Blewcheese Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 The rippling of Shana's scars caught Dorian's attention. He decided not to bring it up, however, unwilling to ruin her concentration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Percival Posted November 3, 2014 Author Share Posted November 3, 2014 The leaf grows appendages and gouges the two's eyes out. The leaf's texture was rippling, the tactile changing from wood grains to metallic sheen to a statuesque surface. The runes were also slowly deviating, the curves and swirls of the writing slightly moving about on the leaf. The underside of the leaf was a jet black void, lacking the glare it's neighboring side carries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MenaAthena Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Now unnerved by the oddity, Shana slowly and carefully set it down on the ground, black side down. She retracted the shadow appendage, but kept it by her side incase she needed it and continued to observe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blewcheese Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Dorian watched carefully, occasionally casting a glance around them to watch for anything that may attempt to remove their eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Percival Posted November 4, 2014 Author Share Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) (*forces spoon into Mena's eye socket* *proceeds to pull the eye out and quickly, and painfully, severs the eye's nerves, pinching as he did so to taper the flow of blood* *places eyes in a jar and allows blood to flow to create an ethereal pickle of sorts* That hurt.) --------------- "Oh great. Walk off without me and not show me the stuff you happen to find.." Silas laid the bunny and carrots at the place where he supposed the group was last. Sure, there were no marks, but the air had an air of melancholy, which he supposed was Shana, and a conflicting mood of unbased happiness, which he could assume was Dorian; those nonexistent emotions were enough for him. "If I were a sardonic race of creatures that has unbased rationilizations, why would I leave?" Edited November 4, 2014 by Percival Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MenaAthena Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 (Good thing I have spares!*places a device on her head that prys her eyelids back with no apparent loss in vision**takes two mismatch colored eyes, one of them being bloodshot, out of a jar**holds them infront of the empty sockets and the nerve endings on the new eyes shoot out and start fusing into the sockets**lets go of the eyes and they dangle loosely on her face before slowly pulling themselves in place**removes the device and blinks a few times, the residual blood dripping down her face like tears as she smiled gently*There! All better!)With no apparent change in the leaf, Shana took a cautious step toward it. Then another step. And another, each step showing her hesitation. When finally in range, she slowly extended a finger and quickly poked the leaf and ran a few steps back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Percival Posted November 14, 2014 Author Share Posted November 14, 2014 (You could've went on without me. Or not, since I had to describe the leaf.) The leaf shuddered before doing absolutely nothing. (You know what, hand count. Who want's to ditch the turn system?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MenaAthena Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 (It doesn't really matter to me. I'm indifferent.)Seeing again that the leaf didn't change, Shana got a bit closer, the shadowy appendage still by her side."Do... do you think maybe we should show it to Silas?"

Blewcheese Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 (I am also indifferent.) Dorian nodded. "If anyone knows what it is, my guess is that he does. We should head back." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Percival Posted November 15, 2014 Author Share Posted November 15, 2014 (Hm. I am also indifferent. Look at that.) "Damnnit, why do humans have such irrational thoughts?" Silas simply looked around, wandering the area for a sign of Dorian and Shana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MenaAthena Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Shana gave a nod and manipulated the shadow to pick up the leaf just as before. Holding it carefully infront of her, she turned around and started back to camp.The scars started changing. Whether they were growing, shrinking, shortening, or elongating, Dorian couldn't tell. All that could be seen was that they were changing in some way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blewcheese Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Dorian seemed mesmerized by the scars, and his eyes were trained on them as he followed Shana back to the camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Percival Posted November 15, 2014 Author Share Posted November 15, 2014 Silas sat in the middle of the plains, having lost his way around as he searched for Shana and Dorian, simply holding open and reading the leather book, folding the pages back halfway. ". . .Oh! So that's what they were named! They are funny folks, albeit unorthrodox." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MenaAthena Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Shana kept a close eye on the leaf as they eventually made they way back to where they last met. She stopped and looked around, not seeing Silas anywhere. She did, however, see the dead rabbit and carrots he left on the ground. "He must have went out looking for us."

Blewcheese Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 "He should be able to find us soon." Dorian stated nonchalantly, allowing his soul presence to flow around the surrounding area. As Shana was nearby, it had a greater effect on her, and it seemed that something about the soul-seer's presence drew her attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MenaAthena Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 (Blew, don't give the shippers ammo.)Shana surveyed the surrounding area looking for any signs of Silas, but found her gaze drifting back to Dorian quite often. She didn't give it much thought though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Percival Posted November 16, 2014 Author Share Posted November 16, 2014 (I already shipped the two. Packaging love is a horrible process.) Silas began reading through his book, though he paused on several pictures as he perused the pages. ". . .hm?" His fingers ran over a folded corner of the book, the fold subtly tucked between the roiling mass of pages. "Okay. So, what did the last me want me to know?" He opened the binding where the corner was. Only inked words were written on the two pages, each taking up the page. Turn Right At The First Hole. "Oh good. I still have my humor, so at least this wasn't written in a hurry." Silas closed the book and began standing up and began returning to where he left the rabbit carcass. If he was unlucky, he could always follow the smell of rot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MenaAthena Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 (I...may have...sorta...kinda...shippingthemthiswholetime*runs away*)Shana winces and covers her nose with her free hand. How she hated the smell of rotting flesh.Dorian could now see what was changing about the soul scars. They were spreading, little lines like cracks coming out of their sides. They weren't very long, only about a quarter of an inch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
