Tenth File. [ backdated to monsterfield! ]

[ After the pod people, the blob, growing unexpectedly, what was next that Mayfield had in store for them?

Monsters.

Monsters.

Well, this ought to be fun. ]


[ Action: Mayfield High. ]

[ Those of you who see her, she may be a little bit off from the person she's been lately. But, it must be because she's so busy, right? After all, she has the concert on top of her projects with her alchemy lessons on the side. Surely she must be okay, right? Well, don't expect her to be too conversational around you if you don't know her too well. ]

[ Action: On the Way Home ]

[ Oh, no! It looks like one of the monsters, specifically a crab has Diana tight in its' pincers! But, wait - was it stopped from its' raging stampede? Well, upon a closer look, Diana has one hand on her hip and her other hand is busy pointing accusingly at the robot. She is not in the mood for these kind of shenanigans! ]

You must have some form of intelligent life in you, so I'll ask you to politely put me back down on my feet. I've no use to you at all. To you, I probably taste bad and you'd get tired of me quickly.

So, put me down. Now.

[ The crab stares at Diana. It doesn't know what to do. Why was a fleshy human bag thing talking to it? SIMPLE CRAB is confused! SIMPLE CRAB hurt itself in its' confusion! What will TRAINER DIANA do?

TRAINER DIANA used PERSUASION! It's super effective! Soon, Simple Crab gently puts Diana down on her feet. ]


Good boy. Now, can you sit for me?

[ Simple Crab sat down like a good crab! It looks like it wants to be scratched! ]

Well... only because you've been a good boy. Don't get any ideas, yeah?

[ Diana approaches the crab and gives it a little scritch on the top of its' head. She seems to be smiling just a bit, too. At least there was something sort of familiar to her in Mayfield.

You may now be promptly weirded out at this. ]

[It's like Barry's mechanical squid all over again. Or the giant fish mecha. Or the army of clockwork ducks...

Sparks have a thing for derpy mechanical animals okay.]


I see you've managed to collect a minion.

[SPEAK CAREFULLY, DIANA. He has known other ladies that have special gifts with animals with jointed legs and feelers...]

[ Simple Crab stares at Klaus. Who are you and why are you interrupting it from it scratches? It was enjoying those scratches, thank you very much. ]

I find it neat.

[ Simple Crab: I WAS CALLED NEAT. Day made. =D ]

[identity profile] myblimpisbigger.livejournal.com 2011-10-29 10:11 am (UTC)(link)
I am not calling into question how neat it may or may not be. I was more referring to the fact that you seem to be the first, at least to my knowledge, to attempt to tame one and apparently succeed.

[Simple Crab gets an unimpressed sort of imperious look. He will not be giving you scratches, Simple Crab. Nope.]

[identity profile] notalwystrthful.livejournal.com 2011-10-29 10:13 am (UTC)(link)
All it'll take is persuasion instead of screaming and acting like an idiot to them.

[ But don't you want to give it scratches? You know you want to. ]

[identity profile] myblimpisbigger.livejournal.com 2011-10-29 10:18 am (UTC)(link)
[No. No, he doesn't.]

You'll forgive me. I am used to monstrous animals which cannot be stopped merely by a show of good will. Generally that only results in being ripped to shreds a bit more quickly.

[He prods Simple Crab with one foot.]

I'm actually a tad disappointed. I expected a bit more out of Mayfield, especially after those bears.

[Dexter is watching with wide eyes at this apparent robocrabmonster whisperer. And is convinced he can do better. So he tries it with a nearby crab.]

CRAB! LISTEN TO MY ORDERS AND DO AS I SAY! ROLL OVER!

[It stares at him, scratching a claw against its head. And promptly picks him up, roaring meancingly.]

NO! BAD CRAB! BAD CRAB!

Action: Home

[ And Diana will stare at you as if you just said one of the most idiotic things she has heard yet. She crosses her arms over her chest and sighs, shaking her head. ]

Put the boy down. Now.

[ The crab stares at Diana, then at Dexter, then back at Diana. Oh, she's not happy. Okay, we will fix this by putting this small boy down on the ground. ]

Now - sit, boy.

[ And Simple Crab does just that. To reward it, Diana gives a small scratch too the top of its' head. ]

[Dexter breathes a sigh of relief. Of course, that method didn't work, so no harm could be gotten in learning other people's methods!]

I thought these crabs would be moved by the power of suggestion... but I guess not...

[He tries again. Only sligjhtly less forceful this time.]

Hey, Crab thing. Roll over.

[and the crab repeats its previous action. Dexter screams for awhile as he's held up in the air. again.]

PUT ME DOWN PUT ME DOWN PUT ME DOWWWWWWWWWWWN! Please?

[he'll get it. Eventually.]

[Don't think he doesn't notice this. BECAUSE HE DOES. You've been acting weird all day and now he's all worried and this is not acceptable. When the last bell rings, you'll find Ed heading towards you.]

Hey, Di! Can we talk for a minute?

Mayfield High

[identity profile] notalwystrthful.livejournal.com 2011-10-30 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
[ Dammit. Oh, well. She straightens herself up and gives a slight uneasy smile towards Ed. ]

Sure. What do you need?
unexculpable: (The ripple effect)

[personal profile] unexculpable 2011-10-30 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
Nothing, really. Just have a question.

[He was just going to talk to you here, but seeing that smile makes him think better of it. Hope you didn't think you were going to be able to hide this from him, Diana. He nods towards the font doors, motioning for her to follow him.]

C'mon, we'll talk on the way home.

[identity profile] notalwystrthful.livejournal.com 2011-10-30 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
[ Well, she did. Oops. Though, she does follow him as directed. ]

All right. Go ahead and ask your question when you wish.

[ Why does she have a bad feeling about all this? ]
unexculpable: (Sure I guess.)

[personal profile] unexculpable 2011-10-30 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
[Because he's about to get all up in your emotional space that's why. Welcome to friendship, Diana. He waits until the make it to the sidewalk to ask his question.]

So are you going to keep pretending everything's sunshine and roses or are you going to be smart and just tell me what's going on? You've been acting weird all day, don't think I didn't notice.

Busy day at school?

[ Diana has plans to just go home as quickly as possible so that she can deal with her problem on her own. But, she does turn around and give Rika a nod. ]

You know how it is.

Action ☆ High School

[identity profile] badend-replay.livejournal.com 2011-10-30 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
Perhaps I do know. What is it that is making you so busy? Perhaps I can assist you in something? I am quite on top of my schoolwork.



Please do not hesitate to tell me.

Action ☆ High School

[identity profile] notalwystrthful.livejournal.com 2011-10-30 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, the concert, a few projects - you know, the usual. Maybe I bit off more than I can chew, but I'm able to handle the stress. It gives me something to do.

[ She is very good at avoiding her problems. She doesn't want to rip this bandaid off just yet since the wound is still so fresh. ]

A concert, you say? Musical, you mean. What sort of things would you need to have done for such a thing?

cacophonicsoul: (Dude what is that?)

[personal profile] cacophonicsoul 2011-10-31 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
[Well. That was unexpected. That was one cooperative robot crab.]

... How did you manage to do that?

Action

[identity profile] notalwystrthful.livejournal.com 2011-10-31 01:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Persuasion.

[ Don't you just wanna pet the crab, Soul? ;w; It just looks so happy. ]
cacophonicsoul: (Get your ass over here)

[personal profile] cacophonicsoul 2011-11-01 08:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[... Kind of. HE IS STILL UNSURE]

But... it's a robot, isn't it? It can actually understand you?

[identity profile] notalwystrthful.livejournal.com 2011-11-01 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[ But Simple Crab wants you to pet it. ]

Well, I've built robots before that have intelligence in them. Why not?
cacophonicsoul: (:o?)

[personal profile] cacophonicsoul 2011-11-01 08:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[Approaches. Tentatively. He's considering.]

Dunno. I mean, it just seems kind of unlikely. Looks kind of like a toddler put it together.
