sora

(no subject)

[an eerie fog has quickly overtaken a portion of Radiant Garden. if one happens to notice the odd, wet sound of metal beating on flesh and investigates, they will find Sora, dressed unusually (third outfit), in the middle of beating what appears to be a dead dog repeatedly with a pipe. though this may seem oddly cruel for her, a closer look at the dog will explain things somewhat. Sora's expression is full of fear and panic; she clearly has no idea what's happening or why instead of her sword, she summoned a simple, rusty pipe. she doesn't even notice the faint static coming from the radio in one of her vest's pockets. please, do be careful out there.]

(ooc: another early halloween costume, silent hill protagonist get. reposting after deleting it before oops. set during daytime, though the area is also quite dark for daylight hours, aside from the fog. lamp posts will be flickering occasionally, there may be the sound of movement nearby, though nothing will attack; for now any Silent Hill monsters that show up around Sora will be focused entirely on her thanks to the costume.)

No kidding...

[s-sigh.]

How long should we stay here? What if we leave and they're right outside?

Then we'll fight our way through them and get back to the apartments.

[She's going to take her hair and separate it into two sections and start twisting them together. ]

Right. D'you want some help with that?

Yeah, that'd be nice.

[Because this certainly isn't an easy or quick job.]

[Sora's not really adept at braiding or anything, but they don't need perfection right now!]

[psh no she's not even really braiding so much as twisting. She just doesn't want them loose. Though for such loose, long hair, it's extremely strong and healthy.]

[she's kind of amazed by all the hair. if the monsters weren't still a threat, she'd probably ask Riku about it!]

[She'll have time later, when things aren't after her.]

I wish I could at least cut this a little shorter.

It won't let you?

[braid braid twirl the hair whatever.]

Nah. Grows right back immediately, and just as long. No matter how short I cut it or how fast.

[There is a great big pile of silver hair somewhere right now.]

Weird!

[....huh, she's pretty sure she recognizes that somehow. oh well, she can think on it later.]

[Riku recognizes it as exceedingly annoying. But anyway. as soon as they have most of it twisted together, she's going to tie it together near the ends. At least this way it'll stay more or less in one piece.]

[she stands back and looks over Riku's hair to make sure there's not too many loose ends, then looks back toward the door and bites her lip.]

Ready?

Ready.

[She says this after she's wrapped her hair over her shoulder a few times.]

Okay...

[pipe is being held tightly in her grasp again, and then she goes to open the door.]

[Riku puts herself as close to Sora as possible without being in front of her or particularly in her way -- just close enough that she can jump into a fight if needed.]

[it'll be completely silent when they head back outside. the radio doesn't react, there's no sound of footsteps or dragging or anything. just silence and fog.]

[... Riku's going to force her way in front of Sora, just in case, looking around very carefully in case something springs up out of nowhere.]

Riku... let's just get going.

[she says it barely above a whisper, like speaking too loudly will bring everything to them.]

[She nods and starts moving, headed for the quickest route out of this world area as possible.]

[as they go, the radio static starts up again, still fairly quiet. there's sniffing and growling from nearby and two silhouettes in the distance. more dogs.]

[Riku holds her hand out to Sora, more in an attempt to calm or distract her than for her to take it. She makes a motion for her to keep moving. As fast as possible.]

[she makes a noise in the back of her throat but keeps moving, barely taking her eyes off those silhouettes. they're shaped just slightly different than the previous ones, and though sniffing and growling, don't seem about to launch through the fog at them.]

[Rest assured, Riku is prepared to keyblade the fuck out of those dogs if they come at them. She's just trying to keep quiet so she doesn't provoke them.]

[thankfully, they manage to pass without incident and the radio quiets again once they're far enough. Sora will just be letting out a relieved sigh.]
