[It is cold, but...as much as it rattles her, Pilouette knows it's true. They're in a warzone, after all. Of course people are going to kill or be killed all around her. The least she can do is try to deal with it. If she's going to be of any use at all, she can't be freaking out all the time. It still takes her a moment to tear her eyes away from the corpse.]

I-I know. I've just never seen someone die before. It's... [Frightening. Terrifying. Horrible.] ...weird.

[With that, she begins to walk as well, following behind and keeping her eyes down on Firo's heels; even if she's trying to get used to it...she really doesn't want to look at the corpses that are stacked around the city.]

[personal profile] foundafamily 2014-09-25 01:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh.

[Of course she hasn't seen someone die before; sometimes Firo forgets that that's not exactly a common experience. He inclines his head in a slight nod to acknowledge that, yeah, it is a bit weird. To one moment have someone before you full of life and fight and the next moment be limp can't b anything but weird.]

Just think: at least they're not friends a' yours.

[Now he's trying to sound cavalier. Seeing any bodies from kids is going to hurt, much as he'd like to deny it.]
ribbonbon: (Hmph)

[personal profile] ribbonbon 2014-09-26 09:36 am (UTC)(link)
Y-Yeah. That's right.

[But her friends, among other people, could end up joining the dead and that scares her, even if they can be brought back...provided that bomb can be stopped. She takes a breath, inhaling the smell of blood and bodies. It somehow seems even worse than before.]

It doesn't seem like anyone is too close by... [Not out in the open, anyway.] I guess most people are nearer to the center.

[He nods, glancing around their surroundings to verify her remark. It's emptier than he would have thought; it's good that they don't have to run too much just yet, but it's a little eerie too.]

Yeah. We musta' lost time when we were hidin' from those jerks.

If people are already that far in, it might be a good thing. We can come up from behind in the fightin' and take some out that way.
ribbonbon: (unsure)

[personal profile] ribbonbon 2014-09-28 08:34 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. I guess it's better for us to be sneakier about it than going after them head on. Still, everyone's probably going to like, spread out before too long... [Not that she could tell how long that would take. Really, there's nothing that's for sure here. She finally forces herself to look up. She can't keep her eyes on the ground forever, after all.] S-Since you're in front, I'll try and keep an eye on things back here, just so no one like, takes us by surprise...

[Hopefully, she can keep herself together enough to do it.]

[His shoulders slump a little when she points that out.

Yeah, you're probably right about that... But maybe we'll at least find someone.

[He glances over his shoulder at her and smiles.]

Thanks. Just yell if you see anything.

[Probably not the best idea, Firo...]
ribbonbon: (Hmph)

[personal profile] ribbonbon 2014-09-29 09:04 am (UTC)(link)
[She nods to him in response and finds herself glancing over her shoulder as they walk. However, this also means looking at everything else around them. When she speaks her voice comes out as a whisper, as she remembers the invasion in their own enclosure.]

I wonder if this could have been Luceti, too...

[He flinches; that's something he never wants to think about. Having to go to war is bad enough; having it come to your door is even worse.]

You think?

...I wonder how long they fought before they wound up like this.

[He waves his arm to gesture to the rubble around them.]
ribbonbon: (Whoah!)

[personal profile] ribbonbon 2014-10-01 09:02 am (UTC)(link)
Who knows?

[All she can tell, if the screams the previous night were any indication, is that any battle that could have taken place had already been lost long before they had arrived. The idea that none of them could have likely saved anyone inside the city just makes the entire situation worse.

Pilouette's head suddenly jerks up as she's pulled out of her thoughts by the sound of rapidly approaching footsteps.]


H-Hey, do you hear that?!
foundafamily: (Default)

[personal profile] foundafamily 2014-10-01 06:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[He turns to follow her motion, his heart suddenly pounding harder than he ever thought it could.]

Shit--! Where do we go?

[He backs flat against a nearby wall and grabs for her shoulder to make her do the same. If she has a better idea, though, he'll gladly follow.]
ribbonbon: (Scared)

[personal profile] ribbonbon 2014-10-03 08:53 am (UTC)(link)
[She presses herself up against the wall as well, her body tensing. The footsteps approach and a cultist comes running past, seemingly not even seeing them, passing them right by. Pilouette exhales before whispering to Firo.]

W-Wherever that guy was going, it must be getting crazy if he didn't even notice us. Maybe we should duck into somewhere...I-I think I hear more of them...!
foundafamily: (Default)

[personal profile] foundafamily 2014-10-05 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[Did that really just happen? Even though that's the very outcome he was hoping for, Firo's stunned. He makes a mental note to watch out better when he's the one running off to a fight.]

Yeah, yeah. Damn it, do you see a good place nearby?

[He steps back from the wall to look around for a building that won't be too interesting to their enemies.]
ribbonbon: (Scared)

[personal profile] ribbonbon 2014-10-06 08:29 am (UTC)(link)
[Her relief at being passed by is short lived as she frantically skims over the various buildings around them. None of them seem any better than any of the others. Still they need to get to cover and quick. She starts getting jittery and starts moving towards the nearest building.]

Let's just try to like, get out of sight...!
foundafamily: (Default)

[personal profile] foundafamily 2014-10-06 02:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[He nods and quickly moves to follow her. It's a struggle to keep his voice down, but he tries anyway.]

Good idea. But listen before you go inside--there might be somethin' in there.
ribbonbon: (unsure)

[personal profile] ribbonbon 2014-10-07 08:32 am (UTC)(link)
[She nods in return and puts her ear to the door, listening intently. However, she only listens for a few brief moments before opening the door. She looks back over her shoulder as starts to creep inside, hoping this was the right thing to do.]

I...I think it's okay. Come on!
foundafamily: (Default)

[personal profile] foundafamily 2014-10-08 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
[Firo nods and follows. He wouldn't be able to tell her if it's the right thing, but he couldn't tell her anything better.

He eases the door shut behind them and looks at her.
]

We should probably check out the rest a' this place. Keep your eyes open.
ribbonbon: (Sadness)

[personal profile] ribbonbon 2014-10-10 09:47 am (UTC)(link)
Right...

[She nervously bites her lip as she begins to make her way a little further into the building to look around. She feels sort of bad...she was the one who said they should stick to the streets.]

I guess staying on the streets wasn't such a good idea, after all...
foundafamily: (Default)

[personal profile] foundafamily 2014-10-11 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
What're you talkin' about?

[He pauses to peek through a doorway on the far wall of the room. Thankfully, it's empty.]

It's the only way to get anywhere. Better to try that than get stuck somewhere. We just had bad timin'.
