Quatre (Accidental video)

[fractured-white.livejournal.com]

*Albedo's phone is lying discarded on a side table in Albedo's apartment room, recording him sitting with a length of cloth bandage within arm's reach, a knife in his left hand and his right hand unusually bare. He curls his fingers briefly, pressing the tips of his long, pointed nails into the red 667 tattoo on the middle of his palm before opening his hand again and slashing the knife across the number. Instead of reacting in pain, he closes his eyes and lets out a pleased moan.*

Ahhh...that ought to do it. How frail this body is, though, that even this much is the limit of what I can safely inflict.

*The video ends as he reaches for the bandages and starts wrapping his hand, although he clearly has no practice in such things.*

Not at all. [Oh no you don't Albedo, you aren't getting him that easily! He may not be as strong as you but he's a little bit more adept at avoiding getting grabbed.]

[fractured-white.livejournal.com]

You seemed to be getting pretty desperate to me.

*Now that that's dealt with, he'll be trying to pry Nigredo's fingers off his wrist.*

[namedforcat.livejournal.com]

[That's going to be kind of hard considering he's going to try and use his other hand to shoo away what's prying at him.]

[fractured-white.livejournal.com]

*He's going to reply by swatting at the offending hand.*

[namedforcat.livejournal.com]

[Gosh, why are they such children. Of course Gaignun is going to swat back as best he can.]

[fractured-white.livejournal.com]

*Because they had no childhoods. Okay, going to reach over and shove now, while pulling back with his own arm.*

[namedforcat.livejournal.com]

[Ok Albedo, now it's on. He tenses against the shove and yanks back on Albedo's arm to get him back in range for a return push]

[fractured-white.livejournal.com]

*He can't avoid that push, but instead he'll be hooking his foot around the leg of Nigredo's chair and giving it a sharp jerk as he's pushed back.*

Seriously, they are the most mature

[namedforcat.livejournal.com]

[Gaignun makes a startled noise at the chair jerk before planting his feet flat on the floor for stability and yanking back sharply. He's hoping to pull Albedo off balance.]

Shining examples of adulthood.

[fractured-white.livejournal.com]

*He succeeds at that, too. With his foot caught up in the chair leg, he can't brace himself like Nigredo did and he starts to tumble, but not before grabbing onto whatever part of Nigredo's arm he can reach. If he's going down, so is his brother.*

[namedforcat.livejournal.com]

Ah! What the---

[Well ok that had not been part of the plan and down he goes, instinctively trying to use Albedo to cushion his fall.]

[fractured-white.livejournal.com]

Got yo-oof!

*He cuts off as Gaignun lands square on his chest and knocks the wind out of him.*

[namedforcat.livejournal.com]

Ha! That's what you get for pulling me with you! Jerk. [He quickly rolled a bit so that he could stand up.] At least you're slightly better to land on then the floor.

[fractured-white.livejournal.com]

Oh? Why don't you compare side by side?

*Now he's going to make a grab for Nigredo's ankle, trying to pull his brother's leg out from under him as he stands up.*

[namedforcat.livejournal.com]

[And for the second time that day he goes down, not having noticed the hand going for his ankle until it was too late. Old training takes over and he twists a bit so he doesn't land on his face.]

Why you--- [He kicks at Albedo a bit, trying to get the wrist that's holding him.]

[fractured-white.livejournal.com]

*He lets go and laughs, moving out of Nigredo's tripping range.*

Too slow, baby brother.

[namedforcat.livejournal.com]

[There's a small puff of amused annoyance when Gaignun gets up as well.]

Perhaps I let you do that. [Or perhaps he's just waiting for Albedo's guard to go down. When you're the youngest of multiple brothers, you learn to be devious.]

[fractured-white.livejournal.com]

Or maybe you're just trying to cover your wounded pride. By the way, Nigredo...

*He's holding up his right arm to show that it's free now.*

[namedforcat.livejournal.com]

Like something like that could wound my pride. [He smiles a bit and crosses his arms.]

So you're free, now what are you going to do with that freedom?

[fractured-white.livejournal.com]

I think I have to get revenge for you landing on me like that.

*Watch it Nigredo, big brother's trying for a big shove this time.*

[namedforcat.livejournal.com]

Announcing your intentions? Tsk. [Thanks to the forewarning Gaignun was prepared for that, shifting and looking for a counter attack opportunity.]

[fractured-white.livejournal.com]

It would be boring if it was too easy.

*He shoots out his uninjured hand, trying to grab Gaignun by the shirt. But if he misses, he'll be open.*

[namedforcat.livejournal.com]

[And it's a miss! He's not falling for that one again. He shifts to the side, hoping to make a fast grab and immobilize]

[fractured-white.livejournal.com]

*He notices what Nigredo's up to too slow to avoid it, but he does manage to shift his weight so that instead of being completely pinned, he can push against his black haired sibling in an attempt to shove him into the nearest thing that could trip him.*

[namedforcat.livejournal.com]

[Fine then, you want to play that way? There's no way in hell that he's going down with out a fight, or bringing you with him. Hope you like the floor again.]
