⇋ 003 - voice/action

[voice]

I'm starting... to really hate this place.

[So Greed's not sounding too good today. His voice is pretty strained and his breathing's a little heavy.]

Especially that NPC asshole... and his damn shadows. As if I didn't hate shadows enough before I got here... If I ever get my hands on that brat, I'm gonna make sure nothing'll be left of him, I don't even care if he comes back!

I'm really hoping none of you are thinking of turning in the NPC he wants after this stunt... But if you are, let me know, so I can make sure to kick your ass later!

[action]

[Not long after Greed's message, Ling can be spotted hanging out with the NPC students while wearing the regular uniform, rather than his own black coat. Which would be an odd sight even if it weren't NPCs, as Ling really isn't the type to hang out with multiple people unless there's food involved. But with NPCs? Yeah, that's definitely not right.

However, you might notice that every now and then, he seems to just halt. He'll stop walking, he'll drift off mid-sentence, that sort of thing. Not as if someone's pressed the pause button on him, but more like he momentarily forgets what he's doing. But then a few seconds later, he resumes whatever he's up to. Huh.]

Yeah, plus it'd give him the power of whatever he wanted the other NPC for. We at the very least still have that going for us.
masturbatestoyou: (That's a tough one...)

Yeah, I know we've lost Yuri already, which is certainly a major blow...
masturbatestoyou: (I can't help like this...)

I'm not exactly the most skilled person for dealing with this... I wouldn't be sure I'll hold out that long either...
masturbatestoyou: (What did I do!?)

Avoiding confrontation would be the safest move then, right?
masturbatestoyou: (Please say this isn't real.)

You're caught in a fight already?
masturbatestoyou: (Do not want!)

What, so does that mean he's an NPC already now!?
masturbatestoyou: (I'm to blame!)

I-Is there anything you can do!?
masturbatestoyou: (That's a tough one...)

Right, so uh... Can you expel yourself from his body or something then?

[Things worked like that in manga sometimes, right? Multiple personalities splitting off and gaining their own form or something? Then again, it's not like Greed and Ling are characters from a manga...]

masturbatestoyou: (Ouch)

Ah, sorry? I just thought it might help if there was some way to separate yourself from him...
masturbatestoyou: (You what?)

Voice

[personal profile] masturbatestoyou 2014-03-21 01:47 pm (UTC)(link)
But there's no way of telling when "eventually" might be...?
masturbatestoyou: (What did I do!?)

Right. Becoming an NPC is bad enough, but sharing a body with one...?
masturbatestoyou: (This isn't helping...)

Yeah, I'll say. I wish there was some way I could help...
