10 [Video] ; February 1st, morning

[boredallready]

[Lloyd is standing in the park. There's an object just to his left but just the top is visible right now. He's once again a bit cranky, but at least there's a good reason this time.]

Does anybody know why everything's been acting crazy yet? It's...

[Suddenly he snaps his head toward the object, and as he does so the picture shifts so it shows what he's now directly glaring at. It's a horrible, diabolical...

...water fountain.]

HEY! You're really starting to piss me off, you know that? What's your problem?!

I think it must be the madness, but I'm not sure how it's.....

L-Lloyd....? Are you okay? [Your Chosen, she is concerned. Because you seem to be yelling at the water fountain?]

Video;

[boredallready]

Yeah, it doesn't make any sense. It's affecting everything and we don't even know where it's coming from. [Glance at the water fountain, HE KNOWS YOU'RE STILL BACK THERE.]

Huh? I'm pretty sure I am. Why?

Video;

[oblivious_klutz]

It must be getting through and affecting everyone somehow...

Well, you were...yelling at the water fountain?

Video;

[boredallready]

Must be, unless it's making us imagine it.

[He frowns at it once more.] Well yeah, it's doing something weird.

[atailoftwoworlds]

.....You're getting mad at a water fountin?

[Voice]

[boredallready]

It's up to something! I wanna figure out what!

[Voice]

[atailoftwoworlds]

How the hell can a stupid structure that spouts out water and isn't alive be up to something?! [Yeah, can you tell he's a wee bit cranky too?]

[Voice]

[boredallready]

That's why I can't figure it out. It just makes it more suspicious!

[Voice]

[flutes]

Please calm down, sir, there's no need for you to shout.

[Voice]

[boredallready]

Nothing else is working and it's still being weird!

[Voice]

[flutes]

What do you mean by that?

[Voice]

[boredallready]

I've tried different stuff but there's still something wrong with it.

[nofarplaneyet]

Lloyd, why are you yelling at a fountain? *Oh, so you're crazy AGAIN.*

[boredallready]

Because it's up to something! [Crazy, what do you mean?]

[nofarplaneyet]

Are you hearing voices from the fountain? It's been happening a lot today.

[boredallready]

It's not really voices, it just feels...wrong. So you noticed it too?

[action, eveningish?]

[flamberge]

[Following one hell of a day which nearly involved getting killed by a trashcan, Kratos is wandering around the park to calm his mind. The voices had lessened in intensity and were far more tolerable in comparison to even an hour earlier, but still continued to be a nuisance. A little more and his sanit--

Wait. Is that Lloyd... shouting at a water fountain? Even the voices shut up momentarily while Kratos stops and stares. After a moment, he approaches with a somewhat uncertain expression.]

...Lloyd, what are you doing?

[boredallready]

[Yep, Lloyd is still glaring and occasionally shouting at the small structure. He looks at Kratos when he speaks to him.]

I'm trying to get this stupid thing to listen so it stops acting funny!

[flamberge]

[Please tell him he'd heard wrong. No one could possibly be that stupid.]

...You're trying to tell a water fountain to stop acting funny?

[video forever]

[seizeyoursouls]

[A stuffed bird is talking to you!]

It's kind of awesome-looking, tweet tweet. Almost as cool as me, tweet tweet.

[boredallready]

[...Huh what? Well if the water fountain was acting shady...]

But, err...it's up to something! ...You're not trying to pull anything too, right?

[seizeyoursouls]

[quibbling]

Oh no, have you found the blibberpuffs?

[video]

[boredallready]

Huh? Is that what this thing actually is?

[video]

[quibbling]

I would imagine so, they like to disguise themselves as sources of water.
