silvercrusader: (shock  ⚔ yyyyikes)

[personal profile] silvercrusader 2016-07-04 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
Mm.

[He hums softly, not quite committing one way or another. For now, he simply watches Sticky Fingers, half in dread and half in interest. Polnareff shifts his weight, fingers curling aimlessly at his sides.]

Where? I mean-- just in my torso, is that-- is that how it works?
silvercrusader: club soda isn't gonna fix that no sir (talk ⚔ ohhh boy)

[personal profile] silvercrusader 2016-07-04 06:44 am (UTC)(link)
[All right. That's-- okay. He has to just stop thinking about it, right? Don't think about the fact that several lengths of wood are about to go in your chest, near your heart and lungs, near a lot of vital organs that you absolutely need. Think of it as . . . as a pocket. A chest-pocket. Except it's not in fabric, it's in your skin, and it's in your skin, and eurgh--

But he doesn't say anything. He could, and he thinks he knows Bruno well enough to say he wouldn't be mocked for balking-- but there's a stubborn part of him that wants to see this through. There are reasons for that, beyond sheer stubbornness, but that's for later examination.]


All right.

[He cocks his head, arms at his side.]

Go on.
silvercrusader: watchin your 5 year old recital like (embarrassed ⚔ ohhhh my lord)

[personal profile] silvercrusader 2016-07-04 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Yep! Yeah, I'm-- yep. Totally.

[He just doesn't look down into it. That would be a mistake. Because whatever he sees-- if it's blackness or his guts or what-- he's not gonna like. So best to just keep staring at Bruno, analyzing him really hard, than to think there's a hollow space within his chest. If he thinks about it-- and he's not, focusing all his attention and energy on memorizing the kind of barrettes Bruno uses in his hair-- he can feel things shifting along his chest, skin and muscle, painless but most definitely there.

It helps, actually, that it was Bruno and not Sticky Fingers who did it. He's not stupid, he knows who it really was-- but it was a far sight easier to have Bruno's fingers pressing against him than Sticky Fingers.

God, the things he'll do for laziness. Actually-- and he finally exhales-- now that nothing is happening, it isn't so bad. He's still definitely not looking down, but-- just standing here, with that in him, isn't the worst thing in the world. It's better than it had been when they were stuck together.

He jerks his head, a go on kind of gesture.]

[He brushes his fingers against his chest, but there's nothing there. His breathing is normal, his heartbeat is steady, and there's no sudden heaviness in his chest. Everything appears normal, and Polnareff isn't certain if he likes that better or worse than some kind of indication he was carrying several boards within him.]

Not even a scar, huh . . .

[Not that he really expected one. There hadn't been one the first time, after all. Polnareff finally glances down, peering at himself for a few seconds before giving Bruno a smile. It's a genuine one, despite his nervousness-- because hey, this isn't so bad!]

Least if we ever get a movie theater around here, you and I have a way to sneak in snacks.
silvercrusader: i think  i slept with his sister (happy ⚔ hey i know that guy)

[personal profile] silvercrusader 2016-07-04 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I mean, let's not make a habit of it.

[He settles in next to Bruno, hands back in his pockets, pleased to have earned that laugh again.]

But no, not so bad. I dunno, I expected I'd feel it more-- like a weight or something, you know? I mean, it's a lot of wood. So--

[And he ducks his head, meeting his eyes.]

Do you start on the bottom or the sides, building this? I mean, after you get all the wood cleaned up and all that.
silvercrusader: (happy ⚔ well hey there chum)

[personal profile] silvercrusader 2016-07-04 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Makes sense.

[He still has no idea how you get flat boards to curve into a suitable boat-y shape, but he's not really here to do the thinking. There's a way, and Bruno will tell him when the time comes.]

You've got . . . let's call it til the end of this project to come up with a clever name for this ship, by the way. Don't disappoint me.
silvercrusader: heavily tsun (happy ⚔ that's our jotaro)

[personal profile] silvercrusader 2016-07-04 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, anything that makes me laugh. I'd say a pun, but since English isn't either of our first languages that's a little unfair. Something that isn't just straightforward, like Destiny or Freedom or The Ship We Made Because Polnareff Was Bored, junk like that.
silvercrusader: if you play with it (talk ⚔ anything can be a toy)

[personal profile] silvercrusader 2016-07-05 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
If I did, I wouldn't be letting you offer suggestions at all. Come on, Buccellati, I've got more faith in you than that.
silvercrusader: in their family (talk ⚔ so THAT'S how it is)

[personal profile] silvercrusader 2016-07-05 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
You really want to give me that power, Bruno?
silvercrusader: to the house (happy ⚔ windows are the eyes)

[personal profile] silvercrusader 2016-07-05 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
[It's not funny at all, really, but still he huffs a pleased little laugh.]

Suit yourself. Just remember this when it comes time to set sail, all right-- you trust me, with all that implies.
silvercrusader: never mind, it was a plastic bag (confusion ⚔ is that a goose that just)

[personal profile] silvercrusader 2016-07-05 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
[Ah. Right. The conclusion. That happy warm feeling that had suffused his chest is now gone, replaced by-- well. Not dread, exactly. Just a bit of nervousness. At least he's calmer than he was going in; that's worth noting.]

All right. Have at me, I guess.

[God, this is weird if he thinks about it. But he is, and so the inevitable question comes up:]

Hey, what if you forget where exactly you zipped it the first time? Like, what if you unzipped a slightly different spot, is it just empty space?
silvercrusader: you might need to slow down (talk ⚔ hold on friend)

[personal profile] silvercrusader 2016-07-05 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
How is that memorable! What if you forgot which urinal it was? What if you forgot which bathroom it was? Oh, urgh--

[Whether that's to the thought of so much wealth being placed into a urinal (and why oh why does it always come back to bathrooms) or the fact that he's slowly having four trees worth of wood being pulled out of him is anyone's guess. Polnareff finally dares to glance down, because it's either that or stare too closely at Bruno-- and hey, what do you know. Having a gaping black hole in your chest still isn't all that great to look at.

Back to staring up at Bruno. Much safer territory there.]
