mayfield_rpg | 07 - [AUField] Destroy All Humans

[A - 2239 Stevens]

[Another day in Mayfield. Hajime is most displeased as he wakes up--he's STILL trapped in Human Undead's form and not his own Joker body. He'd taken that form as a temporary disguise back home, and he had no idea it was going to be forced upon him for such a long time.

Thanks to the needs of this human body, he requires breakfast, so he's in the kitchen attempting to make breakfast...at least until he gets distracted. Continuing to wake up here in Mayfield is such a source of frustration he's smashing most things in the kitchen as he tries to get himself going for the day. Housemates will probably wake up to the sound of breaking dishes or clattering pots and pans.]

[B - Butcher Shop]

[AU or not, Mayfield is still Mayfield, and Hajime would very much like not to get droned...so he's showing up for work today. Unfortunately, he's got a far shorter fuse than usual, and you may or may not get that cut of meat you wanted. His laziness is contributing to the formation of a line complete with a handful of complaining drones, and he can only take so much.

He's just flung a knife at the line. Perhaps he threw it at the drone standing next to you. Perhaps it's flown over the top of your head only to hit the wall behind you. Maybe you've regained superpowers and managed to catch it. Either way...dare you say something to the butcher responsible?]

[C - Around Town]

[Okay, enough work. Hajime is prowling around town, looking for a fight. Any fight. He looks angry...pretty much because he is. Try not to bump into him, because he'll probably punch you unless you're quick. Or go ahead and approach, try to figure out what's got him in such a sour mood.]

[D - Around 2239 Stevens]

[It's late, it's dark out, and Hajime appears to be brooding out in the front yard...and he's just kicked over the trash can for no apparent reason. Approach at your own risk.]

((OOC: Hajime's AU has him embracing his role as the world-destroying Joker Undead and basically left him unable to feel compassion or many emotions outside of his own lust for battle and destruction. He's only satisfied when he's destroying things, and he really hates humans. He'll be a violent brute for the duration of the event. If you've had previous CR with him, feel free to remember it as adjusted to compensate with AU!Hajime being a jerk or if you remember it as it was, he'll just figure he was droned or something that day.))

A jump back will do just fine, and quite easily. She appears to literally be crossing her arms behind her back now- they'd only get in the way, after all.

"I am the embodiment of light, and voice of the blade of evil's bane," Fi states, narrowing her eyes. "And I myself am not without my strength in this form." She needed to know how to take down something despite weakness after all- and if anything, the human body holds more physical strength then her original one. "If it is a battle you wish for, so be it- you will learn not to judge on appearance alone."

But Fi, doesn't he have some of his regains...

[[We should probably figure out battle details if this is going to a fight. :|a ]]

[Arms behind her back? Interesting stance.]

Pretty words, but words do nothing in battle.

[Oh, dear. He only has one regain, and it's a beaut. A strange silver belt's appearing around his waist, and he's also withdrawn what appears to be a playing card from his pocket.]

Only the strength of rage allows for survival.

((Fight's up to you--he's kind of defaulting to it here, but I can have him alter course if need be, no problems. If he uses the belt, he's going to change forms and gain armor plus increased strength and speed. We could Plurk, if you want--I'm Airdra on there.))

[[As it is, it's not -completely- a matter of strength, since her fight style is specifically meant to counter an obvious gap in it. The question is more whether or not it would be possible for someone to even come close to turning his own strength on him. So as amusing as it would be to watch teensie Fi win a match, I like to be at least somewhat realistic about it. :|a]]

"Hn!" A very interesting stance- it looks more like someone prepared to dance than fight. "You mistake rage for 'power'- a mere third of the requirements for true balance..!"

((At this point, he's prone to getting stupid and predictable with rage. He's not going to be a master tactician, and he's already severely underestimating her. She should be able to toss him around some, but I don't know about winning because he's still pretty experienced...he could decide she wasn't worth the effort and move on?))

Balance means nothing.

[He's run that card through his belt now, and you've got a very different sort of being standing there in front of you, Fi.]

Power, now that's everything. And you don't appear to have any.

[[A plan which ties into this post dialogue haha.]]

She appears relatively unphased- 'two-form bosses' are nothing new, really. She does nothing but bow just lightly for a moment in what could pass as a certain step of ballet, before speaking.

"Power is useless without Wisdom to guide it. It is pointless without courage to drive it. Similarily, Wisdom requires courage to exercise and power to support. It gives reason to Courage, which gains strength in power. One cannot be found without at least a small portion of the latter..."

"But when all three are present, true force can be found."

Pathetic human notions. All those words won't win you any fights. Let me show you the error of your ways.

[With a growl, he rushes her. He's going to try a simple punch to the midsection.]

And she's going to...

Dodge. Quite easily and logically actually, almost spinning to the side to turn toward him. "They are neither words of human or Hylian," she counters, again taking a stance as she studies her opponent. "They are the words of the Goddess."

[That first hit not connecting is a bit irritating, and Joker's battle frenzy is slowly starting to build. He growls a bit.]

As though I'd care about this Goddess. If she does not call for battle, then her words mean nothing and her power is false.

[He makes another wild lunge at Fi, this time with a kick.]

And yet another dodge, this time coming with a swift kick to the nose and a flip backward to land out of range.

"It is not the duty of the creator to destroy without meaning- all things have their time; to take life before that point is unforgivable!"

[There's a definite animalistic snarl of surprise as he's rocked backward by that hit.]

I'll take all the life I want--I am Joker! I am DESTRUCTION!

[He's snarling again as he rushes at you in an attempt to clothesline you with an outstretched arm.]

Duck.

Roll to the side. "Then you are no better than darkness itself. And if that is indeed your true nature," she adds, sending a leg against the back of her opponent's knees the moment she's out of reach from that arm, "Then I will stop at nothing to end you!"

Seems like you understand me pretty well, then.

[He might have said more, but oof. Surprise leg to the knees. That knocks him on his back, which in turn elicits quite the inhuman growling noise. He's scrambling to his feet now. Once he's back upright, he's going to try rushing her again. It doesn't seem like he has any particular plan in mind; he's moving like an enraged wild animal.]

There's nothing to say to one moving or acting like this- regardless of if there was however...

As though she'll let you hit her!

Now that she knows it's possible it's easy to get a window of escape from this; this time she rolls not directly to the side but to the side and toward him- to his left perhaps, or to his right, but this time the kick she aims is directly on his foot in mid gait. If applied right, he'll be flat on his face, if only for a moment...

And she herself will be bolting in the opposite direction.

[Hajime makes a rather undignified faceplant as the tripping attempt works beautifully. He starts to pick himself up--

--and then realize his quarry has bolted. He's quite worked up into a battle frenzy now, and he snarls and beats the ground in frustration once he realizes she's gone. Looks like he's going to be hunting for a new sparring partner.]

They can both console each other? (Ahhh the issues that come with 'SUDDENLY, EMOTIONS'. ;u; )

They could! He'll apologize and possibly refuse to make eye contact next he sees her~

Hahah yes. ;u; (I don't have a plurk, um. ;-; )

It's cool! We'll work it out!

I think that plan works out- that or she gets him to stumble a bit before she flees.

Works for me!

Whoo! Gonna drag it out a slight bit depending on conversation in the meantime. -u-

Yay!

Whoo! It's kinda fun to play with leg/waif-fu Fi, I'm gonna miss this event. ;u;

I'm having far too much fun playing Joker!Hajime, so I know that feel...

Heheheheehe

Re: Heheheheehe

Whoo!

This was the safest outcome. XD nods
