I'm going.

[ He was going to try and fail, but hey. ]

You wanna come with?
justbeingknife: (observe)

TIMESKIP I guess??

[ After they'd set up a time to meet, Majima made his way over to the woods of the Park, before the mountain itself. As usual, he looked ready to go. Not quite as usual, he was wearing the pale body armor that he'd retrieved from the F.E.A.R. armory.

The last time he'd been up, it had helped blend into the snow up on the mountain. More importantly, it was warm -- an essential for higher altitude exploration. ]


I don't know what we'll find up there, but I hope it's some answers. Ready to go?
justbeingknife: (attention)

Then you can leave that part to me.

[ TEAMWORK. Majima headed in the direction of the mountain, careful to keep to the path. ]

Should be some staircases around here somewhere; they lead straight up to the mountain as long as ya watch your step.

[ A light dusting of snow crunched quietly underfoot. ]

You never been this far out in the Park, right?

A couple of times. The last time, it was with Rei... Hino, I mean. Ran into a wendigo. I figure there's more than just those out here, though.

It's -- hey, what's that?

[ Up ahead was a metal gleam, half-buried in snow. It looked like... a coin? Majima walked up to it, frowning. ]

What, someone lose their pirate treasure out here?
justbeingknife: (what was that?)

[personal profile] justbeingknife 2018-10-07 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
A bug?

[ The insect flapped its gauzy wings sluggishly, and then Majima noticed a few more glints of gold, this time contained in the hollow of an old tree. There was the whirring of numerous wings, and then he was bringing up a hand as the gold-backed bugs flew at them. There weren't all that many of them -- perhaps the cooling whether was making them sluggish, but he had no experience fighting bugs and no desire to stick around and find out how hard they could bite. Or if they were venomous.

C'mon, let's get the hell outta here!

[ If Yuri didn't get a move on, he'd grab for her hand to pull her onward. ]

cw: bugs I guess

[personal profile] justbeingknife 2018-10-08 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
Hell if I know!

[ In a way, the bugs were kind of beautiful, in the way that a scarab was beautiful as long as you didn't turn it over and see the horrible too-many legs underneath, wriggling and... gah. He was freaking himself out. ]

I ain't pack any bug spray, either!

[ God, all these inventory slots and he'd forgotten the most important thing for hiking in the woods. He drew his dagger as they ran, swiping at a few bugs that strayed too close. Strangely enough, they seemed to stray away from either the heat or flame generated by the blade, and one that had flown too close burned up once in contact with the dagger itself. ]

It's from back home -- had it forever!

[ Majima waved away more of the bugs as they ran; at least they'd thinned out the impromptu swarm! Now the remnants, perhaps either because of autumn sluggishness or the livelier-than-usual efforts of their prey, seemed to be wavering in their pursuit. ]

Only since I been here, it's changed. Never used to set things on fire.

[ Don't get him wrong, though! He enjoyed the change. ]

You gettin' some good photos?
justbeingknife: (alert)

[personal profile] justbeingknife 2018-10-09 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
[ So Majima began to slow to a stop, looking back over his shoulder to make doubly sure the bugs had given up on them. ]

Ya okay? Didn't get stung or anythin'?

[ This expedition was off to a GREAT START, that was for sure. At least the woods and trail in front of them were quiet, aside from the occasional birdsong. ]
justbeingknife: (attention)

[personal profile] justbeingknife 2018-10-09 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Majima shook his head as he caught his breath. Human-shaped enemies were way easier to deal with. ]

Here's hopin'. But check it out -- we're a lot closer. And do you hear somethin'?

[ Before, he'd only been listening to the pounding in his ears and the whirring of insect wings, but now it sounded like some kind of humming in the background. ]

I don't remember that sound from before.
justbeingknife: (what was that?)

[personal profile] justbeingknife 2018-10-11 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
[ At what cost, indeed. Yet the further they traveled along the trail, the the more convinced he became it was the same humming over and over, repeated. ]

We should've come across one of them staircases by now. They're impossible to miss.

[ Ah, but up ahead was a break in the trees. ]

That's the mountain, but...

[ Didn't it seem different, somehow? If one looked at it long enough, didn't it resemble a strange, curled-up figure? ]

That's the same thing I saw back durin' the carriage rides.

[ How rude, calling it a thing!! Although Majima was a little at a loss as to what to call the being. ]

But it's different now. And what the hell are those legs?

[ Those strange, unearthly legs digging into the being's head looked like they were grasping, trying to keep hold. It looked like there was a layer of rock binding the figure in place, too. ]
justbeingknife: (what the hell)

[personal profile] justbeingknife 2018-10-12 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
It's worth a try. Worst comes to worst, we can run for it.

[ Was that humming coming from the giant being? From the legs? Somewhere else? He continued forward, a bit more cautiously now. ]

Maybe it is Sodder. It stepped in when all those beasts were attackin' us.
