video: cursed-aged up!mindy

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

[The video feed starts. Upside down and half obscured by a pillow. There's a mess of tangled blonde hair in the way, too, the faintest streaks of purple throughout. It's quite clearly Mindy Macready's blankets and pillows. Who else would have that much 'Hello, Kitty' in one place?

The hair shifts, the owner quite clearly stirring and waking and the blankets move to reveal...

a Mindy that is clearly older. Her eyes open, one hand rubbing at them for a moment before she looks around. She's baffled for about two seconds, sitting up with a huff. Fingers run through her hair and she sighs.]

Fuck you, City. I don't want to be here again. [Yes, she thinks she's been rekidnapped. For the third time. She spots the device is on and because she is a girl of manners, she shoves it off her bed. It's still for a moment, now recording the ceiling and then Mindy is out of bed, too. She grabs the device and looks into it.]

At least the City was nice enough to dump me in my old bedroom. Now, who is here that I could possibly still know? Just for a time reference.

[And she sits on the floor, back against her bed and one knee brought up for an armrest.]

[The voice on the end of the line is impossibly weary but unmissably Australian and as such, cracked though it is, probably recognisable.]

I see you grow up just as eloquent.

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Hey! It's my favorite Australian. [She means it.]

Oh, definitely. My step-father is proud.

Is he a script-consultant for Tarantino?

Re: audio:

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Chief of police, actually. Very straight laced and all.

You don't wish to be here again? I'm wounded, Mins, wounded. Dying. Cut to the absolute quick. [Considers] Assuming I have a quick.

[helsmaiden]

[There's a black and white bird perched on Serrure's shoulder, staring at the device curiously.]

Caw?

[doeswhathewants]

Leah, Mindy. Mindy, Leah. In Leah's defense, she usually has less feathers.

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Huh. Hi, Leah.

[Interesting curse.]

sorry so late

[helsmaiden]

[ Leah nods, her speech being understandably limited at the moment. ]

Re: Permavideo

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Well, now I'm feeling better about being h---...[But then her roommate is flipping out in the next room.]

Be right back.

Permavideo

[doeswhathewants]

I'll be there. Or here, rather.

Preferring to be- wait, who is your roommate?

Permavideo

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Guy named Abed. He's currently 'Evil Abed' [complete with air quotes and the most annoyed expression ever.] Can I stay at your place tonight? If I don't, I might strangle him.

Permavideo

[doeswhathewants]

Evil.

Uh huh. Well, then yes, do stay with me. Ah- us. With us. Because there are a few of us. Except Leah is a bird. [He talks when he's nervous.]

Re: Permavideo

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

You okay? [She knows.]

Permavideo

[doeswhathewants]

Perfectly fine. And you? [He practically just winces.]

Re: Permavideo

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Try again, gorgeous.

Permavideo

[doeswhathewants]

Not fine, then. You. Sleeping in the apartment. In my room? What is the protocol for that? Ought I take the floor or the couch? Leah does not sleep, just so you know. She tends to stare.

Permavideo

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

I'll sleep wherever you say it's okay for me to sleep. As for Leah, I'll do what I can to ignore it.

Permavideo

[doeswhathewants]

Ah- just do not allow her near your eyes. Shiny things and birds, you know?

[Evil Abed is sitting in the living room, throwing pieces of cereal up into the air and catching them in his mouth.

He hears a strange voice coming from Mindy's bedroom. Probably a curse, but because he's trolling, he picks up his device]


HELP POLICE THERE'S AN INTRUDER IN MY APARTMENT!

[ooc: FYI he's been Evil Abed since the 5th. Whether he and Mindy just haven't seen each other since then or Abed has been steadily pissing her off is up to you. :D]

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Abed! Calm your tits! It's Mindy! [And apparently, he is still a jackass. Fabulous.]

action // video in case anyone wants to threadjack

[metaman]

[Yep that's Mindy all right.]

OH GOD SHE KILLED MY ROOMMATE!

action // video in case anyone wants to threadjack

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

[Mindy's head hurt so bad right now.]

How's the beard and mustache held onto your face?

[She is way too calm right now. Abed might want to take note of this.]

action // video in case anyone wants to threadjack

[metaman]

[Unfortunately, Evil Abed doesn't pick up on social cues any more easily than Abed does.]

Why?

Action // video in case anyone wants to threadjack

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Because I'm concerned about how much this will hurt. [And with that, Mindy reaches over and takes ahold of the felt, yanking it off. Please, God. Let this reset Abed or something.]

Action // video // 1/3

[metaman]

[OW OKAY YES THAT HURT.

But what hurts more is the cruel ripping of his identity.


He's Evil Abed. But Evil Abed has to have the beard. So he must be Lame Abed now. But Lame Abed is gone. Is Lame Abed Evil Abed? Was Lame Abed Evil Abed all along?]

He starts screaming.]

[He snatches back the beard and runs into the Dreamatorium, blockading it after him.]

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Jesus. [That was not the reaction she was expecting.] You gonna stop being a dick, now? I want my room-mate back.

[metaman]

[He's just gonna be in the Dreamatorium, being broken for a bit]

[tangledintower]

Hi, Mindy.

[Rapunzel just smiles and waves. Mindy got the age curse again, didn't she...this is what, the second time this has happened?]

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

[Oh, hey. She knows that voice. Mindy grins.] Hi, Rapunzel. How's it goin'?

[She already saw Serrure is her age and this pleases her.]

[tangledintower]

Oh, I'm good! I've been setting up the Jasmine Dragon for its grand reopening tomorrow!

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Need any help?

[tangledintower]

We could use some help with the decorations...and maybe security, if things get a bit crazy. That sound good to you?

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

I can handle security.

[tangledintower]

That would be great, thanks Mindy!
