Who: Noric and Cain
When: Day 29, evening
Where: somewhere in the unsupervised dark of Level 4
What: safe things

[It's taken a little while, and no small amount of edging slowly through dark areas, but Noric's finally found some fairy lights. Time to cut some of these out so he can head home for the night.]

[dark areas are helpful for someone to skulk along carefully. And for a resident of a jungle, he's good at being quiet as he creeps on closer]

[Cain isn't the only one used to jungles. Noric is too, but the kind of sounds he's listening for are animal noises. Severing the fairy lights, one vine, two, three...]

[Creep, creep, and once he's within striking distance...

he lunges and swings one of the tougher vines at his head]

[Heard the whistling of it through the air, but not quick enough to react. The blow catches him behind the temple, and he falls with a short, sharp cry.]

[laughs and, man, let's not take any chances. Landing a few more blows to make sure he won't be getting up any time soon]

[you know what, that does work, but not before he fucking kicks you between the first and the second blow 8|]

[Ow. Geez. That just intensifies his blows after that.]

[Taking a moment to breathe and recover once Noric is down]

That hurt, you jerk!

[too dazed and bleeding to reply, sorry]

[huff. I'm going to go grab some plant life around here to force feed you with. Don't go anywhere :)]

[...no I think I might try to drag myself away.]

[I'mma just come back and stomp on your back then]

Did I say you could leave?

[hisses at the impact.]

I know you're going to get in the way of my brother and me, so you're going to have to go.

[kicks him so he'd roll over]

[kicked onto his back. glares at Cain through all the blood, and... damn, are his irises starting to light up silver?]

You're a priest? [well damn. Let's go to work stuffing all these unpurified fruits and leaves down your throat]

[oh shit. lashing out with his legs and arms when he realises what Cain is trying to do.]

Hold. Still!

[ow ow ow gdi attempts to punch him in the head again so he'd stay down for once. geez]

[fdjksl s-super effective, all this blunt force trauma.]

[It just shows how much I love you.

Now eat your food. :3]

[I hope you're massaging his throat or something to manage that otherwise it ain't happening.]

[does holding your nose and mouth closed until you swallow sound fun?]

[this is bullshit sir. but between the lack of air and his consciousness wavering in and out... yes, he's going to end up swallowing.]

Good boy.

[taps him on the cheek then gets up for a while to look for Noric's knife or whatever he was using]

[fffffffffff trying to... roll back over...]

[picks up the knife and looks it over]

Nice. Orion quality.

[He walks back to Noric, grabs him by the arm, and casually draws a shallow cut along it. Enough to hurt and bleed but not fatal.]

[hisses, then turns his head sharply towards Cain, eyes flaring silver, and yells 'Stab him!'. the knife rips itself out of Cain's hand and comes hurtling back towards him.]

[well shit. Getting stabbed in the side then. Yells and falls back. Staring in shock at the knife]

You jerk!

[whumps back to the ground when Cain lets go of his arm. the light in his eyes sputters out, and he coughs a couple of times.]

You really... have no room to talk.

[taking care not to pull out the knife as he stands and goes to kick Noric again]

You know, I think I'm just going to leave you here.

[bites back a yelp, curling in on himself.]

[hisses, hand over his wound. He looks around, decides to kick Noric again for good measure before stalking off. There's enough blood here to attract the nature soon enough]

[. . . his knife. scrabbles at the ground trying to right himself, trying to at least get to his knees, but he's just too dizzy. falls back on his side, eyes screwed shut, as his head throbs and the poison makes its way into his system.]

[The worst part about bleeding out in the uncleared part of headquarters? After a while, there's the sound of skittering among the flora.]

[good thing I'm passed out.]

[At least you just get the spiders. Have fun with that while I try to get out of here unscathed]
