012 - Like Someone Knocking in the Walls

[And here he is, presumably having escaped the TARDIS somehow. x: He looks calm and healthy, aside from wearing the same clothes he's had on since the fight with Zeronos, being a bit ripe-smelling for lack of hygienic impetus, and noticeably thinner than he was at the start of this whole affair.

He also looks mildly confused.]




[Annnnd it's the peak of Firo's experiment, which means he won't remember himself at all during the following conversations--he'll skip from memory to memory, blending lives and situations in order to respond appropriately to whoever he's speaking to. There may be some flashes of himself that come through--there may also be memories of violent encounters, just a warning for if you tag.]

[ Finally, Mochi's locked in his little cage, and she's tacked up the sign that says "CAUTION: I BITE AND EAT CLOTHING." She breathes a sigh of relief... Until someone approaches. She winces as she hears his voice from behind her. Even if it doesn't sound that much like him, well, it doesn't take much guesswork to figure out what's going on. She stands up cautiously and looks at him, her face carefully blank.]

... Hi.

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

What I said... I didn't mean it. I wasn't... myself. I'm...

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

[ She looks away, silent. Sorry not!Firo, she's not ready to hear apologies. ]

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

Please! Please... I don't want you to leave with things like this.

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

[ She folds her arms. ] I'm not sure I can accept an apology. Not yet.

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

I was scared. I know it doesn't change anything. I just... I had to tell you.

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

Well. You certainly told me.

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

Th-that's not... what I meant...

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

[ She shrugs coldly and picks up her bag. ]

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

Wait, please wait! [He grabs her hand.]

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

[ She attempts to pull away, and the iciness of her voice falters a bit. She's shaking. ] Let go of me.

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

[And he's holding her hand gently in both of his, and going down on one knee.] Doll, I never... I would never... I'm sorry. I'm just... I'm sorry.

[ Angela will be taking her hand back now. ]

Stop. Just... stop.

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

[Owwy, wounded face.] But... please... I'm not trying to upset you, I'm really not.

[Guess who is hovering nearby just in case something happens]

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

Say my name. [ Angela clutches the hand he was holding with her other. ] I'll accept your apology if you can tell me my name, not the name of the woman in your head.

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

I... [And he grabs his head, not looking so much in pain as very dizzy and confused. He speaks like a song stuck on the chorus.] But... please... I'm not trying to upset you, I'm really not.

[The only reason he hasn't said anything is because Firo is trying to apologize. Even though he's not even sure Firo is the one actually talking.]

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

[ She reaches out a hand with a worried expression as he clutches his head. The repeated line leaves her very visibly disappointed, though. She lets her arm down and her shoulders sag. ] I have to go. I'll miss my ride.

[ A bold-faced lie for anyone who knows about the Plane's time mechanics, but Angela doubts the person currently running about Firo's head knows anything about that. ]

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

[Hazy, hurt, angry,] That's not true. That's not true, Angela.

[buckingbronco.livejournal.com]

[Edging a bit nearer so he can hear what's going on and trying to not be noticed]

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

[ Angela drops her bag and is immediately there, her hands on Firo's face. Her eyes search his. ] Firo? Are you there?

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

[His expression is distant and closed.] I'm always here.

[buckingbronco.livejournal.com]

[Brief surge of jealousy when he sees Angela that close to Firo before he tells himself to stop it. He's not to happy with the say you said that Firo.]

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

[ She lets her hands down. ] Why are you so mad at me?
