Event Eighteen.





Who told you so, dilly dilly,
Who told you so?
‘Twas my own heart, dilly dilly,
That told me so.





ouch is one of the most intimate, romantic ways to be close to someone else. The Town knows this very well -- the Town wants everyone to be as close as possible.

Perhaps that's why this bonding is so...aggressive.

Because you're in for quite the shock on this otherwise peaceful day when you brush against the next person on your path.

Maybe you're going out of your way to touch people. Maybe you've got a terrible urge to just see what's lurking in someone's heart. Maybe you trip over a conveniently placed rock -- whatever the cause, you're getting an up close and personal look into someone else's heart.




Welcome to Awash's eighteenth event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. You are welcome to make your own logs and posts for this event!

[ She sure is...positive, in a way. She's confident in her every movement when faced with opponents like these. With someone at her side, cheering her on. A beautiful maiden, no less. She can't falter now, can she?

Though the army of bunnies may be drawing back, she intends to finish what she (and Maya) started, and so she swings her crimson blade in the crowd with passion, watching the stuffing scatter as she does. ]

... Having fun?

[ Maya doesn't even have much to do here, because Nero is definitely going on a bunny-murdering rampage and they're not even trying to fight back now, because she sure is happy! ]

[ She's a playable character in a musou spinoff series, Maya will be fine. Nero smiles confidently. ]

Hm, "fun" is not quite what I would call this. [ She does not particularly battle for amusement, for the most part. ] But yes, I am enjoying myself. A straightforward clash of blades can be invigorating.
scooptimistic: (I think we're due for some girl talk!)

You do have "straightforward" written all over you... I should learn from your example!

[ As though Maya herself isn't brightly honest-- but she does think Nero probably doesn't shove things down all that much, if at all. As for the Bunbun army... those that remain have been quickly shredded and destroyed by Nero's onslaught, and any stuffed animal valuing its life has since fled. ]

Anyway, we should probably move on... the sooner you can get out of here and go about your day, the better.

Yes.

[ She is indeed, quite a busy emperor! (No she's not.) She walks on, her golden heels clacking on the shrine's wooden flooring. ]

It was quite impudent of that stuffed animal to demand I smile or laugh so.

[ The only people who are allowed to do that are her own Roman people! And even then! ]
scooptimistic: (I am 14% uncomfortable)

My dad was the one who told me that, actually. To get me to not cry when he left.

[ Thanks, dad. Now look at what the bunny has become, in Maya's heart. ]

[ Nero frowns, just a little, her mouth curved slightly downwards as she chews on those words. ]

I imagine his words were well-intentioned, but...hm.

[ She understands that people who aren't emperors like her need time to grieve, whether it's the death of a loved one or taking the life of another. ]
scooptimistic: (OOC is serious business)

It's true-- I know he wasn't trying to bind me with them, or anything. He was just trying to say goodbye on a lighter note.

... I guess you can say it sort of stuck with me, though.

[ Never stop smiling. Be positive. ]

[ Intention does not always translate accurately. ]

A laudable sentiment, but when it comes to the point that one fears not adhering to it, it becomes not a mere sentiment but a cage. Allowing yourself to lament is part of being human.

[ She always pushes onward, yes, but at least she allows herself to feel the full spectrum of emotion before doing so. Too much emotion, some would say. Anger at having her performances being walked out on, happiness at constructing her Golden Theater, and finally despair to the point of taking her own life, at having been declared a traitor by the Senate.

It's been a while since she herself has actually been human, though. ]
