[The school is empty. The school is quiet. The only sound that cuts through the silence is the soft ticking of the hallway clocks that mark the passing of each second.]

[. . .]

[At least. . . until a stiff breeze whips through the classrooms, scattering dirty papers and jerking the curtains aside. The clock strikes 6:00 a.m.]

[The school bell chimes.]

[ Look he tossed one at a window himself. He gets the idea of weaponizing a desk, though his shattered on impact, so it didn't make for a particularly good weapon.

He will maintain a nice desk distance of space apart from what the man is swinging. Though he does look a little surprised by the style of cursing happening here.

Huh.

You may want to put that down before you hit someone unrelated to... whoever it is you're intending to curse out here.

[You can see the gears turning, and after a moment he nods and lets go with both hands. RIP garbage maul, you are definitely going to shatter]

Fair, dude. Fair. It's not like the gods are listenin'.

[ It was good while it lasted? Maybe. Zuo Le is breathing out a small sigh of relief that the man actually listened to him. ]

I... no, probably not.

[ The gods, huh? ]

Whatever is listening to us right now doesn't seem all that inclined to play nice with us.

Don't worry, all the dudes I was with figured that the fuck out already. Would've been nice to get some real answers.
candlestick: (let the darkness lead us)

[personal profile] candlestick 2025-07-21 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, it would have...

[ The voice had offered some help, but given the reaction when they didn't do what it wanted, well... ]

Though perhaps not at whatever price we might have had to pay to get them.

Too bad for them that the metal dude in the swamp already warned my ass about the fey!
candlestick: (a million little pieces)

[personal profile] candlestick 2025-07-21 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
What are the fey?

[ He's had no swamp dwelling metal dudes to warn him about any. ]

... Faeries and shit? They're fucking nuts, dude. And if you get stuck in their domain you don't know how fast time is actually movin' outside.

[ Time distortion, huh? That does sound like it could get very tricky very fast, especially given the kind of responsibilities that Zuo Le has back home. ]

And you think they're behind this?
inexorableiron: (Juuust a crick in the neck.)

[personal profile] inexorableiron 2025-07-21 01:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Dunno, dude, but I do know they got some weird shit about names. We got a big ol' fuckin' warning about that written out for us, and some shitty voice askin' for us to tell them that shit anyway.

[He jumps a little, swatting at spiders across his scarred manly chest]

Uh, yeah. They can do weird shit. The vizier dude's thinkin' yokai, but either way, fuck dude. Sucks.
candlestick: (your palms the sweetest pain)

[personal profile] candlestick 2025-07-22 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
[ Can he see them? Are there really spiders there? It's hard to tell, but Zuo Le was also someone who reached into the doll's face, so he understands, unconsciously reaching up to scratch his head at the memory of them scurrying through his hair. ]

I couldn't really say myself, but it sounds like some possible contenders.

[ A frown as he thinks on this. ]

Do you have any usual means of dealing with the fey?
inexorableiron: (Stand and fight.)

[personal profile] inexorableiron 2025-07-22 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
Cold iron, but I don't have that on me, dude. They fuckin' robbed us, somehow I doubt we ain't alone.

[ His hand naturally moves towards his hip at that comment, frowning to himself. Not that his sword is pure iron, but... ]

I noticed that quickly as well.

[personal profile] inexorableiron 2025-07-22 11:48 am (UTC)(link)
I guess it makes fuckin' sense for 'em. They just had to fucking go piss off this many dudes and they're asshole cowards afraid to fight.
candlestick: (in your eyes)

[personal profile] candlestick 2025-07-23 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
[ That last comment does perk him up a little. ]

Are you saying that if we can take the fight to them, that we'd have a chance then?
inexorableiron: (Stand and fight.)

[personal profile] inexorableiron 2025-07-23 02:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I gotta believe it, dude! I didn't train this fucking hard to go this fucking far to get stopped now. I don't believe it's like, impossible.
candlestick: (let the darkness lead us)

[personal profile] candlestick 2025-07-26 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
You're not alone in that. I wouldn't want to think all of my training has gone to waste either...

[ A thoughtful pause as he considers this carefully. ]

But if we don't approach them right, any amount of training we have may not be helpful.
