001| [Video]

[It sounds like the rumble of boulders at first, low, monotonous, and threatening. After a moment, one might realize it’s a combination of a growl deep in one’s throat, as well as the sound of blunt fangs grinding together in obvious irritation. It had taken him quite a while to even figure out how to turn the thing on, but now everyone could have his piercing, narrowed white eyes trying to bore holes through their souls.The creak of his gauntlets tightening around the hilt of a wicked, impossibly helix-blade is a chilling sound indeed.]

Where?

[These were not his lands, and he could not sense Majora anywhere nearby. The Oni was exhausted, still bearing the wounds of his titanic struggle, AND the dried blood smeared across his face only lent itself to his already savage appearance. Someone had better start talking, and quickly, before he found the first pair of mortals to snatch up with his hands and choke them until they mewled every answer he wanted to hear. ]

[Saki makes a point of holding the communicator away from her a bit.]

Canberra.

[Her tongue is different from his, he's grasping this now. She seems to grow somehow, yet simultaneously shrink in size, revealing more of her body as she does so. Curious.]

You shrank. [The Oni rumbles quietly, simply not caring if she could not understand. It was worth noting, and so he was noting it. Out loud.]

[Saki presses her lips together, suppressing a peal of laughter.]

I'm magical.

[There's a faint grunt at that, one that sounds more acknowledging than surprised.]

You? [Was she the one who brought him to this place?]

Me!

[ -- hm.]

Saki. Sa-ki. Saki!

[An almost imperceptive tip of his head.]

Send me back.

[Oh, words.]

Sorry, can't. I just help with the meals.

[Can't is not a word that is appreciated. His lips peel back, exposing blunt fangs.]

Use your magics. You summoned, you will send me back. [An unmistakable threat.]

[An unmistakable threat... that is completely lost on Saki.

She doesn't laugh, and it's quite a feat of restraint.
]

Yeah, I'll get right on that, dude.

[Good. The Deity's stance relaxes, and he patiently watches the screen now, clearly waiting.]

[Staring contest?

After about a minute, Saki asks,
]

Are you hungry?

[His expression never changes, but he leans forward just a little. If she has offerings for him, they will be accepted. After Majora's brutality, he needs to recover his strength, and quickly.]

[Saki is perpetually hungry and is sympathetic enough to not troll for five minutes.]

Go south down the path, into the inn - it's the biggest building. I'll make you a sandwich.

[His head twists as glances down said road, and after a moment, he moves his feet. His progress is slow, each step sending irritating stabs of pain through his ribs, but it isn't terribly difficult to locate the biggest building in the quiet little village.]

[Saki's doing some lazy post-breakfast rush tidying when he comes in, and looks up.

And then looks up some more.
]

Hey, how's the weather up there? [Miraculously, she doesn't giggle at her own joke, but there is a quirk to her lips. Immediately - ] Never mind. Here.

[She hands over a sandwich and a glass of milk.]

action;

[identity profile] ivorymask.livejournal.com 2011-09-29 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[She is tiny, as are most mortals. It's something the Deity registers and dismisses in favor of focusing on whatever food item she's shoving his way. The glass... that's something that actually makes him pause for a moment.]

[Magic. He can't smell it, but it must be.]

[The sandwich is gone within three bites, and the Oni is left licking his lips in a satisfied fashion. Now all that's left is the strange white magic. His ears twitch slightly before he simply chooses to bite straight through half of it. The crunch is unpleasant, and he can feel the substance slicing at his tongue and cheeks, but the Deity stubbornly continues to chew. Whatever was inside has started dribbling all over his fist, and after a moment, he does pause to experimentally lick at it. Much tastier than the outside.]

[And immediately Saki is fetching up a napkin - ]

That's glass! You don't eat that. Are you bleeding?

action;

[identity profile] ivorymask.livejournal.com 2011-09-29 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[Glass. Another foreign word. His jaw tightened briefly, his primal instinct encouraging him to swallow the stuff so that she couldn't have it instead, but after a moment, the Deity decided it hadn't been that fulfilling anyway.]

[He spits the somewhat bloodied lumps on the floor, running his red, red tongue over the inside of his mouth. Tiny cuts--they're already beginning to heal, unlike the larger wounds he sustained before.]

[Now back to staring at Saki, still holding the dripping vial. What's he supposed to do with it?]

Here, [Saki holds the napkin for now, stepping beside him. She has to force herself not to abrupt in her gestures, very gently wrapping her hand around the glass and raising it - not extricating it from his grip - to her lips to demonstrate.]

You drink what's inside it, [she adds, after lowering the glass again.]

action;

[identity profile] ivorymask.livejournal.com 2011-09-29 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[She's already figuring him out. As soon as her hand touches his and the glass, well, his fingers tighten possessively. She doesn't try to wrench it away, however, and though the Oni is watching her with narrowed, suspicious eyes, nothing untrustworthy occurs.]

Mm. [He'll take the initiative to lift the glass this time, looking somehow awkward with it pressed against his lips before he takes a drink. There's a brief flicker of surprise across his stoic features, and the Deity simply settles for peering down at the object with open curiosity.]
othersided: (surprises // well that's new)

action;

[personal profile] othersided 2011-09-29 08:24 pm (UTC)(link)
You drink what's inside it. You don't eat the glass.

[Saki trades the napkin for the closest rag and kneels, starting to pick up the broken bits of glass now sprayed on the floor. She stands up again when done, carefully wrapping the rag's edges around the glass fragments.]

It's good, right?

action;

[identity profile] ivorymask.livejournal.com 2011-09-29 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[He watches her movements closely, watching her gather the fragments. They must be valuable. He's never seen such a substance before.]

Yes. [The sandwich had been, too.]
othersided: (girl // a maybe)

action;

[personal profile] othersided 2011-09-29 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[So valuable that she just... dumps them into the closest trash bin. :D]

Do you want some more? You're like, a giant... You don't eat people, do you? Sandwiches are much higher in protein.

action;

[identity profile] ivorymask.livejournal.com 2011-09-29 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[Ah. A containment device. There were probably more rare fragments.]

[More?]


Yes. [There's no question of that, but the mention of people makes his head tilt.] No. Unless they deserve it.
