alright fine jeez he's alive again

[A while ago, Boone was shot. Not long after that, he died. End of story, right?]

[Yeah, no. After waking up in a bed in the infirmary, missing his weapons and feeling slow and sluggish, Boone has made it back into the hallway and is looking... lost. He's not supposed to be here. It was over for him- he felt himself slip away, and yet here he is... standing here as if nothing happened, vaguely aware that he's missing a huge chunk of time. He'd doubt that any of it ever happened in the first place, but he's seen the scar on his stomach.

He thinks back to the last thing he remembers- Elle by his side, trying desperately to save him. She'd been hysterical. All for him. Huh... it's a strange feeling. Someone giving a damn. He almost wishes she hadn't. She'd saved him a lot of pain with all the Stimpaks and Med-X she'd stuck him with, but in the end she'd had to watch him die. Just someone else who had to suffer because of him.]

[Walking feels odd after so long. He's acutely aware of the fact that he's unarmed, but he doesn't know if he can make himself care. What's the worst that can happen when you've already died? Goddamnit... he thought it was over. It was supposed to be his time. It hadn't been quick, and it had been at the hands of the Legion, but it was over. Now, he doesn't know what to do with himself. He could say he's pissed off but that wouldn't come close to how angry he is that he's walking around again. The only thing he feels he can do is make life hell for the people who killed him in the first place. Yeah... they weren't expecting him to come back from this, either. Sibyll showed him her true face because she thought he was a dead man, and Vulpes... that son of a bitch must have ordered her to follow him in the first place. If he didn't have a reason to hate the Legion before, he sure does now- and Vulpes just put himself at the top of Boone's shit list. First, though... he needs to get his weapons back, which means finding Elle. Christ, he hopes they haven't gotten to her, too.]


((haha... he was supposed to be dead for three days but it kind of didn't work out like that :| so uh, yeah. pissed off boone walking the hallways.))

u wot mVIII

[Vulpes had been enjoying the past few weeks NCR-free. Without Boone lurking the hallways, there were no longer any enemies or serious threats worth worrying about. So when he turns a corner and sees the sniper apparently alive and well once more, he is admittedly quite shocked.]

You? How? [He'd seen his grave! ...But he hadn't dug it up. Maybe it was a decoy the whole time?]

bein proper cheeky

[personal profile] truetocaesar 2013-10-04 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
[Of course... it must have been a decoy. Clever of him. Vulpes narrows his eyes at Boone, one hand resting on the handle of the ripper secured at his hip.]

Perhaps I'll just have to check your body this time.

[He'd been foolish not to. If the story of the burned man taught him anything, it was that a man should only trust another man to be dead if he sees the body for himself.]

[personal profile] truetocaesar 2013-10-04 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
We'll just see about that.

[Vulpes darts after Boone, feeling quite confident in the advantage he has here. Whatever the man might have been up to, he seems to have lost his weapon (why would he leave it behind?) Running into a room will only get him cornered.

Or, at least it would if Boone had run into an ordinary room. After Vulpes darts in after him, he suddenly finds himself standing in a strange neighborhood, his ripper gone and his Legion uniform replaced with a set of pre-war clothes. He looks around with narrowed eyes. Where is Boone?]

[personal profile] truetocaesar 2013-10-04 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
[For a few moments, Vulpes considers just leaving and waiting for Boone outside. But if he does that, he could find a weapon in here and take him by surprise... it's not worth the risk. So he starts stalking through the neighborhood, ignoring the people walking about in his single-minded effort to find the man "back from the dead" and send him to a real grave. With or without his ripper.]

[personal profile] truetocaesar 2013-10-06 09:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[Boone manages to evade Vulpes' notice as he stalks through the streets, but he isn't about to give up the hunt. At one point he pauses to inquire from a couple whether they'd seen another stranger just now, but they shake their heads 'no'. Becoming increasingly irritated, he decides to go stand in the middle of the neighborhood to get a better vantage point.]

[And there is a pissed off (at least, he looks pissed, hard to tell) ghoul standing in the hall with his arms crossed over his chest. He had checked the place out as much as he could; that kid had been telling the truth, they were on an island, with no boats or docks or anyway obvious way to get out. So he stood here and went over everything in his head, trying to piece things together.

He notices Boone from the corner of his eye, not saying anything but taking in his appearance. The man had the look of the wasteland about him, like that woman. He doesn't speak, but instead checks him over to see if he could place him; slaver? No. Raider? No. He certainly didn't have the look of a random traveler, but a soldier. The beret is a tip off sure, but that could have been scavenged. It's his demeanor.

He certainly looks pissed off.

[Charon is glad Boone isn't reacting hostile towards him, at least. The last thing he wants to do is waste ammo when he hasn't come by any in this place. It would be pretty damn annoying to have to waste it defending himself when there are probably bigger threats around this place; namely the bastards responsible for bringing him here.

He also hadn't been expected to be approached, though. God knows how long standing in that corner with everyone just knowing not to approach him got him used to just watching over things and being mostly ignored.

Couple of days. [He wonders if this guy's been here for a while. Maybe he knew something more than the last few people he spoke to.] You?

A couple of months stuck here?

[Maybe getting out of this place was going to be harder than Charon originally anticipated.]

Hrm...[That was very inconvenient.] This place...it is impossible.

[The only way he can think to describe it right now.]

Yes.

[He almost leaves it at that, but then he remembers something odd about the people he met and figured it was worth mentioning.]

One of 'em was on a horse. [Oddly enough that's all he remembers about the man.] Other one wasn't a wastelander.

Third one was.

[Sibyll was probably the least peculiar of the three.]

H-hehehe... [Comes an eerie laugh from a dark doorway. If and when Boone looks over, he'll see the Thief King standing there with his arms folded across his chest.

Even with the sunglasses Boone was wearing...he could sense it! That other man's palpable anger and hatred! He was all too familiar with the feeling himself.]


You look like you could kill a man...
stealshinies: (cheer up!)

it's ok~

[The open robe, the shendyt...it might be quite clear, quite quickly that Bakura was from another time. Or at least from a really backwards tribe.

He sounds all too amused.]
I wonder, are you always like that, or did something unforgivable happen?
stealshinies: (boast)

[personal profile] stealshinies 2013-10-12 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh heh, I'd say we have something in common!

[Bakura pushes off from the door frame, spreading his arms in a boastful gesture. There's something vicious in his expression, a deep-seated hatred bubbling to the surface.]

After all...

I know all about suffering the unforgivable...and the hatred it evokes!

[Bakura lowers his arms and offers a casual shrug.]

I was just feeling talkative, what can I say? Most people in this place have proven boring...but you stroke me as the opposite of that!

I could be wrong, though. H-hehe. It's no loss to me, really.
stealshinies: (flourish)

THERE WAS A TYPO THIS TIME I SWEAR...

[personal profile] stealshinies 2013-10-14 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
You don't know? A dress of robes and gold... [Bakura spreads his hands, just to make sure Boone can see his various golden rings and bracelets.]

Can only mean that I'm a King!
