Invasion of the plants and now an abundance of loud music? This month certainly has been more confusing to say the least. I suppose devastating can well be added to that list. [sighs to Jennifer's spring cleaning and the destruction of precious books in the library.]
In either case, I'd like to hear what others think of these signs. The appearance of the sand and change in landscape. Has something like this happened before?
[Private to Tyr:]
Well, I think it's been a while now. Let me know your answer.
[ooc; Again, sorry that it's going to be mostly backtagged due to internet probs /sobs but this was something that needed to be posted!]

Date: 2011-04-08 01:41 am (UTC)[ While he waited for the kettle to boil, Tyr absently played with the glove, tugging on the fingers and then pulling it back on. How would he go about this, he wondered. He was sure it shouldn't be hard. Klarth was his friend, probably the only one not from his world he felt really comfortable with; it was hard not to be casual with a guy who teased you about your love life and then shared his own position. It wasn't that, though. The more he thought of it, he was sure Klarth was probably one of the only people who he should tell about this who would neither brush off his concerns like Katara did nor have a personal investment like Yuri or Flynn might.
He was never really close to the scientists in his army years ago, and now he felt like Klarth and Rita were the only two who he trusted and thought should know. Besides Katara, of course, whose faith was becoming more of a burden. He honestly couldn't blame anyone but himself for any new crosses he'd have to bear, though. With any luck, though, he wouldn't need to. Klarth and Rita could help him, he reminded himself.
The knock on the door broke Tyr from his thoughts immediately. Walking briskly over to the door, he opened it wide for Klarth to enter. ]
Come on in. The kitchen is down the hall.
Action;
Date: 2011-04-12 05:21 am (UTC)[Klarth gave a slight nod to greet as he offered a smile.]
Hey. All right.
[He carefully studied Tyr's state giving him an occasional glance as he followed slightly to the side and behind him. He seemed fine at the moment, but only time would tell depending on what they end up discussing. He decided to break the silence with small talk.]
Ah, I hope I haven't interrupted anything. How are things on your end?
Action;
Date: 2011-04-13 04:34 am (UTC)[ Tyr gave a small smirk to almost match Klarth's as he shook his head. ] As normal as they can be... Quiet. It makes me wonder if something's going to happen soon...
How about you?
Action;
Date: 2011-04-16 04:44 pm (UTC)[He could sympathized with that thought.] Truly.
Same here. Besides the usual occurrences at home, fortunately, nothing beyond that. I must admit, having others around does give a sense of comfort despite just how loud it can become sometimes.
Action;
Date: 2011-04-16 06:13 pm (UTC)Were you living on your own until recently?
[ And now the kitchen. There's a pot of tea and two plain, white cups sitting on the table waiting for them. Oh and a sugar dish, too. As always. ]
Action;
Date: 2011-04-19 04:42 am (UTC)Hm? Ah, that's right. It seems I've been able to avoid the ticking until it's finally caught on to me. [Not that Tyr needs to know that it's because he'd fall asleep at the library sometimes and such where there are people. Or too exhausted to notice.]
The reason may not seem kosher, however, it's a fact that I've offered my place to others for this purpose. And I do appreciate her assistance around the house, especially with cooking. [Again, not that he's going to mention how he tends to forget to eat.
Klarth gratefully took one of the seats and began to make himself comfortable.]
Just how many live here?
Action;
Date: 2011-04-19 11:43 pm (UTC)Besides me, there's... [ Gremio, Riou, Luc, Jowy, Connell, Sheena... ] six other guys from my world... And there are three cats, too. [ There might even be one in the kitchen.
Tyr pours Klarth a cup, then himself. ] Inviting people to live with you to get rid of the ticking and help around the house isn't bad... You're all helped by living together, so...
[ Then he remembers something and looks up at Klarth. ] How are you books, anyway?
Action 1/2;
Date: 2011-04-27 12:57 am (UTC)[He lightly laughed and gladly took the filled cup.] Indeed.
[He took a sip of it when he noticed him looking at him and lightly sighs.]
Ah.. that. They are all right. Somehow they were all organized once I returned. I must admit, it's not particularly how I would have done so, however, they were neatly put away along with the right page numbers marked with tabs regardless. I was very grateful for that. From the look of it, it must have been Spencer, who must have done so. I have to remember to thank him later.
Action 2/2;
Date: 2011-04-27 12:58 am (UTC)And how are you and Katara getting along?
Action;
Date: 2011-04-27 01:43 am (UTC)[ Tyr nodded, taking in Klarth's explanation. He had wondered, seeing Klarth in that hapless situation before but not saying anything on it. It was a small relief that it was all worked out, though this Spencer, he never heard of him before.
But he supposed Klarth didn't really want to tell him when he leaned forward like that. He couldn't help the small degree of colour that came to his face. Oh, he was not expecting that. ]
All...right. A lot like it has been...
[ Wow, tea sure was interesting and warm. Let him look at it as he holds the cup in his hands. The blastia on his right wrist peeked out from beneath his sleeve. ] ... I've been trying some things to help make it better for us, though...
Action;
Date: 2011-04-28 04:52 am (UTC)[He had to feel a little proud getting him to react like that though the sight of the blastia reminded him of his little mistake and he forced a small cough into his own hand. How embarrassing that day was;;]
Good good. Oh? Such as what?
[He softly encouraged him to continue as he took a sip of his own tea in the process. The summoner could make a few assumptions but it was best to let him come out with it.]
Action;
Date: 2011-04-29 01:51 am (UTC)[ How amazing that day was. Tyr would think of Klarth's words as revenge for that day if not for the fact something else entirely was on his mind.
But if Klarth disliked the view of the blastia, he was going to hate it more when Tyr set his tea down to tug up his sleeve to show it more. ]
Rita is helping me to...try to put my curse under control... So Katara won't be hurt. I don't know what else I could really do for her so she won't... [ He changed his words half-way, to something less painful. ] We can at least have a happy life together...
Action;
Date: 2011-04-30 12:28 am (UTC)If Rita concluded that a blastia would control his curse, then it certainly had to be mana or at least energy related. And what did his condition have to do with Katara? He thought further of an even older incident between them and recalled him mentioning a consequence for anyone who fell in love with him. Just what was going on. He had to get that clear in his mind.]
Explain to me more about this curse, Tyr. What exactly is going on within that you would need a blastia to control?
Action;
Date: 2011-04-30 12:48 am (UTC)He corrected Klarth: ] This is to monitor its energy fluctuation; it can't control anything. Not yet, at any rate...
[ Allowing himself some deep breaths before he continued, he finally released the blastia bracelet and tugged his sleeve back up. Klarth was someone he shouldn't need to hesitate so much with. Honestly, out of everyone from outside of his world, Klarth was the easiest one to speak to. Secrets were just hard to break. ]
In my world, I received a cursed Rune over half a decade ago... It's powerful, but it's not something that acts purely on its bearer's wishes; it has its own evil will. [ And this is where his eyes drift down to the teacup again. ] It's that will that I want to control and suppress. It gains power by taking the souls of people I care for... It kills them.
Action;
Date: 2011-05-01 06:27 am (UTC)[He softened his own expression and allowed him to take his time, trying not to seem too invasive. Klarth recalled the hesitation in the past and could understand how uneasy it must be for him to open up. Selfishly enough, he couldn't help be curious of the situation and the mysteries of the other worlds as much as his own. But in truth... it was always best to be aware of everything around for his own safety and others.
When he finally continued on, Klarth attentively listened with interest. He let out a deep sigh as he pondered with a hand to his chin.]
That certainly is some curse. Can you think of anything that can possibly trigger this overtake?
Action;
Date: 2011-05-01 03:08 pm (UTC)Looking over to his hand, the words seemed more directed at the Rune than Klarth. ] It's just opportunistic, I guess...
Action;
Date: 2011-05-03 05:18 am (UTC)How and when did it happen?
Action;
Date: 2011-05-03 10:06 pm (UTC)Action;
Date: 2011-05-04 04:51 am (UTC)Exactly how did you receive the Rune then and by whom or what? Was it by accident or...
[He trailed off so that perhaps the boy could fill in his thoughts or correct him.]
Action;
Date: 2011-05-04 05:22 am (UTC)My friend gave it to me to look after... And I promised him I would ensure it was safe. [ He lifts his eyes to look up at Klarth again. ] It's a burden, but not one I'll ever rid myself of completely.
Action;
Date: 2011-05-05 03:38 pm (UTC)A friend... This was sounding more in depth than what he had imagined. There were even more questions floating in his mind. Why did his friend have it? Where did it come from? His curiosity grew further. He had to suppress some of that scholarly urge to ask. Not everything should be asked at once, especially seeing him like this.
Though there were certain ones that needed to be answered.]
Why is there a need to keep the Rune safe?
Action;
Date: 2011-05-05 04:08 pm (UTC)Because it's evil. [ He clenched his fist. ] I can't let someone evil take it. The power it has... It's something that could--would hurt people if the wrong person took it.
Action;
Date: 2011-05-06 12:47 am (UTC)Is there anyone in particular you're keeping it away from?
[Dhaos was able to come to this world... there was no telling when his might as well.]
Action;
Date: 2011-05-06 04:51 pm (UTC)I'm keeping it from anyone who would want to use its power now...
[ The fact there were and are cruel people in the City counts. ]
Action;
Date: 2011-05-10 12:34 am (UTC)Hm. I couldn't agree more.
[He stared at it longer before proposing the next.]
Is there no way of destroying it?
