006 ♃ i'll be the one to protect you from your enemies and all your demons

Characters: Sheba, Felix, and anyone they happen to encounter!
Setting: Beginning in Felix's room (03-12), and then continuing on to the cafeteria (1st floor), the aquarium (10th floor), the music room (28th floor), and the beach (62nd floor).
Format: Action, if only for the sake of responding quickly. /nodnod If you'd really prefer another format, we can match!
Summary: Ever since hearing that strange sound from those oddly-shaped tape recorders, Sheba's had the strangest feeling that she needs to go keep an eye on Felix... and that she needs to make it absolutely clear to the others in the Tower that Felix is under her protection. Forcible dragging of a Venus Adept soon commences.
Warnings: This thread has the potential to get really creepy really fast, depending on how the effects from the tape recorders play out. Also, the tape recorder Sheba hears will cause her to slowly shift into the "Oh, Felix! <3" kind of mindset fandumb seems to think she has by default, so I apologize for that. I'll edit this as more specifics pop up. | NOTE: Though Felix and Sheba will default to responding to whoever tags in together, if your character wants to talk to just one of them at a time that's fine - just indicate it in your comment with "Felix only" or "Sheba only"! (Also there may be a few hours where I don't respond at all because I'll be afk tonight so feel free to pretend Sheba's in the background and just interact with Felix once I leave; Sheba will jump back in when I return!)

[Room 03-12; Closed to Felix]
Felix!

[It probably wasn't strange to see Sheba outside of Felix's room anymore; she did have a way of just inviting herself over. So there was nothing outwardly wrong with Sheba knocking on the door, really. She couldn't really explain why the urge to go check on him was so strong... it just was. Friends worried about their friends' safety, right?]

Are you in there right now? It's me, Sheba!

[Floor 01; Open]
[The first stop after collecting Felix is the cafeteria. It's important to get enough to eat, after all! It would be much harder to keep Felix safe if he was hungry and got distracted, or if she was too distracted to look out for him... heaven forbid that should ever happen.

She quickly scans the cafeteria to make sure it's safe before she pulls him in. It wasn't empty - that was good, because if they ran into the right people she would be able to tell them what they needed to know. But it wasn't so full that it would be dangerous either.]


What do you feel like eating? I can go get it!

[She's all smiles - maybe she's just in a good mood today?]

[Floor 10; Open]
[After eating, it was always good to take some time to relax. Sheba has, once again, taken Felix by the hand to lead him up the stairs, and soon enough they find themselves on the floor with the aquarium.

She knew he liked dolphins... hopefully there would be some here.]


I've been up here a few times already, but it keeps surprising me how impressive this all is.

[She lets go of his hand to gesture at the aquatic creatures within the suspended "tanks" of water.]

It's nice of the Administrators to give us a place like this, I guess... You like this floor, don't you?

[Her expression is a little anxious, like she's looking for his approval.]

[Floor 28; Open]
[The search for other people and other places has finally brought Sheba and Felix to the music room. As they walk inside, Sheba lets go of Felix's hand after a moment or two's hesitation, then walks to a harp that looks to be about as big as she is.

She kneels down next to it and hesitantly plucks at one of the strings.]


Do you know how to play any of these things, Felix? I never learned... I always thought it would have been nice to, though.

[She tilts her head to the side, evidently considering something.]

I heard people usually like it when people play music for them... do you think that's true? Would you like to hear someone play for you?

[Floor 62; Open]
[Finally, they come to the beach. This time Sheba doesn't let go of Felix's hand as they step out onto the floor - in fact, her grip is a little tighter than before, like she's almost afraid to be separated from him... or afraid that he'll just go.

Oh, what was she thinking? These floors were dangerous. Maybe she should just have taken him back up to his room... the monsters didn't go there, did they?

No, she reminded herself, But Allen is in that room. I saw his name on the door... Something could happen. What if he was up there and the Fourteenth Noah emerged? Felix is safer when he's with me.

With that thought in mind, she led him out towards the water.]


It's pretty, don't you think? I'm not sure how they do all this. But... it's nice to be able to see the ocean again.
