Warnings: ROOSTERS

Room 2-02/dorm floors; January 2nd
[When Waver woke, the first thing he heard was a small scratching coming from the foot of his bed. And then a crow. And frankly, what the hell?

So, he got up, rubbing the sleep from his eyes, and opened the trunk...only to have a very angry rooster pop out at him, feathers flying. It caught his nose in its beak, as if the shock wasn't already enough to send him falling backwards on his butt.

Anyone nearby will probably hear a shriek in the middle of the frenzy.]

Elswhere; any day
[Tiny Waver now carries the rooster under his arm pretty much anywhere he goes. He doesn't trust it alone in his room. He doesn't look like he's having a good time keeping it with him, though. It often tries to fly away, scratch or peck him. And it's damn noisy.

After a few days it elects to sit on his head most of the time. Certainly easier to deal with, but...still pretty annoying.]

Counterargument: That's stupid even for this bloody place.

[nonacquiescent]

Counterargument: Stupid or not it will haunt my dreams and I'll never sleep again.

Question: Why the fuck are we talking like this and not fearing for both our lives?

[nonacquiescent]

Answer: We're dumbfucks.

Also it's docile right now.

But don't talk about doing anything to it too loud, I think it understands...

[fionnuisce]

That wouldn't surprise me. [Frowning, the older of the two stared at the rooster like it was some kind of unspeakable horror.]

I'm sure pure evil can sense malice directed at it.

[nonacquiescent]

Exactly. So trying to get rid of it would only end in suffering. It's best to just...appease it.

[fionnuisce]

Look, I draw the line at 'teenage girl' when it comes to humiliating examples of what I answer to. There's no way either of us are going to let a feather-covered hellbeast intimidate us.

[nonacquiescent]

When you call it a hellbeast, I'm pretty sure I can let it intimidate me.

[fionnuisce]

I never said it wasn't pure concentrated evil. That doesn't mean we have to shrink away from its very presence.

...Even if it is probably plotting to kill you.

[nonacquiescent]

--Don't say things like that!!

[fionnuisce]

For god's sake, can't you take a joke?

[~HUMOR~]

[nonacquiescent]

Not while I fear for my life!

[fionnuisce]

How the hell do you plan on dismantling the Grail when we can't even handle a chicken?!

[waver. no. you'll create a time paradox.]

[nonacquiescent]

I don't know, you tell me! You're way closer to that.

[fionnuisce]

Well, one of us ought to be able to figure that out!

[nonacquiescent]

I'm sure we will! This is just...a blip!

[fionnuisce]

...A blip with feathers and the will of Lucifer.

[nonacquiescent]

...Exactly.

It's one of the 72 demons of Hell, I'm sure of it.

[fionnuisce]

On the bright side, next time there's no food available we'll know where to look.

[...is he serious? who knows]

[nonacquiescent]

Didn't we already talk about the possibility of ghost chickens?

[fionnuisce]

I never said you had to kill it. Maybe if we trick someone like Sephiroth into doing it, he'll end up haunted by the fucking thing.

[nonacquiescent]

...

[Slowly a grin spreads across his face and he snorts.]

Yes. Two birds with one stone.

Literally.

[fionnuisce]

Why didn't we think of that first? I feel like that should have been the obvious solution.

[nonacquiescent]

Can we please.

[fionnuisce]

Absolutely we fucking can.
