Day 255 [Open] First rule of Pillow Fight Club: Never talk about Pillow Fight Club

[scary_music]

Who: Ibuki and you! And pillows!
Open: Open
When: Mostly noon/afternoon.
Where: Everywhere in the Bastion.
What: Ibuki's bored and is attacking everybody with pillows
Format: Action but ok with switching
Warnings: Pillow abuse


[Sometime after lunch, Ibuki's voice will ring out from everybody's amulet that is within the Bastion's communication range-]

IBUKI IS DECLARING IT NOW. THIS. IS. PILLOW WAR!!!!!!!

[Ibuki will not be responding to amulet network messages that reply to her]

[Rather, she is running around with a bunch of pillows. Should she spot you, prepare yourelf, for she could do a number of things]

[1: Should you not notice her, she'll try to sneak up behind you and bop you on the back of the head with a pillow. If it looks like you're in the middle of important work, it'll be a very soft bop]

[2: If you're watching her, she'll run up to you and try to pillow bop your face]

[3: There is no 3]

[4: She may be hiding around a corner, and when you get close... "BWAH!" Pillow to the face!]

[5: Even dragons aren't safe from pillows.]

[6: If she knows you fairly well, especially if you're a member of her band, she might be coming into your bedroom directly to pillow fight you.]

Aahhh...

Maybe, that's true... that's true. Still, still, you can't just work all day!

Hey, hey, how about Ibuki plays you a song? Does Zuko-chan like music?

[daughterofursa]

...it's all right.

[There's no enthusiasm in that response. Guess who repeatedly skipped out on 'music night' to hide in her room.]

[scary_music]

Uwah... well, well, you haven't heard Ibuki's music!

Let Ibuki serenade you! You'll wait for Ibuki to get her guitar, right? Right?

[Ibuki your favorite genre isn't serenading...]

[daughterofursa]

I guess.

[She's not sure what a guitar is but she gets the feeling Ibuki would just track her down later anyway.]

[scary_music]

Okay! Ibuki will be back soon!

[Let's just say they're near an electric outlet for convenience sake, because Ibuki rushes off and soon returns with her electric guitar; before plugging it in and tuning her instrument]

Get ready, Zuko-chan! This is Ibuki's favorite song! She calls it, "Let my feelings reach you too!"

[Please enjoy the freaky death metal music]

[daughterofursa]

[Zuko is not willing to listen to that all the way through.]

Stop, stop! That isn't music!

[scary_music]

Huh? Huh? What?

What was that...?

It is music!

Oooh... this is the dreaded generation gap rearing its ugly head!

[Ibuki, you're around Zuko's age...]

[daughterofursa]

What generation gap? We're the same age.

[Although if Zuko lived in Ibuki's world, she would definitely not have been from the same century.]

[scary_music]

Huh? Really? Ohhh, you're probably right!

But then, Ibuki could be a lot older, she has no clue! But let's not talk about that, it's depressing!

Then... then it's cultural differences!

... Though, if Zuko-chan wants to hear a gentler tune, Ibuki could make an exception, just for you!

[daughterofursa]

...I don't know. What's your definition of "gentler"?

[scary_music]

Ooh, Zuko-chan... Ibuki will let you in on a little secret!

Ibuki can play all the genres from where she came from! Classical! J-pop! And that's just the tip of the ice berg! It's the largest iceberg ever, it's huge! She is the Super Ultimate Level Music Person, after all!

Ibuki knows that Death Metal isn't gentle! It's not gentle at all! Ibuki truly means it when she says something gentler!

[daughterofursa]

[Well, with a name like "death metal"...]

All right. Let's hear it then.

[But if she doesn't like it, that's it, she's walking away. ... Giving the pillow back and walking away.]

[scary_music]

Okay, Ibuki will do her best! Here we go!

[and she performs this song. Since she only has a guitar, the song isn't quite complete, but she still does a rather good rendition of it for what she has to work with]

[daughterofursa]

[This is still completely different from anything Zuko's heard before, but she doesn't stop Ibuki this time since it is, she supposes, gentler. Just... surprisingly upbeat.]

I guess you can sing.

[scary_music]

Oooh, Zuko-chan, come on, come on, you should have a more enthusiastic response than that!

Something like... "Kyaaaaaa! Ibuki-chan, that was so cool!"

Try it, Zuko-chan! Let it all out!

[daughterofursa]

[Zuko would fold her arms but she still has the stupid pillow.]

I would never say that.

[scary_music]

Ooh, don't be shy, Zuko-chan...

...

[And Ibuki bops Zuko with her pillow]

[daughterofursa]

I'm not!

[Except she is, kind of. If you can be angrily shy.

Her retaliation is probably a little forceful for a bop.]

[scary_music]

[Ibuki stumbles back from the hit]

Zuko-chan, Zuko-chan! That's a strong reaction! Ibuki's having a hard time believing you! Have at you!

[Despite Zuko gave her a harder hit, Ibuki's still using about the same amount of strength as before with her counter strike]

[daughterofursa]

[What is it with these little bops?]

You can hit harder than that.

[scary_music]

Huh? Why? Does Zuko-chan like being hit hard by Ibuki's pillow? Okay!

[She'll give Zuko a much harder thwap this time. Ibuki's stronger than she looks (what with all that energy she burns up each day), though certainly not dedicated athlete level]

[daughterofursa]

[The thwap makes Zuko take a step back this time.]

If it's a fight, you should put some effort into it.

[Not that.. she can see any real way of winning said fight, but it shouldn't be half-assed, right? Who knows.]

[scary_music]

Ah, I see, I see! Ibuki understands now.

You're one of the fight hungry types, aren't you, Zuko-chan?

[daughterofursa]

I'm not fight-hungry.

To do less than you're able disrespects your opponent.

[Zuko, this is a pillow fight, not a duel, lighten up.

Oh wait how do you lighten up this is her problem.]

[scary_music]

Zuko-chan, Zuko-chan, this isn't an honorable duel of respect! It's pillow fight!

Ibuki's not a proud warrior, she's the silliest musician of all! So silly that she challenged a warrior to a pillow duel!

... Pillow fight. It's not a duel, Zuko-chan!
