sweetdevil | 34th ♫ | even if a thousand nights pass, i'll stay by your side

Not a real mutiny. Like, an emotional mutiny. A mutiny against the principle of the thing. Like...

[ She trails off and lets that hang in the air briefly and then she flaps her hand dismissively. ]

Oh god, why the hell are you listening to me? I'm fucking concussed. I'm talking a load of shit.

[ i can't believe the grimm knocked some self-awareness into her. ]

I think it's interesting shit!

[The true victim here, Penny's vocabulary. RIP in fucking rest.]

Also, I think if you're concussed you're supposed to keep talking to stay awake? I think.

[Does either of them have any actual medical knowledge, signs point to no.]

Penny.

[ Suddenly (apparently) deadly serious, Erina claps a hand onto Penny's shoulder. ]

You don't have to spare my feelings. I've never articulated an interesting thought in my fucking life. I talk nonsense from AM to PM.

Yes? I- what?

[Is this more concussion talk.]

Oh no, you must be hurt a lot worse than I thought.

[Let her see the wound again, LET HER SEE IT.]

Edited (department of redundancy department) 2019-11-05 01:28 (UTC)

Uuuughghghghgh, fine.

[ Erina whines theatrically but makes no effort to get away – in fact she tips her head forward a bit towards Penny's to let her get a better look. ]

What's the prognosis, doc? Am I a dead girl walking after all?

[Penny combs through Erina's hair as thoroughly as she can, checking the visible wound and gently searching for any damage she missed earlier.]

I don't THINK so- I mean, it doesn't look bad? But if you're that confused, it might be really bad internally.

I dunno about that, I'm confused most of the fucking time. I thought you woulda picked up on that by now.

[ Is she helping? She's helping. ]

I figure if I was gonna drop dead though, I'd be swooning as we speak. So uh, it's probably fine? Apart from the blood.

[ It's fine, she's fine, this is fine. ]

What? No, see, this is what I'm talking about, you're always saying amazing stuff.

[She takes another look at the wound.]

Maybe you're hurt so bad you can't tell how badly you're hurt-

[She's getting worried.]

Maybe I should carry you? We could move faster that way.

[ IMMEDIATE fucking response: ]

Absolutely. You definitely should. Great idea, in fact, oh noooo...

[ She pantomimes the world's fakest swoon and slumps all up in Penny's grill like a horrible little feral girl. Awful. ]

Look at that, I can barely stand. Who knows if I'll even be able to take another step.

Oh no-!

[What do you mean, fake, this is a serious medical situation.]

[Penny immediately shifts weight and scoops Erina up into an honest to god princess carry, so mission accomplished on that front, apparently.]

Hang on-! Or try to.

[And she's just off and running. It's a surprisingly smooth ride, honestly.]

[ I don't have an icon that properly conveys the look of barely disguised glee on Erina's face as she tosses her arms around Penny's neck, but just know it's there. In fact, she seems temporarily rendered speechless by lesmotions (lesbian emotions).

Temporarily. ]

Holy shit, you're fast. Tell me you can fly too.

[Technically it's also a regular lesbian motion, even at high speeds.]

No? I think father was working on something before I came here, but- hang on. More, I mean. If you can.

[Look around, Erina, at all these big-ass trees. Or normal sized trees, But they'll still work for what Penny's about to do, hopefully.]

[With a mechanical clicking sound, the pack on Penny's back pops open and two of her swords flip gracefully out, twirling midair for a second before harpooning forward at high speed, thunking into two distant trees.]

Hang on-!

[Penny kicks off powerfully as the wires connecting her to her swords tighten, flinging her and Erina through the air like a massive slingshot.]

[It's not exactly flying, but it is a crazy high longjump done in style.]

[ I really wish I had a more eloquent response to this, but no: it's just screaming.

Or more precisely, Erina alternating between gasping in some air to keep up with the velocity they're going at now and screamlaughing at the top of her lungs. It's a pretty even fifty fifty split between exhilaration and sheer terror. She's having a good time. ]

[Penny probably tries to ask if she's all right, but. Honestly. They're going god knows how fast through the air in a series of leaps and bounds taking them through spaces between trees that seem way too tight for them to pass. Any attempts at actual communication are lost to the winds until they land.]

[Which, eventually, they do; the forests petering out into hilly grasslands, and one abnormally large hill. The steel-and-glass dome that formed a hub of activity and something of a safe haven for those dumped into this world, parts of it overgrown with moss and plantlife to the point that it almost looked like part of the landscape. It had been long abandoned when people first started arriving, and restoring it was a constant process.]

[But it was a safe spot for the recently concussed, and medical supplies were available.]

Okay! Okay, we're here. How are you feeling?

[ If she wasn't already woozy from the violent head trauma and all, a trip like that would've knocked her for six anyways. Even with Penny at a stop, the world's still spinning and Erina closes her eyes to make it stop for a second. It's giving her an even bigger headache than she's already got. ]

Uugggghhhh. [ eloquent! ] I'm gonna Hurl. This is Hurl City. [ A pause as she hiccups and then coughs. ] Oh no, wait– I'm good, I can hold off on the upchuck for now.

[ stop talking about puke oh my god ]

[Sorry did you say "physically support me as much as possible? Because that's what Penny's doing. She'll do the princess carry again if she has to.]

Are you sure? We can take a second if this is still Hurl City.

[ Believe it or not, instead of playing sick again, Erina waves her off. ]

Nah, I'm good. We're pulling out of Hurl City and heading for Concussion Station.

[ Erina straightens herself up as best she can and heaves in a huge breath. ]

Alright, I'm probably good to walk. But if I like, keel over and take out an entire crowd of unsuspecting passers-by, I totally warned you.

Concussion Station is the worst public transport service.

[It might be a dumb metaphor, but dang if she isn't willing to try running with it.]

[Erina might be able to walk, but. Penny just kind of. Places a supporting hand on her back.]

I appreciate the warning! And I'll catch you if you look like you're about to hurt any bystanders.

In general, or with my girlish swooning? Like, if I pick a fight with some rando because he looked at me funny, are you still gonna leash me or just let me go unhinged? Important questions.

[ Talking a bunch of dumb shit is how she keeps her composure in front of cute girls. ]

With the swooning. If you're picking a fight with someone they're probably a jerk and deserve getting beaten up by both of us.

[There is no flower holding here, there is only asskicking.]

I mean unless it's a misunderstanding because of the concussion? Or it looks like you're actually going to kill someone. Or hurt yourself, also because of the concussion.

Dude, you're so ready to fight like, all the time, I dig it. [ said as if Erina herself is not always squaring up for a fight. ] But no big, I'm not ready to go swinging at any fools just yet. I'll let you know if that changes.

[ A thoughtful hum as she thinks it over again. ]

You really think I could get myself wrecked?

I am always combat ready.

[Said with just a hint of pride.]

Maybe? I know you're really, really strong, but there's always the possibility of someone stronger. ...Also you were just about to puke and possibly faint, that makes it slightly more likely than usual.

But if it happens it'll happen to both of us because I'm not letting anyone wreck you without going through me first!

[Penny maybe don't sound so cheerful about that last part.]

Oh my god, I have a hot bodyguard. This rules. I'm feeling so important and also protected right now.

[ ERINA, FOCUS NOW FLIRT LATER ]

You're VERY important and extremely protected! But it's because I'm your friend, not your bodyguard.

[Though honestly for Penny it's close to being the same thing.]

[And hang on, there was something possibly important in there.]

Hot?

[ An extremely long pause as Erina mentally replays the words that just came out of her own mouth. ]
