in which things do not go as planned

Who: Kirito, OTA
Broadcast: Y
Action: SS Paisley
When: Today's fine!


( video )

[The view switches on to reveal Kirito in the Spriggan avatar, crouched low with the camera tilted up towards him. Looks like it's on the ground.]

Okay, I'm using the comm so I have a record of what this looks like. I tried to encrypt it to make it private, but that's not my augment, so who knows if it worked. Feel free to ignore!

[He finishes fidgeting with the comm, tilting it at just the right angle, then disappears behind it for a second before reappearing at a distance, one hand lifted above his head.]

Þeír hræða nótt dýpt, renn helvegr!*

[As he begins, the full spell materializes in front of him in gold text and rotates around his body; when each word is spoken, it flashes white and vanishes. Once the full incantation is done, his body is consumed by a tornado of dark smoke, obscuring him from view. There's a muffled roar, and a burst of fire immediately following, and suddenly the room rumbles, knocking the comm off-balance.

When the smoke is clear the only thing visible is the cargo bay ceiling. There's a moment of scuffling and an "ow, geez!" in the background before finally a thumping of footsteps, heavier than someone ought to have with Kirito's stature. Through the smoke, one might catch fleeting glances of curled horns, dark fur, and glowing red eyes.

When at last he speaks, his voice is oddly distorted, something off about it.]


Whoa, okay, uh- crap. ....Paisley crew? Maybe don't go to the cargo bay for a while...?


( paisley )

[Anyone who happens to feel like wandering into the cargo bay despite his warning will find a ten-foot-tall hellbeast hunched over in the corner trying (and failing) to look inconspiculous, chanting quietly and looking kind of pathetic, appearance aside.]


[*Kirito's spell is Norse. Meaning, "Frighten them, depth of the night, and chase them along the roads of Hell."]

[ he is entirely confident that kirito has a handle on whatever is going on with him, or at least he didn't sense any immediate danger when he was approaching. anakin was so focused on kirito and his cargo bay bed the he forgot that it could be dangerous for himself.

he skids into the cargo bay, barely allowing the door to slide open before he barges in. he waves away the smoke, coughing as he does. ]


Kirito! Are you still in here!

[ he coughs into his arm and use the force to blow away some of the smoke in kirito's general direction. he stands in front of the storage crate, with kirito's horns in view. ]

I'll stop "freaking out" if you come out from behind there. [ mutter: ] Is that - what were you doing?

[ he spits out a hutttese curse, mangles it with a startled yell. ]

What the kriff! What is this! What are you?

I'm not-- It's looking very permanent for an illusion!

[ he takes a few steps back and looks at kirito once again, partly confused and partly disturbed ]

How long is this going to last?

You haven't tried this before? [ he shakes his head. unsure of how to proceed at this point, he looks around at the mess of smoke and scattered pieces and boxes from the transformation.

sighing: ]


There goes my cargo bay...

[ he waves an arm up at him, a pinch frustrated when he sees him move ]

Stop! Stop moving! You're going to hurt yourself some more! [ anakin shoves a few crates together and makes a seat for kirito's monster-like form ] Sit there and don't move until this illusion is over. What were you practicing this for?

[ sorry if he is super fussy about a guy who can transform himself into whatever this is!

and really he's not so concerned about kirito. he's looking woefully at the state of the cargo bay. ]


You didn't think you should practice this -- I don't know, when we're not on a space ship. Nevermind the potential death by being thrown in space, do they even collect our bodies if that happens?

[ that doesn't help. he doesn't like things that he can't hit. but setting that aside for now, since there's nothing he can possibly do about it, he folds his arms and continues to look grumpy ]

I want to know something, in what scenario do you see yourself using this illusion?

Oh. Salamanders. Of course. What, did the rest of the amphibian kingdom forgot about this ambush.

[ sarcasm, so much of it ]

Were you on some kind of quest before you got abducted here?

[ he spreads his arms wide, more exuberant than he should be right now ]

Everything! You were ambushed by fairies! You were on a date! And you're-- [ he makes vague gestures with his hands at kirito ] this thing!
