issue # 3 | video + action

[survivorsguilt]

[It's pretty early in the day when Ellie sends out a network wide cry for help.]

I'm bored as hell. Need something fun to do around here. First person to give me a great idea wins my undying gratitude and an IOU.

[That's it. She's out. Quite literally; the moment the video ends, Ellie is slinging her backpack over her shoulders and heading off on a walk, just to be doing something.

Boredom isn't the crux of the issue, in actuality. If she wasn't so intent on stubbornly clinging to her pride in front of a bunch of strangers, she'd admit she just wants someone to hang out with.

She misses him a lot, today.]


((ooc: feel free to respond to her video, spot her around the city, or if you're one of her roommates, engage with her there!))

[It really is more than a bit odd, that's for sure... but Kain is getting used to strange things in this cave. So once he's sure he's got Ellie securely on his back, he nods toward Rydia.]

We'll be back in a moment. [Then he returns his attention toward Ellie.] Ready? Then... here we go!

[To Kain, it's like second nature, jumping off from the ground into the sky. It barely seems to take him effort at all as he launches himself upward. They ascend very rapidly, going as high as they can manage before almost reaching the height of the cave itself. It almost seems they'll hit the ceiling, but Kain is ready... and he's got much more control over himself in the air than that.]

[Swiftly, he flips around to start descending, bringing them back downward...]

[There's a small amused frown from her as she pats his shoulder, she doesn't ned them to 'be back in a moment', she wants to see the dragoon socialize]

Kain, take all the time, you two are supposed to go and have fun... [She crosses her arms, offering an half smug grin to the younger woman] It's mutual, Ellie, the alternative was staying at home, bored, this way we're all doing something cool, right? And you gave me a great reason to call Kain between other people so, well, I owe you one.

Go and have fun!

[A thumb up in return and she just... steps back, waiting for them to be done, no matters how long it'll take.]

[It strikes Ellie as a little strange that Rydia is so keen to get Kain out and about. Maybe the guy is a total hermit? Well, whatever. Not her problem. She answers eagerly in the affirmative when Kain asked if she's ready, and then they're off.

The entire time they ascend, Ellie is just shrieking, arms almost painfully tight around Kain. She finds her smile somewhere around the time they reach near the top of the cave, and on the way back down, she's whooping and laughing far more, clearly without any worries as to who can hear.]

[The whole thing goes by fast, in a literal whirlwind. As he descends just as rapidly, Kain is in completely control over things. He comes downward, landing right on his feet. He bends a little on impact, straightening up right after. He glances back toward Ellie to see how she’s doing. The excited shouts and laughter probably give it away. Kain is basically a human carnival ride.]

What do you think? Did you enjoy that?

[He’s willing to go for it again, of course, but may as well find out first and foremost what she thinks.]
