o1. video / optional action

[Today, two unforgivable errors were made: the first, he let Rosette use the kitchen.

The second: He let Rosette use the kitchen.

When the feed blinks to life, the serenity of the figure facing the camera is directly at odds with the thunderous cacophony in the background. Chrono just smiles blandly at his unseen audience as a terrible burst of sparks makes itself visible in—is his back to the apartment's kitchen?]


I just had a quick question. [He might as well dive right into it, as a crash echoes around the apartment. He doesn't even flinch.] Does anyone here know how to repair electronics? A microwave, specifically? I think apartment number 304 could use your services.

[It's here that Rosette comes into view, hurdling around the corner as smoke billows in her wake; if Chrono were actually looking, he might think it seems appropriate for Rosette's definition of an entrance. It's unclear whether she's addressing Chrono or the tablet (even realizes he's talking to the tablet) when she bellows FIRE! THAT'S A FIRE! It's very likely the former based on how the serenity of Chrono's smile twitches into something that speaks silent danger for someone.]

Quickly, if it isn't too much trouble? [The feed doesn't cut off; evidently, his quiet fury is such that he completely forgets to turn off the tablet before hurling it across the room to go perform some manner of intervention.

It lands facing a ceiling that is growing increasingly smokey.]




action.

[Anyone who actually approaches apartment #304 will find an impressive cloud of black smoke billowing out of the open door that smells distinctly of burnt electronics and scorched metal. Rosette's voice will make itself known second, shouting about how the kitchen is out to get her and this isn't her fault.

If one actually ventures into the abyss (which speaks volumes toward a capacity for bad decisions, by the way), they'll find a frantic teenage girl and a long-suffering little kid trying to determine the best way to put out an impressive electrical fire.]

acemedium: this isn't awkward at all (Soooo about that AJ)

Hey, Chrono.... [Oh, look! It's Maya! She's looking intently into the camera, possibly serious for once, and seems to be taking in this situation and Deeply Thinking about how to approach it.]

[Surely, gouging from the Serious Expression on her face she's going to have some valuable advice or a contribution of some sort to....]

[Just as your keen analysis of the crime scene was being voiced, Chrono had dropped the tablet with somewhat, possibly, murderous intent.

More importantly, by the jarring, swirling scene as it tumbles, or the hazy view of the ceiling as it comes to a stop... he might not have heard the important deduction before he left.]
acemedium: it would be better if this was how burger was formed (and that is how babby is formed)

[Oh Chrono did you not hear her, she speaks louder]

Your apartment's on fire!! [How is this fine Chrono come on]

Don't worry, I'm coming to help! [YOUR WORST NIGHTMARES... CONFIRMED]

[The scene on the floor is very dramatic when you get there. Smoke billows out of the door, and you can clearly see the kitchen fire beyond... It's just like that one episode of the Steel Samurai where the Minions of Evil tried to kill the Iron Infant by DEVIOUS AND IMMORAL MEANS....]

Stay outside! I think it... CHRONO GET THE ONE BY THE STOVE!

[IT REALLY IS. Especially the microwave troubles, that completely happened in Neo Olde Tokyo]

[AND MAYA, PLAYING THE PART OF THE EVIL SAMURAI.... DRAMATICALLY FILLS A BUCKET OF WATER AND RUNS THE WHOLE WAY TO THEIR APARTMENT. .... Which is two doors down]


Never fear, Maya Fey is here to save the day! [Pokes her head in...]

... Wow, it's really smoky in here. [Maya Fey: better known as Captain Obvious]
soul_sister: (OOoooOOOOoooooh)

[personal profile] soul_sister 2013-08-10 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[Rosette looks about to snap at the young girl who defied direct and unusually cautious orders... when she sees the bucket and brightens up.]

Oh! GOOD! Splash that on the walls and near the kitchen door!
acemedium: (hay gaiz wuts going on in this thread)

STEEL SAMURAI not evil wow

[personal profile] acemedium 2013-08-12 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, that's as good as an invitation to hop right in, so don't mind her as Maya cheerfully and enthusiastically enters with her bucket sloshing]

Roger!

[... And immediately starts coughing]
soul_sister: (Speak up!)

ACTION TAG TURNABOUT

Hey! Take it easy, put something over your face!

[Holds up her sleeve....]

Does this work?!
soul_sister: (A little hard work)

[personal profile] soul_sister 2013-08-18 03:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Probably close enough!

Get some towels! We're going to smother the smaller ones!
acemedium: (gaydar readings over 9000 etc etc)

[personal profile] acemedium 2013-08-22 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
R-Right! What about the water? Should I throw that first? Or should I save it for the final blow?

[TELL HER WHAT TO DO ROSETTE-SEMPAI]
soul_sister: (Break ALL the bones)

[personal profile] soul_sister 2013-08-30 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
The final blow! A tidal wave a victory over the sorry ashes of the kitchen that DARED to rise up against us.
acemedium: U BETTER CHECK  YOURSELF BEFORE U WRECK YOURSELF (BITCHES GONNA GET POINTED AT)

[personal profile] acemedium 2013-09-03 06:44 am (UTC)(link)
....Wow, you're hardcore! But I like the way you think!

[OKAY BUCKET GOES ON THE FLOOR and Maya scurries off to get some towels] We'll take those suckers down!
acemedium: does anything else need to be said (OBJECTION!!!11!1!11)

[No Chrono, it's cool. Maya's here and she's brought.... a bucket of water.]

[(In other words, there is no need to protect the fire from her, she would totally help it)]


Really? Because all I see is a lot of fire! And smoke.

[You are in clear need of her help. Clearly] Don't worry, I got this!
acemedium: (y u mad tho)

Action

[personal profile] acemedium 2013-08-11 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
[More like an hero amirite]

[It actually is the tagline for her entire life, but Chrono is so capslock-y and urgent sounding she (luckily) pauses rather than throw it]


What? It's a fire! You put water on a fire! [THIS IS COMMON SENSE. Clearly]

[His hands are not CAPSLOCK-Y ENOUGH, so Maya just gives him a weird look instead]

What's so special about it?

Don't tell me.... [DRAMATIC PAUSE] You don't want it put out at all?!
acemedium: she'll beat you up with her noodle arms (Does Maya have to smack a bitch?)

Action

[personal profile] acemedium 2013-08-16 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
[She squints at him suspiciously... she's onto you, Chrono]

What does electrocution have to do with it? [Your capslock motions might not be enough now!!!]

Don't make excuses! I know you're really trying to protect the fire!
acemedium: I got nothing wittier than that (NO U)

Action

[personal profile] acemedium 2013-08-22 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Aha! So you admit it! [She holds the bucket protectively, splashing herself slightly in the process (Well done, Maya)]

Are you some kind of argonist or something? [That's arsonist, Maya] Did you start the fire?!

Action; omg Chrono I'm sorry
