action 02

[devilsinthedetails]

Who: Cole Turner and you. yes, you. even you over there.
Broadcast: none!
Action: EVERYWHERE except the marsiva obviously
When: April 3rd

[No matter what ship you're on, there is a guy shimmering on it at any part of the ship you might be, not really caring where he shows up because that doesn't seem to matter to him. What seems to matter is that he's looking at a watch and disgusted by what he finds there.]

That's the worst time yet. I used to be better than this. Have I gotten lazy...or dare I say it, old? No, that can't be. I'm obviously just out of practice.

[And unless he's interrupted, he just looks like he's psyching himself up before he shimmers out to the next place, apparently trying to beat his time? idk, demons are weird and really vain.]

[ How about a grown man-plant singing children songs. ]

Itsy bitsy spider~ Climbed up a water spout! [ He totally looked into his cup of water when he sang water spout! ]

Down came the rain~ And washed the spider out! [ This med bay is full of plants, and you just shimmered in on him watering them. ]

i'm not sorry

[normallycharmed]

[ Cole you should really know better, honestly. Welcome to Starstruck's kitchen. Welcome to something just behind you exploding at the sudden intrusion. Luckily it's not a wall or something or everyone would be in trouble.

Does that stop you? Because if not she's cursing up an air into thin air. ]

[devilsinthedetails]

[oh no, that's cute. he has to stop.]

Out came the sun and dried up all the rain and the itsy-bitsy climbed up the spout again.

[And there's a grown half-demon singing the rest of that.]

never be sorry

[devilsinthedetails]

[YEAH THAT KIND OF STOPS HIM and he's kinda nostalgic for home now.]

Piper, hi! Didn't expect to run into you. [He laughs.] Good to see some things haven't changed even without your memory.

[He's really quite calm about all of this.]

[Beverly is sitting in the cockpit of one of Blue Fish's shuttles, glaring at the controls. They only bear the vaguest of similarities to Federation ships. She slams a fist down on the console. It bloops innocuously at her.]

Damn it!

[devilsinthedetails]

[He crosses his arms and looks somewhat amused by what he's shimmered in on.]

Having some trouble there, Doctor?

[dancingmd]

[She jumps and turns around in her seat.]

How did you get in here?!

maybe i will be

[normallycharmed]

[ You are so lucky she remembers liking you, good sir. Really. She'd just barely had time to not miss him and pull her hands quickly back. Did you miss that scowl? Because it's what she's doing. Immediately ignoring all pleasantries to ground out: ]

Don't you laugh. You're lucky I didn't just decide to explode you into pieces.

[realhumanbeing]

Hey!

[Steven gasps as the guy shimmers into place, and he leaps to his feet. That looks like a warp beam--]

Hey, wait, who are you! Are you a Gem? Are you warping around the place?

[faithfulwisdom]

[You know, it's probably hazardous to shimmer in on a guy sharpening his sword- and no, that's not a euphemism. Luckily, Finrod has seen enough Weird Shit in his time that he just looks up and blinks at Cole.]

You are...timing yourself?

[What on Earth, man?]

no you won't

[devilsinthedetails]

[He can't help it, he's laughing some more. Sorry, Piper.]

Well, it wouldn't be the first time it's happened.

[devilsinthedetails]

Shimmering. It's a type of teleportation that some of my kind can do.

[He looks vaguely apologetic? But not really.]

I wasn't shooting for any specific location, if that helps any.

[devilsinthedetails]

[It says a lot that Cole doesn't even blink at the sword. After all, he's been stabbed before and he knows that it'd take a few hours for it to kill him.]

Yeah, I'm trying to see how fast my shimmers are. They've gotten slower and I need to practice if I want to get them back to their proper speed.

[Cole looks as the shimmer happens, and recognises what it is.]

You can teleport too!

[innercactus]

[ Asteffiel turns on sun lamps on "out came the sun", and double checks that he had watered the plant with all of that cup. ]

... Want to do a round?

[ He'll start singing it again, and then ... whoever this is can follow! And maybe help him water the plants. ]

[dancingmd]

No! It doesn't! What if you shoot yourself right into space?

[She gestures vaguely towards the hull, to the outside of the ship]

[devilsinthedetails]

[He waves it off like it's not important.]

I haven't done it yet and I'm actively trying for ships. I was talking more about how I wasn't actively trying to shimmer to you specifically.

[dancingmd]

[With a pseudo-wounded look on her face.]

I'm hurt.

you don't know that

[normallycharmed]

[ The scowl deepens, as she raises a finger to point at him. This is not amusing at all. ]

Yes, well, this time maybe you won't come back. Think of that?

yes I do

[devilsinthedetails]

[Well, it's not so much amusing as it is that Cole uses laughter as punctuation, but Piper will learn once again that Cole is weird because raised demon.]

Well, I am no longer invincible, but I've been told it might not even matter. Not that I'm really all that keen to try, so how we move from the threats of blowing me up to the general distrust that makes up our usual relationship?

[devilsinthedetails]

[Oh hello there. He doesn't really know many people who can teleport in the fleet outside of like....his son.]

I can! How about that. Not many of us that can do that here, I've found.

[devilsinthedetails]

[He bows dramatically in response to her words, grinning as he does.]

I do apologize for crushing your possibly wild dreams of me showing up just for you. Please accept my forgiveness and allow me to make it up to you somehow.

[dancingmd]

[She returns his grin with an amused half-smile and an eyebrow raise.]

I don't suppose you have a pilot augment, do you?

[forcemageure]

[ ...uh. Welcome to the armory! ]

You know, [ Hawke interrupts the psyching up and or shimmering, after he's finished uh, about half-startling in place; he's not actually this blase, his surprise reflexes are just broken ] I've heard popping up in a place full of guns is an excellent way to get yourself shot.

Wouldn't do much for your aerodynamics. [ Well. He puts down the handgun he is dismantling, basically just to get awesome at it. ] Unless you lost a limb, I suppose. At the least you'd be lighter!

[killedwithlove]

I don't know if I can teleport as far as you. I can move about a ship, but I don't usually go long distances.

I've never been in spaces as big as these.
