I'll look forward to it, darlin'.

[ then he GOES. ]

[windheritance]

[ that BASTARD. johann simmers with SPADELUST for a while after he's gone and has to go dunk his head in a creek to chill out. goodness. goodness.

the next time he's actively waiting for dierkk to show up, pacing outside his little cave hideout impatiently. he's a little bouncy, like a puppy waiting for someone to throw a ball or i guess they're trolls so like a barkbeast waiting for someone to throw an palm-sized recreation sphere. it's PRETTY CUTE. ]

[broyonce]

[ this time it looks a little like someone carved at his face? it'll heal up, but ouch. wild. in any case he's keyed up, fingers curling and uncurling as he approaches, and seeing johann so into it is--well. ]

Missed me that much?

[windheritance]

Missed kicking your butt, more like.

[ he stops fidgeting and stretches out, then grabs his hammer. ]

You wanna go or what?

[broyonce]

[ out comes the sword. ]

Of course I do. Come at me, Johann.

[windheritance]

Get ready for it, Dierkk!

[ he GOES. by now dierkk has broken quite a few records for 'longest fight with the executioner'. he keeps breaking the record with every new fight. this time johann is VERY motivated to beat this particular fish into submission, though. ]

[broyonce]

I was hatched ready.

[ that just gets his blood pumping harder. he's in pitch dokis. he's going for it HARD and he wants to WIN. johann is just as motivated as he is though, so the best he can hope for is a stalemate. ]

[windheritance]

[ they are both really motivated. they're fight-horny. johann is maybe a little TOO motivated? like even being stabbed doesn't slow him down very much.

spades is a powerful thing apparently?? dang. ]

[broyonce]

[ it's very powerful. in fact at one point when johann gets a hit in dierkk keens, but it's not a bad noise, it's a too fight-horny to function noise. keep it in your pants, buddy. ]

[windheritance]

[ in a totally graceful and mature response to this, johann flusters so hard that he goes full anime, drops his hammer, and just fucking PUNCHES dierkk. it's like a jokey-joke 'no staahhhp teeheehee' punch but

but he's the executioner, so

he punches hard enough to shatter stone, so, ]

[broyonce]

[ wheeze yeah that just. knocks him right the fuck out. it's kind of alarming actually, how he goes limp and drops like a stone. johann didn't kill his fish, no way, but he's out cold and definitely has some like, skull fractures and a huge concussion. ]

[windheritance]

[ OOPS.

what follows is a charming sequence of johann fussing over his fish, making sure he's alive, very carefully carrying him to a soft pile, putting cold stuff on his head to keep the swelling down, and just in general fussing.

it's kind of mood whiplash to go from hyper-spades to something almost diamonds-adjacentwhen dierkk wakes up again, but listen, johann was worried. ]

[broyonce]

[ when he does wake he has a splitting headache and his face is still busted to hell. he groans and shifts a little like he's trying to sit up but that makes him so dizzy he feels like he's going to throw up so he stills instead, blearily looking up at him. ]

[windheritance]

Hi. Sorry. I punched you.

[ he doesn't have any ice, but there's cold water available to him somewhere evidently, because he has cold wet cloths he's just kind of. plopping on dierkk's face. ]

I mean I meant to punch you so I'm not sorry about that but I'm sorry about how it like, had a consequence.

[broyonce]

Yeah, I figured the punch was on purpose. Fuck.

[ but he doesn't sound angry, just kind of out of it and gravelly because his nose is broken. shattered. yeah. he peers up at him around the cloths.]

What are you doing now?

[windheritance]

Um, helping? At least I hope I'm helping. I don't have any real pain killers, so...

[broyonce]

Yeah, you're--fine.

[ which is weird. he can't do much about it though. he's too out of it. ]

How long was I out?

[windheritance]

Well, it’s daytime now. I moved a big rock over the cave entrance so we’re safe though. Are you hungry?

[broyonce]

Shit.

[ oh he's gonna be in a lot of trouble. he can't move the rock and leave even in his gear at this point, so he just--nods. might as well not be hungry too when he goes in for his punishment. ]

[windheritance]

It’s okay. I was thinking about it and I decided I’m not like, thrilled with the whole loyalist thing so I thought, how can I fix that?

[ HANDING OVER SOME FOOD ]

Then I guess I accidentally kidnapped you! Whoops! Those wacky clowns!

[broyonce]

[ he's gonna eat he guesses!!! but like, johann's talk isn't promising. he frowns a little, trying to sit up and failing. wow that concussion is pretty bad actually. ]

She's just going to--send more after you. She'll think I'm dead and send more, a lot more. At least until now it's just been me.

[ either he's jealous or worried or both. it's hard to tell. in any case it doesn't SOUND like he's super loyalist anymore. ]

[windheritance]

Well, yeah, but I’ll just beat them up? They won’t be as good at fighting as you are, so I’m not worried.

[broyonce]

She's not going to send them one at a time, Johann, she's going to send teams. She's already been talking about it.

[windheritance]

I can beat up a team.

[broyonce]

Even you have limits. I have to go back.
