ITP: A flying monkey!

[mini_meatbun]

[So, Goku here might not be able to read, but he does know enough to recognize his name or things like "don't touch" or "stay out" or "stupid monkey". He is also smart enough to know he doesn't know the entire context so he probably shouldn't listen to such little snippets of writing.

Hence how he found himself in one of the armories during his daily bout of exploration of Midgard. Specifically strapping on a shining metal backpack just outside of it and--hello? What does this button do?

Oh. Apparently it's a jetpack. Luckily one equipped with a force field so the monkey doesn't get himself hurt while he's flying around in the thing. Unfortunately he has no idea what he's doing so it's more like a missile is hitting the city. Seriously.

The little alley with all the street vendors selling wares? Toppled in his wake, a great wind trailing behind him.

A few of the factories in the Foundry area? Well, they now have a huge chunk taken out of them thanks to a collision with Jetpack Monkey™ who just keeps on flying!]

AAAAAAAAHHHHH! THIS IS SOOOOO COOOOOOOOOL!!!

[Fortunately for all involved, including the giddy and now slightly green Goku, the jetpack eventually runs out of steam and he goes skidding on the ground--on his back, fortunately. Somehow he manages to slip out of the straps of the thing and sits up, looking like he'll be sick with how he sways.

Then he jumps to his feet and pumps a fist in the air.]

I wanna do that again!

(ooc: Feel free to threadjack each other if necessary and don't hold back with how angry anyone is about this. ICA==ICC, right?)

*Ever seen a ghost pull a Marilyn Monroe? Now you have.*

KYAAAAAA! WHAT THE HELL?!

[mini_meatbun]

SOOORRYYYYYYYYYYYY! [Wow, that's some Doppler Effect there.]

[departed_child_of_gods]

You FREAKING LITTLE MONKEY! I'M GONNA GET YOU!

*You now have a pissed off ghost trying to follow after you while shooting lightning bolts! GRAZE GRAZE GRAZE!*

[mini_meatbun]

[It's only Epic Luck and possibly being made from Adamantium that he keeps only getting grazed! Don't mind him doing a barrel roll and winding up next to her somehow.]

Hey! How do I make this thing go faster? [Time of his life, really.]

[departed_child_of_gods]

WHY THE HELL ARE YOU ASKING ME?! I'M TRYING TO SHOOT YOU DOWN!

*With a few bolts for emphasis.*

[mini_meatbun]

[That startles him.]

Why? I've never done this before! Did you know there were backpacks that could fly?

[departed_child_of_gods]

I DON'T CARE!

*Yeah, she's pissed.*

[mini_meatbun]

But it's cool!

[Yeah, he's oblivious.]

[departed_child_of_gods]

Are you a COMPLETE moron, or are you actually TRYING to make a fool out of me?!

[mini_meatbun]

Are you related to Konzen?

[Seriously, all she needs is blond hair and she'll beat an eery resemblance to his favorite person ever.]

[departed_child_of_gods]

...Well, that answers THAT question. I have no idea who you're talking about.

[mini_meatbun]

I live with him back home! He's reeeeeeally cranky and really likes to do paperwork! And he's got hair that looks like the sun!

[departed_child_of_gods]

*God. Damnit. How do you stay murderously irate at a kid like this? At most, all you can really do is feel a baseline annoyance.*

Right. I cannot imagine why he would be cranky with such charming individuals as you around.

[alchemic_waves]

[And here would be Constance glaring since the market that was destroyed? Yeah she was actually in the middle of it having been looking at ceramics she had been debating getting for plants. Though the glare did soften when she saw the damage, more worried now.]

[Hearing the child's last comment though, had her face palming.]

Maybe after you clean up the mess you made. I'm not going to use my alchemy to repair everything.

[mini_meatbun]

[Goku turns around, sees the smoking crater he left behind, then turns to Constance with a sheepish look.]

Uhhhh.... sorry?

[alchemic_waves]

[She taps her wrist to her hip flicking a spray of water from her glove at the smoking wreckage.] You're not hurt are you?

[Yeah she's going into protective mode, because little kids shouldn't do dangerous things]

[mini_meatbun]

[He's kind of jumping in place to get a better look in the distance of the damage he did.]

I'm fine! What about you?

[alchemic_waves]

I'm good, you're lucky I was able to deflect larger shards from hitting people, though I think I upset some of them with the water works. [she's climbing up behind him curious to see the damage as well.]

What was that contraption anyway? Never seen anything like it.

[mini_meatbun]

Neither have I! I just hit a button an' the next thing I know, I'm flyin'! It was so awesome goin' through the sky like that!

[It clearly reads JETPACK in bright yellow letters down the side. :|b]

[alchemic_waves]

Jetpack... [Yeah she's catching the letters.] You can't read can you?

[Though Constance is trying to figure out what a jet is, after all only things that fly in the air that are man made back home are fireworks and other firearms, nothing to the speeds Goku had hit.]

Whoah, that damage, you're lucky you could get up and walk around. [She's looking at the chimneys that are damaged.]

[mini_meatbun]

I can read my name! [And he sounds so proud of that as he follows after Constance, then looks sheepish about the damage.]

Hey, it's not like I knew I'd make a mess like that!

[alchemic_waves]

[Constance smiled at him.] It's alright, what is your name anyway? I'm Constance. [She jumps down the rubble carefully, managing to get back to the ground before she taps her wrist to her hip and kneels touching the ground to at least patch up some of the crash zone.]

Which is why you're lucky. You should be careful messing with things you don't understand here. [She's not trying to scold him. She's just telling him he should be more careful.]

[puppy_lancer]

[Lancer barely jumps out of the way to avoid a collision.]

Hey, watch it!

[mini_meatbun]

WHEEEEEEEEEE!!! [HEAR THAT DOPPLER!]

[puppy_lancer]

[Lancer growls and decides to chase after the haphazard flier.]

Get back here!

[mini_meatbun]

[If he could he probably would. For now? Enjoy chasing after ROCKET MONKEY!]

[puppy_lancer]

[Despite being the fastest Servant, Lancer is on the ground while the monkey is in the air. As a result, his progress is hampered by crowds, vehicles, and other things. And unlike the monkey, he actually cared about what he was bumping into.]

Don't just fly off!

[thedarkheir]

[There's a little white bat that's been flying around the city. It saw the incoming jetpack and let out a loud screech, trying to outfly it]

[mini_meatbun]

[Somehow, Soma has activated homing mode on the jetpack.

Enjoy having a kid shrieking with laughter basically strapped to a rocket chasing you, Soma. 8Db]

[thedarkheir]

(ohshiohshitohshiohshiohshiohshiiiiiiiii-)

[Soma banks hard, gliding down an alleyway, trying to sake it off]

[mini_meatbun]

[Not going to work as Goku puts all his body weight in turning to see where Soma goes, which helps the jetpack's turn enough it turns perfectly into the alley right after him!]

[hegemonstratos]

*Oh for the love of every single god in the entire multi-verse...*

What do you think you're doing?

[mini_meatbun]

Uhhhh.... playing? You wanna try it with me?

[He just looks so hopeful about it, too.]

[hegemonstratos]

You're destroying more of the city than our enemies have!

[orewagundamda]

[Suddenly, Setsuna is very happy that modernized warfare back home was centered around large piloted robots that (for the most part) required a good amount of training to use instead of small, specialized equipment meant to be worn on one's person for ease of use.]

[It meant that there were many incedents like this occuring in military bases. He's also glad that he's wearing a helmet right now as he tried to catch the kid in his Gundam, otherwise he'd be facepalming at this moron's shenanigans.] This is someone dedicated to the defense of Midgard? [linefacelinefacelineface]

[mini_meatbun]

WHOA! COOL! IS THAT A GIANT ROBOT? [Goku tries to twist to get a better look and winds up turning the jetpack so it's going head-on for Setsuna's gundam.]

[orewagundamda]

[What is dodging? Setsuna's staying put to see what this kid will do.]
