2 ❀ Action

[failguardian]

[Guess who picked up a dog mask? Yup, that's right, it's Anise.]

[So, denizens of Luceti, you might be able to find this pigtailed loli in various humiliating situation today. Perhaps she's chasing your cat! Or perhaps she's on all fours, sniffing at your shoe and begging for scritches behind the ears! Or perhaps she's trying to dig a hole with bare hands and getting mud all over herself? The possibilities are endless!]

[Why not use this time to get some blackmail material?]

[distressedude]

What are you doing? You're covered in dirt and acting like a--

[That mask. He pauses, raising a hand to his chin.]

...a dog.

[pigtailed-loli.livejournal.com]

That's because I am one, silly! [She barks at you to demonstrate, all thoughts of avoiding trouble forgotten. Really, and humans say that dogs were the dumb ones.]

1/2

[distressedude]

[OKAY FORGET HIS DARKSIDE FOR A MOMENT BUT:]

[????????????]

[distressedude]

[Cough. Okay. So she thinks she's a dog. He stares for a moment or two more before smirking from under his mask. The darkside is back.]

Of course you are. But even a dog need to be well-groomed. You wouldn't want to bring shame to your master, would you?

[Naturally that master is him. She's his guardian, after all. Guardian, pet... was there really so much of a difference?]

[pigtailed-loli.livejournal.com]

But I'm playing right now! [Grinning up at you, all innocent and happy. Ion is gentle and patient, so it's perfectly fine to negotiate with him, right?] I can take a bath later!

[distressedude]

Absolutely not! [Suddenly! Wow, that was a lot harsher than normal for him.] Anise, go wash up immediately. That's an order.

[pigtailed-loli.livejournal.com]

[Cr-cringe, and a small whine escapes from her. She presses herself flat to the ground, getting more grass over her clothes.] Ion...? You've always let me play when I want!

[distressedude]

Are you talking back to me? [His voice is cold, and his eyes even more so.] I said that's an order.

[pigtailed-loli.livejournal.com]

[What does a dog faced with an angry master do? Why, they roll over to show their belly and bat lightly at the air with their forepaws.]

[Which is exactly what Anise does, all the while shooting the most pitiful expression ever at Ion.]

[distressedude]

[Ion's expression remains unchanging, though his voice softens.]

Anise. I'm going to count to three. And you better be on your way back home before I get there.

1.

[pigtailed-loli.livejournal.com]

[Whine, whiii~iiiine. Anise is nothing if not persistent, especially since you've been so lenient with her in the past. Plus your voice isn't as scary now! She just has to keep looking pitiful, right?]

[distressedude]

[He's taking a step closer, so he may better look down at her. His arms are crossed.]

2.

[pigtailed-loli.livejournal.com]

[...]

[Uh.]

[Whimpering one last time, then getting back onto all fours and trudging ever so sloooowly back to House One.]

What's gotten into you all of a sudden?

[distressedude]

[And he follows behind her, making sure she's actually going back.]

I could very well be asking you the same thing. You've never been so disobedient before, Anise... as far as I know, at least.

[Why yes, his darkside is set on guilt-tripping Anise on top of encouraging her further humiliation. Really, he'll never stop apologizing for this later.]

[pigtailed-loli.livejournal.com]

[O-oops, you weren't supposed to hear that.]

I...I'm good! You know that! You just give me more freedom...

[distressedude]

And look what that "freedom" has done to you: you're a mess. Perhaps I've been too lenient with you until now...

[pigtailed-loli.livejournal.com]

Booooo. Ion, what's gotten into you? [She lets out a quiet growl.] It's just a little mud and grass! It'll come off easily!

[distressedude]

[These words come out particularly coldly:]

For your sake, I hope they do. Otherwise, I'll be forced to punish you.

[pigtailed-loli.livejournal.com]

[...Uh.]

[What?]

What?!

[distressedude]

When a dog does something bad, it deserves to be punished. Otherwise, it will never learn.

How else am I going to make sure you learn, Anise?

[It's a good thing that mask is there, because his smile right now is probably pretty damn creepy.]

[pigtailed-loli.livejournal.com]

Ion...? [Anise is scared now, both her human and puppy brain agreeing that this is most definitely not how Ion should be.]

Ion, what's gotten into you? Why are you acting like this?

[distressedude]

Anise, I have no idea what you mean.

[Taking a step closer.]

I'm only treating you as you deserve. Perhaps I should have let you stay in the dirt. That's where someone like you belongs, isn't it?

[pigtailed-loli.livejournal.com]

[Stop it with that yandere face ;A; ]

Ion, stop this! You're scaring me!

[Her Ion doesn't sound like this. Her Ion would never talk like this.]

[distressedude]

Scaring you? I'm scaring you?

[Taking another step closer. If she's not quick, he's going to reach out and grab her by the hair. Not quite pulling it, but enough to make sure he's got a grip on her.]

...perhaps you should be scared.

[pigtailed-loli.livejournal.com]

[Nope. Not quick at all. She yelps as her hair's grabbed, shaking her head and yelping again as that only causes her hair to be yanked.]

Ion, why are you doing this? You're sounding like Sync!
