This is really all just crap timing, ain't it.

[xanthous]

Characters: The Psiioniic and yoouuuu.
Setting: Dormitory floor 4, and floor three, but if you want to run into him as he wanders, feel free!
Format: Either is good with me, but all the set up will be in brackets.
Summary: The Psiioniic is new, confused, and a little lost.
Warnings: Nothing at the moment!

[floor four]

[WELL. This is certainly not what he expected to wake up to. An odd room, some letters that make very little sense, a chest... There were squishy platforms for the others sharing the room with him, but nobody's there as he ventures out into the tower. Or, well, he doesn't notice anyone as he begins his journey.]


[floor three/the library]

[He's found books. Books are useful, even if he's never owned one. (So he might look way too fascinated by everything, but cut him some slack.) He's going through and picking out books from each section, staring intently at the covers as he goes through. He puts some back, but the rest float behind him, surrounding in a light that flashes between red and blue.]

Comments

Dormitory floor

[taiyoukai]

[There are three ways to piss off a daiyoukai: 1. Try to limit his freedom, like putting a collar on him. 2. Take him away from his land and his wards. 3. Lie to him, about the supposed end of the world.

Guess what? Upon waking up this morning, Sesshomaru was subjected to all three sure ways to piss off a daiyoukai. At the same time. Shortly after melting the letters with a judicious use of poison, he'd found his clothes and stalked out of the room, in search of those responsible for this nonsense. So by the time Psii gets out of the room, there's a very white and fluffy dog demon growling quietly at a computer terminal, squinting at it somewhat viciously. The fluffy pelt-like thing over his shoulders seems to be twitching ever so slightly, too.]

[xanthous]

[The twitching is what catches his attention. At first he thinks it was just a trick, something with the lighting or the odd feeling in this place. He watches Sesshomaru closely, and when the fluff twitches again, he makes a soft, surprised noise, and creeps closer to the man. What is that thing? And what's up with the color of his skin and hair? And his clothing. Those clothes are pretty strange.

He's not sure how to talk to the man. He has an authoritative air, and he's obviously irritated. Maybe Psii shouldn't talk to him. But then the fluff twitches again, and he can't help it.]

Do you need help...?

[taiyoukai]

[Psii doesn't make himself know by his voice, but by his smell. By the sound of his footsteps. By many things that alert Sesshomaru of his presence way before he voices anything. Sesshomaru ignores him until he speaks, at which points the daiyoukai takes a moment to slowly turn and give the troll a scathing, withering glare.]

[xanthous]

[Rude.

He tilts his head, brows furrowing.]

That...ithn't really a quethtion that maketh people angry.

Library

[alephbet]

[That's attention-getting.]

What is that? Those lights.

[xanthous]

[And so shiny.

He looks behind him for a moment, before turning to Aleph.]

They are...[uh. how does he explain this.] A thideffect of my abilitieth?

[alephbet]

That's some kind of telekinesis, right?

[Judging by the floating books, it isn't too hard a guess. Aleph leans a little closer over the back of his chair.]

[xanthous]

[A nod.]

I believe tho?

[He's never heard the word before. He had a really, really basid school feeding.]

Floor 3

[tohko_amano]

[Tohko had seen a lot of interesting things while working in the library, but the sight of books floating behind someone was odd, even for her. However, this amazed and interested her, so, she turned to the person that the books were floating behind.]

Erm..pardon me, but how are those books floating behind you?

[xanthous]

[Why is everyone here so weirdly colored? It's unnerving.]

My mutant brain.

[It's true, and he really doesn't know any other way to describe it.]

It'th thome thtupid ability common for my cathte.

[tohko_amano]

[Tohko smiled and nodded when she heard that.]

It's not a stupid ability! That's actually pretty cool! Things like that only exist in stories back in my universe, so things like this are pretty amazing, even now.

[xanthous]

[!!]

They tell thtorieth about thith thort of thingth? Are they... nithe thtorieth?

dorm halls

[swordofzero]

[Suzaku was just leaving his room when he saw a very familiar figure begin walking down the hall.] Psi! [His voice was light, not quite happy but more... hopeful than it usually was.

For a moment his face had softened, though he didn't smile. But then he remembered where he was, and that the odds of this Psiioniic being his Psi were very low indeed. That just like the Signless that had come here weeks after his roommates had disappeared he would not know him, and indeed be wondering why some alien was talking to him as if they were acquainted.] I apologise.

[xanthous]

[Someone who knows his name? He's baffled, but he smiles at the alien. It's a cautious smile, but if he knows him and doesn't want to kill him, then they have to be a nice person, yeah?]

Why are you?

[It's obvious he doesn't recognize Suzaku, but he doesn't want to just flat out ask how he knows his name.]

[swordofzero]

[Don't know about nice person, but Suzaku definitely doesn't want to kill you Psiioniic, so don't worry.]

Why am I apologising? [Suzaku shrugged and looked down] I guess you are new? I was apologising for causing you undue confusion. [Very formal, trying to distance himself.]

[xanthous]

[Not killing is good enough for him.

He nods, trying to figure up what, exactly, is going on with this person, but he's never been good at reading body language.]

I am new, thir. [He scratches at the back of his head.] I really don't think that you've confuthed me more then I was to begin with.

[He'll get confused when he learns about a version of himself being there, though.]

Library!

[cullscuttlefish]

[Feferi's not normally one for the library, as a general rule, but she's a bit bored and is poking about the shelves. As she does, it's his shadow that catches her attention. A double set of horns? Sorry, Psii, she's not thinking of you first.]

Oh my glub, I missed you, Sollux --

[Whoops. Incoming hug. She really needs to learn to look at the person, not their shadow.]

[xanthous]

[Oh god oh god what what's going on why are people touching him.

After the initial wave of panic passes, he finally looks at who, exactly, is grabbing his person. He doesn't like what he sees all that much.

A seadweller. Oh god.

The panic is back and he goes stiff in Feferi's arms, glancing around for any sort of escape. She seems young, but that doesn't mean she's not vicious, that she won't punish a lowblood or that she won't try to enslave him again and that is the opposite of what he wants and why is she touching him he's going to die.

His life is over.

He is gone.]

Mith?

[cullscuttlefish]

Oh my cod, I'm so sorry, I thought you were a frond of mine, I wasn't thinking! Are you okay --

[...letting go would probably go a long way towards helping things, wouldn't it? Yeah, it probably would. Feferi holds her hands up, a sheepish expression on her face, as she takes a few steps back.]

-- I'm reely sorry about that.

also library

[papshooshing]

[ huddled in the corner is Karkat. he's taken to reading human psychology books. there's a nice stack to his left. a few others to his ride. but this stuff can be pretty boring.

no wonder he's fallen asleep, right? ]

[xanthous]

[Nubby horns. That's all he needs to see before making a beeline to Karkat, but when he gets next to the boy he can't help but frown. He seems...smaller then Signless. How could the troll have shrunk?

He prods at Karkat's shoulder. Nobody can sleep when there are questions that need answers.]

[papshooshing]

[ Karkat Vantas sleeps like a rock. This poking does nothing but make him growl irritably and furrow his brows. ]

Library

[iron_infidel]

[Signless had decided to peruse through the library this day. It wasn't really his style of course, being that the last time he was here him and Disciple had brushed up on interesting topics about human culture. The memory was painful given the recent departure of his mate. Sadness he had not the time for it. Though given the recent population of high bloods, he felt like laying low for a few days.

His concentration is broken for the moment as the movement of another draws it. He turns to glance in the direction of the disturbance and at the sight of the other...he is stunned. Slowly the older troll advances towards the other, quietly. He does not wish to startle him and besides maybe this was just another trick that the city was playing on him.]

[xanthous]

[He doesn't notice Signless at first, too busy rifling through the books on the shelves. He's thorough in the search, flipping through the pages and pausing if there's any illustrations. The shapes of the letters are strange, and he doesn't want to question why he can understand them.

He puts most of the books back, only one floating back to join the others behind him.]

[iron_infidel]

[Signless follows after him and casually picks up one of the books from the shelves. He has to chuckle softly to himself in amusement at such curiosity the other had. Deciding to speak up instead of playing follow the leader, he comes to clear his throat as to get the others attention.]

I never knew that you had such a well fined curiosity in reading, my old friend.

[He spoke to break the silence, but he found only silence followed as he held his breath, waiting for a response.]
