❂ fifth | accidental video post

[ the camera snaps on, revealing Tristan carefully examining an object in his hand - it's green, shaped like a ping pong ball, and unmistakeably a mushroom. ]

But it's just a mushroom!

...Still, they say it's a mushroom that can bring someone back to life. I can't say I need it and hope to never, but it'd be awfully useful to have. Only a fool would throw it away, really.

What odd luck, though I'm certainly not compl-

[ a deep roar clips off the end of his sentence. The timbre can only belong to that of the King Queen of the Jungle-- a motherfucking lion.]

Wh- What- What was that? Oh god, why is there- why is there a lion sitting on the couch?

[ The video pans out to focus on the animal sitting there comfortably on the sofa. She seems unperturbed and rather unimpressed by Tristan's ruckus and clatter. Also, she may have just rolled her eyes, or at least as close to an eyeroll a lion can manage. ]

Calm yourself, Tristan.

Calm? You're telling me to be calm! There's a bloody lioness in my home. I left the forest to avoid lions, now- now they come wandering into my house!

And am I ever glad about that. An entire month spent living in a forest? We are not animals.

You're- You. You're talking to me right now, aren't you?

What do you see before you?

[ pauuuuse. ]

Yvaine! Get the meat from the ice box! Hurry, there should be some left over from-

Please calm down before you hurt yourself, Tristan.

I am reasonably calm considering the situation! Honestly, get out of here-

[ A heavy, rectangular object flies into the camera's view, hitting the unimpressed lion in the back. Seems like Tristan had a sudden spark of courage, too bad it comes with unfortunate results. The camera switches to focus on Tristan, who's currently bent over and nursing a bruise on his back. ]

OW! Ow. Jesus Christ. What the hell was that?

I have to admit. The only reason I didn't dodge was for that reaction.

I- I won't let you eat the girl!

I am not going to eat her, Tristan. You're being unnecessarily dramatic.

Stop making such a racket, Tristan!

Don' want t'be eaten!

If I desired to eat you, it would only be because he wants to eat you.

That didn't even make any sense!

[ more clattering and shuffling ]

I told you- I told you to remove yourself from my home. I won't say it again.

[She's mostly just looking very confused over here, watching the exchange between them.]

[identity profile] shiningdown.livejournal.com 2009-10-26 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, and she's being quite civil, unlike certain others.

audio

[identity profile] gazingup.livejournal.com 2009-10-26 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
But that doesn't change the fact that she's a lion! With claws! And sharp, pointy teeth! And a stomach that's waiting to be filled with flesh!

[ you can assume she gave the lioness a tired glance ]

Well she doesn't seem to be leaping up to the opportunity.

[identity profile] gazingup.livejournal.com 2009-10-26 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
I may have to change to something smaller, if he continues with this display. My apologies, Yvaine. Among other apologies he owes you.

A mouse would work.

audio; MY REPLY DISAPPEARED I HATE YOU LIVEJOURNAL

...and she's just leaping at the opportunity.

[identity profile] shiningdown.livejournal.com 2009-10-26 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
No apologies are necessary, truly.

[ pause ]

Well, he is young. Perhaps he will grow into you.

Don't be afraid of me, child. Though you may be afraid of how Tristan might hurt himself he continues-

[ another thump followed by a similar yell ]

Will you stop throwing things at me, Tristan?

audio

[identity profile] gazingup.livejournal.com 2009-10-26 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
Grow into it?

We're not keeping the lion as a pet, Yvaine. And if you think otherwise, you're completely out of your mind.

/watches it puke it out in two hours

[identity profile] gazingup.livejournal.com 2009-10-26 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
She's planning, Yvaine. Lions are sneaky like that.

...'ve never seen a talkin' lion b'fore. [Actually she's never seen a lion before at all.]

[identity profile] gazingup.livejournal.com 2009-10-26 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
I do prefer this form.

Eat him and relieve us from this headache.

[identity profile] primrosella.livejournal.com 2009-10-26 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, she's a lion, is she? My, I never would have guessed it.

[identity profile] shiningdown.livejournal.com 2009-10-26 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
Oh you don't want to?

That's a shame.

[ oh she is LAUGHING....on the inside ]
