oo2. video; I think they call it mechanophillia

[ There's a clatter before the feed turns on. It seems the SFC's fallen and is now pointing straight toward the sky. Enjoy the view, Vatheon. It's the forest today and the sea above is lovely as are the trees.

And then you hear it. It sounds like Ciel Phantomhive but somehow the drawl of that voice is kind of... different. ]

There you are, girl. Easy does it.

[ A pause with the barest, softest grunt. ]

Bugger but that's in tight, isn't it? Didn't think we'd have that kind of trouble. S'alright though... just relax and let me reach in there...

[ Another grunt, this one more forced. Ronald's breath seems to be hitching at this point because there's a soft pant after it. ]

Wedged in there tighter than I thought. Guess we'll prolly need more lube. Good thing Ciel's got these lovely thin fingers, eh?

[ And another groan coupled with the shuffle of cloth. ]

Easy, old girl. Easy. Almost there...

[ Further panting, much worse and much ragged than earlier. And another grunt of effort. ]

Bleeding... wreck... ah... almost...
Got it!

[ There's one more loud groan followed by heavy breathing...

And the roar of a lawnmower engine? ]

That takes care of that, then. Should prolly clean up now. Gunk's gotten all over--

[ And there it goes. Ronald's finally realized his SFC's fallen out of his pocket. He reaches over to pick it up, looking for all the world like an overworked greasemonkey. Behind him on the ground, his shiny red lawnmower of a death scythe is purring like a happy kitten. There's a sheepish little two fingered salute for your troubles. ]

...Well that's embarrassing. Sorry about that everyone. Just a bit of maintenance work! Seems she's been a mess ever since I came in what with the state of us being wet and all. Incidentally, anyone need some yard work done?

I suppose so... Hey, do you guys all work with lawnmowers ? [That would be so weird.]

Mm... Like a movie about the person's life then ? It's interesting... But we don't use such things.

Edited 2012-09-24 18:52 (UTC)

Nah. We pick our own scythe. Less mess that way. Mister Sutcliffe uses a chainsaw and Mister Spears has this... ah... what do you blokes call it?

[ Because really, the term escapes him. ]

Tree trimmer? Dunno really but it's a sleek thing. Extendable clippers and all. Suits them, I think what with Mister Sutcliffe wanting to run wild and Mister Spears needing something more precise.

[ Finger tapping the surface of his scythe before he continues polishing. ]

Yeah, that's right. Have to wonder though how things work with you lot if you don't use records or anything.

I see. That is... interesting.... [Oh dear... Why do Shinigami have to be such strange creatures ?]

We also use 'weapons' called Shikigami. They are spiritual guardians with different powers that we can summon. [And he won't tell you that he has twelve of them.]

Mm... We are given the names of the souls to reap but it is not our task to decide if they must live or die.

Cor, now that's something I haven't heard of before. Only thing we've got on us are our scythes and our wits. Beastly world out there for a reaper who doesn't have his scythe on him, I'm telling you. What with demons and all...

[ A pause though. ]

No second chances then?

My summonings powers don't work over here so I can't show you my Shikigami. [He pouts a bit because he misses them, especially the shared naps with Byakko.

Wait...] So there's demons in your world too...

[If Roniel is attentive enough, he can see the shadow passing onto Asato's face and his eyes becoming slightly sadder.]

Second chances ? Rarely.

[ And sitting himself down beside his mower. Man, did this conversation get really heavy all of a sudden. ]

Yeah, we got demons in our world. One's the reason I showed up the way I did first day in. Beastly thing, really.

[ Small wrinkle of his nose. ]

[Yes, this often happens when Asato is around, sorry.]

I see... Were you fighting one ?

[His eyes moves to the lawnmower. Please, don't use it against him, Roniel.]

[ You're a bro, Tsu... no worries. ]

Yeah, got into a bit of a scrap with one. Don't think I'll be doing that any time soon again.

[ And a small murmur. ]

...He's here, you know. Best you have a care around the city.

[Thank you, bro, this is a relief.]

Ah, yes ! I want you to stay in one piece.

[Woohoo, more demons ! They'll soon make a club.]

Who is it ? [And better if this conversation turns private. No ?]

[ Much better, really. Last thing he wants to do is to turn Sebastian's attention to him. There's a moment of hesitation though before he speaks up. ]

Ciel's butler. His name's Sebastian Michaelis... at least, that's what his master's calling him.

[Asdfghhdhsgh... Wait, what ?]

Michaelis-san is a demon ?! [And now he needs to sit down.]

You know him then? Kind of not surprised...

[ A small pause to think, though. ]

He and Phantomhive are keeping that bit of information on the wraps. S'not exactly anything you'd go blurting to the general public, methinks. Could see why though. Better just act like you didn't hear it from me, eh?

Ah, really ? It happens that Ciel is getting along well with a person from my world. A very dangerous person.

[Asato nods, looking extremely serious this time.]

I will, don't worry. Michaelis-san promised me a tea party to talk about said person though. Do you think I should still accept ?

[ A pause. ]

Yeah? Phantomhive's all in over his head, stubborn git. Who's he? Could prolly keep an eye on him.

[ There's a hum of consideration. ]

If Bassy's asked you over, he prolly needs you for something. Wager he asked to talk about something? Course, Phantomhive's got a bit of a hold on him. You'll prolly be fine.

Doctor Muraki, he works at the clinic. Be careful if you find yourself around him, he likes cute boys. [And probably not for the reasons you could think of, Roniel. Though...]

Yes, I'm aware of that. And I promise to be careful now that... that I know what he is.

Which one's he? I know Miss Angelina and Yukio works at the clinic too... wager he's the one with the silver hair then?

[ Cute boys...? Hoboy. Yeah, okay, worrying about Yuki now. ]

Right. Just be on your guard and all...

Yes, him. Did you meet him already ? [Hey, you're cute too Ronald !]

I will ! Thanks for the warning.

[ Well yes, yes he is and he knows it. But he can take care of himself. Yuki on the other hand... Exorcist he may be, if this doctor's got a fellow reaper worried... ]

'Fraid I haven't. I came in with Yukio and I know Miss Angelina from home. Don't really hang around the clinic much.

[ Have a grin back. ]

No worries. Anything to help a mate out.

[Ah, ok ! And Tsuzuki is not the only fellow reaper to be worried. There's Tatsumi too.]

That's good then, stay away from it. I recently met Yukio's brother and also warned him about Muraki. [They'll be an army soon.]

Eh... Ronald... I have something to ask you.

Warned Rin too, eh? That should get it going...

[ Head tilting now in curiosity. ]

Something on your mind then? Ask away.

Yes, I believe so. He is a good kid.

[Asato shifts a bit and then looks down.]

Do you... hate demons that much ?

[ There's a pause though and a small frown from that. ]

Guess that's a bit of a loaded question, isn't it? Last thing a bloke has by memory of a demon is being attacked.. course I'd be a little on edge.

[ Frown getting worse. ]

Course... this city might change my mind...

Yes, I suppose so...

[He promises to keep his destructive side under control then. Or try to.]

It could. The most strange creatures live here.

Bit of a mess we've gotten ourselves here if you ask me.

[ And a laugh, almost as if he'd already managed to push his bad mood away. ]

The only one I'm worried about though is Sebastian. Show me a demon who isn't a beast like he is and I could reconsider, eh?

That's true but I really like to live here. I feel... calmer than in my world.

[Very good ! Asato likes it when his friends feel good.]

Oh... And what if I could ?
