monday's child is fair of face (2/2)

CW: death, probably gore, possibly more TBA

[and that’s what you missed on glee.

and so, there “Friday” is, standing on the roof of the bar. the attention of the party has surely turned to her by this point, but she doesn’t care about that. she just needs one person to still be a little too distracted to stop what was coming next.

Monday snaps her fingers, and Jenny disappears from wherever she was standing before, reappearing directly in front of Monday, who embraces her from behind, an arm wrapped firmly around her middle. those with enhanced senses might catch what she whispers, seconds before she snaps Jenny’s neck so hard it hangs at a 90 degree angle as Monday kicks her, her corpse toppling forward onto the deck below.]


Surprise, bitch.

[well, there. unfinished business settled. onto more pertinent matters.]

Let’s get a little more comfortable first, hm? Can’t waste too much of her magic, but audiences love a quick change.

[she snaps her fingers, and Monday finds herself in an outfit that is far more to her taste. now. time for her grand performance.]

Greetings, foolish mortals! You may or may not have noticed that things have been a little bit different this month. While the Captain is off having a good old bitch cry about whatever it is he’s so upset about, poor little Friday was running herself ragged keeping this shitheap floating! She was so distracted, in fact, that she happened to have a little accident, while fixing something in the elevator shaft! [a laugh] I guess even clay bitches can break their necks! And there I was, sitting in Fucking Nowhere, doing Fucking Nothing, feeling Fucking. Nothing! And I saw her empty shell. And I was, like, hey, free real estate!

Whatever tear in the veil that your whiny little Captain just didn’t feel like fixing? I ripped that fucker right open. And you’ve all met a few of the sorry little fuckers that fell out already, hm? [another snap] Not all of them, but, hey, that’s what now is for, right? Because, see, we all kinda got together a little bit, and we were like… You know, just borrowing some shitty bodies to have some fun for a few weeks? What a waste! And we still have a lot of bitches we need to spring from jail!

And that! Is where you assholes come in! And, trust me, you are all assholes. Have you even seen some of the psychotic shit you people have said and done to us? Like, yeah, Mary is legitimately insane, but she’s still a kid! Even I’m not gonna call a fucking nine year old a bitch!

You can try to run, but I fucking hate running in heels, so I made that a little bit… difficult. So. Why don’t you nice people just lay down and let us kill you. I’ll be gentle. Promise.

[perhaps people have tried to flee already. they likely have. and they’ve found that the entire party area has been blocked off by the same sort of barrier that surrounds the realm, an invisible orb holding them captive.]

Now. Let’s get the actual party started!

[He's so taken by bloodlust and the thrill of battle, of finally feeling alive after being Nothing for who knows how long, it takes him a moment to realize she's screaming at him. That's right, the kid's called "Yuuki."

He turns around and - oh geez.]


Yuuki's not here anymore.

[He grins at Rita, apologetically. It may be hard to appreciate the sentiment when he's covered with so much blood.]

Look, can you just walk away? I don't mind taking out most of you lot, but hurting his friends by looking like him isn't my style. You're better off NOT spending your last moments thinking about that.

[The sinking feel in her chest turns into an icy cold pit. No...no, no, no. Not after she already thought he was gone once this month, and he finally came back--this can't be happening. This is--even worse, because he's standing right in front of her, outright telling her the awful truth. She shakes her head.]

No--where is he?! Bring him back!

[For better or worse, she grasps on to a single train of thought: bring Natsuno back.

...Please. He has to come back.]


If...if you don't bring him back, I...you'll pay for it...

[She shakily raises a hand in a casting stance, but it's clear her heart isn't entirely in it. What if...she does the wrong thing here? What if what she's seeing and hearing is still all messed up, like it is in her memories now?]
neverleave: (ugh fine)

He's where all souls go once the captain's done with them.

[He sighs and looks at Rita with genuine pity. It was bad enough having to clean Ann's mess, but at least she didn't have to remember that.]

Trust me, I've paid enough and in advance. If you don't walk away I will - you're not gonna ruin this for us.

[A horrible, aching beat later-]

NO-! He wasn't supposed to-!

[He wasn't supposed to disappear on her the first time, and definitely not a second time, either. Her eyes are already welling with tears. Can she...really hurt him like this? She had to join the others in fighting Estelle, but that was also...different, in various ways...]

You...you bastard...how dare you--you can't just take him-!

[She's frozen with hurt and indecision, screaming at him instead of charging him or casting a spell.]

I can and I did. [A rueful smile.] Try to savor the moments you've left.

[He reaches for a nearby animatronic and shoves it forcefully, so it topples over and crashes down between them.

He meant what he said about escaping her. He's not into emotional torment.]

[No, no, this isn't fair, it's not right, it's not right--she makes a wordless scream, maybe finally about ready to run at him--but has no choice but to shield herself and step back instead, as the animatronic smashes into the floor and fog whips up around them.

And--when she looks up, he's not there.]


NO--GET BACK HERE--GIVE HIM BACK-!

[Wherever he is, in all this chaos erupting around them...she intends to track him down, even if she doesn't know what she'll do when she does.

So maybe it's a good thing she doesn't manage to.]
