Second Fall - [Action] - Event

[The moon was the first thing to grab his attention when Naoi stepped outside this morning but then a hat caught his eye.

It's not something he'd usually want to wear, especially since he likes the hat the he has but...it's so tempting to wear.  Just it's very being is saying 'put me on!', as silly as it sounds.  So after putting his normal hat back in the apartment, he makes his way out of the building while putting this new one on.  He walks down the steps as he secures the hat on his head when suddenly, he just falls.  Like the ground and everything was taken out from under his feet.  Landing on the ground, it takes him a second to realize...

....He shrunk.  The steps behind him loom over him and the grass becomes like a jungle.  And to make this even better, as he looks around, a raindrop smacks down right on his head and he falls face first into the dirt.  This is going to be a problem.

So just outside of community building five (because it's not like he can go too far in his state), Naoi will be running around frantically, doing his best to avoid every little menacing drop of water that falls from the sky.  He's already been hit a couple times which is obvious since he's soaking wet right now.  He has tried getting back up the stairs but well...the steps are kinda tall and he's...extremely short at the moment.

Anyone care to help a miniature size god before he drowns or gets stepped on?]

[Mia's been small before. It's harrowing, sometimes! She hasn't put on a mask yet, preferring to wonder at the state of things. This is the reason she's looking down - and the reason she sees Naoi.]

Oh my. [and she will just bend down, holding out her umbrella, and offer him a hand]

[OH COVERAGE. He runs as quickly as he can under the umbrella and grabs Mia's hand--well her finger--to stable himself as he takes deep breaths. He's been running around for a while so you could say he's a little worn out]

Thank you... [Yes, he just said thank you, something he never really does. But hell, he's grateful]

Of course. Are you all right?

[Very careful not to move her finger. She doesn't want to knock him over.]

[ACTION]

[identity profile] nothisbrother.livejournal.com 2011-10-24 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I've been better.

[Said a little sourly. After just a minute of catching his breath, he lets go of her finger and takes off his jacket to ring it out as he starts to shiver. It's best not to let it stay wet, right?]
frost_jewel: (...that's...well...)

[ACTION]

[personal profile] frost_jewel 2011-10-24 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, I imagine you have.

[she pulls a dry, clean handkerchief out of her bag and hands it to him to warm up with.]

I can take you inside.

[ACTION]

[identity profile] nothisbrother.livejournal.com 2011-10-24 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[Jeez the handkerchief is like a blanket to him right now. He takes it nonetheless and wraps it around his shoulders, holding it closed as best as he can so the chilly air can't get through. This girl definitely deserves God's praise]

Please.
frost_jewel: (gentle)

Just climb on, then. I promise not to drop you. Is this your building?

[YOU BETTER NOT DROP HIM. Or God will smite thee.

Nodding as he climbs on to her hand, sitting in the palm of it]
Yes. I live on the sixth floor.

I'd rather be up there than out here in the rain.

[ Through some happy chance, Firo hasn't yet put his mask on when his meandering path takes him by the newly bite-size Naoi.

He blinks a few times, hardly believing his eyes. When he verifies that it is indeed Naoi scampering around he kneels down, smirking slightly. ]

Well, look who it is.

[Action]

[identity profile] nothisbrother.livejournal.com 2011-10-25 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
[Unfortunately Naoi's too concerned about avoiding the raindrops to notice Firo walking over but when he speaks he turns around and just glares]

What do you want? [And then a drop of water smacks him on the head. Owy :c]
immamartillo: (Blahblah)

[personal profile] immamartillo 2011-10-25 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, nothin'. Just enjoyin' the rain.

[ His hand slips into his pants pocket and then comes out, held in a closed fist about a foot above bitty Naoi's head.

See that, Naoi? That is a big bad and perhaps familiar paperclip being dropped in your direction. Better hustle or you might get doinked. ]

[Action] 1/2

[Just going to stare up at that fist. What's he doing...]

[Action] BAM

[identity profile] nothisbrother.livejournal.com 2011-10-25 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
[ ...OH GOD NO. At this size that is like life threatening. Why is karma such a bitch? He backs up a little but holds his glare.

God can't be scared. Right. Stay tough.]


You wouldn't dare.
immamartillo: (Anger)

[Action] *applause*

[personal profile] immamartillo 2011-10-25 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
Wouldn't dare do what? Take revenge on some punk?

[ If Firo wasn't so annoyed, he'd be impressed with Naoi's bravery. He slowly begins to open his hand, barely catching the paperclip between two of his fingers. ]

Actually, pal, I think I can and I would.

[Action]

[identity profile] nothisbrother.livejournal.com 2011-10-25 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
[wiorgha Okay so he does tense up a bit when Firo opens his hand, wanting to sigh in relief that he catches it in his fingers but resist since that would show he was scared. HE'S TOTALLY NOT SCARED.

The anticipation is killing him, eyes moving from the paper clip up to the giant Firo. Is he bluffing? Maybe he can call him on it...]
Then drop it.
immamartillo: (Blahblah)

[Action]

[personal profile] immamartillo 2011-10-25 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
If you insist.

[ And so it drops. Sadly for Firo, at this height Naoi can probably escape the paperclip with ease. ]

[HE REALLY DROPPED IT FFF. Well good thing Naoi was ready for it because the moment he lets go, he scurries back to move out the way.]

H-How dare you!!

[ Firo tries to hide his disappointment at not hitting Naoi. He'll just have to cook up something else. In the meantime he shrugs, still smiling. ]

You asked for it, didn't you?

[ He idly reaches out with one finger to try and prod Naoi square in the chest. ]

A real God woulda' been able to stop me before I dropped. How come you didn't if it was gonna bother you so much?

[Action]

[identity profile] nothisbrother.livejournal.com 2011-10-27 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
[Oof. Just that little prod to his chest knocks him back on his butt and in the mud. Jerk!]

Because I was testing you! [On what exactly? He has no idea]
immamartillo: (Blahblah)

[Action]

[personal profile] immamartillo 2011-10-27 09:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Firo indulges his inner bully and goes to lightly bop Naoi on the head with one finger. ]

But if you're God, then you'd be omniscient and have no reason to test me in a way that could harm yourself, would ya?

[ Firo's familiar enough with religion to know God tested people all the time, but he'll just leave that fact conveniently unacknowledged. ]

[Action]

[identity profile] nothisbrother.livejournal.com 2011-10-29 06:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[He grabs Firo's finger before it hits his head and squeezes it as hard as he can...which probably isn't all that hard considering he's three inches tall. Don't you dare touch God! That's the worst thing you could ever do--LIKE A SIN.]

Of course I would! I must constantly test the loyalty of my people.
immamartillo: (Anger)

[Action]

[personal profile] immamartillo 2011-10-29 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Firo laughs and tries to raise his finger to see if he can lift Naoi off the ground while he's holding on. ]

So I should be flattered, then? Here I woulda' thought you'd given up on me ages ago.

[ There's an extra helping of bitterness in his voice now as he begins to lump his annoyance with religion with his annoyance with Naoi. ]

[Action]

[identity profile] nothisbrother.livejournal.com 2011-11-02 05:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[oergoherg Don't do that! Naoi almost automatically lets go after being raised off the ground just a few inches, flopping on his back down into the mud below.

Gross. Firo you better help him get back up to his apartment! Another raindrop falls on his head and he rubs his eyes to get the water out of his eyes. Okay now he may look a little pathetic, mud all over his face from his sleeves wiping against it and shivering but he holds his glare]


You may change your mind some day.
immamartillo: (Blahblah)

[Action]

[personal profile] immamartillo 2011-11-03 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah? And why's that?

[ For the moment he's just letting the rain and the mud work their magic on Naoi. Revenge isn't as satisfying when he's tiny and (almost) defenseless like this; it even feels almost mean. And Firo wants to hear what kind of answer Naoi can concoct to his question. ]
