Nemesis and Hurricane's Ideal World: Session 2

[idolpro]

[The sky above is a deep, unnatural crimson, filled with roiling clouds and creatures that are a sickly oil-slick black. They writhe and wriggle like something out of a Lovecraftian nightmare; they have entirely too many eyes, and entirely too many wings, and when they open their mouths, they have entirely too many teeth]

[Below them, the city of Tokyo is half-shattered; above the rooftops, mechanized suits the size of people hover in the air, darting in out of the chaos, laser blasts and explosions and wickedly sharp blades fighting tirelessly against the endless onslaught]

[Until finally, the last creature falls]

[All at once, civilians flood the streets of the city; the lights come on in all the buildings, which somehow have become whole again, safe and unharmed. A cheer goes up from the crowd. Overhead, a stunning fireworks display paints the night with light and color]

[And they all lived happily ever after]

[The end]

[Pity. This would be a quite wonderful place to wander and sit and dream, under almost any circumstances but these.]

It's such a shame we can't enjoy this, don't you think?

[ A chuckle. ]

I'm sure they feel the same way.

[ And, since her aibou worked, flexing Juniper Tree on — pale bark sheathing his skin all over, mottled here and there with green or brown. ]

But if you'll pick a direction, I can get us there faster, and you can just enjoy the ride.

[She's there a moment later, switching into Henshin and drawing her rapier.]

Well, now that I've thoroughly ruined the mood... how about we start with the statue? That should be fairly straightforward, and mayhap it will give us some idea what to expect from the rest of this place.

[The path is open!]

Works for me.

[ A tiny bit amused, still. You didn't ruin anything, Ali. ] [ And also hey! There sure is a suspicious WIND picking up all around them, full of leaves, and there we go, a larger leaf that he hops onto easily. ]

Should've also asked if you're okay with being carried.

[wait what is happening]

Leaves, Lupine, really...?

[Yes, it sounds fairly composed, please ignore the bit where it was preceded by:

[1. A slightly undignified yelp;
[2. Raising her arms to protect her eyes because why are there leaves, what is this;
[3. Stumbling;
[and 4. Coloring, because she is far better with being carried when warned first.

[Angelo just turns into a porxie. Angelo is a cheat.]

[ Steadying her gently! ]

It's called Nightingale. We can, uh. Ride the wind. But we can only bring what we can carry.

Or who.
