[valo-kas]

under no circumstances could valo-kas physically manage to not be disgusting. them’s just the treacherous rules when you look like. that. when you're the physical embodiment of words like moist and seepage. when you look like a soft bag filled with pepto bismol and something infectious. sexy, in their words. or maybe even, a bona fide heartthrob. or possibly, a whole meal and dessert, too. maybe it was that third eye. Maybe they saw something beyond what was immediately visible (which happened to be a twitchy little mutant that spewed pink like a faucet). their heinousness was proved now in an exceptional manner as they toddled along looking like visual proof that this realm had been abandoned by its creator(s), like a threat you can see coming, stepping in the slime that bubbled from their mouth and jerking and shuddering like there was something wrong with their body, like the resurrection hadn't gone quite right this time.

goddamn uhhhhhhh... what was this place? why wasn't anybody at home? aside from the obvious phantasmal disturbances. was that it? was it the ghouls? the spookies? did they all turn into pussies? i tuned out for a bit and i let 'em get all pussified. incroyable. valo-kas thought this all without daring to consider the fact that the minute their body had been vomited back up from the wet earth as it so often was when they returned from death (this time it had been brought on by illness induced by going absolute full hog on some rotten meat, something they hadn't sought help for because they were too busy bemoaning their stomach pains in between more bites of more rotten meat), they had gotten one good scare from the current occupants of the territory (whilst reading over their In Case I Die and Forget Things notes) and shot out of there like a bat out of hell.

at least this new place where the scent led was...oh. was walled off by a bigass gate. valo-kas was very tempted to see if they couldn't just, kinda, climb up it (not utilizing teleportation because they really wanted to test their skills, here) and because they were no larger than your average housecat because mutations aside, they is what they were, and also because they were a weak little shit, and also because of the slippery plating, this did not pan out. at all. fortunately, when they fell over, the experience shifted their gaze like, literally a couple feet to the side to the gate's opening. oh. go figure. valo-kas got up and pranced on through.

"[color=salmon]DON'T MIND ME! JUST HERE FOR TANGLEWOOD!" the abomination called out to whoever might be listening. "[color=salmon]YO, ASSHOLES! WHERE ARE YOU?!"
