i'm so nervous; i'm so tense

Who Izunia and you! And a couple closed prompts.
What: Catchall! Featuring cat, shapeshifting difficulties, and being upset about stupid gd inlaws.
Where: Wherious, various.
When: Assorted, mid-june IC.
Warnings: Probable talk of trauma

June 4 - CLOSED to Kurama

[It's hard to miss the way Izunia very suddenly gets up and leaves the sparring and combat lessons gathering, considering that he leaves via a truly impressive blue warp trail that's visible to just about everyone.

Up and over the Station the warp goes, and down to the beach below -

By the time the person following him catches up, Izunia is seated on one of the rocks and there's some very obviously charred sand in a couple patches nearby. He's got his face in his hands, and his shoulders damn near shaking.

Shit's Real Fucking Hard today.]


Residential floor common areas - obligatory CATTE

[What's this? It's a very large fluff who has decided to Investigate you. Or possibly chase and swat at your ankles, there's no telling really. Maybe she's curled up on her dad to be his partner in napping.

Either way, consider this your "Izunia has Verity out and about" catchall prompt.]


AV room, central area - June 7-9th

[Those of keen hearing might note the sound of violin music - either traiditonal or electric - from the large headphones Izunia has settled around his neck, on top of his scarf.

Possibly more noticable though is the various sparkles of crystal that flick through the air, directed by his hand in time with the music - ten in all, of various colors. Sometimes they bob up and down in response to indvidual notes, but other times they just kind of whirl in circles and figure-eights, catching the light as Izunia sits and listens to the music, occasionally sketching.

If you hadn't seen it yet, there's also a prominent red mark - or rather, three red marks, two wings on the hilt of a blade - on the back of his left hand.

He can be caught doing much the same during the storm the night of June 12th on the deck, if that's more your jam!]


June 13th, day - Station Roof

[What... the fuck is that? When did it get here? Why is it so impractically large?

Is it looking at you? Shit, it's definitely looking at you.

Anyone who has before witnessed The Mystic will no doubt recognize the thirteen-foot-figure that sits on the edge of the station's roof, watching the goings-on on the deck and beach below, but for anyone who hasn't, it might be a bit difficult to recognize the giant suit of armor as one of the usual residents.

The body posture of the suit of armor seems... pretty distinctly unhappy, though in a relatively low-key way. As much as it's... possible to tell the body language of a giant suit of armor with no face.

Is there even a body under there? (No. No, there's not. There is, however, a certain highly identifying red mark across the back of the armored hand...)]


June 13th, night - CLOSED to Astolfo

[It hadn't even occured to him that it was a moonless night. Izunia is still out on the roof as night falls, still resoundingly stuck in the shape of his armor. It's in some ways a natural, easy feeling -

But it's also one he loathes, because it's not flesh and blood, because of the way it's muted out most of his emotions. If he could, he would probably have panicked by now.

But instead all he's got is watching the stars, and trying to figure out how to get himself back to normal.]


Other

[Got somewhere else you want to catch napgramp? Hit me up with what you've got.]

[Sometimes (most days, really) the Station just felt a little too confining. So usually Ardyn would find his way to the roof for some air, relative quiet, and-]

Shit--

[...and almost immediately scrambling so hard he fell backwards with an anak-in-headlights look, Luscinia startled off her perch on his shoulder.]

Stay the hell away from me.

[He'd practically flinched at the voice, not quite able to stand back up just yet.]

What the hell are you doing here? Like that. Why the hell are you like that?!

13th

[ And during the day at some point, there's a Maddie wandering onto the roof. She has on her bright green headphones, but they're around her neck and there's nothing coming from them yet.

Zel is with her. He very obviously bristles as soon as he catches sight of that giant, monstrous armor... but then, less than a second later, relaxes as he catches sight of the Command Seal across the back of the hand. ]
Izunia.

[ Maddie pauses there. ] Ah, you're here as well, Mr. Izunia? I hope we weren't interrupting nap time. [ ...SHE HAS NO IDEA. ]

[ Maddie outfit check: shirt flannel, shorts, socks, bracelet ]

13th, Night

[Izunia's absence hadn't been concerning during the day- Astolfo did his own things, no doubt Izunia would be going about as he pleases as well. Come nightfall, there's a creeping concern that brings him out in search of his other half, and to the rooftop.

Seeing the figure, and the marks on its hand, there's no question about it. He approaches with a gentle, slightly hesitant, pace that is so unlike him.]


Master?

[He doesn't know the limits of what Izunia can do in this form, whether he can physically speak or not, so using their mental link to communicate appears the best course of action.]
riderofcharlemagne: (guh)

[personal profile] riderofcharlemagne 2018-07-01 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
Looks like it.

[He draws closer to him, the smallness of his own figure in comparison to Izunia's more pronounced than ever.]

What happened?
burninglight: (suddenly i see that i can't break free)

[personal profile] burninglight 2018-07-01 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
...


. . .


You're...you're stuck?
blackestwitch: (tell me what do your elf eyes see)

[personal profile] blackestwitch 2018-07-01 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
Difficulty with your...? What does that even mean?

[ She pauses, trying to make sense of that. From what she knows of his powers.... did he.... convert himself into light or something? No, there was some metal and metal-pinged sounds.

She really doesn't get it. ]


Your voice is definitely... not voiced like normal...
blackestwitch: (see what i have to put up with)

[personal profile] blackestwitch 2018-07-01 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
[ Zel speaks up. ] He appears to be a giant suit of armor.







What.
blackestwitch: (let me talk at you)

[personal profile] blackestwitch 2018-07-01 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
...I don't know much about spirits, but aren't giant suits of armor the opposite of spirits?
blackestwitch: (Default)

[personal profile] blackestwitch 2018-07-01 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
My world doesn't really have spirits at all, as far as I know. So I'm more talking about stories and folklore - [ She kind of. Catches herself. ] - but uh, I guess that's not important right now.

How did you get stuck like this?
blackestwitch: (let me talk at you)

[personal profile] blackestwitch 2018-07-01 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
....I don't think I can help much there. My magic can't affect anything that thinks.

Have you tried exhausting yourself? That can revert transformations in my world.
blackestwitch: (not having an existential crisis today)

[personal profile] blackestwitch 2018-07-01 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
That's not terribly different than usual, then.

Still, I guess the next step is to try and wait it out? ...Would you like me to bring up some books?

[Mai pauses and just watches quietly as the colours flicker.]

...Nice. Do people like that?
