40th Sphere (backdated to Saturday morning after the event)

[Jecht wakes up with a gasp safe and sound in his own bed - well, the one he's been calling his own for the past couple of months, at least.  For some reason, Yuugi isn't there passed out drunk next to him like she usually is, but that isn't the first thing on his mind.  Growling and rubbing at where he'd been stabbed in the neck the night previous, he throws off the covers and storms downstairs to use the phone.]

"Banika Conchita.  Dunno who the hell she is, but she fuckin' stabbed me in the goddamn throat and killed me in that stupid hotel last night.  Figured the rest of you'd wanna know there's one more psycho murdering bitch runnin' around this town.  And if you're listenin' too - you're dead next time I see you.  Eye for an eye.  I'm sick of this bullshit."

[Jecht slams down the phone, wandering toward the door.  He's intercepted by Yuugi's drone, who is already awake and cheerfully fixing breakfast.  Grumbling angrily, he picks the phone back up and dials out again.]


"Oh yeah.  Yuugi's droned too, for anyone who gives a shit about that.  Anybody needs me, I'll be on the beach."

[He doesn't wait for responses to the second call, heading straight outside to swim and relax on his makeshift beach.  It's Labor Day weekend, after all, so it's more or less getting to be his last chance to do stuff like this before the weather starts to get cold again.  After a short time, the postman comes by to drop off a package, tipping his hat and grinning.  Jecht doesn't trust it, but he figures everything else that's arrived this way has been fine, so he eventually decides to just open it.  Out of the long and bulky package, he draws a pretty badass looking greatsword.  After grinning and taking a few practice swings, he plunges it into the sand next to his lawn chair.]

"Well, 'least I got somethin' back for my trouble."

((OOC: Please let me know whether you're responding to the phone stuff or the action stuff when you reply.  For anyone who wants to talk to him about Yuugi, they can respond in person at the action part since he hung up right away after announcing that.))

[Jecht sits up from his lawn chair and just grins. Crowe should know that grin by now.]

"Yeah. Hell of a sword, ain't it? Been a long time."

It's really cool, actually! I've never seen anything like it. It looks really heavy though.

[Stands up and yanks it out of the ground with one hand - with only marginal difficulty. After all, like he said, it has been a little while since he's used it.]

"Not so bad once you get used to it. It's weighted pretty good, y'know?"

[Swings it in a wide, low sweep before slinging it up over his shoulder.]

"Just like I remembered."

[He looks impressed, but he doesn't find it surprising that you can just swing that around 1-handed.]

Ha, and all I got back was my clothes. Pretty boring in comparison.

[Digs the sword back into the sand, shrugging a little.]

"Eh, clothes woulda been nice too. Can't stand the shit they got to wear here. Too hard to move around in."

They're not a lot different from what I have here. I-I mostly wear suits. But they're a more modern style since I'm about 50 years ahead of this place. And they're tailored too. [He shrugs.] It's not like I have anywhere to wear them around here anyway, so they're just going to sit in my closet for the most part...

"Maybe you can wear 'em next time the damn town decides to lock people up in hotels 'n shit on dates together."

[He's practically sneering at this.]

Ah. Let's hope not. I-I'm guessing yours went as well as mine then?

[identity profile] child-abuser.livejournal.com 2010-09-06 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Depends. Did your date stab you in the damn neck with silverware?

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-09-06 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[Blinkblinkblink.] No... mind has some sort of monster explode out of her back. Y-you really got stabbed?! Who were you with?

[identity profile] child-abuser.livejournal.com 2010-09-06 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Some crazy bitch named Banika Conchita. If I see her again, I'm gonna kill her.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-09-06 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think I know her, but I'll be sure to avoid her... did... did she kill you? What happened?

[identity profile] child-abuser.livejournal.com 2010-09-06 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. She got me while I was takin' a nap. Couldn't stop the blood in time. Kicked her ass pretty good before I passed out, though.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-09-06 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
My God.... why would she... [Shakes his head.] I really just don't understand the people in this town.

[identity profile] child-abuser.livejournal.com 2010-09-06 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
'Cause she's a crazy bitch! Who the fuck evern knows.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-09-06 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow. I-I'm sorry to hear it. I guess we're safe until next year... you know that the same thing happened last year as well? Or so my "date' told me...

[identity profile] child-abuser.livejournal.com 2010-09-06 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, great. Nice to know I've got that to look forward to every damn year.

And here I thought this was a pretty tame stunt for Mayfield to pull. But I suppose it depends on who you get stuck with then...

[identity profile] child-abuser.livejournal.com 2010-09-07 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Guess so.
