Title: The Alternate World
The Powers That Be - May 23, 2005 11:52 PM (GMT)
[Rolling hills. Blue sky. Beautiful day. Peacefulness. Bunnies. Flowers. Babbling brook. Lake with beach. Sun. Endless. You could walk for years and never find different landscape.]
::Dante, Veronica and Moira appear with a "POP" in the air, tumbling onto the ground.::
Veronica - May 24, 2005 12:16 AM (GMT)
::Veronica rolls over and flops onto her back, arms flat out and dazed. She's still for a few moments, before sitting up and pushing her hair out of her face.::
"What the..."
::She looks around.::
"How...?"
Dante - May 24, 2005 12:21 AM (GMT)
::Dante rolls up and onto his feet as quickly as he can and then looks around::
"Damn you, Veronica, and your treasure hunting ways!"
(Where are weeeeee?!)
"I blame Moira."
Veronica - May 24, 2005 12:24 AM (GMT)
::Veronica also stands up.::
"Dammit, Moira, what have you done?"
::She pushes at the girl with her foot.::
Moira - May 24, 2005 11:25 AM (GMT)
(Ruh-hude!)
::Moira ignores the other two, 'cause it was so their fault. She gets up and looks about.::
"Where the hell are we?"
Dante - May 24, 2005 02:39 PM (GMT)
"Tellytubby land apparently."
(If LaLa comes near me he's getting a kick)
Moira - May 24, 2005 02:55 PM (GMT)
::Moira squats down to look at a peacefully nibbling bunny.::
"This place give me the creeps."
Veronica - May 24, 2005 10:05 PM (GMT)
::Veronica pulls Moira and Dante along by their sleeves, and they start to walk. And walk. And walk. After about twenty minutes of goddamn walking, Veronica gets angry.::
"Okay, this place is just the same in every direction we go. What the hell? Where are we? How can this exist inside a goddamn necklace?"
Dante - May 24, 2005 10:34 PM (GMT)
"The same way I can use your powers and you're able to make illusions solid. Magic!"
::He sighs and lies on the grass, wondering if they were ever going to get out::
"I still blame Moira."
Veronica - May 24, 2005 10:58 PM (GMT)
"Me too. Bitch."
::She glowers at Moira, but there's a hint of a smile. She decides to explore a little, while Dante tans or whatever his vain ass is up to. She feels calm in this place, and not worried.::
"It's nice here."
Moira - May 25, 2005 04:22 PM (GMT)
::Moira lies down too.::
"Well, there's obviously nothing we can do."
::She yawns.::
"We may as well just wait here. Someone's bound to come and rescue us at some point."
Dog - May 25, 2005 11:23 PM (GMT)
::A cute, medium sized doggie-wog snuffles along and stops when it comes to the three weirdos. It yips a bit and starts to wander off, coming back and yipping again.::
Dante - May 25, 2005 11:50 PM (GMT)
::Dante stares dispassionately at the dog::
"What's that, Lassie, Timmy is stuck down the well?"
Dog - May 25, 2005 11:55 PM (GMT)
::Arf arf. Funny. The dog snarls and catchs its teeth into the leg of Dante's trousers, tugging at him, before letting go and scampering off, then coming back, yipping at them, and scampering off again.::
Dante - May 26, 2005 12:19 AM (GMT)
"The mangy piece of crap wants us to follow it."
::He stares at his trousers, trying not to think about the dog drool, and then gets up, deciding there wasn't anything better to do than follow a random dog::
"Let's go then."
Moira - May 26, 2005 08:53 AM (GMT)
::Moira sighs and gets up.::
"Come on then."
Veronica - May 26, 2005 10:50 AM (GMT)
::Was already standing. She stands a distance away, staring fixedly at the mutt.::
"I don't like dogs..."
Moira - May 26, 2005 10:51 AM (GMT)
"Nor do I. It seem to like Dante though."
Veronica - May 26, 2005 10:55 AM (GMT)
"Then make sure it stays with him."
::Continues to hang back.::
Moira - May 26, 2005 10:56 AM (GMT)
Dog - May 26, 2005 11:04 AM (GMT)
::The dog seems pleased enough to stay away from Veronica as it skips along, turning every few seconds to check they're following. They come to a yellow brick road. The dog jumps on it and barks.::
Moira - May 26, 2005 11:08 AM (GMT)
"Right. So we're off to see the wizard, huh?"
Veronica - May 26, 2005 11:10 AM (GMT)
::Veronica looks even more creeped out.::
"I really don't like The Wizard of Oz..."
Moira - May 26, 2005 11:12 AM (GMT)
Veronica - May 26, 2005 11:18 AM (GMT)
"It's horrible."
::Veronica looks around, paranoid that those awful little midgets are going to start singing and dancing around her.::
Moira - May 26, 2005 11:23 AM (GMT)
(Ding dong, the witch is dead, which old witch, the wicked witch, ding dong the wicked witch is deeead. Wake up you sleepy head, rub your eyes, get out of bed, ding dong the wicked witch is deeead!)
"So, do we follow the yellow brick road?"
::She asks uncertainly.::
Veronica - May 26, 2005 11:27 AM (GMT)
"No, I don't want to, let's go back."
::She begins to look just a little bit afraid.::
Moira - May 26, 2005 11:29 AM (GMT)
::Looks at Dante.::
"What do you think?"
Dog - May 26, 2005 11:31 AM (GMT)
::Yips a bit and starts making his way along the road.::
Dante - May 26, 2005 03:16 PM (GMT)
"I'm going to follow it. It beats lying on the grass and waiting to die."
::He follows the dog some more, deciding he'd been in worse situations than this::
"It's not that bad, I guess. At least there aren't any morons here."
(Yet)
Moira - May 26, 2005 03:29 PM (GMT)
"Come on then."
::She starts walking down the yellow brick road, hugging herself.::
Veronica - May 27, 2005 11:08 AM (GMT)
::Veronica also follows, hanging back, as this just really gets to her. She considers what Dante said, and mumbles to herself.::
"Yet."
The Powers That Be - May 27, 2005 12:05 PM (GMT)
[Hey, look everyone! It's Azura!]
Veronica - May 27, 2005 12:07 PM (GMT)
::Veronica stares.::
"Great."
Azura - May 27, 2005 12:08 PM (GMT)
:: Azura lands painfully. She blinks. And blinks some more when she realises she is sitting on a yellow brick road. Hearing Veronica she groans. ::
(This is some cruel trick my power is playing on me.)
:: She gets to her feet and stares at her. ::
"Oh. You."
Veronica - May 27, 2005 12:09 PM (GMT)
"Yes. Me. Did you pick up a locket in the caves, by any chance?"
Azura - May 27, 2005 12:10 PM (GMT)
"Yes. I am assuming that is what brought me here."
Veronica - May 27, 2005 12:17 PM (GMT)
::Veronica sighs and glares at Moira.::
"This is all your fault!"
Azura - May 27, 2005 12:21 PM (GMT)
:: A faint smile crosses Azura's lips, glade she isn't the one to be blamed. ::
"Are we inacting that famous scene from that tasteless film?"
:: Points at the yellow brick road. ::
Moira - May 27, 2005 01:38 PM (GMT)
