Mass-Interaction in Desset

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

Who: Draftees.
What: FIGHT FOR YOUR LIVES... or wander around. idfk.
When: Anytime this week.
Where: Desset City
Summary: Mass-interaction post in the city for the poor souls who've been drafted.
Rating: Anywhere from PG to R.

[With permission from the mods, I've gone ahead and put up this... post... for everyone who was interested in actually threading in the city. You can either prose or write in first-person; totally up to you. Actually threading a fight with the Third Party is also optional. Just keep in mind that if you do you'll have to be the one controlling the enemy's actions and whatnot. If you're not sure how to go about that, just remember the information they've provided us with. They're not very tough, but if you still need an idea with how they fight, just read up on this a bit. Please do remember that the enemies we're fighting are weaker compared to the ones previously fought, though. |D;

But yeah. Mass-interaction, guys. YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO.]

[Hey, hey. Look. A certain someone's going to turn the corner and end up running into Ted. She blinks, staring at Ted momentarily before registering that it's... well, just Ted.]

... Ted? [She wasn't expecting to run into YOU!!!1]

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

... No...el?

[... Wait a minute.]

You were drafted too?

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

I-I was going to ask you the same thing. [How did she miss Ted's name?]

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

Not by my own will, at least. They pretty much just listed me there.

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

What? ... And you didn't even sign up for it?

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

Not at all. I'm not interested in dealing with their battles.

... Did you?

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

... I did.

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

[He looks at her curiously for a moment at that. He wasn't very familiar with her fighting style to gauge her combat ability, but she didn't strike him as the type to join a war like this.] Why?

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

They said that if nothing was done about them, we'd be attacked again. S-So I wanted to help protect the village.

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

[... He honestly didn't believe the Malnosso, but then, Noel was a lot nicer than him when it comes to these things.]

You're a good kid.

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

[... ;;]

Still, they really shouldn't have sent people who didn't want to go. [...] Have you been okay out here, Ted? [She... actually doesn't see Ted as the fighting type.]

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

I've.. had some encounters. [Because that stupid owl dropped him from who knows how high in the middle of a group of enemies. Yeah, fun times.] It's nothing I couldn't handle though.

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

You mean... oh. [Ffff. Poor guy.] I haven't ran into anyone for a while now. In this area, at least.

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

[He can canonly survive a fall from who knows how high, definitely higher than normal. He's a cockroach, Noel.] Want to come with me for a while then? It's better than staying alone.

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

Sure. [In a place like this, it really isn't good to be all alone.]

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

All right.

How long have you been looking around? [He says this as he moves the flashlight about, trying to see their surroundings better.]

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

[She looks at the flashlight curiously, but says nothing.]

Um... for a while. I-I'm not exactly sure how long, but if I had to guess it's probably been a few hours now.

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

Time is pretty hard to tell in the dark, huh? [He kind of wished it wasn't always so dark here, but then it wasn't like something to complain about.]

We might need to be careful though... [He pauses at that statement, looking back.]

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

[...]

Should we turn the flashlight off?

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

[He nods...] Might be the best idea for now.

[... and turns it off.]

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

[It's hard to see and a bit foreboding, but it's better than attracting the wrong individuals.

... If only said individuals hadn't noticed the light. Hey, Ted? Something's coming up from behind with a sword and going in to give you a fatal blow to the head! WHAT DO YOU DO!?!?]

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

[Well, either running or flying, the sound catches his attention, and he quickly turns around with one hand already pulling an arrow from the quiver, aiming quickly at the faint silhouette of the man swinging at him.]

NOEL! Get down!

[As he says this, he forcefully bumps into her so they'd both avoid getting slashed in half, aiming well enough so that the moment he releases his arrow, it shoots through the man's throat.]

[Noel hits the ground, turning just in time to see the man fall over and writhe in pain. She looks ahead, past the fallen enemy, to see a trio approaching; two men and a woman. One of the males wields a scimitar while the other two carry identical swords.]

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

[She already recognizes them as the Third Party, so she quickly pulls herself to her feet and summons Bolverk for what felt like the fiftieth time that week. She eyes Ted briefly, making sure that the man with an arrow currently lodged in his throat didn't in fact injure him. Relieved to see nothing, she quickly looks back, preparing to dive in to attack when the opportune moment arises.]

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

[His field of vision was limited in the dark, and he could only make out an outline of the enemies as they approached. Knowing that they were basically screwed unless the act first, he eyes Noel a little hesitantly, though only for a brief moment, just to ascertain she can defend herself.]

Get them before they get any closer. [He says this very quickly before pulling out another arrow, aiming as best as he could in the dark before shooting that one as well.]
