Seventh Killing Spirit 〰 [Accidental Video]

[A nice clean living room is broadcasting, showing a couch and a coffee table, and the edge of a TV. Upon the Coffee table is a gathering of legos and a somewhat elaborate diorama of an ocean and lands of some sort as well as a toy horse. There are a few clothes hanging by the window to dry, despite it not being open. It's too cold for that. The bizarre thing about all of this might not be noticeable to just anyone, but those who know him or have been in his apartment may recognize the clothes hanging up belong to America.

That's right. This clean apartment is America's.

Scared yet?

Don't worry. The world hasn't ended. You've not been drugged and you're not hallucinating.

There is the sound of footsteps for a moment before Tatsumi is seen, wearing a dark apron that he is borrowing from the Northern Lights, and is holding a few folded towels. Off screen he goes again for a few moments, where a cupboard door can be heard opening and closing, before he crosses back and flops onto the couch.


SNAP!

Tatsumi falls sideways and rolls down the couch as it tilts. As soon as he can, he jumps to his feet and darts his eyes around in shock. The werepire relaxes when he realizes it was simply the poor abused couch's leg finally giving away.]

Oh.

Oops.


I guess I forgot about that...

[He sighs a bit tiredly before adjusting his apron and walking off screen again.]

[ That doesn't help his red face at all. Still refusing to make eye contact due to humiliation. He's not even acknowledging his hurt stitches, he's so determined to keep face. Well, as much as he can at this point. ]

'Til I get a new one, anyway.

[ He's not catching on at all. ]

I guess. I used to walk Puppy with the chains, but now that she's gone, I haven't really had much use for 'em.

Maybe later...

[ Which he's replying to, I'm not sure. Probably both.

Pause. Then America turns to face Tatsumi, more curious than angry at this point.

Can you actually, like, transform into a wolf?

I remember asking ya that when we first met.

[ Okay, America's lips can't help but twitch into a smile. He can't stand to be in a bad mood for long. The annoyance still lingers and he'll probably keep bitching about it all week, but whatever. He reaches up to touch one of the weird little hair things. ]

I can ask a doctor for ya. The one who took mine out is gone, but I can find someone else.

[ CONGRATS, TATSUMI, HE'S FINALLY BEING OF USE. The stroking of his ear things turns into petting Tatsumi's head. ]

Man, if you could transform, that'd be so rad. We could play fetch! And I wouldn't have to be the one to run and get the ball!

[ .......he... he had a strange childhood, okay. ]

Sure! The doctors dig me!

[ Except that is a COMPLETE LIE they probably think he's a troublesome idiot who keeps getting hurt/taking all the drugs/getting other people in the hospital. It's the thought that counts. And who knows, maybe he'll actually be successful.

America: a useful manipulative tool if you can stand to have your plans take the most convoluted road possible.
]

I'm gonna have to find a baseball or something! People in Charge can't be too stingy with that, can they?

[ He leans back against the broken couch and continues to pet Tatsumi. I'm now envisioning something like that baseball tournament in Twilight.

What the hell this thread went from like, freaking out to fighting to cuddling. Next thing you know, a shark will come flying through a window.

Well, yeah, you're a werepire. I'm guessing the doctors are kinda hesitant about that one. But I can promise 'em you're not bad and that if you get all blood hungry, I've got ya covered!

[ I once validated a hiatus by sticking America and another of my characters in a bottle together. America will probably end up meeting Karkat. I am the worst person when it comes to avoiding playercesting. ]

I just gotta appeal to them... somehow! I'll think of something.

[ You are a saner person than I.

.......shadows of orcas what even.

[ Awww :( that's depressing. ]

'Course not! That's what people who care about each other do!

[ He interrupts the petting to ruffle Tatsumi's hair affectionately. ]

Don't think we're gonna have to worry about that. I get pretty banged up, but ever since I've gotten my chip out, nothing's been strong enough to really off me. Nothing really can back home, so I dunno if the same applies here or not.

[ I was sober for both Twilight movies. If that isn't insane, I don't know what is. ]

[ America wouldn't mind... except then he'd get bored and probably end up playing with the Lego's on Tatsumi's head while he slept. Best boyfriend ever. ]

We'll have to have a tournament or something! I might not heal fast, but I can jump around on planes and lift cars and stuff! None of those are here, so we're gonna have to improvise.

[ Here it comes. While petting Tatsumi, he launches into his fucking absurd ideas. ]

We could have the super heroes like, use their powers to summon cars so that we can see who can lift the most, and for the flying thing, we'll just have jet packs that we can use to do epic sky-battles in and stuff! I'm gonna have to train though; gotta get back up to doing at least 400 push-ups!

[ America is the master of bushy eyebrows. He was raised by the epitome of bushy brows, after all. ]

I dunno! Any kind?

[ This is a terrible idea. That is exactly why America is excited about it. ]

I've never tried that before! I probably could, once I'm back in shape! Hopefully that won't take too long...

[ His free hand comes up to his stomach: the muscle tone has depleted, leaving him slightly on the pudgy side. Somehow, even though Discedo is practically its own diet, he can't seem to lose the weight. It's a curse.

And wow I just noticed he said "course not" to "would you take care of me." UH. PRETEND IT WAS THE EXACT OPPOSITE... I mentally inserted a "mind" somewhere in Tatsumi's sentence. YES I AM EDITING SPECIFICALLY TO CLARIFY I'M ANAL ABOUT MY WRITING dsjal;rftgh

[ I'm imagining annual contests being hosted. WHO CAN BUILD THE BEST LEGO STRUCTURE ON BUSHY BROWS? ]

I can never lose weight. I dunno why! I go on diets and exercise and everything back home! It's just stuck with me for decades.

[ Sigh. Pause. ]

And it's good to know you're not really dead, otherwise I'd feel creepy doin' ya.

[ America sucks in a breath to make his stomach flat. It's how he imagines it should look!!! ;w; ]

Awesome! Sounds like a plan! I'm gonna be fit in no time, and then I'll be thin and hip!! And I'll be able to lift a building!

[ Exclamation points just seem to be a favorite for these two. ]

[ America glances away. Just. This face. ]

I don't like talking about my weight to them. They always call me fat. Even the fat ones, like Russia. And I'm not fat I just have bad metabolism okay.

[ sob his life. ]

I still don't get this whole werepire thing or how it works or why you can't be a wolf, but okay! As long as I'm not a creeper, I'm good!

[ America snorts. His stomach is still sucked in as he tries to talk. ]

I can take it! Besides, I'll probably end up with something cool. Like a bruise in the shape of a bald eagle. How cool would that be?
starspangledhero: (Awww I wanted to be ginger!)

[ The breath he's been holding whooshes out in a sigh. So much for an illusion of thinness. ]

I know. Because I'm the best and most awesome, they've gotta find something to nitpick at. And my weight's the easiest target!

[ See, this is why they work. Tatsumi is willing to cater to America's ego. Ohhh how he loves to hear how great he is. ]

Well anyway, I'm glad you didn't!

Oh, yeah. The stitches.

[ He shifts slightly. ]

Hurt like a bitch, but I'm starting to get used to 'em. And I've stopped scratching even though they're kinda itchy too! Maybe I can score some better meds from the hospital.

Damn right I could! But I don't, not unless they're threatening the safety of the free world, in which case I gotta intervene because I'm the hero!

[ Or if they attack him, in which case he flips out. But that's another story for other decades. ]

Wouldn't that make it hurt even more? I mean, it's pretty sore, and it hurts when I have to clean the wound.

[ Groping is all fun and games until someone has been stabbed in the ass by a cow. ]
