Who: LiliS
Where: LiliS
When: Day 326, late morning (after hearts)

[Hello LiliS. Your door is locked and there is a strange man in your kitchen. He's making quite a lot of loud banging noises, and when you come out to see, many of the contents of the cabinets are strewn over the floor or the counters.

The man himself is barefoot in sweatpants and a crop top, which means his tattoo is very apparent.

He's currently paused his chaos in favor of inspecting the coffee maker and muttering to himself.]

Maybe you make liquor in this thing...

Comments

[stirtheblood]

Oh, we're goin' straight to insults on personal grooming, then?

[he pulls his shirt (further) up to sniff it]

I smell fine.

[heavenlyvisitor]

Physically, maybe.

[stirtheblood]

Yeah? And you think you've gotten a good sniff of me already in some other way?

[heavenlyvisitor]

It's your emotional smell.

[stirtheblood]

You must be a real quick judge of emotional character.

Or maybe you're just the kinda guy who expects other people to make way for him, and when they don't, decides they're worthless so you don't have to think about that too hard.

[heavenlyvisitor]

Ah? Isn't that description a little ultraviolet to be making in the same breath as "quick to judge"?

No, though. That's not my character at all. I don't expect anyone to make way for me, but do expect a memoryless newbie to understand their blank position and respect the safe place of our home.

I'm not a kind person, or a pushover -- So, I'll fight back when you've made your appearance noisy and rude.

[stirtheblood]

It was just a suggestion.

So, I'm s'posed to know the rules without remembering anything, but you're allowed to be just as rude if it's in retaliation? Is that a benefit of not being in a "blank position," whatever that means?

[heavenlyvisitor]

I assume you didn't lose your manners along with your memories. Making noise and being messy in the morning is rude. It isn't a rule that's been broken, it's common sense. If anyone gets angry with you for it, it's your fault.

The most of the people who live here are soft and kind. They don't deserve to be treated badly. ...We're on the same side, either way.

It's your home, as well.

[stirtheblood]

If people get angry with me, sure, that's on me. And I'll take whatever they want to give me for it. Maybe I'll even decide to be quieter next time. Don't see what reason I have to give respect to someone I don't even know who's never shown it to me, though.

But maybe I didn't have manners and common sense to begin with. I do get the feeling I could be a lot ruder than bangin' some pots around.

[heavenlyvisitor]

I'm going to spritz you with a spray bottle.

[stirtheblood]

Go on and try, if you want to.

[heavenlyvisitor]

If you're going to act like a bad dog, you're getting treated like one!

[ there is a spray bottle nearby because this place is full of plants! he picks it up! ]

[stirtheblood]

[he just raises his eyebrows and grins a little wider]

Were you looking for a good dog? Might be looking in the wrong place for that. I definitely don't come on command.

[heavenlyvisitor]

--Just be an acceptable dog at this point!!

[ points the spraybottle at him!! ]

[stirtheblood]

[stares him down]

I'm not interested in being a dog at all.

[heavenlyvisitor]

Dumpster cat gets sprayed, too.

[ spritz ]

[stirtheblood]

That's closer!

[Vicious dodges—it seems like he's very agile, and he does sort of a cartwheel with his hands on the counter—but the kitchen is not that big and he's not actually trying very hard, so the water hits him in his bare lower back when he lands.

He flinches away from the cold reflexively... and then just starts laughing.]

Not bad, kid!

[heavenlyvisitor]

Don't use "kid", I can't be that much younger than you are.

...And dodge under, idiot. You lost because you were trying too hard to be flashy!

[stirtheblood]

I dunno about that. You have that kid feeling to me.

And thanks for the tip. I'll keep it in mind for next time.

[he seems to be having fun now?]

[heavenlyvisitor]

I'm twenty one???

[stirtheblood]

My "phone" thing says I "appear 22," whatever that's supposed to imply. So it sounds like I've still got you beat.

[heavenlyvisitor]

Ehh ... "appears" 22 ... so, there's a chance that you're actually really just a baby after all ...

[stirtheblood]

Eh? What's the chance of that? If you're gonna say that, I could also be like a million, right?

[heavenlyvisitor]

Mm. I suppose that you could also be an ancient wizard.

[stirtheblood]

I feel like I could be an ancient wizard.
