Zero Heart: The Sequel

[hunting]

[Ace is probably experiencing a very violent and jarring drop that will deposit him (none too gently) right in the center of that familiar river of blood. Which means that, yep, that nagging sensation at the back of Ace's throat is back.

[deadofknight]

[is like two seconds away from slashing Crown's throat at this point. IS THE BLOOD GOING IN THE VIAL???]

[hunting]

[Yes. Yes, it is.]

[deadofknight]

[is it doing anything to the key or its cord? :|b]

[hunting]

[Well, the key is brightening again?]

[deadofknight]

[what about Crown though? :|b how does he look?]

[hunting]

[Kind of unsteady on his feet and weaker...]

[deadofknight]

[ok good keep bleeding into the vial then]

[hunting]

[He might also be kind of... falling against Ace at this point...]

[deadofknight]

[props him up against a wall 8|]

[hunting]

[More blood flows. The cord holding the key is starting to shimmer a little and Crown looks half-passed out.]

[deadofknight]

[jamming his shoulder against Crown's to keep him upright, letting go of the key so he can keep Crown's hand positioned over the vial.

BLOOD MUST FLOW! >:U]

[hunting]

[Yep, totally passed out now. And the cord has completely vanished, which means that key is hitting the ground.

Oh, and Ace has probably made somewhat of a mess with that vial. Um, enjoy that with your bloodlust, buddy. It's probably crazily hard to resist.]

[deadofknight]

[carefully scooping up the key for safekeeping, before absently licking some of the excess off the back of his hand while he looks for a way to cap off the vial...]

[hunting]

[Doesn't really look like this room has any spares...

But at least, that bloodlust dipped a bit so that it's back to just really dizzying levels.

[deadofknight]

[licks some more off as he considers his options '-']

[hunting]

[Now back at basic REALLY WANTING levels.

5]

[deadofknight]

[acceptable. :|b

is there a spare vial cap anywhere else in the room? how are the vials that are already there sealed off?]

[hunting]

[They all have nice caps of their own. '-']

[deadofknight]

[patting down Crown's clothes in search of a cap, starting with wherever he pulled out the vial :U]

[hunting]

[Crown does not appear to have the cap on him. And is, in fact, appearing somewhat less tangible. :x]

[deadofknight]

[ok, well, leaving him to vanish then. pulling out the key, does the key hold any clues to capping the vial?]

[hunting]

[Well, it is the Control key so maybe?]

[deadofknight]

[taps the vial's top with the key]

[hunting]

[Huzzah, there is a top. Ace is a wizard! A blood-stained wizard.]

[deadofknight]

[\o/

ok now to tidy up all the vials and stick them back in the red cabinet.
