lockandkeyblade[Hey there, Vatheon! Time for a homely little broadcast of a cozy looking ... stable? Since when did Vatheon have horses? Must be new. The screen pans slowly, revealing a vast open field, bordered by a rickety white fence. Sora's voice speaks off screen:]
Hey guys- check out what showed up at Nostalgia Nook!
[And then woa! Fluffy yellow feathers invade the screen. The SFC shakes as the person holding it begins to laugh. Sora swivels the SFC on himself. His hood is caught in the beak of a rather large bird. Behind him are several more, nearly twice Sora's height and scattered throughout the field.]
They're called Chocobos. Some are pretty friendly. The guy at the stable? He says I can have one if I take good care of it! [Another Chocobo head bobs into the screen, nibbling at the end of a spike of Sora's hair. He doesn't seem to mind.] You can even ride them, but you gotta train em' first.
Oh. And when you sing, sometimes they'll dance. Watch!
[The screen swivels around, squaring on an unassuming Chocobo several yards ahead. Sora clears his throat, and begins to whistle a tune. The bird in question quirks its head at the SFC and surprise, surprise, it actually begins to dance! It bobs, sways, rolls its head, warking rather excitedly, drawing attention of other ones nearby who more or less begin to do the same.]
[Just when things start getting interesting, that's when it all stops: there's a loud, irritated wark right behind the SFC. Sora has halted his musical performance and the screen has wandered away from the dancing chocobo as if Sora has become distracted offscreen. Could be trouble...]
Uhh.... hey there... You want some greens, is that it?
I'm sure I've got some around here. Hang on a sec....H-hey!
Wait, what're you - Oh no!!
[The screen finally jerks around, catching a flash Sora being tugged backwards, his hood caught in the beak of a rather irate looking bird. The broadcast stops.]

Date: 2011-01-29 06:54 pm (UTC)[But speaking of cursing? There. His hand in the beak. That warrants it. Then again, it takes very little to set him off.]
Jegus fucking damnit christ! Let go of me you fucking brainless flapbeast!
[He... might just be able to pull his hand back. But what if it bites down? WHAT IF THE BEAK SCRATCHES HIM? He can't. He simply cannot do it. So he just keeps yelling.]
If this thing doesn't bite my hand off I am PUNCHING YOUR DAMN FACE IN, SORA!
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-29 09:02 pm (UTC)[Sora to the rescue! ... Though it looks like the bird isn't letting go very easy. Still, there's got to be a way to pry open its beak without having to stick his fingers in there.
What? Karkat may have his hand stuck in there, but Sora's not about to put his in too.Instead, he tries pulling its head back and away from Karkat's hand.][He speaks as he struggles:] Punching me in the face isn't very good incentive for me to help you, you know!
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-29 09:09 pm (UTC)And if he does prepare for a massive freakout.][But in the meanwhile? Sorry, Sora. Karkat's a jerk through and through.]
Fuck you! You're the jackass who made me come out here to see the damn things! Calling me afraid of them? Real fucking mature. And now this damn thing is trying to eat me!
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-29 10:36 pm (UTC)[He'll come to learn eventually. For now he'll just... try not to flinch every time Karkat curses. He tugs the Chocobo a little farther back.]
Try pulling out your hand. Might get a scrape or two, but you'll keep your fingers.
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-29 10:43 pm (UTC)[But pull his hand out? And risk scrapes? Fuck no, man.]
It's your fault; yet get the damn thing off me.
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-30 12:25 am (UTC)[Finally, after another tug, the Chocobo opens its beak, releasing Karkat from its grip. Sora loses his hold and stumbles a few steps back.]
Woa!
[The Chocobo shakes its head, and then preens the feathers under a wing.]
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-30 01:44 am (UTC)Fucking stupid ass flapbeast. Remind me to never listen to you again.
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-30 03:41 am (UTC)[More importantly though:] Still got all your fingers?
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-30 03:43 am (UTC)[He still won't show Sora his hand, though.]
What did you even want me to come here for, anyway?
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-30 08:08 pm (UTC)I dunno, it just seemed like a fun idea at the time.
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-30 08:13 pm (UTC)[He's backing up himself, against the fence, pressing his hand against his chest more while simultaneously trying to cover it better.]
It was a stupid fucking idea anyway, jackass. You're a moron. A complete fucking idiot.
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-30 08:44 pm (UTC)Come on, let me see it. Don't be such a baby! I can heal.
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-30 08:50 pm (UTC)Deal with it, nooklicker. You can't see. I don't need you to fucking heal shit; I've walked off three stab wounds just fine before. I am not and have never been the pink wriggling monkey you call an earth human baby, either, so fuck off.
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-30 10:58 pm (UTC)You know, I've just about had it with your bad attitude!
So what if some bird gave you a little nip? Big deal! If you can walk off with three stab wounds, then that little thing should be nothing to get all upset over.
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-30 11:04 pm (UTC)Well too fucking bad because guess who doesn't give a shit?
And it's not like "oh no I'm in so much pain, woe is me" bullshit; it doesn't even fucking hurt. I'm sturdier than you squishy pink monkeys anyway. It's just none of your fucking business if I got scratched or not, so fuck the hell off.
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-31 12:11 am (UTC)Oh yeah? You know what? I'm calling your bluff! If it's not that bad, how come you're still hiding it, huh?
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-31 12:14 am (UTC)[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-31 01:03 am (UTC)[That's not... that's not what he expected. It kind of also diffuses Sora's anger.]
... Whether you're... bleeding?
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-31 01:07 am (UTC)[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-31 01:21 am (UTC)What're you, scared of blood or something?
Everybody bleeds, Karkat. It's not like it matters whether I see or not.
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-31 01:23 am (UTC)[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-31 01:36 am (UTC)[Second:] Okay, okay, geeze. If I knew you were gonna get all crazy about it I would've just...
If I turn my back and heal it, would you settle down already?
[ACTION]
Date: 2011-01-31 01:43 am (UTC)[Gotta cover all the bases, yo.]
