Who: Vex and YOU

What: Playing with his powers
Where: All around
Warnings: Probable violence, though no one will die. Will update as needed.


A. Unkind Intentions

Up until now, Vex has done a good job of playing it cool about being a Mesmer. He's spent all his life around humans; he's good at pretending to be one, well enough. But tonight... oh, tonight, he's just itching to use that power. He isn't one to form bonds easily. Josh seems like someone he might get along with and he's acknowledged that at least, but everyone else is just a meaningless pawn waiting to be toyed with. And that's why he extends an arm toward the nearest person, intent on catching them with his mesmer powers, addressing them with a smug smirk.

"Going somewhere?"

B. Self Defense

It is, of course, possible that one of those meaningless pawns might have some malicious intentions for him. He's on alert for it, even if he may not seem like it. In fact, he's awfully calm for someone who's realised other people might be trying to kill him. Cocky, even. The reason for that probably isn't apparent until he raises a hand to stop his attacker in their tracks. You have to admit, being able to completely stop an opponent's motion is a very good defense.

[ooc: Vex's mesmer power is the ability to control another person's body against their will, and in both cases, Vex is starting off by just making them freeze in place. Since I realise that's kind of a godmodey ability, I'm willing to say it might not work 100% all the time here, so you can decide how well you think it's working at any given time. Even if it is working at 100% effectiveness, his opponents retain an ability to talk and make facial expressions. You're also welcome to PM with any questions.

I'll match formatting to whichever you like.]

"H-huh...? Oh my god," Alphys's eyes widen as she slowly turns away from him. She can't see him, her body's moving without her, what is he planning to do? The way he was smirking, the laugh in his voice...

"How d-did you... You didn't e-e-even kiss me!" But her body keeps turning towards him again, a full circle without her will. His powers don't stop her from trembling, though.

"Fl-flatter??" She's scared, but she's angry, too. Who does this guy think he is, restraining her and then making fun of her? He's never had a nice word to say, either. "If y-you're so disinterested, why d-don't you just..."

She trails off, because she's never really stopped to think of witty banter or relevant puns. There's got to be something cool and confident sounding, something that would show him that she's not worth the trouble of messing with.

"Wha-wait, wait, no," Alphys protests as he turns her body. It's so much harder to zap him, and make sure he understands that he needs to stop, if she can't see him to aim. She holds off doing so, wanting to make it count. And she trails off in her protestations as her body, somehow, opens one of the cabinets. "I-I thought these were locked? Did you d-do this?"



[ooc: "Pretty sure" oh boy those are famous last words right there]
