Who: SOME DUDE IN YELLOW (and his shouta ghost)
Where: The main room of Orion dorms (and, eventually, just outside, if you need an excuse)
When: Day 83, Morning.
What: Intro~

*The new blank has promptly confiscated the largest knife he can find, and his holding it with a fair amount of confidence for someone who has no memory of how to use it. It is not time to systematically check all the other rooms in the dorms. He pushes the doors open quietly, and seems quite prepared to stab anyone if necessary.

And, for those who can see such things, there is a small ghost child floating behind him*

*loooks at shouta. Loooks at Watanuki. Plants the butt of the spear against the ground and leans in*

Tell me something, first.

[... another step back]

Only if you're not going to hurt me! I'm not talking to anyone who's just going to slice me up for helping them!

[sympathy_of_the.insanejournal.com]

It's a simple question. Are you food?

[ghostduster.insanejournal.com]

What!? No! I'm a person!

[sympathy_of_the.insanejournal.com]

So why do you smell like food?

[sympathy_of_the.insanejournal.com]

*putting a hand over his nose*

I smell it too... I smell it...somehow...

[ghostduster.insanejournal.com]

You too ... this is starting to get ridiculous.

[sympathy_of_the.insanejournal.com]

Why... it's so good...

[sympathy_of_the.insanejournal.com]

*ignoring shouta and pulling you over to him*

My 'team' is complaining about not having enough food. You're much larger than a fish.

[ghostduster.insanejournal.com]

[... pulled in. s-stares for a long second, then starts struggling]

People can't eat people! I-it doesn't matter what I smell like!

No? Aren't you full of meat?

Re: 1/3

[sympathy_of_the.insanejournal.com]

Ah-- wait, don't--!

[sympathy_of_the.insanejournal.com]

You should be just as edible as anything else around here. Person or not.

*heeeeee's not letting you go. Infact that spear is getting kind of close*

[ghostduster.insanejournal.com]

[That tasty smell spikes noticeably as Buttercup's distress goes up. Struggling hard!]

That doesn't make it any less wrong! Let me go!

*gosh you're positively mouthwatering. I didn't actually know I could crave something*

I don't know what 'wrong' is, when you're hungry. You eat.

[sympathy_of_the.insanejournal.com]

No... WAIT!

*Ghost can't grab Kira, but is inserting himself between the two of them just as Kira starts to raise his spear*

[sympathy_of_the.insanejournal.com]

*......pause. Looks at shouta with the mildest curiosity and mostly annoyance*

[sympathy_of_the.insanejournal.com]

It...it's my body and I don't want you eating people with it! Leave him alone!

[ghostduster.insanejournal.com]

[he had closed his eyes as the spear went up. Now he opens them again. Still shaking like a leaf.]

H-he's right! He's -- if you're hungry I'll make you anything you want. But don't kill me. P-please.

*considers both, looking through the child to Buttercup, and back*

This is the 'fear' you mentioned?

[sympathy_of_the.insanejournal.com]

Yes. He's scared. He doesn't want to die.

[sympathy_of_the.insanejournal.com]

*back to Buttercup*

You smell better when you're afraid, whatever you are. You should learn to control that, or someone will make a snack of you soon enough.

*releases him though*

[ghostduster.insanejournal.com]

[stumbles back. the tasty smell is settling back down to normal.]

It does? I -- I can't even smell it, much less control it!

[sympathy_of_the.insanejournal.com]

*r-relaxing. Can sense his person doesn't plan to kill you anymore*

It really does smell... I'm hungry, now.

[ghostduster.insanejournal.com]

... I. I don't really know what something like you would eat. But I could make you breakfast and see if that helps.
