nothingness - ??? - 02-02-2023

[div style="margin: auto; max-width: 450px; font-family: georgia; font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 18px;"]
The mind of '???' was empty. Quite simply, nothing. Not a soul to be found. Not an enigma to be solved. Just... nothingness. There may be triggers. Some wild ideas that laid deep inside of their stereotypical intricacies of perception, but other than that, nothing. There was nothing inside their mind. Nothing to do. Nothing to say. NOTHING.

And, yet, they were everything. With a simple command or a nickname assigned to them, wild transformations and complex beings could come to life. They were a tool to be used. An idea to be executed. Perhaps even a beast in the making. Maybe even the best ever seen. No matter what, their abilities led them to be physically everything and anything.

Mentally, though, they were nothing.

Nothing. They were doing quite literally that. Nothing. As The Pitt's desert sand blew in their face, causing their eyes to sting, they did nothing about it. As the salty water shot up their nose while swimming, they did not exhale. As claws raked over their side and teeth shot into their neck, they did not flinch. Something that should bother them did not. Anything was nothing. Nothing was everything. Everything was nothing to them.

Invincible, no. Immortal, maybe. They were to be swayed. Made to be taken advantage of. Made to die repetitively and infinitely, only to get better with each form. Eventually, what would that bring? A monster? A better being? Ultimately, no one knew. They did not know either. Until it happened, no one knew. For now though, it could be anything. Expect everything. Do not anticipate nothing.

With no prospect of the future on their mind or how the world was affecting their every day life, the white serval sat in silence. Not in contemplation. Not a thought. Only a blank stare out across the territory as they sat down by the pyramid's edge. They did not expect anyone to come talk to them, nor did they wish for it, but the prospect of company would be satisfying to any being, wouldn't it?

White paws crossed over one another and their short tail wrapped around their backside. The being sat upright. Their expression remained dull, emotionless. It was an unwelcoming sight, yet someone always came. Whether that be with a command or with a kind greeting, they always did. Control or pleasantry, what shall it be?

the panther was the first to arrive. sitting opposite the other with a quiet dip of his head. "hello. i am jormungand of the pitt. may i ask why you are here?" the italian spoke, silently observing the animal. it looked ragged, seeming to have not cared for how the weather has treated it.



Re: nothingness - ??? - 02-02-2023

As the dark figure approached, the other merely stared. Their dull eyes shifted over to look at the other in the face, attempting to lock eyes with Jormungand as they did so. With the other's speech, it barely registered. What was their name? What was their purpose? They had none. They had nothing. How could they even begin to explain the nothingness in everything and everything? With a muted breathing and a blink, they did not bother to respond. Nor would they ever. Not until they were given a name.

Not ragged, no. The other routinely cleaned themselves after many incidents. In fact, it was like clockwork. It appeared they were on a strict schedule, except for their wandering. It was rather unusual. How one could be so brainless, yet so kept up and clean. Even today, their fur was pale white. The only imperfection upon their body was the sand between their toes and the emotionless expression that remained as they stared out at Jormungand.

IT'S NOT WORTH IT, IT'S NOT WORKING - ꧂
    it was strange how the other one did not answer. it did not speak and pixie moved up beside jor. stopping to eye the stranger before tilting her head. are you a mute? perhaps that is why they do not speak? she mused as she looked at jor a moment. then back to the snowy creature. tapping a paw on the sand and wondering what to do.

can you write maybe? it would be easier if we had a name for you.. she hoped this serval could write or something. anything really.

the animal intrigued him. "i supposed there is a reason you are on pittian borders. i do not think i can get it out of you if i ask, not can purple. come, zitto. i will take you to olalla. perhaps he can communicate with you with more efficiency." he wasn't sure nor didn't really care how the other responded to him, it was simply curiousity that had jormungand transfixed on the other. their appearance included with their silence.

Kolds slight chuckle gave her away as she approached, tired eyes looking at the white serval before glancing at Jormungand and Purple pixie. "You're just not communicating with it correctly. Here, let me show you two." she drawled, tiredness aching in her voice.

Trying to give ??? a playful smack on their shoulder, she let a smile appear on her face. "C'mon, you ass. Show em what you can do." last time she saw them do the trick, she was a little less approachable. Hell -- first time she saw them she almost tried to kill them.

// Just an FYI, they are not new to the group and are not sitting at the border. If you re-read the post, you can see they’re sitting near the pyramid’s edge. Thank you! (MOBILE)



Re: nothingness - Olalla - 02-06-2023

Olalla G. Semenov
Male— Ardent— The Pitt— Bio.— Plot
It would do him some good to level and interact with his Pittians, whatever rank they may attain. Olalla had already been out and on his way toward the white serval and Jormungand before his eyes caught the moving bodies of Pixie and Kold; pace slowing now as he stopped hesitantly. Was it truly worth it at this point to go out of his house? He was sick after all, and had poured damn near his heart and soul out to Kold a week or two before; admitting murder to each other.

Olalla sighed, breath hot against the usual humid air as he pushed forward, sniffling lightly as he went; making note to suck it up and at least talk to the new medic that popped up on the borders and possibly renovate the medic's end of the plaza. If needed. He grumbled to himself, partially announcing his arrival - as one usually does. The beast was not an enormous fan of this white Serval, having only met them a handful of times before. They were quiet - he could respect that. But they were observant too, and if there was one thing that Olalla had learned in his younger years of people watching, it was that silence and observation were never a good mix. Especially here in The Pitt.

What the Serval was capable of, Olalla did not know, nor did he wish to find out. But there was one simple truth among the vast river of words against the red sandy paper, bound in a leather of lies. There was a quarrel between the groups, a quarrel that The Pitt had done well to stay neutral to. But, Olalla knew they couldn't remain neutral for much longer; it would go against everything they believed in, everything they were. The whole reason for living. They needed allies, but more importantly they needed enemies. Perhaps this thing could help with that. With no words to speak, no lies or truths would be said. Olalla would have to take note of that.

The beast cleared his throat, brows raising as the infamous jaguar spewed idiocy he oh so enjoyed listening to. "Jormungand, this... creature has been here for quite some time. " Olalla mused with quick chime of laughter, hoarse and rusty like a can of old nails that had been long forgotten in a wet shed. "But Pixie is correct, we can't just keep referring to... them - as whatever we're referring them to. They need a name." Golden eyes peered at the white serval, squinting slightly as white against the bright sands burned his irises. Damned these light coats. "Crunchy," Olalla said simply. "How do we feel about Crunchy?"

    the voice of olalla made her ears pin back. crunchy? oh heavens no. they were not naming the poor thing that! the mix breed mutt turned her head to kold and watched a moment to see what the thing did before looking to olalla and shaking her head. crunchy? have you ever named anything living before? we are not naming  the poor thing crunchy. she paused and sighed.

looking back to the creature and blinking. a beautiful beast, isn't he? such lovely and well kept fur.. she fell silent before her ears perked up and she let her tail wag with excitement. lets call it drogo? it means ghostly and they certainly are! she looked to olalla for his response.
