[OPEN TO ALL/BOTH COURTS] Public Service Announcement [VIDEO]

[ This time on the network, Kaldur looks far more serious and far less in immediate danger. That's a plus. Possibly. Still, his shoulders are squared at the camera and his face unemotional and grave. ]

Three days ago, I stumbled across some worm-creatures, and with a team was able to manage their numbers. Those of you who have gone exploring may also have encountered them, and discovered as I had, that they had remarkable powers of self-healing and regeneration.

However, we have discovered a way to eliminate the creatures and to keep them from regenerating. If you sever the creatures into pieces, and burn them, it will kill the creature. Fire applied as cauterization to any wounds the worms sustains acts to prevent those wounds from healing.

[ A pause, and Kaldur shifts. ]

I know that many of us are to be opponents in this war, but this is no manner of individual conflict, but rather a threat that applies to us all, and thus the solution should be given to all.

To those of you who are considering exploring this new land, I ask that you take the utmost caution, and recommend that each travel in groups, so that you do not find yourselves overwhelmed by the sudden emergence of these creatures that plague us.

Thank you.

[ The feed cuts. ]

[ The pale, pointed-featured elf is drawn, stressed and harried, his pupils small in the seat of his pale irises. When he speaks, its a snapping snarl, ]

We are embattled now, in the low hills, with such a beast! Cleaving it revealed that the parts only... made themselves anew into separate beasts! How big must the fire be to be rid of them for certain!?

[ Celegorm snarls a florid word in a foreign tongue that sounds like a curse. ]

Fire! [ He shouts it to figures moving off-screen. ] You must kill them in fire or they'll continue to multiply!

[ He nods to the figure on the video's other side, lips pinched, and terminates the feed. ]

[ There's something almost familiar about this guy. Something he's read in Titans or League reports? It's just a tiny thing, but he knows better than to push that out of the way and mark it as coincidence. So he's locking his response as much as possible before replying. And that's not all—his Batman voice is nearly perfect, if not spot on. He's using it now!! ]

How many pieces?

[ He could find out for himself—he'd actually prefer it. But for the sake of following up on this, he has to make contact somehow. ]

[ Whoa. Okay. He was right.

...It's so weird hearing himself referred to twice, as if he was a different person. He'll never get used to it. ]

[ Except the bundle of information he received isn't what he expected. Well, whatever. He's used to being surprised, and that's not surprising at all.

...Maybe this guy was a part of one of Bruce's teams. He's pretty sure that he'd have heard about it, but when it comes to Bruce? Nothing's impossible. ]


Did you see where they were coming from?

Hn. [ A sound of confirmation—it's a good theory, even probable. ] I have a few more questions, though not regarding the worms. What year was it before you arrived?

I have other things that I need to discuss with you. In person.

The Bailey. [ It's probably the best area for him to get his Batman mode on. And off. ] Fifteen minutes.

[ And without asking if Kaldur would even be able to make it in time, he's cutting the feed off. It doesn't make him happy to be so abrupt, but for now he deems it necessary.

He also doesn't specify where in the courtyard. Because he's hiding in the shadow of a tree (thinking to himself that yes, this is ridiculous, he even changed into the batsuit just in case) waiting for the right moment to beckon Kaldur over, if he shows. ]

Over here.

[ He's making himself visible enough for a moment, then stepping back. Still visible, but not to everyone. It's the best spot in the area in case this was a trap; as much as he doesn't want it to be, he was raised by Batman. Being extra careful is necessary. ]

[ So far so good. ]

This might sound strange. [ A warning, but a brief one. ] There are lots of people here, some who have never heard of America or even Earth.

[ And because of that, he needs to be extra cautious. ]

It might be something you've noticed.

Close. [ He considers his next words carefully. ] But the date that you spoke of earlier is beyond the one I came from. You also mentioned Nightwing—a person who isn't around anymore for me.

[ Ha ha. ]

This leads me to think that we're from similar places, but ones with differing timelines.

kaldur you're so cute

[personal profile] idiosyncrasies 2014-05-16 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Well, that's not what he expected. And it makes him feel really, really bad—it was easier to say that Nightwing had gone missing or died when he actually became Batman, but it wasn't easy to see reactions to it.

Especially not when he's right there.

Time to make a decision, one he probably shouldn't. One he's probably told others no before. ]


...

[ Ugh, it's hard to break the mold. He looks away for a moment once Kaldur's done speaking, then looks back to him. ]

That's not it.

[ He loses the Batman voice for that, then reaches up to tip the cowl backwards, revealing his own face. ]

Sorry—I... had to be sure that you were an ally.

[ He's way, way too soft for this. The nice Batman. ]

[from the look of things, jason's already had a run-in with the worms, a wilderness spread out behind him that's clearly some distance from the castle and some minor scrapes and bruises visible on his skin.]

My friends and I have been out exploring for a while now. We encountered some of those worms, but they didn't always regenerate. I'm assuming it's because of the weapons we have from home -- the metal we use is especially effective against monsters, and the wounds we've been causing with them don't heal back up.

[guess who looks not at all surprised by this information.]

Clarisse is from the same place as us. I'd guess her weapon is Celestial Bronze. [not that that's really important right now, if they don't have any way of getting more weapons or raw materials for that kind of stuff.] But we can incapacitate the things long enough to start a fire and toss them in, so we should be fine. More importantly, we can move extremely large distances really fast, so if there's anywhere that's really in need of some help and is too far for anyone else to reach in time, let us know.

Mine is Imperial Gold.

[also not too helpful, even with the weapon in question held up as example. unless, of course, such metals really did exist in other worlds, because then that opens up the possibility of finding more somewhere -- even here, perhaps.]

Do you think they're intelligent enough to be purposefully focusing on the castle?
oursavinggrace: (♃is that a stapler)

[video]

[personal profile] oursavinggrace 2014-04-13 06:27 am (UTC)(link)
[jason just nods, a dissatisfied frown on his face.]

So all we can really do right now is keep killing the things and question it all later.

[ugh.]

...At least Clarisse is really good at that.

So I take it that you need fire and lots of it, then.

[ He'd been trying to stay out of this before, since it seemed handled, but this new information can't help but garner some interest from a dragon. ]

Is that so?

Hmm. The castle is not yet too far out of my flight range for me to make it back there in short order, although I fear I will only be any good for defending the walls and what else might not be inside.
