Prompts

July is going to be wet and wild, villagers. Keep an eye to the sky and hold onto your hats!

1. SAVING FACE - Look at you, trying to save that goat or dog or ZALPACA that's gotten stranded in a particularly nasty storm! You're a regular hero, trudging up that cliffside or swiming across that creek! Unfortunately, the sky didn't get the memo about your heroics, and it's just opened up even more. Finishing this job just got a heck of a lot worse. Good thing someone else just showed up to help both you and your animal pal. You hope. It's possible they're just there to laugh at you.


2. PANTS ON FIRE - You know what's great? When the storm breaks, the skies start to clear and everything looks sunny again. You know what's not? When the weather pushes the LYING MIST down from the mountainside while you're out trying to clean up. Hope you don't have any whoppers you're trying to keep secret!


3. SINK OR SWIM - The days when it's not storming are just beautiful, and the village river is running high. There are spots out of the current that are perfect for a cool dip or lounging on the shore, but take care you don't go out too far and get swept away. Oh, and watch out for the RAINBOW CRABS, those claws are sharp.


4. WILDCARD - Choose your own adventure. Maybe play powers roulette.

Vergil was still settling in but aiming to try and meet people and network. Survival and logic always came first and despite everything he had gone through before arriving here, it seemed he was now human and had little choice in what he could and could not do. He couldn't slip free of this world. All of his powers seemed to be gone. Like part of his soul was gone. Everything that made him special besides his brain.

His hand was still clutched to his chest with the phantom pains. The wound had healed before he even phased away from Dante and Kat but it ached whenever he thought of them. Of the betrayal, of everything, and the mist he had walked through had clearly done something. The platinum haired young man rested an arm against a tree, his hair was dirty and with the color it showed how dirty it was. He hated it so much.

"No, no I'm not okay. I'll never be okay so long as I am trapped here." Normally he'd lie and say he was fine and smile but something was wrong. He even blinked a bit through the ghostly pain at the fact he said it out loud. "Something is wrong...again."

Danny dropped the thick logs onto the ground with an audible thump. He was human but even as a human he was strong. He had trained and honed his body as a weapon to become worthy of carrying the title and power of the Ironfist. Even with that power stripped from him, he wasn't going to let that training mean nothing.

He placed a hand on Vergil's shoulder in an attempt to steady him. "Yeah. I feel it too. You hurt?" He looked at the mans chest, expecting to see a wound or something that might cause him pain except that he was fine. "Nothing looks wrong."

Danny looked up at the man with a quizzical uncertain stare.

[demonic_divinity]

Vergil should have been strong but, outside of his resistance fighting... he was kind of a computer nerd, he didn't work out, he didn't fight without using his ablities. So, he wasn't the strongest guy around. Seeing the blonde guy carrying the wood with ease did spark a bit of jealousy in him.

Vergil waved his other hand, refusing to move the other. "No, it's an old injury...it just hurts sometimes." He explained, it wasn't that old and he couldn't explain why it hurt. Maybe it was psychosomatic. "Nothing is wrong... nothing I know how to explain without hours of backstory that I don't wish to share." He didn't like being so open and yet it flowed free just speaking his heart.

"A little pain is fine. Just shows we are alive, right?" He could almost hear Dante's quip in his head, that was the last thing he wanted to hear.

[theimmortalweapon]

A light smile twitched at the corner of Danny's lips. "So I've been told." He'd been trained to withstand unimaginable tortures while in Kun-Lun and while it had helped him in the long run, he didn't know if it made him feel more or less alive, but that was a question for another day and another time. Right now, Danny wanted to focus on Vergil.

"Old or not. Something is wrong. Let's get you inside where you can sit for a bit." He'll come back for the wood.

"And you don't need to say more." Danny didn't know what was going on but something was causing Vergil to be uncomfortable and he had a few theories. They might not be right but they rattled around in his head as they attempted to form coherency.

[demonic_divinity]

Vergil nods be it a bit more meekly than he care to look. "It is what my brother often says." That and he likes it rough, but he didn't want to think of his brother in that moment. Dante hurt him, and he isn't ready to make nice with someone not there.

"Honestly, it will be fine. I find it comes and goes and other's need more attention than I do." He tried to sound elegant, before adding as he found it hard to lie. "It is probably just emotional... stress I mean." He should have paid more attention to human ailments after all. Was it guilty conscience?

He stopped fighting it after a moment, and let Danny help him, his hand remained pressed firm over where his heart was. "I never caught your name..."
