Fake 12 [Action]

[personafalsify]

[ In the lake south of the village, there is a commotion today. What sort of commotion? A small, dark creature is wading out into the shallows where it struggles and flails and splashes a lot. After a while it manages to make its way back to shore. There it waits for a little, shaking off the water and gathering energy back again, before repeating this whole process once more.

Repliku is trying to relearn swimming. It is not going well. ]

[Hey, Repliku. There's a creepy little girl sitting near the lake, watching you. At least, it seems like she's watching you. It's kind of hard to tell with that blindfold on. She watches quietly for a few moments until she decides to speak up.]

If you are attempting to drown yourself, it will do you no good. I hear the dead return to life in this world.

[Just when she was hopping for a relaxing time of contemplation at the lake.]

If you want to kill yourself then hurry up and stop being a nuisance.

[ He turns to stare at her for a while while he dries out, more curious about the blindfold than confused. After a few moments, he gives a small motion that's his best impression of a hmph before moving back into the lake and trying again. ]

[ ... Oh, you sound familiar, he thinks he remembers you. Well, Rep isn't trying to kill himself, so you'll just have to suffer his attempts. So there. He rests a bit longer before wading back in to try again. ]

[kakeravoyager.livejournal.com]

[She'll keep watching, with very mild amusement at his antics. What kind of low minded creature can't even kill itself.]

Want some help?

[illusional]

[She doesn't react, simply watching as he turns and goes back into the water. That was weird. She tilts her head to the side.] Then... perhaps my assumption was incorrect? Was is it you are trying to do then?

[ Swimming, duh. Can't you tell? This flailing mess of wet tangled Heartless limbs is totally trying to be breaststroke. ... when he's not flailing to get back above water because this is not working as planned.

Okay dragging himself back to shore now to be wet and unhappy for a little while longer. ]

[personafalsify.livejournal.com]

[ He'd shake his head, but he's currently trying not to sink and drown. It's a noble pursuit, and he's failing miserably.

So in a few moments he'll drag his way back to shore, TOTALLY IGNORING BERN 8| ]

[kakeravoyager.livejournal.com]

[What you think you can ignore her oh hell no.

She walks closer to the creature.]

Honestly, how pitiful. You can't even do such a simple thing. Positive you don't need assistance?

[mermaidofnoel.livejournal.com]

[There is a mermaid looking at you from the water, little Heartless. Are you drowning?]

[personafalsify.livejournal.com]

[ No he doesn't :| Really 8|

He'll just wait here for a little while until he's ready to try again. STARING AT THE LAKE. ]

[personafalsify.livejournal.com]

[ No he's not. See how he makes his way back to shore! He hasn't noticed Razette yet because he's been too busy not drowning. Give him a minute. ]

[kakeravoyager.livejournal.com]

[...Heh. Ignore her, do you?

Hey Repliku, what's that ominous blue glow doing snaking up around your legs?]

[mermaidofnoel.livejournal.com]

[She can probably stare for hours quietly if she wants, if only because she has never seen a creature like you before.]

[personafalsify.livejournal.com]

[ What ominous bl-OH SWEET KEYBLADES WHAT IS THAT, ASDFJKL TRYING TO BOLT WILL SCRAMBLING FORWARDS ACROSS THE BEACH GET RID OF IT D8 ]

[personafalsify.livejournal.com]

[ And after resting for a while, he's going to turn and start wading back into the-

...

There is someone watching him from the water. Uh. What. ]

[kakeravoyager.livejournal.com]

[It isn't going away anytime soon and continues to expand towards him, trying to suck him into it. If he doesn't manage to get away from it then he should be ready to fall into the center of the lake.]

[personafalsify.livejournal.com]

[ WHAT THE HELL, OKAY IMMUNITY!PANCAKE TIME. Hopefully sinking into the ground will throw it off, because he hasn't found anything that has managed to hurt him when he pulls that trick yet... ]

[kakeravoyager.livejournal.com]

[It does throw it off- can't exactly warp something that isn't on the ground.]

Heh. I try to show good will and you run away? [And just as assurance, she hovers up a few feet from ground, to make sure he doesn't attack her with some weird shadow power he might have, and begins scanning the area above her.]

[mermaidofnoel.livejournal.com]

[Insert Jaws theme Oh! Spotted! She'll just go hide for a while.]

[illusional]

[Up until now she had been living in a desert, so swimming isn't something she's very familiar with. She may not be able to tell what he's doing, but whatever is, he doesn't look very happy about it!]

I can't say I understand why it is you are doing something that seems so... unpleasant.

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

[Sanji is... surprisingly enough, out for a swim himself. Alone, and missing the sea, but thankful for any body of water he can dip into for a few hours.

He sees the heartless scurry into the water, flail in a sad, pathetic way, and then waddle back to shore, all within the span of a few minutes... and he stares. He recognizes the guy but what the hell is he doing?

It's enough to make the chef right himself from floating on his back so he can get a better look]

Is that your rendition of swimming?

*misses her edit button*

[personafalsify.livejournal.com]

[ No, he's just gonna reappear over here near the trees, safe and sound (???) and a ways from the lake and those blue things 8< ]

[personafalsify.livejournal.com]

[ So that it becomes less unpleasant! Also he wants to go rafting 8( He shakes the water off himself and then takes another look at her. What's with the blindfold, seriously. ]

[personafalsify.livejournal.com]

[ ...

Uh.

Alright then.

Slooowly wading back in to try swimming some more. ]
