002 Acts of Kindness

Characters: Darres & Anyone
Setting: Floor 3 (Library), 10 (Aquarium), 19 (Sec. Library)
Format: Either
Summary: Darres is going about some of his usual routines around the tower.
Warnings: None?

[Floor 3 (Library)]
[Darres was in here for the same reason he always came to this floor. The knight was in search for some decent, non-dark story books to read to Quark. The knight was even more protective of the child than he use to be. Having the kid die in his arms, anyone would become more caring of another. While death was not permanent here, it still pang him that he wasn't able to prevent it. The best he could do was try to keep the kid from slipping into the darkness that the tower taunted its residents with. This round, Darres was in search of particularly happy stories he could read to Quark. He could be found around the library collecting books.]


[Floor 10 (Aquarium)]
[The aquarium was more therapeutic for the knight than anything. He was continually rattled as his stay here grew longer. Back home he wasn't quite so useless as he was finding himself to be here. He wanted to save those who wanted it. Darres wants to help those who couldn't help themselves, but he was finding it to be rather difficult with how he was thwarted.

The knight was peacefully stationed in part of the aquarium where the fish roamed freely. Jumping from tank to tank and going about their business as if he wasn't here. There was a certain beauty to them that he found to be soothing. It was a nice break from the chaos that constantly plagued the tower. He himself was almost at peace?]


[Floor 19 (Second Library)]
[Darres decided it was time he really buckled down and hit the books to better his knowledge of things outside of his world. He wasn't sure how long he was going to be away from it, and as far as he was concerned, knowledge was a useful tool in various situations. The knight was diligently digging through the science portion of the library trying to better himself in the science field. From what he's gathered, the tower was full of this theme.]

This.

[ She just holds the chainsaw in her hands, raising it a little as if she's showing it off to him while the fish guts slowly drip onto the floor. Isn't that a very helpful and informative answer? ]

i gave you the best opportunity, clearly

It's a chainsaw. A lot of people know what they are..

[ It's why she frowns reaaaally slightly. As if she's pondering whether he's really alright if he doesn't know that. ]
chainsawn: (that’s strange since even so)

... You don't have chainsaws?

[ She almost sounds disappointed more than surprised. What fun is a world without chainsaws, huh. ]
chainsawn: (an important place in my chest aches)

Your world sounds like it's really boring.

[ BLUNTLY.. or, well, she's saying it with such a blank tone that it takes some of the bluntness out of it, actually. ]

Um..

[ She has to pause for a moment. How would she describe her world? After all.. ]

.. It's normal. [ TO HER, OF COURSE... She's not too eloquent most of the time. ] A lot of normal things happen there. And a lot of normal people live there.
chainsawn: (and the future we promised)

[personal profile] chainsawn 2013-10-17 07:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Normal by the standards of normal things.

[ Ah. Yes. Very clearly and aptly described, isn't it. ]

[ She points at him. ]

You look pretty normal to me.

Even if your world is the weird kind of world that doesn't even have chainsaws.
