Stone cold eyes

ΜΙΑ πέτρα κρύο κοιτάζετε μέσα στην ψυχή σας. Δεν μπορώ ποτέ να πάρω από ανθρώπους πια, εκτός κι αν δεν μπορείς να δείτε εμένα, αλλά οι ήττες του ολόκληρο το σημείο του τα πάντα, δεν είναι. A stone cold stare into your soul. It's all I ever get from people anymore, unless they can't see me, but that defeats the whole point of everything, doesn't it. ~Iota Gorgonia (Part of Mafordan)

Hiss and makeup. [Akane & Iota]

[akaneautumn]

Akane was still on the prowl for blood but still hadn’t found anything remotely suitable to her needs, it was making her angry. Stalking down another corridor Akane came across a familiar cloak, “Iota?” Akane’s surprised voice asked, she hadnt seen the girl since last time she got dragged into one of these games… Hmmm how very interesting.

[stone-cold-stare]

Iota sighed, few has passed her by ignoring her presence, whether by accident or not she did not know, but she was enjoying the peace and solitude of the hall. Finally thinking that nobody would pass her she sighed in relief until she heard a familiar voice, her breath hitched when she realized it was that blasted girl from her previous kidnapping, oh yes, she remembered the voice. Pulling her hood down slightly she nodded in recognition, hoping the infernal child would leave her in peace, she was unhelpful at best at each encounter and didn’t want it to continue further than it had to.

[stone-cold-stare]

Hiss and makeup.

"I’m trapped here, with people?" She became Irritated as she walked in no particular direction not bothering to look at her surroundings. She wouldn’t be here long, nobody would want her there anyway, it must have been a mistake she couldn’t and wouldn’t do much anyway, she didn’t even have any recollection of why she was there. Pulling on her cloak which lay beside her she unwrapped a piece of cloth from her wrist and placed it around her eyes, as part of her daily routine and headed down to nowhere, having her snakes to guide her around anything that may be in her path. She sat on a curb, curling up miserable, still within range but slightly hidden, waiting for any further instructions to get out of there. twitching every so often as she heard more people move in and out of the vicinity. To stop her from scaring people off she put her hood up, hiding away her snakes as she waited for to explain what was happening, even though she truly didn’t want anybody near her she knew she might have to put up with someone.

Georgina was tired of this place. Nobody here seemed normal at all.  Well, that Mari woman was nice enough, but nobody else was human. Georgina decided to go back to her room and take a nap.

Before she reached the bedrooms area though, Georgina spotted someone sitting down by herself. She couldn’t make out much beneath the hood and cape, but she seemed human enough. Being sure to make as much noise as possible Georgina walked up next to where she was sitting and sat beside her.

Georgina turned to face the mysterious girl, noticing the blindofld for the first time. 

Well, this was awkward.

[stone-cold-stare]

Iota heard a scuffling noise, a person was walking towards her, clearly trying to make a lot of noise as if whoever they were thought Iota would have slept in a hallway like a wanderer or a vagrant, she lifted her head up a fraction so one of her snakes could peer out from under the hood. It appeared to be a child walking towards her, she wondered what a child would be doing in this place, if, what appeared to be a female child was in the same state of unknowing that Iota herself was or if she was one of the unknown adversaries that had taken her from peace and solitude. She could feel her snakes rile up and move gently under the hood as she unintentionally worked herself up. She sighed quietly and decided to say something first, after all she wouldn't be able to make her way out of there if there were others around without a death risk, she needed at least a polite acquaintance. “Did you need something?”

To stop her from scaring people off she put her hood up, hiding away her snakes as she waited for to explain what was happening, even though she truly didn’t want anybody near her she knew she might have to put up with someone.

Ssssso tired of this shit {Iota & Yata}

Iota groaned after waking up in an godforsaken unknown place with a blindfold tied too tightly she had hastly made her way over what seemed to be other bodies to a clear area where she made her self as comfortable as possible on a bench. 'Thank goodness I had my snakes to guide me around… whatever this place is” She thought to herself, pulling her hood back to her head while trying to loosen the blindfold slightly but her snakes kept getting in the way “fine, be like that then” she said angrily to herself as she slumped against the bench in a most unladylike manor. Hearing a rustle and the sound of stone on metal she spoke loudly, but with a tired element to her voice “Whoever you are, you may as well join me, i’m sure i’m not that interesting to look at…” She knew that even if this were to be her potential kidnapper, either she or one of her snakes could kill them in an instant, so she was feeling slightly less tense, for the situation she was in.

[purpleimmortalcrow]

『Upon walking around in circles for what seemed like hours on hours, Yata soon grew tired of returning back to the same place over and over. All they seemed to have been doing was meeting different people, and whilst it was good to know the people you’re surrounded by, it could also get pretty boring and claustrophobic quite quickly. Speaking of which, however, they noticed a young girl sitting on the bench, or rather looked slumped there, almost as if she was in the same position as they were. Hearing her address them, they felt a little conflicted for a moment or so, before walking a little closer, stopping in front of her, but not actually seating themselves yet.

      “How can you tell someone’s coming towards you with a blindfold so tight across your eyes it may as well deafen you too.” With a smirk and a slight chuckle, they tried to create light conversation with the girl, “So, who might you be, miss?" Too light a conversation? Nah. They figured they had best get their mind off the fact that their medication had worn off and that they were still missing the rest of the pills that aided the control of their power.』

[stone-cold-stare]

Iota's eye twitched, she was not expecting that as the first thing the creature before her said, she hissed lightly hearing the creature chuckle, she was not in the mood for a joker, not in this place, not at this time, not ever, her mind was set. "My name, to you, happens to be none of your concern... or should I not have answered, after all, I can barely hear you over the tightness of my blindfold" She snaps sarcastically turning away from the creature, whoever this person was, she was not in the mood to deal with them, her snakes still in protest at the blindfold keeping them still.

【With a slight exhale in relief that the girl before Shiro was relatively nice to her, but also to the fact that she wasn’t injured too much, the Poltergeist gave the other a small smile, before the expression faded at the question being posed to herself. Of course, before she was going to ask for help, but now she felt inadequate in comparison to this blinded young woman. Withdrawing into herself a little, Shiro perked up the courage to answer the other.

        “I.. I am fine…. Thank you… It is just…" She paused, stifling a sob at the mere thought of losing her precious Sir Arthur. "I… I have lost my dearest friend, Sir Arthur.. I have looked everywhere you see, and I simply cannot find him…" Her ears drooped sadly as she held onto the fluffy white tail of hers, playing with it nervously. "I do apologise if this is bothering you at all…"】

Iota mentally sighed at the pauses between the small child's speech, it felt most tedious to keep up without snapping at her unnecessary meekness after all the snakes were no longer in sight so there should have been less, if not nothing that the child before her could physically know, but she smiled none the less. "And in what relation is this 'sir Arthur' to you child?" she asked, fully turning her now cloaked body towards the girl, wondering if she looked as timid and skittish as she sounded.

Ryuu thought for a second "Iota, I’d like to try something.. i’ve never tried it with someone who cannot see before, but i think it may help. It’s only temporarily though, I’ll need Esme back”. Ryuu placed Esme gently on Iotas shoulder and with one hand on Esmes back and one on iotas shoulder he began to concentrate. "god please don’t freak out..this can be kind of weird" Ryuu was weaving a very intricate spell from memory, his mother had done it to him once before so he could see what it would be like to fly. When he’s finished Iota should be able to see what Esme can through her  own eyes. "the only problem is that Esme can get a little distracted but usually she’ll try to help by looking where you’re going, if you want to look somewhere in particular you’ll have to ask her though." and with that ryuu finished and stepped back nervously, even esme looked up at iota ready to leap away if she got scared. "Did it work? It might not if your eyes have been damaged. If you don’t like it then i can stop it again.. i just thought it might help”

"I- uhm, alright then I guess" She says as she feels small eights and claws on her shoulder, which she guess to be the small dragon, she raised her eyebrow when he said not to 'freak out' but smiled to assure him that she would do no such thing. Now the feeling of looking through somebody, or rather some other beings eyes were peculiar at most, being able to see what they saw as if an extension of your own sight, she smiled. "This is extraordinary dear Ryuu, however in the world..." She trailed off, smiling petting the side of the small dragons head while pressing it against her own in affection. "This is most wondrous however have you managed it?" Iota asks, marveling at the sight of the world through different eyes.

[stone-cold-stare]

Sneks on a plen! {Shiro & Iota}

Iota had awoken a long time ago with no idea where she was, or how she had gotten there, but instead of fumbling around she had simply taken off, as she usually did in times of desperation and confusion. She had taken down her hood but not her blindfold, she knew that there were others held in this place, voluntarily or against their will as she was, she had yet to find out so she didn’t want to turn them to stone forever, luckily her snakes would easily tell her where there were branches, leaves and steps. She knew she was in an amusement park and that there was no visible way of escaping which irritated her, how dare anybody take her away from her home and force her in this abominable place, she sat down on the nearest bench silently seething while stoking her ‘hair’ at least she technically had some company, even if they were only snakes.

[gentlewhitepoltergeist-blog]

【Shiro had been searching for hours upon hours, looking for her beloved Sir Arthur, but to no avail. Eventually, she ended up feeling the urge to give up for now, and hope he’d turn up at some point. She wasn’t ready to leave this place without him, and looking at her surroundings, it didn’t look as though she’d be leaving for a while anyway. Feeling a certain dread rise up within her, she took a few steps forward, before giving something of a defeated sigh.

The small Poltergeist looked around herself. Perhaps there was a small corner she could curl up in and take a rest for a while, at least until she regained energy to start looking for Sir Arthur again when she was rested. She didn’t want to fall asleep without her stuffed toy, but she may have had to at this point. It was just then that she caught a glance at someone she hadn’t seen before. Correction, someone that she had seen unconscious before, but now awake. Perhaps this girl was able to help her! It didn’t seem likely, but she’d have to try! For the sake of Sir Arthur…

Shiro slowly paced towards the girl and on closer inspection, she noticed the other wearing a blindfold. The red clad female gave a slight cough to grab the stranger’s attention, offering a small polite bow,

        “E… Excuse me miss… I apologise for speaking out of line… But…" trailing off, she soon realised she couldn’t ask for help straight off the bat, so without hesitation, she changed her words quickly, "… But I could not help but notice you unconscious earlier… Are you feeling alright? I… If it is not too personal for me to ask…!"】

[stone-cold-stare]

Hearing a small cough Iota turned to face the direction it was comming from, hearing a small childs voice she raised her brow, not that the child would see it, as to wonder why there was a child in a place like this, from the description her snakes had given her, it was a rather dismal and pathetic excuse of a human's theme park, whoever was trying to recreate it surely had not done a good job when they modeled this place. iota hummed at the seemingly nervous stutter in the childs voice as it spoke 'the snakes must be making her nervous' she thought as she put her hood up as the child was talking "Yes, I am feeling quite fine now thank you, still slightly disorientating as I can't be fully made aware of my sorroundings, but in the best position I could be in now" She says. "What about you child?"

"I see… so what you’re telling me, is that i’m stuck in a theme park with no way to escape with other clueless creatures… perfect" She said, resoting to sarcasm in the end, today was not her day, and by the looks of things, it was not many other peoples days either. "Have you by any chance tried to find anothe exit, apart from the ‘dangerous’ goo covered enterance?" she asked crossing her arms over, she didn’t know how long they would be there or even how many ‘they’ were, but she did know that she was not good with other creatue and sooner or later, she would want to see where she was, and knew that it would mean most likely killing at least one of these people, even if by accident.

“That’s exactly what I’m telling you, welcome to the club.” Joel responded dryly. He could tell the woman wasn’t happy with this turn of events, he wasn’t either. He doubted anyone was really though some people seemed better at hiding it.

She asked him about other exits. He shook his head before realising that was a stupid gesture. “Uh not much good news on that front. I’ve looked around a few times, by myself, with others. Haven’t found anything I’m afraid. There’s some pretty tall walls surrounding this entire thing. I don’t know how tall they fully go. Someone I was with touched the walls and there was…and incident.” Joel flashed back to Yata falling out of the sky. ‘Someone has put an awful lot of effort to keeping you caged in. It’s almost impressive.’ The Storm said sincerely, Joel couldn’t bring himself to agree with her though.

[stone-cold-stare]

Iota rubbed her temples, all she wanted in life was to be left to her own devices, how hard was it to comply to that wish, she already had to start another 'garden' and now she was here, in this dismal excuse for a humans theme park. Iota huffed, from the creatures description it looked like they were stuck in this place "fine then..." she mumbled to herself, she could deal with an unknown number of people who could potentially crowd around one another for safety and end up getting killed by eachothers hands, it was fine... "Could you direct me to the nearest bench, if you will" she asked in a stoic tone, not alerting the creature infront of her to the discomfort she was feeling.

[stone-cold-stare]

I'm going to shove your sunshine right down your throat {Iota and Felicity}

[stone-cold-stare]

Hearing a child like voice Iota visibly slouched,  she felt relieved and confused at the same time as to why there was a child walking around, she stood up with slight difficulty, having her blindfold on and faced towards where the childs voice came from. "Hello" she said in a slow tone as not to scare the child off, if the child was in the same position, albeit able to see, most likely, she didn’t want to scare the child.  ”Who are you?” she asked in a polite tone, it was not often she had a chance to talk to another person, let alone a child without being screamed at or run away from, so she was going to enjoy it while it lasted.

[musical-ghost]

She watched as the person stood up and faced her. She looked them up and down, taking in the long white dress and green cape, which was nothing like her own jumper and jeans. As what she had deduced to be a woman began to speak Felicity noticed that she was blindfolded.

"My name is Felicity" she said wondering why the woman was talking so slowly "Do you need help with removing that blind fold?"

[stone-cold-stare]

Iota nodded, Felicity, it was not a name she had often come across, but not all that unpleasant. Iota smirked inwards when she heard the creature, if it was anybody else she would have given a quick witted and sharp reply, likely to repel any who even dare think about it, but as she was in the presence of a child, she decided to go with something softer. "No, if I were to remove this blindold, you would not live to tell the tale" she said, but feeling it was slightly rude she finished "But it was nice of you to think so."

[stone-cold-stare]

I'm going to shove your sunshine right down your throat {Iota and Ryuu}

[stone-cold-stare]

Iota smiles “Indeed, it’ll be nice to know what we’re looking at” she says standing up, but not going anywhere, she lets one of her snakes down from her hood to guide her, only stumbling slightly over every few steps, glad she could step over the majority of the bodies without harm falling to herself or the creature she is stepping over “I’ll keep that in mind” she says, smirking slightly.

[myeternaldance]

Ryuu burst out into the sunlight after finally finding the exit. This place was huge, and yet he couldn’t help but feel he was still trapped although the collar didn’t help. Ryuu looked back over his shoulder to make sure his new friend was still there and that’s when he noticed the blindfold. How on earth has she made it all this way without hurting herself wearing that? Ryuu walked back towards iota "hey Iota, I’m really sorry but i hadn’t noticed the blindfold, i should really have offered my help"

[stone-cold-stare]

Turning her head to the side as he spoke she shrugged, tucking the snake back into her hair "It's perfectly fine, I didn't have much trouble at all, just knowing where to step I suppose". Taking a few uninterrupted steps towards him she smiles "Where shall we head off to then, you can lead the way... for obvious reasons" She can feel the small amount of sunlight on her smin, but notices the dreary atmosphere around her, almost as if wherever they were being held just oozed dismalness.

[stone-cold-stare]

[stone-cold-stare]

Iota nodded “Although be thankful they are unconscious rather then departed” she mused, standing up and walking a few small paces towards the newly aquainted creature.

"where do you propose we venture off too Ryuu?" Iota asked, wondering how big the place they were stranded in truly was, not being able to see it first hand.

[myeternaldance]

Ryuu thought for a second "i guess out of this room would be a good start, although outside might be a good place to start so we can see how big this place really is" and then maybe we can find a way out of this place ryuu thought as he stepped over the first body "mind your step"

[stone-cold-stare]

Iota smiles "Indeed, it'll be nice to know what we're looking at" she says standing up, but not going anywhere, she lets one of her snakes down from her hood to guide her, only stumbling slightly over every few steps, glad she could step over the majority of the bodies without harm falling to herself or the creature she is stepping over "I'll keep that in mind" she says, smirking slightly.

[stone-cold-stare]

Iota smiled felt the weight of the small dragon shift and a small breee bush against her face, so she guessed that the little dragon was trying to fly. 

"Hey hey now, calm down there, don’t want you taking flight and leaving your poor cr- owner all by his lonesome now, I know it’s exciting, but not all new people are nice." she had almost called the male a creature by accident, that would have been odd to explain, and more likely, not have been explained at all. "Call me Iota" she says with a small smile, holding the small dragon out in what she guessed was the direction of the male.

[myeternaldance]

Ryuu thanked Iota, he took esmeralda gently in his arms and let her run back up to his shoulder. "my names Ryuu, its very nice to meet you Iota" Realising he was back standing surrounded by unconscious bodies Ryuu decided he should really make a move. "would you like to get out of here? all the unconscious bodies in here freak me out"

[stone-cold-stare]

Iota nodded "Although be thankful they are unconscious rather then departed" she mused, standing up and walking a few small paces towards the newly aquainted creature. "where do you propose we venture off too Ryuu?" Iota asked, wondering how big the place they were stranded in tuly was, not being able to see it first hand.

I'm going to shove your sunshine right down your throat {Iota and Felicity}

Iota groaned, her head felt as though each individual snake was biting her scalp, she was not feeling good, turned over wondering why her head hurt so when she realised that she was laying on the floor rather then the bed she fell asleep on the night before ‘perhaps i rolled off in my sleep’ she thought to herself as she sat up. She rubber her face and opened her eyes to realise she still had her blindfold on, and it was tied tighter than usual “Odd…” she mumbled feeling the floor around her, she could hear murmering and snores around her “What in the name of the gods is going on” she said, changing position until she was on her knees, she felt for her hood and sighed with relief to realise it was still on, she let her hand trail down her face until she came to an unfamiliar feeling on her neck, it was cold and quite unnoticable until she felt it with her hand ‘well this is getting rediculous’ she thought. turning around she could hear footsteps near her position, she froze up incase it was her apparent kidnapper and waited for the person to come closer.

[musical-ghost]

After waking up with no recollection of where she was or how she got there Felicity had decided that the best course of action would be to check her surroundings. She wasn’t worried about her lack of memory, amnesia wasn’t a new thing to her. She was more worried about the 13 random strangers that lay on the floor around her. Were they alive?

She walked around a little bit more looking at everyone as she went, occasionally floating really close over them to see if they were breathing or not.

After the fourth or fifth person Felicity heard rustling somewhere behind her. She took a sharp intake of breath, span around and noticed someone sitting up a few metres from where she was stood. She warily walked towards the person unsure of what to expect

"Hello?"

[stone-cold-stare]

Hearing a small child like vioce Iota visibly relaxed, she could hear the breathing of other creatures nearby, 'one of them must have been this child' she thought to herself. Confidently she spoke out "Hello, and who might you be?" she asked, keeping her posture straight and her head down, as to not expose her face, she was unsure of how others would react, many did not react well in the past so she had decided to hide herself as best she could.
