04 | but really I'm not actually your friend

[scentofmakai]

Characters: Zett and you! Backdated somewhat to May 1st-4th.
Setting: Floors 92, 73, 99, then around the tower May 4th only.
Format: Starting actionspam, will change to match!
Summary: Zett has hide and seek to play. Then he finds a doll...
Warnings: None so far. Violence likely in the doll prompt. Chloe's thread gets creepy in sexual ways.

[Floor 92/Floor 73]
[If you're someone who's agreed to play hide and seek with Zett, on the agreed-upon day and time you'll find Zett tapping his foot impatiently near the stairway.] There you are!

[If you're not someone who's agreed to play, well, you might run into him waiting for his partner anyway. He'll explain what he's doing if asked.]

[Floor 99]
[Zett spends a lot of time in the caverns here. They remind him of his home in the Deep Hole, actually...

Visitors will find him just lying on his back staring up at the ceiling.]

[Around the Tower]
[It looks like Zett's giving a guide to the tower to someone, stopping at each floor on the stairway and explaining that floor's particular hazards to them. It's very thoughtful of him to do so.

Unfortunately, that 'someone' is a doll from the toy shop. Resembling a redheaded girl, it doesn't look exactly like the friend Zett left at home... But the doll's powers of suggestion are strong and he's now convinced that Mirai Kaname has entered the tower.

And he will lash out violently if anyone attempts to hurt her.]

[scentofmakai]

Alright. I'm gonna give you a hundred count to hide, and then I'll start looking.

[myblueskies]

Okay! [He grinned and waited til Zett began counting.]

[scentofmakai]

One, two, three...

[Find a good place!]

[myblueskies]

[He scampers off to find somewhere to hide, taking the staircase two at a time. He looks around, avoiding the beds. This is a fun game and he wants to keep his spirits up!

His face lights up when he spots a chimney, he climbs inside and up until he finds a ledge big enough to perch on. It's the best hiding place!]

[scentofmakai]

[You're lucky, Romeo. Zett doesn't even think you could climb up there.]

Where aaaare you? [Checking around the same area.]

[myblueskies]

[He's pleased with his hiding place and sits quiet and still grinning.]

[scentofmakai]

Darn, I lost Romeo, I guess I'm gonna have to tell our roommates that I ate him. It'd be pretty embarrassing to lose him in a hide-and-seek game.

[myblueskies]

[Romeo let out a giggle and quickly pressed his hands over his mouth to stop any more sound coming out.]

[scentofmakai]

I heard that~ [He'll check inside the chimney next, since that's where the sound came from.]

[myblueskies]

[Romeo stayed as still and quiet as he could, in case Zett didn't look upwards.]

[scentofmakai]

[Unfortunately for Romeo, Zett does think to look up.]

I can see you too~ Caught!

[myblueskies]

Nuhuh I'm not caught til you tag me!

[scentofmakai]

Well, are you planning to sit in the chimney all day?

[myblueskies]

You gotta catch me! [And he starts climbing upwards.

This is totally how you play hide and seek in Milano.]

[scentofmakai]

I'm not getting my head stuck in there.

[Zett is bigheaded after all.]

[myblueskies]

It's big enough! You wont get stuck!

[scentofmakai]

[Carefully, Zett pokes his head inside.]

Alright...

[myblueskies]

[He grinned and giggled and climbed some more, quickly gaining height.]

[scentofmakai]

[Zett was better at jumping than climbing. He scrambled upwards, trying to catch him.]

[myblueskies]

[He climbed all the way to the top, it was the cleanest chimney he had ever climbed, probably because it wasn't real and wasn't used. When he got to the top he slipped through the gap and got up onto the roof.

He smiled, though it wasn't real outside that feeling of moving from the dark of the chimney to the roof and sky was the same, snow fell into his hair and he smiled. Still enough that Zett could probably get him if he got up fast enough.]

[scentofmakai]

[When Zett emerged from the chimney, he immediately tried to tackle Romeo onto the rooftop.]

[myblueskies]

[He manages and Romeo falls laughing.] You got me Zett!

[scentofmakai]

You know it. [He picks himself up and holds out a hand for Romeo.]

[myblueskies]

[He takes the hand and scrambles up grinning and looking around.] Isn't it pretty Zett!

[scentofmakai]

The best views are always from way up.

[It's why his anime has so many 'pan up on Zett at a tall place' shots.]
