07. spam

[ He builds you, in his mind, from the slivers of sight and sound that fall through the cracks of your world into his. He catches the curve of your hand, the glance of sunlight off of hat and hair, through the gaps of rope and rigging and rail. He goes still, and lets himself sink, and listens to the muffled half-sounds that hum in the water against his skin. He can hear your voice, from the dim-and-dullness, the quiet riot.

He is a patch of pale skin and a long, winding tail distorted by restless water. He is intrigued, but he is... shy? Cautious.

He will follow you anywhere there is water to swim. ]


[ ooc: Zane is a merperson who is spying on everyone, particularly people he finds intriguing or dangerous. This is especially open to people that we've plotted/discussed him stalking, but also open to... yep, pretty much everyone who wants to spot a mercreeper.

Also available for general interaction for fellow water-and-island-creatures! ]
patheticvillain: (ʭ you're gonna go far kid)

Huh. I'd like to be less fragile.

[Being fragile sucks. So much. What do you even do with a broken bone on a pirate ship, huh?]

[The question makes him grin, though. He points at the treasure across the cave.]


The other ones have things we want.
patheticvillain: (ʭ it's a scene about me)

[personal profile] patheticvillain 2013-05-07 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
That's it. I like getting what I want. Don't you?

. . . After all, you did just nearly to drown me so you could talk to me.
patheticvillain: (ʭ see 'em running for their lives)

[personal profile] patheticvillain 2013-05-07 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
Well, a few minutes more. [He waves his hand.] Not the point. You like getting what you want, too!
patheticvillain: (ʭ you do what you do)

[personal profile] patheticvillain 2013-05-07 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
Not that. I mean you got me. So I could answer your questions.

[He doesn't move away, though he eyes Zane suspiciously.]

Or am I wrong?
patheticvillain: (ʭ nothing more to say)

[personal profile] patheticvillain 2013-05-07 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
Right, you were interested. In me.

[He's smirking, now.]

I can see that, of course, you've got a spike in your chest. Plus a tail.
patheticvillain: (ʭ i think you like to be in pain)

[personal profile] patheticvillain 2013-05-07 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I see that too, you threw me in the water. And it sort of hurt.

Have you ever wanted to walk on land?
patheticvillain: (ʭ play all the right games)

[personal profile] patheticvillain 2013-05-07 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.

[And. Now he's sulking. Why can't he have a tail when he wants to? This is unfair.]

But you've never seen a city.
patheticvillain: (ʭ so play it out)

[personal profile] patheticvillain 2013-05-07 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
What's it like? All those things.

. . . Don't show me, by the way.
patheticvillain: (ʭ & now you steal away)

[personal profile] patheticvillain 2013-05-07 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
What are you good at?
patheticvillain: (ʭ & emotion fades away)

[personal profile] patheticvillain 2013-05-07 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
Ha. In that order?
patheticvillain: (ʭ lost all that you could)

[personal profile] patheticvillain 2013-05-07 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
[He does. That's how curious he is, and how stupid. The feel of Zane's scales are baffling, wholly new, and he frowns, unfocused with concentration.]

That's . . . not what it's like up here.

[Maybe he's right, maybe it's better.]
patheticvillain: (ʭ almost every single day)

[personal profile] patheticvillain 2013-05-07 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
[He traces the outline of one scale, still frowning.]

I don't want to be.

[Then he lifts his hand, lets it hover over the spike. A question.]

Do you like the sound of water pressed against your ears all the time? It doesn't make you feel - [What is that word.] Stifled?
