Day 215; ⛎ Voice
Pay attention, numbskulls. Drop what you’re doing. Especially you. Princess. [Caliborn pauses for effect. Even if he sounds like Calliope, his sentences are his trademark staccato and melodrama, with a side of harshness.]

I have won Euphemia’s game. With many questions to spare. Because. I found the object. [This broadcast is suddenly punctuated by the shriek of a harmonica being violently blown into, followed by an equally annoying shriek of laughter.]

She thought she could trick me. On account of my being a superior being who doesn't give a shit about music. Seriously. Who even cares about this blowing device. Not me. [He blows into it again, this time sliding it so that there is some semblance of actual music. Kind of.] What is that? Just noise. But. It is still the perfect accompaniment. To her tears of defeat.

Front and center, wench. Present yourself and admit it. To the entire prison.

That I win. And you. LOSE.

[There’s another harsh harmonica blow.]

	[Sternly.] What has she been saying about me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nothing that seems any bit off, that's for sure. God, she needs to hide the communicator on you. Do you even think before you hit that post button. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hey. You should at least turn the video on. So I can stare at you while you whine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Euuuuuuughhhh. ] Ewwwwwwww. Oh my fuck. You are such a... fuckin'... gross little creep. Disturbing freak. Minigreen leermachine. What is wrong with you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Caliborn starts snickering.] The best way to torment others. Is when you can see their face. Pass into humiliation and anger. Also. You are the only one. Of the original wonder-whore duo. Worth staring at. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Wonder-whore duo. Wonder. Whore. Duo. ] You're right. Let's talk in person. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Did I fucking stutter? [ She takes on a really pleasant tone of voice: ] I'll bring some candy if you come meet me in the hall. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[This almost seems like a trick, but Caliborn figures that as long as he knows it's one, he can still walk into it with the upper hand.] Fine. Let's go. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Thanks. [ And Roxy will be waiting in the hallway between the two apartments, leaned against one wall. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Caliborn makes her wait, even though he only has to walk out the door.] [Just long enough to make it seem intentional. Don't want to come off as a coward, after all.] [Soon he walks out, casual but he hopes rather imposing. And to drive the point home, he gives her an exaggerated once-over.] Oh. Good. You didn't chicken out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ She keeps her face neutral until he looks her over-- then and only then she sneers at him, taking a step closer. ]

Chicken out from what? Your beating?

Sorry, Callie.

[ And then she quickly grabs him by the bowtie and lands a punch square in the jaw. She releases him and steps back a pace, falling into a fighting stance. ]

Pow! Right in the kisser.

You wanna call me names? Fine. You wanna look at me like that? Okay. But you ain't gonna call my girl Jane that nasty ass shit. She's drop-dead gorgeous, a genius in the kitchen, and a kick-ass friend. All sorts of stuff you could only dream of being.

[It hurts and he stumbles back, but after a moment of nursing his jaw, he just starts laughing. Caliborn isn't even in a real fighting mood quite yet. Not when she's clearly smarting emotionally and, unfortunately, she IS better at fisticuffs than he is.]

Please. She's nothing. You're nothing.

By all means. Strike me again. I don't care.

And? Even better. That "sis" will feel it too. It's perfect.

[ She wonders how she'd have to smack him to get that smug look off his face. But Roxy is not actually a violent person, so it's just a passing thought. ]

You're such a... fuck, stop smirking like that. You're giving me the heebie jeebies, you little shit. You keep going and I'll knock your big teeth out.

[ But he knows it and she knows it: she wouldn't actually. ]

	[It's not like Caliborn knows how to quit while he's ahead, though.] Don't hold back. Wail on me. Put me in the hospital. [He opens his arms, his words half a snicker.] Do you think. That with your fists. And my ability to absorb pain. We could make her so ugly. That even your "feelings" can't look past. The reality. Of my sister? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-04-27 04:35 am UTC (link)
	[ It's becoming increasingly hard to not wail on him. And given she's also pretty drunk, she is not the best at decisions. ] You wanna go? Let's go. Outside. Now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-04-27 04:37 am UTC (link)
	[Caliborn does not have to be told twice. He turns on heel and starts down the hall, gesturing with a finger for her to follow.] Yeah. Let's go. We are overdue. After all. I still owe you for breaking the rules. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Roxy marches after, clenching her fists the entire time. When they are properly outside, she gets ready to pummel the shit out of Caliborn-- cracking her knuckles, her neck. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-04-27 04:51 am UTC (link)
	[He doesn't really bother getting ready, and tries to use her moment of cracking joints to his advantage.] [Which is to say, he whirls around and lunges at her, swinging wildly.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Roxy reacts with a little delay. So he does get a hold of her. She's drunkenly swinging her weight into him, trying to just knock him back a few paces. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Caliborn grabs on and starts trying to punch her wherever he can, even though he can't possibly land a decent punch while so unsteady on his feet.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Piper was outside when the two emerged. She frowned, staring at them for just long enough to see that they were duking something out. Considering her position on the DF, it was probably best to stop this before it got worse.] Hey! [She tried yelling to get their attention first.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-04-27 05:37 am UTC (link)
	[ Roxy does just plain not give a fuck. Sorry, Piper. She tries to trip Caliborn as she pushes him forward, wincing at the hits. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
