Multi chin dude!
*Valencia:
*Hugs Alastair*
(Elleni - I'm sure Leri won't be angry or anything. She doesn't really get angry. Plus in her culture thinking of other people before yourself is practically required.
Nice ded Alastair.)
Hear, hear!
Anymore abuse? Good god, I'm going to give her abuse.
((No, Loki, you're not.))
Loki.
-_-
Omg, I'm working on my mask right now and I'm so proud of it!!
((Use your imagination. I won't even answer that question.))
*pokes Elleni*
Am I on there anywhere?
(Elleni - she did manage to shoot The Dark Shadow in the shoulder. Not that it did anything.
She wouldn't blame you - she'd blame The Dark Shadow. She was the one who suggested a distraction in any case./
The Dark Shadow: *hisses in Loki's ear* It amusesssss me... Hearing oneeeee as incompetentttttt as yourselfffff saying the wordsssss "good godddddd".
Do you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to dump her in a realm, and leave her. Perhaps the Dark Elves will like that pathetic excuse for a human, and then we'll go to Jodenheim and let the Frost Giants kill her. I'll rip her little heart out.
*Lorcan brushed off his hands as he finished placing rocks in a circle for a firepit. He stood up and smiled as Casha thumbed another page to the book he had gotten her.*
Lorcan: I'll be back in a minute babe, I'm just gonna go and grab some proper wood for the fire. Will you be okay?
Casha: Yeah sure, I'll shout if I need you.
*He smiled again as he made his way across the stream to the small bunch of pine trees gathered on the far side.*
*Valencia stands outside of the house, and begins to put sigils on the trees encircling it, which a sheen begins to glow, barricading the house, so that no being may enter the area without direct permission from Alastair*
*Valencia waves, then sets off for Loki, roaming the forest, calling his name*
Thanks! And I finally found a way to support it!
(Cause I made it out of tinfoil)
I used athletic tape!
*the two are in their home*
The Dark Shadow: Youuuu couldn'tttttt evennnnnn rip the legsssss from a spiderrrr, evennnnn if you triedddddd...
(Jotunheim?)
Oh good!
((It won't stop correcting it, so I'm not even trying.-Zaf
@Elleni *laughs*
Agreed!
*Valencia calls for Loki again, holding out her sword*
*Adra has reclined a little on the couch, her feet resting on the cushion* *Remains curled up, holding Alastair's coat around herself*
(Elleni - it attacks everyone in one way or another. It's cool like that. It sees no reason why it should limit itself to one target and instead just goes after everyone - evident by its plan to lock a whole load of people in different dimensions.)
(
*sits with Zanida, oblivious to Valencia*
*retreats back into the house, joining Adra* She drew sigils around the house to keep him out. But she also warned me that we might have brief, undetailed visions or dreams of what happened in the alternate timeline, so I'll watch your dreams more carefully for you.
*misses the high five and hits Elleni in the face*
Oops!
Sorry!
*snickers*
(Sorry, in back now!)
(Sorry phone sent it for some reason.)
(It also wants to protect the earth, kind of. Although death would give it an energy boost, it would only be quick whereas things like pain and fear provides lasting energy which it wants instead. It doesn't want anyone to die in their universes, it thinks their deaths can happen later when it's absorbed all the energy.)
*Valencia walks toward Loki, then stands in front of him, digging her sword into the ground* Loki Laufeyson.
*turns into mist*
Bad idea!
*solidifies behind her*
You have mosquito on your head!
*slaps the back of her head*
*turns into mist again*
Oops it flew away!
What do you want? I am busy.
*Adra smiles gratefully* Thank you, love... And I will watch over you when you sleep. *Pats the seat beside her* Is there a way that we can both sleep at the same time, and still stay connected and influence the other's dreams?
*Valencia's face is hard* Clearly not, Loki. I am here to threaten you, if you must know.
*She is still reeling over the events earlier. She didn't know if Aretha was dead or not. She didn't know what was illusion and wha was reality. She just didn't know. Her whole personality seemed to have changed over the past few days. If she wanted to survive, she had to be strong. She had to protect others*
Threaten me all you want. I am not afraid of a Midgardian.
Zanida: Valencia, just go.
*solidifies inside the vacuum*
*the vacuum bursts open, not big enough for a human*
Hehe!
The Dark Shadow: Busyyyyy? Is standinggggg stilllll too muchhhhh for your tinyyyyy brainnnnn to handleeeee?
I... Hearrrr no threatssssss... You couldddddd at leasttttt tryyyy... Insultinggggg this incompetenttttt foollllll is easyyyy, hmmmm?
Is not! I think it would because I'm so much bigger than it is! It's true! Have you ever tried to fit in a vacuum? If you got in it it would burst. It would.
Also, ok!
(Seems I have to go now. Bye!)
Bye Dragona!
*Lorcan gathered quite a few logs and he began to walk back towards the cave. As he came out of the tree line and hit the river, he heard a scream.*
Lorcan: Casha?!!
*He dropped the logs and ran just as he saw a group of 3 men outside the cave, one of them grabbing and dragging Casha.*
Lorcan: Casha!!!!!!!
*He was nearly out of the river when he heard a solid thump. He stopped as his breath caught in his throat. He felt up his back and could feel the slick pole of an arrow sticking out. He splashed a foot forward as another two thumps rang out.
He landed onto his knees in the water as he watched these group of bounty hunters pull his girlfriend and child away.*
Casha: *screams* LORCAN!!!!!!!
Lorcan: *whimpers as he falls face first into the water.*
*Her eyes narrow*
*Kicks her sword from the ground, and presses the top of it against his chest* Loki Laufeyson, if you dare ever lay a single harmful hand on Adra or Alastair, then I will tear my way into your beloved Jötunheimr, and find your Sigyn. I will then proceed to remove her flesh and muscle until she is begging me to kill her. I will tie her rotting corpse to a pole, and use her as a flag, then, and parade around with her until her body is spread throughout all of the corners of Midgard.
*Seethes* Do I make myself clear, Loki, son of Laufey and Fárbauti?
((Probably distant/msd.))
*sits beside her, and wraps his arms around her, pulling her close against him* Perhaps... It would be difficult, since it would have to rely on intent rather than conscious effort, but I'll think about it, see if I can come up with anything.
*She gets to her feet, the sound of voices close. Her legs were healed from jumping off the tree, but that hand... She couldn't do anything about it. She stays to the cover of trees and peers out, instantly tensing as her eyes landed on Loki*
Yes?
*looks at her innocently*
*one hand is inside of her Jean jacket on the secret pocket that has her squirt gun filled with extremely powerful perfume that only time can get rid of and her normal gun*
*Nods* As shall I. *Wraps an arm around him, resting her head on his shoulder* I wonder what happened to us... That made us have to come back through time?
*A scream. She turns quickly and races off, scared of what Loki might do if he knew. She runs back to where Lorcan and Casha's cave is, grateful for accepting their invitation a few days earlier*
Are you guys alright?
*Then she sees the men. She sends each a quick glare and looks around. Lorcan. They need Lorcan*
((Hello, Judhipor, Emerald.))
I died. I'm confident of that. But I don't know how. And I'm not sure what happened to you, except that Loki took you back to his realm... *pulls closer to her, burying his face in her hair*
(Yo, Alice! Wassup?)
Very well, perhaps it is good Laufey already killed her.
Hi Deathy! Hi Emerald!!!
Poor Elleni!
:(
*huggles*
*gives her a glass of water and an Advil*
(Hey Dugg!))
(Hey hey hey!!)
(Did Judhipor just look at the guys or are they dead now or...??)
*Just as he finishes speaking, she feels the echo of a cold chill again, then a sickly and sore feeling* *One that she's felt before- a very long time ago*
*She shrinks against him* I'm glad you didn't die... I don't think I know what I would do..
Hi!
(Nope, Judi gave them the equivalent of an electric shock. A really big electric shock. She's going to kill them nice and slow for doing that.)
*Valencia smirks* Lucky her, then. *Swings her sword around*
The offer still stands, Loki Laufeyson. You seem to forget that I'm capable of manipulating time.
I can easily change her death..
((You know, Loki, I meant to ask you- if you have someone waiting at home, why start to fall for Valencia? And if there is one, who besides Sigyn would if be?))
Kk!
^.^
(But Judhi doesn't know about the one that shot Lorcan. He's the best in the business. Just... trust me.)
*Casha watched as all the men dropped like flies. She was getting ready to get to Lorcan when a hand came around and covered her mouth, a knife against her pregnant belly.*
Man: Don't. Just, don't. It's been a long night.
*The man walked backwards towards a van parked hidden in the woods from the cave. He kicked the back door and it opened to reveal a woman waiting in there. He handed Casha over to her, making sure she stayed quiet.*
Man: Keep her quiet until we've cleared the woods.
*He waved the knife at her belly again. Casha whimpered. The man closed the door and started up the van as they began to drive off.*
*The blood from Lorcan's back was starting to drip and flow down the river. He faintly heard an engine come on. His Casha. His Casha and baby...*
NARWHALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What do you do with a bottle of non edible pineapple extract?
Narwhals?
He would only continue to kill her. She is better off dead.
((Basically, I was messing around with Valencia. Astrid is her name, she and Zanida were 'sisters' until the truth came. My author actually is planning to write more out about Astrid tonight.-Loki))
(Aw, poop.)
*She looks at the van and shakes her head. Death of two or possible death of one? She sprints after the car, using the gravity to launch her into the air and land silently atop the truck*
I'm sorry...
*She repulses the atoms in the metal and it ruptures open. She lands inside, already glaring*
I'm sorry, but Casha is mine.
Yes Snow! Narwhals!!!!
Dug, I replied to your last comment on be the glue, but I think I answered all questions
*curls his fingers into her hair as he hugs her* I'm glad you're alright.
*The man driving the van swings back around and fires a cross bow three times into Judhipor's chest.*
Man: You better get to the boyfriend before he bleeds out! Plus, don't think I won't hesitate to flip this van off the nearest cliff.
Get. Out.
*Casha is weeping hard at this stage as she just stares at the arrow's. She can still hear it as they hit Lorcan, him lying face down in the water.*
Casha: *gasps, trying to catch her breath.* Lorcan... lorcan...
*Presses the sword tighter into Loki's throat* You are a sad creature, Loki..
*She slowly lowers her sword* And I was weak for being attracted to you.
*Adra nods, shutting her eyes, and leaning against him* Alastair, what did you do when you were human?
Thanks Snow! It is so cool! I'm your number one fan!!!
Yay! Elleni! You're back!
*still has her hand in her pocket*
What?
*looks innocent*
You mean before my name was stolen?
*She holds up her hand and forces the gravity to pull the arrows down before they hit her*
What? Shit. Lorcan.
*She looks at Casha, then the back door. She can't just leave her to save him. She won't. Two deaths is bigger than one. She reaches out and takes Casha's hand*
Trust me, okay? This might hurt but I'll be out in a sec. Make your way back to Lorcan, I'll be there soon.
*She looks at the doors and repulses them, making them fly off their hinges. She pushes Casha out and turns to the men, glaring at them*
You will pay for messing with my friends today.
-_- right back at you!
#be like a duck!
*Nods* yes, before that.
You are weak, I was never attracted. At least Astrid is Asgardian, and actually pretty.
*Casha cries out in pain as she rolls onto the dusty track road. She winces as she grabs her side, checking if the baby is okay but she sees that glowing silver hue around her bump again. She sighed in relief. She looked back at the van as she started hearing men scream.
She stood up and looked around. She couldn't tell where she was, how far they had taken her. But then she heard rushing water and gasped as she started running the best she could towards the sound.*
*reaches into her other pocket and pulls out a cucumber bar*
Hehehehee, chocolate!!!!!
*Valencia grins* Of course, Loki. Of course...
*She sheathes her sword, her face suddenly serious* I had better not find you near them again, Loki.
**chocolate
*She hardens the glare before jumping out the back doors and sprinting towards Casha*
Sorry. Just, sorry!
*She scans the approaching river, already preparing herself for a floating, lifeless body*
I worked as a blacksmith for a while, and then traveled, stealing resources when I needed them and killing people when I wanted to. Why do you ask?
*laughs and vanishes, appearing just outside where they are*
Zanida: Just don't kill me, I'm not in a mood to die.
*Casha did say anything. She just sprinted quicker as much as her bloated body would allow her to. She stopped as her feet touched the water of the river and she looked around. She couldn't see anything.
She started walking the side of the river until she came close to the cave entrance, she hunkered down when she spotted something in the water. She picked up the 3 arrows that she saw sticking out of Lorcan when he fell in the water. She stood, scanning the river again.*
Casha: Lorcan??!!! LORCAN??!!!
Judhipor, I don't see him. He should be right here.
(Loki, there is a sphere surrounding the home- you can not enter without Alastair's permission..)
*Valencia immediately jumps into flight, and lands beside Loki* You aren't entering.
-
*Adra smiles faintly* I was only curious- as to how you were. *Sighs* Blacksmith? That's pretty hot.
*She looks around even quicker, her hands starting to shake. Her eyes rest on the arrows and then look around again*
~You let him die too, didn't you? You saved the girl but couldn't save him. Pathetic.~
*She lets out a roar of anger, frustration and desperation*
LORCAN! WHERE ARE YOU?!
*She lifts both herself and Casha into the air and scans beneath them*
LORCAN!!!!
*smiles, kissing her lightly* I'm glad you think so. I had to learn it at some point, to make my own knives.
*Casha adjusts her eyes to the height when she looks down the river, a good 20 feet away from the cave. She could see a black shape against the canyon wall. She points.*
Casha: There. What's that??
Ahhh, so it all comes together. Is that what you did mainly? Weaponry? Or could you make horseshoes and pots and pans?
That, is a very stupid rule. *fires sceptre at a window* Perhaps I'll pay Aretha a visit, she'll play nice.
*She sees it too*
I don't know... You stay up there, I'll check it out. If it's not Lorcan, then I don't want you in any more trouble.
*She looks sternly at Casha before letting herself drop, catching herself inches from the ground. She walks towards the black shape and looks at it carefully*
Hello...?
Hello!!!
*The energy would shoot back* All objects, Loki.
*Lorcan shakes his head, he still had a lot of water in his system, his vision blurry. He just heard a voice and started trying to get up from where he was sitting to catch his breath.
He was able to stand and he began to painfully quickening his pace when his legs gave out under him.*
Lorcan: Shit...
(Hey Amy! Hello Raven!))
Hi Amy!
*pulls out her squirt gun filled with perfume*
*it looks like a real gun*
Don't. Eat. My. Face. Or. My. Eye!
My parents set me up with an apprenticeship, initially, and at the start of that, the man I worked under did most of the weaponry himself, leaving me many of the other tasks, such as horseshoes and kitchen supplies. But I had more of a talent for weapons, so after a few months our roles had reversed. It's been centuries since I made anything but a weapon.
Hi Raven!
You can't eat my face either!
Have to go. Dinner. Will probably be back after dinner!
Hey Dugglyn.
I think I've made a rule, don't eat anyone's faces, you can however, lick the blood of said person, if it is of a colour other than red.
Hello everyone! How are you all?
I'm good Amy, how are you?
Lorcan! You crazy bastard!
*She brings Casha down on Lorcan's other side. She reaches out to grab his arm, to hold him still*
Rest. Sit. Casha and I will take care of you. Lorcan, I'm going to do my best to heal you, alright?
*She taps the symbol with her wrist and lets the magic work on Lorcan*
You crazy bastard. Good job at not dying.
No eating people's faces? D:
*vanishes and appears a foot away from the energy* This, is stupid. I rather- *the Bifrost opens and a woman is standing a few feet from him, she is an inch or so shorter then Loki, her hair is blonde, and eyes are a blue like an ocean, Astrid* Astrid....Heimdall sent you.
Astrid: I sent myself.
*Smiles gently* And how did you live? Was it a comfortable life? Good business?
It's just not my thing Amy, I's rather eat worms and crickets than faces, just a personal preference.
(Hi Astrid! Please tell Loki that emotionally torturing someone is bad, please. He doesn't listen to me.))
*Valencia turns, and readies her sword, her armor gleaming by the light* *Could herself be mistaken for an Asgardian* Not another.. Please tell me that you are here to control Loki.
*Lorcan can't still hear that well, his ears were still blocked from the water but did she just say Casha?*
Lorcan: No! Casha, we have to get Casha. The bastards, they got her.
*He felt a hand against his face and he instantly took in a breath as he felt the familiar warmth of her hand. He held it tightly against his face and kissed her palm.*
Lorcan: *whispers* Oh thank god...
*Casha smiles as takes out a bit of a rag from her back pocket.*
Casha: Stay as still as you can, I'm gonna try and get the water out of your ears the best I can.
*He nodded as he closed his eyes and rested his head back against the canyon wall. He didn't even understand how he survived that either.*
*sprinkles salt and edible glitter on Dugglyn*
*noms her face while she is away*
At least you remembered the salt Amy, Dugglyn would be proud.
Astrid: I do not control my fiance, I do advise him.
Why did you come?
Astrid: To be with you, Loki. *her eyes drift to Valencia* What has he done? I am assuming that broken window is his doing?
You are both in desperate need of security. At least let me he you back to your shelter.
*She lifts them both up as subtlety as possible and brings them towards the cave. She takes them inside and collapses on the ground outside. Her magic was running low*
*nods to Raven*
And the salt is what will make the eating of her face okay!
*noms on it more*
*Valencia eyes Astrid* He once kissed me. On top of that, he has intentions of forcing a Midgardian into intercourse, and has done so, yet we have changed it. Furthermore, he's been terrorising the people here.
Yes, the window is by him.
I have to go do my Math homework. I will be back after it is all done, I will not procrastinate any longer.
*Casha helps Lorcan lie down as she covers him with a blanket. She runs her fingers through his hair as he fell asleep through exhaustion. She then grabs the spare blanket and hands it to Judhipor.*
Casha: You need to rest too. You've done so much for us but you need to keep your strength up.
*Casha grabs her pillow and sits on it as she stokes up the fire, it was holding steady but would need more wood in the morning. Casha sighs as she lays a hand on her bump.*
I lived quite well, for a while. But I've never lived so comfortably as I do now, when we're not being hunted. *kisses her hair*
Elleni...
*rushes to her and sprinkles salt and sugar on it*
*noms her face*
*She pulls the blanket off and tosses it back to Casha*
I'm honestly fine. I just can't see very well and I think that I might be sick on that wonderful blanket of yours, but thank you.
*She puts a hand to her head, dizzy*
Is it possible for someone to fall over when they're lying down? Well, that's what it feels like...
*Adra smiles* That's good to hear. *Thinks for a moment* If you don't mind me asking- what of your parents? We're you fond of them?
Astrid: He....what?! *turns and back hands him* Loki, I swear....Is that why the man, Alastair, wants you dead?
*actually flinches from her slap* Yes.
Astrid: May I take my idiot and speak to Alastair, Valencia?
No more nomming face... D:
Ah! Raven!
*goes to Raven and sprinkles some salt and pepper on her face*
*noms it*
Casha: I feel like that all the time really.
*She looks over at Lorcan before looking back at her hands.*
He doesn't know it but I've been a lot more sicker with this pregnancy than he knows about.
He just does so much to protect us both from everything, I don't need him pussy footing around me 24/7 too.
Can I ask you something, why are you so attracted to him?
*Valencia shakes her head* I'm afraid not. He is resting, and I am doubtful that he will want to see either of you.
Sometimes. Not typically. They were convinced that I was possessed, if not an incarnation of the devil, for quite some time, so they weren't exactly fond of me. Even after they seemed content that I wasn't an evil supernatural being, they were wary of me. They tried to apprentice me, the day they deemed me old enough, to nearly everyone in town and the surrounding area, and the blacksmith was the only one who seemed willing to take me. So I moved into his attic, and only saw my parents twice after that.
Astrid: Well perhaps, he would like to speak to me alone?
No. He'll kill or torture you, Alastair deserves to die.
Astrid: Like he would suceed.
*Brushes her fingers over his jaw, and to his lips* I'm sorry to hear that, Alastair. That sounds terrible.
*She nods understandingly*
That must really suck. I won't ask about it, the less I know, the less Loki can use against me. But, I'm sorry.
He does a great job at protecting you. But you can't just be two people forever. You will always need help, no matter what. And I'll be here whenever.
*She pauses, thinking*
That's a tough one... I honestly don't know. I think I tried to kill him a few times but then he got sick and was so confused and weak... And then he died. Right in front of me. It's... I don't know... I just don't like seeing him hurt...
*Valencia remains still* I apologise, Astrid, but both Adra and Alastair are to be left alone.
Astrid: When he is free, I would like to speak.
Zanida: Why do...we need to leave him alone? He would want to know the latest thing I- I had...*is coughing up her own blood*
Astrid: This day cannot get worse.
Be right back! I must go eat dinner!
*Her eyes narrow* I honestly doubt that, Zanida.
*Sticks the tip of her sword into the ground* The three of you- leave here.
*leans slightly into her touch* It does make me sound rather tragic, I suppose, but it wasn't so bad as it seems. I did have a basic education, which was very much a privilege in my time, and a fine occupation. I learned rather quickly not to care for others' opinions of me, so stares and distrust hardly bothered me.
Casha: His fighting spirit. That's understandable. With everything he's gone through, it's amazing that he still has that spirit.
It's not just Loki we have to worry about. As well as the bounty hunters, Lorcan's ex girlfriend Alexis, found out about me and him and the baby. She wants me dead now as well. She's working alongside Loki.
We can't be with other people, it leads to too much dying or hurting or god knows what else.
I just...
*She stopped talking, the tears threatening to fall again and she didn't know if she had the energy to cry any more over people wanting her and her only family now dead.*
Zanida: He infected me, as a test, I'm coughing up my own damn blood, Valencia. Ask him yourself.
I know when one lies, Zanida speaks truthfully. *puts arm around Astrid and vanishes*
*Adra blinks back a few tears, then pulls him against her* You sad, lonely man.. *Presses her head into his shoulder* I'm glad you found me.
-
*Valencia gives Zanida a steely look* Then perhaps you should not have hurt Adra. *Flips the sword, and hits the handle against Zanida's chest to push her away* Leave.
*She gets up and stumbles over to sit beside Casha, her head spinning*
Lorcan is great. That spirit is insane.
And yes, Alexis... I heard about that. I'll try my best to put a stop to it. And Loki, in my opinion, is my biggest threat. He can control me at any moment. But when Alexis learns my true name, then I'm going to have to stay away from you guys forever.
*She wraps an arm around Casha's shoulders, squeezing her gently*
It's okay. He's just like... Like a brother to me. I don't want my family to die. And I know how you feel about it too. It sucks. My mum was killed because of me. Well, Rose's mum was. They wanted me as a bargaining chip in the war. And I know the feeling. But I won't let anyone try and kill you. I promise.
Zanida: *puts hand on sword, melting the metal* Do not order me around, Valencia.
*laughs lightly, stroking her hair* I do hope I don't come across that way. But I'm certainly glad I found you, as well.
Alexis: Silverrose, kill Lorcan's girl friend.
Then do not give me reason to, Zanida.
Casha: *whispers* It might have been easier for him to have died before now. It would be easier than him having to deal with heartache or anger or...
*The baby kicked against her, it was a playful but hard kick. She didn't even think, whenever Lorcan was beside her, she always just grabbed his hand. She did the same with Judhipor without saying a word and placed her hand on the bump as the baby kicked around again.*
*She freezes and looks at Casha*
LORCAN!! HELP!
*Her hand reaches up and grabs onto Casha's throat. She is glaring steadily at her, just enough to make her scream*
Zanida: I do not want Adra hurt. In Asgard, this would be the way one would swear over something. You have my word, I do not wish harm upon either Alastair or Adra.
You didn't come off that way. *Leans her head against his* I like to think that, despite lacking sight, I have an ability to see things that others are unable to detect- layers to each person, peer deeper into others more than they are able to do themselves... *Places her hand against his cheek* That is what I think.
(I hate you Alexis... *Sobs*))
*Valencia takes a step forward* Then leave.
*Casha screams but the baby kicks in with a powerful forcefield again, holding Judhipor back against the cave wall, reflecting any powers away from it's mother.
Lorcan shoots up despite his wounds and tiredness. He is covered in his silver with that angry look and snarl upon his face.*
Lorcan: I'm getting fucking sick of this! You're a true name!!!! The highest level of power known to any person. You need to do something. Or else I'm gonna kill you Judhi.
*closes his eyes, running his fingers through her hair* It seems quite fair to say that, if nothing else, you've been able to read me better than I do myself... You seemed convinced more than anyone else that I had a capacity for kindness around this time last year, when I would've mocked the mere suggestion of falling in love.
I can't, Lorcan! I can't control it!
*She's sobbing as kicks out against the force field, struggling towards Casha*
I'm sorry! Please! Just -
*Her words cut off. She wasn't allowed to tell others to kill her*
I know. *Kisses him lightly* That might be because I fancied you a bit.
*pauses, blinking* Did you really?
Lorcan: BULLSHIT!!!! You're letting a spiteful teenager tell you to kill a pregnant girl. A girl who's sick. A girl who you dare fucking bond with. You're more than a god damn puppet Judhipor, you're the person who brought me back from the dead. No puppet on a string does that.
*He clenches his fists tighter, the sound of his knuckle cracking can be heard under his hardening silver. The baby increases the pressure of the forcefield to keep a safe distance between the threat and it's mother.*
Casha: I'm sorry what happened to Alexis but she should know, you can't help who you fall for and if I could go back, I would have stayed on my own.
Lorcan: But I was gone for a year and a fucking half, she should have realised I wasn't coming back. And now she suddenly gets a say in my fucking life!
*He goes to grab his hair, as he always does when stressed out or frustrated but he doesn't, instead his silver hardens up more.*
Zanida: Why? I want to know why.
I dedicate this page to Astrid, my soon to be wife.
-Loki
*Valencia flips out a second sword, and shoves Zanida away* You know damn well why, Zanida. Asgardians no longer have business with the two. You have caused them enough pain for a lifetime, and you have effectively lost all respect that could have ever been mustered by them. *She grabs Zanida's arm, and taps a few buttons on her arm band, and the two appear in Moscow, a week in the future* *Valencia takes a step back* Do not ask me again, Zanida.
-
*Adra nods, blushing* Yeah, I did. You were adorable in your own way. Especially when you did this... *She puts her arms around his neck* To me... I could have kissed you.
I can't actually control it Lorcan! I've tried! I have to... When I saved you, that was before my true name was released into the public.
*She winces and stops struggling. Her eyes are sad and confused*
Lorcan... I'm really sorry. I can't not do this.
*She lets out a energy wave from her chest before collapsing, all her magic gone*
Zanida: *looks petrified, never having been to Russia* Okay, I got it. Just take me back to Blogland, please. I just want to go back...and I'm not Asgardian, I'm a Frost Giant.
Then you'll enjoy the cold.
*Valencia presses a few more buttons, and travels back to moments after she left with Zanida**Resolves to set up post just outside the compound. They're gone for now. I'll keep watch in case they come back.
*The last part was to Alastair, by the way*
Backity!
At least you remembered the salt Amy, Dugglyn would be proud.
Yes, you are right! I'm proud!
Except for the fact you ate my face! -_-
*puts salt and pepper and sugar on Amy's face*
*glomps it*
*squirts her with nasty smelly perfume*
That perfume will not come off for 1 year. Nothing can get it off!!!
Heheheheheheheheehehe.....!!!
*Lorcan lets his silver fade and step s outside the forcefield as he looks at Judhipor with broken hearted eyes, tears brimming the brightly silver coloured orbs.*
Lorcan: Look at her. She's doing everything she can to keep our baby alive. She can barely eat. It's hard to find medicine that sits right with her. She has to cut herself every two weeks just to relieve some of the pressure and pain, even while carrying the baby.
She has me to protect them, always. But she needs someone else. They need someone else. She's been on her own since she was 11.
You need to fight this. Not just for you Judhi or even for me, Jesus fuck me! I don't want it. But she needs it from you and that baby needs it.
That's all I ask Judhi. That's all I ask.
Zanida: *looks around, honest to god petrified, and just finds a place, sitting in tears*
*appears by Valencia* What the hell did you do to my sister?! Bring her back, Valencia.
Brb!
((I do want Zanida back, tonight. I can't send anyone to actually get her....-Zaf))
*Valencia begins to take a number of steps from the compound, walking away from Loki*
I can't... Lorcan... I'm sorry, but I tried...
*She pushes herself up and falls back to the ground. She weakened herself so she can't do anything*
You don't understand... I'm fighting as much as I can...
*Her eyes roll back into her head and her head, which had been raised slightly to speak to Lorcan, hits the ground with a thunk*
For gods sake, what do you want from me if you give me my sister back?! That isn't even right, she's not even against Adra or anyone, she just wants to go back to Asgard honestly.
*Lorcan shakes his head as he makes chains from his silver, double hardening it and chaining Judhipor to the wall before he blindfolds her. He knows how dangerous that glare was.*
Lorcan: You can let it down baby.
*Casha stands up and the forcefield evaporates. She is shivering with the fear. Lorcan holds her tightly as he goes to settle her down, covering her with a blanket and making sure her pillow is as plumped up as it can be.
He then sits on the log and looks back at Casha, her cheeks were stained from all the crying she has been doing.*
Lorcan: Alexis, what do you want from me?
((*rides in on a rainbow pony*))
*Valencia continues to walk* I'll bring her back if you swear to leave Alastair and Adra alone, Loki.
*There was a war in her head. Rose was struggling for power, Judhipor sat aside, all fight in her lost. Then there was Sil. She was stronger than Rose by far, and not as struck by grief. She was winning. Was was going to win*
I'm back!
(@Dugglyn: What does the perfume smell like?)
Why would I...fine I swear I'll leave the lovebirds alone. Now get my sister back before we have the armageddon.
Zanida: *looks around, not even understanding what people are saying, and just walks somewhere remote, hoping maybe she'll find her way home*
Alexis: To make you suffer. To make you feel the pain I feel.
*a bright smile spreads across his face, and he kisses her lightly* Remind me, dearest, when did I do that?
Lorcan: Knowing how much I've hurt you, knowing that I've turned you into... this! That's painful. But using my friends to try and kill my girl and child, that's suffering.
Alexis, I'll come back to you, we can start over. If it'll make you happy again, I will do it.
*Her head snaps up and tilts from one angle to another, trying to dislodge the blindfold. She pulls at her chains, cursing*
Let me go!
Alexis: Can I trust you? How can I...you...left...and...this...
*Valencia disappears, then reappears again with Zanida* There you go, Loki. Leave, now.
-
*Adra thinks for a moment* I believe when we were beneath that Church... Was it a church? We were underground...
Zanida: *punched Valencia across the jaw* Touch me again, I burn you.
*Valencia just laughs* Fair enough... *Sits on a log*
Zanida: All I bloody want is to be healed. I want to go home to Asgard.
*Lorcan growls as he takes a breath. The tears running down his face.*
Lorcan: Shut up! I don't think you're in any position to give demands any more puppet.
You know you can always trust me. And you know that I will anything for you and if it means coming back to you, I will do it
*Valencia sighs* I'll call you when they decide to talk.
Alexis: Fine.
*She rattles her chains more, screaming and cursing and snarling*
LET ME OUT! I SAVED YOU!
*She strains against her chains, trying everything to get put of them*
(OH my gosh i just watched Thor 2 and OMG THAT ENDING DOE.
*no spoilers in case anyone else has yet to see it
but holy shit)
Zanida: Thank you! *storms off back to the house*
Touch her again, I'll kill you.
It was indeed a church. Comparatively small, albeit old. I've been there only once since then, if memory serves. But back then, I spent most of my time attempting to terrorize you...
Lorcan: Yeah, you fucking saved me. Round of applause but now because you're controlled by some poxy god, you've tried to kill my pregnant girlfriend at least 3 times.
*Valencia neglects from looking at Loki, and instead begins to sharpen her sword*
-
I remember. I also remember the first time we met... If I recall, you stabbed me with a rock. *Forms a small smile* And I lost an arm and a leg. Though the latter was not of your fault.
Sp? You think it's my fault I'm being controlled? If you want someone to kill, he's already dead. I killed him. He spread my name around. So if you think that I actually wanted to kill her, I don't.
*She pushes against the wall with all her force, but nothing seems to give. She has an idea. She rubs her face against the wall and pulls the blindfold down*
Thank God.
