[PRP] Movie night [America/Shun]

[Blade Kuroda]

"Not sure... It would be nice if we could hear what they are saying, though," he stated, furrowing his brow. All he could get so far was these two were working on a sigil, and it seemed like Adoelle was giving direction.

Recalling something, he glanced to where his radio was. It had been silent so far.

There was no response from his radio but there was, quite suddenly, a snort from a table nearby.

"You're foolish to think that you get to hear something every time."

On the nearby table, sitting in front of a plate of vegetables was a small chipmunk that was on a rather ... elaborate looking harness that had a chain that disappeared into nothing but clearly was keeping him from escaping.

On the screen, the pair continued to talk and notes were made though now sound was heard. There was a flash on the screen, Ming and Jennifer, both visible and looking ... ill at ease.

"Ohmygosh! The Destroyer?!" America cried joyfully, jumping up to run for a closer look at what had to be the The Evil Chipmunk. And promptly tripping over the handle of a spoon. Good thing Shun was on the case with all his elite detective observation skills that would absolutely not be distracted by shenanigans.

"Oh, ******** off, Destroyer," Shun muttered, frowning lightly at the evil chipmunk, "America, stay away from him."

He gave the Destroyer one glance, taking note of his magical bindings, then turned his attention back to the big screen. Ming, he recognized. The other, he could only assume to be Jennifer. He looked between the four of them, furrowing his brow.

Were it possible to be flipped off by a chipmunk, that was absolutely what would be happening right now. Instead there was just a series of annoyed throaty chirps.

"You're an idiot," he told Shun. "At least your companion is redeemable."

Ming and Jennifer were alone on the screen after it had flashed, Noeh and Adoelle having faded away in a transition shot. Something was off about them both, as if they weren't quite like Noeh or Adoelle at all.

Ming curled in upon himself, hands pressed to the side of his head.

America preened at the almost-praise from the tiny evil being and then the screen caught her attention once again. Her heart dropped a bit at the whole of it. Seeing Ming like that brought Pax fully back to the forefront of her thoughts. "It got messed up, somewhere...nobody seems glad or happy about what they're doing. They gotta do it, but there's no...hope in it. Is this when they change to deer people?"

Shun ignored the Destroyer. There were more important things at hand. He kept his focus on what was playing, furrowing his brow as he watched Ming appear to be in considerable pain.

"It... it might be."

It wasn't pain, at least not physical pain. There looked to be nothing wrong with Ming - not that one could tell from the graininess of the film (it was old, what they were watching) - and Jennifer stood off to the side, staring.

... and then the entire screen went red, the sound of labored breathing the first sound the 'movie' had made.

The girl froze up as the movie liberally splashed them all with red light. The breathing had her inching closer to Shun until she had her arms around his little finger. "Well this is kinda spooky" she laughed nervously.

Shun remained silent as the screen went red. He just watched intently, waiting to see what came next.

The sound of heavy breathing continued, the screen pulling back to show a girl with blood on her shoulder, though her face could not be seen, carried gently by what looked like a rotting corpse.

A fetch, most likely.

On her shoulder was a mark, though it was blurred and out of focus.

"Oh this is new ... I had always wondered if I would get to see something I've not seen before," Dee spoke, seemingly delighted in the apparent disturbing nature of what was on screen.

"Whoa...zombies!" America had moved on from her sundae to gnawing on a fluffy piece of popcorn. "Did they...did they carve a magic right into her?"

[Blade Kuroda]

"I think that is a fetch, America. In their true state, they look like that," he explained.

Shun eyed the mark on the shoulder, furrowing his brow. All the while, he was trying to identify just who the girl was. He had a guess or two, but guesses weren't really enough.

"Possibly. It certainly looks that way... which... I cannot imagine being particularly healthy for her."

[azuredreams]

The girl on the screen was small- a dainty thing. Her hair was dark but her face was completely shadowed by it. There was something about the look on the fetch's face: it was respectful, reverent.

"Probably go to war for that girl, I bet," Dee said, chomping on a piece of broccoli.

A bit of bone was visible, though it was quickly healing as skin and flesh knit themselves back together and when it was done - though she was still unconscious and the fetch holding her up - the mark that had been there on bone was now on her flesh as if it was a tattoo.

"Bone deep...poor thing," America chewed furiously on her buttery puff for a moment. By now she was a very gross, if very tiny, human. "So were the fetches around before the court then? Are we gonna go to war with them?"
