[QUOTE="Strider_Koln, post: 4965805, member: 78265"] [COLOR=RoyalBlue]Uhm... I really meant that Koln was dressed. In my post Socrates is in his coat pocket, so is he actually floating in thin air? But sure, if Clover insists, ok we'll go with this. Reality is quite fluid; while it is not relative, it appears to be very much so from person to person and ripples at the slightest touch. Such is what Koln has been learning, and driving him closer and closer to the brink of insanity. [COLOR=White]"Something on? But I am dressed!" Koln exclaims as he enters the room and suddenly stops, noticing his reflection in the television. "Oh... it is like that dream I always have. I am a child, it is my first day of school, and I am[/COLOR][/COLOR] in my underwear.... and covered in blood. I'm holding a bloody dagger... and I can't read what's on the board... everyone's laughing... but me the loudest once they go silent. You know that embarrassing dream that we all have when we're young. Er, I am sorry, I will get dressed... hopefully for real this time." Koln politely excuses himself and races into the laundry room. He moves his clothes into the dryer, the laundry gnome helping him and reminding him to put in the fabric softener. "Well, it will take a bit for my clothes to dry. In the meantime Socrates, let's see if we can fix that shower." Koln gently strokes the rodent on his bare shoulder and reenters the bathroom. [COLOR=RoyalBlue]More bathroom wackiness from our favorite insane priest![/COLOR] [sblock] He closes the door behind him, turns and notices something written from the steam on both bathroom mirrors. [VA ] l [KI ] [MP ] l [LL ] [IR ] l [E ] [E ] l [R ] _____ l ____ Koln approaches the mirrors and runs his hands over the steam, trying to wipe away the writing on the first mirror, but the steam won't come off. He moves to the second mirror, and is successful in wiping away the moisture. However it just steams right back up. Mysteriously new words form on the mirror, quickly being drawn as if by an invisible hand, "KILL THEM." Koln growls loudly, wipes away the steam in frustration, but again it quickly fogs up, and new words are drawn, "KILL YOURSELF." Koln again wipes away the steam, but lets out a startled gasp as he sees a tall black mass of shadow standing right behind him. Socrates is no where to be seen. Koln turns around and is face to face with the hunter he killed from that night. The hunter tightly grips Koln's throat, lifting him off of the ground, slamming him against the mirror behind him. The glass cracks behind but somehow Koln is unscathed. He headbutts the hunter and smacks him across the face with the lever.
