THEY TRYIN' TO CATCH ME RIDIN' DIRTY

[rollin]

TEST DRIVE MEME



So how does it work?

STEP 1 ► Post a comment with a character that's not in HH as if they're already in the setting; alternative version, post character who is in HH. Scenarios if you need 'em!
STEP 2 ► Tag around and get a feel for your characters, whether you're just voice testing or planning to actually app them in!
STEP 3 ► Post this all over your plurk and get people to join in on this jolly good fun. Don't forget: it's mandatory.

Copypasted, as usual.

Comments

[ If he eats more, he'll grow taller. If he grows taller, he won't look twelve! The line of logic seemed more obvious in his head. Not that he's admitting he's short or anything! Fushimi sees that opening and rips into it; Yata desperately attempts to seal it shut. ]

Fuck off! I don't wanna hear that from you! It's true that I didn't start drinking milk until recently... But all those times you ate the meat from my bento took ten centimeters off my height, you bastard! [ He aggressively leans forward, gritting his teeth. HEIGHT THIEF. ]

[miscolor]

[ Not reciprocating the threat (even though he could), he merely looks forward towards the play. ]

Eleven centimeters. [ There's much emphasis in his still voice because, y'know, ten isn't going to change the fact he would be taller. He feels like it has been a while since he had Yata's full attention... Yet it isn't the same, but this is good enough.

Yeah, he's not going to deny he ate most of your meat. ] It can't be helped.

[ He shrugs. You're going to be forever short, Yata. Twenty and you still look like a middle schooler. ]

[rollin]

[ His eye twitches at the reminder. Oh, Fushimi. Now you're just asking for it. Yata shakes his fist at him! ]

Aaaah! You're pissin' me off! That's it, we're taking this outsi—

[ SHH! The number of people shushing him seems to have increased... Yata sinks into his chair and tugs at his beanie. ]

[miscolor]

[ WOW. At first he found the shushing audience amusing, but now they're are becoming a nuisance. Just when Yata is about to flip all the tables he's easily placated... Inconvenient.

Still!! Mission accomplished. ]

I thought you would never ask. [ Which is a lie because he knew it was going to happen. He has been waiting for this!! ] After you.

[ Except right when he says that, suddenly the spotlight aims at their seats. ]

[rollin]

[ It's unfortunate that he stands up half a second before the spotlight lands on them. ]

Shit! [ There might be someone saying something over the PA? His face flushes and some people jeer, but at this point, it's all gibberish to him, so... fuck it. This is what Fushimi wants, and this is what Fushimi gets. That, and the audience is just a bunch of mindless NPCs anyway!!

If Fushimi's been counting, Yata growls, then snickers, and a red aura surrounds him on cue. ]

Nah, you know me. Ladies first!

[ He attempts to grab Fushimi by the shirt and throw him all the way to the exit. ]

1/2

[miscolor]

[ You've gotten soft(er)... Taking this long to ignore mindless NPCs!! Fushimi only gives him a sinister smile before taking a stand himself. That red aura that everyone finds so mesmerizing, the same red that Yata practically idolizes--Okay, so he doesn't have his saber! Not big deal, he can easily handle Yata hand-to-hand! ]

Some women would find that offensive, but a virgin like you wouldn't understand.

[ It's only pure instinct that he tries to block Yata's hand from grabbing him. Wait a minute... ]

[miscolor]

[ This isn't Shizume city and he's pretty sure Yata shouldn't come with his aura only under assumption. If he doesn't have his own, why do you??? Wow. Much unfair.

Super shame.

Just brushing against Yata's hand leaves an intense burning sensation. Quickly retracting his hand, he tries his best to evade his hold, but alas... He reacted too slow (one second lag time is too much) from the mere surprise by how unbalanced this is. So there you go, Yata!! You have successfully flung Fushimi across the room and he's just on the floor.

Dying. Kind of. At least on the inside. ]

[rollin]

[ Let's be real, the virgin comment is what gets Yata to throw Fushimi at full force. But... Huh. It's weird how Fushimi doesn't use his own aura.

And that's when it hits him.

Yata runs out of the spotlight, out the aisle and toward Fushimi. After harming a depowered resident of Holly Heights with his aura that's meant to protect, he feels like the worst kind of person right now. He crouches near Fushimi to check if he's alright. ]

Hey, are you okay?

[ Fushimi's a friend first, a traitor second. ]

[miscolor]

[ Tch... Someone is looking down on him again. How many times is this going to happen? But it's Yata--there are so many mixed feelings as he tries to get up on his own. Biting back everything he probably wants to say from how dumb Yata is to shut up. Yet at the same time, Yata is worrying about him.

Ugh. How sickening. ]

I'm fine. [ He says with much vehement and will be trying to get up on his own. He doesn't need you anymore!! He doesn't need anyone...! All the lies he tells himself. ]

[rollin]

[ Don't be tsun for friendship. Yata is, of course, oblivious to everything going on inside Fushimi's head. He just wants to know if he's hurt. If there's a hospital bill he needs to pay, he'll take care of it.

...but he'll worry about money later. Security's closing in on them. ]

How fast can you run?

[miscolor]

[ Yata will never understand... He rolls his shoulders a bit once he gets up to check for any injuries. The dumbo did throw him pretty harshly--so far there are only sores. Good enough. Despite the urgency, Fushimi casually walks over to pick up his glasses that went flying during the incident. ]

You should already know. [ Cleaning the lenses, he puts them back on and adjusts. Security's getting closer, so he only gives Yata The Look and runs off ahead. ]

[rollin]

[ WOW DON'T LEAVE HIM BEHIND no, he knows that look. He pushes the guards away once the approach and follows Fushimi out the door. ]

Hey, I ain't done with you yet!

[ So he says, but he doesn't plan on actually fighting him. ]

[miscolor]

[ He stops in his tracks, but chooses not to look behind him. An exasperated sigh escapes him... ]

What is it, Misaki? [ Since they can't fight, he doesn't see why Yata's calling out to him. In addition to that, he doesn't know what to do. ]

[rollin]

[ Yata pauses to catch his breath and for a moment, it's as if he doesn't know what to say. He only has so much time. ]

You can get 'em back from the landlord. [ His aura. Auras. Whatever, he can take his pick, but it would be nice if... ]

You wanna go back too, right?

[miscolor]

[ He doesn't comment on the first part, but it's good to know! Unfortunately, he doesn't thank Yata, but I'm sure he knows Fushimi well enough that it is somewhat appreciated and resourceful.

God, the question pings so many things he's not sure which context is the right one. ]

I know that you're not the most eloquent speaker, but you need to be specific.

[rollin]

[ His reply annoys him, but he's not going to be difficult like Fushimi. ]

Where else? To Shizume! [ He'd call him a dumbass, but, um. ] We don't belong here.

[miscolor]

[ YO. THAT QUESTION IS THE DUMBEST THING YOU COULD ASK HIM... It sparks a light in Fushimi's eyes (well, more like an intense leer). There's just silence as he thinks about it. Won't most people naturally want to go home? Most people.

He doesn't particularly dislike his place in Shizume, but at the same time he can't say that he's attached. He can't naturally say that it's "home" or anything. Still, after thinking about it, he has concluded one thing. ]

Lesser of the two evils. [ Figure of speech. He knows the nature of Holly Heights only with the small amount of time he had before the play that... Even if Yata is here!! There's a chance he'll leave. Even if this place promises opportunities they might not have in Shizume-- ] No one does.

[ Idiot. ] Why are you even asking?

[rollin]

[ See, that's what he's talking about. He knows Fushimi doesn't care about where he is either way. If it was anyone else, they'd say, "Let's go back together!" That's why he has to ask. That's why he worries! ...He wants to go back to Shizume with him, too. ]

Just checking. [ It looks like he's satisfied enough with his answer. ] I'm going ahead.

[ Like he needs to say anything. He's behind Fushimi, though, so he... walks ahead! ]

[miscolor]

[ Fushimi is so dumbstruck by how anticlimactic that is. Sure, he wasn't expecting much, but wow. HE STOPPED

TO LISTEN TO YOU

AND YOU DO THIS

WHAT A WASTE OF TIME ]

How lame. [ He's slightly seething--it's obvious he wants Yata to know! ]

[rollin]

[ what

did you just

oh my god

It's his turn to stop in his tracks. ]

I was gonna say more but someone tired me out! [ Well, no, he's obviously not tired. ] But fine. You wanna hear more?

[ He looks down for a second. ]

The landlord's strong. We can't take him down alone.

[miscolor]

[ So dumb... so easy to file up. He doesn't say anything because Yata doesn't give him enough time to even reply "no", but there you go. Squinting at Yata, he understands how difficult that probably is to admit. Mister Yap Yap I can take on anything!! he's guessing this landlord guy is a bigger deal than he expected. ]

"We"? [ We =/= alone. He's also fairly curious as to whom he's referring to. ]

[rollin]

You, me and HOMRA! [ Like Yata would be talking about anyone else. ] Look, not even...

Not even Mikoto can win against the landlord, but he can't say it. ]

[miscolor]

Not even your precious Mikoto-san. [ He gets it. Don't worry, Yata. Your silence means everything. Of course, Fushimi knows that Yata is going to say HOMRA, but being included...

He's included despite everything. It's a start. Looking off to the side, he runs his fingers through his own hair. Troublesome. ]

This landlord sounds like a pain. [ Not going to lie, Mikoto is terrifying. ]

[rollin]

Tch! [ No need to shoehorn "precious" in there! It's patronizing. It pisses him off. But Fushimi's right. ] Everything's a pain to you... [ It always was. God, he never changes. ]

[miscolor]

[ No changes!! He has been stuck where Yata left him and either never budged or regressed. There's so much to say, but all Fushimi does is stay quiet. ]

Anything else you want to tell me, Misaki? [ He's being less insufferable right now!! Only because he's truly tired out from being flung across the auditorium. ]
