002 || video + action

Who: Two literal five-year-olds. (aka: Jon Snow and Theon Greyjoy [[personal profile] reek])
Broadcast: fleetwide! whoops.
Action: Three Twins. sorry gang.
When: now!

[Here’s the setting: the engine room of the Three Twins, and Jon is nowhere to be found. Judging from the sounds of the engines humming coming just off-screen, though, he sounds like he’s actually working on something. Or just trying to familiarize himself with how his new equipment and the ship works--he’s learned from the last disaster he’s had, thankfully off the ship.

Apparently, however, he still hasn’t learned from the last time he was unknowingly filmed, but this time it’s a different culprit.

The culprit isn't a particularly good cameraman. The video is shaky, and the occasional thumb makes an appearance over the lens, but somehow with a little quiet maneuvering, the mystery man manages to get Jon into frame. ]


They're actually letting you work down here? Did they miss your previous attempt?

[ The voice is sharp, it's smug, and there's a note of laughter in every word. Surprise, it's everyone's favorite mess, Theon Greyjoy. ]

Well, I suspect they won't miss it this time. Do your crew a favor and try to keep the fire down this time, Snow.

[Jon makes a noise and whips around. It sounds vaguely like a particularly sulfurous curse that, had Jon Snow known a mother, he wouldn’t even dream of spitting out at his worst enemy. But as things stand, Theon’s getting very, very close to that rank, and Jon never knew his mother anyway.

Note that he has a wrench in his hand. That’ll come in handy later.

His eyes narrow when he sees Theon. This won’t go too well, clearly.]


What are you doing here? [And--wait. Is that--he points his wrench at the communicator.] And turn that off, Greyjoy.

[ Theon only laughs and takes a step closer to bring Jon (and the wrench) further into view. He truly believes Jon is about to set this entire engine room on fire, and proof of it on video would be nothing less than delicious. ]

Simple enough. I sensed your stupidity and had to come see it take shape again. [ You don't need to see Theon's face to know he's grinning a cheshire grin. His smile is totally audible. ] I thought everyone else would like to see as well. I'm sure they're willing to wait.

[This is the face of a man who is most definitely a hair’s breadth from just throwing something at Theon’s head. What is it about Greyjoy that brings out Jon’s inner five-year-old, really?]

You’ve wasted their time then. [Do you see any fires here?] Turn that off and leave, Greyjoy. [Or else, is the underlying threat here. And judging from how tense he is he’s very likely to carry out the unspoken threat.]

[ Another laugh from Theon. He's never humored Snow before, so why should he start now? The shakiness of the camera subsides a bit, as if Theon's leaned back against a wall to wait for the real show to begin. ]

Give it a moment, then we'll decide if I've wasted their time.

[Well. He warned him, and Jon’s angry enough now that he decides, fine. He might not have a sword or any kind of viable weapon with him, but he has a wrench and it’s heavy and it should do the job just fine.

Said wrench is not in Jon’s hand anymore, it’s just been thrown straight at Theon’s head, and Jon himself is probably (read: definitely, whether Theon gets hit or not) going to follow that up with making an attempted grab for the communicator so he can turn it off, which won’t turn out all that well.]


[ Theon tries, he tries so hard to duck the wrench because Jon is predictable and was obviously going to make use of what he had. He nearly makes it, but judging by the loud swear he lets out, he clearly wasn't quick enough. ]

Seven hells, you ass... [ The video is shaking something awful now as two medieval five year olds wrestle with one another to stop it from recording. ] Stop--get away from me, Snow! You're doing it wrong.

Then give it--[wait. Shit.

Wrong button.]

Do you think me mad?

[ He sort of has proven himself to be just a little crazy, but... ]

I think you determined to make everyone irritated at the least with you.

[ Yeah, but those times it was accidental. This is intentional. ]

I see no reason not to show the fleet what Snow is capable of. Or rather incapable of.

theshabbiestofmen: You replaced my shampoo with mousse, this is unforgivable. (Anger ☾Irritation rising!)

The fact he didn't smash your head in isn't precisely a cause for mockery. I mean, for god's sake, it's not precisely a character flaw.

Perhaps not, but he has plenty of them regardless.

[ Like his face. Why does he always look so sad. ]

What exactly is your problem with him?

[It's actually a question, not an incredulous demand-- Jon seems perfectly nice, after all.]

[Difficult question to answer, mainly because he doesn't want to give the truth. Jon can never know Theon is actually jealous of him. Seas and rivers would flood, crops would drown, Bio-Dome 2 with Pauly Shore would be made for no real reason. ]

We grew up together. What's a little rivalry between outsiders? Snow just refuses to play along.
