humans vs zombies, all bets are off, friendships mean nothing

[havocking]

[If he feels like he's being watched, that's because he is. Indoors, it's safe - the cafeteria, student union, class buildings, and dorm hallways are all locations where the game is considered not to be in effect, in order to keep non-participants from getting hurt by the zombies that are chasing the humans, or the humans that are throwing socks or shooting nerf guns or whatever the weapon of choice in this particular game is.

Midare is a zombie, and he's got his sights set on Mitsutada. He's watching... waiting... watching some more... this is probably getting kind of creepy, all things considered.]

[candlecutterpikachu]

[ Unfortunately for Midare, Mitsutada is lingering near the entrance to the cafeteria. But fortunately for Midare, he isn't quite paying attention to his surroundings right now, being on a call to one of the other 'human' players.

It seems they're discussing where the main pack of zombies was last seen heading to. Which Midare certainly isn't part of. ]

[havocking]

Come on... just a little further...

[Midare is mumbling to himself from where he's half-hiding as he watches him. If he steps just a little further from the cafeteria entrance, he'll be fair game for him to swoop in and tag him. As long as he stays on his right, he's pretty sure he can get him without much trouble.]

[candlecutterpikachu]

[ Mitsutada isn't one to pace, but this is an exceptional circumstance after all. He doesn't move until he hangs up, slipping his phone back into his pocket before taking a few steps forward.

If there's any time Midare can possibly get in a hit, it would be now. ]

[havocking]

[As Mitsutada takes a few steps forward, Midare takes the opportunity and darts out from around his hiding place. He's running right toward him! A few people who aren't playing recognize what's happening and step aside, looking amused.]

Fooound you!

[Quick, Mitsutada, dodge while you still can! Or fight back before he tags you!]

[candlecutterpikachu]

[ You're really good at sneaking, Midare - because you're probably the first person who isn't Ookurikara to see Mitsutada's utterly shocked face in about almost a year. ]

AHHHH!!!

[ There he goes, tearing down the lawn towards the cafeteria. Let's hope your legs are fast enough, because he's going to go in if you aren't. ]

[havocking]

[DAMN. Midare takes off and runs after Mitsutada as fast as his little legs will carry him, but he's not sure if he'll be able to catch him before he ducks inside. So, of course, he takes the logical course of action and gives up the chase -

Nah, of course he doesn't. They're on a lawn. It's no big deal. He fucking launches himself at Mitsutada's legs in a tackle.

Will he catch him? Who knows, but at this rate one or both of them is going to end up with grassburn.]

[candlecutterpikachu]

[ There are two things that Mitsutada could have decided to do once Midare launches himself at him. He could either pick up the pace, evading the smaller youth's tackle (but at the risk of subjecting the other to injury), or get caught, possibly bowled over, but with the chance of using his body to cushion the other's fall.

So of course he goes for the latter, letting Midare run into him. It's kind of painful having an agile boy hit you at full speed, but at least he'd be preventing some sort of nasty head bump at the very least. ]

Ooof!

[ He breaks his own fall with practiced coordination, rolling a little so Midare's head wouldn't hit his spine directly. ]

Alright, you got me. [ Said with an amused sigh, but concerned. ] You alright there?

[ He's just gonna ignore the grass burns on his arms now... ]
