The Laziest Diety

[lightofhumanity]

Characters: chaos and you!
Setting: All around the Tower, as chaos wanders around and learns about this place.
Format: Prose or action. I can go with either.
Summary: chaos wakes up and tries to learn about this new place.
Warnings: None that I can think of for the moment.

Dorm Room 3-06 and the surrounding floor:

chaos woke up with a yawn and rubbed his eyes. He liked to sleep, but he didn't think he'd pass out immediately after saving-chaos's train of thought was interrupted as he sat up and took in his surroundings. This was not the bottom of the Elsa. And he had an odd collar on his neck. However, he didn't panic. There had to be an explanation for this, even if it was weird that he passed out without realizing it and had a collar on his neck. He got up and noticed two letters on his nightstand. He read them both, and while one detailed the layout and some of the things in this place, the other letter had to be lying. If the Lower Domain was destroyed, than he'd be destroyed along with it. Since he was alive, this note was a lie.

Noticing a chest at the bottom of his bed, chaos opened it. Inside was a bodysuit, some gloves, a Bunnie plush, a notebook, a box of curry mix, and..Alice In Wonderland. Despite the situation, chaos smiled. It had been quite a long time since he'd seen a book. Since his dorm room was empty, chaos wandered out, wondering if he'd see the Elsa crew soon, or someone familiar. He'd also need to eat something-which he technically didn't have to eat, it was an enjoyable experience-and find out more about this place.

Cafeteria:

When chaos wandered into the cafeteria and sat down, a person wearing a red collar put a bowl of oatmeal in front of him before wandering off. chaos could tell that the person wasn't human and guessed that it was a robot or a Realian of sorts. People that were like him usually stayed and talked. While the oatmeal wasn't that tasty, chaos had eaten worse in his long lifetime. Besides, human or not, it would be a little rude to not to eat it when it was offered.

Library (Third Floor):

While chaos was a little sad to see that the history sections had been pulled, he was happy to see that there were so many books. It was a welcome sight after so long. However, as chaos looked through the shelves, he wondered who had pulled them. Who was controlling this tower? That's what chaos thought this place was, from the looks of things.

Comments

The Library

[marchwarden]

[ An uncharacteristic yawn escaped the march warden as he placed the book down upon the table beside him. On a usual day, Haldir could always be found here amongst these tall towering shelves of books. The library, much like the meadow, was one of the few places here in the tower that he honestly enjoys. If he wasn't either carving wooden figurines or testing his sword arm, Haldir could always be found here in the library.

However, today it would seem that fatigue has overwhelmed his love for books today. The elf sleepily rubbed his eyes, trying in vain to stay awake long enough to read another chapter. It's rather uncommon for elves to need sleep at all but after literally staying awake for about a full week, Haldir was about to crash.

Picking up the book again, another loud yawn escaped him. ]

The Library

[lightofhumanity]

[As chaos wandered through the shelves, flipping through titles and thinking, he sensed something behind a corner. It wasn't a Realian or a Gnosis, but it wasn't quite human either. chaos cautiously walked towards that corner, only to catch a man in mid-yawn. At least, what looked a little bit like a man. The ears were different, and he felt different.

However, human or not, the person was trying to read a book, but was obviously exhausted. chaos smiled and spoke.]

You really should get some rest. While a good book is nice, you're exhausted. Not sleeping in awhile isn't good for you.

[marchwarden]

[ The elf blinked his eyes curiously once he heard the unasked advice. His gaze shifted away from the book he was reading and over towards the strange white-haired boy nearby. ]

Was I truly yawning that loudly?

[ Haldir asked with a hint of embarrassment in his tone. ]

My apologies.

[lightofhumanity]

Oh, don't worry about it. You weren't yawning that loudly. It's just not good to read when you're about to fall asleep. You won't remember anything like that, and that would be a waste. [Since chaos hasn't seen actual physical books in awhile, he thinks that falling asleep while trying to read them would be a shame.]

Besides, if you're not feeling well, you really should get some rest.

Cafeteria

[kosmic_angel]

[KOS-MOS herself didn't need to eat, never would. So she was free of the burden of eating oatmeal. However, her sensors picked up a familiar lifesign, odd though it was. She walked as silently as possible down each floor until there, clicking heels being the only warning that she was entering the room.

She kept her visor up now, finding that people approached her more easily without it and asked fewer questions, and then she looked towards chaos. If she was surprised (she wasn't) there was no way of telling.]

Cafeteria

[lightofhumanity]

[As chaos ate, he sensed KOS-MOS walking down the stairs and into the cafeteria. So he wasn't alone here. While it was odd that he had no idea what was going on here, there was a chance that KOS-MOS would.

So, he looked at her and smiled.]

Good morning, KOS-MOS. It's nice to see you here. Do you know where this tower is or what planet we're on? And where is everyone else?

Re: Cafeteria

[kosmic_angel]

Good morning, chaos.

[Came her typically flat voice and she closed the distance left between them. She didn't sit down, there really was no reason for her to, and shook her head.]

It is not possible to determine the location of the tower in reference to known planets in the Galaxy Federation.

As of now, there are only two other people here: Allen Ridgely and Wilhelm. There's is not currently enough data to determine the location of the crew of the Elsa or our companions.

Re: Cafeteria

[lightofhumanity]

[chaos nodded, and in his head, he sighed. Allen being here wasn't bad..but it was worrisome that Shion and the others weren't there. Wilhelm..while chaos had mixed feelings about him being here, he knew that he could go to him for answers, if that proved necessary, which it might.]

I see. I wonder where we are then..(chaos paused for a moment, lost in thought.] I see. Do you know anything about who runs this tower? Or who put these collars on our necks?

The Library

[badend_replay]

"Have you found anything good?"

Rika observed chaos from a distance. Her gaze careful, calculating. She knew a thing or two now about being careful about what kinds of friends you made. In these strange worlds, where you were stuck in a personal hellhole, it was important.

"Any good books, sir?"

The Library

[lightofhumanity]

chaos turned around when he heard a voice behind him. He smiled, sensing that she had an inhuman power too, even though it was small..and..someone else in there as well. However, he didn't say anything about it.

"I see quite a few good books. This is rather nostalgic, to be honest. We didn't have physical books back in our universe." While chaos didn't normally talk about his past, that small piece of information should be harmless.

The Library

[badend_replay]

"There were not many books of interest in Mayfield either. It is a relief to be able to read books on real material again." She spoke softly, her gaze tracing the titles printed on some of the spines. Books that did not tell her to be a perfect wife were refreshing. "It must feel good to have pages under your fingers. I cannot imagine something as sad as that."

The Library

[lightofhumanity]

"It is nice to see all these books here. You rarely ever saw them back in my universe." Mayfield...was that the world she was in before this? Not willing to comment on whether or not losing books made him sad, chaos instead pulled a collection of fairy tales off the shelf. They were all stories he had read before..but there was no harm in reading them for the nostalgia value.

The Cafeteria

[ceasetoexist]

Seated just a bit away from chaos is a portly thirteen year old, just recently arrived himself. To say he's staring into his bowl of oatmeal wouldn't be quite accurate; it's more like he's glaring at it, as if there's some underlying hatred he has for it. He dips his spoon in and takes it out, just staring at disgust at the oatmeal as he lets it drip off his spoon.

He does this a few times before noticing the teen a little ways across from him. And stares for a moment before he goes back to watching the oatmeal drip off his spoon.

After he goes about this chore once or twice more he finally loads the spoon up with oatmeal and, instead of letting it drip off, tilts it back to try and fire the glob at chaos.

Head's up.

Re: The Cafeteria

[lightofhumanity]

chaos, who had sensed the boy, hadn't paid much attention to him, as he didn't want to bother the boy. Plus, he seemed rather annoyed about the oatmeal for some reason. So chaos ate his oatmeal in peace.

Until the boy decided to hurl some of his food at chaos. chaos, who had fought in many, many battles, and was very fast, blocked the glob with his spoon. It then fell on the table, a danger to no one. chaos then grinned.

"You shouldn't pull pranks like that. I'm fine with it, but I don't think most people would let you off the hook without a lecture or a scolding. It's also a waste of perfectly good food."

[ceasetoexist]

Well, that was kind of cool he guessed, but Pokey wouldn't show it. The boy just shrugs his shoulders and goes back to staring at the bowl.

"They want to, they can. I don't really care.

The food even being here is a waste of "good" food. There's no point to any of this crap."

[lightofhumanity]

"You should. Being scolded or punished usually isn't fun for most children..and some people may even hurt you."

People were known to smack small children if they thought they were being brats. However, chaos paused when he mentioned the food. He didn't think it was as bad as some of the other things he had eaten, that was because he was chaos. This was a human boy who looked like he ate delicious things on a regular basis.

"Well, to me it's not that bad. I can see why you wouldn't enjoy it though. Maybe if you add some pepper to it, it will taste better. And there is point to this dish."

[Cafeteria]

[littlelifeforms]

[ chaos may soon see an android passing by. However this android was obviously of a much more ancient and less advanced design than KOS-MOS. Data first looked at the red-collared drone that gave his bowl of oatmeal to chaos, his eyes following the drone until he was out of sight.

Then data turned at chaos and observed as he tasted his oatmeal, sometimes tilting his head to the side. After all, Data couldn't tell whether the oatmeal was good or not. ]

[Cafeteria]

[lightofhumanity]

[chaos noticed someone watching him, and by his senses, it was a robot. It wasn't as advanced as the things he had seen, but it was still a robot. Since it was watching him, chaos thought he might want to chat.]

Good morning. How are you?

[Cafeteria]

[littlelifeforms]

Good morning. I am functioning within normal parameter, thank you.

[ He nods as an answer and look at the oatmeal. ]

Is this oatmeal "good"?

Library - How did I just notice this...

[oforder]

[ chaos would be greeted by familiar-sounding music as he moved into one of the darker corners of the library, well out of the way in the labyrinthine rows of books. There was a chair faced towards one of the windows, along with a couch, a table, a small pile of philosophy books, and a very familiar device seated next to him. Both arms of the Compass were now moving, when before, only one had. ]

Yeshua.

[ Wilhelm's voice came from the chair, as it slowly rotated to face him. He was seated upright, with proper posture, a glass of wine in his hand. Despite Wilhelm almost never showing any kind of emotion, someone like chaos could likely read his body language better than almost anyone else can. He looked... relieved. ]

The Administrators had sense, after all.

Library: I have no idea..

[lightofhumanity]

[chaos nodded as a greeting. Not too many words were needed with Wilhelm-after six thousand years together, their body language was easy to make out. At least, to each other.]

Wilhelm. You must have been here for quite some time then. It seems, despite the stories, that Administrators have some interest in keeping our universe alive.

I have already met KOS-MOS here. Tell me..did anyone else arrive?

Library: I'm sorry. :c

[oforder]

[ Wilhelm takes a sip of the wine, nodding as chaos spoke. He then set the wine down, near the now fully-functional Compass; though, as he expected, he still can't predict the actions of the Administrators. He'll have to predict them the old fashioned way. But first, he has to learn about them. ]

Allen is here. Although, he is from a previous Recurrence of the universe. You will understand what I mean when you meet him.

[ Wilhelm motions to the seat in front of his makeshift desk. ]

What is the last thing that happened in our world before you arrived here?

Library-I am also late DX

[temptestament]

Of course Allen knew Yeshua was back in the Tower. It would have been impossible to miss the sudden appearance of such a strong and unique power. But approaching him...that was a little trickier, since he doubted this was the one he knew. And he could never be sure what Wilhelm would explain himself and what he would leave for him to explain.

But when he found the elder immortal in the library, well...he might as well approach, since he didn't have to go out of his way to find him.

So with surprisingly quiet footsteps for the boots he was wearing and his mask off, Allen approached with what he hoped was a fairly casual air.

"I wasn't expecting you to show up again. It's...ah...good to see you, Yeshua."

It's alright! Don't sweat it! ^^

[lightofhumanity]

Normally, chaos would have been happy to see Allen. He still was..but not as much as he would have been. Allen, dressed in Testaments clothes, calling him Yeshua, and..feeling like a Testament...so this was how this Allen differed from the one he knew. In his head, he sighed.

"It's nice to see you again, Allen. But I'm sad to say that I'm not the one from your universe. Tell me..how did this come to pass?"

[temptestament]

"I'm not surprised. Nobody I've recognized here has been."

He ran a hand through his hair, ignoring his hood as it fell down, and sighed.

"That's...a bit of a long story. Am I right to guess that Kevin's a Testament where you come from?"
