Action - 006
[...Well, this was a little unexpected. Kazuma finds himself standing at the center of the village plaza later on this evening, pretty much having the same pose as the icon, although in new feather garbs. He looks at his surroundings. There was something vaguely familiar about the village, and this pain behind his back...like a dream he once had long ago. Slowly it comes back to him.
He chuckles quietly upon realizing where he was. This was a joke, right? Oh, but of course Luceti was always good at causing interruptions for everyone wasn't it? He sighs, no point in questioning it. He should just go and find his clothes.
As he walks to the clothing store, he realized how quiet it was. Not that the village was quiet in the least, it's his head. It was almost unsettling how quiet it was in his head right now. Terumi would surely have a say or two right now but...nothing.]
[Kazuma can be found at the clothing store after his return wearing not his old clothes, but the uniform Hazama wore in the NOL. Odd. Yet Kazuma didn't find anything strange about it at all, like this was totally what he has always worn. What he found strange was that he couldn't find his journal. Didn't new feathers usually get them upon arrival?
He'll be checking the various stores, the item and weapon shops afterwards for his things before concluding his journal wasn't here. It couldn't still be at the old House was it? Ugh, he's not sure if he wanted a reunion, but the journal is kind of vital in this place. Maybe he can sneak into House 48 without anyone noticing. So he can be seen walking down the path towards House 48 from the plaza.
Once there, he'll be as quiet as possible getting in and getting out with his things...damn that front door sure makes an awful loud creaking sound and this house--this house stinks like cat. Ugh.]
[OOC: The Malnosso have messed around with Kazuma's head and a few other things, so this is who he believes to be right now. Though he doesn't share the headspace with Terumi in Luceti. This is lasting for a week.]
[Action]
[Change of plan. Walk with no direction. It's stupid, but she doesn't want to risk him knowing where she lives. Sorry, Sol. Attempting to pick up the pace, she sets her sights again on the horizon--] Just...
[...but jerking around so much is taking its toll. And in a small bout of dizziness, she finds herself again stumbling off the trail and into a tree. Or rather, she falls on it instead of slamming right into it.]
[Action]
Hands in his pockets, he walks over to Noel when she falls onto the tree.]
You're making real progress, Miss Noel. At least it's not the ground this time.
[Action]
...
And so, grasping still to the tree, she makes no response as he draws nearer to her. Please, just get the hint and actually leave.]
[Action]
[His tone changed to being more serious now] I don't have my journal and neither do you. So do me a favor and behave. [He reaches for her arm] All right?
[Action]
But once she feels a familiar hand grab her arm, instinct snaps her out of whatever rut she fell into just then and Noel squeaks, holding the tree still for support and whipping around.] Wh... What are you doing!?
[Action]
Helping. How many times do I need to say that to you?
[Action]
This was exactly what she was expecting. When it comes to Terumi, there's a certain logic that is lost on Noel. All she knows is that he's grabbing at her and pulling her somewhere and she's not sure where he wants to take her, but all of this has seemingly gone from bad to worse, considering Kazuma is way stronger and can easily pry her away from the tree. Like now.
In which case, she'll scream. Because the last time something like this happened in Luceti, it didn't end well.]
No, let go! Let me go! [COMMENCE STRUGGLE.] I said let me go!
[Action]
I suggest you stop squirming. We don't want to have any accidents now do we? It's a real mess to clean up.
[He REALLY should just tell her the truth, but no. He was clearly enjoying this.]
I'm just taking you to stay with a few old...hm, housemates, yes. All right?
[Action]
How could he tell her to stay still when he was very obviously kidnapping her?
Noel's eyes were wide, darting around in all corners, as if hoping something would suddenly catch him doing this and come in to stop all of it. But at this hour, there would be no one, and he would continue to move her against her will.
Again.
Just like two years ago, it was happening all over again and there was nothing she could do about it.]
[Action]
Looks like we'll have to do this the hard way. [It's all your fault for this, Noel. His hand that was over her mouth moves to grab a fistful of her hair as he grabs her from behind the head. He then moves her forward and strikes her head right into the tree, hard enough to force her unconcious]
[Action]
A lot of things flash through her mind there. Noel's sure it's happening again. All of it. Nami's birthday party---that'll be the last time she'll see her again in... she doesn't know when. It'll be the last time she'll see anyone.
She won't be able to say goodbye to Luke.
Ragna would be none the wiser.
No one would know where she went. Unlike before, she'll simply disappear from any communication. No one is witnessing this. No one can see them. He's going to take her away again.
When her head meets wood, there's a flash of white and then... nothing. Her body goes limp.
...sorry, everyone. Maybe she should have stayed longer...]
[Action]
You just had to be a real pain. All your fault, really. [He'll hoist her up and onto his back and starts moving his way to the house. It'll probably take him about a half hour or so to get to the house. Once he's there, he's stopped by a few of his housemates that were still up. He really didn't feel like explaining and just told them to shut up and either help him or let him through.
He'll head for his old room and place her onto his bed. He then sits himself down in the empty chair at the desk to rest for a moment. He was coming here for another reason right? Oh yea, his journal...or journals.
Well, that won't take too long, and he'll probably go talk to the others about taking care of Noel for the time being. So when Noel becomes conscious again, he'll likely not be in the room at the moment, but can probably hear voices.]
[Action]
All this, however, topped with the fact that she was kind of wasted/getting ill is enough to keep her down for a while longer.
...that is, until her ears begin to pick up something. A semblance of a voice or two. Noel finally twitches, and slowly but surely her eyes flutter open, the dim room revealing itself to her.
It's strange. Though she needs more time to fully regain consciousness, it feels oddly... calm.
Where is she?]
[Action] slides on in here
It's faint and distant from where he's standing but he can hear someone breathing lightly. Plus there's a different scent mixed in with Kazuma's.
Yes, it sounds creepy in a way but hey, it works when you're blind and have to rely on your other senses.
Slowly, he starts to feel his way around the room, letting his hands trace along different surfaces and ends up grabbing the top of the chair Kazuma had been sitting in, then! ...He trips on the leg of it. It goes toppling down with him and he lands on the floor with a loud thud with it on top of him.] Ow...
[So much for a quiet entry]
[Action] well hello there
[The girl quickly regrets her hasty actions and whimpers, recoiling in pain and holding the throbbing pain that felt as though it were threatening to rip through her skull.
What... happened?
At the very least, she manages to take a peek at the other stranger. To her surprise, it wasn't whom she was quite expecting.]
Who... Who are you?
[Action] how are you this fine day?
He struggles for a moment, trying to turn himself on his back and get the chair off him at the same time but finally manages to get himself sitting up right with the chair laying next to him.
Flustering a bit] M-My name is Seto. I'm really sorry if I woke you up.
[Action] okay aside from GETTING MY HEAD SMASHED IN A TREE how about you
Her hands slide down her face and rest by her side. Noel's head continues to throb, but for now she would deal with it the way it was.]
Seto... right? What's going on? Why am I here?
[Action] owy ow! not too bad from over here, just sleepy beepy ;O; sorry for the lateness btw ahhh
Um well... Kazuma said he found you unconscious under a tree so he carried you back here to take care of you. [Though he isn't sure why Kazuma didn't just take her to a clinic but oh well! Seto can be a good nurse and take care of her yes yes] Are you feeling okay now?
