That's my guess.

[What else but the ancient art of defying logic could make a place like this? Or a place like the Tower?]

Really stupid magic...

[The disorientating environment was making her feel nauseous so she just settles for laying on the floor and complaining]

[personal profile] mutab1e 2012-06-06 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
No, it's-- it's interesting actually, I guess, that you could make all of this happen in living space, because it's not even supposed to exist at all. Like, at all. I mean, the walls, they all had right angles for the corners, did you see that? But there were... ten corners I think, ten corners of ninety degrees, that's not supposed to be physically possible, you'd need to have at least twelve...

[And here he goes, babbling about math again. Someone shut him up before he starts rattling off formulas.]
wrigurun: (Irritated → IN)

[personal profile] wrigurun 2012-06-06 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)
It's magic

It's stupid and the room is round and you're stupid.

[Well, not really. Actually he sounds pretty smart to her, using big words and being very knowledgeable about corners but the room is putting her in a bad mood. It's just being bratty for the sake of being bratty]
mutab1e: <lj user=murkrows> (♐ bwuh)

[personal profile] mutab1e 2012-06-07 12:17 am (UTC)(link)
But-- [He's just about to respond to the 'room is round' comment, but her next one stops him.] ...Sorry.

[And he kind of scoots away from the wall, but away from Wriggle as well, because he swears that that thing is pulsing.]
wrigurun: (Huh? → IotMaIotE)

[personal profile] wrigurun 2012-06-07 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
Wait...

[She bolts up with a start, only to keel over. That was a bit too much for this kind of environment. Carefully glancing around the room she can see that he was in fact right, there were corners. But she was also right, it was a round room...]

How many corners is a circle supposed to have?

[He cringes when she fails to keep herself straight, and kind of half-reaches an arm for her before pulling it back, but answers anyway.] N-none, every point is supposed to be an equal distance from the center...
wrigurun: (Cry baby → Doujin)

[personal profile] wrigurun 2012-06-07 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
This is stupid!

This is a dumb room and it can't decide what it wants to be!

[Wriggle half rolls around whining on the floor. That's the only thing she's orientated enough to do. She'll probably rationalize things and act a bit more maturely in a while but for now...]
mutab1e: <lj user=murkrows>; art from tumblr (♐ run)

[personal profile] mutab1e 2012-06-07 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
Um.

Hey, er...

[Look, he doesn't know how to deal with tantrums, okay. He has massive panic attacks on a regular basis. So he's just going to kind of... sit there pathetically, and watch her scoot around for a little bit. What do you do when someone's having a fit like this? What do you even do?]
wrigurun: (Cry baby → Doujin)

[personal profile] wrigurun 2012-06-08 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[After a while she seems to work most of it out of her system and lays on her front occasionally kicking her feet]

This isn't going to be like...

We're not going to live her from now on are we?

I miss Gensoukyou!
mutab1e: <lj user=murkrows>; art from tumblr (♐ um. what)

[personal profile] mutab1e 2012-06-09 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
No, I... I don't think so. They'll have to let us go back to the regular Tower eventually... whenever things like these happened in the past, um, they took us back...

[Always after he died, of course, but he's not telling Wriggle that. He begins groping around for any topic of conversation that could take her attention off this little temper tantrum.]

Um, I don't think I got your name...?
wrigurun: (Huh? → IotMaIotE)

[personal profile] wrigurun 2012-06-09 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
They've happened in the past?

[She rolls over onto her back and looks up at him but the room only makes it all the more disorientating and she rolls back over]

Wriggle. My name's Wriggle.

Who are you?
mutab1e: <lj user=murkrows> (♐ curious)

[personal profile] mutab1e 2012-06-09 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, they've taken us out before. [So she must be new, to not know about any of the... shenanigans that go on in this tower.]

My name is Equius. Um, a pleasure, Wriggle.
wrigurun: (Groan → IotMaIotE)

[personal profile] wrigurun 2012-06-09 03:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Equius... that's a weird name.

Is the tower your home? Or do you have another home like me?
mutab1e: <lj user=murkrows>; art from tumblr (♐ um. what)

[personal profile] mutab1e 2012-06-09 06:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[Equius rolls a billion-sided die to determine whether he will actually succeed in standing up for himself. Chance of success: 1.]

...Um, sorry. It's the one I'm used to.

[Action failed.]

Yes, I came from another world. Everyone here did, except the people you saw before, the administrators... they've always been here, I think.
wrigurun: (Groan → IotMaIotE)

[personal profile] wrigurun 2012-06-09 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Really?

No wonder there are so many weird people in this place...
mutab1e: <lj user=murkrows> (♐ yeah about that)

[personal profile] mutab1e 2012-06-09 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
...Well, you know, where I come from, you would be 'weird' too. Humans are bad enough, but not all humans have... erm... antennae. [He peers at them curiously.]
wrigurun: (Irritated → IN)

[personal profile] wrigurun 2012-06-09 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[She just frowns at him]

I'm not a human, I'm a firefly youkai.

And what are you meant to be? Some kind of weird oni?
mutab1e: <lj user=murkrows> (♐ lost)

[personal profile] mutab1e 2012-06-09 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
...Oh.

[Welp.]

Um, no, not an oni. I'm a troll.
wrigurun: (Huh? → IotMaIotE)

[personal profile] wrigurun 2012-06-09 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
...

I don't think we have trolls where I come from. Your world must be really different.
mutab1e: (Default)

[personal profile] mutab1e 2012-06-09 10:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Nor do we have... 'firefly youkai'. [He pauses to ensure he doesn't stumble over the pronunciation.]

Your world is called... erm, Gensoukyou, right? If you've never seen a troll, then it probably hasn't been conquered by the Empire. ...Um, the Alternian Empire, that is. Alternia is my home world.
wrigurun: (Face away → IotMaIotE)

[personal profile] wrigurun 2012-06-10 09:44 am (UTC)(link)
Never heard of it...

I guess it's part of the outside world.
mutab1e: <lj user=murkrows>; art from tumblr (♐ working it out)

[personal profile] mutab1e 2012-06-10 02:36 pm (UTC)(link)
If you've truly never heard of it, it's probably farther than that.
wrigurun: (Huh? → IotMaIotE)

[personal profile] wrigurun 2012-06-10 03:52 pm (UTC)(link)
What's that supposed to mean?
mutab1e: <lj user=murkrows>; art from tumblr (♐ working it out)

[personal profile] mutab1e 2012-06-10 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Um, the empire I come from has a massive number of worlds they have conquered. That's why they're an empire. They... just do that, really. And trolls populate all of those worlds along with the natives. So if you don't recognize my species, um, I'd think it's safe to assume that your world is nowhere near mine, right?
