Day 36 - [Action] 4TH WALL

[babel_hacker]

[For anyone checking out Fuchsia’s movie sets, or even walking around the city, you might hear a voice. Or several voices.]

Hee ho!

Hey, stop!

[When you turn to look, you would see Atsuro riding a Cerberus and chasing after a group of Jack Frosts. If you’re unlucky, you might get hit by a stray ice spells from the Fairy demons.

...And, uh, better get out of the way.]

[Dorumon looks up just in time to leap out of the way of an ice attack. Reflexively, he crouches low to the ground, jumps, and retaliates.]

Metal Cannon!

[A small cannonball hurtles in the direction the demon's attack came from.]

[babel_hacker]

[Down goes a Jack Frost! Seeing their friend fell, the Jack Frosts looks over at Dorumon.

Hi?]

Hee ho...!

What the--a demon? [Atsuro pulls out his fully functional COMP to check.]

[digitalorunknown]

[Oh shit now they're all looking this way. Can he take 'em...?

The fuzzy dragon isn't a demon, but the COMP might be able to pick up something from his digital-monster nature, even if that something is garbled data that didn't translate too well into demon stats. He seems focused on the Jack Frosts and not interested in attacking anything else.]

[babel_hacker]

[Okay, the readings are weird. But Atsuro will worry about it after dealing with the Jack Frosts.

One of them fell from the cannonball, as he tighten his grip on Cerberus's mane and the beast leaps in. And breathes out fire at some of the surprised Jack Frosts.]

[digitalorunknown]

[Dorumon's always ready to defend himself, but he doesn't want to get involved in a fight if he has to. He backs up, ears flattening, and sinks into the tall grass to keep an eye on the battle from a safe distance.]

[babel_hacker]

[Scatteeeeer! The Jack Frosts split up, hoping to lose Atsuro and Cerberus.]

Hey! Get back here!

[Atsuro's torn between chasing after them and checking out the strange readings. He looks between the fleeing Frosts and his COMP.]

...Who fired that cannonball? Are you still here?

[digitalorunknown]

[...Dorumon stands up, ears flicking, and takes a step halfway out of the grass, watching Atsuro and his liondog with a wary expression.

It's worth being careful around anything that breathes fire, even if it weren't as big as Cerberus is.]

[babel_hacker]

[After a moment, Atsuro slide off from Cerberus's back.]

Can you talk?

[digitalorunknown]

[Nod.] Why were you chasing them? [And do you have any intention of chasing me?]

[babel_hacker]

They're causing trouble, so I try to stop them. It kinda spiralled from there. [More or less. So if DORUmon is nice, Atsuro have no reason to chase him.]

[digitalorunknown]

[...Well, they were throwing attacks around, weren't they? It's instinct to be wary of anyone who claims to be keeping the peace, but that sounds reasonable enough. He nods after hesitating for a moment.

His gaze flicks down to Cerberus' face and stays there. That's the one he's most concerned about right now - the lack of introduction isn't reassuring.]
