014 ♑ [fourteenth honk]

Characters: Gamzee and YOU.
Setting: Multiple floors, occurring during the weather event. (3/17-3/23)
Format: Action.
Summary: Gamzee has equally embarrassing reactions to all seasons. Staying afloat, indecent exposure, blocking the halls, and pelting people with ice balls while trying not to freeze to death. Come join him for some fun*!
Warnings: Gamzee.

*YMMV.

Spring (Dorm Floor)

[Carrying a recuperacoon was not easy work. With this in mind, no one could really blame Gamzee for not being able to move it very far. Maybe if he emptied the slime from it, it would be a little easier to transport, but that was the last thing he wanted to do.]

[Wearing his old blue shirt, scarf and winter jacket (the only other clothes he owned besides his normal attire), Gamzee sacrificed the rest of his belongings by using his trunk to keep his precious cocoon out of the rising tide. He'd managed to maneuver it into the dorm hallway, wading through the water already soaking the floor to lift the large, slime-filled pod up on to the top of the trunk. This would keep it safe from the flood for now, but if the rain continued, he'd have to find somewhere else to take it. For now, though, he's going to climb up the side of the thing, perching on the narrow top and pulling the hood of his jacket up over his head. Or, trying to, at least. Horn holes were a difficult thing to manage, one-handed and in the pouring rain while clutching the side of a slippery recuperacoon for dear life.]

[Good lord, someone help him.]


Summer (Any Floor)

[After the torrential downpour of Spring comes the beastly heat of Summer. Gamzee is not built for extreme temperatures, although his cooler blood and body temperature help him out some, the skyrocketing temperature made short work of him. Dragging himself out of his room in search of any place that might have been even remotely cooler, Gamzee had left a trail of clothes in his wake.]

[Starting from the dorms, he made his way down the stairs, stopping off on random floors in search of shady spots to pass out in. The whole process could be akin to the Evolution of Man in reverse. He started out strong, lumbering through the first few floors on his feet, then started to hunch over, shedding his shoes (which were more like arid foot traps now). When he made it to the mid-section of the tower floors, he was almost crawling, discarding his shirt.]

[After he'd exhausted his search for water and cold, one could find Gamzee Makara on the lower floors, clad only in his polka-dotted briefs, laying face-down on the floor, or perhaps harassing others with heatstroke-induced psychobabble. Come talk to the naked crazy alien. There is a chance of him dropping his drawers, so be warned.]


Autumn (Dorm Floor)

[DID SOMEONE SAY LEAVES? BECAUSE HE THINKS HE HEARD SOMEONE SAY LEAVES.]

[Prepare to have the ever-loving shit annoyed out of you, because Gamzee has spent good chunk of time collecting as many leaves as he can, assembling them in the first-floor dorm hallway (he likes doing shit there - it pisses the maximum amount of people off) and creating a huge blockade. Want to get through? Too fucking bad. Don't even think about trying to destroy this gargantuan thing, because he'll throw you in there and you're not going to come out.]

[Want to jump in it? Let's do business.]


Winter (Any Floor)

[SMACK!]

[There's an snowball at the back of your head. Gamzee is no stranger to snowballs, but never before has he had the chance to chuck them at actual, living people. He plays to injure, just like that snot-nosed kid everyone had at their elementary school, so you bet your ass these are going to be packed tight, or jammed with icicles, or, hell, he might even just throw a big chunk of ice at you.]

[When he gets tired of that, he'll try to make a snowman. Spoilers, it sucks ass. It's probably the ugliest, piece of shit snowman anyone has ever seen. Please help him.]

[Aaand, after he realizes that this shit is making his hands painful, his already low body temperature will start to drop further, restricting his movement. He's got on all the clothes he owns (which isn't much - two shirts, a jacket, scarf and hat, pants and ratty shoes without socks), and he's still not looking good. Curled up in the snow, his last resort is piling it on top of himself to insulate his almost-nonexistent body heat. If he doesn't warm up, he will die.]

LEEEEEEAVES

[...Are you kidding?]

[You have to be fucking kidding.]

[Have one extremely linefacey Equius staring at this goddamn pile of leaves. It was bad enough that they were lying around in the corners, but a giant wall of dead plant matter? Seriously? Quietly he wished that he was the Breath player for once, instead of Nepeta, just because it would make his life so much easier trying to clear the damn things.]

[Sighing quietly, Equius walked over to the side, hoping that it would be smaller over there.]

this icon is pretty much going to be Equius' face for the entire thread

[personal profile] geometry 2013-03-21 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[Equius looked up. He then opened his mouth to suggest that Gamzee fuck right off (exact words), but strangely, something else came out instead.]

What is it?
geometry: <lj user=murkrows> (Yeah no ♐ Life is silent.)

[personal profile] geometry 2013-03-21 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well, there's a bigass laser rifle in his hand, for one thing.]

[But instead, he shrugs.]
Nothing, really.
geometry: <lj user=murkrows> (Explain ♐ 'cause it's always there.)

[personal profile] geometry 2013-03-21 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
What is even the point of this.

[He would at least try to present it as a question, but that would require effort, a precious commodity not worth wasting on this dipshit.]
geometry: <lj user=murkrows> (Archer ♐ waiting patiently.)

[personal profile] geometry 2013-03-21 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd love to, except for the minor issue that my dorm is on the other side.
geometry: <lj user=murkrows> (Explain ♐ 'cause it's always there.)

[personal profile] geometry 2013-03-21 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[That... is exactly what this is. And so, as calmly as possible, as if he were talking about the weather:]

I'll pay you with a blast to the face.
geometry: <lj user=murkrows> (Archer ♐ waiting patiently.)

[personal profile] geometry 2013-03-21 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
...I'm not going to sleep in that. It's disgusting.

[But of course Gamzee would not understand the nuances of the concept. Or, indeed, the concept at all. He sighs, and tries again, but his attempt at being level-headed has a few holes.]

Look, can we not do this right now? I go by, you continue being the goblin under the bridge, and nobody gets shot. Okay?
geometry: <lj user=murkrows> (Yeah no ♐ Life is silent.)

[personal profile] geometry 2013-03-22 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
That's bullshit. You'd be treating me the same way no matter what I did.

[ :I ]
geometry: <lj user=murkrows> (Archer ♐ waiting patiently.)

[personal profile] geometry 2013-03-22 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
Only because you do first.

[Gonna keep staring him down, right in the eye.]
geometry: <lj user=murkrows> (Yeah no ♐ Life is silent.)

[personal profile] geometry 2013-03-22 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
[In response, an expression of utmost disgust. The eyelashes. What are you even trying to do with those, Makara? Do you know where you are?]



Get out of the way.
geometry: <lj user=murkrows> (Archer ♐ waiting patiently.)

[personal profile] geometry 2013-03-22 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
I'm reasonably sure I said it already, but in case you didn't hear the first time, get out of the way.
geometry: <lj user=murkrows> (Yeah no ♐ Life is silent.)

[personal profile] geometry 2013-03-22 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
It's kind of the easiest way to go about it, though, isn't it?

[Fighting is so much work. It's autumn, it's cold, there are friggin' leaves everywhere, Equius Does Not want to Deal with this.]
geometry: <lj user=murkrows> (Default)

[personal profile] geometry 2013-03-22 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
[...Okay.]

[Deep breaths, Zahhak.]


Right. One. I'm not a gangster of any kind.

Two. This is literally the worst olive branch I have ever seen.

Three. I have half a mind to blast both you and this goddamn pile of leaves into ashes.

Four. Get the fuck out of my way.

[He doesn't anticipate this is going to work at all, but at least no one can say he never gave this shithead fair warning.]

YOU WIN THIS ROUND... SHITHEAD.
