may open log + catchall
Who: A2 (abandonware) & open (fourth wall characters welcome)
When: All throughout May!
Where: Errywhere
What: Quest pickups! Monster changes! A2 trying to figure out the purpose of a love letter!
Warnings: Some body horror (irt monster changes), A2 overall just being herself.
i. v is very very, extra-ordinary (quest - beauty underneath)
[Having avoided the greater part of the city, as much as she was able, anyway, she is nonetheless moved by a desire to do something. Anything. Culling the infected in the woods only did so much. They did not move like machines, which was of some interest. But even she could only kill for so long before boredom moved her.
The acceptance of this particular task had been by chance and Pod's suggestion, and currently, A2 is frowning down at the letter she's been given, which has the sweet smell of freshly-cut flowers. It irritates her nose, though she can recall a time where this was not the case.
She sneezes. Rubs at her nose. Then she looks up at Pod, expectant.]
Well? You got any ideas where this woman is this time?
Unknown.
Why can't he give this to her himself? What's the point of this, anyway? This is the third one this week.
[Her griping continues on into her task. Perhaps you too, have been asked to deliver all these weird, lovey-dovey letters? Or she's flagged you down with a, "Hey, you," to enlist your directional help?
Or she's just passed the letters off to you with no explanation because they bother her nose.
Despite her overall aura of disrespect, all of the letters are intact, the wax seal still in place. Huh.]
ii. there are two wolves inside of you (quest - noise complaint)
[There's a woman, slight of build, oddly-dressed at a distance, carrying two swords that look larger than her on her back, and she's banging on a resident's door like she intends to punch a hole in it.]
Hey! Roman!
[Does she know this guy? Anyway. Her voice is sharp and irritated.] I told you about this shit last night — cut it out!
[The howling coming from the second story window pauses, then begins again in earnest. A2 claps her hands over her ears, and there's something strange in her voice when she speaks up again, something low and guttural.]
That's it. Get down here right now so I can kick your ass!
[Uh-oh.]
iii. another fetch quest where the gang is given a philosophical conundrum (quest - refugee request)
[The refugees she's been saddled with this week are a kid and his baby brother, both of them hardly cut out to protect themselves, even though the boy had insisted that he needed no escort to and from his job at market. A2 had followed behind him anyway, silent and imposing, and by the time night falls on the third night, he's opened up. He chatters endlessly as they walk, and A2 listens, though it does not seem like she's doing much listening at all.
Her teeth hurt, is why.
They've hurt for days, for weeks — the boy had given her a length of licorice stick when he'd found this out, wanting to help, and she'd gnawed it down to splinters but hadn't bothered asking for another one. They hurt so much she can feel it in her temples, and so she — ever-vigilant — does not notice when the boy falls out of her field of view.
Instead she is focused on bringing a hand to her mouth, and spitting something out into her palm. The incisor, porcelain and perfect, glitters bright white in a clot of blood.]
What the—
[She studies this, quietly and dully horrified, and finally thinks to look up.]
Kid?
[Where had he gone?]
Shit. Kid!
[There's something in the distance — a cry of alarm, and this time, A2 only spits out her second lost tooth of the day out without losing her pace as she runs toward the sound.]
iv. wildcard
[A2 mostly frequents the woods, where she hunts both Cwyld-infected creatures, and (as the month progresses), wild game! Occasionally she will be seen skulking around doing odd jobs for various people (without the expectation of reward), because she's a marshmallow deep down inside. For this month she will be losing most of her normal robot teeth (???) and getting a replacement set of terrifying cat teeth. She will also be gaining a sense of hunger, increased sight, smell and (especially) hearing, and during the full moon will be especially erratic, so anyone who wants to throw down with her crazy overpowered metal ass is free to do so! If you have any questions or want to do anything else, feel free to hmu on plurk @ godsibb, or contact me via pm.]

it's fantastic!
For a moment she regards the creature before her with unnerving silence. A boy, his features somewhat familiar to her (had she met another boy like this, who looked like him?), but her mind is too fuzzy now to make the connection. She's too restless and hungry to feel anything but irritated at the intrusion.]
What do you want?
[The words come out gruff, and muddled, like she has something in her mouth and is trying to speak around it.]
no subject
Maybe I want you to pick on someone your own size.
[Carnivourous monsters... Part of him knows that they have to eat too but do they have to be so brutal about it? It makes him want to annoy this one even further. If he can waste this one's time then that's less time snacking on the innocent creatures around here. And that's a win in his book.]
no subject
[A2's gaze flickers to her meal before it disappears into the brush, before she returns her attention to the boy. Her eyes glow like strange, silver lamplight in the gloom.] Don't see anyone my own size around here.
[There is a machine floating near her, small and rectangular, and it speaks at this: the tone mechanical and without intonation.]
This is not recommended.
[A2 gives it a sharp look, then returns her attention to the boy.] Run on home, brat. Wouldn't want you to get hurt.
no subject
Instead Sora hops down from his spot on the fence he's been sitting on with gentle ease. He lands and puts his hands on his hips. For a rabbit, which is most definitely a prey animal, he's rather courageous.]
Then maybe you should leave rabbits like that alone!
[Go home, carnivore! Go home!]
no subject
The rabbits and deer and other small, scuttling creatures were no challenge to her. Not as an android, and certainly not when she was like this. But this boy might give her a worthy chase, is the thought that takes root in her mind, warped by animal instinct.
A2 straightens to her full height, lifts her chin. Underneath the pallor of moonlight, she looks strangely pale and ghostlike, a strange and unnatural shape in the dark.]
Oh yeah? [Her voice has an edge to it now, something odd. Something guttural.] Maybe I'll chase you instead.
A2— [Pod interjects, but she waves it off.]
You've got five seconds! [She calls across the clearing.] I'll even give you a head start!
no subject
Like you could ever catch me-!
[Sora knows this is dangerous. But he's too riled up from the gaze of the moon. Irritated and jumpy and wanting to run. As soon as she warns him Sora does leap backwards even though he thinks get doesn't need that five-second head start.
He's is already off with a sprint down the rickety old road.]
Catch me if you can, meat eater!
