[closed - event] i don't understand how you're gone

Characters: the Damsels.
Date: They awake the morning of the 3rd.
Summary: The adventures of the captive damsels aboard the ship Labrys.
Warnings: None at this moment.

[The morning is rising, the early sun spreading streaks of red and gold out across the surrounding cloudscape, thin beams penetrating the wooden Labrys, spilling across its planks. It is an unfamiliar place that you will awaken in, one filled with the creaking of wood and the musical rattle of dried out bones. Did you think those skeletons carting you off in the night were a dream? Well, now you know for certain. Now you sit in a cage, cold steel surrounding you and cold steel at ankles and wrists. You are a captive.

And soon enough, your captor's shadow falls over you. Her dark hair is wind-tousled, her skin a silken brown. And she is smiling.]

Good morning, ladies.

[Kyoko is...essentially flailing around. It's an attempt to be threatening, but uh.]

Fools! If you don't let me go I'll destroy you all! I will get my power back, and when you do you're doomed!

[She carries on like this for quite some time.]

[adelicateflame]

[The skeletons around her do actually look up at 'Fools.' but upon establishing that it is not their captain speaking go right back to their scheduled tasks. They don't seem too threatened, cause uh...]

[disillusionment]

[Kyoko really doesn't seem to care how pointless her threats are, as she just keeps going.]

I'll crush you all into powder if you don't let me go!

[And on. And on. And on.]

[adelicateflame]

[Eventually, someone brings her a bowl of fruit. Maybe eating will shut her up?]

[disillusionment]

[Kyoko glares at it for a while, but sooner or later she becomes weak enough to pick up a piece and examine it, checking for poison. Once she's reasonably certain it's safe to eat, she devours it all.

Then goes right back to her threats. Fearsome, huh?]

[adelicateflame]

[The skeletons hang their heads in defeat momentarily before they give up and go back to their usual tasks. Some of them take up games of darts or cards while others scrub the deck and hem hails.]

[disillusionment]

Hey! Why don't you take me seriously?! I could mop the floor with you bags of bones!

[adelicateflame]

[Mop the floor? Well! Don't mind if you do! Somebody offers her a mop and bucket.]

[disillusionment]

[Okay, now she's pissed.]

ARRRRGH!!!!!

[And she attempts a Kyoko Smash.

...But trips over her ball and chain. And falls right on her face.]

[adelicateflame]

[Oh. Uhm. There is silence for a moment before that giggling creeps slowly back in. Someone nudges the mop and bucket closer to her prone form.

She might have better luck with that than her face.]
