zone 1 ✖ video ✖ infinity doesn't live here anymore

[ex_sanct298]

[ fuckin'

impurities.

— yes, the phantoms, the wretched sinful ghosts being led by the mysterious guardian of this zone, of this ship. apparently they think they can just magically NOT SHOW THEMSELVES after he went through all that trouble of ARRIVING RATHER GROTESQUELY for whichever reason whatsoever.

anyway.

he can't be bothered to ponder over why he doesn't have his add-ons with him here, amongst many other peculiar things.

(— like why these inhabitants don't look like genuine elsen inhabitants?)

honestly, he needs them to stand a longer chance in battle against spectres of any sort, and yeah, purification is pretty much dominating his mind right now. his best bet would probably be to ask this community of people at large if they've seen it, utilizing this... device.

so what you're getting, residents of the tranquility, is a man who looks like he just walked off a baseball field, avoiding eye contact with the feed. his cap is tilted at a low angle, and there's something in his hands — too bad it's cut off from plain view. ]

...I'm looking for the Alpha and Omega.

[ he looks down once before barely meeting the camera again. ]

My bat's clean.

[ ooc | he'll read the faq if someone links him. seeing is not believing, however. ]

Alpha and Omega.

[ need some explanation? look no further: ]

My Add-Ons.

permavoice!

[cobaltblue]

Your... Okay, man, never mind.

Wait, what do you mean by add-ons?

[ex_sanct298]

[ your name is THE BATTER and you are already confusing people immensely —

wrong storyboard, pal ]

They're spiritual entities that lack physicality. I prefer not to battle without them.

[cobaltblue]

Um. Okay. That's... kind of a crazy coincidence.

I mean, not that I know anything like that because I don't. But, uh. ... Yeah. Sorry, man. Guess you're out of luck.

[ex_sanct298]

[ would he be familiar with some other alpha and omega? ]

Are you sure you don't? Your voice sounds a bit riled.

[cobaltblue]

Uh, yeah. I'm sure. But, uh. Good luck. I guess.

You're going to be looking a long time for them.

[ex_sanct298]

[ that sounds like a statement only someone who has the slightest clue of the location of his add-ons are would make... ]

I don't understand.

permatext

[ghostthatlingers]

Why are you looking for them?

[ex_sanct298]

I need to liberate malignance from this ship.

[ghostthatlingers]

And Alpha and Omega are your way to do that?

[ex_sanct298]

They assist me on my sacred mission, yes.

[ always yet never getting to the point ]

[ghostthatlingers]

How long have you been here?

[Delta doesn't say anything just yet, but he's watching like like whoa. He really hopes Omega isn't actually here, after all.]

Your bat?

[ex_sanct298]

I had blood on my bat before I arrived. Someone must've cleaned it.

[ which, in a way, bothers him in the slightest. ]

[culver]

[oh like a wooden bat not an animal. that makes sense]

Strange things happen like that sometimes.

[ex_sanct298]

[ he decides to lift the wooden harold bat into frame. it's a little beaten up from constant purifications, but is sturdy, nonetheless. ]

I don't think it's strange. Just annoying.

[culver]

Why would it be annoying?

[ex_sanct298]

Because I don't like the idea of unidentified beings cleaning my bat.

[ in a recess of his mind, having a bloody bat prior to a battle mixes blood with blood to a point where it doesn't look like blood anymore. in a recess of his mind, indistinguishable stains make for easier swings in which all spectres will inevitably suffer his judgment. ]

[culver]

But it is still clean.

[workout]

[ what. ]

... what's the bat for?

video;

[ex_sanct298]

[ when the baseball bat is visibly in the frame, he pats one end against his palm. ]

I use it to beat up impurities.

[ get with the program yo ]

[workout]

[ scott is not even remotely with this program. there's an awkward pause, because he realizes this follow-up makes him sound particularly dim, but there's really no way around it. ]

What's an impurity?

video;

[ex_sanct298]

[ WELL, it's a good thing the batter is just oh so great at clarifying all his obscure tendencies; after all, where would ANYONE be without explicit knowledge of all these odd colloquialisms?

that's right, pretty much where they currently are... whoops. ]

A damned ghost. [ but he says it flatly; so there's a pause, then airquotes: ] A damned ghost.

video;

[workout]

[ oh yes that is extremely helpful, thank you.

what the crap. although there's some relief at the distinctly unwolfy clarification (unless it's supposed to be a very weird and roundabout threat, of course). ]

Oh.

Wouldn't a bat just go through a ghost?

[ex_question191]

I'm pretty sure ~the Alpha~ is ignoring everyone's calls right now, but I can take a message.

[ex_sanct298]

[ THE ALPHA, the alpha, this stranger knows the Alpha — and finding it was as simple as notifying the community at large, as he had predicted. surely phase one of project: Purify Tranquility was already complete; but, of course, he must finish the call first: ]

...

Meet me in my cabin.

[ hmm, is that all he wants to say? ]

Beep.

[ex_question191]

[ did this guy just beep? ]

[ invite him over, and beep? ]

Wait, what? Now? Me? Me, meet you? I don't even know your name. Aren't you gonna at least offer me candy?

1/2

[ex_sanct298]

[ The beep is the most important part of the message, clearly. Also, the Batter is a big loser. ]

What. [ Why would he ever offer this puny guy candy. Candy costs credits. MONEY HE DOESN'T NEED TO WASTE? ] I thought I was talking to the Alpha. [ Weird kid. ]

[ex_sanct298]

[ ...Wait. He probably should introduce himself, should he. Not that he cares about being polite, but the message should be BY someone, right? ]

I'm the Batter. By the way.

[ex_question191]

I'm not the Alpha, yo, sorry. I'm Stiles. Stiles Stilinski.

[ he considers asking what the hell kind of name is "the batter" but whatever, maybe he's a time lord. and he gets enough people asking him about "stiles" that he's not gonna be a hypocritical dick. ]

So are you, uh, you know. Awrooo.
