---------------------------------------
Characters: Guy Cecil and you
Setting: Alllllll over the place the whole week. Pick a mode, pick a floor, pick a date for this week, and pick whether you wish to die or not, basically!
Format: Action preferred, but I'll follow.
Summary: Sometimes Guy tries to patrol and do as he's been told. Sometimes he regains his clarity with a frightful realization. And sometimes snapping out of it just makes things so much worse
Warnings: Brainwashing, a bit of body horror, mental trauma, panic, and bloody bludgeoning with chains. A note: Guy's modifications can and WILL make him kill women, especially if you catch him while he's sane for too long.
DORMITORIES
[It was fine.
That was all he could think at times. All he was allowed to think. Everything was fine. The halls were to be patrolled. Messes were to be cleaned up. Those not compliant were to be dealt with harshly, whether citizen or drone. If one were to approach him, he could respond. But he would sound more like the general of an army than the Guy people might know. Those drones that have started to zone out, stand in corners or stalk citizens may be approached by the blonde.
The chains that burdened him - or, rather, SHOULD be burdening him - wrap around his torso and limbs, pulling painfully at his skin with their weight. The links of the chain are twisted with the bloody, mangled remains of a dozen or so women, all shoved into their links like a sadistic trophy collection. If he were even in his right mind, he would recognize this. But for now? His stride doesn't cease, movements slow but firm. He's simply doing his duty.
Everything is fine.]
SANITY - Dormitories, The Staircases, The Meadow, The Morgue, or take your pick
[And yet... there were times where things were definitely... not fine?
He'd shake his head, feeling as if he'd just woken up from a bad dream, wearily looking around... noticing the pull of the chain on his body, seeing the corpses, and panicking.
He might keep his mind long enough to find a familiar face - ANY familiar face - wandering the levels with wide and fearful eyes. He might simply seek a place of solitude to try and get his head back together - come on, come on, KEEP it together... or he might be searching for a way to remove the bodies and chains from his body, stepping into the morgue and wearily glancing through the tools...
Or he might just come up to anyone he can find, a painful plea in his eyes.]
Please... please, you have to help me...!
[One would just hope he doesn't zone out and suddenly ignore them... or worse.]
PANIC - ROOM 5-02, The Staircases, The Cathedral, The Poppy Field, The Lagoon, The Crystal Room, or take your pick
[And sometimes, it's just simply too much. He's SURROUNDED by women, DEAD women, blood and bone and muscle and the sound of metal against metal and he's trapped and he can't escape and no no no NO NO NO I'M SCARED...
It's the tricky thing about having a fear, especially one you don't understand. After a point, it controls you. And at times, it does so with Guy. He's drawn to corners, the edges of the stairs, the far wall of the cathedral, curled up on himself with chains as a blanket, sometimes silently shaking and sometimes...
Screaming.
Screaming and screaming and screaming, like a child being attacked by a monster, until his voice goes raw, not caring if the sound echoes through the building, not caring if the sound goes silent. Fingers digging into his scalp and forcing every last ounce of energy on a silent scream... sometimes, it's all he can manage to do.
He can't escape he can't escape he can't--
Someone could reach a hand out to help the poor man, or simply get him back on his feet and tell him to keep to his work. He may not be able to respond... or the response you may get is a heavy chain to the face, like a trapped animal lashing out.
He wasn't fine... oh Score he wasn't fine--]
((OOC NOTES:
- If you are in Groups C and D, Guy can and will command you to do various things.
- Guy is most prone to hunting down women when he is sane/panicking. Again, if your character does or does not wish to be killed, please note so in the subject line.))

no subject
... That, ah, does sound like something Jason would do. This... This may take a while, but I'll do my best to get them all off.
[And she grits her teeth as she reaches for one of the corpses, steeling her nerves as she tries to pull it off the chain.]
no subject
Guy visibly flinches back at the sound.]
J-j-just... aah, if you... if you c-c-can just.... just break the chain, just take it off that way...!
no subject
O-okay, okay, but you need to stay still. [She puts her hands on one of the chain links, channeling the electricity into the metal so that it will break. Or at least she hopes it does, since this is something the admins have done.]
no subject
A small voice in him suddenly scratches, yelling, screaming that no, no, that's MINE, don't take it away, LEAVE IT ALONE, and suddenly it's as if he's dozed off in his mind. Even as the the metal cracks cleanly, Guy's expression is clouding, the shaking in his body stopping, an icy blank stare settling onto April.]
no subject
And the stare is enough to make her shift back a bit more, now completely on guard. That really isn't a good sign, and she keeps the electricity flickering around her.] ... Guy? What's wrong?
no subject
[He slowly tucks his feet under him. rising to a standing position, the loss of the portion of one chain looking like an amputation off an octopus. He stares down the pieces, brow knitting tightly, before staring back at her.
...
And with an agility that shouldn't be possibly with the weight of his chains, Guy is suddenly advancing forward, blade drawn and swinging wide towards her.
He had to replace what was removed. He needed her.]
no subject
Guy, w-w-what're you doing?!
[April backs away from him even more, electricity flickering and crackling completely around her as if it were a protective shield.]
no subject
He simply stares her back down as an answer, examining the electricity as one would an annoying bug on the wall, advancing a little slower with blade to his side, taking the bulk of a chain in his other hand and grasping it firmly around his arm.]
...
I need a replacement.
no subject
A-and I'll break your chains before you can touch me with them.
[Though she wishes she would use her brain before speaking, but now she just watches him, waiting to see what he'll do.]
no subject
no subject
And even though panic starts to set in-get off of me, get off get off getawayfromme- she still manages to keep her powers under control and she concentrates all the electricity around her towards Guy. Though her desire to get away has briefly overrided her desire to not hurt him too badly.]
no subject
But even as he backs away, he doesn't let go - he can't, HE WON'T - and her arm is coming right down with him as he twists around the other direction, with a force enough to at least crack it, if not simply fracture it completely at the elbow.]
no subject
And this will be when Guy finds some of the chains suddenly wrapping around his arm, and they start to pull hard. She will make him let go, even if she has to break his arm too.]
no subject
For the moment, he crumples, his left arm completely useless, his right grappling for his sword again, thrusting it towards her legs haphazardly.]
no subject
And she'll be using this moment to get some distance between them, now giving herself a moment to think and breathe, the instinct to get away starting to die down. She dimly notices blood from her lip when she bit down to stop herself from screaming when he broke her arm, but she doesn't bother to wipe it away and instead focuses on Guy.]
... G-Guy, stop. This... This isn't you.
no subject
A sharp point, metal or otherwise, is all he needed. And with the cut of his blade, he easily finds one that fits the bill - it will be messy, but it will work.
Like clockwork he turns back to April, the pain on his face dimming in favor of the task: the thrill of the hunt, the glint in clouded eyes that spoke of the liquefying madness he'd endured in that surgery room.
Once again, he advances, the branch in his hand held with a firm grip and thrust forward, in an attempt to stab her hard wherever the point landed.]
no subject
So, she takes a breath to calm her nerves, before concentrating and thinking. He's using a branch now, and that can break with enough force; she's seen what lightning can do to trees and she's also done it herself a few times. It's easy enough to send a bolt of electricity towards it to break the branch cleanly down the middle, and it's also easy enough to move some of his chains to wrap up around his feet and legs.]
C'mon, Guy, you can snap out of this.
[At least, she's really hoping that he can.]
no subject
And all April will receive in return is a yell of rage.
Guy's clouded eyes now flash with a firey bite. He flips himself onto his stomach with a great deal of effort, now digging the fingers of his good arm into the dirt and using raw muscle and body strength to drag himself across the ground, even against the pressure of the metal threatening to pull his legs apart.
His eyes never leave her. He NEEDS her. NOW.]
no subject
... And this reminded her too much of encounters back home, with people so far gone that there was really one option left. And it scared her.
She really didn't want to do this, but there was no choice left. He was going to get injured to the point where even if he did snap out of it, this would all still not end well. But she has to be calm, she's done this before. That still doesn't stop her from shaking slightly as her vision turns faintly fuzzy, and it takes a fierce wipe at her eyes to clear it up.]
... I-I'm so sorry, Guy. I'm s-so, so sorry...
[Even if he probably couldn't even hear her now, she still has to say it. And she can make this quick, one powerful well-aimed bolt of electricity at him and that's it. So that's what she does.]
no subject
His name.
His...
There's a split second of clarity across his features - the Guy that April had spoken to when she first entered the meadow, scared and lost and confused - before his entire form starts to convulse violently. His eyes roll back, his mouth agape in a silent scream, not even realizing death had hit him until the shocking pain had simply vanished into another coat of sweet nothingness.
...]
no subject
- But those wounds would've killed him eventually, right? Or at least cause him horrible pain, so this way is better, right? So this is for the best.
That thought still doesn't stop her from shaking as she chokes back a sob, as she whispers another apology to him while she stumbles away and towards the staircase. The meadow usually helped calmed her down, but now she wants to be anywhere else but here.]
