27 days till Halloween [Video/action/ FOURTH WALL TIMES AWH YEAH]

[quickattackjack]

_{[ Joining the buzz of confusion filling the Poke'Network today is a very concerned face--or the lack of a face really. No skin, no hair, no lips or eyes...a bleached skull peers into his poke'gear's camera with a pair of glasses pinched in his boney fingers.]}


I really hate to be a bother to anyone, but...my nose has disappeared. And my ears. Not that I'm complaining, you see! But...is it just me?

_{[Jack tries to put his glasses back on out of habit and fumbles them to the ground.]}

Whup--- NO! NO NO NO!

<sub>[The 'gear's view swings wildly to reveal that Jack was on a sunny route, minding his own damn business, but traveling, as one must on some routs, near a Ledge.

Jack groans.]</sub>

Oooh, I swear these blasted natural formations will be the death of me...now I've got to go all the way back aro-- what is that?

_{[He peers at something off-camera with much interest. Soon, a rumbling can be heard.]}

Why...it's a automobile. It's going terribly fast, I don't think that's safe..._{there isn't a road way out here in these woods} what in the WORLD do they think they're doing?

_{[ Le squint.]}

Are they...?

_{[ Jack's face, though he has not an inch of skin to speak of, goes through a hilarious kaleidoscope of expressions before settling on D8!!!!!!!!!!!4 He tears away from the ledge and abandons his 'gear in the middle of the path in favor of some nice, inviting bushes to dive headfirst into because....]}



~*FUCK LEDGES*~


[OOC: Help a rattled skeleton find his glasses in the wreckage of several innocent trees or run for your fucking lives with him. Oh Jesus help us all. Cruella will be tagging around this weekend under my personal journal wolfyttwisted.]

Wow! That's the kind of driving a villain would be a pro at!

[quickattackjack]

_{[Poking out of le bushes]}

Kay! Boy am I glad to see you, hide before she comes back!

[yattagarasu.livejournal.com]

Is there room in there, Mister Skeleton??

[quickattackjack]

Mr. Skeleton? Kay, it's me! Jack! I haven't seen you in so long!

[zach-is-with-me.livejournal.com]

[Meanwhile, a stranger is simply watching from a distance...]

Zach, do you see that? That's Jack Skellington. You remember him, right?

... That's right. He's from Tim Burton's 1993 classic, The Nightmare Before Christmas. Now that was a memorable movie. The music, the animation... Everything about it is still popular today. I'm not sure if it's Tim Burton's masterpiece, though--

[... And now he just stands there calmly as Cruella races by.]

Odd place, Zach. Fun, but definitely odd.

[action] asdfddf that game

[quickattackjack]

_{[Once the dust clears, Jack veeeery slowly clambers back onto the path and recovers his 'gear. Luckily it wasn't smashed. He stares at the fading back-end of Cruella's car in a daze.]}

....What an unpleasant person.

_{[If he'd had any, the little hairs along Jack's neck would have stood up. He felt like he was being watched.]}

[action] Teehee~

[zach-is-with-me.livejournal.com]

Do you want to talk to him, Zach? I'm all for it.

[action]

[quickattackjack]

Hello...? Is someone there?

<sub>[Jack peers reluctantly over the ledge where the still smoking tire tracks lead. Those glasses...those glasses were gone, son.

8C He'd liked them too. He thought they were classy.]</sub>

Hiding, then running all good?

[used-glare.livejournal.com]

{There is a Nanao hiding in the bushes beside you, her own glasses askew.}

I'd ask about the skeletal appearance, but I don't think this is the best time, somehow.

AWHL GUUD

[quickattackjack]

_{[Jack actually jumps a little.]}

Wha-- oh! I'm sorry...is this your bush?

AWESOMEEEE

[used-glare.livejournal.com]

{Nanao straightens her glasses.}

Sorry for frightening you, but I think that woman is mildly homicidal. {Sideways glance!} We can share, can we not?

FOLIAGE FRIENDS FOREVER

[quickattackjack]

That's okay.

And I think you're right. But...I think she's gone now.

_{[Jack braves the world and pokes his head out of the bushes, seeing nothing but a trail of dust and deep, dark tire tracks.]}

That was terrible. She came out of nowhere. Are you alright, ma'am?

[storytimeplz.livejournal.com]

{There is a little girl clinging to one of those branches, a book on the ground that is two meters below her.}

H-help?! Someone?!

[quickattackjack]

_{[Jack is quick to shake off and investigate. Somebody was in trouble!]}

Hold on, you'll be alright!

_{[He figured he could catch her. He rushes to the spot and wonders how on earth she got stuck like that.]}

[storytimeplz.livejournal.com]

{Legs waving in the breeze~ I can do this all night EXCEPT NOT.}

I - I think I'm slipping -!

{And indeed she is - and suddenly, with a shriek, her grip fails, and she falls towards the ground!}

[quickattackjack]

I've got you!

_{[BASEBALL DIVE. DOES HE MAKE IT?]}

[action]

[thebelsareinert]

... Are you alive in there...?!

[action]

[quickattackjack]

Relatively speaking!

[action]

[thebelsareinert]

... Does it hurt?

[action]

[soaringdarkness.livejournal.com]

The hell are you running away for? You already look pretty dead to me!

[action]

[quickattackjack]

_{[Jack pokes his head out of the bushes to find...8U HIS BUDDY CROW! He's too glad to see him to be cross for very long.]}

I don't know about you, but I don't like being dashed to pieces. It's very had to pull myself back together!

[action]

[soaringdarkness.livejournal.com]

[snorts] That'd be quite a sight! I'm not gonna try it myself, though.

[hideurbrains.livejournal.com]

[ Run for my life with you, Jack?

Well, zombie-san (x >9000 ) is kind of already dead, so instead they're running towards you ♥ ]

[action]

[quickattackjack]

_{[Once the dust has cleared, Jack creeps back onto the path. 8( that was terrible. However, the shuffling of the undead does not go unnoticed. The skeleton glances back and spots...a fellow corpse! His worried grimace turns to a grin.]}

Oh, hello!

[action]

BlaaarggghhhhhhhhHHHHhhh.......
