Who: EVERYONE
What: 4TH WALL
When: JULY 8TH - JULY 14TH
Where: ALL OVER THE THOR
Warnings: MADNESS AND INSANITY!!!

×) Start a thread with your character - either one who's in game already, or one you're bringing in for the 4th wall event.
×) Put the character's name and their location in the subject line, and write a little about what they're doing in the body of the comment.
×) Rinse and repeat with as many characters as you want!
×) Comment around, thread, and have fun!


If you've got a thread going in the original log, by all means continue! But if you'd like to start a new thread, this is the place to do it! The goal here is to hold off the advent of Captcha for as long as possible in the first log, because it turns on automatically when a post hits 5,000 comments, and there's nothing we as mods can do to turn it off. 8(

ETA: Feel free to make up headcanon for your Loki bros! Ridiculous and hilarious histories are entirely encouraged!

Squall Leonhart || Final Fantasy 8 || Anywhere and Everywhere

[lionsrebellion]

[Right now, he'd rather just find a place to rest for a minute. Just getting used to being on one ship was enought to tire him out, and now there was another one with a whole new set of people.]

[Maybe if he searches carefully enough, he can find a private place to practice his gunblading techniques.]

shit, one of you is bad enough >]

[gotdreams]

[Sure ya can, but there's already a tall (handsome) blonde there, Hyperion unsheathed and slicing through the air. And his coat is whipping around rather majestically too, don't you think? Eh?

He hasn't been at it long, batting around at nothing was more boring than watching the chicken swat flies, good practice offered a little more resistance.]

[[ooc:he's from a point heading to Timber, hasn't met Edea or anything etc and I'm cool with pretty much any headcanon from their time on the Loki haha]]

Two is even better, tho.

[lionsrebellion]

[Oh, and here he had thought that he had found a peaceful spot.]

[There goes that idea.]

[But he does look up at the sound of the swishing of a familiar blade. Of course, when he got close enough, he could recognize Hyperion anywhere.]

[Now he's just standing there, waiting until Seifer is done to say something.]

.....

nope

[gotdreams]

[He doesn't know which Squall is standing there being completely socially awkward but really, did it matter? Either way he'd just get a whole bunch of "...." and >8|.

So he dgaf and keeps slicing through the air (enjoy the show), rather agile despite his size, shifting his weight from foot to foot as he moved. But you already knew that Squall, you've watched him kick your ass plenty of times.

Eventually though he gets a little bored of the feeling of assuredly narrowed unamused eyes watching him (but he did enjoy making the other watch him for awhile in uncomfortable silence) so he turned, pointing Hyperion Squall's way.]

Whatta ya want, Leonhart?

yis.

[lionsrebellion]

[Still has his srs bsns face on, no matter how long he's left to stand there awkwardly watching Seifer practice with his gunblade. Nothing can take away his srs bsns fais.]

[Though, finally being acknowledge does make it a little less awkward.]

...Just watching your technique. [A pause.] Something wrong with that?

not unless there's a sandwich i mean wat

[gotdreams]

See anythin' ya like?

[Smuggy McSmugerson here, but that was just how he dealt with Squall, all the way back in Garden and now here, where all the little SeeD kids seemed to fancy him a bad guy.

Just gave him more reason to fuck with them, mostly. Without a sorceress his dreams were put on hold... or rather- he was looking for something bigger to occupy his time. Just hadn't found it yet.

But pressing buttons and pissing Squall off was about the only way to get him to react, and since he was the only other gunblade specialist Seifer didn't have much choice but to go to him for some dueling practice.

The guy still couldn't help but hold onto his blade with both hands like it might fly off the second he tried to actually do anything. What a shame.]

Of course there's going to be a sandwich. Duh.

[lionsrebellion]

[SRS. BSNS. FAIS. But, doesn't consider him a bad guy yet. Just a guy that didn't pass his exam because he abandoned his team. It's enough for Squall to be disappointed with him, but not into thinking that he's an evil, bad guy.]

...Your footwork could use some improvement. And you tend to lean to the right when you parry. So, no. Nothing I like. [Still in that flat, monotone voice. No humor in his voice at all. He's serious.]

Well that might be okay then

[gotdreams]

[God Squall you're such a little shit. His eyes narrow for a moment, annoyed, but then his head tilts back and Seifer starts to laugh.

Never ask Leonhart for an opinion if you didn't really want to hear it.]

I don't think the air gave a shit how I moved while I was hitting it. The hell does it matter?

[He doesn't believe you and his moves were fine.]

It's more than okay. And, of course, FF8 battle music comes on as I'm typing this :'D

[lionsrebellion]

[Nope, he'll always point out your flaws, no matter who or what you're fighting. Just in his nature to be critical.]

...Even in practice, honing your skills is critical. Any wrong move could mean disaster.

...Even against the air.

lmao

[gotdreams]

[Rude.

Seifer does at least consider that for a few moments- despite his tendency to blow others off, believing his way to be the only way, there was enough respect for Squall to at least listen when it came to their gunblades.

Not much. Just a little. But he'd make note of it anyway. Whether he'd really listen after waving it off though was another matter...]

Yeah I'll remember that when I start feelin' threatened by air.

[Dismissive.]

Re: lmao

[lionsrebellion]

[You never know, Seifer. The air can be pretty dangerous.]

[Oh well, never mind. He's just going to ignore you now, to practice his own technique. No sense in getting rusty while the ship is docked. He pulls out his own gunblade, Revolver, intent on practicing. Without even thinking about it, he just goes into practiced moves, honed and perfected without any mistakes. Besides still using both hands.]

[gotdreams]

[Out here on either ship that was probably a good point. he still didn't care, he'd kick the airs ass!

He'll break you of that shitty habit one day but for now he just watched, Hyperion lifted, the blade bobbing up and down behind him as he tapped the hilt against his shoulder. No smart ass commentary this time, only an unimpressed snort each time he thought Squall's footwork wasn't all that great.

Eventually though being ignored and not having anyone's attention gets to him and with a bit of a cocky grin:]

Wanna go at it?

[One day he'll probably regret slipping in suggestive lines, even if he's pretty sure they go completely over Squall's head anyway.]

[lionsrebellion]

[Oh yeah. Most of that stuff does go over his head. And, hey, they both have their gunblades out. Why not use them?]

[Yeah, that didn't sound sexual at all...Not in the least. He turns around, facing Seifer with Revolver pointed at him, his stance saying that he was ready for battle. Maybe he could show him that he was right-leaning when he was fighting. Just to prove a point.]

If you can handle it.

Rinoa approves of this 2 Squalls thing!

[urgonnalikeme]

[And along comes a Rinoa.]

There you are! I was thinking we should probably check out the rest of the ship together. [She counts off on her fingers.] I've seen Selphie and Seifer... but I haven't ran into Irvine yet. Have you?

It needs to happen, totally.

[lionsrebellion]

[...And he just stands there, totally confused. Did... this woman know him somehow? She looks like that one girl that danced with him at the graduation ceremony since that was the time frame he was picked up from. Right before he had that mission in Timber]

[And, she knew Selphie and Seifer, but who the hell is Irvine? A friend of hers, maybe? Proceed with the head tilt of confusion.]

...Do... I know you?

[urgonnalikeme]

[She waves a hand, looking away from him with a, PLEASE BOY DON"T EVEN TRY IT, sort of expression.]

Good try, but that isn't going to work with me, Squall. Come on. [She waves for him to follow before she starts walking away.]

[lionsrebellion]

[No, he's seriously confused here. Whose this woman think she is to order him around? It makes him a tad bit suspicious.]

...No. I want to know how you know me, let alone my name. [Srs. Bsns. Fais. He's not playing around, Rinny.]

AND WHAT IS THIS BUSINESS ABOUT A SANDWICH. I SEE YOU BOYS UP THERE

[urgonnalikeme]

[She turns around. Hands on her hips. Eyes narrowing on him.]

You have the weirdest sense of humor. If you don't want to find Irvine you can just do what you always do... [She folds her arms, lowers her head and a series expression settles on her face as she goes into full-out Squall imitation mode.] Whatever, Rinoa. I have more important things to do. Like polish my gunblade and be a grump all day long. [Okay so she improvised a lot. But you get the point.]

/whistles innocently

[lionsrebellion]

[He frowns. He's still incredibly confused, and yet this woman acts as if she knows him. Still suspicious of you, Rinny.]

I don't know who this... Irvine is. ...And I have more things to do with my day than just... polish my gunblade. [Well, that didn't sound dirty ...at all.]

...Tell me who you are.

:[ I DEMAND SANDWICHES

[urgonnalikeme]

[For a short time Rinoa is silent and stares at him, starting to become confused as well. She wasn't dense enough to not pick up on the fact that he is being series, and it takes her a while to finally put two and two together.]

You... don't know who I am?

[And of course Rinoa finally recalls that Selphie had mentioned that there was a Squall on the Loki ship. Why had she not realized that she would possibly run into him.]

[lionsrebellion]

...No. [Cold and indifferent he may have been, but at least he's honest.]

You... look like a woman that danced with me at the SeeD graduation party. [She was a bit annoying then, but relatively harmless. Even if she did pull him out of his corner.]

[urgonnalikeme]

[ANNOYING? Pff. Whatever, dude, you were all into this and you know it!]

The...

[Her voice draws off and she presses her lips together once she knows that she isn't going to say anything else. It's weird that she was relieved when she found out that Seifer was from about the same time, but with Squall... she feels disappointed. And her disappointment is very clear in her expression and how her shoulders sag a little.]

We danced together that night. But you really don't remember anything else after that? Timber? Trying to stop Sorceress Edea? Or the weeks that Garden was adrift at sea?

[lionsrebellion]

[No, he wanted to stay in his corner and drink the night away. And he had almost gotten to the point where he wouldn't be criticized for leaving the party 'too early.' Would have made his night just fine and dandy. And then he was pulled away from his corner. And he looked like an awkward moron on the dance floor.]

[A pause, but shakes his head. Nope. Doesn't remember any of that.]

...Timber sounds vaguely familiar. [But that's only because he's heard of the name, not the events that took place there.]

[urgonnalikeme]

[Well. This sucks. She frowns, moping for a little longer before she turns away slightly so he doesn't see her face.]

It wasn't that far from Balamb. I lived there.

[lionsrebellion]

[Maybe that's why it sounded familiar to him, because it was near Balamb. Maybe that's why she was at the graduation party, because she lived nearby?]

[Oh well. Not that it mattered while he was out here in space. It's not like he was going to go home soon anyway.]

...Do I... know you in the future? [Since Selphie told him that she was from the future. Was this woman in his future too?]
