Godisnowhere

[It started slowly. Faintly. Even almost as a joke... or 602 thought it's a joke.

It apparently wasn't, and he has to realize that when he witnesses the letters born in front of his eyes '
G O D I S N O W H E R E' . The wall of his room's slowly covered by the phrase.

"
God Is Now Here" or is it "God Is Nowhere" he can read both everywhere, and he's not sure which one he finds more terrifying.

Terrifying. Yes that's the word. 602 is scared, and it gets worse as he looks around and his room is decorated with dark red letters, repeating the same even darker sentences. 602 tries to keep the unholy scream inside as he hurries to the door to get away, but as he stumbles out the corridor it's covered too. Everything is written on, every surface...

602 lets out a hysteric laugh, but it frees the screaming too. It's not just a simple scream. It's a cry of something ancient in madness, shaking the cheesy pictures of landscapes on the walls, the loose doorknobs, the door frames...

Before he himself knows he's already dashing down the stairs and outside to where there are no walls.]




((OOC: The sentences are visible to others too, but only appear around Gabriel. They could be read either as "God is now here", or "God is nowhere". ))

[ Gradually, 208 finds that her unease over plastic snakes is nothing compared to what she can hear and see over what's going on in the bath house...

First she sees the faint sentences "godisnowhere" appear on her walls, followed by the shaking of the décor and the sliding doors and windows, until she realizes, with an deathly chill down her spine, that the clamor comes with an unholy sound. The footsteps dashing down and out startles her, but her senses told her go check -- if something is terrifying this person, then she must deal with whatever it is and help them...

She waits until the the sound dashes past her door before she slides out, chain scythe in hand, ready to attack or defend herself if need be--

But nothing, no one came. She saw nothing but that phrase repeating itself over and over again on the walls. Chain scythe disappearing and turning back into her hair, 208 then decides to follow the dashing footsteps, foregoing the steps and leaping over the banisters where she can. She calls out -- ]


Wait! Wait, hold it!

(( OOC: Soul Eater has a lot of cool official art and I love them to bits ♥ /pets the rambles~ ))


[ 808 keeps her distance when she halts -- a good three, four paces away. Is he talking about the writings on the wall? Or the tremors in the building? ]
Behind what-- ?!

[ Despite being startled by the demand, 808 stands her ground and brings her arms up in a defensive stance out of reflex, as if expecting a shockwave that doesn't come. But she realizes that the ground-shaking is being done by this man. Bringing her arms down again -- ] I thought you were in danger I want to help!

I don't know! I'm sorry! [ At that, 208 takes to bowing low from the waist. ] I really don't know. Please-- I'm just as lost as you are.

[ And looking up just a tad -- ] What was it that scared you like that?

[personal profile] blackstarsenal 2012-10-30 05:03 pm (UTC)(link)
I-I'm sorry-- [ And finally, she gets back up. ]

[ A tad hesitant, though she takes a step forward towards the troubled man -- ] I saw them too, in the building. I-I've found them troubling too it's just-- I don't understand what they truly mean...

But why do they trouble you so much?

[ The sarcasm rolls off of 208's back; she does her best to at least understand how the man feels. The words indeed are troubling -- what's happening to everyone is troubling; but she doesn't feel fear, oddly so... ]

That "god is now here" or "god is nowhere" --

I think though -- it's normal to be afraid. It's okay to be afraid when you're faced with something so powerful.

[ Another shake of her head. ] Not really. I-- I don't think it's of God-- a god that I should be afraid of. The one I know is kind, though only feared by those who have hurt other people.

Right now though-- I'm-- I'm afraid of whatever it is that is making people so scared.
