Game 007 [Action] - I Solemnly Swear I am Up To... Wait, Wrong Fandom

[neverplaysfair]

[ If you're out at all in the village today, you're likely to notice Joshua. What's he doing? Well, walking. Just walking, in seemingly random straight lines: cutting across paths, making his way around buildings, jumping across streams, weaving through the trees... And since it's snowing heavily, he's been leaving tracks. Of course, they disappear before too long, but still. For just walking all over the place, he seems pretty involved in what he's doing. Feel free to come across him, well, anywhere within the village. ]

I'd prefer to make an educated guess.

[neverplaysfair]

You're welcome to.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

Educate me and I will.

[neverplaysfair]

I've given you plenty.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

Fine. It sounds to me that you've heard of some mythical power source somewhere in the village, but the story was too vague for you to have anything more specific than that. So instead of waiting for more concrete details to unearth themselves, you decided to search everywhere. You're not using your eyes to search because you're trying to feel it.

[neverplaysfair]

A very good guess. It might even be somewhat right.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

That's almost a compliment, coming from you.

[neverplaysfair]

I give them on occasion. Every so often they might even be deserved.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

Should I be flattered?

[neverplaysfair]

Entirely up to you. If I told people how to react, it would take half the fun out of it.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

[He's trying not to dignify that with a reply, but] Are you getting close to what you're searching for?

[neverplaysfair]

I've narrowed down options. How much closer I've gotten remains to be seen.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

You don't need more power than what you have now.

[neverplaysfair]

... [ He's just going to softly chuckle. ]

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

[Which in turn only irritates him more.] This place didn't cap enough of your abilities, as far as I'm concerned.

[neverplaysfair]

Angry it didn't place heavier restrictions on yours?

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

[And now he's trying to kill you with his glare again.] My powers are fine the way they are.

[neverplaysfair]

Apparently not entirely.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

That was a fluke.

[neverplaysfair]

But it still happened.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

I suppose you've never struggled with yours.

[neverplaysfair]

Never since I first got used to it. [ HE LIES. Well, kind of. ]

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

So it's not natural for you.

[neverplaysfair]

What defines natural? What does it matter? This power is mine.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

And because you think of it that way, you abuse it.
