lavandarlizard2Last week was one of "those" weeks. >.< The kind that screws up your life *and* costs money. Car problems again. *sigh* All fixed now and my baby is running better than in years. ^___^ I guess that's worth it. That's what available credit is for. ^__^
This week won't suck near as much, but I am coming down with a head cold. I hate summer ick. It always seems that much worse than having the ick in the winter. >_> Like a personal thing.
Oh, hey, like my new icon? That's my new big guy. ^__^ The old big guy is still with me, but this guy is nearly twice his size. O.O Big Kitty is Big!
BFB – Part 104 – Freaky
The spectators... freaked out. Duo wasn't exactly unconscious, but his attempts at communication lacked any coherency for several minutes, as did his immediate thoughts. His hearing was fine; his three friends were freaking out.
“Oh, shit! Lord Wizard Wyvern is going to kill me!”
“Should I call Jacob?”
“Damn... No, he's breathing; I can see his chest moving.”
“I'm calling Jacob.”
Duo twitched.
“...noooo...” he moaned with an effort.
“Duo?! Oh crud, Duo! No, don't move; you could be hurt!”
“...hehhh meeee uhhhh...”
“What? Help you up?! Oh, hell, no! You stay right there while we get some water.”
“...ehhhhhhh...”
“Duo, it's Ctik. You don't want me to call Jacob?”
“...nnnn caaaaa...”
“All right... I'll wait five minutes, but if you're still this disoriented then, I am calling.”
“...kkk...”
“Ctik, can you check him for any broken bones or bleeding? No, stay down, Duo. You are not to move until we know you're not dribbling blood or crunching bones.”
“Did she spell you?! Lord Wizard Wyvern will kill her and me!”
“Okay. Here; let me help you. There. No, just lean on me. You're not heavy, silly boy.”
“...waaaa...rrr...?”
“Oh! Sorry Lord Banshee. Let me hold it. Would you like some more? I'll be right back.”
“...gah... dirrrr im mmmy mouf... ...bleh...”
“What happened? It looked like she was going to use her wand. Did she?!”
(bleh... bleh... hack... cough... bleh...)
Finally, his tongue seemed to be working again. Slowly.
“...nno... ssse jus wen...t... (gag) ...moth'rfuck'r...”
“Duo...?”
“Fu... yr dir tastes nasy...”
“Oh my stripes! Never mind the dirt! You're sure she didn't do something to you?! What happened?!”
Duo coughed and spat out some residual dirt.
“Power...” he gasped. “Tried to keep it in... aw fuck... I... I think I zapped myself...”
“Duo, should I call Jacob now?”
“No.”
“But-”
“No. He'll have a cow... and pro'bly a litter of kittens... I'm... okay... Mosly. Jus... dirt. Yuck.”
“You are so stubborn.”
“Yeah...”
“Why don't you fellows sit on the porch for a bit? I'll see if I can talk some sense into this young idiot. And Farq, go ahead and change. Since she's gone,” growled the Were-Tiger. Farq brightened visibly and morphed into his human form.
“Um... Okay. Would you like some ice tea?” he asked Ctik.
“That would be lovely. It's been a while since I had something relaxing like that.”
“Okay, they're out of earshot,” murmured Ovalia. “Now, what the hell, Duo?!”
“Ctik's not. Vampire hearing.”
“???”
“Like Farq... Another stray. I'm supposed to be finding him a new home, but well... vampire.”
“Of course. Is anything ever normal with you?”
“Hah. Look who's talking... Nah... I just... I just almost turned that bitch into kibble. Tried to wrestle it down... Think I need to work on that... Wow... Never done that before...” He relaxed against Ovalia's flank, just for a couple of minutes, he told himself, and rubbed his temples.
