The Madness (An insane roleplay)

Jace looked around the room, assessing the people there. He caught a glimpse of a white haired guy, looking frail and nervous, at the serving table. His eyebrows raised as he saw the odd guy bickering around. His loud voice filled the room, and they had just started on a conversation with the white haired kid. His brows furrowed.

Yeah, those two idiots will get Flo nervous.

He was itching to see Flo’s reactions to others. He turned back around to find himself gazing into Flo’s eyes. For a guy who can’t speak right, his eyes told quite a lot. He let out an exasperated sigh and raised his eyebrows in a shrug, leaving his gaze resilient, rested on his experiment. Trying his best, he silently eyed him:

You pull yourself together and advance, poor shrimp.

His cold, thin fingers slid across the table and took his left wrist, measuring his pulse briefly. After seemingly being happy with what he felt, he grabbed his notebook, and stood up, the chair slicing the cold cafeteria air like a knife screeching on glass. A smirk on his face, he murmured:
“Now Flo, I want you to collect a snack for yourself. Do not show the others your telekinesis, but if you need it to regulate that migraine of yours, move subtle things, like the paper shreds on this dirty floor. I will be in the corner watching. Try communicating with the guys. I’ll give you a board to write on later. Try the white haired boy, and don’t be intimidated by that other dude.”

So, little monster? Overwhelmed of the world yet?

Jace’s visage turned into one of indifferent boredom, not even paying attention to Flo’s flinching at the striking lights. Then, a smirk spread on his face. If you’re a little monster, then what are we? Fucking humans. Call yourself that, and then prove that even demons are more human than you.

The world will destroy you, little monster.

Suddenly, his attention snapped back to Flo. Why was he flinching so much? His gaze glided up to the piercing lights.

Damn, yes. The lights suck the very soul out of you.

“Flo? Hold on there, boy. You’ll get something in a second.”

He slowed his pace and supported Flo with his left arm, holding up as if he were a numb sack of potatoes. “I think you might be hungry. That could get you more comfortable. Meanwhile, close your eyes and let me lead you so the lights don’t bother you so much.”

He tried smiling, but it came across as an awfully pathetic, consoling sigh. He led him through the bleak hallways, pushing back the claustrophobia. The thought of what the hell he was doing only made it worse. But he didn’t feel guilty. No, it wasn’t guilt. He was, diagnosed, afterall… by his own friends, family…

Fucking Psychopath.

Think you’re cool, sociopath?

All because the death of her was too much. Did that make him the monster.
Does that make you a monster, Flo?

He entered the cafeteria and looked around, searching for other people.

My apologies :/ shitload of work to do this week, but that will get better

The Madness (An insane roleplay)

Jace looked at Flo’s shocked face.

D’oh Poor Baby.

His hand slid to Flo’s shoulder as he stood up, pressing firmly onto his skin… telling him to stay firm and strong.
“That’s it, boy. Firm enough for my expectations. This is completely normal,” his gaze glided to the needles still in his arm. “Oh dear, yes.” He walked over to the desk, getting necessary equipment. His walking style was slouchy, casual. A part of his body seemed to sag, like something that was sad and hopeless. Confident but broken. Jace never felt it; he was oblivious to the features of his broken self poking outwards. The only thing that accounted for his poker face was his grin, the grin that was boasting confidence and his cunning demise. That which he showed as his slender figure, holding what looked like tissues and an ointment, turned around to look back at Flo.
“So how do you feel about meeting those new people?” he asked, to avert from the minute pain Flo would feel as he slid the needles out, pressing Flo’s fingers onto the punctured skin for pressure. Then he looked up at him questioningly.
“Woops… I forgot you don’t really like speaking. Can you write?”

Jace stood back up and gestured him to follow him as he opened the doors that led out towards the doorway. He didn’t think Flo would be trouble, but he kept necessary equipment in his hazmat suit in case he should go… Berserk.

Because we’re cultivating monsters, not recognizing our own race. But maybe that’s just because we’re not human either. What would you become, young man?

The Madness (An insane roleplay)

As he saw the tube making a sharp turn right in front of Flo’s face, his face contorted into one of utter shock and he froze in midair.

So this is a scientific breakthrough, eh?

Putting his hands, casually, back into his pockets, he strolled down to where the tube had shattered on the wall.

“Fascinating, Flo. See what ‘refinement’ meant now?”

His view focused once again on Flo as his attentive gaze remained firm while he walked back to Flo. He certainly didn’t seem so tortured anymore. Did using the telekinesis make the headache better?

Jesus, Flo. You’re like something shipped right out of a marvel comic.”

He grinned. The poor confused boy.

“Now everything will be clearer in a few minutes. But right now, I need to show you that you’re not alone. Moral support, aye?”

It was about time they go to the common room anyway; it was already late. He reached out to him with a rough, strong hand.

“Can you stand?”

The Madness (An insane roleplay)

Boy am I happy rpguild is working again

The Madness (An insane roleplay)

A proud smile rushed over Jace’s lips as he heard Flo pronounce the word after seemingly much frustration. His hands reached out, gently massaging Flo above his ears on both sides, trying to soothe the pain.

“There’s a good boy, Flo! You’re pronunciation is as good as anyone’s. No need to be frustrated there, buddy,” his calm, collected voice came with a slightly satisfied undertone. “Now this next part doesn’t require talking, I’m going to try get your mind into focus. A mental game,” he continued, seeing his still underlying annoyance at the idea of his being refined.

An experiment on an experiment. You poor kid.

Jace shuffled slightly to the right, allowing Flo’s view to settle on a test tube laying on the table a few meters away. Then he knelt down in front of Flo, allowing him to look down on Jace.

Maybe that’ll make me seem less intimidating.

“By refined, Flo, I am referring to the fact that we gave you a certain ability no other human has, to see how well you would deal with it… kind of like a superpower, eh? It’s harmless, really.”

I am totally breaking the world record for lying this month.

“My guess is that your mind is a bit befuddled by all that’s going on inside, and that’s why we need a little jolt to bring it all back into place. Now I want you to focus on that test tube laying right there, Flo. Focus on it as much as you can, despite the migraine.”

Jace started walking towards the table. Flo’s limbs would be too numb to react to sudden motions right now. That leaves the only thing still awake and alert from the experimental processes… his mind.

“I want you to feel that test tube, engulf its existence, feel a connection...”

He picked up the test tube.

“And now…”

A grin of curiosity spread across his lips.

“Show me your reflexes.”

With that, he flung the test tube right towards Flo at high speed. This is his test. If all goes according to plan and studies, this should be breathtaking… and help his migraine a bit, too.

The Madness (An insane roleplay)

Jace noticed Flo’s distressed look as he pronounced the word ‘refined’. His face contorted into that of worry. “Oh dear, I...” Jace began, unsure of how to explain.

Shit… what if that hurt his feelings

“In this new age, refining humans is kinda a way of letting the human race progress. It doesn’t really have a disadvantage, now.”

Oho Jace. Liar Liar Pants on Fire…

Amusedly watching Flo’s confused and flustered face as he tries to describe his headache, Jace leans in towards him, placing a warm hand on his forehead.
He chuckled.

“That sounds like one of those explosions you see in Spongebob,” he remarked, a creepy glint in his eye that disappeared in seconds.

“But I’d associate that with extreme pain and throbbing, something we can Migraines, Flo. Can you repeat that after me? Mi-Grai-Nes”

dark eyes were curiously scouring Flo’s complexion by now, analyzing his test subject. The most reckless idea came to mind. Should I?

Telekinesis is cool, afterall.

The Madness (An insane roleplay)

Jace examined Flo curiously as he came closer. Yep, he looked calmer. He really hoped that he would be able to connect with Flo, and so far (if he wasn’t too far off) he was doing a good job.

Treat them like they would live, not like they would die, Jace.

Those words. Those soft, caring words. He had forgotten how to feel, but that advice made more sense than most things did. Then he noticed that Flo was trying to stand up in reaction to his outstretched hands. He waved them nervously.

“No, no. I just want to examine you. You look a bit pale.”

Placing his hand on Flo’s forehead, he felt for heat, for vibrations, anything that could give a clue. It did seem like a headache, an awfully bad one. But what was to be expected from an inhuman experiment like that?

They’re just test subjects. Just test subjects. Nothing of value.

He looked so weak and stressed.

Just Test Subjects.

“We’ll call you Flo then.”

Test.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you Flo.”

Subjects.

Then he glimpsed the gun motion that Flo made. Personally, he was proud that Flo could manage to say so much without the difficulty of speaking backwards, like a few minutes ago.

Flo..er..Experiment #324 showing promising improvement.

Now what was he trying to signal? Oh! Suicide? Jace let out a low, nervous laugh.
“Nope. You’re still alive and well. You’ve just been… refined.”

[i]And possibly in a state worse than death, Pal.

But I guess we’ll be able to see about that later.

A pressing theory was that Flo’s headaches and stress came from that little…refinement. He really wanted to try it out. But he couldn’t do that too soon. Anyways, he had to get him fit for Common Room.

“Can you describe the pain you feel?”

The Madness (An insane roleplay)

Yep ^^ Dragons are badass. Yup, as soon as I get a better picture of an rp character of mine, imma change it

but yeah, rp guild seems to be in its early stages so I think updates will come..
