Entry 011 [Accidental Visual] Post body switch panic (Forward dated to the 2nd)

[caelum_ignis_draconigena]

[The scroll comes on without him being aware of it, and it's showing what looks like a small ruined town and a horrified looking dragon staring at his own claws and the soup all over him. He looks back and fourth a few times, the panic and fear on his face is pretty clear too. Nobody would believe he hadn't done this, he was sure if it. The path of destruction wasn't enough, the few claw marks he could see through the soup made it pretty clear... even if he hadn't been in control of his body, how many would believe that?]

No... no... no...no.....

[Skyfire doesn't look for the scroll, he doesn't even stop to check if he has his saddle bags on... he just starts running and bolts in the direction of the closest forest. He'd never be able to go back near a populated area again... It would be like being stuck back on earth again... alone... Why... Why had he even thought that he'd have a chance here...]

[The scroll cuts out with a visual of him running out of sight, and one might get a glimpse of the despondent and hurt look on his face. He was totally unaware that it was just Minako's movie set... Being in the same area as any destruction on earth had him blamed for it, why would it be any different here?]


((ooc: Action replies welcome and encouraged, sine he left the scroll behind. Also, Link of lego town for scale, assuming ponies would be about chest height to an average human))

...

[He lets out a sigh and lays down, for once almost looking as old as he feels... or at least his eyes do. He'd told Billy in a less controlled manner... what was the difference if one more knew?]

I'm old Trixie... very old... I... I'm tired of not being able to settle anywhere. To outlive everyone I've ever known... I've been chased off, hated and hunted for more years than I care to count... just for existing in the same area as a town or city.

[He looked away from her and sighed once more.]

I'm not even sure what I want anymore...

Then they're wrong. They're all wrong, because you would never destroy any towns, whether whether or not they're fake or real.

There must be something you want. Everypony wants something. A dream out in the stars that they can reach to.

[She sits down and looks up, even though it isn't night yet.]

There's a star for everyone up there. I haven't found mine yet, but I'm going to keep trying to attain it. Think about what star you want. Because yours is still up there somewhere, too.

[caelum_ignis_draconigena]

... Doesn't stop them from being afraid of, hating, and blaming me...

[He sighs and refrains from telling her that he's really originally from another 'star' and that he'll likely never reach that star and home ever again. He knew what she was trying to say.]

... I... can't have what I want... I've learned that the hard way. More than once...

[Action]

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

It should. Such rudeness is never to be tolerated.

[Trixie sighs as she looks back over to Skyfire.]

...You still haven't told me what you want. Just what is it?

...Would it help if I gave you a private performance? I have a lot of good stories...

[Action]

[caelum_ignis_draconigena]

... I...

[He swallows hard and puts his head down.]

I want to stop having to watch the few friends I have grow old and die... I want to be able to settle down somewhere and not have to worry about being hated and feared in a few years because the new population in town is afraid of me... I want to go home... but that's not possible either...

[There were more, but those were depressing enough. He wasn't even going to start on his species confusion.]

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

[Well. Trixie isn't really sure what to say about that except to offer to tell him a story again.

That's really all she knows how to do. Sorry, Skyfire.]

[Action]

[caelum_ignis_draconigena]

[The offer was appreciated, but he figured he should go clean up... and avoid making one of the few that liked him upset.]

I... should probably go wash this mess off...

[And then go hide was left unsaid, but even with Trixie's reassurance, he was still feeling pretty low.]
