2nd flower - video, action. EVENT TIME

Action;

a. At the party

[she's not okay. she's not okay. she's not okay.

a massive gathering of people, free food, and mindless speeches? fine, she can handle that, at least she would be able to drown out most of the people and just focus on getting herself a meal. what she couldn't handle was another earthquake. suddenly at the sensation her stomach lurched, she felt like she was a little girl again, and all the emotions from that time came flooding back.

but no, push it all down, this was different- this was an entirely different earthquake. this wasn't another red hole incident. even so... it was so devastating that it reminded her of that horrific time. minatsuki had been wearing a pink dress for the occasion, and it was definitely going to get ruined, since she planned on using her branch of sin either way.

even after the earthquake died down minatsuki was off to the side, absolutely rigid, her hand resting on her earring and ready to yank it at any given moment. she wasn't okay, she wasn't calm, she looked like she was about to snap and really hurt someone, or herself for that matter. try and sooth her or stay away?]

b. Fight or flight

[and when the spirits started coming, that was when minatsuki let her irritation and anger out completely. she had already yanked off her earrings, the blood flowing freely now as she manipulated it and twisted it. her tendrils of blood swirled around her as she backed away from a group of vile void spirits as they came towards her.]

Fuck off! You goddamn-...!! [she lashed out with her blood whips, her whip wing crashing into the spirits and sending them back temporarily. they kept on coming towards her, however.]

You bastards lay a hand on me and I'll rip your fucking heads off! [she was screaming, shaking, and she felt like this was an enemy she just couldn't defeat. this wasn't like her at all, but she hadn't ever encountered something like this before. she was in a whipping frenzy with them, and if she didn't stop she would certainly hurt someone else in the area. try and stop her? be careful! you will most likely get whipped if you do!]

Video;

[she had managed to get away from the spirits, for the time being, but she didn't know if she could keep running from them forever.]

This is so fucked up! How the hell are we supposed to beat these bastards? Whatever I do with my whips... they just keep on coming back. I can't... [she can't do this by herself.]

....And the flowers, those aren't like any flowers I've seen before. [and she knows her flowers.] Do the flowers have something to do with all this shit?

[someone please talk to her she's having a mental breakdown.]

[Jaune had no real experience with earthquakes, so while it may have caught him off guard and been disconcerting at the time, the worst thing he had to deal with was some motion sickness following the event. He had caught the flash of pink and familiar delicate features. Minatsuki couldn't have been more different from most of the people he chose to spend time with, but he found he liked her cynical and violent nature and when she yelled at him. Getting milkshakes with her again had been fun. He had began approaching with the intent to say hi and hopes that he could make fun of her for coming to such an extravagant event because it just really didn't seem like her normal choice. But the earthquake had interrupted him and he knew that look, to a certain point. He saw the rigidity in how she stood, and how she looked like the slightest wrong move could set her off.

He didn't really care if she hurt him, but he didn't want to make it worse. He had no idea what was going on. Approaching more slowly, he kept his voice low. Wearing a white suit jacket, black shirt and black pants, with an added red sash and his normal weapons, he looked somewhat like a white knight.]

Minatsuki?

[who was talking to her? someone was approaching and that nearly set her off as well. she turned quickly to see who was coming closer to her and it took her a moment to even register who it was. blonde, tall, scraggly hair... it was jaune, it was none other than that shitty white knight jaune.

god. he even looked like a knight right about now.

she felt her stomach lurch again at the sensation of the earthquake and she clutched at her earring even tighter. her throat felt like it had closed and she didn't want to deal with any of this shit. this wasn't like her- she needed to swallow it all down and pretend she was okay. she refused to lie to herself, but this situation was different.

she glared at him, her glare contained both her fear and her anger. a way of protecting herself really.]

What? Why are you looking at me like that? I'm fine. What's messed up here is that goddamn earthquake!

I know. It's not going to last forever.

[she looked so scared and ready to lash out. against his better judgment, he held his hands up for a second and started to approach her, dropping his hands.]

How can I help?

[he didn't know if what he was doing was the right thing, but he definitely didn't think she needed to be coddled right now. he didn't care if she attacked him, if that was what she needed to do. she couldn't hurt him permanently. it would be better in the long run if she went after him, then if she lost it on the wrong person.]

[how can he help? how can he help? what the fuck- he really was just some shitty white knight. minatsuki felt anger well up inside of her, since she felt as though jaune was trying to fix her. to change her. she didn't need fixing, she didn't need any of this.

once the earthquake calmed down minatsuki was still in a fury. she yanked on her earring, her blood began to swirl and form tendrils around her, and she whipped them out dangerously close to jaune.]

You can help by getting the hell away from me. Do you think you can really just help everyone that easily, Jaune?! I'm not a damsel in distress! [but she was, sort of, and she did need the help.]

[this was the first time jaune had actually seen minatsuki use her ability. his heart began to race as the earth stopped, watching the tendrils reach out to him in fascination.

move. you're going to get hurt.

but he didn't. he just stared at them, unflinching until her words hurt him more deeply than any physical attack could.]

I-- [the calm expression he was attempting broke down, and he looked away to spare her the flash of hurt.] I didn't say that...

[he looked at the tendrils out of the corner of his eye. they were kind of pretty.]

[she was just afraid, the earthquake had brought back such awful memories. what she also recalled though, was ganta from back home. ganta had got her to stop being a liar flower, had made her realize that she wasn't worthless, made her stop hating herself, and made her feel like she could actually be somebody.

jaune had the same kind of feeling to him, some naive guy that wanted to help people he was close to. though it seemed like jaune didn't have as much of a backbone as ganta.

with her tendrils still moving around her she frowned at him, now turning away from him as well. she was starting to calm down, but her nerves still felt as though they were on fire.]

....Then what? What were you going to say?

That if you're angry, or you need an outlet or something because of this. I don't know. You're bleeding.

[wow jaune, 10 out of 10. way to point out the obvious. once he was pretty much sure the earthquake wasn't going to continue, he started walking up behind her.]

Do you want to get out of here? [it was pretty crowded.]

[she just wanted to run, so yes she wanted to get out of here.

she turned towards him again and that was when she noticed the next phase of this shitty earthquake. the lights, the barriers, all of it.]

What... the fuck...?

What is it?

[he looked up in the direction she had. he saw a flash of movement, imperceptible shapes that were becoming increasingly clearer. he had never seen a spirit in great detail before, but as they swarmed nearer his whole body froze with initially in fear. without thinking, he reached to try and grab her hand.]

We need to go.

Edited 2017-06-08 01:09 (UTC)

[she was so wrapped up in the moment of what was happening, what was coming, she hadn't even realized that jaune had made a grab for her hand. under normal circumstances she would have punched him for even daring to try to touch her, but she was barely all there right now.

she had her hand taken by jaune, and as he pulled her she was suddenly back to her senses.]

Go where? [she sounded irritated, but she didn't pull her hand away from him just yet.]

Out of here. Somewhere less crowded, I don't know-- Just, we have to go.

[she could have punched him and he wouldn't have cared. his throat was tight and talking was too much of an effort in itself. still clasping her hand in his, jaune began running.]

[All of this is pretty out of hand and it just started. What the girl was doing with her attacks wasn't doing anything to help the situation either. If anything, she was being a danger to the people around her as much as the creatures were.

They hadn't attacked him yet, so he was keeping his distance at the moment.]

If you don't calm yourself, you aren't going to survive this battle.

What?!

[she turned to the sound of the voice, a whip violently cracked at her side due to pure irritation.]

You wanna be whipped next? Is that it?

Whipping me isn't going to make you fair better in your battle. [Neither is taking her focus off of the enemy, but he assumes that goes without saying.]

Nah- it won't.

[she flung out her whip, nearly hitting him in the process, but it cracked against a void spirit that had been approaching him.]

And you running your goddamn mouth is both distracting and putting yourself in danger, dipshit.

One wouldn't think someone with an eye to make themselves look as aesthetically as you would speak so inelegantly and with vulgarities. [Translation: You are pretty, but girl, you are rude and your mouth is dirty.]

Navarre. [He says simply and a specter appeas behind him. He's never actually unguarded.]

Carnage Form. [It merges with him and turns him into a walking belt fetish. He just waves his sword and the spirit behind him is cut in half and it doesn't come bacj.]

[yeah yeah, she's heard it all before. the way she looks is exactly what helped her to manipulate people in the first place. all she had to do in order to really seal the deal was to put on a fake voice and pretend she was a shy and helpless girl.]

I'll take my 'vulgarities' as a compliment. [douche.

but when he suddenly called upon some weird thing, and also transformed, minatsuki was awed by him. what mostly made her jaw drop was seeing how he killed one of the spirits... and it didn't come back.

for a moment she thought she could use him to her advantage, to get rid of these spirits and run away from everyone. but no- she wasn't someone that used anymore, she was thinking that way because of just how shook up she was.]

So you got some powers... alright, I can hold the spirits with my whip if you cut them down. [look at her, trying to work together with someone. progress!]

[If he knew she was that good of actor, he might suggest acting as an actual career if she didn't have on e already. Though he in no way complimented her other than saying she looked nice. He'd appreciate it if you didn't take compliments where they weren't given.]

That would make dealing with them easier. [At least she seems to have a mind for strategy. He moves closer to her so they aren't too spread out from each other.]

Let's begin.

It sure would.

[alright, now she had someone she could have on her side, and he would be able to take down these gross things without worrying about them coming back. perfect.

she saw a group of them coming towards the both of them now, and minatsuki ran a little closer to the belt-freak. she lashed out with her whips, grabbing a hold of two of them with each whip and then held them in place.]

Kill them!

[..He'll belt-freak you, Minatsuki. When she grabs the spirits, he quickly dashes forward. With two swift and quick motions of his sword, he lobs off the spirits heads to dispatch them as quickly as possible.

He leaps back to take up position closer to her again.]

Yashiro Tsurugi. [He's kind of a celebrity here in Genessia, she should know him already. But there is always the chance that she doesn't.]

[Taylor hadn't gone to the awards, but she was in her magical girl attire, which made her look more like a doctor who liked frills a little too much. At least she didn't wear a dress when in her magical girl form.

Running around, she was looking out for a couple of things. One was people who might be hurt but also people she had been watching. They weren't doing their usual because of this and it bothered her a tiny bit.

Turning the corner, she stopped, pausing for a moment.]

Woah! Watch where you are whipping. Could seriously hurt someone.

[minatuski didn't care that someone was yelling at her about hurting people, she just wanted to hurt something, mostly the spirits.]

That's kind of the point here! Get in my way and I'll whip you too.

Hey, hey. Spirits are that way, not this way.

[At least she didn't have a raised voice, because no point at this moment in time.]

Though sure I can self heal, but cannot revive myself.

[ Weiss had been wearing this dress for the awards for over a day at this point. she certainly didn't feel fresh anymore, even if she still looked impressively okay for having been fighting for so long. Just tired and dirty.

It isn't as if she's had much time to check the network. Fighting to the gate at Nova, clearing the city out and stopping more from coming in took a long while to even get to a point where she felt like she could breathe. So it feels long after the fact that she replies to Minatsuki. ]

Have you met David Haller? He has weapons that can beat these things, but they're.. they'll drain you, so use them sparingly. Final blows only. And if you can, Nova City's much safer than Genessia right now. If you're still out there, let me know and Mercury can head your way. He's.. we've been sending him out on rescue missions. I'm sorry I couldn't offer sooner.

[He's only spoken to her once, yet he'd know that cursing harridan anywhere. No surprise she lacks the spiritual weaponry necessary to truly vanquish these things, being dead inside and all. He'll kindly, courteously offer a helping hand.]

"Probably! They are spiritual creatures, and must be fought on their own terms: the numinous, that is. Are you in trouble? Ping me your coordinates, and I'll be more than happy to escort you to the nearest safehouse, Ms. Hummingbird."

[For all his cheer, he sounds winded. Minatsuki isn't the only one who needs a break from the nonstop battling.]
