autidcte:
realization hits ♡♪⁉ as a painful fist, making him tense and trembling, as those laughters become louder and the blow in the barrel dies. he can’t shoot him, even if he really wants to. he can’t let a monster like that live without someone controlling it - despite the one in control is even more of a monster. the star is shaking, disgusted by the fact that andré actually has a point, desperately looking for another solution, any other solution to resolve that mess. but the idea of the failure, so tangible rising behind him, fills his body and mind just with utter despair and panic; he’s failing, and the whole world is risking a cost too high because of him.
« sh-shut up, i !! » he begins, just to be immediately interrupted by the black lum, suggesting him - with such a sticky and irritating irony - to duck. knowing well that he will never actually have the time for that.
♡♪⁉ has barely enough time to turn as much as it’s needed to see, with the tail of the eye, the attack already incoming. he takes the full strength of the blow, that throws his light weight right off of andré and hurls him distant, near the trees and the overwhelming darkness between the trunks.
he lands badly, but manages with a somersault to end up on his feet again, barely feeling the pain thanks to his wooden body. one hand grips the other arm, thinking of charging a blast towards the creature - a probably useless move, but he has to try at least-!!
that is, until he suddenly falls on his knees. ♡♪⁉ pants, shaking even stronger now as he realizes, he can’t stand up. he begins to panic, unsure of the motive - is it because it is a new body? is it the darkness around him? is it having an effect on his soul…?! he gasps, pointing his gun at the creature, trying to do something.
« come on, come on, please please please-!! » he gasps for breath, charging a blast that will never be ready in time, trying to move the legs that are shaking under the desperation of his will.
Oh, this is just nice. This is just so genuinely, actually sweet and god fucking damn dandy! The Black Lum’s laughter grew even louder as the puppet was forced to move away from him, Just as the other falls, Andrè slowly and calmly stands up, wiping away some dirt from his pants and giving a quick look to the...
...uuh.
The thing. Over him. Head tilted, staring at him- it? They?? ...staring at them, Andrè was quite certain that they reminded him of a certain someone. WHo would’ve thought!
“Oh now that’s just fucking delightful.” he giggles, barely turning around as the other stars pleading for his attack to be charged a little faster... And his smile widens, feeling the darkness surrounding them moving.
The creature’s arm rises, ready to slap the little ‘hero’ away.
