Black Phoenix [RPG] [Unrated]

[The Truth]

(Ann): "Who?"
(Zach): "Yes."
Suits of armor lined the entrance hallway. In the main room, a huge spiral staircase led upwards. Painting of incomprehensibly horrible creatures lines the walls, their eyes following Anna. A half-eaten slice of pie was on a large table in the main room.

[Magical Girl Mimi]

-==IC: Anna==-

Anna looked shocked when she saw the pie.
"The horror! Someone left that uneaten!"

[The Truth]

(Ann): "I like pie..."

[Magical Girl Mimi]

-==IC: Anna==-

Anna nodded.
"I've got half a mind to stop this villain just because of that."

[The Truth]

Zach gestured to the staircase. "After you, meatsh-er, milady."

[Magical Girl Mimi]

-==IC: Anna==-

Anna rolled her eyes, but walked forward.

[The Truth]

In the topmost floor, an stark-naked elderly man was hopping around a badly-drawn pentagram.
(Oldguy): "Hoopa-woopa-fleepy-flo!"

[Magical Girl Mimi]

-==IC: Anna==-

"Is this the guy?" Anna asked, skeptical.

[The Truth]

(Oldguy): "Hoopa hoopa HOO-" he noticed them. "Oh, hello. Terribly sorry I didn't notice you earlier. Are you the demons come to drag all reality screaming into the gibbering madness of hell?"

[Magical Girl Mimi]

-==IC: Anna==-

Anna thought for a moment.
"Nope, as nice as it might sound sometimes, especially about every month, we aren't."

[The Truth]

The old man looked very sad.

(Zach): "So, did you happen to buy a camera lately?"

(Oldguy): "Oh! Oh yes, the Camera Mortis! Yes, yes, it's right here on this shelf."

Zach leaned in to examine the camera. "Yep, that's a camera alright."

Ann glided over as well. "That's it?"

Zach nodded. "Yep. Alright, let's go."

He turned and made to leave, without even making an effort to take, or even carefully inspect, the camera.

[Magical Girl Mimi]

-==IC: Anna==-

"Wait, what are you doing?" Anna asked with a frown, not sure why they weren't taking the camera.

[The Truth]

"Going to TGI Fridays. My treat."

Ann nodded. "Milkshakes."

OOC: I may be craving a certain restaurant.

[Magical Girl Mimi]

-==IC: Anna==-

Anna stared blankly, and then frowned, her lips pursed, as she followed them, knowing not to actually say anything right at that moment, since the creepy dude was present too.

[The Truth]

The old guy turned back to his pentagram and began flapping his arms like a chicken. "OOGA OOGA FLOOM!"

[Magical Girl Mimi]

-==IC: Anna==-

Anna turned away from the creepy guy in question.

[The Truth]

"HOORPA FLOORPA GORP! YIMMA YAMMA FLEEMY FLOO!"

(Zach): *descending the stairs* "What are your thoughts on hot wings, hotlips?"

[Magical Girl Mimi]

-==IC: Anna==-

"They sound good." Anna said, and briefly considered leaving the camera topic alone. But then decided against that. "Exactly why did we leave the camera behind, again?"

[The Truth]

(Zach): "I'm not the one that's cursed. I just came because I was curious. let that girl find the camera if she wants to save her life. She'll probably die anyway, though."

[Magical Girl Mimi]

-==IC: Anna==-

"Right. Save me some wings, would ya?" Anna asked, as she ran out of the building for the moment, and then hid herself for a moment, as she tried to 'sleep'.
