We're the unmended, the untended, cold soldiers of the shoe (open)

Character(s): David Lalonde, Rose Lalonde, and YOU
Location: ALL OVER THE GODDAMN PLACE
Rating: PG-13
Open/Closed/Finished: Open-ish
Summary: Backdated to the 19th. Starting in the quad, a high-flying fight log with dark magic weapons between repressed purple prats. Going all over the place, people can either try to catch up with them to try breaking things up or just...see them go by. Some minor property damage, nothing too severe. Figure out organization yourselves, I don't know?

Will probably end in hideousness.

-------------------------

David's venture to the quad was more of a rush than he cared to admit. The armor and sword came to him immediately thanks to his sylladex, the Lensing Aegis dropping neatly into his offhand.

"I trust you weren't kept waiting too long, dearest sister of mine." The words come out coolly despite the echo, facetious as ever. This was going to be fun.

Today was a normal day in the quad. Lots of mingling, people dozing here and there, a student with a magically appearing sword fighting some other student with knitting needles...

Well, perhaps not so normal.

Gakupo was simply walking about on his way to the music room, a bit of a round about way, really, since he was helping Damian with the Disciplinary Committee, when he noticed the students going at it outside the training center. He barely missed a few zaps of...was that darkness? Whatever it was, it looked dangerous enough to evade.

"What do you two think you're doing?" Gakupo inquired, not too pleased by what he was seeing.

Rose paused in her thrashing of David, looking down at the sudden interruption. Although the Garden was far from deserted she'd somehow forgotten that this clash would be visible to others. Somehow she can't quite bring herself to care, although in any other circumstance she certainly would have.

When she replies her tone is even and light, as if they're discussing the weather. "Exercising."

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH HE IS GOING TO GET ROSE BACK SO BADLY FOR THIS.

"What my dear sister,", the emphasized phrase is dripping with a false saccharine tone, to the point of obvious sarcasm. "has said, yes."

Naturally he's going to take advantage of the momentary distraction to break out of the grip and launch himself up and forward towards her. ATTACK

"Exercising..."

Before he could give the reply a thought, Dave started to attack again. Gakupo glared at Dave for daring to even continue when it obviously was not alright. Stepping in front of Rose to block the attack, he allowed a rush of magical energy to course through him, sending out a Break spell at Dave.

"You're in enough trouble as it is. Don't make it worse."

"I'm afraid that I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm simply pushing him to the limit of his abilities."

She seems a bit put off at the physical intrusion, although any sulky frown has been wiped off by the time her face is visible again. Deciding that she can work this to her advantage, Rose rises a few feet herself and sends several jagged blasts from the Thorns chasing after the Break spell.

Hey, no one said anything about not rubbing salt in wounds.

Yeah, no. That's almost cute. Flashstepping, he evades the Break spell, but a few of the blasts from the Thorns catch him.

Yep, that definitely burnt the outer tunic.

Of course, being hit calls for retaliation.

He catches the rhythm of some beating down photons--still not clear if they're waves or particles, even when you slide in with them, really--and in an instant he's up above and behind Rose. Another blast from the Lensing Aegis, this time a more incendiary and focused sort. More like a goddamn beam, really. This is, of course, followed up by a series of crackling arcs from his sword.

Groaning, Gakupo just shook his head. He can pass the SeeD exam, but he can't wrangle two cadets?

"Rose, I would appreciate if you didn't insult my intelligence."

Now with that said, there were two roads to take: trying to take them both down, or threaten them with punishment. He'll start with the latter first.

"Because of your disregard of authority, you'll be reported to the Disciplinary Committee, and I'm sure I can persuade them to give you the proper punishment."

"What a tragedy. I'll be certain to wear my most somber outfit to the handing down of the comeuppance."

Rose looks up as David flashes above her, barely rolling out of the way of that laser beam bullshit. Such a close call denies her the time to get away from the follow-up blasts, forcing her to throw her own in an attempt to nullify them before they reach her. For the most part she succeeds, but several arcs get through her defenses and catch her on the arms.

Now shit is serious.

Hissing in pain, she casts about for another tactical advantage. Magic crackling from the Thorns, she grabs a nearby bench in its telekinetic grip and flings it at David. If it hits him, excellent. If he dodges it, well. She's got a series of bolts ready to try and catch him off guard.

"A most severely serious circumstance."

Punishment? Fuck that. Who cares.

YYYEAAAAAAH ok haha NO. He's chopping straight through that bench, magic crackling along the length of the Spiral Stairmitar. Carrying himself along with the blade, he drops down in an overhead swing from the air.
