ϡ - Chapter Seventeen; in which one becomes a dragon [action]

[folklorist]

[ Anyone in the vicinity of Community Housing 7 will, at that moment, hear a very loud roar coming from apartment 22 on floor 5. The glass of the windows in the kitchen will shatter and go flying and there will be some smoke coming out from the windows. Also if you come to investigate you'll see deep claw markings in the door's entry way. Whoops Helios is honestly sorry about that Frederic. He'll apologize later for the mess and for waking you up, he was just startled, hence the roar which would have been a yell but you know...translations and all. He had to leave before he got any bigger and destroyed the entire apartment. At least the houses fix themselves.

There is a golden scaled dragon in your town today Luceti and it looks vicious, but honestly it's pretty derpy and harmless. Well besides his tail, which he still hasn't gotten control of just yet. You also might feel your room shake as he walks by your house/apartment complex. He's about the size of a large house and he's wearing glass which apparently changed with his size, the Malnosso like to joke don't they? You'll also see his tiny golden green tipped wings beside his more larger golden ones. It's a clue as to who it is but he'll answer you if you ask. This dragon is on a mission, albeit a futile one. You might see him walking a bit in the woods and eventually ending up in front of the Bakery. Sweets...he wanted some and now he can't even fit through the door. He'll be sitting on his hind legs, tail curled around him and a clawed hand rubbing his chin. Indiscreet? Never, not when baked goods are concerned. He's trying to devise a way to get in there...but without doing some serious damage there are no options. No matter he doesn't want to alarm anyone so sometime later he will make his way down to the lake and there he will be, talking to himself, and staying there for the majority of well...however long this decides to last. He's honestly not going to be able to make a voice post with huge vicious claws anytime soon. Besides he can probably be heard from anywhere anyway; his voice carries nicely in this form. ]

Oh for goodness sake I don't know how they deal with being this large. [ There's a pause and a snort. ] I suppose the experiment is still going on then. [ Another sigh though it sounds more like an annoyed growl. ] But they can change their forms into humans. I wonder if I can just get that right...and then there is the ring. [ He will just be babbling don't mind the brooding dragon, lounging beside the lake, tapping a clawed hand into the ground folks. He is merely thinking and when Helios thinks it's usually good...sometimes. But you might want to watch the tail it's swaying erratically because that thing has a mind of its own. ]

((ooc; So you can meet him at any point in time! The time continuum is pretty broken in this post. While he's walking, at the bakery, or in the woods by the lake just specify I guess. Also he's going to stick out like a sore thumb anywhere he goes anyway. I'll be replying with isthemyth for icon convenience. Also replies will be delayed since I has class~))

[Kouki is reeling in the Bels, the best he can. It's worrying that his defences are slipping during this experiment. He might need to see Naoya.]

...don't want that.

[He want to live life normally with his friends and family, and made his choice for that.]

[ Helios is eying him, carefully, almost waiting for the other to reply again. But he can tell something changed within the young man. Was it some sort of possession, perhaps? Possibly an experiment...but he's never met him before so it was hard to tell. He'll remain silent for a few moments. ]

[de_bel_survivor]

[He looks really apologetic, guilty. He absorbed them, he should be responsible.]

I'm very sorry... [For slipping, and letting them take control and give commands.] I have to go.

[And stay inside his place as much as possible, it seems like.]

[isthemyth.livejournal.com]

W-Wait! Ah, please could you tell me what just happened? [ Because honestly he's a bit confused by all that. ]

Are you...are you alright? [ Helios is concerned that's not really something you see everyday. ]

[de_bel_survivor]

[Pause.] ...They're not happy because I'm not a real King. [Altering and turning Babel over didn't win him any favour from the demons.]

I'll be alright...just need to be even more careful. [And maybe seek out his cousin.]

[isthemyth.livejournal.com]

They? The one who was trying to control me, you mean? [ He'll look at him still an uncertain wariness in his eyes. ]

You don't seem like you'll be fine. But--I can't stop you I suppose. Will you at least tell me your name?

[de_bel_survivor]

[He nods. They're still caught up in their vague, remembered hatred, leaving them unfocused.]

I'm Kouki.

[isthemyth.livejournal.com]

Kouki, hm? I'm Helios. [ Even if their first meeting wasn't exactly...pleasant he hopes this is only because of the experiment. ] And you're certain you're alright?

[de_bel_survivor]

Yeah, I'll be alright. They get unfocused whenever they're caught up in their hatred, so I can reel them in.

[isthemyth.livejournal.com]

But it must be very hard on you, I'm sure. Isn't there something anyone can do? Then again this might be because of the experiment...

[de_bel_survivor]

If it's too hard, I can ask someone I know for help. [Naoya.] And I have them since before I came to Luceti, so it's not the experiment.

[So he believes, according to one of the experiment.]

[isthemyth.livejournal.com]

Ah, well that's certainly good. [ He'll even give a sigh. ] You have. I see that must...well I can't even imagine. But it's good to have someone you can confide it to help at least.

[de_bel_survivor]

[Nods.] I know I can count on him, and he knows what he's doing, too.
