CAPTIVE GAME: LiliS & Eichi
[ You're in a room with no doors or windows, about the size of a living room. Depending on how many of you are around, it might feel a little cramped. The walls and ceiling are draped with fabrics, the floor covered in colorful rugs and piles of sitting cushions, but you can see the dirt ground and untreated wood walls peeking through in places. There are three or so oil lamps to light the space, each placed on a stump-like round little table that isn't big enough to hold much else. It's kind of cozy, but...
Most of the cushions are embroidered with an array of colors, but there's one pillow in particular, set aside from the rest, that's one solid color – Iris's position color. ]

no subject
He can't speak, with the barrel of the gun between his sharp teeth, but he isn't sure... he would speak much. The arm near his chopped shoulder falls limp, his other arm twisted painfully as he's taken down and one of his wings falling off of him completely.
He doesn't fight any more, brows knitted as he tries to AT LEAST look angry as tears spill down his cheeks.]
no subject
[ should he really be complaining about that??? One of Coriander's many talents along with 'almost dying' is 'ignoring the pain'. Which does not help him not feel it but it does allow him to give one liners after being shot. ]
no subject
flame piecegun, all of that is just efficiency, soldiers moving swiftly into place, exactly as she would expect.Amaranth straightens from her stance. ]
Keep him secured, please. [ Her voice is gentler when she speaks to Edelweiss and Cypress. ] I'll start seeing to Coriander.
[ Then, sharp again as she addresses Eichi— ] He was right after all, it seems. We should have just broken your wrists.
[ ...and time to rush to Coriander's side to take out the medical kit she now always carries with her, in case of Coriander Emergencies. ]
no subject
She doesn't pull the axe free—it keeps him pinned and... well, it'd be messier otherwise. ]
...you...
[ Listen once the dumb boy is taken care of she'll be impressed with Eichi or something. Maybe not quite impressed, but close. ]
no subject
amaranth told them to keep him there, so she stays, easing up just slightly on the gun so it's not shoved into the back of his mouth anymore. ]
no subject
He's just not going to move right now. Is it shock???? He's not sure because if it were he shouldn't hurt so much, right? His tail moves slightly, looking like a silver snake on the ground, and the single wing attacked to his back twitches, but other than that he just goes boneless. He can't really surrender verbally!!!
He WILL try to push the barrel out of his mouth with his weird silver forked tongue though.]
no subject
(also, taking the gun entirely out of his hand, you lost your gun privileges sir) ]
no subject
[ can one sound so disappointed with being shot as this guy ]
no subject
[It's REAL HARD. TALKING AS HE IS.]
I'm not about to just. Sit here and take whatever you were planning on dishing out.
no subject
We were planning to create the illusory smell of onions.
Make no mistake that you chose this for yourself. By your own hand on the gun.
no subject
And so if you were held captive during a game, you would sit there patiently and await your opponent's first move? I can't even use my powers.
And before you ask- yes, I do think it's stupid to trust each other.
no subject
[ staring at him, closely. At his mouth. ]
I see. You're not a person after all...
no subject
Just because I'm not 'human' anymore doesn't mean I'm not a 'person'.
no subject
A person shouldn't-- wouldn't... do something like that. At least, I don't think so.
...
They shouldn't.
no subject
[The... tears start anew as he grits his teeth and tries to turn his head so she DOESN'T SEE.]
Next time you are captive, sit there and take whatever your captors want to give you, then! Prove your humanity!

She... kind of... gets it... not the last part, but the first. ]
I suppose this was to be expected.
no subject
[Even if that someone has an axe. In his body. And dropped one of his wings.]
no subject
[ Not like that's gonna help, though. Whenever it seems like there's a good moment, she's going to pry her axe free of his body, though she doesn't turn away from the inevitable blood that comes with it. ]
no subject
He does not remain conscious for even a SECOND LONGER, because. Most of the adrenaline is gone so everything rushes to him so hard.]
no subject
A short sigh, then she drops to one knee and begins working to staunch that blood as well. ]
That was well done. I hadn't realized I was no longer the only trained combatant here.
Fetch me some of that fabric, though, please? [ gesturing her chin towards the various drapery ]
We might as well try to keep this mess from getting any worse.

I told you clearly: I had no desire to hurt one of Ruby's children. And then you hurt one of mine.
Trust a mother's devotion, even if you are too lonely a creature to trust that another might just be kind.
no subject
no subject
[ that, at least, does sound genuine ]
But with or without that love, the truth of your situation was there, and you could have learned it easily.
Instead, you shot the very person who gave you the most. Perhaps you might consider a lesson in that.
no subject
All I hear is some self-righteous mumbling. If you could stop talking, please, it's distracting me from the pain, and I'm really trying to soak it in.
