Tim has been hiding in his bathroom for a while since his lower half is rather garish and glowing. He finally floats out back into his room. He'll just sleep the rest of the event. If he can navigate to his bed anyway.

"Come on fins. Work for me here."

[Closer, closer...

Peace would be perfectly hidden, but unfortunately his antennae are sticking out a bit. Stupid new anatomy.]

[timisnotme.livejournal.com]

He's resorted to dragging himself along the wall with his arms since he can't really figure out how to work his fins. He spots the antennae.

"Uhm.....Hello?"

He flicks one of them.

[Peace pokes a claw out from under the bed and keeps it open, just daring Tim to get closer.]

[timisnotme.livejournal.com]

Okay, moving all arms and fins out of range.

"What are you and why are you under my bed?"

He's gonna get a pole from the closet and poke at the peace lobster.

[wantsfree.livejournal.com]

Am hiding.



*Am I the only one who thinks a peace lobster sounds like a sea food offering you give to your enemy to make them your friend?*

[timisnotme.livejournal.com]

"Hiding from what?"

He tries to navigate himself lower to the floor so he can see the creature under the bed.

[wantsfree.livejournal.com]

[Glowering at Tim from under the bed and keeping his claw trained on him.]

Everyone.

(Plus, he's been feeling safe in small, dark spaces lately.)

[timisnotme.livejournal.com]

"And you picked MY bed to hide under?"

Staying away from the claw. He's weirded out by this robotic looking lobster.

"You don't have your own room?"

[wantsfree.livejournal.com]

Have room.

No bed.

Closet too small.

[timisnotme.livejournal.com]

Okay. Now he's REALLY weirded out. This guy talks the way people have described the masked man. And he was in his closet?

"So uh... You're planning on staying down there for a while?"

[wantsfree.livejournal.com]

[Lowering his claw a little]

(This guy seems really familiar...)

Might move.

Might stay.

Not decided.

[timisnotme.livejournal.com]

"You wanna come out from under there then?"

[wantsfree.livejournal.com]

...

[Fine, he's coming out. But only a little ways. And he's still keeping his claw on you.]

[timisnotme.livejournal.com]

"See. Wasn't so hard."

He LOOKS like a lobster pretty much. But.... "You look a bit.... Metal."

[wantsfree.livejournal.com]

[He flicks an annoyed antenna at Tim]

Look like fish.

Peace not say anything.

I really like saying Peace Lobster. :D

[timisnotme.livejournal.com]

"Okay. Fine fine. I'm sorry. I assume you're not normally a lobster."

Tim swims near the bed and floats there looking down at a rather large metal peace lobster.

There is something about the sound of it, isn't there?

[wantsfree.livejournal.com]

(Crap. He can't look up like this.)

[He scoots out from under the bed and curls up in front of the door since it's the only spot in the room where he can see Tim properly.]

Not normal.

There really is.

[timisnotme.livejournal.com]

Tim sits on the bed. Well he more curls his tail up on it and leans back against the wall.

"What do you normally look like?"

Re: There really is.

[wantsfree.livejournal.com]

Robot.

[He gestures at Time with a claw.]

Normally human, yes?

[timisnotme.livejournal.com]

"Yes I'm human. You're a robot? A robot lobster."

He grins. That's kind of funny. Wait... What had he actually said.

"What do you mean NORMALLY?"

[wantsfree.livejournal.com]

[His antennae flip against his back in what may be surprise. Kind of hard to tell with a robot lobster.]

What?

Are not fish person.

Said so!

(What the heck was this human talking abou- waaaaiiit a minute. That build, that vocal sequence...Yeesh, no wonder he looked so familiar.)

[timisnotme.livejournal.com]

"I know you're not a fish. I'm not normally a fish either. I miss having legs." He grins at Peace. "The antennae are kinda a cute look for you."

[wantsfree.livejournal.com]

"Cute?"

Not cute.

Too many.

Too many legs, too.

[Of course, the whole thing's undermined by the fact that he was waving an antenna in scolding fashion.]

[timisnotme.livejournal.com]

"Nah you're pretty neat looking. I dunno what you normally look like. But at least you're not part brightly colored fish."
