CIRRUS NETWORK

[livestage]

You find yourselves in a surprisingly sterile room. It's entirely white, almost blindingly so. There are a few beanbag chairs to sit on, though perhaps not enough for your entire family. On one of the walls, there's a laminated poster of a wheel. At the center of the room is a table with a glass case on top. If you lift the case, you'll find a single red button. Behind a glass panel on the wall is a monitor that is currently off.

Curiously, it does not seem as though you can actually destroy anything in this room (save for a simple note by the button), regardless of how much you may try. The glass will never shatter. The poster cannot be torn into pieces. Furthermore, your blessings and powers are off and none of your personal belongings are actually on your person.

A simple note lays by the button on the table, a reminder of your directive: Will you push the button?

If you won't give up the attempt then you aren't that sorry.

Re: DISCUSSION

[endsjustified]

No, I'm quite sorry. I don't like seeing Family hurt. I don't like seeing you hurt. I care about you very much.

[laughs like he very much does not believe him]

You don't have to make things up.

Re: DISCUSSION

[endsjustified]

If you want me to say it in front of Booker when he has his Blessing working to verify, I will.

Re: DISCUSSION

[mykidisthebest]

There's no need. You already told me how you feel. I have no problem keeping your words in mind.

Re: DISCUSSION

[endsjustified]

What?

Re: DISCUSSION

[mykidisthebest]

You said how you felt at the festival. It wasn't that long ago.

Re: DISCUSSION

[endsjustified]

I did not tell you that I did not care about you at the festival.

Re: DISCUSSION

[mykidisthebest]

[turns to look at him, a little incredulous]

You did.

Re: DISCUSSION

[endsjustified]

I definitely did not. I told you we couldn't keep deliberately picking at each other's sore spots, going for what hurts, if we wanted to do . . . literally anything . . . with continuing to interact.

[TACKLES HIM TOO???]

Re: DISCUSSION

[HOW ABOUT WE JUST WRESTLE INSTEAD OF USING WORDS]

Re: DISCUSSION

[endsjustified]

[ok tries to bash his head on the floor and knock him out immediately and efficiently tho

KEYWORD TRIES but he's being pretty ruthless]

Re: DISCUSSION

[mykidisthebest]

[it does not knock him out but it DOES stun him enough that he's fully out of it for a few long seconds, head swimming]

Re: DISCUSSION

[endsjustified]

[that's an opening to headlock him just like Booker]

Re: DISCUSSION

[mykidisthebest]

[it's a little harder to get in air but he is scrambling the whole time, trying to tug at his hair or horns or clothes or scratch at him enough for Vincent to decide it's not worth the trouble and let go]

Re: DISCUSSION

[endsjustified]

[unfortunately Vincent is just going to lean into tightening his grip and shifting his greater weight so Eugene can't get him off with leverage, not even attempting to dodge damage]

Re: DISCUSSION

[mykidisthebest]

[well he can't escape then but it's not going to stop him from struggling. he DOES at one point try to cover Vincent's nose and mouth to try and make HIM pass out, though]

Re: DISCUSSION

[endsjustified]

[whips his head and bites his hand. cronch]

Re: DISCUSSION

[mykidisthebest]

[BITES HIS ARM]

Re: DISCUSSION

[endsjustified]

[makes a muffled snarling gagging noise of pain and

bites down harder]

[perfectpower]

FUCK YES!

[He! Loves fighting!!! So much so that he picks up a beanbag chair to throw at Booker.

But it goes wide and heads right for Eugene instead.]
