We Are Our Avatars X (Closed, Ended)

With a weird expression on her mouth, Anik said: "I don't know if I want to eat parts of you, Hillary, even if you are not dirt."

Turning her head to Hillary, she added: "I can understand. I don't really like it either, at least Robin showed me how to create some that does not hurt me. But ... it is really hot, and it is in the air, but it is not really a thing. It's really weird. I have burnt my hand sometimes, before, because I could not tell where exactly it was.
But ... is there something about how it looks that scares you as well?"

"Thanks." Anik said to Timea.

"Timea is right, Hillary. To make a handstand, you need to push yourself off the ground, similar to jumping. And running is good to get used to using your legs.
Especially because you do not have the strength I have." she said later. "Doing a cartwheel is really hard, but I think we could try the handstand, just on the ground, of course. Then we can see how good you can push yourself off the ground.

... but don't be dissappointed if you can not do it. I have done this most of my life, so I had lots and lots of training. It is quite hard to do the first time, and many humans can not do it."

"Ah. Good idea." Robin said.

Quan Chi looked around, coming to the petrified tree. "Strange..." He looked to Shara. "Where would the prison be?"

"Why not?" Hillary replied back, finding it weird she wouldn't wanna have some good noms. She however listened to Anik's description of fire, pulling her hands a bit closer to herself when Anik mentioned that her hands had been burnt. "Well it does look kinda scary, but that's not it either. It's just feels like something I should stay away from."

"No it's not, you just gotta use your hands instead of your feet and stand on those, you don't gotta jump or run or any of that hard stuff." Hillary argued, not in an accusing way but just stating her opinion.

"That's not quite right, Hillary. Standing on your hands is a lot harder than it is on your feet, especially for longer times. You'll have your whole bodyweight pressing down on your arms, you see, so you'll need to get strong to hold yourself up. It's also a matter of balancing. And if you have a hard time keeping your balance when running, this would be ever so hard" Timea explained, after Hillary objected.

"... It's weird, eating other people." Anik said, not sure how to even explain it. "But about the fire - that does make sense, it seems to be your instinct. Animals and People have this as well, especially if they are big fires. Not knowing what it could do to you, I would say that you should trust your instinct and stay away from it."

[hr]

South-Eastern Road - Day 8 - 11:39

Anik laughed. "You are very stubborn, Hillary, but Timea is right again. You know, why don't you try to show it to us, if you think it is that easy?"

"Well I'm not saying you gotta eat all of me, that's silly. But I'm definitely gonna stay away from the fires, I don't like those one bit." Hillary answered.

[hr]

South-Eastern Road - Day 8 - 11:39

"Ya, you just watch." Hillary said as she stopped walking and set her hands on the ground. It would take a bit of work, to get herself up, but she would be able to get herself off her feet and instead on her hands and head. Her hair would also have fallen across most of the ground around her, potentially making a pseudo mound for her to keep her balance with. Although she was somewhat cheating by still having her head on the ground, she seemed to have no problem keeping her feet up in the air. "See, I can do it!"

"Obviously not all of you ... but even parts. I'm really not sure about this." Anik said. She got up, and felt for the carcass again. "Anyways, let us get moving again, we have a long road ahead of us."

[hr]

South-Eastern Road - Day 8 - 11:39

Anik furrowed her brow as she heard Hillary telling her success. "What did she do?" she whispered into Timeas ear.

South-Eastern Road - Day 8 - 11:39​

As Hillary announced she would prove her and Anik wrong, Timea stopped walking, and turned to face Hillary. She watched on as Hillary placed her hands on the ground, smiling as she pushed herself upward. "Ooh! Why, that's not bad, at all! There is still a little to improve on, but you did prove me wrong on having the basics down!" she said, encouragingly, answering Anik's question in the process.

South-Eastern Road - Day 8 - 12:09​

After Hillary's demonstration, the trio continued on towards Utaranna, having more small talk on the way. After thirty minutes of walking, Timea looked down to Anik. "Hmm. All this talking about artful movements has me wanting to do a few. It's a shame I won't be able to show you my style of tricks, Anik."

Calibeth City, day 7

Quan Chi started wandering the streets aimlessly, looking for anything that looked like a jail.

 

[Godzillarich(aka tf2godz)]

the Doctor and Beak were walking on their way to Utarra.

Beak sniff the air and turned to the doctor "something smells weird, and it's getting closer." he said as he turned towards the sky. "Um Guys!" beaks said as he saw a winged monstrosity heading straight towards them.

Spoiler

"Everyone down." the doctor said as the creature attempted to snatch one of them.

 

[Silence]

South-Eastern Road - Day 8 - 11:39

Anik clapped her hands. "Good job, Hillary! Now I just would need a more detailed description, so I could tell you how to improve it."

[hr]

When Timea was done carrying her, Anik stood on Timeas shoulders again, jumped in the air and made a backflip, landing on her feet, in a bowing motion. Just the heavy sound of the landing and her standing slightly unsure showed that she had not been able to judge the height perfectly.

[hr]

South-Eastern Road - Day 8 - 12:09

Anik, now carrying Hillary on her shoulders again, walked next to Timea, using her cane.

"Hmm ... well you can describe them. And I at least can hear how you do them, and maybe even feel the vibration of the ground. It's not a big deal." she responded.

 

[Chungus]

South-Eastern Road - Day 8 - 12:09​

"Feeling the movements, and hearing them, won't be possible. Remember, I don't have your sense of balance on two legs, and am not build to preform any eccentric movements, on four. Plus, I'll probably end up stuck in the ground, if I did manage to jump like that", Timea responded, letting out a small laugh. "No, I'm referring to aerial movements. On the ground, I might be a little on the stiff side, but in the sky, I am queen."

 

[Silence]

South-Eastern Road - Day 8 - 12:09

"Oh. I was thinking about clicking as well, but that would not be possible, either." Anik said, kind of disappointed.

"Wait - I could ride you, then I would be able to feel the movements. At least for some time, until I get seasick, or something. But judging how smooth it went before ...
well, your call. But that would be the only possibility for me to experience your artistry." she said after a few moments, more excited.

 

[Drakmorg]

Feeling the conversation die out, Cybil would just eat and rest until the Vesh'Rah who had left to secure passage across the sea returned, unless anyone else had anything to say to her before then.

Calibeth City - Day 7 - ~02:00

Quan Chi would find nothing that would seem to be a jail but, nor would he find any people in the city.

[hr]

Utarra - 12:30

The man who had headed to the docks returned, and informed the rest of the party the ship would be leaving shortly.

[hr]

Femesh Daer - Day 7 - 25:30

The ship pulled into Femesh Daer not long before dawn. The group would've had opportunities to rest and eat during the journey, meaning they could head out as soon as possible.
The city itself would have visibly changed since they had last been there, with the completion of Yeager's factory and the new walls being put up.

"No, I don't want to do that", Timea was quick to answer. "With my kind, joined aerial movements like that are either a courtship dance, or a way to finalize a union between two lovers. It depends on how it's done". she explained, her tone and delivery probably indicating she was serious. "It's a shame, but I suppose descriptions would be the only way to get the movement across."
