2 Fathoms

[Hey there Para.  It's day two, and Delta here seems to be well enough to walk around again!  So here's a massive man in a deep-sea diving suit trundle-stomping around the first floor and probably making some low whale-y sounds to himself.  He's being very thorough with his exploration of the castle, or has a whole lot of time on his hands!  Slow and steady~  Why not say hello?]

Comments

[heirdom]

Positive.

[Damian reaches to touch his suit.]

[Delta won't do anything to stop him. He isn't mad, and doesn't think ill of the boy. He's got a pretty high tolerance for people like this, depending on whether or not certain buttons are pressed. That's probably why he's making the effort to talk more.]

Who says I don't?

[heirdom]

Me.

[he inspects the panels on the suit and the joints]

[johnny-topside.livejournal.com]

[Everything is sealed up nice n' tight! He can walk on the sea floor about 6 miles down, as a matter of trivia, so this is a very well put-together suit, though it's obviously seen some action of a kind that doesn't exactly involve examining sea critters.]

Such a sharp kid, surely knows to think past the surface?

[heirdom]

[Oh, he can put that together very easily. Damian has a good head for mechanics.]

Obviously. But this place has a pattern. I've been reading about it –– it's boring, but it'll probably be worth it. There are always signs before something bad happens.

[johnny-topside.livejournal.com]

Am I supposed to be a sign of something bad, then?

[heirdom]

Not necessarily. Just suspicious that you'd lumber around in this thing.

[he rounds the back and taps the tanks with his knuckles.]

What's in there?

[johnny-topside.livejournal.com]

[He'd chuckle if he could. 'kid completely missed it.]

[The clear tanks are definitely full, both a red and blue liquid, respectively, sit within each, and run through tubes at their bottoms into the suit. The solid ones may or may not have something in them.]

Nothing you need to concern yourself with.

[heirdom]

[Which clearly means Damian needs some to figure out what it is.]

Oh yeah?

[johnny-topside.livejournal.com]

[Y'ain't gettin' any unless you tear that tube out of the tank or bust it open somehow. He turns to face the boy.]

That's right.

[heirdom]

Sounds like you're hiding something.

[and this is where one awesome loli enters, or rather she heard Delta's awful and garbled voice and decided to come over :D she's completely ignoring Damian as she addresses him though oops. Must be too short]

Hello Johnny.

[He looks down at Yaya and the amber light in his helmet flickers green for a moment before he turns back to Damian.]

Vigilance is good, not paranoia.

[heirdom]

Says the guy who stays in an old diving suit when there's no active threat.

[GLOWERS AT YAYA, THOUGH.]

[berefts.livejournal.com]

[SUP CHILD HOW WAS BEING KIDNAPPED BY MY BOSS? Yaya moves to stand off to the side of her awesome new bb]

It is a rather grotesque outfit.

[johnny-topside.livejournal.com]

Hardly matters.

[heirdom]

[narrows his eyes at Yaya for a moment –– familiar voice, much? –– and then looks up at the diver. Ugh, so tall, his neck hurts just looking up.]

Tt. Presentation counts for a lot.

[berefts.livejournal.com]

[it does have a certain monotone charm♥]

It does make you look strong however.

[johnny-topside.livejournal.com]

Doesn't count enough.

[heirdom]

You're the freak in the metal suit.

[berefts.livejournal.com]

It gives him a certain charm. [finally looking down at you, Damian]

[johnny-topside.livejournal.com]

[He tilts his head at Damian as much as his helmet will allow.]

Upset?

[heirdom]

Not in the slightest.

[berefts.livejournal.com]

[ffff, just looks between them]

[johnny-topside.livejournal.com]

[He turns around and starts walking the other way, down the hall as he was before Damian snuck up on him.]
