5th Combo - [Video]

[redcladidealist]

[There's a frown on Lloyd's face as the video feed comes on, the kind of frown someone gets when they're facing a problem they haven't managed to figure out.]

During the last full moon, did anyone see anything strange? [He scratches his jaw unconsciously - is that a hint of fuzziness there?] I mean, strange lights or circles of mana on the ground. That kind of thing.

. . . With what's going on you're worried about something like that?

YOU AND YOUR TEMPTATIONS

Talk about a little facial hair first thing in the morning, huh bud?

[redcladidealist]

[Lloyd hasn't heard about any of the darker things going on of late. He really only pays scattered attention to the posts he gets on his Dreamberry. He tilts his head, giving Haseo a funny look. What's he talking about?]

Well, yeah. I mean, I want to get home. Don't you? Why? What happened?

I DO IT BECAUSE I LOVE YOU~

[redcladidealist]

[Lloyd shoots Zelos a look of mixed confusion and annoyance.] My hair isn't that bad, Zelos. Just because I haven't brushed it doesn't mean it's in my face.

OR YOU'RE JUST A FILTHY, FILTHY ENABLER B|

[You're going to mark his face with all of this facepalming, Lloyd. >:(] How about you try touching your chin and you'll see what I'm talkin' about.

H-HEY! I RESEMBLE THAT REMARK!

[redcladidealist]

What? [Now he's giving Zelos a really strange look. Still, he lifts a hand to his chin.

His gloved hand.]

I don't feel anything different.

WITH THE HAIR ON YOUR FACE, YES YOU DO~

[demonspear.livejournal.com]

Weeell maybe you can't because you have gloves on.

B|

[redcladidealist]

[Now it's Lloyd's turn to put a palm to his face.] There's nothing on my face, Zelos. If there was, it would have come off when I rubbed it.

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD /SMILES FOREVER

[Glaring at you now. >:(]

Would you just do it!

[redcladidealist]

[Lloyd sighs. Loudly. Zels, you are so demanding.] Fine. But I'm telling you whatever you thought you saw, it's probably already gone.

[He takes one glove off, then puts his hand to his jaw again.] See? Nothing but... [Wait... He rubs his chin. Now that he's paying attention, it does feel a little bit different. He rubs it again.] Huh?

[demonspear.livejournal.com]

[And now he grins. HOW DOES MANLYNESS FEEL, LLOYD?]

Told ya~

[redcladidealist]

N-no way! [Lloyd's eyes widen as he feels the soft, sparse hair on his chin. Suddenly the camera jolts as he takes off, heading straight for the bathroom. When he gets there, he leans over the counter to stare at himself in the mirror. If anything, his eyes widen further and he blurts out without thinking-]

Bear!

. . .Someone got murdered.

[redcladidealist]

[Lloyd feels like someone dumped a bucket of ice down his back.] What?! Who was it who died? Who killed them?

[demonspear.livejournal.com]

[Pffffft and now he's cracking up~ You sure as hell make him laugh, Lloyd. ♥]

[lethal-smile.livejournal.com]

It seems that people were hallucinating around that time. I saw strange things also, but nothing like what you've described.

[beats-zelos.livejournal.com]

...Uh, Lloyd?

[redcladidealist]

[Lloyd immediately flushes as his brain catches up with his mouth, and he jerks his eyes away from his reflection.] Sh-shut up, Zelos. I didn't mean it like that.

[redcladidealist]

Hm? Yeah, Sheena?

[redcladidealist]

Yeah, I heard about that, but that wasn't what I was asking about. I was just trying to see if anyone else had seen the Otherworldly Gate open up.

[demonspear.livejournal.com]

[Still laughing lmao. You're so funny, Lloyd~] Okay, okay. [And now he stops.] Facial hair is pretty manly, you know~

[redcladidealist]

[Suspicious frown.] Are you trying to say something about my manliness, Zelos?

[demonspear.livejournal.com]

Pft! Me? No, never!

[redcladidealist]

[HE CAN HEAR THAT SARCASM, YOU KNOW.]

If it's so manly, then why don't you have a beard or mustache?

[demonspear.livejournal.com]

Because I have long hair.
