Rachel dreams - spoilers for the end of the Animorphs series

Her pace is steady, if only because anything that isn't steady calls her attention and gives her something to be angry at, and even Rachel finds it difficult to get mad at her own feet. Plodding along with her little bag slung over one shoulder, chewing numbly on some of the bread from yesterday's dinner, hardly looking around her. It's just another road in another state probably with another town that needs a thug tossed out of it or something. Doesn't need her, just needs anybody.

What's the point?



Grumbling to herself, a very tired, very cranky blonde continues on.

Lucy circles to a landing, downshifts, and holds out a bag.

"Pineapple," she says simply.

It makes everything better!
littlestcooper: (kind smile)

[personal profile] littlestcooper 2008-07-22 01:57 pm (UTC)(link)
"Welcome."

There are pineapples! Three, even! (The rest are back in Lucy's kitchen.)
littlestcooper: (giggles)

...:D!

"Thank you," she says, taking it and wrapping the chain a few times around her wrist.

(If she wears it properly the chain might break when she upshifts.)

Also? BEAM.
littlestcooper: (I swear she's not nekkid)

[personal profile] littlestcooper 2008-07-22 02:11 pm (UTC)(link)
"Said I'd find you."

Friendly eyeroll.
littlestcooper: (sidelong glance)

[personal profile] littlestcooper 2008-07-22 02:14 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm good at finding."

You need not fear for your stealth abilities, Rachel.

...though they are kind of lame at the moment.

She glances upwards pointedly, and smirks.

Yes, yes, terrible pun.

But when flying is what you're up to, what are you supposed to say?
littlestcooper: (giggles)

[personal profile] littlestcooper 2008-07-22 02:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Lucy grins brightly.

"No problems," she confirms. "All good."

Well, at least, if there are any problems she hasn't noticed.

Easy to do that when you spend most of your time in the sky.
littlestcooper: (sharp shadows)

Sniff. Sniff.

Headtilt.

"...Want problems?"
littlestcooper: (I don't like him)

[personal profile] littlestcooper 2008-07-22 02:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Thoughtfully: "I was in New York. There's triffids. People. Want to go? Kill plants, protect strangers?"
littlestcooper: (other self)

[personal profile] littlestcooper 2008-07-22 02:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Upshift and up and away!





The closer to the east coast you fly, the more the ground is carpeted in rustling green.

There are a lot of triffids. New York City is pretty much the northernmost tail end of the spread; they go down the coast for long enough that the other side of the infestation is not remotely visible.

[Killer plants that have venomous stingers and multiply so fast that in their canon they took over the world in about a week! It is difficult to get enough weed killer to saturate one entire coast of the United States.]

There's a castle by the city. That's new.

Lucy doesn't head for it; she takes them to the roof of a mostly-gutted three-story building in an area that smells faintly but insistently of humans.

"People underground," says Lucy simply after she downshifts.
littlestcooper: (sidelong glance)

[personal profile] littlestcooper 2008-07-22 03:02 pm (UTC)(link)
"Place with problems. They're fine now. Triffids will come again tomorrow; then, not fine. Need help to stay alive. They'll like you."

Which is a very Lucy way of saying exactly what her narration rather idiotically failed to smalltext last tag.
