[Action for roommates (2-19)
Maka died last week. She'll wake up in her bed, but before then, in the few seconds before she wakes up, there's a flash of light and she transforms, growing blades from every inch of her body, like a flower made of deadly metal with her as the center. As quickly as they appear, they vanish again.

Then comes waking up, and sleep paralysis. For ten minutes, she is trapped motionless in her bed, unable to move any part of her body. She panics, trying to fight it, but there's nothing she can do. It passes, eventually, and she sits up with a strangled screaming sob, shaking, arms wrapped around her torso.

[Eventually, she makes her way to the terminals, and figures out how to post.]

Anybody here know how to fight hand-to-hand? A spar would be a good way to work off some energy after last week.

Haven't we all...?

[There's a few things Allen would rather not have done in hindsight. Such as not cheating people out of more of their money when he had the chance.]

That's also quite an analogy you've used there. I'm sure it couldn't have been "that" bad, whatever it is you've done.

[Video]

[the_word_is]

... What analogy?

[Video]

[whiteblackknight]

Well, you said "Death knows". The normal version is a little different. I mean, it's not like Death actually has a consciousness or anything.

[Video]

[the_word_is]

Of course he does. And that is the normal version, unless you're one of those really religious "thou shalt not take the name of Lord Death thy god in vain" types.

[Tim hops off of Allen and begins to fly around him in circles as his eyes have since widened.]


R-Really!? W-Well, I've always been the humbler type...


So Death is real from where it is you come from, I guess?

[video]

[the_word_is]

Well, I guess "death" is real everywhere, but yeah, Lord Death is in charge of our world.

[video]

[whiteblackknight]

Oh, really? Is he...uh, she?....It doing a good job?

[It's a silly question, but Mr. Walker assumes nothing.]

[video]

[the_word_is]

He's doing pretty good, I guess. It's not like I've ever seen a world where he isn't...

[video]

[whiteblackknight]

Minus this one. Maybe.

[Allen looks questionable.]

So anyway, what's this scythe of yours like?

Re: [video]

[the_word_is]

And this world sucks.

[Yeah, let's change the subject.]

He's lazy slob who never does his homework and drools all over the couch.

[video]

[whiteblackknight]

[And strike two!]

Uh....come again? I thought a scythe was some kind of bladed weapon. I can hardly call this thing that is my arm "Innocence"...

[video]

[the_word_is]

Oh, well, yeah, he is. But he's a pretty... typical scythe. I mean, scythes aren't a really complex weapon.

[video]

[whiteblackknight]

[He smiles.]

Guess so!

I just have an arm for a weapon. It's really not that exciting.

[video]

[the_word_is]

Just your arm?

[video]

[whiteblackknight]

Yeah. Just my arm. [He waves it nonchalantly in front of himself--what little skin that can be seen between his pure, white glove and long sleeve is pitch black, contrasting with the rest of his otherwise pale complexion.]

You have your scythe with you?

[video]

[the_word_is]

Oh, that's really cool! Is that a tattoo?

[Oh, subject change.]

No, he's not here. But they don't really bring two people from the same place here at a time, do they.

[video]

[whiteblackknight]

[Mr. Walker scratches the area beneath his eye--the rather lively, red scar, actually.]

Not actually....

I hear you. Tim's pretty much the only one I remember from back home. Not that it's not easy to make new friends here or anything.

[video]

[the_word_is]

Yeah. There's no one here from where I am.
