Game 001 [Voice] - Game On

[neverplaysfair]

[ The audio feed cuts in midway through Joshua mumbling to himself. ]

--ere and, oh, looks like that did it.

[ There’s a few seconds’ pause, then the sound of chuckling. ]

Of course, now that I have it working, I don’t have anything to talk about! What do people usually do with these sorts of things, anyway? Hmm... Dear diary: woke up in a strange world today. It doesn’t seem to be a certain someone’s fault. Would like to get back to my Shibuya soon. Hope I didn’t leave the tub running. [ He giggles at his own joke. ]

[On his rooooooof waiting.... Still. Joshua, here? Minamimoto isn't sure what to feel, but he figures he'll feel better once he lays down the smack]

[neverplaysfair]

[ La la la oooh look Josh spies a village now! ]

[yoctograms.livejournal.com]

[And Minamimoto spies a Joshua! It's time for him to whip out his psychokinetic bullets to fire them out of his palm at Joshua!

Surpraiz]

[neverplaysfair]

?! [ And it might only be by virtue of them being from the same world that Josh could even sense them coming at all. As it is, he barely has time to slow the bullets, getting them just under a speed that would actually damage him before they hit his body. He winces and looks around, trying to locate the source of the attack. ]

[And then Minamimoto, knowing that wouldn't make it, teleports in to Joshua's right, smirking and laughing like a maniac as to move to punch the guy with a psych-powered fist here-]

Zetta slow!

[neverplaysfair]

[ Too bad Joshua is ready now. He manages to sidestep the punch, and with a wave of his hand, sends a wave of pressure in Minamimoto's direction. With any luck, it'd put some distance between the two; Josh knew he had a better edge if he could keep them out of close-range combat. A smirk starts to form on his face to match Sho's. ]

What a welcoming surprise.

[yoctograms.livejournal.com]

[OH FUUH- Minamimoto is forced to skirt himself back there, and he punches a fist into his palm after he's got some sure footing there. He chuckles and - oh God he has waited for this-]

Welcome to Luceti, radain.

[neverplaysfair]

Thank you, Sho. Wonderful of you to report to your superior so soon after my arrival. Keep up the good work.

[ No, Joshua's body isn't starting to glow a little bit, what are you talking about? ]

[yoctograms.livejournal.com]

Superior? [AND THE RAGE BUILDS UP. OH THE RAGE. HE all but hisses but then he chuckles]

Zetta lame. I erased you, hectopascal.

[neverplaysfair]

Erased? [ There's half a moment's pause for the details to connect, then a long, soft chuckle. Oh, this could be quite fun. ]

Interesting. So if I came here because I've been erased, does that mean you've been erased, too?

[yoctograms.livejournal.com]

You're on infinite leave, I'm waiting for my desire solution.

[/CONFIDENCE that only one un-spoilered could have]

[neverplaysfair]

Hee hee. Of course. And how much longer will that take? [ FOREVER ahem. ]

[yoctograms.livejournal.com]

[HEY MAN. HE'S STILL ALIVE AT THE END OF WEEK3 that's more than most can say]

t = Right now!

[And now he's appearing behind Joshua again with another punch to the back there]

[neverplaysfair]

[ Joshua startles but doesn't react in time before he goes flying forward. A moment before he hits the ground, his body flashes white and he vanishes. When he reappears again a good distance away, energy is visibly swirling around him. He gives another wave, trying to bring down a column of energy on Minamimoto's head. ]

[yoctograms.livejournal.com]

[FUUUUUUUH that hurts. Minamimoto snarls and teleports out of the way there off to the left there, but he does get the impact on him before he can get out of there. It really hurts here in this quasi-RG land that is Luceti. Thus, he's going to chuckle there and hiss before firing a new round of psychokinetic bullets at Josh here]

[neverplaysfair]

[ Same trick won't work twice. The bullets slow, coming to a stop a couple feet from Joshua. Well, he only had to start getting serious before he could manage to pull that off. That's... annoying. That meant it probably wasn't just being away from Shibuya that was hurting his power, though that certainly didn't help matters.

His hand flexes for a moment, and he inwardly curses whoever had taken his gun, before sending another pressure burst in Sho's direction. ]

[yoctograms.livejournal.com]

[Well now he's getting more ready for this, so he's going to teleport before it impacts now. He manages to evade that blow and hiss as he gets behind Joshua and now aims to knock him off his high-horse there up in the air with a kick to the side!]

[neverplaysfair]

[ Goddammit TWEWY why did we never see Composer!Joshua fight :| Joshua teleports again away from the attack. If that's how Sho's gonna play it, Josh can adapt. He kicks up a couple stones from the road beneath him and sends them flying at Minamimoto. Less power into that, because he's focusing his energy elsewhere.

If Sho happens to try to get within a few feet of Joshua again, he might find himself... slowed. The closer to Joshua, the greater the effect. It takes more energy than Josh would like to sink into it, but given how Minamimoto's been fighting, it will probably be worth it. ]

[yoctograms.livejournal.com]

[Stones?! Sto- crap. He takes this hits, but they aren't more, fortunately-

Minamimoto does excel with the close up thing, of course. Unfortunately, he feels it. He originally goes int to get another punch... but hen realizes about five feet from Joshua that he's being slowed down. Thus, it's time for some DRAMA. He has been using psyches alone so far, but now it's time for him to pull out the-

You called it - the GUN. And point it at Joshua's head and without any sort of delay he's going to try firing off two or three rounds]

[neverplaysfair]

[ Well then. Lucky for Joshua this technique is area-of-effect rather than working on Minamimoto alone.

The bullets stop dead about a foot away from his head. He chuckles, and without any sort of warning, the projectiles reverse direction. They're not quite as fast as a gun could get, but the speed is reasonably comparable. ]

[yoctograms.livejournal.com]

Your zetta son of a digit!

[Because that bullet just flew back and embedded itself into his shoulder. Oh shit, he might be a Reaper but still. That really hurts. SNARL]

[neverplaysfair]

Me? But you were the one who shot first...

[ Aaand he's going to kick that power down a notch in case this drags out too much longer. Half the range is an eighth the energy, after all. ]

[yoctograms.livejournal.com]

Hnn. I blew it...

[RETREAT. He's going to teleport out of here, presumably onto the roof of a nearby building and from there to get out of there in general. shit this wasn't cool]
