[Flynn isn't sure why its a captain's job to come and wake up some strange man who's been sleeping on the coliseum steps... all day. But duty is duty (somewhere, Yuri Lowell laughs,) and here he is.]
The coliseum is closed, you'll have to find somewhere else to nap.
Stahn isn't quite sure but what he is sure of is that he's sleeping. That's great, couldn't be better! So sorry, other blonde but not quite as blonde guy. You are being ignored for now over the wonderful promise of undisturbed slumber.]
[ZZZZZZ.]
Edited (forgot icon, first post, class) 2014-03-08 09:55 (UTC)
R-Ruteee.... just five more minutes.. [He rolls in the opposite direction of Flynn, no frying pans or loud crashes of dishes in his ear drums yet. The coast is clear! Perhaps he may still get that five more, and hopeful many more minutes to needed slumber. After all, the best sleep is that of which wakens you at the smell of lunch and sometimes dinner but mostly lunch.
You know, Stahn.. Sleeping on the floor will give you a cold -- It's a proven Japanese fact.]
[Flynn looks daunted, frowning and crossing his arms... and giving the sleeping man his requested five more minutes. He stands around tapping his foot and looking sheepish. He's glad there's no one else around.]
[Finally, when the five minutes have passed, he uncrosses his arms and lays a hand on Stahn's shoulder.]
No, this wasn't Rutee, this was far worse. The person waking him clearly meant harm, they where about to whack him! Lilith!!] I'M AWAKE!
[His arms fry around Flynn's waste, please sister.. have mercy! Stahn himself is already crying, overrating and not taking the time to see that this man was in fact, not his sister... but you know. He'll realize that eventually.] Lilllyy, I'm sorrrrry!
[...........hum? Wait a second, this stomach is far to buff to be Lilith. Nah, his sister is soft and smooth with a rock hard fist, not abs (that would be strange, now wouldn't it?)] Huh? You're not Lily, or Rutee..? [He looks up, arms still around Flynn.]
[He blinked, startled when Stahn grabbed him but... it slowly faded as he realized the other was still half asleep. He coughed awkwardly, looking down at him.]
My name is Flynn Scifo. I'm a captain of the Imperial Knights.
[He's just going to blink at you, Scifo... Blink, yeah.. and then let go slowly, sitting on his ass, still looking up. Who told this guy he was allowed to grow so tall, huh?
The younger, shorter, bouffant-haired teen was going to be a handful, surely. If he wasn't already..] Knights..?
Oh, hey, I wanna be a knight! Come on, let me show you my skills!! [They seem to be in a fighting area.. somehow? And just how did Stahn end up here?? He's still sitting but now talking with his hands, rather... violently..]
[A long, drawn out gasp--!] You're the commandant?!
WHOW! No way?! ..... Huh? Why couldn't you just give it to me? Dymlos and I totally qualify! [Dymlos? Who's Dymlos? No one else seems to be around, in fact it's just seems to be Stahn and Flynn.]
Ohh! That's right, didn't introduce you yet! [He pulls out his sword, swinging it right at Flynn -- Christ. Anyone could feel intimidated over how loosly Stahn seemed to whale his obviously sharp long sword around. Despite how polished the blade seemed the hilt was worn.] Say hello.
[Something sounds as if it's clearing their throat, a masculine sounding one at that..]
'Ahem-- Good day, human. My name is Dymlos, the swordian.'
[His sword... is talking, it's no mistake the voice is coming from the blade.]
Yep! He's-- [Stahn has his fingers up ready to explain in the typical anime fassion but he's cut off, how rude for such a proper sword.]
'That is correct, human. I shall tell you once more, I am Dymlos -- full name Lieutenant General Dymlos Timber, division commander of the 1st Er'ther Army.'
.... And I'm Stahn Aileron! [Finally speaking up for himself over his prideful swordian.] Say, where is this? Now that I think about it I don't remember the Coliseum looking like this. This is way to open to be Neustadt.. I'd know, I've been there, you know?
Nordopolica? I've never even heard of this place. [Stahn doesn't mention where Neustadt is and Dymolos is suddenly quiet, the swordian is pondering as to why this young soldier doesn't know of his own country.
Where in the entire Global Sphere could they be?] Hey, if this place is a coliseum why isn't anyone here? Are you my challenger or something? Give me a second, would ya, and we can totally duke it out.
[Well, now that you mention is he does recall something along the lines of 'Sir, the coliseum is closed' but also 'who's Dymlos' which sparked a much more important conversation.] Oh yeah... Is there a port near by? I'll just try and catch a ship to Cherik maybe..
.... [--but the port is mostly not open till daybreak as well, so why don't you just find yourself out, Mr. Knight. Stahn will, in a totally non-suspicious way, just continue to stand there scratching the back of his head -- watching you.]
Ah... Right, right. [Totally going to go do that... once you leave. So he can kinda just not do that. Come on, guy, Stahn is a little broke at the moment...]
[He kind of... awkwardly stands there while Stahn tries to be smooth about staying there. With a sigh, he finally lets his shoulders go slack and he shakes his head a little.]
... [Hey, Stahn's kinda a hobo sometimes but he's not about to let you pay his way, Mr. Knight Guy.] No, but I don't except money from strangers that I didn't earn.
[Sorry, Rutee.. money should be earned! Stahn wont take any handouts, if you can sneak onto the boat unnoticed you've earned yourself a free trip. Otherwise you wont find Stahn begging for money.. He's perfectly capable of ah-- well, sorta taking care of himself.] So thanks but no thanks.
[Humm, one of those protagonists maybe.] Huh? Really?! [Now that's more like it, smile peals over his face.] Well, dang, I'll hit you up on that one! Come on, let's go.
HAA! Ready Dymlos? [Pointing his broadsword at Flynn once they where in the area. Have you forgotten about the talking sword yet?]
'Have at thee, human. May the best man win..'
[.....
Odd, he's just standing there. Is the sword.. glowing? It seems to be getting brighter.]
[LUCKILY FOR YOU STAHN IS.... the guy with the broadsword. That shoots fireballs.... and talks.]
AHAHA, alright! [The spell is canceled so that they could block. That's a pretty cool move you have there buddy, Stahn knows it too! Must be a tales guy thing.. main character stuff-- Oh wait.]
[Oh, that's it... This is the second time she's found him asleep during chores today! Lilith's method works... but Rutee's getting seriously mad about this Stahn. She stands in front of him a moment with her hands on her hips, waiting to see if he miraculously wakes up on his own... but nothing. Of course.]
[She doesn't even bother with the frying pan this time. Rutee goes right up to him and...]
Chop! Stahn, wake up already!
[She brings the side of her hand down on the top of his head, knowing his ridiculous amount of hair will block most of it anyway.]
If she had just been a little softer with him he might have gotten a few more winks of sleep..] HEY, THAT HURTS! [Looking up to be face to face with his wife, o-oh.. yeah, he was supposed to be doing something but.. he kinda feel asleep.. again. Ahaha..] A-Ah.. Rutee.. What's up, um..
What do you think? [He gestures to the dirty floors of the orphanage.. It's not like he wasn't going to sweep them but he had finally gotten a day off from mercenary work. That was a stupid thing to point to, better try and save this..] Ahaha.. not that clean, are they? But they will be once I get to em! Oh yeah!
[She pulls her hand back and leans to give him a kiss on top of his head before he stands up and she can't reach. Stupid man. She pats him free of dust too. When did she become so... motherly over this dumb bumpkin?]
You were supposed to be cleaning it already, Stahn...
[Rutee handed him the push broom that was still sitting neatly in its place by the wall.]
Didn't you say you'd do it earlier so we could spend the afternoon together?
[Not that they got much peace with the orphans to take care of... but when Stahn was home Rutee wanted him around, she didn't want to yell at him...]
[He's so easily swayed by her love -- ahh~! It's strange to think he feel for Rutee of all people but she's perfect. They never saw the connection, it just happened.. and in the middle of all the yelling and demands the two of them simply feel in love. They might not always agree but it's that differance the builds their strong bond even tighter..]
Of course I did and I mean it! [--!!! She's right! He did say that, and nothing in the whole wide world is more important to him at this point then spending time with his wife! He hops to his feet.] Your mind is going to be blown with how quickly I clean this floor, Rutee! Watch!
--And then, ahhh, and then we'll go on a date! [With what money? He's not sure, but today was a rare free day.. they should make time for each other. Maybe Mary could watch the kids while they where out for no longer then a few hours..
To bad the swordian's couldn't.. Stahn has a feeling the two of them would have made good parents. Dymlos especially for dad stuff, he's super wise. A little rough around the edges (or not..) but someone that truly cares about people.. Sadly, they are both swords. He's not even sure any of the kids could hear them either but you never know who's going to hear the voice, right?]
[Rutee stands back, in the doorway while he cleans, smiling to herself. He's so cute... When he gets charged up, he's really charged up! It made her feel excited too, ready for anything! That was why Stahn was the leader, after all. Well, he had been the leader, during the journey. They both know who runs this house.]
Make it shine! I don't want the kids getting sick, imagine the bill!
[At the mention of a date, she just grins a little. That's just like him...]
We can take our dinner up on the hill... That'd be really nice.
[He looks up at the sound of dinner, zipping that mop around like it was toy, smile plastered on his cheeks.] That sounds perfect! What should we have? [Cleaning? It's not that tough, Stahn's been though so much tougher. In fact, you can almost make some fun out of cleaning if you challenge yourself.]
Mary made a roast, we'll just grab two plates and sneak out!
[She claps when he's all finished, her eyes sparkling a little just like the wood in the floor. He worked so hard... and all for free! She leaned up on her toes to kiss him when he was done, giving him his "reward".]
[KISSES ARE THE BEST REWARD, no husband could ask for more really. He rubs the back of his head, blush over his cheeks.] Yeah, lets ditch 'em quick! [Heck those orphans right off, they wont be able to catch up if they get a head start! They'll have to wait a whole couple hours before either of them return.
Take the lead, Rutee! Stahn will follow this time.. Just like when they first started traveling together. One leads the other follows and it always feels just right..]
[She rubs his head where she smacked him, before taking his hand and leaving the side hall to the kitchen. Mary gives them a wink and dishes out their plates for them. She'll keep an eye on the kids! Linking arms with Stahn, she leans against her husband and they hurry outside, further away from the house and... ahh, much better. Rutee finds a good spot in the grass up on the hill over looking Cresta and smiles.]
This is a way better place for a nap, huh?
Not that you're allowed to fall asleep on me again.
Totally-... I mean! I'm not going to fall asleep, I promise! We're on a date, no sleeping allowed. [He waves his hands back and forth to express himself, nope, no way.. Already feeling sweaty from the housework perhaps he was feeling a little nervous.
That's silly to think, huh? Still getting nervous on a date with your wife. Well, Stahn loves Rutee more then you can imagine, she deserved perfection but that's not something Stahn can give. Her standards lowered just for him so it's only fair to give her his very best, beyond the call of duty as they say.] Hey, Rutee?
[She smiles at him, sitting with her food and starting into it. Mmm, Mary's cooking is the best!]
I'll trust you this time, but if you end up sleeping I'll leave you out here in the cold!
[Rutee hums a little, listening to him go on. It was so nice being out with him like this. When he calls her name, she looks back over to him, seeing his big goofy smile.......]
There he was, the sleeping idiot. Why was it Leon's turn to wake him? Why was it ever his turn to wake the stupid bumpkin? Mary or Rutee seemed just fine doing it any other day but both of them had left him and Stahn behind while they ran to... obtain produce or some such thing, for breakfast. He supposed Mary being able to cook from scratch was helpful but they could have easily gone to the store after waking Stahn and had an extra set of arms.
Leon chooses to forget that they offered to let him come with them to help carry things home, but he'd spurned them for expecting him to do something befitting servitude. It wasn't as if Mary ever made anything sweet, so the food making process wasn't any of his concern. What was, however, was snoring away in the corner and leaving him unable to read important mail that had been delivered to the inn they were staying at that morning. He... supposed that he didn't have to wake Stahn up, but the blasted snoring made him cringe.
"Wake up."
He's... just kind of standing over the blond now, his hands fisted at his sides. He's lacking his jacket and his cape in the early morning, with only his tunic and leggings on at the moment, but he assumes he's sufficiently intimidating. He always woke to the beck and call of his superiors, after all. He didn't see a reason as to why Stahn wouldn't be the same.
It's time for the beast to awaken from his slumber, this creature though unmoving is also loud to warn his prey of his presence. We're sorry, Leon... it seems you have been picked to be the Stahn waker-uper today-- that's quite the task. He's rather dead.
He doesn't mean to ruin your day, Stahn really likes this kid. He's sour as all Hell but you know-- deep inside? He's kinda sweet, you just gotta pat his ass sometimes... Only when he's right, mind you. Too much pampering can rot someone from the inside-out and something tells Stahn, Leon might already be a little rotten. Nothing wrong with being rotten or anything... just makes you a little stuck-up. With the right friend (yours truly) maybe he'll freshen up a bit, show off that charming knight spirit!
Leon groaned, his teeth grit as he watched the blond sleep. Had his snoring gotten louder? Was it some kind of defense mechanism?! He wondered how Rutee (and, by accessory, Lilith) could manage to deal with him. Leon breathed out through his nose irritably and tried to think. It had been a long, long time since Leon had been child enough to get away with this sort of behavior. Even at sixteen, Leon is unsure if he ever slept in when he was-- ah, no. He had one memory he could draw off of, of him sleeping in after a long night and Marian being unable to wake him up.
What had she done, to finally get him out of bed? Mm. Leon sighed out, steeling himself and... reached to pull all of the worn soft bed sheets off of Stahn's sleeping form. Now, the blond had a habit of sleeping anywhere, but perhaps the suddenly temperature difference would help.
Fool, do you honestly think that's enough? You clearly haven't experienced anything quite like this before. "MMm... Just five more minutes, Lili-..." a yawn, hugging his pillow closely. Stahn curled his legs, wrapping his body around himself shaping into a ball. Whatever temperature change that might have affected him would soon be modified.
You were nothing, prepare for the knockout! To even consider yourself worthy of waking the unmovable beast, Stahn Aileron!
Honestly, Stahn will feel kinda bad once he's woken. Leon isn't used to his horrible sleeping patterns. It's always kinda sad subjecting someone new to them. Dymlos could relate, now that was a disappointment... Wonderful first impression are when you're woken in the middle of the night by the sound of your host's horrid snoring and once morning comes and unmoving body. This boy was apparently worthy of a Swordian?
Leon let out a soft, irritated noise as he wondered what to do. He had no idea how they woke Stahn up normally... he was usually awake and out of the inn long before any of the others. The one chance he gets to sleep a bit longer and he gets accosted by this hayseed's sleeping habits. How typical. For once though, Leon's at a loss for what to do. He looks back over at Chaltier still on his bed for a moment before shaking his head and... bringing his hand down on the side of Stahn's head, whacking him hard.
"I said wake up!"
He was... mocking him. Ignoring him. Hmph! Leon will hit him again if this continues.
"Owee ow-!" this pain... Stahn quickly bolts up, hands going to cover his skull in case of anymore cracks. What has he done to deserve this? Who would be this cruel? Tears lace the sides of his lids... "L-.. Leon?"
Yeah, that wasn't Lilith... JEEZ, hands rubbed against the damaged surface. "W-wha.. What time is it?" he holds off the pending yawn, moments of weakness are saved for when you're actually safe.
Leon crosses his arms, after dusting his hands off like Stahn had dirtied him. It's probably lost on someone just waking up, but Leon doesn't care. He just lets out a huff of breath.
"It's nearly ten. Those women have gone out already."
He turns on his heel and begins putting on his jacket, gathering up his letters to tuck into his pocket before sitting to pull on his boots. Stahn is awake, that was his duty, he doesn't care what happens to him now. He could go back to bed for all he cares. Leon straps Chaltier to his belt.
"... They said there would be breakfast soon. Don't miss it."

Honestly, Stahn will feel kinda bad once he's woken. Leon isn't used to his horrible sleeping patterns. It's always kinda sad subjecting someone new to them. Dymlos could relate, now that was a disappointment... Wonderful first impression are when you're woken in the middle of the night by the sound of your host's horrid snoring and once morning comes and unmoving body. This boy was apparently worthy of a Swordian?

"It's nearly ten. Those women have gone out already."
He turns on his heel and begins putting on his jacket, gathering up his letters to tuck into his pocket before sitting to pull on his boots. Stahn is awake, that was his duty, he doesn't care what happens to him now. He could go back to bed for all he cares. Leon straps Chaltier to his belt.
"... They said there would be breakfast soon. Don't miss it."
Pulling on his cape, Leon left the room.
