YET ANOTHER PSL AU POST BECAUSE WE ARE MONSTERS.



LITERALLY.


Kinda the premise.

[The moth nods, leaning his head against each of theirs before starting to pull away.]

Um. The... Where you have to go. Do either of you have a torch?

[ Algric reluctantly detaches then. ]

I have my mobile?

eyediot: proclaimers - "500 miles" (when I wake up)

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-14 12:38 pm (UTC)(link)
That could work.

[He's still keeping one or two hands on the both of them, like he's scared to let go now that he made contact. But he looks around because there isn't... really much of use in here. Looks back to them both.]

Then I can take you, whenever you're ready. I just can't go in with you.

[personal profile] curriculum_fictae 2021-07-14 01:08 pm (UTC)(link)

I’d like to know that too.

[ Algric gets out his mobile then, and checks the light: seems to work. ]

[Jon looks to them both, antennae working as he thinks of how to... explain this.]

It- It isn't. Quite so much a... 'Final boss' sort of thing as it is... Hm. You've both walked through a lot of his-my marks already. But.

[He leans down to be eye level with them both.]

What was the first to mark us? That is what grips us. It's why we were here to start with.

[personal profile] curriculum_fictae 2021-07-14 02:53 pm (UTC)(link)

[ Oh. Oh god. Algric knows, of course; he goes even paler than … well. ]

That’s - that’s going to be Web, then.

eyediot: (in the dark)

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-14 03:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[He nods to Algric.]

Right. The Spider. So, I-i... I can't go in there.

[He starts to wring his main hands nervously, then stops and finds something else to keep them busy but two of his smaller hands lower down start to wring nervously. Hoping they don't notice.]

I'm.. Y'know, a um. Bit of a meal to spiders like this. So. I can take you to the door, just... Be careful.
eyediot: (looking down I could say heaven sent me)

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-14 03:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[A thoughtful pause, while he considers. He can never know the 'what if' of anything, but he can speculate.]

Everything you've seen and walked through has either been a part of me, or something I carried. If there was one thing specifically you had to destroy?

[He looks Tim dead in the eyes.]

Kill the Spider.

[personal profile] curriculum_fictae 2021-07-14 03:33 pm (UTC)(link)

[ God. Algric shivers at that but. ]

We’ll do it. If we can.

eyediot: (but there's no easy way)

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-14 03:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[He nods, then starts to the door waving a hand to follow him. He peeks outside it first, checking both ways, then steps out and starts leading them down. He's fine for the moment while there are still lights on the wall.

But as they start to lessen, he curls in on himself a bit. Shoulders hunched up and nervously looking in all directions.]


Keep an eye out for... Anything.

[personal profile] curriculum_fictae 2021-07-14 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)

[ Algric is a live wire of nerves in turn, pulsing between being mostly corporeal or a fogbank in a jumper. ]

God. That’s not ominous at all.

eyediot: (and if I grow old well)

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-14 04:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[It absolutely is. And Jon, in his apprehension, is starting to slow down, his large draped wings carpeting the steps behind them. A few times he nearly jumps out of his skin, reaching for something that doesn't seem to be there.

But the further they go along, the more dulled their steps get. Walking on something soft and makes lifting their feet a little harder each step. If silent, one could almost mistake the nervous breathing to the sound of many long limbs scittering around.]


W-we're nearly there.
curriculum_fictae: (Default)

[personal profile] curriculum_fictae 2021-07-14 04:17 pm (UTC)(link)

Got it —

[ Once it starts to get proper dark, Algric flicks on the phone light. Searching for… wellS the source of those skitters. ]

eyediot: <user name="behoelding" site="twitter.com"> (this wasn't what I was expecting)

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-14 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[He does get stuck a few times. Nothing serious, but enough that he stops abruptly to swat at himself, pull his antennae loose from a few strands hanging down. The skittering all seems to stop wherever Algric points it. Might be a trick of their hearing.

But the time they reach the bottom, not only is it wholly dark outside of Algric's light, but Jon is absolutely shaking in fear.]


H-here. It's here.

[A dark oak door with heavy, thick webbing in the corners and over the knob. It almost looks like a lovely page out of a picture book, neatly designed and put together.]

...Good luck. Both of you.
curriculum_fictae: (Default)

[personal profile] curriculum_fictae 2021-07-14 04:37 pm (UTC)(link)

[ This is —

Algric’s eyes go even wider as his light rests on the horrible, children’s book door. He knows it by its description. From what Jonah has told him… ]

It - it’s polite to knock. Isn’t it.

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-14 05:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[He goes very still at those words, watching them both. Then something gentle like a smile picks up, pinching at his eyes.]

I love you both, as well.

[But Algric seems ready... He starts carefully backing up, nearly tripping over his own wings. But he's watching from as far around the corner as he can.]
curriculum_fictae: (Default)

[personal profile] curriculum_fictae 2021-07-14 05:48 pm (UTC)(link)

Yes, I -

[ Algric’s voice cracks a little. ]

I love you so much, Jon. With everything I am.

[ But for now… he knocks. ]

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-14 06:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[The knock resonates loudly, through the wood and around them. Enough to spook MothJon to leave entirely, going back to the panic room.

The door cracks open, slowly. An invitation, a welcome. The room inside is dim. A large open space with some desks and a vanity dresser lining the side walls. Books, boxes of tapes and file folders are stacked anywhere out of the walkway, on every flat surface. And scattered around the room are even more that are loose. Here and there are trinkets, bits of memory held dear of his loved ones. One of Algric's favorite mugs. One of Tim's favorite models. Sasha's laptop. A book of sheet music from his gran. All neatly arranged wherever they are, a bit of organization attempted in the chaos of his life.

The back wall is a series of floor to ceiling windows, with no curtains so the Eyes can look in. All eight of them. Never blinking, always focused. It watches all the thick, white strands of webbing that take over the room. From the ceiling, to around certain memories, files, cassette tapes. It makes it so there is no clear path through or around the room as the strands are everywhere. But they all come to a focal point: a pit in the center of the room. It's a large hole, completely covered over with webbing, but every web in the room ends there.

The room is filled with the sound of scitters, hundreds of spiders making their way around. And the sound of magnetic tape running, intermingled with the web threads here and there.]
