TAKSHAKA

[The room you step into looks like it could be a miniature ballroom, complete with stained glass windows and vast, ornate mirrors.

Your team's column is set into one wall, easily accessible but as impregnable as ever. One of the mirrors may prove almost as interesting, if you can tear your eyes away from your trapped teammate. Through it, you are somehow able to see every other team's column and what is inside, though nothing beyond that.

The floor beneath your feet polished, patterned wood, inlaid with the pattern of a grand sundial in your team's colors. In the center of the pattern stands a pedestal, upon which sits a collection of colorful glass ornaments. It looks like there's room for other items, but there's nothing else to be found just yet . . . ]

There's, ugh--

[ He wants to explain his thought processes in sophisticated detail, that there's no time to devise a plan to fight this Echo, that the Echoes have proven to be nigh-omnipotent in their own realms, but all that comes out is ]

I, I am my team's Servant.

You're our friend!

[ her hands are steadily getting covered with blood as she tries to tourniquet the wound, furiously blinking back as many tears as she can so she can see what she's doing. ]

[ she opens her mouth to argue, to insist that there's no way she's going to burn the stump like that but then...

she looks at how much blood there is and bites her lip before picking it up in shaking hands and looking for the way to turn it on. ]


J-Just the wrist...?

[ she can do this. she can do this so he won't bleed to death. ]

[personal profile] barrette 2013-10-02 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
[ she turns it on, flinching as the flame bursts out, then grits her teeth until her jaw hurts. ]

O-Okay.

[ Sparrow swipes the burning end of the blowtorch down over his bleeding wrist, just once. ]

[ Gritting his own teeth, hard. ]

I-is that enough? It's not bleeding as much...
barrette: (♡ metal sound。)

[personal profile] barrette 2013-10-02 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
I think so? Here, I'll co-cover it.

[ she switches the blowtorch off and drops it to the floor before trying to clumsily tie her cape over the stump. ]

Ow!

[ AS IF HE CAN EVEN FEEL THAT PAIN RIGHT NOW. It's his pride that's wounded. Why isn't she grateful that he spared her that potential pain?! ]

What...what was that for?
barrette: (♡ fake tears。)

[personal profile] barrette 2013-10-02 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
Don't do that to us again-!

[ she flings her arms around him with a sob. ]

W-We don't want you to get hurt!

Don't cry!

[ His head's kind of swimming so he can't really think too much about what she actually said. Only the fact that she's crying and hugging him. ]
barrette: (♡ defend order。)

[personal profile] barrette 2013-10-02 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
[ she can't stop crying yet, not when she can still feel Swan's blood on her hands and hear everyone else's reactions.

shame on you, Swan!! ]
