[video] [BACKDATED]

[toreadorkabull]

-=the image clicks on as the sfc hits the ground, spinning a few times before it slows to a stop, continuing to film at an odd angle=-

Ahh! No, stop!

-=Tavros seems to be pressed up in a corner, caught on his horns against the walls. He's pushing back with his arms as his robotic legs keep trying to walk him forward into the walls=-

Tavros! I'm coming!

[A blur flies through the air, knocking Tavros onto his back and sitting on his chest as his legs continue to flail.]

What's happening?! Why won't they stop?? [The blur-turned-kitty-troll looks down at him anxiously, looking rather strange in a brown-symboled shirt that's far too big for her rather than her usual green one.]

I, uh... I don't know!

Equiuuuuuuus!!! We need help!

[bestestfurrend]

You won't, you won't, it'll be fine, I purromise!

[toreadorkabull]

Y-you, uh... can't promise that.

... Purrlease?

[bestestfurrend]

Tavroooos, that's not fair!

[toreadorkabull]

Uh... Did it work?

[bestestfurrend]

Nope!

[toreadorkabull]

-=huffpout=-

[bestestfurrend]

[hush, facechuus now]

[toreadorkabull]

-=...chuu!

and then his leg kicks through a wall and gets stuck=-

[stayb100ponyboy]

I am NOT fixing that wall.

[Someone saw that chuu and is very unhappy about it! Equius stalks over, completely disregarding any danger to himself from the flailing limbs, and tries to assess the situation.]

When did this start?

[toreadorkabull]

-=tav jumps at the sudden appearance of the blueblood, arms still wrapped around nepeta=-

Uh...

-=his leg is trying to pull itself free, getting rather dented in the process=-

N-not long ago?

[bestestfurrend]

But you're the bestest at fixing walls, Equius! And it's not Tavros' fault.

[Nepeta on the other hand is oblivious. She's still clinging to Tavros, well out of range of his legs.]

[stayb100ponyboy]

Ask Darkleer to do it.

[Equius is going to stick to his guns on this! Also, he has a feeling he'll be busy fixing a new pair of legs for Tavros sometime in the immediate future.]

[He catches one flailing ankle and holds it still, watching with interest as the leg twitches and jerks in his grasp.]

Can you feel that?

[toreadorkabull]

-=tries to push himself up on his elbows to see but there's a catgirl in the way=-

Uhh.. no?

[bestestfurrend]

He nefur feels anything with his legs.

[Said in the tones of someone who has tested this out quite thoroughly.

...yes, she's a little bit annoyed with her moiral just now.]

[stayb100ponyboy]

[Wow, Nepeta. Wow.]

[Equius gives her A Look, the kind of look that says they're going to discuss this later, ad nauseum, then turns his attention back to Tavros' legs.]

I can change that. I can make you feel things in them, if you want.

[First things first, though... he needs to figure out how to make them stop glitching.]

[toreadorkabull]

R-really?

-=he curls an arm around Nepeta's waist to try and and shift her a bit so he can face Equius when he speaks=-

B-but uh, I have no felt anything in them... in a very long ti-

-=and then his free leg swings upwards at an odd angle, rolling his lower body as well=-

Gaaah!!

[bestestfurrend]

[And that sure is a kittytroll going flying across the room!

Good thing she always falls on her feet.]

[stayb100ponyboy]

It's just a matter of connecting them to your spinal cord and... NEPETA!

[Equius drops Tavros' leg and rushes to his moirail to make sure she's okay. Sorry, Tav... priorities.]

[toreadorkabull]

No! Nepeta!

-=that's quite alright, Equius. he wouldn't have it any other way. in fact he's trying to drag himself after her with his arms, strong enough to actually manage somewhat despite his legs fighting him the whole time=-

Are you okay? Did I, uh... did I hurt you?

[bestestfurrend]

I'm okay, I'm okay, I'm fine, purromise!

[She attaches herself to Equius' side.] Just a tiny little bruise or two, that's all. [She sounds hopeful. Surely a bruise merits one of her special bandaids...?

And then she notices what her matesprit is up to.]

Tavros, don't do that, you'll get hurt much worse than me!

[stayb100ponyboy]

Oh, for heaven's sake.

[This is getting absurd. Equius stalks over to Tavros and promptly sits on his legs, pinning him down at the thighs and keeping him from fishtailing all over the floor.]

You might want to move, Nepeta.

[If Tavros cooperates, Equius is going to flip open the hatch on his hip that leads to the control panel for his legs and investigate.]

[toreadorkabull]

-=kick kick kick flail kick kick kick=-

Uh...

-=he'll cooperate, it's not as though he as much choice=-

What are you, going to do?

[bestestfurrend]

[Nepeta crouches down close by, just out of reach of Tavros' flailing legs, and watching intently as her moirail starts working on her matesprit's legs.]

Can you see what's wrong, Equius? Can you make it stop??

[stayb100ponyboy]

I don't know!

[Equius' frustration bleeds through in his voice.]

I don't know why they're not working! Everything looks fine!

[toreadorkabull]

I, uh... did not even do anything to them.

-=he pouts, getting frustrated=-

They just, started to not listen all on their own.
