CAMPUS WIDE EVENT: EVERYTHING AND THE KITCHEN SINK

[intercom_voice]

[Hopefully everybody likes waking up outside.

Because as it were, in the middle of the night when everybody had been asleep or lulled into a sudden one by the sheer weight of the air around them...the Campus disappeared in its entirety. Left behind was only the cool surface of the concrete foundation.

For now it seems the residents were left to fend for themselves in the wilderness of the island. Not even the voice from over the intercom would comfort them.]

((ooc: the school has disappeared, along with all the NPCs and everything that was inside! no opt-out areas this time around. The temperature is cool during the day, and colder at night.

The event will last until October 20th, and I'll post a closer to signify it. Everything will be returned to its rightful place then.))

[Safely on land once more, Bakura unties himself and slips off Karasu, landing on his own two feet.]

Not bad... I've always wanted to fly! [So thanks for being a docile toy for him!]

[moderndaydragon]

[She nods a little, laying down and letting her wings rest on her back again. She didn't actually mind that one... if she got used to that, then she could more easily carry around everyone else.

Still... her gaze turns to the direction they left the other Bakura in, laying her head on her tail again.]

[stealshinies]

[Bakura allows Karasu to rest a moment, wandering away from her as he simultaneously ties his sash back around his waist. He heads into the forest, staying just at the edge and comes back a few minutes later with some berries and a couple other fruits he found lying around.

With surprising contentedness, he flops down besides Karasu's form and begins wiping his food off on the inside of his robe to clean it of dirt and debris.]

[moderndaydragon]

[She glances at him, then gives a little sigh. She's going to be starving once they're done here... maybe she should go find a couple bears or something for when that does come around.

Seemingly deciding, she gets to her feet, turning to try and slip into the forest carefully. It's going to be ten times harder than a cave, but at least she can see. Hope you don't mind hanging around alone for a while, there, Bakura!]

[stealshinies]

[Bakura bristles when he sees her leaving, less out of some trivial fear of loneliness (although he did have that, he was less used to being alone than one might think) than of wondering where the fuck she was going, he didn't say she could leave.]

You better be taking a piss break, because I'm not done with you yet!

[moderndaydragon]

[She turns her head, opening her mouth and pointing in to indicate "hungry." At least that's an old enough gesture that she hopes he can still recognize it.]

[stealshinies]

[Bakura seems to understand the gesture, wry as his expression may be, because he turns back to his food and continues cleaning.]

[moderndaydragon]

[Good.

It takes about half an hour, but when Karasu comes back, she comes back with... quite a meal, dumping the bodies over off near the cliffside to get them out of the way and looking back at Bakura, sitting down for the moment to wrap her tail around her legs.]

[stealshinies]

[Bakura had already finished his snack by now, but when Karasu returns he can't help but stalk over, licking his lips at the sight of something bloody and red.]

Who knew there were even that many animals on this island! H-hahaha! [He gives one of the bodies a kick with the sole of his foot.]

I'll have to build another fire--or no, wait. I should see if you remember what I taught you the last time!

[moderndaydragon]

[She reaches a claw into the forest, dragging out a good hunk of the ground along with whatever branches and brambles had gotten caught into it. Good enough for now, at least!

That done, she reverts, going about setting up the fire and trying not to look at the bodies herself. Mostly because, if she did, she might just end up trying to tear into them as is, though the fact that her tongue keeps flicking over those pronounced canines of hers does give some of it away.]

[stealshinies]

[While Karasu does the dirty work, Bakura has the job of sitting down one the dead animals and looking arrogant as he watches.

He'd taught her the bow method of lighting a fire...it took a bit more time to set up, but it was faster than the tireless persistence needed in the bowless method.]

[moderndaydragon]

[And thankfully, with some more painful plucking, the fire is going before too awful long. She can be taught!]

There.

[stealshinies]

H-heh...with a fire that small, we'll be cooking for the next year!

[His voice lowers a bit, darker than before.] Unless you plan to eat these raw... As your Ka, like a wild animal!

[moderndaydragon]

[She glares at him for that, sighing and standing up.]

Fine, fine! I'll be right back...

[grumblelazyassthiefmakinghergetthewoodgrumble goes]

[stealshinies]

[...Welp, might as well do something while she's gone.

A necklace made out of bear teeth sounds pretty cool, right? He'll just be ripping those out one of those poor bear's gums while he waits.]

[moderndaydragon]

[It takes her a couple trips and some very pointed not looking at the food, but she finally gets a much bigger fire going, enough to easily cook all that.]

There. How's that?

[stealshinies]

Good! They're too big to hold over the fire, so let's just toss them in! We don't need to cook the insides anyway.

[Bakura steps back, his hands soaked in blood and clutching two handfuls of pearly dagger-like teeth.]

My hands are full, so you do it.

[moderndaydragon]

[...The worst part is, if she looks too long at his hands, she's tempted to lick them off. As it is, she just sort of drags or tosses the bodies in, ignoring the stink of burning fur for the sake of NOT being tempted to devour them raw.]

[stealshinies]

[She won't need to worry about that for long, since Bakura takes a seat by the fire and licks his hands off himself, dropping the teeth carelessly into his lap.

The stench of fur cooking isn't exactly appetizing to him, but Bakura doesn't really mind it. He's just going to try and carve holes into these teeth with the tip of his knife while the food cooks.]

[moderndaydragon]

[Ug. And you call her a wild animal. It cooks in silence, at least, though she's wishing she had thought to bring a knife, just watching him fiddle with his.]

[stealshinies]

[Bakura pockets the teeth once he's done carving into them, gesturing lazily towards the fire.]

Are you resistant to fire in your Ka form? Try flipping them over.

[moderndaydragon]

I don't know. I never tried actually putting my hand in fire.

[...But there's no way else to do it, is there? Sigh. She changes again, then gingerly tries to turn them over. It's definitely not "resistant," as the growls of pain clearly show, but at least her tolerance in this form is enough to handle it.

...though he gets to see the bizarrity of a dragon sucking on its hand.]

[stealshinies]

Well, now's your chance to find out!

[When Karasu actually does it, he's a bit surprised. What an obedient Ka she is!

...And what a bizarre sight indeed. It amuses Bakura enough to make him grin, but not much more. Silently he turns back to his ministrations, searching his person for some sort of string or chain he might be able to use for his teeth.]

[moderndaydragon]

[At least the scales mostly dampened the burning. One good thing about being a dragon, she supposes.

She remains in her dragon form, at least long enough for everything to finish cooking and her to yank it out. That starving feeling is pressing on her, so she unceremoniously shreds the cooked bodies apart, ripping them into pieces that can actually be eaten... at least, so she hopes.

A quick shift after that, and... well, "wild animal" isn't too far off the mark, especially with those sharp, inhuman canines of hers.]

[stealshinies]

[Such power and bloodlust! While Karasu tore away at the bear, he could feel the splatter of warm blood on his face. It was still pretty raw inside, after all.

Bakura lets out a laugh, leaning forward to snatch a few large chunks of meat for himself. He picks the reddest he can find in arm's reach and digs in, lacking even the slightest of manners. Hope you enjoy the sound of him chewing!]
