[OPEN] I want, I want to finally meet you, something real to cling to

Characters: Darkleer and YOU!
Setting: Room 1-18, the Cafeteria, the Workshop, around the Tower.
Format: I'll start with Action, but I'll match you.
Summary: Darkleer wakes up in an unusual place and goes about trying to find it in himself to care.
Warnings: Darkleer being a painfully polite, looming giant that keeps banging his horns into the ceiling.

[Lying back is awkward and a little unnatural for him. The bed creeks unpleasantly under his weight, as he looks around, frown deepening as he took stock of the unfamiliar surroundings as well as the strange white fabric on his skin. The collar causes a spam of annoyance that takes him five deep breaths to control, so by the time he's reading the letters, he finds himself more or less serene. Suspicious and more than a little indifferent, but serene. He explores the contents of his trunk, finding more relief in his wrench and his work rag, than the clothes or the armor or the bow. Though admittedly the bow and the arrows are a nice thing to have. After some considerations, he simply rips the white bodysuit off his person and proceeds to don the armor. If he was given weapons, it might have been for a reason.

So if you walk into 1-18, you will find him giving the final adjustments to the armor, quiver hanging off a belt to his side and Bow hooked on a leather strap on his back. And of course, the familiar, glowing helmet that obscures his eyes. He's slouching a little, as his horns almost scrape the ceiling when he stands up to his full height. He's wearing a fantastically puzzled expression, but hey, for all he's big, he doesn't seem particularly violent.]

--

[When you enter the cafeteria, you will find Darkleer in a corner, in full battle armor and with a look of supreme confusion on his face as he has a very serious stare off with a plate of oatmeal. It's a fantastic stare off, mind, he's slouching forward, hair curling down his shoulders and mouth set into an unamused, thin line. Seriously, oatmeal? Really?]

--

[When he finds this floor, he finds himself drawn in almost magnetically. His fingers twitch to take and test and make and create, but he contains himself for a while, studying the racks of tools and materials. He resists for a while longer, but eventually picks up a bit of this and that, before unloading a collection of random spare parts and metal and tools on a workbench. Carefully placing down the bow and the quiver, he sets to fiddle with them, not really sure what he's doing except fitting them together and pulling them apart. He relaxes visibly the longer he's at work, and before he realizes it, he's working on something that looks definitely arm-shaped.]

--

[Not sure why he shouldn't, and not feeling particularly threatened, Darkleer wanders around the Tower, looking at the various floor and peering curiously at the strange, foreign things in every corner. The supremely confused look remains firmly in place, but once again, it's not necessarily hostile. Just. Kind of intimidating.]

[Lost in her own thoughts Kanaya had been bringing some supplies back from making herself a small workspace to sew on when she sees him at the workbench....and promptly drops half of what she was carrying out of surprise. Either Equius had hit an alarming growth spurt or there was another adult troll in the Tower.]

[Oh. Oh my. That's... very large. Catarina stopped for a second, taken a bit aback. She had not seen anyone so large before, and it pinged her senses something bad. This person could be very bad for her.]

[Or very good. It wasn't as if she had a very large supply of people she knew wouldn't stab her just for being a demon to feed off of. But still... She took a step backwards, her eyes locked on his form]

You are... a troll, are you not? [Stick with something she knew. From the description that one person had given her, that was a safe bet]

HI I LIKE LONG TAGS, don't hit me!

[Signless, still mourning the loss of himself and those close to him, has decided to venture out into the cafeteria. He found himself not enjoying the simple pleasure of food as of recent, but given that his mate was one of a constant pester. He figures perhaps he should try and stomach some food or at least some water.

Upon entering the room, he freezes for a moment and he instantly feels the presence of another. His head turns in the direction of the brute. A high blood from his universe and one to be wary of at that. He was a deer caught in headlights as he tried to think of a plan of action. He could either A. proceed with caution and get his water or B. turn around slowly and kick in survival mode. Then again, considering a third option of: we are both stuck here, he really can't do anything and we are now equals, thus I should proceed as normal. Besides...maybe he needs help adjusting to his new setting and Signless couldn't turn that down. This option proved better to him. Of course he would still play it on the careful side. After all, high bloods usually didn't take kindly to him.

He steps forward and passes up the troll. Heading to retrieve some water, before he sits down a tad distance away from the troll at the same table. He was being bold.]

A demon, if it means anything to you. [Keep it simple. She didn't want to get into her parentage right now anyway]

You're... quite large.

[Carefully, her hand reached out. Large things usually were more powerful. She nearly let out a snort at that thought. Large? Anything nonhuman was usually more powerful than her. Caution was what kept her alive. Slowly, very slowly, she lifted her hand to his cheek, ready to snatch it back if he made a move to grab it]

I... apologize. I've just never seen a large troll like yourself before. How did you get so large?
fashionfairy: (Kanaya ~Uncertainty In Response)

[personal profile] fashionfairy 2012-10-05 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
[Embarrassed, she stoops to gather what fell.]

My apologies, I'm afraid I wasn't expecting anyone else to be here. Are you new here? I don't believe I've seen you here before.

[The best way to approach a new person is to be polite, correct? Even if said new person is unexpectedly tall.]

There are trolls larger than you. [Said in an "oh fuck" tone. Catarina put her hand to her mouth, thinking. She didn't know what made a troll more powerful than the last. He could be weak in comparison, and still be stronger than her. And he didn't seem to be swayed by her look either. Too alien for him? Oh, if he ended up not liking her, she would have to be faster than him...]
divinitysoiled: (Lounge)

[personal profile] divinitysoiled 2012-10-05 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
No, nothing's the matter. [She smiled at him, trying a confident pose and seductive smile] I've just never seen anything quite as... large as you. [Lie. But that was back when her world still existed]

[Equius screeches to a halt on the workshop floor long before he even catches sight of that arm.]

[So maybe he was planning to head down to the workshop and get a bit of work done. Well, what was the problem with that? He'd been doing it ever since first coming here. But the presence of something larger than him always seems to drive Equius to take caution, just in case it was an older troll -- and in this case, it was. A much older troll. Adult, by the looks of his body, and the horns were certainly long enough to reflect old age, tipped as they were by very pointed arrows--]

[--oh god.]

[This cannot be happening. This cannot he happening.]

[Just going to casually make a big fuss in his haste to get himself out of here. He didn't trip, like last time another Sagittaritroll had showed up in the Tower, but he certainly made enough noise to alert any sensible creature to his presence.]

[Oh man. Oh god. Oh man.]

[Words are one of the few things she is completely at ease with. Just wait until she's actually familiar with him and he'll see.]

Kanaya Maryam. I haven't been here for very long myself but I believe I would have noticed you before.

[She busies herself putting away the supplies, using it as an excuse to compose herself.]
geometry: <lj user=murkrows> (> Equius: Run.)

[personal profile] geometry 2012-10-05 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
[Wait. Okay, o-kay-o-shit. Waiting.]

[Slowly, as if to make clear that he means no harm, Equius pulls himself up to a semi-respectable standing position. It's only semi-respectable because, well, you never know with these highbloods, they all have their idea of what is too respectable or not respectable enough or... okay. He's completely overthinking this. He doesn't know how to deal with adults and he's not even gender-ambiguous or carrying a sentient sword. So sue him.]
