giving you what you want

[carneouspuella]

[ WHO ]: Visi and YOU!
[ WHERE ]: The apartments - your choice of your own, an empty one you were exploring, or the hallways!
[ WHEN ]: 3AM on April 6th
[ OPEN/CLOSED? ]: OPEN!
[ RATING ]: PG for now. Will change if anything happens.
[ WARNINGS ]: DEATH, posthumous dismemberment, gore, uncomfortable descriptions of Fleshchildren.
[ NOTES ]: IF YOU ARE PLAYING A HUMAN FEMALE AND TAG THIS!! Please specify if you want Visi to see you as inhuman or not! She will attempt to kill and take bodyparts otherwise!


[Her head is lying back in her own apartment, the long black locks slowly turning to gold. There is no safe place to contain it right now, and she can only hope it will be all right for her getting back to it.]

[Her entire body is flesh, now. She is not wearing her shift. The only thing she has with her is her butcher's knife, held securely in the flesh at the end of her arm. She hasn't quite got the hang of hands just yet, but she's getting close.]

[Up and down the corridors she goes, her feet making little sticking sounds as she walks. Every so often, she'll stop, listen, and then collapse into a puddle and attempt to slither under the door of an apartment.]

[Maybe you've just seen her do this. Or maybe you'll wake up to find her staring down at you while you sleep.]

[Who knows.]

Go ahead, take these feeble and useless body parts!

[ Saki's sleeping on the couch instead of in her bed that night, for a given definition of "sleeping" — most of the night has had her staring up at the ceiling, counting all the little noises and glaring at the growing water stain. Sleep, when it comes, only touches her in waves, dozing and then not.

She's not sure which one it is when a movement catches from the corner of her eye. Wholly, utterly silent, she sits up, the coarse and thin blanket she'd been using for warmth falling across her knees. ]

Get out, [ she grinds out instinctively, fumbling for the nearest lamp as she says it. The menace in her tone is more than a little defeated by the sleepiness of her voice, rubbing at an eye with her free hand. ]

yes saki /cuts u ded

[carneouspuella]

[Forming herself back to her humanoid shape, Visi only looks in the direction of the sleeper. Her smile is difficult to see on a head that's only flesh, but her teeth do glint in the light.]

It would be easier if you just go back to sleep.

[She doesn't wave the knife just yet. It hangs by her side. She walks a little closer into the lamplight.]

You have such lovely flesh...

why you do this :(

[sank]

Aw, if you wanted to knock boots, you should have started with dinner.

[ She sees the knife, it's difficult not to, her eyes keep being drawn back to it as it gleams in the low, dusky light. The tape was supposed to keep intruders out — is this... thing a resident? Saki frowns, thought weighing down the corners of her mouth.

Regardless, she tries again. ]

Out!

because i need your arms more /stick em om +v+

[carneouspuella]

[Saki, please. There's a child here. A child who takes another step towards her.]

Please. I would not like this to be a struggle for you. It will be sharp and painless if you simply sleep again.

I need your arms.

[sank]

I need 'em too. [ Okay, this child is majorly giving her the creeps. Saki slips behind the couch, as if expecting it to protect her. ] Why don't we go outside and find you two sticks? It's just like building a snowman. Fun, right?

[carneouspuella]

Don't be silly! [Visi actually giggles and it's a sweet, little girl's giggle. It's like she's having fun, like she bears Saki no ill will.] My flesh is better than sticks, but it is not as good as arms.

And I need yours more than you do.

Please.

[She starts to walk around the couch.]

[sank]

Sorry, [ she gives half a shrug. She appears wholly casual in her feigned apology, taking a step closer to the door of the kitchenette. The only giveaway is the shakiness of her steps, never taking her eyes off Visi. ] I need them for eating. Uh, look, I can give you the number of this cop, he won't be any trouble. Scout's honour.

[ SAKI YOU WOULD BE THE WORST SCOUT EVER ]

you know what we discussed, inhuman! <:

[etudes]

[ Kotomi has the same blank expression on her face even as she sleeps. It makes her look sort of weird, like she's hardly even human. More like a robot that deactivated itself for the night. But she is actually sleeping, pretty deep too. God knows what kind of dreams a girl like Kotomi would have, but she sure is having them right now. Because of her deep sleep she doesn't even notice Visi slithering into her room like that, she just sleeps on.

It's only because the dream ends a few moments later that she even wakes up, slowly opening her eyes only to see.. ... something..? .. Huh.

Her reaction is incredibly slow. She blinks once, twice, not even moving a tiny bit, as if she can't identify what just entered her room and move at the same time. ]

best friends

[carneouspuella]

[Visi isn't easy to identify right now. In fact, except for a slight widening at her hips, she looks identical to Vice without her head on. Not that Kotomi has seen either of them until today, but that's neither here nor there.

Visi watches her wake up. Usually, she has an impeccable ability to pinpoint a human, and especially a human girl or woman. But this place confuses her. There are humans that are no longer humans, and she is worried about taking their flesh without her mother to save her should anything go wrong. They muddle things and make things hard to see.

And she can't see that Kotomi is a human girl, not right now.]

Hello.

I didn't mean to wake you up.

[etudes]

....

Good morning. Or.. night, I guess.

[ PRIORITIES. Even though she still doesn't know what's going on, she's still just going by the fact that if someone speaks up to her, she needs to properly greet them! But her brains are still stumped on the mystery of "Who's that Pokémon Weird Blob Thing?" that she's just blinking as she sits up to look at Visi more. ]

Um.. your voice is a little familiar.

[carneouspuella]

[Visi sits on the edge of Kotomi's bed, blinking at her with her little red eyes. She smells of blood and meat.]

My name is Visi. I am a Fleshchild.

[etudes]

Ah.. I think I talked to you before. [ She blinks. ] We talked about bullies.

[ Another long pause, it really takes some time to think about all this.. ]

I didn't know you looked like this though.

[carneouspuella]

[She remembers that conversation. Familiarity glimmers in her eyes and she nods in response, but her reply, when it comes, is about her appearance. She gives a soft laugh.]

I have a head, but it wouldn't fit under the door.

inhuman!

[caricaturing]

[ If Visi was to enter Mary's apartment, she would find the young girl kneeling in a chair at the kitchen table, drawing on it with a crayon. Flopped on the table across from her, Red Eyes watches on in interest. ]

Hmm... You're right...! We need more colors. But red was all I had on me... Maybe Garry has some?

[ Red Eyes seems to notice that they have a visitor. Blinking, Mary turns to face the entrance. ]

Ah...! Hello!

implying Mary is a real girl in the first place!!!!!!!!

[carneouspuella]

[Visi pulls herself up into her humanoid shape, taking a moment to withdraw her knife from within her flesh. She holds it at the end of her little 'arm', the tip wrapped around the handle in a tight grip. Nevertheless she doesn't hold it threateningly; just safely and securely.]

Salutations!

[Her smile falters. She blinks.]

... I do not know what kind of child you are.

SHE IS, SHE IS...ah...her nose just grew 6 inches...

[caricaturing]

A girl child! [ comes the blithe reply. Hopping down from the chair, she claps her hands together when she sees the knife. ] Oh! You too, huh? ...wow, yours is much bigger than mine...

[ Utterly unconcerned with Visi's unusal appearance, she approaches the fleshchild and shows her the palette knife proudly. ]

See?

don't worry the blue fairy will come

[carneouspuella]

A girl? [The red of Visi's eyes flashes mischievously, and she steps closer. But before she even gets close to Mary, he little wet steps falter and she stops, disappointed. This isn't a human girl. What a shame.

This disappointment does not last long, however, before Visi reaches out to touch the tip of her 'arm' to Mary's knife.]

It's like my scalpel.

[caricaturing]

Yaaaay! They're just like, just alike!

[ She doesn't seem to notice Visi's disappointment. Putting her knife away, she reaches out and tries to take Visi's..."arm" and seems confused as to how to hold it. ]

Ummm...! Well, come on! Let's play!

[carneouspuella]

[Visi manages to make the tip of her arm into an approximate hand. It doesn't have space between the fingers, and so it's kind of flipper-shaped, but she slots her 'thumb' against Mary's and curls the rest of it around her. Her flesh is slightly damp and meaty to the touch.]

Sorry. Hands are hard.

Forward dated to after Rin's post!

((Here, for reference!))

[Yosuke walks down from the fourth floor in a sort of... daze. He doesn't really have any idea what he's going to do when he gets there, what he can say or what he'll even think or feel.

Saki is dead.

Again. Saki is dead again.

He was here and she was here and somehow something had killed her again.

He can't focus on anything else. He can't work on anything else. He doesn't even wonder why the stairwell is innocuously empty. It's never been empty; there's always been something prowling it. But now...

Now he's alone.

And he doesn't notice how ominous that is.]

[carneouspuer]

[ he had taken too long in leaving his sisters room, and there were already people there prying about. his dear sister had secured her new pair of hands, but he had not arrived there in time to meet the boy who's hands he could take.

so now it was a matter of waiting for him to come down.

at the bottom of the stairs, Vice stands in complete and utter silence. at his side, brushing against his dirtied smock, and held firmly in his flesh, is his knife. ]

[andallforone]

[Sucking in a deep breath, Yosuke walks down from the second floor to the first.

... And stops.]

... Hey, look... I'm not in the mood for any trouble. [He says it half-heartedly, barely even looking at Vice, not seeing his flesh.] I just want to go see Senpai. I... I have to see her. So... please just move out of the way?

[carneouspuer]

If you are talking about the host girl, she will not be moving from her position any time soon, so there is plenty of time for you to see her.

I will not move out of the way, until I have secured what I was called here for, then you are free to go, of course.

[andallforone]

[Yosuke stares at him. The shock that widens his eyes makes Vice's physiology escape him for a moment, though he takes it in.]

What? Host girl - are you talking about Senpai?

You - [He takes a step forward -] - what the hell do you mean by that?!

[carneouspuer]

She is dead, was this knowledge not known to you?

The dead cannot move. There is plenty of time for you to see her.
