Void, I know you hate violence, but if whoever killed Plum is gonna come at me, I'll have to fight them! I don't want to make any first moves, though... ~Crimsonjin
*Void looks concerned*Someone has been murdered, and you believe yourself to be next? Do we know who has preformed this heinous act? I’m sure if we talk to them we will be able to convince them to leave you be… and if not… steps can be taken…
( @crimsonjin apologies for forgetting to @ you)
Maybe we don’t know who did it, but I’m not taking chances!
I… could protect you if you wish… while I will not harm whoever has taken this path… I do have some tricks up my sleeve… though I would prefer it not come to that…
I know you’re a peaceful guy. I think I can protect myself-!
*Void nods* You just seem… on edge. I know that you can protect yourself, but I also wish no harm to come to you.
Listen, buddy. I’m crazy. I’m a guy of blades, yeah. I lose my mind on coffee, I’m still a nut job off of it. I’m absolutely wicked. *Then he whispers.* But I’m scared shitless of death. Always was, always will be. *A look in his eyes said he was rabid, but he wasn’t. He looks sleep deprived.*
*now Void looks really concerned* Come… I will offer you what protection I can for a while. You require rest. I will not allow anything to happen to you while you do so. *He offers Crimson his hand*
No, I— I don’t need sleep, I need justice—
*Void’s eyes soften* Prehaps. But to seek justice when you are so clearly exausted would be unwise.
I’m not tired-!
*Void seems looks at Crimson for a long moment, then seems to make a decision. His hand is surrounded by a starry glow* I… must apologize for this. *He places his hand on Crimson’s shoulder, and the light extends thoughout Crimson’s body. It fills Crim with a relaxed sleepy feeling.* But you MUST rest.
Wha….? *His eyes are half closed. He looks up at Void.* But…. I’m not— *He falls into Void’s arms, eyes closed, fast asleep like a child.*
I… hope you will forgive me this later. *Void walks home, Crimson in his arms, and takes the sleeping color up to his room. Void tucks Crim into his bed and sits beside the bed on a beanbag chair, ready to protect Crim from whoever he was afraid of*
*That is, if said person shows up. Crim could just be crazy, like he said.* //i assume several hours pass? unless they don’t
[Kayjin pulls himself up onto Crim’s doorstep and knocks on the door, causing dried flakes of plum-colored blood to fall off from his hands. Three knocks echo into the home.] Heeeyyy Criiim… I’m all cleaned up, now! I left my trident at home! I just want to talk! Hehehe… [Kay brings out his trident and points it at the door in preparation.]
*Hearing the knocks Void makes his way to the door. He knows that he should be ready for an attack, and to some extent he is, but he must try talking first.* Crim is sleeping. Do you wish him harm?
Hmmm… How about: It’s none of your business, space Fabio!!! [He hoists up his trident further to point it at Void’s face.] Now get out of the way before I see if your blood is just as sparkly as you are.
I promised protection- *He brought a glow to his hands* So it is my business. Now, please stand down so we may discuss this.
Like hell I’m gonna back down!!! I’m here to amp my count up to 34 and secure my future kills from Crim. I run a monopoly on murders: Two killers and only so many living people, so it’s time to eliminate the competition!!! [Kay jabs forward in an attempt to pierce Void in the face.]
*Void barely dodges, the trident grazing his cheek. Glittering black liquid drips from the gash* Why do you wish and enact such suffering on others? What pain has driven you to this? *he reaches out, attemting to lay a glowing hand on Kay*
Because… [Pulls back his trident and puts all his power into a thrust, the prongs piercing Void’s abdomen and splashing Kayjin with glittery black fluid.] The thrill of a kill is addictive. [He shoves Voidjin off his trident by kicking him onto the floor and steps past him into the home.] Now then, time to bring my score to 35…
*For a few moments Void is quite in a pool of his own blood.* You… could be so good… I don’t understand… *He collapses* Do… not hurt him… *Void reaches out his hand toward Kay, but it falls as the last bit of life fades. His hair and eyes fade to black*
[He stops in his tracks, not looking back towards Void. He sighs.] That’s not true… [He carries on up to Crim’s room.]
*And lucky you, our poor victim wakes up in cold sweat.* Oh, I had the sickest nightmare. *He mutters to himself, and gets up. He’s still huffing, shaking from his bad dream.*
[Loud footsteps can be heard coming closer and closer to the room. After couple moments of silence… BASH!!! A white trident is sticking out of a significant-sized hole in the door before being pulled out and a face peers into the room. It’s Kayjin.] GUEEESS WHOOO!!! [He reaches in and unlocks the door before kicking it open.]
*Crimson looks shocked, but only in his eyes. He stares at you for a split second, before charging into you, slamming you to the side, and running for his life. He doesn’t say a damn thing.*
Oh no you don’t!!! [He begins to chase after Crim with his trident positioned in front of him.]
*He gets out the front door and slams it shut to buy time. He runs off from there silently. He’s too scared to scream, it would only lead Kayjin to him faster.*
[Kay opens the door, but stops for a moment at the sight of Void’s blood before continuing on after Crim, trident aimed and in hand.] Don’t think your feet’ll get you very far, Crimsonjin!!!
*He is trying to play cat and mouse. He has gone back inside Void’s house. Look inside, and you will find, the next victim of your fun time.*
[After a while of searching around, Kayjin finally makes his way back to the house. His murderous energy hasn’t dissipated.] Where are you??? The longer you hide, the more gruesome I’ll make your death!!!
*Crimson is actually hiding under Void's bed, gripping a knife. He almost looks ill.* *He whispers to himself.* Never did I think this would be my morning present....
