MHA Poolside, Wednesday Early Afternoon

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

The first indication that Loki had that something was wrong was the unbearable sound of claws against his window at way too fucking early. The second indication was that said window was nearly blacked out with...he didn't even want to think about what that was.

Stalking outside and into the midst of a fucking invasion of some sort, all Loki could do was grimace and bitch about how he'd wanted to fucking relax. Of course, some fucking...thing took immediate exception with his bitching (it was not karma) and swooped at him, claws digging into his shirt and stomach painfully for a minute before Loki got his bearings back and punched the thing in the face a few times to dislodge it. The harpy stumbled backwards, shrieking hideously while Loki examined his now torn shirt and the red scratches on his stomach. Thank fuck for fast healing.

"You fucking bitch, you ripped my shirt." The harpy shrieked in reply, almost daring him to bring it on. And, well, Loki was powerless to resist a challenge. He had no flaming sword, he had no gun but he had himself and he used that weapon to get up a head of steam so he could charge the harpy, plow into it and take it down into the pool with him.

Drowning the damn thing would work. It had to work. And, after several long seconds of twitching and more scratches, the harpy stilled and Loki left it there to swim to the surface where more harpies were already descending.

"Fuck this day," he said, climbing out of the pool, soaking wet and waiting for the next bird thing to come at him. "Fuck this day."

[Open, sure! I've been planning for him to go into the pool since Monday. Whoo!]

Ronon appeared from around the building, gun in hand and sword strapped to his bag. He was grinning like mad, excited after having taken out a few nasty creatures on the street. "Looks like you could use some help."

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"I could fucking use a lot of things but help is topping that list right," Loki said, just kicking the shit out of some harpy's head. "You look like you're having fun."

[satedan-soldier.livejournal.com]

"What's not to like?" Ronon asked, shooting down a Harpy before it could hurl a handful of shit at him.

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"The fact that these things are throwing shit," Loki said, grabbing one harpy and tossing it in the air like skeet for Ronon to shoot.

[satedan-soldier.livejournal.com]

Ronon blew its head off effortlessly. "I find if you kill 'em fast, they don't have time to throw."

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"Please tell me you didn't kill any in your apartment," Loki said, snapping a neck effortlessly and kicking another Ronon's way.

Ronon ripped his sword from his back to relieve the harpy of its head with less explosive splatter. "Nothin' the sand won't cover."

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"You fucker," he said, taking the momentary lull in harpies coming for his head to say, "Let me use one of your fucking weapons. I forgot mine inside."

The liar.

"I'm good with anything."

[satedan-soldier.livejournal.com]

Ronon wiped his sword on a dead harpy as he considered. "I can hold 'em off while you run get it." It'd be fun!

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"Fuck that, I'm not turning my back on these fuckers," Loki said, ducking one harpy's attempt to claw at his head and grabbing it by the foot. He swung it down, enjoying the sickening crack as it hit the concrete.

[satedan-soldier.livejournal.com]

Loki seemed capable enough. Hell, death by concrete even looked fun. "Fine. You break it, you make me a new one," Ronon said, tossing his flaming sword at Loki when he figured he should be able to catch it.

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"I know how to handle these," he said, catching the sword in midair and immediately swinging it like a bat to slice a harpy coming at him from behind.

Ah, that was so fucking satisfying.

"You're a fucking godsend!"

[satedan-soldier.livejournal.com]

"Damn straight," Ronon agreed, firing another blast of energy at a harpy's wings. The thing splattered on the deck like a bag of blood.

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"You're gonna have to help me clean this shit up," Loki yelled at him over the shrill shrieking and cursing of a group of harpies. "Blood is fucking hard to get out of concrete!"

[satedan-soldier.livejournal.com]

"Got a kid comin' for detention Saturday," Ronon considered between firing on the loud group. "Think it'll wait?"

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"It'll wait," Loki said, bending nearly backwards to avoid another set of talons before jabbing up with the sword and hearing the satisfying slice of successful stab. "I'll leave out some cleaning shit for him!"

[satedan-soldier.livejournal.com]

"Awesome," Ronon nodded, firing lazily on a harpy that had thunked to the ground only to rise up again with fight left in her. "But you're cleanin' my sword."

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"Deal," Loki said, hefting the sword over his shoulder for a minute and yelling, "I think that one likes you! She doesn't wanna fucking die!"

[satedan-soldier.livejournal.com]

Ronon shuddered at the thought, "Nah, she's prolly crawlin' toward you." But Ronon was making sure she wasn't getting very far.

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"Sorry, she's not my type," Loki said, taking the sword off his shoulder to swipe at two harpies who were attempting to swoop down at him. He missed one but sliced the other in half.

One out of two ain't bad.
