At the Barrier's Edge / Video

[fierybluebird]

[Hey Luceti, have you ever seen a bird fly hard into a closed window?]

[Because that is exactly what a certain pissed off phoenix is basically doing with the barrier. First he just throws his whole body at it, which makes a sickening cracking sound a little like a bird slammed into a window. Sparkles and blue feathers going flying as Marco gets thrown straight back only to make a sharp dive and try again.]

[This goes on a few more times before Marco gives up and switches to human.]

[Fine.]

[Then he starts throwing kicks at it as hard and quickly as he can. This was not bright.]

[Seriously not bright.]

[Because each kick gets thrown right back at his head.]

[After a few more of these, a camera flash or two from Law to the side, Marco appears somewhat satisfied with kicking himself in the bloody blue sparkly face.]

I get the feeling this is harder on the inside than outside, yoi.

I have no idea what to do with those points.

[Other than a present for Robin... whenever both their tempers calm down.]

Oh. Just fine, yoi.

[Deadpan, but no. NO HE IS NOT.]

[gigglesnortpriestess]

That doesn't look like it...

[She knows deadpan when she hears it; blame Yu for that.]

Re: [Video]

[fierybluebird]

Really?

[He seems... kind of surprised, but nope, still deadpan. With blue blood and sparkles.]

[Video]

[gigglesnortpriestess]

Really.

[They can play this all day and...is he bleeding blue?!]

Do you need someone to heal you?

[Video]

[fierybluebird]

[Yup! Blue sparkles that flicker and look a little like flames.]

No, I'm a phoenix. It just takes longer here.

[This is spoken in exactly the same deadpan as the rest, so it probably sounds just as ridiculous.]

[Normal people would yell and freak at hearing 'phoenix'. Yukiko...not so much.]

It shouldn't matter if you are or not. It would be bad for anyone to get hurt.

[And the blue blood man...weird.]

[Video]

[fierybluebird]

It matters because it makes most other forms of healing irrelevant. [Though not so much in Luceti, but whatever. Being healed properly would defeat the purpose.]

[Video]

[gigglesnortpriestess]

...I don't get it.

[It must be a guy thing.]

[Video]

[fierybluebird]

Never heard of a phoenix before?

[Video]

[gigglesnortpriestess]

[Uh...well, what did her shadow kind of turn into? Big freaky firebird.]

I'm...familiar.

[Don't say anything more please. It's only been like two weeks and she's trying to deal man.]

[Video]

[fierybluebird]

In any case, it's fine.

[It's not though and he's bleeding blue sparkly blood from his lip.]
