“Is that so?” asked Xiu with amusement at Rivener’s comment on him looking regal and elegant. However, the frei could not help but quirk an eyebrow at Rivener’s choice of pose. The sigel looked… about ready to drag that poor girl by the hair; not that the girl in question was complaining. In fact, she looked extremely pleased. To each their own, I guess… thought Xiu as he turned to face the camera. Straightening himself slightly, the frei folded his arms across his chest and smiled politely at the camera. There was a brief flash followed by another and the pictures were taken. Flaring his wings a little, Xiu inclined his head as the girls thanked Rivener and him for the pictures.

Well, that’s that thought Xiu, eager to continue his exploration within the convention circle. However, his plans had to be put on hold as the Sigel informed him of the number of people approaching them with cameras. Not wanting to disappoint the crowd, Xiu bore camera flash after camera flash with random people as well as he could. There were various request made by the people during the lengthy bout of photo taking; some wanting to have a photo with each of the raevans individually, some wanting to pose with only a single raevan, some wanted the raevans to pose in a certain manner while their picture was taken and some…oddly enough were happy to have a picture consisting of only Rivener and Xiu. Then there were the questions…

Xiu listened as a torrent of questions was directed at him and the Sigel. Yes, the both of them were known as raevans and no, they were not enemies. Rivener is the older of the two and Xiu’s horns could probably poke an eye…if someone were to startle him enough…

Feeling a little overwhelmed, the white frei floated a little closer to Rivener. “Shall we…continue our tour?” Xiu asked over the noise. “As flattering as this is, we aren’t making any progress,”

Upon hearing this, the crowd surged forward in an almost desperate attempt to squeeze a last picture out of the two floating cosplayers…

Rivener was having a blast. Who knew that he'd enjoy being in FRONT of a camera lens about as much as he enjoyed being behind it? Riv took as many pictures as he gave, forcing a copy of each one people requested of himself or Xiu, and getting some of others all alone to boot. The Scorpion wore a broad grin the whole time, one that he forced to turn into something more honeyed and mellow; he had a part to play, after all.

The questions asked of both Raevans weren't an annoyance so much as a formality. Rivener answered off-hand while he did other things, unconcerned with people's reactions. Xiu seemed to take it a little more seriously, telling them they were Raevans even though it wasn't from any anime or game they might know. The question about Xiu's horns poking someone's eye out actually made Rivener laugh; he doubted the white frei would ever hurt a fly.

Eventually Xiu seemed to have had enough of this, floating closer to Riv and mentioning softly that they might want to continue the tour. That was like waving a red flag in front of a bull: the crowd doubled its loud cacophony and its random flashes, talking and taking pictures in a last-ditch attempt to immortalize the two cosplayers. Riv snickered and lifted a hand, waving to people. "Thanks for all the attention, but we'd like to enjoy the rest of the convention now, please." As expected, only half the crowd agreed to leave them alone, walking off to do other things. Riv just floated away from the other half, glaring at them pointedly to warn them not to follow.

"...We might get accosted still, but hopefully the worst is over. -Wow, I got 126 pictures!" Riv was glancing at his camera, looking at the tally. "Nice! So, what do you want to go see? Hm, let's see. The schedule says there's a anime screening right now; want to go check it out? Maybe it'll make it clearer." Riv hadn't remembered to keep someone around to ask all these questions. The two Raevans were both smart, they could figure this out on their own!

“I…certainly hope so…,” replied Xiu quietly as he eyed the entrance to the anime convention hall with some apprehension. “There seem to be…even more people in there Rivener and-,”

Xiu stopped and stared as a human male (rather on the heavy end of the scale) walked past in something akin to a metal armor that was obviously made for the female physique. Disturbed, Xiu shook his head a couple of times to clear the horrible image from his mind.



Hairy arms and stubble on his chin.


Wobbly stomach



Excessively hairy legs sticking out from an overly short and tight skirt

!!!

W-Was that person looking at them?


“And umm…that is a lot of pictures, Rivener,” said Xiu hastily resuming his conversation lest he be forced to bear with the horror that wouldn’t leave. “What do you plan to do with them?”

“And yes, the anime screening sounds like a good place as any to be,” said Xiu a little too quickly. Reaching out, the white Frei took the Sigel by the hand and began pulling Rivener to where there were many people walking about. If what Xiu had seen had been correct, it looked as though the other was planning on approaching them and; although it was a rather mean thought, Xiu could not….bear the thought of having to take a photo with said person.

Thankfully (very thankfully!), Rivener had not spotted the fat-man-in-a-girl-suit. If he had, Riv's laughter and insults might have both scarred the man for life and gotten Riv kicked out of the convention for overly cruel behavior. As it was, the Sigel simply grinned as he looked through his pictures, snickering from time to time as he nodded absently to Xiu's comments about the convention screening room being full of people.

"Ah!" the Scorpion suddenly exclaimed as he felt himself pulled forward, Xiu's hand grabbing his and tugging him to the screening room. "Okay, okay, jeez, don't get your ribbon in a knot. What's the big hurry anyway, you don't want to miss it? Or you wanna get good seats? Oh, I bet we can get some of the best seats." Riv smirked, a new challenge in mind. He shoved the camera into his pocket and followed eagerly into the screening room.

There were indeed a ton of people in here, most standing around talking before the show was slated to start. Many of them smiled over at them and waved slightly. Riv could remember a few from the pictures earlier; what gave them the right to suddenly be so friendly, though? One picture and suddenly they're on a Wave-Hello basis? Shrugging this off, deciding to ignore most, Riv turned towards the front of the room, peering at the rows of hastily-aligned folding chairs.

"Hn, cheap seating... You wanna sit at the front? I bet we can get places right up there, we just have to look cool and people will get out of our way. What do you think?" Riv grinned, peering over at Xiu with fangs glinting in the light. Man, Riv LOVED controlling crowds!

Xiu nodded distractedly as the Sigel tried to guess at the reason for his haste. Not wanting to alarm the Sigel (Xiu figured that even Sigels could be alarmed, given proper stimuli), Xiu cast a glance into the room. There seemed to be a couple of seats still available and some of the were even… in a dark no-one-ever-looks-at corner! Wonderful!

“There, let’s have those,” said Xiu pointing to a dismally secluded area of the room. “We can ummm…watch the screening peacefully there…,” finished Xiu lamely with a slight droop of his wings realizing that Rivener would probably think him odd. No one in their right mind would choose such a pathetic sitting as those.

A glance behind however, made Xiu pull Rivener away from the entrance and towards the poorly lighted sitting.

----------------------------

“Where are they?” the person thought as he gave his massive belly a scratch, causing a couple of visitors to cringe. “They entered this room right?”

Waddling towards the entrance, the stranger peered in with a pair of weak beady eyes. He must have their pictures! They were probably hired cosplayers promoting the upcoming season’s hit game or something and…being the true gamer that he was, he was going to have his photos with them! Already he could see himself grinning dashingly as he had his arms over the two characters as the cameras flash. It was a bugger to have decided to cosplay as ‘Warrior Maiden’ but perhaps they would agree to look lovestruck by his sheer awsomeness?

The thought pleased the stranger as he waddled into the screening room.
PostPosted: Mon Aug 24, 2009 8:48 pm


Rivener all but pouted as Xiu pointed out seats as far away from the front as humanly possible, in a dimly-lit corner to boot, where no one could see them. Sighing, the Sigel rolled his eyes and let himself be pulled forward to the sub-par seating. With a decidedly annoyed frown Riv crossed his arms and flopped down in the seat, heaving another dramatic sigh.

"We better see the show well from here, Xiu," the Scorpion warned, "or I'm not letting you pick seats anymore." It was a weak threat; who knew how many other times they'd be needing to sit in a screening?

With a quick glance around, Riv noticed that people were slowly migrating to their seats. They must be close to starting this show. What was it again? Flipping open the program, Riv found the schedule. "Naruto. ...Hn. I hope it's good."

Rivener was obviously displeased but bearing with it rather well, considering. Xiu floated and sat beside the Scropion Sigel. Crossing his arms over his chest, Xiu gave a glance at the screen. The show was already starting but the frei could already tell that they’d be lucky if they were able to make anything out. Shifting his wings a little, Xiu gave a glance around the room; blue eyes searching to see if that man-woman thing was there.

He was!

The frei’s heart gave a horrified leap, threatening to burst out of him.

Calm down… thought Xiu as he distracted clasped his hands together. You are probably overreacting. This is a screening and…people were supposed to watch it

At the sight of the man glancing around however, Xiu sank a little lower in his seat; achieving this wonderfully as the frei was lacking a body to hinder him. Xiu wished that his and Rivener’s horns didn’t stand out so much…

--------------------------

The room had dimmed and…there were no signs of those cosplayers. Puffy lips streak with cheap lipstick pouted causing a couple of guys sitting beside him to inch away. He was sure they had not left the room.

Already he was getting impatient, having heard that a couple of visitors had already gotten photographs of them and like a true fanboy, the stranger listened as the people described the two…’Raevans’ were they?

It seemed like the bigger of the two was the one in control while the other…Xiu, was it? was happy to listen to what the other had to say. This was interesting. Was this some sort of Shoujo game then? Not really his cup of tea but it’d make for a suitable picture. After all, he was magical girl “Warrior Maiden” wasn’t he? The character whom any sensible guy would fall for?
PostPosted: Mon Aug 24, 2009 9:18 pm


Rivener glowered at the screen, the majority of the lower half hidden behind people's heads. Riv grit his teeth and sat a little higher to get a good view, glancing at Xiu accusingly for an instant.

The Scorpion's expression turned to surprise as he saw how the white frei was basically cowering in his seat. "Wha-"

"SH!" someone shushed from nearby, earning an outraged glare from the Scorpion. Growling, Riv settled in for now. Whatever Xiu was afraid of, it wasn't something jumping out at them right now... Riv could ask him after the show was over.

Riv and Xiu sat in relative peace throughout the twenty-some minutes the show lasted. Riv was nowhere closer to knowing what "anime" was, exactly. He'd seen stuff like this on TV, and it looked like cartoons. He couldn't really pinpoint what made this "anime" as opposed to, like... Uhm... Hunh. Riv didn't know which cartoons WEREN'T anime!

"It was pretty cool," Riv said as the lights came back on and people began filing out. "I like the fights, it was really well-done. ...So, what's got you so shaken, anyway?"


Unknown to Riv as he led Xiu out of the room, a portly man-woman had taken up station near the doors, waiting to spot the two "raevans" as they left the screening room...

“ Yes, it was…,” said Xiu distractedly. He had not seen much of the show but had heard the ‘oohs’ and ‘aahs’ of the crowds followed by some clashing of weapons and shouting in Japanese.

Flaring his wings, Xiu gave Rivener a glance. “Umm…well…there is this human…,” said Xiu feeling sheepish.

--------------------

He had seen the older cosplayer sometime during the Great Ninja Battle and guessed that the other would not be too far away but as he was sitting across the room, the stranger could not approach them; much to his annoyance.

However, as soon as the screening was coming to an end, the stranger had gotten up and (with a few stomping of toes) waddled towards the exit with anticipation clearly written across his face. Throughout the screening, his mind was not on the show but rather what poses he would take with these ‘Raevans’ and now that he was waiting for them to emerge, he had formed the perfect image in mind!

The older one he would take a picture with him “The Magical Warrior Maiden” holding onto the raevan’s collar in a superior looking mode while the raevan would look longingly at him. His spine tingled with anticipation.

As for the white one, well, he had not really thought about how he’d want him to pose. Perhaps if he requested that the being be nuzzling his neck while he pretended to be seduced? Oh! The fun! The stranger felt another tingle down his spine.

Ah, they were coming! Oh boy, oh boy!


--------------------------

“Rivener…,” said Xiu tugging onto the Sigel’s arm as the feeling of apprehension grew upon them nearing the exit. “L-Let’s find another exit. Please?”


---------------------

What? The other wanted to leave through another exit? What was this?

Frowning, the man waddled forward, pushing the last of the viewers aside and before anyone could say anything, the man-woman-thing had shoved a camera at a random stranger, hugged the terrified Xiu in what he thought was a winning smile, placed an arm around Rivener’s neck and beckoned for the startled photographer to take their photos.
PostPosted: Tue Aug 25, 2009 7:36 am


Rivener glanced over at Xiu when the white frei began hesitantly explaining that his fear was over some strange human. The Scorpion raised an eyebrow, wondering how anyone in this harmless conglomeration of weirdos might be construed as "threatening" to anyone.

Before Xiu could even get anywhere in his explanation, however, the frei suddenly grabbed Riv's arm and tugged, begging to find a different exit. "What? Why?" Riv demanded, frowning. "I don't think there IS another exit, everyone's using this one single door! What's the matter with you any-WAH?"

Suddenly there was something large barreling towards them, shoving something in the hands of a nearby person and then grabbing both Raevans in forced hugs.

Rivener's reaction might have been confused and baffled at first, but the minute that meaty arm curled around his neck the Sigel's whole body tensed and he bared his fangs, half-growling and half-hissing. His wings spread wide threateningly and he stabbed one stinger into the man's fat neck, injecting a sickness venom just before he grabbed the man's arm and wrenched himself free.

"What the ******** do you think you're doing?!"
Riv asked with furiously flashing eyes, his strong grip holding the fat arm hostage and yanking the man away from Xiu as well.

FLASH when the camera, immortalizing the Fat Magical Girl's green-turning face.

Rivener looked the man up and down then, blinking. What the hell was THIS? After a moment of stunned silence Rivener burst out laughing, letting go of the man and backing away to Xiu's side. "OH man! What the hell are you dressed as?! You look ******** STUPID! Hahahahah! Like a piece of meat wrapped too tightly with twine! You're the ugliest damned girl I ever saw! Wow, did you actually think it was a GOOD IDEA to dress like that?!" Clutching at his stomach, Rivener was laughing so hard he nearly bent over. His anger wasn't forgotten though, fueling the insults with barely-hidden derision. Slowly Rivener's laughing abated, leaving him smirking haughtily. "Go back to your mother's basement, you crazy freak! And if you try to touch me or my friend again without our permission, I will seriously HURT you. You understand?"

Xiu’s fear was justified as he felt the meaty arm wrap around him, dragging him down with his massive weight. With a startled cry, the white frei instinctively flared his stone grey wings wide, missing the weird stranger’s meaty appendage by an inch or so. The human-thing seemed to have taken for granted that they’d be willing to have a photograph with him and by the looks that he was giving them, ‘no’ was probably not an option.

Rivener however, had solved the problem remarkably well. Stabbing the guy in the neck with a toxin of sorts, the Sigel had rendered him harmless enough to be pulled away and was holding onto the human as though he was nothing more than a sack of meat which…incidentally enough, was what he was. Backing away from the odd human, Xiu flared and folded his wings a couple of times, breathing deeply as he tried to calm his shaken nerves. Rivener however, was laughing…and hurling abuses at the stricken human. Xiu felt a pang of pity for the man-thing as he stood there in all of his fleshy glory listening to the insults of the red Sigel. It wasn’t his fault he was…the way he is, was it? Xiu was unsure and looked away; not wanting to be part of the jeering crowd that was now gathering but also not wanting to stand up for the human.


-----------------------------------
The man blinked, trying to steady himself as well make out what the one called ‘Rivener’ was saying to him. It was all a blur…he remember hugging the raevans, then a sharp pain in his neck, and now this. Feeling rather sick, the man wobbled unsteadily on his large elephantine legs and stared stupidly back at the laughing Sigel and the crowd of other cosplayers around.

Then, it started.

With a loud gasp, the obese male-female-thing clutched at his chest and began wheezing as the world swam. He was asthmatic at best and allergic to a wide variety of poison, including stings. Wobbling shakily, the human reached out to someone, anyone, for help.

--------------------------------
The human was behaving oddly. Xiu tilted his head as the human began rasping in short, loud breaths and his eyes had taken on a rather glazed look. Then, the human began clutching at empty air as legs supporting a body mass that was unnatural began to give way…

In an instant, Xiu found himself holding onto the guy’ arm and looking up at the bewildered crowd. Frowning, Xiu tried to heft the heavy human up but it was a losing battle, the human was…just.too.heavy.

“He needs a doctor!” said Xiu turning to a girl in a cat cosplay. “Call for one! Please!”
PostPosted: Tue Aug 25, 2009 8:41 am


Rivener's haughty smirk was quickly wiped off his face as the fat man began wheezing and gasping, clutching at his chest like that. What-... Rivener hadn't stung him with a strong muscle-paralysis poison by accident, had he? One that would stop that man's lungs or heart? ...No, it was just a sickness-inducing toxin. Why then was this guy acting like that?

Oh, Riv thought with a sneer. He must be faking. Trying to get us to come nearer or something. Crossing his arms, Rivener flared his wings defiantly and glared. In the next instant however, Xiu was at the man's side trying to hold him up. The Sigel flinched forward to help his kin but still glared at the human with distrust... Was he still faking? What the hell was going on? Was he having a heart attack?

"Ngh, dammit," Riv grumbled, moving to the fat guy's other side and grabbing onto a meaty arm again, lifting the human's girth and needing a surprisingly large amount of effort to accomplish this. The guy was HEAVY! "Do we find him a ******** bench or something to sit on?" Riv asked Xiu, looking to the white frei for directions.


Meanwhile, the cat girl and a few others had dashed off in search of convention staff, hoping to find some kind of medic in the place. A PA announcement rang out above them: "If there is a doctor or paramedic in the building, please report to the West lobby help desk. Please report to the West lobby help desk."

In his spasm, the man had grabbed onto Xiu’s horn and the frei winced at this. It hurt but this was not the time to worry about it. Right now, what was important was that the human should be attended to. Thankfully, Rivener had come forward and was now supporting most of the weight of the gasping human. At Rivener’s suggestion, Xiu nodded. “Over there,” said Xiu pointing to a relatively broad low bench. “We shall have him rest there,”

--------------------

His breathing was not getting any easier and the man’s eyes watered as he felt himself being led to a low bench. Plopping down clumsily onto the wooden bench’s surface, the man continued to wheeze and pant. Overhead, the speakers were requesting that the medical staff be present instantly. Instantly however could not be soon enough. Already the man was feeling weak and just as he was about to black out, he felt a hand holding onto his.

“Hang in there,” said Xiu quietly as he gave the stricken human’s hand a reassuring squeeze. “Help will come but until then, you must hold on,”

The man nodded but his breaths were coming in short gasps now. Frightened eyes stared out from under a meaty face and sweaty hands clasps onto hands that felt a little too smooth for the average human. That and the fact that the being’s horn did not come falling off registered just one thing in the human’s deoxygenated mind. They weren’t human
PostPosted: Tue Aug 25, 2009 9:14 am


Riv was glad to drop the human onto that bench, no longer needing to hold him up. He smelled of ham or something, it was not pleasant to be around. The Scorpion would have been content to just move away after that, let the humans deal with this wheezing pile of flesh, but Xiu was now "kneeling" at the guy's side, offering his hand in comfort.

Rivener rolled his eyes and let out a sigh. "Okay fine," he groaned. Looking more than a little annoyed, Rivener stayed near and summoned up an antidote for his sickness poison. He couldn't be sure that innocent little p***k from earlier was causing all this, but at the very least he could remove the sickness from the man's discomfort. ...To be honest, Rivener was more worried about traces of poison being found in the guy if he were to kick the bucket. The last thing Rivener needed was another assault charge (even if the last one had been "taken care of" by Ethan Blake).

The Scorpion positioned himself just so, hiding one of his wings from view before it lowered down to sting into the man's puffy red neck. The anti-venom would work its way through the body and kill the sickness-poison, but it would perhaps be too late to undo any other symptoms. At the very least Fat Magical Man would no longer feel queasy on top of whatever else.

There was a commotion through the crowd, and Rivener floated up higher to see what it was. "Ah, some humans are coming this way. Hopefully one of them's a doctor. Hold on, fat guy."

Xiu nodded at Rivener’s words. “See? You will be alright soon,” said Xiu to the distressed human; not missing the fact that the Sigel had also injected something into the human when he was hovering near the obese man. “After that, you go home and rest, okay?”

“Ha….haa….kaaay….,” wheezed the man before a sudden wave of giddiness washed over him. Lurching forward, the man heaved, covering the unfortunate Rivener with the morning’s breakfast.

“Oh my…,” exclaimed Xiu with silent horror.
