♚ ishtar [ ♥ ] † 2nd † [ game ] video
[ Ishtar looked a little worse for wear, but she seemed to be holding on. The past week had been a bit of a disaster to deal with. She wasn't expecting to be chased by monsters and running around like a madman. She was glad that it finally looked better now, even though it probably wasn't. ]
Does this happen often? You know...monsters on the loose, and stuff?
[ She mused. She didn't know how else to approach this situation. ]
Because this is going to be one hell of a stay if it happens often.
[ She raised her brow. Her expression suddenly changing into a more concerned one. ]
Is everyone okay? If anyone needs help dressing wounds, or healing then I can offer my abilities. They're not great, but I can patch you up real well? If you need anything at all, please tell me. I don't mind helping around and about.
Elian, are you alright? Gaara, I haven't seen you at all since the attack. Tell me your location at least. Duzie, I know you're around somewhere, but be careful alright? Hei and Yusuke, you guys are fine right? Sorry I got you guys in a little trouble there when the monsters attacked.

[ action ]
We're going back up when we get the chance Duzie. If there are people there then I am going back for them.
[ She mused in a serious tone. Ishtar was not going to leave anyone up there if people were still up there. ] You'll come with right?
[ action ]
(Figures. When are you ever gonna learn?) [He squeaks back at her. He didn't really think she learned anything from being at that facility.]
(Who else is gonna save your ass from the monsters?) [Though she's fighting better than he thought she would.]
[ action ]
You know me, lives are important. We're not leaving stragglers. I'm not that heartless to leave people behind.
[ She poked his face. The bat was just as cute as the cat form, so she had no problem with it. On the other hand, Pico seemed to be not be enjoying the new bat, but he stayed nestled in her hair because he was still spooked. ]
It's not like I'll die or anything.
[ She mused sighing. ] I think it would be safer to have you with me just in case there's a huge monster that I can't you know....take on.
[ Oh what was that word again? Right, 'reassurance' ]
[ action ]
(You can't save everyone, princess. You're a real martyr sometimes, you know that?)
[He tries to bite her back. First the patting, now the poking. He's going to get something out of all this annoying prattle.]
(Don't get yourself killed, stupid.) [He won't let her die, not as long as he's around.] (It's not exactly fun.)
[ action ]
I can try. There's no harm in trying Duzie.
[ She replied. Ishtar moved her hand away before he bit her. She didn't let him easily bit her. ]
I won't. It's not like I'll enjoy facing death again.
[ She shrugged standing up and pushing the chair in. ]
No it isn't. I can agree with you. I have never felt so sick in my life before, so I'll take your word for it, Duzie.
[ She poked him again. ]
[ action ]
Maybe when she's awake, because she didn't resist him at all when she was asleep. Ohohohohohoho~]
(Again? What do you mean again?)
[Take it from someone who's already died twice. He stays latched on her shoulder.]
(Where are you running off to this time?)
[ action ]
Duzell, you really need to stop creeping on Ishtar like that. She might just wake up to it and you'll be in trouble :\ ]
Ah, well that's a story for another day.
[ Whoops, she totally let that slip. Ishtar avoided the subject completely. ]
We're going to the upper levels. I'm checking for people, of course.
[ action ]
So what if she catches him? Why would he be in trouble just because of that?]
(You’d better spill it, princess. Did you die too?) [His squeaks sound angry now.] (Damn it, you weren’t supposed to! Why didn’t that moron save you?)
[He gets a free ride while she climbs up all those stairs. Besides, it sounds like they have something really important to talk about.]
[ action ]
She'll just poke fun out of him and drive him crazy the way she usually did. ]
About what? There's nothing to talk about. Let's keep going.
[ She avoided the subject again, ignoring his question. She didn't need to tell him anything if she didn't want to. He'll have to pry it out of her later. ]
Well looks like we'll be kind of busy.
[ She shrugged, walking up more, while the bat gets to chill on her shoulder. ]
[ action ]
She's doing a great job driving him crazy right now. Her avoiding it is all the answer he needs. What the fuck was she thinking! He didn't sacrifice his life so she could die! That was what he was trying to avoid!!]
(You're not getting away with it, Ishtar.) [He smacks her cheek with his wing.] (You're gonna tell me later, or else.)
[ action ]
Ishtar did not want to dwell on that subject. It left a sour taste in her mouth, and she would rather not talk about it at all ]
I didn't do anything
[ She replied without batting an eye. If she wanted to really lie, she could.
Ishtar wasn't fond of it, but she didn't see why she had to worry him any further. She took the smack to her cheek without much expression. She only brushed her finger across the small red mark that formed. ]
There's nothing to tell, Duzie.
[ action ]
Lucky for Ishtar, he agrees this isn’t the best time for a talk like that. He’ll bug her again later. What’s more stubborn than a bullheaded princess? An arrogant vampire king.]
(You’re a shitty liar, you know that?)
[She doesn’t think he knows her enough to know when she’s lying? He’s not stupid.]
(Go do your thing already. I’m not going anywhere.)
[ action ]
In this case, she did have to talk to Duzell about it, but she didn't want to. He didn't need to know if she died or not. She was alive now. Ishtar could be even more stubborn than Duzell, no matter how arrogant he was. ]
Yeah, yeah. I'm sure you already know everything then.
[ She shrugged. ]
Haha, right.
[ And off they go. Ishtar would certainly enjoy the company. ]
[ action ]
(I know you better than you think.) [Ishtar has a lot of human friends, but they don’t see all sides to her. When he was her cat, he spent way more time with her than they did.
He’ll still bug her about the death thing later.]
(You can handle the monsters on your own. Show me what you’ve got, princess.)
[ action ]
The idea of losing him made it painful. She was still unsure what to make of all of this. He was the real Duzell, not the clone Duzell who she learned many things about. He was a different person and she should treat him as Duzell from Pheliosta, not the one from Facility. She knew that all too well, but it still was painful on the inside. ]
Yeah, yeah, since you've spent so much time with me right? I could say the same for you too Duzie. I know you pretty well.
[ Because she always did things against his will and forced him to do things for her. She would avoid the subject for as long as she could help it. Eventually, she'll tell him about it. ]
Hah, this is rare, Duzie. You actually have faith in me?
