[There is a Brigitta on the Plane- except instead of juggling swords or stabbing annoying people who talk too much she is engaging herself in a quite different pastime. A very odd one indeed...

Okay, that's far too mysterious for this time of day! To put it simply: Brigitta is upside down. And why is she upside down? Well, because she is doing a handstand; because apparently handstands are good for fighting off demons.

...I don't know either.

After a few moments of shaky upside down balancing she blows some hair out of her face and frowns in a faintly grumpy way] This is a lot less fun than I imagined it. I'm going to smack Kirilli for this, the git.

[She still continues her handstand though. Apparently proving a point is a perfect excuse to continue being upside down, who knew?]

[Barbara watches, amused, before wheeling herself a bit closer] They do help build balance and upper body strength. I wouldn't call them fun, though.

[Brigitta, sensing a presence, pretty much tumbles out of her handstand... and eventually ends up kneeling in a rather awkward way] They aren't; who would want to spend all their time upside down anyway? It's bloody stupid to do that to your head.

[bodilesswarrior.livejournal.com]

[suppresses an amused smile and leans forward, offering a hand] You get used to the blood rush.

[oldoldghost.livejournal.com]

[Sways in a rather undignified sort of way... And then, after two attempts to get up herself considering that she's a fail!Brigitta, she finally takes the hand. And manages to rise!] Mmm, I think I'm starting to- he made me do it a few times.

fff I am sorry stupid lj

[waits patiently, the smile finally defeating her; her grip is strong, and she pulls up Brigitta smoothly and quickly] You might want to practice against a wall first.

[as pointlessly trolly as ever] Well, would you look at that! Another talent you don't have.

[oldoldghost.livejournal.com]

[Oh Master- it's totally his superpower]

[She gives him a annoyed glare from upside down] Hey! You try it then, see how far you get.

I bet you can't do it.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

I can reverse gravity and rewind time. Why would I want to walk around like an directionally-challenged orangutan?

[oldoldghost.livejournal.com]

[Totally pouting] ...It strengthens your upper body.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Lucky me that I fence and have a laser screwdriver.

[oldoldghost.livejournal.com]

[...Damn, that makes sense. And Brigitta shall be looking rather irritated at the sensible person]

Well, you... You aren't that good at fencing anyway.

[Yep, she's lying~]

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Now, Brigitta! You shouldn't put down your own skills like that.

[oldoldghost.livejournal.com]

[Yep, her mouth has dropped open... Upside down, somehow]

...I'm far better than you!

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Oh look! You're smiling! [:D UPSIDE DOWN FROWN! IT'S FUNNY, ISN'T IT? THE MASTER SAYS SO!]

[oldoldghost.livejournal.com]

[OH MASTER YOU LOVABLE PERSON WHO NOW OWES ONE NEW DESK! However, Brigitta is a prude and so shall be trying to kick him in the head, badly. Which leads to her almost falling over. GO BRIGITTA AND HER MAD SKILLS!]

...I hate you.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

[easily getting out of range] Well played, princess.

[oldoldghost.livejournal.com]

[With just a hint of sulkiness] If you hadn't moved... And I'm not a princess.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

You're just a demon hunter doing handstands.

[oldoldghost.livejournal.com]

Exactly!

[Pause; she thinks that over and frowns slightly] ...I don't really want to be a princess.

Jim attempts to twist her head around to be... closer to in line with Brigitta's face.]

Hello.

[oldoldghost.livejournal.com]

[Brigitta blows more hair out of her face (seriously, so much bloody hair) and attempts a smile- which comes out as more of a wince]

Hey.

[Pause]

...That must really hurt your neck, you know.

[kirk-it.livejournal.com]

A little bit.

[She's okay with it, though. Or something.]

What are the gymnastics for?

[oldoldghost.livejournal.com]

[Another hair blow- bloody hair!]

...Well, apparently they're quite good for balance and things. And I thought I'd learn different fighting styles- for research.

[kirk-it.livejournal.com]

And some of them are upside-down?

[oldoldghost.livejournal.com]

I suppose so! This must be very useful for...

{...]

[...Yeah, she has nothing. So she'll just be giving a bright smile to cover the nothing!]

...For kicking things.

[kirk-it.livejournal.com]

[...Doubtful look.

But, okay. To even the playing field, Jim manages a wobbly handstand.]

It seems like it'd set the balance off.

[oldoldghost.livejournal.com]

[Brigitta looks rather pleased: Soon all shall be following her example! mwhahahahahaha]

...Well, if it was a good enough kick it probably wouldn't matter that much.

[kirk-it.livejournal.com]

Maybe.

[Attempts to kick.

...Falls over and laughs, ruefully.]

I think I'd need practice.

[oldoldghost.livejournal.com]

[Brigitta shall be giving her a quite amused glance, upside down because obviously it's best to completely scramble your head] Well, most of the time you'd be standing up!

...That's a lot more sensible really.
