Ruddiger! My greatest henchman, I'm betrayed.
[Ruddiger doesn't give a frosty shit. He's staying upstairs, ignoring all this.
Also, shit. He didn't think of any terms because he'd honestly just been having a good time setting off all his booby traps on her. ]
Uhh.
[Give him a second, he's thinking.]
I- definately have terms which I for sure had prepared in advance.
no subject
[She snorts. Then smiles. It was pretty clear he didn't have any terms set up. She'll prop up Crescent Rose and just leans against it for now.]
Do you need me to give you a minute? Are they written down somewhere? I can grab them if you need me to.
[She glances around looking to try and see if she can make out any final traps between her and Varian.]
no subject
[Okay this is embarrassing. He raises a finger into the air.]
NO! No- I've- I've got it. Good terms, too. Really dastardly ones.
[There aren't any final traps. Because he's not about to fire any right at her face. ]
I demand a great sacrifice for you! [yeah he is absolutely winging it] Um. [Shit. Why doesn't he ever think anything through?] A... plate of your favourite cookies?
[Wow. Fucking flawless.]
no subject
[Just leans a bit heavier against the scythe. She looks down at the clock on her fluid and just smiles.]
Okay. okay. I believe you.
[She doesn't believe him but it's freakin' adorable.
She's got a semblance, she wouldn't be afraid. But they're actually down in his lab now and things are more volatile there and it makes sense.
Oh wait- they're starting again.
She stares a little deadpan at the sacrifice she definitely didn't bring any cookies with her because they're winging it at this point.]
Really? Like right now? Because I didn't bring any wi-
[She stops herself because that's breaking character. Instead she steps back, clearly aghast at this steep offering he was demanding.]
-I mean-You fiend! Where am I supposed to get such delicious treats on such short notice?
Not to mention the personal cost! It cuts deep, villain
no subject
This is ridiculous and he knows it, but that's the best part. He gives a shrug, slipping back into an act that once upon a time genuinely wasn't one, patting Zwei idly.]
That's for you to be concerned about. Until then, the dog is mine.
no subject
How could someone make her choose between two of the greatest loves in her life.]
You're a monster, Varian. A monster.
Fine... You'll get your cookies.
Just don't be too rough on Zwei while I'm gone.
no subject
An acurate estimation, Ruby.
[He sits back, giving an idle, dismissive wave of his hand.]
I make no promises. My mercy only lasts so long, I'll have you know.
no subject
You'll get what you're after, Varian. Then you'll get what you deserve.
[Which will probably be a round of applause for his job at this, because wow. She hasn't had this much fun in awhile.]
Then I guess I don't have a moment to lose.
[She rises back up to her feet and turns around. She doesn't start to move and instead turns to look back and give Zwei one more thoughtful look.
Then it's her turn to improvise. She could go and just get some cookies and come back but that means game over for now and that's no fun.
She turns her attention back to Varian.]
I assume you'll be accompanying me personally. Or at least sending your trusted minion. Y'know. So I don't get up to any funny business while I'm gone?
no subject
Brave words! I think you might be getting a little ahead of yourself.
[Him too, honestly. It's probably the most fun he's had since... well, a good long while. He considers her question, before heaving out a sigh, standing. Zwei hops off and happily trots along.]
Yeah, he's not being trusted to do anything ever again. [You had ONE JOB, Ruddiger. ] So, I guess I'll accompany you. To make sure it's all done right and you don't stab me in the back.
no subject
The day isn't through yet.
[Just two dorks having a good time. It's a great day.]
It's so hard to find good help these days.
[She raises her hands in mock surrender. Definitely not doing any backstabbing here. That's not the heroic way after all.]
Smart move, Diabolical Mastermind. But don't you worry, I wouldn't dream of betraying you while you have your hostage. It would be foolish to try to something so rash and heroic.
no subject
I really need to fire him, but he'll just keep coming back anyway.
[He's joking, he'd never fire Ruddiger, he's the best trash panda. He lets out a smug little hum.]
It really would be deeply foolish. After all, I still clearly have the upper hand. You wouldn't want anything... unfortunate to happen to your precious pup after all.
[Unfortunate like an ear scritch!! ]
no subject
You've gotta admire that dedication at least.
[He's a good trash panda.
She just gives him a look filled with dread at that hum.]
Of course, perish the thought. I'd wouldn't know what to do if something happened to him!
[That is until Varian falls into step with her and she suddenly moves to try and get him in a headlock. He's going to get such a hair ruffling. All while she just cackles and laughs over how fun this whole set up was.]
no subject
[And also love. That too. Varian was not expecting the sneak attack and frankly Ruby is vasty a better combatant than his skinny short ass. He lets out a muffled "braglwa!" as suddenly he is noogied into defeat.
So cruel. To be defeated so young. So tragic.
Still, he does let out a proper laugh at this- probably more so than he has for a good long while, trying to fight her off with infective arm-flailing. ]
Okay, okay! Uncle uncle!! You win!
no subject
Ahaha, I did it~!
[She doesn't let it overstay it's welcome and eventually let's go and instead takes hold of him by the shoulders. He gets an excited shake.]
Oh my gosh, Varian! That was amazing, Those traps were so cool! You really outdid yourself on this!
no subject
A-thank-you. I do my best. How'd you find the spider? Were there any weak spots I should work on?
[He's stupidly proud of his creepy ass spider ok.]
You're basically the perfect test subject for this, 'cause you're one heck of a fighter! You're incredible! [Uh. His brain catches up with his mouth and he clears his throat awkwardly, rubbing the back of his neck.] A-at fighting. Incredible at fighting.
no subject
Why did you not mention you had a cool spider bot before? That thing was awesome! The only thing I can really say about that is if it's meant for ambushing you might want to lose the music box tune. It's creepy and cool but it kind of gives away it's location. If it were already set up and ready to ambush it might have got me then and there. The fact it had to move with the music playing didn't really help it.
What's your goal for the spider? We can probably brainstorm some ideas from there.
[It's okay. She loved the spider too. She wants it to succeed in it's next life.]
Perfect test subject? More like the best training field I could ask for. I haven't had a work out like that in awhile. I mean actual threats to my life aside. This was great!
[Watch as the point once again floats over her head as he fumbles with his words.]
Well, yeah? I'm a Huntress, what else would I be incredible at?
no subject
[Because he's weird. He's so weird.]
At the moment, it's just something that can move around where my other booby traps can't. Makes for a better means of protecting the place.
[He's so relieved, he's going to pretend that awkward moment never happened. There it goes, being swept under the rug.]
Well, I can do more of that at least! It's no Grimm attack, but at least I can help keeping you fighting fit for when the actual death-bringing monsters show up. [He lets out an awkward chuckle.] Y-yeah. That's fair. You're perfect for the job. Of fighting. Yup.
no subject
Well it's a cool gizmo. Not quite as advanced as what we have back where I'm from but I think with some fine tuning it could be more effective.
[Because Paladins are like the least effective robots ever.
YEAH MOVING ON. They have gizmos to talk about.]
There is a place for creepy music. So I'm not going to say get rid of it of it. But a walking booby trap is going to raise attention to itself if it's playing music. What you might need to do is pump some more music in through a few speakers set up. That might mess with your opponent and give the spider a chance to move a bit more freely.
[Congrats Varian. That's like being proud of waving a sign in front of a blind person and not getting caught.]
Hey. I appreciate it. Any training that isn't trial by fire is good in my books. We might need to find a bigger venue for next time.
I am kind of a pro at it.
no subject
[God, if he could bring even a fraction of the tech here in Deerington back home, he could do all sorts of things for the people. He could revolutionalise their lives. In a GOOD way.
Still, this is good, this is a good idea, he rubs his chin in thought.]
Yeah, yeah, I can work with that! It could really disorientate someone, they might not know where the sound is coming from and then suddenly- bam! Robot spider.
[Helping the morally questionable alchemist make his home dealy sure is a way to spend an afternoon, Ruby. And he'll take it, thank you.]
Yeaaaah, I don't think my house can stand another round. Maybe there's a deserted building outside of town we can use?
no subject
[She folds her arms and gives a smile. Glad he appreciates her idea.]
Creepy music and ambush spider all in one. Everyone wins. Except for the person who ends up goo'ed.
[Come on. He's a fun morally questionable alchemist. This will provide her with an even better challenge the next time she storms the fortress. Besides, She's stolen an military airship back in her own world. While she was doing it for the right reasons, it was still pretty darn illegal and dangerous.
Best birthday ever?]
I'll uh... Help you patch up some of the bullet holes I made.
And yeah, It wont last if we keep upping the ante. I'll see if I can find something. Having a bit more room to move around would be nice too.
no subject
[Varian thinks so far outside the box, the box tends to be in a while other Kingdom. ]
Well, that would be their fault for breaking into my home.
[Or. You know. Just visiting. But anyone who knows him understands the gauntlet they run in dropping in on him anyway.
This is definitely the best birthday ever. He grins a lopsided grin. ]
Aww, that's okay. They add to the aesthetic! [He sweeps a hand through the air dramatically. ] "Ruby Rose was here!".
Sure! Sounds like a plan.
no subject
[She returns that grin with one of her own.]
Well if you like them they can stay. I'll try not to add anymore though. There's a fine line between leaving my mark and turning your place into swiss cheese.
no subject
[After the whole burning alive incident he doesn't trust the Townspeople at all.]
Yeaaaaaaaah, I still want a home to come back to, so I think we've hit the maximum amount of bullet holes already.
no subject
[Yeah. The towns people are total jerks. Let's never get tossed in a burning building again.]
That's completely fair and reasonable. Who would have thought I'd use up my quota in one day?
no subject
[Also she Neo who's actively trying to kill her.]
I wouldn't! But I guess that's goes to show me for not having enough faith in your ability to shoot up my house.
