003 ∅ action ( goldenrod )

[ 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~ ]]

[ He barely feels the punch, and it comes a bit too late anyways, because Gluttony is already kind of on top of his target by the time the punch connects.

He tackles his target to the ground. And... then isn't really sure what to do from there. He has to force himself to not eat this one, either. Because he promised he wouldn't eat any of them.

But it's really tempting. And so he's just... kind of... sitting on top of this guy and drooling all over him. ]

_{[It takes him a moment to fully realize what's slowly soaking his shirt, because he didn't hit the pavement gracefully and he notes with mild resignation that he must've hit his head again, if the slow dull pain at the back of his skull is any indication. But then when he opens his eyes and things snap into focus, he freezes momentarily.]

[Oh, god. That's repulsing.]

[Cooper lifts an arm to shield his face both as an instinctual action to protect himself from whatever assault that might be headed his way and partly because he's decidedly not a fan of drool.]

[He makes sure he has a good look on the other, though, and shoots him a cold glare even as he's estimating his chances of just getting away (very small) and what he can do to help those odds increase.]

[Talking is a good start, of course, and voice steely, he makes a very simple demand.]}

Let go of me.

[ He stops at that. Because... the point of this whole thing is to scare people, but it doesn't work very well if the targets aren't scared.

He doesn't heed the command, because it isn't from one of his siblings. But he has stopped drooling now, and is now just kind of blankly staring at the person crushed under him.

What do? Why isn't this one scared? ]

_{[Because it's not the first time he's been knocked to the ground by someone and he's been trained to keep his cool. That training kicked in the moment he found someone else over him and it's there in the hard gaze he's pinning Gluttony with.]

[There is a certain sense of alarm, of course, because no one likes being trapped, especially not like this, with massive body-weight making it hard to breathe properly and agitated pulse echoing in their skull, but Cooper can deal.]

[He's dealt with worse.]

[So he bites it out again, bracing himself somewhat against the massive body on top of him, just to feel less ... well, flat. It's more or less ineffective.]}

Move.

[ He pauses or a moment, and then rolls off. And just kind of stands close by, examining the other person.

Well. Rushing at them obviously didn't seem to work. What else could he try?

... except Gluttony isn't that fast of a thinker, so give him some time to... think... this one through. ]

[Well, that seems like Envy's cue for his part of the game, as funny as this is to watch.]

[He runs out from the hiding spot in the alley, skidding to a halt a little ways away from where Gluttony looks like he might actually try to eat the guy, and points dramatically.]

Hey, you! Get away from that kid!

[While he's busy having fun with his act, he does notice that the boy's wallet is sticking out of his pocket and would be perfect for stealing if he can get close enough before he runs off. Covering food bribery costs, hell yes.]

[ He removes his mouth from the kid immediately after hearing Envy. But there's a twinge of regret as he glances back down at the kid. He's right there... and he's not even fighting back. ... Would he really have to leave this one alone?

Finally, making a slightly disgruntled sound at having to let his food go, Gluttony shoves the boy in Envy's general direction and dashes back into the shadows of the alleys.

There, he'll just sit and watch Envy deal with their target. And wait for him to come back. ]

[ He's fast, thankfully, and that's the only reason Gluttony manages to avoid Weavile's swipes.

He takes a few bounds backwards, and sizes up Isaac and the Weavile. He's too used to being immortal, that it doesn't even register that he... might not want to fight this thing.

But he's been told to not actually harm, but to traumatize. Does that apply to Pokemon, too? Or can he just... tear through this thing and eat it? ]

[you know, if he had his powers he could have heard gluttony charging at him a mile away, but alas... he turns around before he's turned into super grounded meat boy though! he swiftly reaches back and punches the crazed man in the gut.]

[...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.

[The Weavile returns to Isaac's side, watching Gluttony carefully.]

What the hell do you want?

[Might as well try again, though Isaac's beginning to wonder if this thing is even human at all.]

Terrorize, terrorize!

[ That's an easy question to answer.

Now the question is now to go about doing it. This isn't fun at all, if the target is just going to stand there and ask him questions. ]

[ If Gluttony had his powers, a punch to the gut would mean nothing; he'd barely feel it. But unfortunately, he's a human here, and... he definitely felt that one.

He stumbles back, feeling a bit stunned, and rubbing his stomach.

What is this strange feeling? ... What does he do with it? ]

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

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

...bet this looks odd]

[conner puts his fists up and quickly gets into a fighting stance.]

Terrorize? Why the hell would you need to do that?

[Well, that rules out the possibility of this thing being a Pokemon of some sort. Unless it's name is "Terrorize" which would be a horrible Pokemon name.]

Is someone giving you orders?

[That possibility causes both Isaac and the Weavile to glance around. Is there someone else here controlling this... man?]

[ 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. ]

[ He takes a minute to rub his stomach until it feels a little better, and then Gluttony will just get up and walk over to the side a little. If he attacks from behind, that'll be easier, right? Away from that fist that seems to hurt a lot. ]

[ ... Terrorize, terrorize...!! Best Pokemon name.

He's just going to stare blankly at Isaac. He doesn't think he's supposed to be giving out Envy's name. So he's not sure how to answer that question. ]

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...]

[he lowers his fists some, but not enough to drop his guard all together. he circles around as he waits for the next attack. usually he'd charge right on in, but this time... this time he's trying a different approach.]

[ 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. ]

[ Oh. Circling him to get to the other side won't work. ... this one will move with him.

Gluttony pauses and glances back at the alley that he'd bolted out of. Is he supposed to continue with this one... or...? ]

[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]
