FEAR PLOT

FEAR PLOT

The fears we don’t face become our limits.

DATES: Saturday, August 3 - Tuesday, August 6

SUMMARY: Ostrich Villa residents wake up to an eerie, black sky. Dark ghost-like creatures confront those brave enough to venture out. Those confronted not only feel dread and cold when these creatures approach, but also face their worst fears. The creatures seem invincible; neither magical nor lay means kill them. The sun does not come up while the creatures roam Goodland.

Re: CREATURE CONFRONTATIONS: Freddy & Jason

The message from their ‘host’ had barely come out before the former Robins had fallen into their familiar pattern. They were all trained in patrolling without drawing any unnecessary attention to themselves, a task which was made that much easier with so many shadows to sink into. Whatever the creatures were wasn’t something they’d dealt with before, but in the lingering darkness it held a similar tone to plenty of their prior experiences. Horrific beings in strange clothing appearing throughout the city, and picking numerous victims with no particular method and no reasonable explanation for why? It felt more and more like Gotham city by the moment.

The only thing they were missing was a terrible theme.

To his credit, Nightwing had given completely reasonable instructions. Stick to groups, set clear perimeters, keep in communication, and try to determine exactly what they were going up against. It made sense this early into things and Jason was generally willing to follow them. In spite of what anyone may have thought, he didn’t really have a compulsion to break rules. But he also didn’t have any intention of sticking close enough to risk attempts at dredging up distant memories when there was a lull in activity. That meant that when he felt a certain sort of silence take over, one that was more pronounced than comfortable, he’d slipped away to avoid the mere possibility of it.

It also meant that Jason was the first person to hear Freddy calling out with a distinct tone of terror to his voice. By the time that he’d found the source of those cries, though, there was nothing left to see except for the boy bloodied and slumped on the ground. There was an instance of relief to see that Freddy wasn’t hurt worse than he was; he was alive even if he was stuck trying to drag himself toward a much more battered crutch than he’d had before.

Jason took off his mask as he approached Freddy, tucking it under an arm so he’d be recognizable when he came into the boy’s line of sight. The last thing he needed to do was strike more fear into his heart by appearing out of nowhere looking the way that he did like he was just some continuation of whatever had just happened. “Freddy,” he said to announce his presence “It’s okay. I’m going to help you up, alright?”

As he knelt down on the sidewalk, he offered an arm out to Freddy to help him brace himself so that they could get him into a better position. He was more than willing to completely lift him off the ground but what fourteen (and a half) year old wanted a bridal carry to be someone’s first instinct around them? Especially one who’d probably spent enough of his life having people make assumptions about his capabilities.

(OOC: I made an assumption about Freddy’s cane getting broken at this point, but if I’m wrong and that’s a later occurrence let me know and I will edit.)

Freddy would have been happy to see Jason with his mask on a normal day, but right then he only felt embarrassed. He had no idea what just happened, but it felt all too real. And that chill? Well, it hit to the bone. Still, he did need help. He saw his crutch was useless and, on some level, he realized his face was bloodied too. Heck, even the bullies who beat him up at school that time hadn't made him bleed. Later, Freddy might find the irony funny, but not in that moment. "Hi, Jason," he replied quietly. "Thanks."

He reached for Jason's shoulder as Jason inclined his arm toward him. He hoisted himself using the strong side of his body. He appreciated Jason not scooping him up. He was humiliated enough. "Crappy morning," he weakly kidded.

It was times like this that Jason wished he had all the charm and natural social graces of his brother. Dick would have known the right thing to say to help Freddy bounce back to his usual chipper self in a heartbeat, but all Jason could offer was that life really did suck. That didn’t seem like the thing to say to a child, though, no matter how true it was. “Yeah. They could have at least waited for Halloween, then their costumes would have made some sense.” he replied to Freddy’s assessment before letting his tone soften. “Are you okay?”

It was obvious that Jason didn’t really mean the bruises and split lip, but he felt like there was enough leeway in the question for Freddy to brush it off as that if he didn’t want to talk about it. The crutch wasn’t looking it’s best either when Jason reached to snatch it off the ground, taking it along with them so that Freddy could make the decision for himself once the nurse had given his face a more proper examination than just glancing down at him.
