Open: A girl's got her needs

Date & Time: 7th Sept, nighttime.
Location: General housing building and Unit 1006.
Characters: Seras Victoria + open
Summary: Seras is a vampire, vampires sleep in coffins. Seras tries to sneak a coffin in through the housing to her room; awkward questions and hilarity ensues. Your character is welcome to a) catch her in the halls or b) for roommates when she actually does manage to make it to 1006 :)
Warnings: None for now, will be edited if they come up.

[She's made it a week sleeping in a bed, or as later nights would attest, under it on the hard floor. It's been thirty years since Seras last slept in a bed, her Master had been quite insistent she use a coffin from the moment she first awoke as a vampire. In Siren's Port she'd had one, graciously given to her by Doctor Van Helsing, a rather beautiful and expensive creation - the man had been generous and kind to her indeed.

The one she's managed to procure now is not quite so nice, so expensive, but it is a coffin, comfortably lined and good enough to keep out all possible daylight when she sleeps. She probably could continue sleeping in a bed but it's just... not right anymore. She's used to coffins now, she likes them even.

So here she is, ready to try and get the thing up to her room with preferably no encounters with the other residents if she can manage it. She's waited until nightime and she's tried wrapping it up in a sheet but of course, when has she ever been that lucky?]

[It may obviously be a coffin in good lighting and from a respectable distance, but Naoya's sleep schedule has been fucked up since before he got here and he's pretty sure time travel has to give you jetlag.

At least, that's the excuse he'd pull for skulking around in the stairs at obscene o'clock -- he was actually on his way to the roof to get some air and hopefully not get rained on for once.

Considering the state of his weapon, though, watching the small woman with the giant package evokes more than a few sympathy pangs.]

Oh, hey, d'you need any help with that? Wouldn't want it falling back down the stairs.

[ Okay, so maybe he's getting a late start. But dammit, he'd finally unlocked that final level on Arcane Terrors: XVIII, and like hell was he leaving the couch until he'd explored it. So it's nighttime by the time he starts out, and naturally, his timing is wonderful enough to catch sight of the very strange spectacle making its way down the hall toward him.

It doesn't take him long to recognize a coffin, even under the sheet, and it's even less time to pick out Seras as the bearer. He slows about ten feet off, hands pocketed and making a face.

What the fuck? Oh, Christ, not you too, that is so fucking creepy.

[Sango is a light sleeper. The sound of a coffin being dragged through the door to the apartment is enough to have her on her feet and throwing open the door to her room, demon cat in tow--]

--Seras? What...?

[That makes him dart forward and reach out to help steady things because the startling looks like it might have unbalanced her cargo. He hasn't sent someone falling down stairs yet and would like not to start just by trying to be helpful.

(Story of his life, huh?)]

Hey, it's no trouble. Just be careful! [He pats at the -- box? Does so curiously, being too close up now to see the whole shape of it.] ... Bookcase? Dunno if it's gonna fit through the doors...

... Yeah, you did, huh? Do you have superstrength or something?

[Along with see-in-the-dark powers, possibly, considering how dim it is in the staircase. Seriously, though, they're on the 9th floor...]

I...

[She's too surprised to have remembered her own formalities, really.]

I'm not sure what it looks like.

( Karina's been having trouble sleeping, and thus has taken to wandering the hallways of the housing building until she tires herself out, or gets bored. It's usually the latter.

She's walking down the stairs from the ninth floor when she comes across the girl lugging the... she's not actually sure what that is. But she's curious enough to find out.

Karina cocks her head to one side and asks: )


Um, what are you doing?
anotheryosuke: (LET ME TURN THE TABLES.)

[personal profile] anotheryosuke 2013-09-09 05:25 am (UTC)(link)
Ahh, maybe I should've asked for superstrength instead...

[He's been leaning against the bookcase talking (gently!), but for some reason it's really very inconvenient. Are bookcases supposed to slope that way?]

By the way, is this one of those modern-art bookcases?

[He'll try and sneak a quick peek under the covering...]
anotheryosuke: (Nobody's turned on at all.)

[personal profile] anotheryosuke 2013-09-09 11:44 am (UTC)(link)
Wait, so if you already had superpowers or an awesome weapon or whatever, do they just give you another one? How's that fair?

[He doesn't say it resentfully, exactly, but he does sound a little exasperated. Sure, he's landed in a sci-fi movie and all, but more and more he's starting to feel like one of the mooks.

Being a mook is never a good thing.

He does obligingly drop the drapery back on the furniture, though, blinking at her.]

I'm not one to judge, but what's up with your bookcase? That's some pretty gloomy modernism.

[He would be weirded out, except Exsilium might have broken his weird-o-meter at this point.]

It takes all kinds, I guess... Hmmm, but couldn't they give you anything? There really wasn't anything else you wanted at all?

[He can't help asking, because he can't really fathom the idea of being offered superpowers or superweapons and turning it down. Then again, if you had too many superthings going on maybe you got confused or forgot your skillset or something.

She definitely looks a little like a video game character...]
onhold: (shout ▶ what did we come here for?)

( That's definitely not enough to sate her curiosity on this boring night, and she takes a step towards the other girl and her furniture. )

Strange time of night to be moving in. What is it?

[You're clearly arrested by his stunning wit and sparkling personalit-- Nah, he's just blocking the stairs; not on purpose, but still. Naoya makes a vague, slightly embarrassed gesture.]

Well, uh, yeah. It's not like I had superpowers or anything before I got here. Nothing supernatural about me at all.

[A beat.]

So I guess it's a good thing they give us something, right? I'm still on a trial run, though, kinda.
