LinkTired, the first uneventful night here..
// He let out a long sigh, before putting his hat on roughly
What do you have in store, kid?
// He paused, thinking about it before hesitantly nodding, maybe he could keep up with the kid if he just discretely used his script..
Sure, doesn't sound half bad to me.
¡ he does NOT know whats in store…
YAAY!! I’M IT IM IT IM IT!!
< He frees his arms from behind his back, revealing one hand to have been wielding the firebrand like a toy. >
If I get y0u with the stick, y0u’re it!! I’ll give y0u a headstart!!
< He was practically bouncing with excitement, you couldn’t possibly shut him down now, could you? >
|NOOO HES SO SCREWED
// His face dropped, even if it was hard to read from the mask he had on as he got nervous
Oh err- I...
// He sighed, he really couldn't say no to the kid, so he stood up and stretched, putting on a fake cheery tone as he started to run in a random direction.
Here I go..!
¡ play with the kid they said… it’ll be fun they said…
< He grinned, face full of joy as he spun the sword around in his hand, moving side to side from foot to foot as he counted on his fingers. >
00ne… Tw00… Y0u run fast!! Threee…
| rook lets out the girliest scream when coolkidd gets close to tagging him ALSO i'll say for now that they're just uh... in the theatre map to match 1x.. IT ROTATES EVERYDAY TO A DIFF MAP THAT'D BE AWESOME
// He twisted the corner, going into a fun arcade carpet area with way too many colors and running up the stairs into a small ball pit, dropping in by accident and mumbling under his breath
Shit-
¡ THIS ENTIRE MAN SCREAMING AS A CHILD RUNS AT HIM IS SUCH FUNNY IMAGERY
F0ur, five… That’s enough, right? Ready 0r n0t here I c0me!!
< He taps his chin, before bolting in the direction he’d seen Rook go towards, entering the arcade, gazing at the machines longingly for a moment before refocusing on the game. >
Mister R0000k… C0me 0ut c0me 0ut wherever y0u are!!
< He stalked through the arcade, a bounce to each step as he dragged his sword behind him with a quiet scratching sound against the carpet, craning his neck to look all around. >
| THIS CHILD IS TERRFYING THO
// He crouched down, trying to make his way to a corner of the ball pit as quietly as he could (though it wasn't working very well...), but he made it to the corner and sat as stiff as he could.
¡ trust TRUST HES JUST A SILLY LITTLE GUY THERES NOTHING TO BE AFRAID OF
< Looking around, his eyes locked onto the ball pit as he heard the unmistakable sound of rubber rubbing against rubber, and stopped calling out, going silent and raising his sword to minimize any noise. >
< He slowly stepped up the stairs to enter the pit, briefly stopping to glance in before doing a running jump straight into the center of it! >
WEE-WOO!!—
// He quickly turned to his left and started running up the stairs of the other side, jumping off the short-ramp and back onto the soft carpet, running through the movie theatre hallway as he yelled.
You're fast, kid!
< He scrambled to quickly get up, running after him quickly, reaching his hands out as he pulled up his gui. >
I can be FASTER!!
< Activating his walkspeed override, he sped forward, his giggles being cut short as he just BARELY grazed by Rook, swinging his sword fruitlessly. >
N0 fair… C0me back here!!
// He scrambled to move to the side as he yelled , even with coolkidd being way faster.
Almost!
// he briefly let out a sigh of relief before turning the opposite way and turning the corner sharply, pushing off of his foot and into a bright, vaporwave-like room, hiding in the closet to catch his breath.
It w0nt just be an ALM0ST next time!!
< He ran after him, pointing his sword forward as he followed him into the neon room, pausing as he lost sight of him after immediately entering the room. >
Hey… This isn’t hide n seek!! Cm0n!!
< He crept forward cautiously, checking out the room at face value before his eyes settled on the bright pink bed. The child approached it, chuckling as he tore the sheets off, only to reveal.. no one. >
Mister R000k… Y0u ARE here s0mewhere, right…?
| rook yells NOBODIES HERE
// He stayed quiet, weighing in his options, he didn't wanna dissapoint the kid but a hit by that sword is... not looking like the best idea.
¡ c00lkidd says OKAY!! and walks away /j
< He continues to roam the room, checking under tables, IN drawers, just about any nook and cranny before finally noticing the closet in the wall. >
Miissterr…?
< He begins to inch the door open slowly with his sword, hesitant. >

| IN DRAWERS IS SO FUNNY HES COMPACTED INTO A BRICK INSIDE OF THE DRAWER I JUST HAD THE FUNNIEST IDEA
// It was a fairly small closet, so he had climbed the damn wall and is now sitting with his legs and hands holding himself up against the ceiling of the closet, straining slightly as he held his breath, he wouldn't be able to hold this much longer.. (holy shit)
¡ OH MY GOD IMAGINING HIM JUST COMPRESSED INTO A DRAWER-SIZED CUBE WOULD BE SO AWESOME
< He only opens the door far enough to fit his small stature through, peaking his head in to look around, just seeing boring old clothes. Except, there were some bright red jackets in the pile when he looked closer!! >
N0b0dy w0uld mind if I t00k s0me cl0thes left behind, right…?
< He was practically speaking to himself as he stepped into the closet to look through and pick up a few of the brightest pieces to gaze at. >
¡ he might need to look up.
| hopefully its like cartoon logic and he'll only fall when coolkidd looks at him!!
// He made a strained breathing noise, before letting go and falling straight on top of coolkidd with a strained profanity, laying there for a moment before pushing himself off of the kid.
Ouch... oh no- you alright kid?
¡ THE LAST THING HE SEES BEFORE HE GETS SMUSHED IS JUST ROOK DIRECTLY ABOVE HIM
< He lets out a squeal as he practically gets flattened, staying still for a moment before slowly sitting himself up, feigning what anguish he could as he waited to get ever so slightly closer to Rook. >
0w…
< He only kept up the act for a moment before raising the firebrand he still held tightly to tap Rook on the head a tad bit rougher than he intended, a small flame igniting where he was struck. >
TAAG!! Y0u th0ught!!
¡ i would think he’d have like. pretty good durability considering one of his abilities uses himself as a battering ram…
| he bounces around like a bouncy ball sometimes ALSO ITS LIKE 4 AM SO IF I DONT RESPOND I WILL IN THE MORNING...
// He took off and quickly extinguished the flame from his hat, rubbing his head where he was hit, chuckling in relief as he realized he wasn't going to get a mean hit from the sword after all.
Well, its my turn then isn't it? you want a head start?
¡ I FORGOT HOW LATE IT IS BUT ALRIGHT!!
< He paused, suddenly all too aware it was his turn to run as he scrambled to open the closet further to let him out, standing outside and pausing to talk. >
0f c0urse I get a head start when y0u g0t 0ne!! Muehe—
< He took a moment to store his heavy stick away, before taking off in a sprint to the grassy courtyard. >
// He nodded, watching as he counted out loud.
One.... Two...
// As he got closer to five, he stood up, getting ready to chase after the kid..
< He looked around, looking around for something he could use to his advantage, eyes glinting with an idea as he looked at one of the taller trees, taking a moment to size it up before clambering his way up the trunk, claws leaving scores behind. >
¡ treekidd…
| hmm i wonder where coolkidd is,,, rook says as he sees a tree eviscerated by claw marks
Three, four... five!
// He yelled a bit louder so he could hear, before walking over to the grassy field and looking around, before coming across the claw-marked tree, smiling and saying fake-obliviously as he looked around.
He disappeared out of thin air! where'd he go?
¡ a wild animal mustve made these marks! and then you look slightly up
< He chuckled from the perch he’d made on one of the highest branches of the tree, clinging onto it due to the swaying as he looked down at Rook, seemingly clueless. >
< One of his best hiding spots to date!! >
// He quickly looked up, into the tree as he laughed
Aha! found you!
// He used his script to push himself further into the air as he jumped, grabbing onto one of the less stable branches and trying to climb up.
EEP!!-
< He shrieks as he sees him suddenly get a bit too close for comfort, clambering his way nearly to the absolute top of the tree, sinking his claws deep within the trunk to stay stable. >
IM N00T HERE!!
// He started to climb the branches of the tree, slow compared to the kid as he murmured to himself
My back can NOT handle this..
// He gained footing on one of the thicker branches, yelling up to the top
Better run! I'm comin' up!
Uh- Um!!
< He looked around frantically, summoning his gui as he thought of what he could possibly do. Items? No, that’d be mean!! His boys couldn’t be summoned up here, and he didn’t wanna throw something at Mr. Rook in general… Oh wait! >
< He stopped to brace himself as he waited for Rook to approach closer, shimmying his way into a position where he seemed like he was about to leap?— He waited for him to be right near before he jumped off, waiting a second to glide through the air before activating his walkspeed override, >
WATCH THIS!!
< Directly down he plummeted. He clearly underestimated how hard he’d hit the ground when combining both gravity and an exploit that dealt with pushforce, the crash creating a small area of impact around him as he crumpled, laying there for a moment. >
// He kinda just watched in awe, and then in horror as he saw the poor kid laying there, letting go of the tree and landing in a roll, crouching over next to the kid as he spoke frantically
Kid, you alright?!
< He grumbled, rolling over and sitting up as he shook his head off like a dog. His arms and torso seemed a bit scuffed, but nothing was bleeding at the least. >
I’m fine!! It’ll take a l0t m0re than that t0 make me sleep!!
< He got up again, stumbling for a second as he held his head but began running circles around Rook. >
Cm0n!! Let’s keep playing!!
Comment removed
// He paused briefly, relieved as he nodded, standing up as he chuckled, a bit amused by the excitement.
Alright.. alright, start running and I'll chase you.
// He got ready to chase the kid, stretching his back out with a sigh.
0KAY 0KAY!!
< He ran down a long hallway and took a sharp left back into the arcade room, looking around at the area once more… He wouldn’t go in the ballpit again, but there was a stage with curtains!! >
< He tucked himself behind the curtains, standing as straight as a stick to ‘fit’ into the columns of folds. >
¡ suspiciously c00lkidd shaped lump in the curtains
