--4 [video/action, backdate to day 1 lol] Talk You Up To Calm You Down

[screeee]

[Remember, all those weeks ago, when a horrible shriek echoed through Wonderland? It's here again, but closer - inside the former mansion. With you. <3

It starts from a room on the first floor, with banging and crashing and general sounds of destruction. The enraged screaming does stop, but the thumping and crashing doesn't - it just moves into the hallway, and further into the school.

It eventually stops in the gymnasium. Not the sounds - but whatever's making them seems to have settled there for the time being.

Some video either helpfully provided by terminals, security cameras, or her own communicator (pitched carelessly to the side, sitting amongst some smaller and less interesting debris) shows a gangly, diving-suit-clad figure throwing fireballs at the walls and windows, as well as pieces of gym equipment, from volleyballs to basketball nets - and not all of them with her hands. Some of them fly through the air physically unaided, only to smash or bounce or crush against the walls and barred windows.

She screams again, and jumps out of sight of the camera, but the noises of destruction are still audible. Especially if you're by the gym.]

[Okay, so he doesn't recognize the shrieking, but when he gets a look at the video footage on his communicator, Wash does find himself recognizing that lanky figure. For several seconds, he just stares, watching the footage with wide eyes as he sees all the destruction she's wreaking, and--...are those fireballs? That's...a new one on him. Then again, seeing her like this is a pretty drastic change from when he met her on his first day.

Once he snaps back to, and realizes that oh, she's creating a pretty massive mess, someone should probably do something about that before she hurts someone. ...Or kills them. He's worried this might be because of whatever secret she has that the place is threatening to tell everyone, and it could result in him getting hurt or...worse...but they're kind of friends, right? Maybe she'll listen to him and...stop breaking everything. And if anything, he's trained to deal with this sort of thing.

It's a rush down to the gymnasium, he's running as quickly as he can and just hoping to get there before someone ends up in her way and she throws them like she is the gym's equipment. And, when he arrives, the destruction he'd seen on was not quite as bad as seeing it in person, standing in the doorway.]

Hey-- [Wash calls out to her over the noise, raising a hand like that might help her notice him as he steps further into the gym. He keeps some distance between them for the moment, just in case she rounds on him, which doesn't seem like a huge stretch with how worked up she is, but ultimately he's as concerned about her as he is anyone that she might end up hurting.] Hey! I know this whole thing is...weird and upsetting, but I don't think destroying the mansion--or school, whatever--is really going to help you or anyone else. So, uh. Maybe you should calm down?

[Okay, so he's not good at negotiations, but he's trying.]

I'm sure we can sort this out in a manner that ends in less...wreckage.

[Noises?

Those certainly attract the attention of someone else who's frustrated by the lack of exits and ability to go outside. Toothless' harness has been redecorated by the mansion to say HOME OF THE FIGHTING NIGHT FURIES in bright yellow, because evidently it got frustrated by not having a uniform to give him. But that's not on his mind, right now.

Upon hearing the screams, from the area and his attached device, the Night Fury lopes into the gym to have a look around, ears forward and senses on wide alert.]
