A Game of Thorns


Who: Residents of House 6 and anyone who wants to find an excuse to be involved 8|a
What: Inconvenient Fairy Tale Side Effect #19
When: 5th September
Where: House 6
Summary: On day three of The Sleeping Navigator, the thorns finally arrive. Hope the house occupants didn't want to leave any time soon...
Rating: PG for swearing and violence against plant life?



[So thorns aren't really meant to grow that fast, right? It takes all of fifteen seconds for them to surge from the grass surrounds and wrap the house with a thick and impenetrable wall of spiky death.

...well, spiky inconvenience, anyway. Watch out, because they might make a few attempts to sneak into the house, too, and that could really mess with the paintwork. Violence against thorns is encouraged, but be careful: try cutting the main wall down and they'll spring back twice as thick a moment later, and those thorns are painful.

Meanwhile, Nami's dreaming of the best mikan cocktail ever made served up on top of her own personal mountain of gold. What's that? Wake up, now? Please.]


((Whether you're a resident of house 6, a visitor at house 6, or just passing by and want to take pictures, this log is open to you. |D))

[And now they're pressing against the window as they rapidly cover it up.

Katara reaches out a hand to touch the glass...]
deathsdoctor: (Neutral | huh... what.. yeah)

[personal profile] deathsdoctor 2012-09-08 07:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Yep. Those thorns are now scouring the glass. O.O]


Katara, you'd better step away. That window might not last much longer. [Stating the very obvious but -crackcrack- maybe he can be excused?] We should move her to a safer room, anyway.

markofthebrave: (Uncertain Light)

[personal profile] markofthebrave 2012-09-08 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[...you know what? This is creepy, that's what. Katara takes a step away from the glass.]

It looks like they're trying to get inside.

[She unfastens her waterskin.]
deathsdoctor: (Annoyed | tch)

[personal profile] deathsdoctor 2012-09-08 08:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I think they are.

[Backstep, backstep. Picking up sword now and pressing thumb against the tsuba and ka-chink. Stepping forward to Nami's beside.]

Let's take her and go. This is no longer a good place for her.
markofthebrave: (Just a Small Demonstration)

[personal profile] markofthebrave 2012-09-09 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
[Frowning, Katara streams water from her waterskin reinforces the window with a solid layer of ice.

Try and get through THAT.]


Yeah, let's take her into the living room.
deathsdoctor: (Neutral | That far off horizon)

[personal profile] deathsdoctor 2012-09-09 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
Agreed.

[That'll hold them. For now.

But in the meantime, Law is just going to slide his sword through a loop sewn on the back of his shirt for sword carrying purposes, and then gather the sleeping navigator in his arms. If there are IVs or anything else attached to Nami? He'll let Katara take care of them.

You're not going to snuggle into him while he carries you out, Nami, right? That might make things a touch ackward.]
markofthebrave: (<_<)

[personal profile] markofthebrave 2012-09-09 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
[And Katara follows along, taking care of the IVs.]
deathsdoctor: (Neutral and Serious | Pensive)

[personal profile] deathsdoctor 2012-09-09 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Ok, we can handle that. Moving to the couch to put Nami down.]

Katara, please shut and ice over that door as well. [Let's create an extra barrier here.] It'll give us some time to figure out what the hell is going on here.
markofthebrave: (If It Had to Perish Twice | Ice Ice Baby)

[personal profile] markofthebrave 2012-09-09 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
[After rearranging the IVs, she nods.]

I'll take care of it.

[And she moves to do so.]
deathsdoctor: (Curious + Neutral | Pondering this)

[personal profile] deathsdoctor 2012-09-09 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks.

[Now how much time have they bought?

Excuse him, thinking out loud here.]


Now, this is obviously the work of the Malnosso. Almost certainly connected to Miss Nami's unnatural sleep. But thorns? Why thorns of all things? I don't get it.

[Really someone needs to start reading bedtime stories to Elicia and then he would.]
markofthebrave: (Hmmm | This Calls for Concern)

[personal profile] markofthebrave 2012-09-09 04:44 am (UTC)(link)
[Katara sighs at the door and turns back to Nami.]

It reminds me of one of the experiments.
markofthebrave: (Concerned | Uncertain)

[personal profile] markofthebrave 2012-09-09 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
The one based around all those stories from Earth.

[She frowned, thinking of Hiccup and Zuko.]

Remember when the Item Shop was overgrown with thorns for a little while? It didn't last too long, but...

[It was most of that day.]
deathsdoctor: (Neutral | Thoughtful)

[personal profile] deathsdoctor 2012-09-09 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
... yes. I do. [He had saw that when he encountered Itachi at the fountain.]

So all of this is based on a story. Alright. Perhaps we should ask around to see if anyone knows the solution to a tale such as this.
markofthebrave: (<_<)

[personal profile] markofthebrave 2012-09-09 03:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[That's not a bad idea.]

Do you have your journal with you?
deathsdoctor: (Neutral | contemplative)

[personal profile] deathsdoctor 2012-09-09 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Aa, yes. [He'll retrieve it from a belt pouch.] Right here.
markofthebrave: (<_<)

[personal profile] markofthebrave 2012-09-10 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[And then this happened]
