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.]

[He sighs a bit tiredly before adjusting his apron and walking off screen again.]
( action )
Caught Red handed.]
I- I was just trying to find some tools....
... do you have any? The couch broke.
[IGNORE THE FACT THE ENTIRE PLACE IS CLEAN AND YOUR WEREPIRE BOYFRIEND IS WEARING AN APRON AND YOUR CLOTHES ARE HANG DRYING AND EVERYTHING ELSE IS FOLDED AND PUT AWAY.]
( action )
WHAT DID YOU DO?! IT'S... IT'S CLEAN!
[ He pauses at the shirts. His shock seems to be abated for a moment while he smells it, but he goes right back to freaking out. ]
Hey, that actually smells good-- BUT NOW HOW AM IS SUPPOSED TO FIND MY STUFF?! WHERE ARE THE CUPS?!
( action )
You don't like it? I put the cups and dishes away, in the cupboards, after washing them. I found some more in the piles of clothes around the couch.
I could label where everything went, if ya want me too or just bring it all back out. It was just hard to fix the couch with all the stuff everywhere.
( action )
[ Size 4 font forever. And yes, he is indeed running around the room. ]
That's not the point! Now I dunno where anything is 'cause I put it in a place where I knew I'd find it but I didn't have a specific place to put it so now it's all chaos, man! Chaos through order and Pinesol!
[ America concludes his whiny rant by falling irritably on the couch
which further cracks under his weight and he falls off.
He ends up on his back, staring in confusion at the ceiling. ]
Oh yeah, the couch is broken.
( action )
[He appempts to follow America but when the panic becomes running around frantically, Tatsumi just stops]
Calm down! I just cleaned things up, it's not like we're being invaded or anythi-
[He pauses, watching America fall over, almost as if it were in slow motion. It's very hard to hold back the laugh that pushed upwards from his gut. Oh god. Priceless.
Instead, Tatsumi wonders over and offers a hand]
Ya. I cleaned up so I could get to the couch so it can get fixed but I couldn't find any tools.
( action )
America continues to stare blankly at the ceiling for a bit. ]
Tools are under the bed. Unless you moved those too, then I've got no idea.
[ Pout pout. He frowns at Tatsumi's hand, but still ends up taking it. Of course he mostly gets up on his own because GOOD LUCK HAULING HIS FAT ASS TO HIS FEET. Still, it's the thought that counts. ]
Man, why didn't ya ask me?!
( action )
Besides, you were sleeping so soundly and I didn't want to wake you... though, I tried once or twice but you just said cute things and I guess I should have waited for you and stuff but...
[He turns away, looking towards America's room]
I didn't see any tools there... but then again I found a lot of weapons and got distracted by them and put them away in your closet.
( action )
[ SIGH. He's be more annoyed if you didn't stroke his ego by calling him cute. That's right, keep up with the sweet talk and he'll stop pouting. In the mean time STILL PRETTY IRRITATED. ]
They were in the black duffel bag with the rope and chains!
[ ...which are used for his stable work, before Tatsumi gets ahead of himself. ]
( action )
[Oh god, please don't tell me they're having their first little quarrel. lmao]
You can just organize it all back the way you had it, then and I won't ever clean again!
[He crosses his arms to pout back but the mention on chains and rope DOES CATCH his attention]
Why do you have chains and rope?
[However he looks like he is on the verge of being insulted... though the idea of bondage is keeping him on the fence about that.]
( action )
Fine! I will!
[ No he won't. He's too lazy and making an apartment that messy is too much effort. America's about to sit on the couch with a huff, but he's not stupid enough to fall for that TWICE.
Oh wait yes he is.
America is now seated on the floor where he's fallen off the couch, again. Now he's flushed with indignation and embarrassment. But he doesn't acknowledge it. He just sits and fumes silently for a moment.
His annoyance deflates a bit with the question, becoming more confused. Isn't it obvious? ]
I work at the stables. What else would I have them for?
[ Yes this was a genuine question. ]
( action )
You know... I could just break all the other legs off and it can sit on the floor.
[Tatsumi shrugs.]
Lots of things. Stables, moving stuff, chaining animals or people down... I don't know.
( action )
'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.
( action )
You want a new one? We could go looking.
[He comes over and flops down next to the other, sighing. The obliviousness is kinda cute and making Tatsumi smile more]
You never used them for anything else? I could think of a few tings... but I bet you're still tired from last night and all. I could show you later...
[Actually, Tatsumi is the one who is tired.]
... or I could always just be your new dog. I mean, I am a werewolf after all. I can pretend, ya? Ha ha ha!
( action )
[ 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?
( action )
No... but my hair kinda looks like ears. Everyone always asks me if they're ears, at least. Ha ha! I also normally have really cool and sensitive hearing but I guess I can't do that while I have that chip thing. I wish I could get it out... but I don't know how or what to do.
It'd be cool if I could transform, though, ya? I just wouldn't want to have to deal with all that full moon stuff. But I'd still wear a collar for ya, dog or not. At least then the chains wouldn't go to waste, ya?
[Smiiiirk]
( action )
[ 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. ]
( action )
[At the touch, his hair wiggles, as if it were to get away but the werepire gives in and leans into the petting, eyes half lidded]
Ya... a doctor would be good. You'll really talk to one for me?
[FINALLY is right! Then again, at the same time, there has been bunches of sex as a bonus so it's all good but this is a GREAT step forward!!]
Then I don't have to worry about dying again and I wouldn't have to sleep as much and I could hear stuff like I used to.
[By this time, Tatsumi has just melted and it most likely leaning against America or has his head in the nation's lap.]
We could still play fetch... if I got the chip thingy out I could run fast enough to catch it, I bet.
[ ; w ; Poor America.]
( action )
[ 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. ]
( action )
[IDK about anyone else but Cube just :| at America. BUT IDK IF AMERICA COULD MENTION IT I WOULD APPRECIATE IT TOO CAUSE RGTDGJNHKJNPLAYERCESTishBADFJBGDNJBNFKJN]
I don't know. I asked them for some ear plugs and they didn't give me squat but who knows. If the scientists like ya enough, maybe they'll give ya a ball.
[I never seen Twilight all the way I lost intrest... BUT I NEED TO WATCH SHUTTER ISLAND. OMFG I FORGOT. LET ME GET IT RIGHT-FREAKING-NOW!!
No sharks. Just SHADOWS OF ORCAS and strange men with harpoons. OH GOD!!!
I watch some weird crap, ok? Plus, this thread is awesome. Tey're so totally retarded and gey. It's amazing.]
( action )
[ 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. ]
( action )
[I don't mind it, personally but I remember being made fun of for it before s-so I avoid it at all costs now.]
You won over my heart... how hard can it be for them? Just.... make sure not to die right before you request it, like I did, or they'll use your death as an excise not to give you anything.
[He pouts, remembering that. He kinda doesn't like thinking about it, actually.
I don't know about "saner" but I do know that I am very uncultured and live under a rock... so it tends to make me appear innocent. *THUMBS UP*
THE RETURN OF THE ORCAS... PART 2... or something.]
( action )
'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. ]
( action )
I know I'm really strong normally... It'd be cool to see who was stronger, but I'd just heal right away, so it wouldn't be too fair, I guess.
[I think you've unlocked some kind of achievement with that one. lmao]
( action )
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!
( action )
You can lift cars? What kind?
[He is patient and listens and even chuckles a little before opening his eyes, remembering something]
Oh yea! That reminds me!! Tetsu said he wanted to see you lift a building. He got all excited and stuff and went on about how you could do it. Think you really could? I could help ya get back into shape. I'm a pretty good trainer and stuff!!!
