformed last night...

Altodd: W-werewolf -- I-I remember - I remember... PAIN... a horrible, UNBEARABLE pain... and FEAR... fear from other people... coming... OFF of them... off of... you...

Key: ... *nods* I won't say I wasn't scared. I had every reason to be.

up

Altodd: *he then has to stop to scratch his neck, using his claws*

meanwhile

Todd: *hissing at Zorua, opting to not use his powers on her. This way seems more... fun* Tell me where they are, Zorua... tell me where the eyes are. Do it, or I'll slice your throat! D:<

Key: ? *pauses to wait for him* ...

meanwhile

Zorua: *is obviously quite terrified, and it shows, even through her mental voice* (W-We don't know who has them...!) D8>

Altodd: *he then pulls Key into a giant hug*

meanwhile

Todd: Well... WHERE did you see them LAST?? D8<

Key: !! Nnnnoooo... D; *gently tries to pry his arms open*

meanwhile

Zorua: (I-It was in Death City... A-A bird took them, Lucifer thinks it went t-to Air City!) D8>

Altodd: *does not loosen his hug the slightest bit, and in fact starts licking her*

meanwhile

Todd: ... Thank you, Zorua. Now I'm going to let you go and part ways with this group... you tell ANYONE that you gave me this info, and I'll come back and dissect you like a frog... understand?

Key: Ah!-- No no no cut that out! DX

meanwhile

Zorua: *whimpers, and nods*

Altodd: *he just keeps licking Key, ignoring her demand for him to stop*

meanwhile

Todd: ... Good. *he lets her go, puts his mask back on, and runs off into the night*

Key: Ew ew ew ew ew ew ew ew

meanwhile

Zorua: *watches him leave, eyes still wide in fear--she cuddles closer to Iratus* D8>

Altodd: *just keeps licking her, giving Key a "bath"*

meanwhile

Iratus: *unconsciously nuzzles her*

Key: Oh my god Altodd please stop this is really really gross ew ew ew ew

meanwhile

Zorua: *tries to fall asleep again*

Altodd: *he nuzzles Key a bit and in a rather loving way*

Key: Mmmhhhh... I would've appreciated it if you HADN'T covered me in drool, Altodd...

Altodd: *he just keeps nuzzling her affectionately, his semi-furry snout brushing against her face*

Key: ... *sighs, and lets him, relaxing in the beast's arms* ...

up

Lucifer: *works on Blood Puppet*

Blood Puppet: *he squirms under the blue flames, hurting and healing at once*

Altodd: *he cocks his head, confused*

Todd: *unconscious*

Iratus: *hugs Zorua to himself* D:>

Sam: *feels uncomfortable* D:> ...

Mia: *watches silently*

Key: *continues to cry*

Zorua: *snuggles into Iratus* <:(

Sarah: *also feels incredibly uncomfortable*

Shidako: *silent* ...

Claire: ...I think we should all try to get some rest... It's been a long night.

Lucifer: *healing Blood Puppet* Excellent idea.

Everyone: *tries getting some sleep*

Altodd: *howls*

Todd: *unconscious*

Blood Puppet: *same*

Mia: *waits* ...

Key: *jumps when Altodd howls, scooting away from him a bit* !

Lucifer: *finishes with Blood Puppet* There. >:/ *he finds a tree to leans against and forces himself asleep*

Blood Puppet: *unconscious*

Altodd: *rubs his snout with his monstrous hand*

Everyone: *asleep*

Mia: <:( ... *wipes her hands off on his coat, muttering a quiet apology before moving over towards Iratus and Zorua*

Key: *stares at Altodd for a moment before looking over at Lucifer--she sighs. looks like she wasn't getting any sleep tonight...*

Everyone: *asleep*

Altodd: *he stays near Key, sniffing her*

Key: *looks back at him. She's TIRED, emotionally drained, and it shows in her face and her voice* ...What? What do you want? To say "I told you so"?

Altodd: *he just licks her arm in response, his little tail stub wagging, his muscular frame quivering from the delight of having a buddy awake to keep him company*

Everyone Else: *asleep*

Key: ... *sighs* Whatever... *looks over at Todd, then quickly looks away. she couldn't deal with the fact that Altodd--the OLD Altodd--had been right* ....... *stands up* ...Come on, we're going for a walk... *turns, and leaves the others, walking into the forest*

Altodd: *his ears prick up when he hears "walk" and he joyfully follows Key deeper into the forest, stub still wagging*

Key: *crosses her arms, walking forward, not really knowing where she was headed. she just needed to clear her head, it had all been too much for her to handle... she glances over at Altodd, and almost cracks a smile when she sees how silly he looked... almost* ...

Altodd: *He walks along with her, oblivious to how she feels about him -- about ANYTHING. Unknowing of what has happened both now, and in the morning when he becomes human again. Still, with a wide grin on his snout, panting happily, he walks*

Key: *after a little while, she outs a hand on his shoulder, running her claws through his fur as they walked. why couldn't everything be this simple?*

Altodd: *he enjoys this, and leans over to nuzzle Key's cheek*

Key: *flinches away slightly, gently nudging his snout away with her other hand. this was close enough...*

Altodd: *is pushed away, which puzzles him. Still, he continues walking along, keeping his tongue slightly poked out of his mouth before deciding to lick his muzzle*

meanwhile

Todd: *he breaks free from Lucifer's command and creeps over to Zorua. He puts a claw to her tiny throat and holds her down with a heavy hand. He whispers harshly in her ear* Wake up!

Key: *continues to walk, her hand still on his side, trying not to think too much*

meanwhile

Zorua: ! *is startled awake, and freezes when she feels the claw on her throat* D8 ...
