02?. [Action/Text - Fourth Wall]

[Kimblee has just kind of accepted this sort of thing, regarding those odd weekends where, for some completely arbitrary reason, everything is beautiful and nothing hurts (assuming that no one happens to get in the way of the explosions he's usually laying down); however, this time around he hasn't seen Archer all weekend, he's been unbelievably agitated for some reason he can't work out, and about the only saving grace is that he seems to have awakened in the Lake of Rage area today.

He can't say he minds.

He's got his gloves off today, if anyone is in the immediate area through either intent or chance; surprisingly, he isn't transmuting...obviously, though what he's doing makes it rather clear that something's going on before too long - he's never been any sort of particular genius when it comes to chemistry, but he knows certain things when he sees them, and he's currently picking up rocks along the shore, appearing to assess them as he holds them before a flash of blue fires off and he throws the result into the water.

It's surprisingly easy to get a good transference going, to get sodium out of the rocks by the waterfront; of course, sodium in water is known to make one hell of a bang. Admittedly, it's not a very aesthetically pleasing bang, but he's working on it, okay.

Of course, there are some other signs in the area that his activities haven't been quite so docile (if blowing up the surface of a lake filled with terrifying sea serpents can be considered docile); there are some rather impressive swaths cut into the ground by what look like something ripping it all up from within. However, for the time being he seems pretty content to be bored, seeming to have calmed down from the earlier...fit that caused all that; he'll be having at the whole sodium thing for a while tonight.

Granted, for those not in the area, he'll be showing up over the device later - not via video, but via text, as per usual.]


I trust you've all been enjoying playing with your toys. Some of my most prized ones weren't returned to me this time around; I'm assuming this means they're still in the region somewhere.

I imagine I'll find them eventually.

However, for the time being I find that I really can't complain; the most relevant part of what I can do is functional again, and if I had to select between having my abilities with no enhancements and no abilities at all, choosing the latter to spite the former would be tantamount to solving the problem of a low doorway by cutting off my head.

Indulge me in my curiosity, however: were things like this weekend to be something controllable, something you could do at will, what would you bring here and what sort of abilities would you retain from you world - given power like this on a regular basis, what would you do with it?

[Stopping for a moment to have a think, Emmy comically places her hand under her chin as she thinks, secretly relieved Kimblee took her initial confession so well. He hardly seemed phased at all! But, then again...in comparison to the things that happen in his home world, she probably seemed rather...

...

...quaint.]


...I...well...

...

...you do my make-up better than I ever could, for one thing.
snapandscoot: (oh i say)

1/2

[NO SHE'S EVIL AND HORRID AND VERY BAD AND STOP MAKING THAT FACE AT HER]

!
snapandscoot: (grrrrrrrrrrrr)

Don't you even start with that...that...charming-ness! I won't have it!

[...

...

...

/blush]


You're just....really good at make-up! Fantastic, even!
snapandscoot: (Hmph)

[alksjdadjsaljd]

Mr Kimblee...

[...she has missed you so much, you...sod. Even if you do like to make her blush far too much.]

You're...far too good to me.
snapandscoot: (unimpressed tbh)

[personal profile] snapandscoot 2013-06-04 11:20 am (UTC)(link)
Well then you're obviously not thinking right!

[Hmph!! End of story!! No more!!

....

please no more though she can't handle any more]


You confess something, now! I've had enough!
snapandscoot: (i'm not intimidated!!)

[personal profile] snapandscoot 2013-06-04 11:32 am (UTC)(link)
[....

...well. That was certainly unexpected (and a bit more serious than make-up). Emmy blinks in surprise for a moment, her previous flustered mood disappearing - but only for a moment.]


...ah...

[All of a sudden, her boots are fascinating, not to mention making her cheeks go even redder than before.]

...well, if we're playing the confession game, then...

[...really, really fascinating.]

...I...would have said yes, without hesitation.
snapandscoot: (quaint curiousity!)

[At the reminder, Emmy can't help but laugh softly. It's probably better that they don't languish on the that awkward topic anyway.]

Well, I've had quite enough of strange masked men for a while, so you wouldn't have to worry. 

[A pause - Emmy gently bites her lip, eyes downcast.] 

...he's....is he...back here?
snapandscoot: (Waiting)

[There's a moment before Emmy speaks again - she takes her time to process the information, trying to work out what her feelings are. Pleased? Disappointed? The last time she saw Descole, he'd narrowly been stopped from destroying Monte D'Or, in a rather sickening manner. Of course, at the time she wasn't surprised, having been stripped of her memories from Johto, but now... 

She settles on cautiously disappointed, despite the knowledge that she knows she'd give anything for the chance to speak to him again. The way they used to. 

It's a hard pill to swallow.]
 

...that's a shame, since....well, all my memories have returned now that I'm back, and... 

[.....] 

...it's rather obvious he likewise remembered nothing - I'll put it that way.
snapandscoot: (Anger)

[personal profile] snapandscoot 2013-06-05 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
Well, considering he recently tried to bury us and an entire city in sand, I'd say he wasn't feeling too friendly, no. 

[Emmy's expression darkens considerably - she was angry before, of course, but now that she's back here with all her prior knowledge....it's a different kind of anger, fueled more by pure disappointment than righteousness.] 

He...he manipulated the Professor's best friend from childhood, a man he thought was dead, into doing these terrible things, into hating all his previous friends, just for his selfish goals. I mean, I know I can't really speak considering I'm also being...manipulative, but I'd never hurt anyone! 

[Well. Mooks and other assorted nasties don't count, of course.] 

And I'd certainly n-never try to kill anyone, it's just....it's just plain wrong! He's so selfish! If he was here, I'd....I'd... 

[Obviously unsure about just what she'd do, Emmy simply throws her hands up in the air and lets out a cry of frustration.] 

He was so kind to me, Mr Kimblee! He...he asked me to....and I said yes... 

[The sudden explosion of blushing should hopefully work to fill in just what Descole had asked, as Emmy declines to elaborate.] 

...and now everything is ruined.
