Conquestum Paradisi

☢

What: Closing Arena Ceremonies, Part 2
Where: Aries Arena & Televised
Summary: 1/24/10AC
Warnings: This could get serious...but who knows.

Finally it was time for the mayor, Kazuki Sakahagi, to speak up. Not even an thirty minutes left to the celebrations, but seeing him go appeared to be lighting up a spark in the citizens. It wasn't too hard to see why; his enthusiastic grin and way of walking could easily melt anyone's worry away.

He walked to the center stage as cheering broke out, two men in black and Junko Tanako behind him.

Before the Anoli could have a chance to answer, La Sirene's Aqua attack hit his two-bit Persona full force. Now everything that wasn't on fire was sopping wet. Yay?

"I think I may need more practice." Elaine said, then unsheathed her cutlass (never leave home without it!) and faced the attacker. "But first I'll take care of you."

Annnnnd soaked again. He spits a bit of water out. She's really got to work on that aim.

The Anoli looks pained as his Persona flickers from the direct hit to its weakness, but then smirks as ANOTHER Anoli pops out, HIS Persona launching what looks like it will be an extremely painful slicing attack in Elaine's direction. Guybrush yelps, running towards the new assailant with an attack of his own Persona's. "Knock it off, you big jerks!" he yells. Truly intimidating.

His sword out, he prepares to watch Elaine's back as El Pollo Diablo readies a Herculean Strike. And yet, something seems to be resonating...

Elaine jumped back, but she wasn't quite fast enough to dodge, and the next thing she knew, she was on the ground and La Sirene was putting herself between the Anoli thugs and her. She wasn't worried. There were only two of these guys so they were only evenly matched. She wasn't going to say that out loud of course and jinx it, but still.

And then Guybrush was running straight at them. Oh great. She started to yell for him to desist, but a strange, almost electric feeling in the air stopped her. Something was happening. She really hoped it was something good.
a_pirate_meant_to_be: (Wha?)

s'all good :V

Guybrush, in typical Guybrushian fashion, nearly trips on the arrival. Thankfully, time seems to slow down, so it doesn't really make much of a diff... wait a minute.

"Honey? Do you feel that strange sort of excited anticipation of heightened powers too?" he asks, righting himself. He looks at her, feeling confused (which is standard) and... a feeling of deja vu. Like when El Pollo Diablo first woke up.

And then the voice echoes in his head.

I am thou... thou art I...




...and then there's not a beautiful sea maiden and a giant chicken anymore, but more of a... chickeny... whale sort of thing. A Moby Chick, if you will.

the mun should really be ashamed of herself for stealing that one.

"Well. That's new."

((ooc: thanks to Wighty for the graphic!))
plunderbunny: (Welp)

Elaine is not typically one to be rendered speechless, and years being spent in Guybrush's immediate vicinity had left her thinking that perhaps nothing could surprise her anymore. Well, it turns out she was mistaken.

"Wh...what..." She struggled to find words at first. "What is that?"
a_pirate_meant_to_be: (Eheh whoops)

[personal profile] a_pirate_meant_to_be 2013-02-05 06:01 am (UTC)(link)
"It looks like a giant... ducky... whaley sorta thing? Maybe?" He scratches his head. Then blinks. "Oh, right, we have that whole... bad guy... thing going on here." He coughs.

To be fair, their opponents seem just as confused as they are.
plunderbunny: (Welp)

The Anoli can wait, Elaine has to figure this out.

"Did you pick it out of the book? Because I certainly didn't pick it out of the book." She would have remembered seeing a giant chicken whale in there, she's sure of it. And yet she heard it speak to her, and there was no sign of her Persona, or Guybrush's chicken for that matter. "You there! Can you lend us a hand? Fin? Wing?"

The whale thing seems to pause for a moment... then hits one of the unsuspecting Anoli with an ability that echoes in the heads of both of them. And the name is oddly familiar.

YOU FIGHT LIKE A DAIRY FARMER.

Said Anoli staggers back, his Persona looking both weak and tired all of a sudden. Guybrush blinks. [Well you DO!] he thinks loudly, in a voice Elaine probably hears.

[A dairy farmer. Is that what we're going with, then?] Elaine thought to herself in reply. So now there was a giant poultry sea monster and she and Guybrush had spontaneously developed telepathy. May as well see this through to the end.

The second Anoli was currently fretting over whether or not to skedaddle. Unfortunately for him, he took too long to decide.

HOW APPROPRIATE, YOU FIGHT LIKE A COW.

The Anoli was knocked off his feet by a sudden force, and disappeared into a puff of smoke. When the smoke cleared, there was nothing there but a cow.

It mooed.

"...Well, I'm not really sure WHY we suddenly have a giant birdfish..." Guybrush whacks the weakned Anoli over the head with the butt of his sword, knocking him out. "...but you know what, at this point I'm really not complaining. Maybe we should ask those weird guys in the Velvet Room about it later."
plunderbunny: (Well there was this monkey you see...)

Once she had a moment to breathe, Elaine... still had no idea what just happened. But at least they were safe for now.

"Y-yes, and explanation would be very nice." She said, trying not to let the sudden pit in her stomach distract her. The last time she visited the room she had discovered something very unpleasant, but now was not the time to bring it up. "In the meantime, dear, perhaps we shouldn't stand in the middle of the free-for-all."

She gestured to the crowds of panicked spectators that were still rushing for the exits, which were now giving the two of them and their magic whale a wide berth.

"Oh. Uh. Right."

He leads the way to safer locales. Meanwhile, a former Anoli terrorist goes "Moo."
