[OPEN] i scream we scream for...??

[reprizesal]

Who: Sayo and YOU.
What: Sayo went into ViViD to grind for points to get something. Afterwards, he checked out an ice cream stall’s selection of… odd flavours?
When: May 19th (IC) | February 7th/8th (OOC), May 20th (IC) | February 9th/10th (OOC)
Where: ViViD, Shopping District
Warnings: Violence in ViViD later.

► A: Game Start_
[Sayo never really hides his dislike and distrust of ViViD. It’s buggy, it drags people inside, it cause them trouble and sometimes, bring up things that’s unnecessary for others to know.

And yet, here he is.

Sayo probably would stand out a lot, by the sheer fact that he’s probably one of the smallest players around using ViViD. Depending on your choice, you could:

1. Pre-ViViD session: Chat with him and maybe team up? Sayo wouldn’t decline any offers to team up, since he knows teamwork is important.
2. Assassin’s Creed Killer’s Code: Your mission, should you choose to fulfil it, is to assassinate certain targets inside a city. Your score will be marked based on stealth, approach and non-target NPC reactions to your actions. Sayo can do it, but what is your approach to go with his? Will it mesh well... or cause conflict and wreck your scores in the process?
3. Alien Warriors: Free for all brawl?! Take many enemies, all with strange appearances, within the time limit! Maybe fulfil some optional objectives while you’re at it for extra points? Maybe you should watch out for Sayo, since tantou aren’t designed for all-out fighting like this virtual battlefield.

No matter what, he's here to get points for a certain thing.]

► B: Ice cream pun here_
[After school, Sayo’s in the shopping district and taking a good look around for anything that might be useful. Or good deals, so he can report it back to everyone once he’s back home. At one point, he stopped and was looking at an ice cream stall’s flavour selection. There’s the standard flavours, along with the more… unusual choices. Odd enough that Sayo would actually look up at someone (he’s so small, sometimes he wants to be taller--) and ask.]

Is that one good?

[And points at the flavour he’s asking about. Take your pick, it’s still a weird flavour. And possibly discourage him against buying it… or enable him?!]

[Since he's a small tantou, projectiles tends to be a big thing for him to worry about, especially if the battlefield take place during the "day". After he take down a particularly odd looking alien warrior (is that its arm or its antenna he sliced into?) and giving himself some breathing room, he looks over to see a man with a bow.]

Got it! Do you need me to cover for you?

[This (very) small fella is stronger than he looks.]

[itcamefromthe1950s]

Um... yes? [He sounds unsure, mostly due to being frazzled. He keeps firing, but he's not getting a lot of hits. But this kid(?) really seems to know what he's doing, so Freddie won't turn down the help.

I think this is too high of a difficulty level for me, maybe. I'm still really new at this...!

[reprizesal]

[Sayo quickly looks at where the man's arrows hit. There's some that hit the enemies, but not all of the arrows do. He quickly looks back at the man and makes his way over towards him.]

If it's too difficult, then we just finish this fast. We can leave afterwards or switch over to an easier level for you.

[Sayo glance around, checking for any alien warriors that's closing in on them. His hand is still gripping his sword, which is practically a dagger in length.]

[itcamefromthe1950s]

Sounds good to me. You seem to be handling it well, though.

[Freddie's shaking just a little bit. He feels silly getting so bent out of shape over a simulation, but ViViD was too real for him sometimes. His nerves weren't helping his shooting much either so it was probably best to end this soon.

When the next wave of creatures shows up, he at least doesn't hesitate to start firing again. But each attempt was less accurate than the last.]

[reprizesal]

I'm used to battles.

[He says as if he's experienced with fighting a lot like this. Sayo moves in, quite fast for his size, and starts aiming for the monster warriors Freddie's shooting at (or tried to). Sayo's trying to finish this fast for the man's sake, so he try to aim at... what he thinks are their vital points.

Alien anatomy is weird, okay?

All while keeping an eye on Freddie. He didn't know how experienced he is with ViViD and respawning, but Sayo prefers either of them didn't "die" here. He still doesn't trust ViViD, after all.]

[itcamefromthe1950s]

[Freddie isn't much of a fighter, but he is fast-thinking and fast-moving. While he looks frightened and overwhelmed, and he's not shooting well, he's actually keeping a good eye on himself and his surroundings. That's probably the big reason he's falling behind on hits. He's too worried about saving his own bacon, and backing away from the hordes before they can get to him.]

Are we almost done yet?

[reprizesal]

I think we're almost done.

[This is the first time they both work together, but it seems like they're thinning out the monster crowd slowly. It doesn't seem like there's any more monsters spawning?

Sayo jumps away after he stab a monster in the eyes. (Well, he thinks it's their eyes...) He quickly glance over to check on Freddie, seeing a particularly large enemy spawning in behind him.]

Behind you!

[itcamefromthe1950s]

[Well, maybe he's not keeping a perfect eye on his surroundings. He turns quickly and yelps at the sight of a monster about to barrel down on top of him, and totally freezes. Just like his brain completely shut off at the sight of one being so close, real or not.

Either Sayo will have to help, or Freddie's out for this session.]
