Game 014 [Action] - Give a Little, Get a Lot

[neverplaysfair]

[ Bundled up, slowly making his way through the snow, a bundle of wood that looks a bit too big for him balancing slightly precariously on his shoulder, is Joshua. He's making his way towards Kat's Kradle, and hey, maybe he looks like he needs help. Or maybe you're in Kat's Kradle when he arrives there. Poke him? ]

Whatever. [Not that he's very much help, really. He and Joshua are kind of a similar build; physical labor doesn't look good on either of them.]

[neverplaysfair]

[ It's still two people. And before too long, they reach Kat's Kradle. Lo and behold, there's a hole in the ceiling off in the far corner. ]

Now it just needs to go upstairs.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

You're pushing it. [Seriously, what is that hole. He might be staring a little.]

[neverplaysfair]

Well, it does. [ Carefully navigating the wood up the stairs... ]

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

This story had better be good. [Following despite his better instincts...]

[neverplaysfair]

[ And the first room off the hallway is a studio with easils and art strewn about, one large mural with a lot of interesting wings drawn in gray around a large strange white reaper wing, and a bed tucked against one wall. This is where Josh carries the wood, setting it on top of a small pile already there. ]

He surprised me.

[Hisoka's trying to look unimpressed by the imposing mural, but the size alone makes it difficult to ignore.] "He"?

[neverplaysfair]

My housemate. [ Not grinning about the mural, of course not. ]

Who would be masochistic enough to live with you?

[neverplaysfair]

Mr. H.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

Hm. Figures. He's the one you're trying to paint as a child molester, isn't he?

[neverplaysfair]

It only works because people make assumptions.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

Assumptions you're only too happy to encourage.

[neverplaysfair]

It wouldn't be amusing otherwise.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

There's nothing amusing about toying with people.

[neverplaysfair]

I beg to differ.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

Because you have no respect for anyone else.

[neverplaysfair]

Not quite true. I have different values than most.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

Your values are sociopathic.

[neverplaysfair]

That might be what it looks like from the outside.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

And I'm sure you think you're perfectly normal.

[neverplaysfair]

I know I'm not normal.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

[He shakes his head] Just. Try not to hurt that Hanekoma guy, okay? He probably doesn't deserve it.

[neverplaysfair]

I don't hurt anyone without a reason.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

It would be better if you'd learn how to stop hurting people altogether.
