log; and then everyone died

[subservience]

[... Jiros is actually not quite sure what to do in this situation. Or about being dead, really. His thoughts are somewhere along the lines of '... well, shit' and 'damn' and 'I guess I'm dead'.

...

Oh, and he's being attacked by frogs. That's kind of important too.

SO YEAH RUNNING LIKE THE WIND and half-looking for someone to partner up with though really how is he supposed to tell who else is dead—]

[ yw jiros.

but huh, it seems like you've dropped the stuffy attitude. even though he's kind of fighting for his life right now, he has to grin. ]

Not yet, Jiros. Goodness, don't be so polite-- [ aaaand, he flicks another pin into the air, before catching that one, too. focusing on a nearby bicycle, he imagines it careening into the bear.

.... one bicycle flying at an enraged bear, coming up. ]

[subservience]

Then I'll thank you for your assistance later—

[YEAH UM moving safely away from the path of that bicycle just in case.]

[inexistence]

[ aaaand bear is getting beaned by a bicycle. letting that pin recharge, he adds another burst of flames. ]

You'd spoil me! I'm looking forward to it-- [ aaaand gonna focus on trying to move this vending machine now. jiros go and be bait this time :T ]

[subservience]

[he is not going to punch you, so don't even hope for it

BUT FINE FINE moving in to slash at the bear please don't hit him with the vending machine—]

[inexistence]

[ he'll settle for some swearing--

whoops, it's a bit too heavy. he frowns here, and tries again, snapping at the pin. give him a minute more-- ]

[subservience]

[... NO.

come on, celandine...]

I would— [slash] —prefer it—

[dodgiiiiiing and slashing some more]

—if you were to hurry it up...!

[inexistence]

[ Celandine's brows furrow. he snaps at the pin with an audible crack. suddenly, the vending machine goes hurtling--

right at the bear. who keens when it crashes right into it, glass shattering.

... that might be a bottle of water falling out of the broken vending machine heading your way, Jiros. ]

[subservience]

[aslksda well he happened to be slashing at the bear at that time and is therefore not expecting something to be falling onto his head (also shattered glass ahem)—

... ow. SHOOTING A GLARE AT CELANDINE you're supposed to be attacking the bear, not him.]

[inexistence]

[ celandine just shoots a tight, controlled smile at Jiros.

and mimes dodging motions.












...... yeah, you should probably dodge right now, because the bear picked up a car and seems to want to smash into you-- ]

[subservience]

[alskjda okay turning his attention back to the bear and, you know, dodging. Welp, better him than his partner, he supposes...

That said, as soon as he moves out of the way, he goes in for another attack. Come on, back him up, Celandine—]

[inexistence]

[ fine fine geez he's already put some effort into it, you'd think that Jiros would be more grateful--

setting off another round of flames, he starts to lure the bear's attention away-- in a circle. essentially blasting off bits of flame successively until the bear is drawn off of Jiros, focusing its attention on him. ]

Can you climb? We need a vantage-- go for the eyes.

[subservience]

[He just nods, with a—]

Don't get hurt.

[—before moving to climb into a car. Or something.]

[inexistence]

[ and there is a car!!! it's upright and everything. have fun, yo. celandine just gives jiros another tight little smile, before dodging and rolling in order to avoid a bear smash!!!!

splintered rock cuts a line of red across his face. he tsks, and snaps another round of flames. ]

You'd better hurry-- I can't play with it forever, you know.

[subservience]

I assure you, I don't intend to lose you as a partner. I do need you.

[With that said, he's trying to move as fast as he can, because hnnnnnnnngh partner getting injured.

Going for the eyes—]

[inexistence]

About as much as I need you? [ that would be celandine pulling at telephone wiring, using that pin to help him wrap it around the bear's neck like a noose.

momentarily off-balanced, the bear tips to one side in Jiros' direction, making it easier to access. ]

[subservience]

I'm not at liberty to decide that for you.

[Welp, thanks for the opportunity, partner.

Jiros quickly jumps up, slashing at the bear's eyes.]

[inexistence]

[ and that is one blinded bear-- ]

Goodness, don't make me take the lead all the time. Out of the way~

[ he transitions smoothly, snapping his fingers for another burst of flame. ]

[subservience]

My apologies.

[He quickly moves out of the way (since, honestly, he wouldn't have put it past Celandine to commit friendly fire—).]

[inexistence]

[ -- whoever said he was friendly? but no, no friendly fire. he has nothing against damaging his partner, but there's no real need to right now. not since the bear is staggering around like a drunke, blind fuzzball. ]

Oh, looks like we're doing rather well. I'm surprised. Can you immobilize it?

[subservience]

[worst partner ever!! And yet somehow, Jiros is actually getting used to him, welp.]

You fight well.

[He tilts his head.]

I'll try.

[inexistence]

[ it's called repeated exposure, jiros. you'll become desensitized to even the worst of mankind in due time. so long as you spend time with your partner, anyway.

who is currently grinning wryly. ]

Ah, did I just get complimented? You really know how to charm a guy! [ even as he says this, he is scanning the impromptu battlefield for the location of all possible power lines. those will come in handy pretty soon. ]

[subservience]

[... yay...

He just tilts his head and gives Celandine a funny look because he's not sure what he's trying to say...]

... Thank you?

[With that, he rushes toward the bear, taking advantage of its drunk, blind fuzzball state to try and slash at its legs.]

[inexistence]

[ what an endearing person... he'd tease more, if it weren't for the fact that jiros is currently slashing away at a drunke, graffiti fuzzball, and that he doesn't want to be responsible for jiros losing an arm in the process. concentrating on the power lines, he tugs at them with the power of the pin. ]

[subservience]

[yes he would appreciate it if you helped him instead of trolling him andy—

Anyhow he's slashing away, occasionally throwing Andy a glance to make sure that there's nothing coming his way, yep.

He totally trusts you, can you tell.]

[inexistence]

[ but aww trolling you is so much fun, jiros >:

and he so is touched by the amount of trust you have in him, jiros. he catches that glance of yours, and gives you a thumbs-up in return. ]

If you're having fun, by all means. [ KEEP GOING JIROS YOU CAN DO THIS ]
