20 - [video] Fog and free meat

[forged_anew]

[The video turns on to show an expanse of fog, moving to point at the ground where something shadowy is visible through the mist]


The fog really does mess with your sense of direction. A minute ago I was only a few steps from Horton... Haru especially, maybe you shouldn't wander around.

Anyway... I found this body. Looks like one of the monsters, but it's pretty badly chopped up. It seemed unusual. Any idea who or what could've done this?


[He takes a few steps closer, nudging the shadow with his foot and panning the camera around. Whatever it had been, it was pretty big, and there were several lumps of it scattered around. Overall, not a pretty sight, and after a few more moments, Zuko turns the camera back towards himself. He's wearing a slightly disgusted expression, but otherwise looks thoughtful]


Anyone want to come over here and help me drag some of this home? I'm not one to refuse free meat.

You make that sound as if one can help where they end up in this fog! If that's the case then you shouldn't have ended up somewhere else, hmm~?

[forged_anew]

[siiiigh]

We'll wait a while and contact you if we move, fine?

[allmoveone.livejournal.com]

(There's a pause because oh, how teasing people like you is fun, but he hasn't asked this yet and, well--)

Where are you?

[commentlog] So IDRK what's going on /makes stuff up :|

(All considered it, doesn't really take Break all that long to get to where Zuko is, hat and cane and all -- all not including sweets, depressingly. Footsteps may or may not enlighten you to his presence since, well, apparently the fog is playing tricks on all and sundry. But hey. He looks surprisingly relaxed and upbeat considering the situation.)

...still by the warehouses on Lander.

I don't like repeating myself, Break.

dgjf THAT'S WHAT I GET FOR MULTITASKING completely my fail there orz

[allmoveone.livejournal.com]

We all have to do things we don't like.

[eyesofgeass.livejournal.com]

Are you not concerned about getting lost?

[commentlog] gotcha

[alittleraven.livejournal.com]

[ And he'll just be arriving shortly, coat tightly pulled over his body, trying to see through this damn fog, you know ]

[foxtamer.livejournal.com]

Like how it transported me into a pole? Yeah. I don't think I appreciate its sense of humor much.

Hmm.. I'll ask her if she can!

[commentlog] /also makes stuff up

[forged_anew]

[Zuko looks up at the sound of approaching footsteps, drawing his swords soundlessly just in case. It was probably only Raven or Beat, but he couldn't see a thing in the fog, so... better be cautious, right?]

Hello?

You can join the commentlog up there if you want

[forged_anew]

Okay.

[commentlog] go me, not having tagged the right comment orz

[alittleraven.livejournal.com]

[ He could have sworn he heard footsteps in a different direction from the voice he recognized from the communicator but -- he couldn't be too sure ]

It's Raven. [ Not enjoying this fog :\ stupid mind-tricks ]

[commentlog] Huh? We're just taking turns randomly as people show up. Minato might come too ^^

[forged_anew]

Over here.

[Zuko called, since he knew it was impossible to see him. Hopefully Raven could follow the sound of his voice.]

[forged_anew]

Well, I didn't expect to end up clear over here when I only went a few steps out of Horton, but I know where I am and I know the layout of the city well.

It might take longer, but I'll get back. Staying close to the buildings is probably a good idea.

It's okay! <3

[forged_anew]

[Why are you so annoying? No response for you. Just hurry up.]

[eyesofgeass.livejournal.com]

Then go ahead and bring some by.

[Oh so amused]

[forged_anew]

Well, I meant did you want to come get some... but okay.

I'll see what I can do.

[eyesofgeass.livejournal.com]

Zuko, surely you do not think me capable of handling myself nearly as well as what you do out there.

[Half truth. Lulu has a gun and a memorized layout of the city, but eh...]

[forged_anew]

You don't have any martial skills?

[eyesofgeass.livejournal.com]

Battles in my world are not fought by hand.

[forged_anew]

What kind of battles do you have, then?

[eyesofgeass.livejournal.com]

They are all through the means of artillery and various other forms of weaponry. Giant airships. Missiles. Knightmare Frames. Battle at home is no different than working your pieces on the chessboard.

[forged_anew]

We have other kinds of artillery too, but we also have different types of hand to hand combat as well as Bending.

[eyesofgeass.livejournal.com]

I thought as much, considering the nature of the question.

[Very amused]
