chaincutter: (I.... dunfeelsogood)

005 - [voice/action ]

[Today there is a Liberator dragging his sorry self back into the village, and cursing the Malnosso for dumping him on the opposite end of the village from his destination. He doesn't look too bad for returning from a kidnapping, although he's bruised his lip somehow and his white shirt appears to be stuck to his chest by little spots of dried blood in a peculiar pattern. He's also missing a shoe.

It's a long trudge back to community building #6 with only one boot.

It's going to be a trudge that seems even longer when he gets there to find his apartment unoccupied. What. But wait, there's a note. ...He just passed house 32 to get here. Veros, why do you do these terrible things to him? ...Aside from the obvious. He looks at the note, and then in the direction of house 32. Note, house, note, house, note, house... journal.

They were the ones that decided to move residences without him.]


I have returned. Edward, bring my shoe.

((OOC: And, back. If I still have tags, I'm getting to them now. Figured you don't need an extra post clogging your flists.))

[What. WHAT. This is unacceptable, Edward. Absolutely unacceptable. What does he keep you around for?]

...

You're sure?

[....S-sob, he's trying his best, but he can't magic a shoe out of nothing.]

I'll check the store at once! [And give you his on the spot if he doesn't find anything.]

[Good, it will save him the effort of demanding requesting to borrow it for the walk home.]

I will search here. [It better not be here. Karathos, how do you move out and take everything but a left boot? Really.]

[And Edward will be rushing his ass off around the village trying to find a damn boot for him. He wouldn't have left anything behind at the apartment - especially nothing that belonged to Sigmund - and there's jack all at any of the shops, so it's a rather dejected Edward that slinks into the apartment a short while later. HE FAILED LORD SIGMUND ;_;]

[Oh, Edward, no. Sigmund was counting on you, especially since it didn't turn up here. So now he is sitting in the living room, dejectedly studying his slightly bruised toes. He looks up when Ed slinks in. Damn. He had them all broken in and perfect and everything.]

You don't have it.

I couldn't find it, my lord...

[HE'S NOT PERFECT LIKE YOU ;_; Hastily, though, he removes his own boots, because dammit, he has to do something.]

You need not walk back to the house with nothing! And we can certainly find a replacement pair. I'll even forge you new greaves!

I am not annoyed with you, Edward. [Sounds like he's annoyed with something, though.] I am-

[-just now realizing that his shirt is stuck to him somehow. Hold the phone, peeling it away and looking down the collar to check this out. ...Oh. Scientists are weird.]

[Well that's a relief. But that blood is worrisome.]

My lord, if you're injured, we should find a healer at once.

[Holding a hand out for those shoes. Stop fussing, Ed, and toss 'em over.]

They are only pinpricks. A healer is not needed.

[Oh very well, have your shoes. A less-devoted man would call you out as the fussy Francis that you are.]

Only if you're certain. [Well, alright, there are more pressing matters at hand, but let the man get comfortable first.]

I am. All was well in my absence?

[And Ed will shuffle along after him in his bare-footed glory, carrying the lone boot. Better him than Sigmund, at least. Also: I hope you weren't expecting any peace of mind, Siggy.]

...Not at all, my lord. There's something you should know- the Dreadknight is here.

[Surely he didn't hear that correctly, because it sounded like Edward just said that the psychotic doom of all mankind was trapped here with them in this tiny little village. ... Edward just said that the psychotic doom of all mankind was trapped here in this tiny little village with them, didn't he?]

Leonid, here? When?

[Yes, yes he did. Sorry for the bad news.]

One week ago. He seems distracted by the lack of the moon god's presence, but I'm not sure of how long that will last.

[Ed, first you fail to deliver his shoe, then you manage to deliver some of the worst news of all time. You're lucky he likes you.]

Not long enough. [Walking faster now, feeling exposed.] Something will need to be done.

I... failed to defeat him myself, my lord. I wasn't strong enough.

Edward, that was [incredibly foolish] brave but unwise. He cannot be defeated [at all, apparently] in single combat.

[Edward just nods at that. He trusts Sigmund; surely his great leader will come up with the proper plan to deal with such a foul villain.

He hopes, anyway. But believing in Sigmund is kind of what he does best.]

Are you well rested? [Because first thing's first, sleeping and bathing are now happening in shifts. Not leaving this place unguarded.]

I am, my lord! I've been resting well all week, preparing for your arrival. [A pause.] But Lady Svala has been quite safe, so you don't have to worry about her either!

I must speak with her. [Like ten minutes ago.] Then we will decide on a watch. We must not let down our guard.

[He leaves the 'So while I clean these insignificant scratches up, that's up to you' implied.]
