Quiet repose

☀ 04-008 ☀ [Final]

[She sits with her back against a pillar, perched on a rail as she watches the people walking past, or the throng of shoppers on the level below. One foot swings idly as she studies them, her gaze heavy with what might be sleep.

It isn't sleepiness, however. Ammy is looking for something, having filled many of the corridors earlier in a final run, startling the passengers as flowers and grasses sprang up in her passing. They'd wondered aloud where it all came from in their various languages, but no one had noticed the white wolf that had seemed to flicker through the crowds.

Even now, they don't seem to pay much attention to the young woman in white. Some give her a strange glance, and the children stop and stare. There are a few who wonder about the creeper vines that are curling around the pillar, pale blossoms spreading open as Ammy searches the crowds with her eyes.

She'll be leaving soon, but she wants to remember. Committing as much to memory as she possibly can, she pulls a scroll out of her sleeve, unrolling it across her lap. So many portraits, did she have them all? The friends that aren't on it yet will be soon, as ink and watercolor seem to blossom across the paper as if willed into existence. She still has a little bit of room left. Once she's done, she'll go to the gate.]

Sep. 21st, 2009

Fuu!

☀ 04-007 ☀

[Ammy's sphere cuts on to the sounds of shrieking and giggling children. She'd been sitting in a hall nursing a bruise from being tossed about, only to have been discovered by a few of the younger passengers.

She runs in circles around them, dodging their attempts to grab her before doing a sharp about-face and bounding off in the other direction. Flower petals go flying as the children give chase, before suddenly Ammy finds herself being piled onto by a half-dozen children of various races and species. Tumbling to the floor in a heap of flailing limbs and peals of laughter, Ammy takes a moment to bask in the attention. Her white tail and paws are the only things visible under the pile of children for the moment.

And if anyone was paying attention, flowers start to bloom around the group.]

Shiranui-sama

☀ 04-006 ☀

[While Isshin had been exposed to the fear-inducing aspects of Eos, when Ammy had sought the soothing green it had returned her to her male form. The goddess sat with her legs crossed on a rock, not caring about the physical changes. Her face was hidden by shaggy white hair, her breathing steady and even. In fact, the only indication of her inner state of turmoil was the way her fur stood on end, tail held high, and the soft growling sound she made when she exhaled.

So many children dead for no reason. It was unfathomable, there was
no reason at all. Ammy found she didn't even take comfort in the vibrant flowers that were blooming around her at her call or in the butterflies that settled in her thick hair. There was a bitter taste in her mouth like bad meat, and it felt like someone had gouged out a piece of herself. They weren't her children, but something like that...

Her mind was a cold, numb void that could not be filled, her gaze was heavy as she stares at the flowers before her.]

Wolf Shiranui - Prepare for battle

☀ 04-005 ☀

[Anyone on the Economy level near the Luna Cluster might hear a strange booming sound. Like something heavy being thrown against the bulkhead with great force. That's actually not far from the truth, as Ammy's sphere flickers on to show the white wolf throwing itself at the door to its cabin. Each time its head slams against the door, it backs up and tries again.

There's a rather large dent in the door. Ammy's gotten tired of being trapped in a too-small cage, and her relentless attack on the door is one battle she's not giving up any time soon. With one last lunge the door gives way with a loud boom, leaving Ammy standing in the middle of the hall and huffing indignantly. She shakes her fur out, swiping at her nose with a forepaw before taking off down the hall.

She has an Envoy to pick up.]

Jul. 21st, 2009

Sweating - meep!

☀ 04-004 ☀

[Ammy had been asleep when it happened, curled up with her head on her paws under one of Abel's blankets. Which was probably a good thing as her kimono that she usually would have worn in her human form did not reappear.

Frankly, none of her powers or divine instruments did. She wakes up with a yawn, stretching like she usually would, but when she tosses her head to flip the blanket back, it isn't a snowy head of hair and pointed ears that appears. Instead it's Kanako. Ammy yawns again, glancing around with her usual sleepy expression which turns into a slight frown.]


Ne, Abel, my head feels funny. [She frowns more when her voice sounds strange, reaching up to scratch behind her ear. Odd, she could hardly hear today. Only her ear isn't where it should be.]

Ehhhhh~? What the-- [Both hands go to the top of her head, but still no ears. Only to find them much lower than they should be and not the right shape. Then she touches her hair, which is too short and doesn't feel right at all, then she studies her hands. Her skin is tan, much darker than she was used to seeing, and her Celestial markings are gone.]

Na? What's going on?

Jul. 14th, 2009

Hmm...

☀ 04-003 ☀

[Ammy is for once left alone with her thoughts, her memories not being replayed for the whole ship to hear and see for the moment. Instead she is pacing restlessly in a corridor, chewing on a tough piece of jerky as she tries to think. What she talked about with Riku has been bothering her ever since, and she's still trying to sort it out.]

Maybe if I could find a source of running water, but there aren't any on the ship right now, that wouldn't work... Or I could possibly create them from earth and water? No, I think that only works if I'm making animals and humans...

Naaaa, this is frustrating! How could-- [she pauses, biting down on the jerky and tugging on it a little as she gets struck with an idea.]

Maybe if I did it the other way...?

Wolf Shiranui - Radiance

☀ 04-002 ☀

If it is as you say, then we are running out of time.

Cut for possible spoilers )

Jun. 30th, 2009

TL;DR sleeping now

☀ 04-001 ☀

[Ammy is curled up sleeping on her bed, her head resting on her forepaws. Her thought bubble is filled with cherry cakes.]

Jun. 22nd, 2009

Fuu!

☀ 03-015 ☀

[She slept long and hard, dreaming of warm, soft places to sleep and good food, and not having to worry about all this weird stuff. They were vague dreams, but really nice. Which was why she was so surprised when she was startled awake by a really loud bang. Jerking her head up with a surprised woof, she was greeted with Ushiwaka's rich laugh.]

Asleep already, ma chérie? Lazy girl! [He takes his hand off his flute to ruffle her fur, and her ears cock at the sounds of...a festival?

It was a festival! The Celestial Plains were full of life! Sakuya's Guardian Sapling's pink blossoms flutter in the breeze, her children are laughing as Bakugami lights up the sky with his fireworks. Kasugami is drunk as always, passing her sake around and challenging Kaze and Ite to see who could last longest. Kabegami and Tachigami are playing with her grandchildren, and through the spirit gate in the distance she can see Kamiki Village. A festival was being held there as well, how strange.

The strangest thing by far is that her friends from the Crucible are there as well. It doesn't make much sense, but Ammy can't help but feel happy, her tail wagging at the sound of music and fireworks.]


Well, are you going to go join them, or just lay there? [She glances up at Waka, who smiles down at her, laughter in his eyes as he twirls his flute.] They're waiting for you, baby. Come!

[He gets to his feet, the air sparkling around him, waiting for her to follow. Jumping up, she barks loudly, her tail wagging as she chases him down the green hillside with flowers springing up in her wake.]

Shiranui-sama

☀ 03-014 ☀

So this is the true face of a false god.

[Ammy lifts her head, her fur bristling all over as she starts to growl. She doesn't have time to wonder why she's back in her room or what's going on. That voice is inhuman, her room seems to be far larger than it should be, and she's caged in by an ominous dark hand with glowing red markings, and a pile of corpses. Some of them are very familiar, while others are only familiar to those who have seen Ammy's companions from home either through Chicago or her trips to the holosuite.]

You thought you could defeat me, but there is no one left to believe in you now. Death is all that awaits your people.

[She snarls, throwing herself at the darkness, only something is wrong. Her markings uncoil until they are gone, the fire of Solar Flare flickers and dies, her fur turning to dark stone before she crumbles completely. The dust is blown away as the dark hand scatters it.]

In the end, you are nothing.

Jun. 13th, 2009

My heart lies with you

☀ 03-013 ☀

[Ammy's taken a break from the search for others in the housing levels, and instead has gone to the Envirodome. The way she walks seems sluggish, as if she were half asleep, and she pauses often to look around. Whether she's lost or not seems hard to tell.

The truth is, Ammy is saying her own kind of farewells. She doubts the Envirodome will be spared the rot, so she walks through the forest in a daze until she comes across her cherry tree near the river. Looking up at its branches still heavily laden with pink blossoms, she watches it in silence for a long time, then steps forward and presses her forehead against its trunk. She leans against it, listening quietly.]


Ushiwaka, you promised me you'd play your flute again...I'm sorry, I'll come back to see you soon. I worked so hard, and it will be gone soon. Ahh, what a waste. I wanted to sleep here more often, and now I can't.

These curses are stupid, I think. Can't even fix them myself.

Jun. 11th, 2009

Wolf Shiranui - Prepare for battle

☀ 03-012 ☀

[Ammy bristles, snarling and growling before she takes off down the hall. The sphere gets a good look at the rotting corridor behind her as she breaks into full speed, her flowers decaying and turning to ash as soon as the corruption overtakes them.

The sphere has to rush to catch up with her, and a howl echos throughout the Economy level. She's going to start going down hallways and check for the others, but don't expect her to linger. If this is anything like the last time things went bad in the halls, the other levels won't be safe much longer either.]

Jun. 8th, 2009

Shiranui-sama

☀ 03-011 ☀

So it is happening again. There is not much time left, we must find a way to search level three. I will be going, and I would offer my room as a place to sleep, but there's not much to offer. As it is, I can get anything should anyone need it.

May. 31st, 2009

Ookami-sama

☀ 03-010 ☀

[There is the soft sound of chimes as Ammy sits beneath a tree, resting her staff across her bare knees. The bells hung from the hollows carved out of her wooden sandals jingle every time she moves, and the chimes hung from the brim of her hat flutter in the breeze and making soft tinkling sounds. For a black mage, she's dressed rather brightly in her usual reds and whites. Even with her hair pulled up in an ornate knot at the back of her head and decorated with elegant hair sticks, she doesn't look very refined at all.

The fierce scowl she's sporting might have something to do with it, though.]


Can't bloom flowers, I feel slow and sluggish, my Divine Instruments are gone, and now there's riddles.

Where is Ushiwaka when I need him? I hate riddles, and he's always so good with them.

[Frustrated much? You have no idea.]

May. 14th, 2009

Ah?

☀ 03-009 ☀ [Say Goodbye]

[As soon as the happy cloud lifted, Ammy had started feeling a little stir crazy. When in doubt? Check it out! Although the sudden outfit change as she shoved open the door was entirely unexpected. Her outfit's still all red and white, from her red patent leather t-strap heels to her white cloche hat with the red trim and big silk opium poppy. She only has a moment to be confused before a young woman comes running up.]

Miss Ammy, you've gotta hurry!


Eh? [Ammy looks up, a little startled as the girl grabs her hand.]

The boy's are in trouble at the safe house, another tangle with the coppers tryin' ta pin us with the mob again. You gotta go sort it out before somethin' bad happens!

[No matter how much Ammy sputters or tries to escape, it looks like there's no getting out of this one. Guess who's the unknowing head of one of the biggest 'family owned' operations in town?]



((ooc: Ammy's going to find herself in a warehouse downtown having a conversation with the boys in blue...and trying to keep her own 'boys' from trouble. Send help please.))

May. 10th, 2009

Wolf Shiranui - Prepare for battle

☀ 03-008 ☀

[After talking with Sasuke, Ammy's gone looking for him. She stands in the doorway to Level Twenty-four and leans in, sniffing the air. Doesn't smell any different...]

Sasuke? Hello~? [Her ears cock forward as she thinks she hears something, then steps inside. Nope, nothing... Wait. What was that?

Ammy trots off, then starts to jog a little, which practically turns into a skip what with the considerable spring in her step. Flowers start sprouting in her wake, and when she gets to a door, she stops, sniffing the air. The longer she stands still, the more flowers begin to bloom around her feet, and she swipes her nose before letting out a howl.

Looks like she caught Sasuke's scent. Without even caring that her sphere's watching, Ammy drops onto all fours, her human form dissolving as she shoulders the door open and takes off at a full run. If anyone wants to find her, it shouldn't be hard, she leaves a sea of wildflowers behind her.]

May. 7th, 2009

Run - Nippon

☀ 03-007 ☀

[The Enviro-Dome's meadow seems livelier than usual; more flowers, the trees surrounding the meadow in full bloom, and somehow a cherry tree has sprung up near the creek that wasn't there before. The sphere floats on a gentle breeze that sends petals lazily drifting through the air, before it takes shelter in the shade of the cherry tree. Curled up at the base of the tree is a furry white lump that seems to be dozing, if the not-quite-a-snore is anything to go by.

Looks like there's at least one person on the ship who isn't bothered by nightmares.]

☀ 03-006 ☀

[Filtered to Passengers]

[Ammy's sitting with one leg tucked under her and the other dangling over the edge of the bed. There's a nearby robot nearly buried beneath empty dishes, and Ammy bites viciously into an apple, ripping out a large chunk of it. Looks like the goddess woke up very hungry. Licking her lips, she scratches at the bandages on her throat. The irritation is unwelcome, and she'll probably rip them off soon. They need changing anyway.]

Doctor, I believe you asked me to speak with you once I was rested. Correct? [An ear flicks towards the sphere and she spares it a glance, already reaching for more food once she bites her apple down to a bare core.]

I will be ready once I am done eating, is there something you wished to speak to me about?

[For a ravenous wolf, she's managed to be amazingly neat and not spill anything, even if she does have a bad habit of licking her lips and her fingers and stuff too much into her mouth at once.]

Ne, Abel? Do you still want to have tea? It looks like there are monsters out, things will be a bit exciting now, but I'm still hungry.

Ah, speaking of that... Asher? Are you feeling better now? You had better be. Thank you for letting me stay.

My heart lies with you

☀ 03-005 ☀

[Ammy might not be charging off to go battle the demons like Issun wants her to, but she's got a different idea. Taking off on Ame, Oliver and Hiruma's ideas, she's doing things her way. Nuts to this whole typing business.

Which is why Ammy has a scroll unrolled across her floor, and is busy expanding on the portraits of her friends that she was given during the first cycle. There was plenty of paper left over, so why not?

The portraits are rather stylized, but easily recognizable as the friends she's made while spending time aboard the Crucible. When the portraits are completed, she pulls out a block seal, and stamps the lower corner in a brilliant red ink.

It reads 'Okami Amaterasu.'

She also pens a quick note on a scrap of paper, leaving it where the sphere can see it. 'Abel - You said I should take up a hobby, what do you think?'

With that done, she sets her brush aside, and reaches for a cup of tea. Perhaps this will work.]

Apr. 24th, 2009

Shiranui-sama

☀ 03-004 ☀

Mmm, Abel...what's that smell? [She really doesn't want to wake up. At all. She's been happy where she is. The first thing Ammy notices is that her head feels like someone has tried to crush it with a landslide. She groans, rubbing her face against Abel's knee and tries to will the pain away. It isn't working, and for some reason his lap isn't quite as comfortable as it had been when she'd fallen asleep on it. The second big thing she notices is that she feels cold. Not just in the way that standing out in the snow or rain made you. But cold in that horrible way that only means one thing.

Where was her Solar Flare?

Her eyes snap open as she registers the fact that she's been stripped of all her divine abilities, and she looks around, trying to find the source. The Enviro-dome is now a sunny lakeside, the water lapping at the shore and the scent of healthy vegetation fills the air. It's all real, she doesn't need her powers to know it. But that doesn't help her at all.
]

Abel, something's wrong, there's a cursed zone up again. We should probably--AIIIIYAAAAAH~! [She takes one look at Abel and practically bolts, not expecting a demon to be where he'd been just a short time ago. Oh sweet heavens, it was ugly! Not quite as bad as some of the demons back home, but still!

Without even thinking, she snatches her sphere out of the air, and to her complete surprise, lifts it over her head with the oddest battle cry she's ever uttered.
]


TEAM GAMMA WHITE!

[When the dust finally settles and the explosions of blinding light cease, a vaguely stylized wolf sentai is standing where Ammy was just a moment before, with a brilliant red scarf. And standing in a really, really strange pose.]

Henshin a go-go, baby~! By order of the heavens, you shall not go unpunished! Stand and meet your fate!
