GUYS, HEY, how's it going?
i'm dearly missing our fun and random RPs. and now with cloudy 2 out in the open we'll have plenty of new material! so i thought i'd just go ahead and start another RP!
i've been thinking about something fun and random and crazy?
a few guidelines? third person narrative, about 150 words minimum? be nice to each other? have fun!
okay, here goes nothing!
It was a quiet day at the C-Box' main room. Not a soul had appeared until now. The C-Box couch stood around lazily, as did the fridge. Nothing happened. After a while, nothing continued to happen.
Vhills entered, crashing through the ceiling for added effect. "HEY EVERYONE!" she exclaimed, swiftly landing on her feet, and dusted herself off. She looked up to realize two things.
First: Nobody was here, yet. Second: There were huge vines and lianes curling through broken c-box windows and littering the floor, EVERYWHERE. That was highly unusual. Vhills sniffed. It smelled like flowers and forest, and oddly enough she thought she smelled cheese? She climbed over various plants, fighting her way to the c-box-door which hadn't really been used ever. Usually the members of Flintlockwoodslab just appeared. No one had actually stepped outside before. Curiously, Vhills opened the door which creaked in protest from being used the first time.
GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASP!!!
There she was, in the middle of what seemed to be a luscious rainforest. The first rays of sunlight glinted through massive trees. a slight fog covered the floor, glistening in the morning sun. Vhills eyes grew large as she took a hesitant step forward, and started as a few marshmellows hopped over her feet. Vhills simply stared, stunned speechless. Then a huge grin spread on her face. The other's needed to see this!
((your turn, my friends! >D))

SMF was about to turn in for the night. It was too bad she had schoolwork tomorrow, she supposed. That usually gave her a reason to get up early. Oh well. Nighty night then! Of course, cue the portal. "AAAAaaaaa! Omphf!" She exclaimed, both very confused and very glad she still had her socks on. It took her a few seconds to take in her surroundings, but she was more than happy when she did. It was Swallow Falls! Practically her favorite place on earth! Then she looked over her right shoulder, to a grown-over structure, from which a very startled-yet-happy human had just appeared. Since sleep was pretty much out of the question (It was day here, after all), she decided to make friends. "Hi! My name is Shayna. What's yours?" (I don't recognize any of you on sight. Remind me of your user names in-RP, and you'll jog my RP-me's memory! )

was stuck in a hardened bubble it blinked. "That bubble making machine trapped me in here, y'all."

Fs5 entered through the c-box basement to notice the sudden vegetation. "Weird, how did this get here?" She then noticed the open door. She slowly walked towards it until she could get a better view of outside. "Woah!! The place looks amazing!" She started wandering around looking at everything.

SMF, having already made friends with Vhills, took notice of the new arrival. "Hello! How are you? And who are you, I guess." She said, with a smart-alec-type grin at that last part. She held out her hand in anticipation of a shaking. Meanwhile, a Tacodile-ling had approached, curious about the newcomers. It tilted its head, and moved in for a closer look. (You can D'aww or panic at the Tacodile-ling! The "mother" will be along shortly, I'm sure. )

Vhills couldn't wipe the grin off her face. It was okay though, there really was no reason not to grin. She wiggled her toes gleefully while twisting her head this and that way to take in and memorize every detail. Shayna, now standing with Vhills in the middle of the clearing, matched her happy expression, her giddyness about the situation radiating from every inch of her frame.
"I can't believe it, Shauna-!"
"Shayna."
"Oh right, sorry! Shayna! Can you believe this?!"
"Yeah right?! It's Swallow Falls for crying out loud!"
"With marshmellows!"
"WHEEEEEE!" both exclaimed and hopped around a little like your typical fangirls. NOT THAT THEY WERE TYPICAL FANGIRLS. It was totally cool. Nothing spectacular about suddenly being at the place of your dreams. Oh whatever, nobody would see this anyway.
"Woah!! The place looks amazing!" a voice from behind cried out. Shayna and Vhills froze and turned back to the totally run down and beaten up shack. 'This is the C-Box?!' Vhills thought. 'Whoa, all that ceiling crashing and flamethrowers surely took a toll to it ...' A girl had emerged and stared around in wonder, until her eyes finally met theirs. There was a beat of awkward silence between them in which the girl blinked, Shayna tilted her head questioningly and Vhills squinted.
"Uhm, hi!" The girl announced enthusiastically.
"Hi! Do I know you?" Shayna happily replied.
"... FS5? Is that you?" Vhills squinted a little more.
"Gurrrgle rrrrh!" a little something between them gurgled happily.
They all glanced downward. "Grrrrrrrp?" the Tacodile-ling gurred.
"D'AWWWWWWW!" the three girls melted at the cutest Tacodile-ling they had ever seen.
((--fangirls all over the place-- this RP is gonna be awesome!))

(( And you're pretty good handling me, I must say.)) While Shayna, Vhills, and FS5 continued squealing, the Tacodile-ling nuzzled against their legs. It wanted to play! Then, as the Narrative Laws of Comedy dictated, on came Mommy. THOOM[/b]... THOOM[/b] Shayna started at the noise, then looked around very quickly. Where was that sound coming from? And should she tell her friends to run? (The answer's presumably no. Whoever posts next gets the Tacodile!)

(Then I guess that's me! I'll also be playing as myself here, btw.) Gem was doing her usual website browsing she did every evening. Nothing seemed new on any of them, so she decided to log of for the night. That is, until a very similar portal had opened up right under her feet. "Ah!" she screamed. "WHAAAaaaaT THE-Ow!" It took her a moment to realize she had landed in some kind of brush. Another good look at her surroundings told her that this was a jungle. "Woah..." Said Gem. She looked around some more. The pretty colors and semi-luminescent plants kinda reminded her of... Oh... Gem had felt more excited then she had in a long time. Swallow Falls! She couldn't believe it. For a minute she thought she was dreaming, but then remembered that most of her dreams were never this exciting. A group of bouncing Lemins passed by her feet. Gem giggled. "Hey little guys." she said. The Lemins looked up at her, they seemed sort of...scared? "What's wrong? I'm not gonna hurt you." she said. There came a sound from behind her. THOOM... THOOMThe Lemins had already bounced away by the time Gem looked behind her. When she did, she was met with the sight of a very angry looking Tacodile. "Umm...nice..Taco-"ROOOAARRRRR!On that note, Gem knew it was time to RUN!!!

As another girl (this time, one she hadn't met yet) ran past them, the quickly forming CWACOM crew came to the same conclusion. " RUN, EVERYONE!" Shayna shouted, running after the new girl. The Tacodile-ling looked at them for a moment, then chose to run back to its mother. "Grrl-grr!" It exclaimed, happy to see its "parent".

As the girls ran away, Fs5 spots a tree. "Quick, climb the tree!!" She grabs the nearest branch and starts climbing. When everyone was out of Tacodile reach, they started to calm down. "That was close!" said Shayna. "It weird, though. How did we end up in Swallow Falls?" asked Fs5. "Maybe it's magic!" replied Vhills," Or science. I can't really tell. Oh! Licorice vine!" She picks a vine from the tree they're on and starts eating it.

Shayna laughed, then tried to rub out the various scratches she'd gained. She'd never been good at climbing trees. Then she looked down, and saw that the other girl was still running. "I'll go help her." She said. She did take a long look at Vhills' snack before leaving, though. Oh well. Maybe later. She thought, then escaped the confines of the tree to follow the other visitor.
The Tacodile, meanwhile, had left, though the noise it made wasn't much of a clue. Since it's "offspring" had returned, the Tacodile was quite content to go back to more familiar people. The strangers would deal with themselves.

„Whout!“ Vhills cried out, but the licorice vine she was chewing on made it hard to decipher. She swallowed as quick as she could. “WAIT! It always ends bad when people split up in movies!” she cried out again, but Shayna was out of sight already, vanished behind some various bushes. She stretched her arm into the general direction Shayna had run off to, in a painfully slow and melodramatic way. “NOOOoooooo ...”
FS5 rolled her eyes at Vhills' antics and gave her a playful nudge to the side. “Don’t overdo it!”
“Too late!” Vhills sat straight again and grinned. “Nyah, we aren’t inside a movie anyway.” She added, waving the licorice vine in her hand in a dismissive matter.
“Or aaaare we …?” FS5 said suspiciously. Both then stared out of the monitor very intensely, right into your, yes YOUR, very eyes. Then snapped out of it.
“By the way, the c-box fridge is out of milk”
“Oh? Should put that on our grocery list …”
Meanwhile Shayna was busy trying to catch up with the new arrival. “Wait up!” She shouted and gasped for breath, before adding “You are freakishly fast!” She turned briefly to check on the Tacodile and yelped before disappearing into the hole in the ground that just disappeared out of nowhere, swallowing her whole. “EEEEK!” Was all she managed to say to that. A shriek caught Gem’s attention in her running spree. She skidded to a halt and turned. She saw brown long hair, as it just vanished in the ground. In the distance she could still see the tacodile – then not anymore. She, too, just shrank into the ground. Gem frowned. “What is happeni—“ Aaand she was gone.
“Hm. Did you hear anything?” FS5 turned to Vhills.
“KYAHHH?!” Vhills replied as both of them got dragged downwards, including the giant tree.
The foodimal jungle stayed where it was, unimpressed.
((Hope I'm not too bold here!))

((This is great! Thank you for the dialogue, by the way. )) "OOomph!" Shayna said, lying on the even-more-unfamiliar ground. "This is the SECOND time I've fallen today. Don't I get a break? Or even some sleep?" She asked, exasperated more than anything. Of course, now she had to understand her new surroundings... or just sleep. "Ah, who careszz zzz..." Shayna said, giving up to exhaustion (and maybe a concussion).

"Ow!" Gem landed on the ground, this time even more confused then before. "What just happened?!" she said to no one in particular. Eventually she spotted some other people. One girl who was lying on the ground, and two more who were in a giant tree. Wait, giant tree? How did that get here? She decided not to question it and instead went over to the people. "Hi there! Uh...did any of you just...fall down here too?"

"Now isn't that great." Vhills deadpanned, arms crossed, as she dangled awkwardly inside the tree, upside down of course. It seemed like her left foot got tangled up with the licorice vine which now kept her from crashing down. Looking upwards (which was actually downwards) she could barely make out anything. Looking downwards though (which was actually upwards), she could see even less. The hole they fell through moments ago seemed to have closed on its own accord. How odd. It was rather dark down here, and the air around her felt cool and humid. The tree shifted a little and Vhills yelped, briefly startled. "FS5? You still with me?" she called out.
"I think so!" came the reply from somewhere above her.
"You okay??"
"... I think so! ... You?"
"FINE. Dangling, but fine!"
OOOOOMPHHHHHHH! The tree decided to tilt over completely. It did so while wildly rustling its leafs. The rustling eventually stopped, and after a few moments of silence FS5 broke through the leaf-y surface with a gasp.
"You still okay? Vhills??"
"Do I have a choice?" came the muffled reply.
"Uhm, no?"
"Then I am!" more rustling was heard as both FS5 and Vhills fought their way out of the tree. Then another yelp as FS5 stumbled, only barely managing not to fall.
"What? What happened?" Vhills called out, a little frantic.
"I ... I think I tripped over someone!" she gasped, kneeling down and squinting. Her eyes slowly got used to the darkness and she could make out the frame of a girl. "Hey." she said, while lightly and repeatedly slapping the girl on the cheeks. "You still alive?"
Vhills finally managed to make out some basic shapes of her surroundings. "Where are you people??" she asked exasparatedly, while she half blindly made her way through the branches, and started again as FS5's voice appeared from right in front of her. "I'm down here! That girl here, too. I think it's Shayna!"
"Hi there! Uh...did any of you just...fall down here too?" A voice from behind Vhills suddenly asked and Vhills whirled around with an awkward kung-fu stance which no one was actually able to see. "Who's there?!" she demanded to know. "... And yes, yes we did." she added as an afterthought.
Just then a bright light decided to barge in and temporarily blind everyone. The group gasped in surprise as they squeezed their eyes shut from the sudden brightness. Vhills noticed that it already got dimmer, though, and decided to slowly open her protesting eyes again. They soon grew wide though, as they processed their surroundings.
It was a cave, and it was huge. As in massively HUGE. The rough and bumpy walls were littered with a network of fresh green vines. They were everywhere, hanging from the ceiling, lingering on the walls and floor, all sporting thousands of little flowers. They looked a lot like very small lilys, besides the fact that they glowed in cool blue hues, the light pulsating slightly as it came off them in waves. low dripping noises echoed through out the place, as water dripped from massive stalactites which hung from the ceiling very high above. Taking a closer look at the walls, Vhills could see a lot of what looked like ancient cave paintings. Were that bananostriches on the pictures? Vhills mouth dropped open as she stared around in awe.
"What ... what is this place?!"
((oh my! what could this be? take it away my friends! time to investigate! ;D
also, i just realised that i threw the tacodile down there with us. wonder how she'd react ... anyone? xD))
