003 ∅ action ( goldenrod )

[mayieatthat]

[ Envy is babysitting Gluttony today, and there are shenanigans going around. Right now, somewhere in the city of Goldenrod, Envy and Gluttony are hiding in dark alleys and watching people pass by.

Just as you happen to be passing by, Gluttony will suddenly be rushing out at you! He's been instructed to not eat anyone, but it's still got to be a pretty terrifying thing to see, having a large man -- is that even a man? Could be a Pokemon, in all honesty... -- charging at you, mouth wide open, drool everywhere, and sporting a rather crazed look that only people who haven't been fed in a while have.

... What do? ]



[[ ooc note: either Envy or Gluttony could be replying to your thread~ but it'll open with just Gluttony attacking, and nobody will know Envy is even involved unless he decides to show himself~ ]]

[Nice weather, bit of ice cream, wandering casually around the city...

...and then something just decides to lunge at you for no apparent reason. Nice.

It's fortunate that Rima's reflexes are good enough to avoid being charged into even after this humanization thing. The ice cream on the other hand ends up splattered on the ground.

She sighs in exasperation, looking down at the wasted treat before turning her head towards Gluttony, eyes narrowing slightly]

Thanks for that.

[mayieatthat]

[ He misses, and manages to lunge forward into a weird roll.

It takes a few minutes to get himself oriented again, and then he's staring blankly at the girl.

... He's not supposed to eat her. He was supposed to terrify her, but she doesn't look very terrified... and he's confused by this.

And then she... thanks him? ]

You're welcome!

[ Not sure what he's being thanked for, here. But happy to have helped. ]

Aww XD

[su6tlecoruscate]

[...Wrong response Gluttony...

But at least this "clueless child" appearance is better than "crazed animal" look he had a second ago.

She's still being cautious and keeping her distance, but Rima's now feeling less annoyed and more like "why do I bother?"]

Guess sarcasm's a little lost on you.

[mayieatthat]

[ Just... have a blank look. Yes, yes sarcasm is lost on him. ]

[subtlecoruscate]

[And here's an equally blank stare in return, because how else do you respond to this?

...bet this looks odd]

[mayieatthat]

[ There's a stretch of silence as they just kind of eye each other.

And then Gluttony decides that maybe he'll just try it again. So he puts on his scariest face, and rushes toward her, growling. ]

[su6tlecoruscate]

Ah!

[This time there isn't enough time to react before he barrels into her, knocking her to the ground

It takes a moment to register what happened. And then it's back to glaring]

What is wrong with you?

[Her shoulder is definitely going to bruise tomorrow...]

[mayieatthat]

[ It's going to take him a moment to switch from vicious attack dog back to normal mode. He's promised not to harm anyone, but with actual flesh so close, it's hard to resist.

So mouth open and drooling horribly, Gluttony just stares down at her. ]

[subtlecoruscate]

[Just going to keep glaring at him... while shuffling away slightly because getting covered in drool would not make this situation any better.

Her hand reaches for a Pokeball, just in case he decides to rush over and attack her again]

[mayieatthat]

[ A pause, and suddenly he's back to being derpy and confused.

No, but... why aren't you scared? ]

[subtlecoruscate]

[Honestly? The monsterous side of him is a lot like a Level E. And Rima spends lunch breaks killing those off.

The random moments of cluelessness are new though]

Do you even know what you're doing?

[Not that she's really expecting a proper answer. Worth trying though]

[mayieatthat]

[ He's going shake his head at that.

... And then nod. No wait, he knows what he's doing, you're the one who's confused. ]

You're supposed to be scared.

[su6tlecoruscate]

[She'll take that as a no]

What makes you say that?

[This face forever]

[mayieatthat]

.... Because I attacked you.

[ Logic. He has it. ]

[subtlecoruscate]

So that's your reason for this?

[mayieatthat]

[ Rapid nodding. He's very glad you understand. ]

[su6tlecoruscate]

[...]

That's a terrible reason.

[Understand =/= approve]

[mayieatthat]

.... Why?

[ Oh wait, oh wait. He's got this. ]

What would make you scared?

[su6tlecoruscate]

You really expect me to answer that?

[Rima is almost concerned about you...]

[mayieatthat]

[ Genuine nodding here. Why wouldn't you answer it? It is a legit question. ]

[su6tlecoruscate]

[Except it isn't. Really]

I'm not.

[mayieatthat]

Not scared?

[subtlecoruscate]

Not going to answer.

[mayieatthat]

... Okay.

[ He is surprisingly okay with this. ]

[su6tlecoruscate]

[...it's like talking to a child...

Slowly she begins to pick herself up off the ground, still keeping a wary eye on Gluttony]
