In the courtyard - Saturday afternoon

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory took a few minutes away from her various books and study aids and research materials to take a peaceful, soothing, limbs-optional walk through the courtyard.

Sadly, she was Vladdie-less, as the poor puppy had never been a big fan of sunlight, being vampiric and all.

As she passed by a large puddle, she popped her arm in and out of its socket. Just because she could.

[ooc: Locked at the moment to certain, um, beings. Though really, nothing's stopping your character from wandering through. Just know that if you try to interfere with the action, said...beings will ignore you in favor of Rory, and Ror herself will shoo you away.]

The leader swooped up above Rory so that he could look down on her. "Stop begging, Sidekick. It will not alter your fate. Fetch He Who Killed RT or face your doom your FISHIE DOOM."

"Um. I guess I'll take 'doom,' then," Rory replied. "Since I'm not bugging Professor Tick over this and my God that was a bad pun."

She rolled her eyes. "I guess I could call him, or something, if you really want."

"Yes," the leader said. "Use your primitive communication device to call He Who Killed RT and I will speak with him directly."

The warriors in their ships, meanwhile, had gotten themselves all sorted out and were now flying around Rory giving her little fishy glares. They would be ready if she tried to destroy any more ships.

Rory sighed, and pulled her phone from her pocket.

She hit 9 on speed dial, and held it out for the wee fishie to speak into.

"Hello! This is The Tick!" Tick said, answering his phone.

The leader approached the phone carefully, but did not notice when the translator drifted on its tether and bumped into the phone. The smaller bubble popped and the device fell to the ground.

Oblivious to all this, the leader spoke into the phone. /We have taken your sidekick as our prisoner. You will answer for your crimes against out scout or the human female will die a horrible death./

"Hello, sir," Rory said flatly. She stared at the fish, and wondered why she couldn't understand it anymore.

The Tick thought this all sounded a little fishy. "Hello, Rory. Are you in mortal danger right now?"

"There are goldfish in little bubbles threatening my life. They want to talk to you, or something," Rory replied, sounding a bit bored if anything.

"Ah. Then the scout they mentioned is poor RT?" Tick asked.

"Okay, you fishie fiends! Promise me that no harm will come to Rory and I'll meet with you! But be warned. You face... The Tick!"

/No harm will come to The Sidekick if you come to meet us. We do not fear you, fish killer, no matter what you call yourself./

"Okey dokey. I'll be right there!" Tick hung up, grabbed a cup of coffee, and headed out (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhighdorms/483149.html?thread=22952013#t22952013).
