What's the difference between self discovery and self destruction

[iamtetsuo]

WHO: Tetsuo Shima and YOU
WHERE: Any city; just place it in the subject line or mention it in a thread. He'll be doing a lot of roaming around.
WHEN: Month of September
WHAT: Catchall open log for chaos or general activities - Tetsuo's been unleashed on America and intends to play garrys mod with it. If you wanted an excuse to fight an out of control psychokinetic, here it is
WARNINGS: General villainy (property damage, violence, possible drug use mentions, theft...) and potentially interrupting Kanedas at the end of threads

[It's a brand new month, and a brand new start; and with it comes so many brand new ways to find trouble.

You can expect to find Tetsuo engaged in normal shenanigans, like any ordinary sixteen year old. Things like threatening natives! Causing accidents or generally ignoring all traffic laws! Raiding drug stores! Hanging around on park benches or generally wandering aimlessly! Suffering from extreme migraines! All this and more in your hometown!

He's taken his motorcycle and psychic powers and hit the streets of America on a quest for ... you know what, we just don't know. The good news is, beyond checking churches for Crane, and making sure that his (glove-covered) wrist could say CRIMINAL from here until forever, he doesn't seem to have any set goals in mind on what to do. All that's clear is he can do what he wants, and he's not taking no for an answer to anything.

Feel free to fight him, talk to him, join in, what have you -- you're free to stop him but he's going to either run at the end if it's clear he can't win, or get you out of the way somehow. If you'd like to change this, talk with me and we can work something out.

I'll throw starters out on request, but please feel free to make your own. If you'd like to fight, check out his permissions first, but this is a general invitation to fight without any preamble or excuses.]

You think this is funny?!

[deadtective]

Who, me? No, no, that'd be stupid.

[iamtetsuo]

Then quit laughing!

[Does that ever work]

[deadtective]

Was I laughing? Must be heatstroke or something, sorry.

[it never works.]

[iamtetsuo]

You better watch that 'heatstroke or something' or you're gonna walk home!

[deadtective]

I might end up walking home anyway. Do you even remember where I live?

[iamtetsuo]

[better question, did he ever even learn?]

You know what I mean, so be quiet!

[deadtective]

I don't know, I'm starting to worry now. What if you get lost?

[he better have, getting Hazel's address out of her is like finding the Golden Fleece.]

[iamtetsuo]

[Considering this is his first real foray into Heropa he might not have.]

I'm not gonna get lost!

[He's lost already.]

[deadtective]

So where're you going, then?

[god help them all.]

[iamtetsuo]

Off this beach!

[deadtective]

And then..?

[iamtetsuo]

Look, I know what I'm doing!

[deadtective]

You're just awfully defensive for somebody who's got their shit together, that's all.

[iamtetsuo]

I'm not defensive.

[kid this isn't helping your cause at all here]

[deadtective]

So, what, you're just stupidly private?

[iamtetsuo]

[Just because he tells himself he's going to win an argument with her doesn't mean he's going to anytime soon.]

NO. [Kinda] You want a ride or not?!

[deadtective]

[the only way to really win is not to play at all.]

I want it, don't get all twisted up about it! [...] I'm just wondering if it'll be to anywhere I recognize, that's all.

[iamtetsuo]

Shut up and maybe you'll find out.

[by this time, they've run out of sand, Tetsuo's run out of what little patience he has, his head's killing him and hey look they can probably go ...somewhere.

Oh boy.]

[deadtective]

I think the result's gonna be the same whether I talk or not.

[you know, because she's pretty sure they're going to get lost as fuck. but Hazel can tell the actual traveling is about to start and accordingly shifts so that she's sitting forward again. all the better to backseat drive.]
