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, then get running! Up to a hundred. One, two, three...

[technologic]

Aye, aye!

[Where to hide, where to hide... After some searching, April eventually decides to hide in a chest in one of the rooms, making sure to place the boxes that where on it back on top once she was in.]

[scentofmakai]

[Time to search! Unfortunately, Zett knows the box trick pretty well, and when he comes to April's room he starts kicking boxes.]

In here, maybe?

[technologic]

[Hey, she at least went for a chest which won't be easy to kick, since it was already heavy before she got in it. Though ow things poking her in the back. 8T]

[scentofmakai]

My foot's gonna hurt after this... guess I'd better just open this one.

[Aaand surprise!]

[technologic]

Dammit, I thought the chest would throw you off a bit.

[Just gonna climb out and rub her back with a frown.]

[scentofmakai]

Yeah, they're not very comfortable hiding spots, are they?

[technologic]

Nooot really. Probably gonna need to stretch myself out later.

[scentofmakai]

Well, you can stretch yourself out looking for me.

[technologic]

I can do that! To a hundred again?

[scentofmakai]

To a hundred again.

[technologic]

Okay, go start looking for a place to hide, then!

[scentofmakai]

[He dashes off. The place he decides upon this time is underneath a stairwell.

...he's a better seeker than a hider.]

[technologic]

[It's okay Zett, so is she. But she doesn't immediately notice that he's there when she walks past, though she does stop to think again right by where he's hiding, her back to him.]

[scentofmakai]

[Time to be as still as possible! Your pride depends on it, Zett!]

[technologic]

[And then she turns around to look some more. And spots a bit of green in the stairwell.] ...Zett?

[scentofmakai]

Fiddlesticks.

[technologic]

[April bursts into giggles at that.] Well, you might get me next time!

[scentofmakai]

[He crawls out of his hiding spot.] It took you a while this time, though.

[technologic]

Yeah, that's true. I certainly wasn't expecting you to hide under the stairs.

[scentofmakai]

Another round?

[technologic]

Sure, I'm up for another round!

[scentofmakai]

Alright. How many good hiding spots are in this castle anyway?

[technologic]

Umm... Not sure, probably a few. Either way, I guess that means we just have to get creative.

[scentofmakai]

Who's hiding next, you?
