[Sneaking into cabins, peering into windows, leaping over the heads of passengers is Spring-Heeled Jack.
He visits naughty children, peeking in at night to watch them sleep, and then he's off again just as fast as he came.
Dressed in black with long claws and keen to play some wicked pranks goes Mason, more of a mischievous spirit than anyone willing to cause serious harm.
Right?]

[ Instead, she has no idea that someone's in her cabin when she comes back with her pockets full of food. ]

Date: 2014-09-09 02:14 am (UTC)With a cry and a leap, Mason bolts at Mindy in one motion, arms reaching out to scoop her up]
cw; oh look mindy is talking - terrible language incoming
Date: 2014-09-09 03:02 am (UTC)[ She doesn't get to get a scream out, because holy shit who the fuck is that and why does he have claws what is he doing in her room!! She'll be embrarassed later by being caught so off guard, but begins to promptly struggle like a housecat that doesn't want to be bathed. ]
Put me down you shitdicked cockgargling jizz-spitter!
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 03:07 am (UTC)Mindy is a lot bigger than the children he's used to carrying off, though, and he staggers under her weight, attempting to lift her over a shoulder for easier carry.
God, what did he just get himself into? This girl was a maniac - not an easy pick at all!]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 03:10 am (UTC)[ Also, biting. Needy is a kicker, they said -- but Mindy? Not afraid to grab hold of a bit of ragged shirt, and try and find some spare bit of muscle in which to sink her teeth. ]
[ Those Macready kids are mean little fuckers. ]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 03:12 am (UTC)He leaps at his prey now with claws out, angry and anxious to take the fight out of her. There's no way he can carry her off like this, but he's willing to give it one last shot before cutting losses.]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 03:17 am (UTC)[ Right now she doesn't care. This isn't about being efficient. This is about her being angry and finally giving vent to all the issues she's been bottling for a while now. ]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 03:20 am (UTC)He looks at the girl in disbelief, before gathering himself up and leaping away from her. Screw this; he'll pick off some easy five-year-old instead. Rescue him from teenagers!]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 03:25 am (UTC)[ Damned if she'll ask for help from anyone. Fuck that. Fuck this whole place! She hates it here. ]

Date: 2014-09-09 02:15 am (UTC)Not attacking. Just watching]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 02:22 am (UTC)He took a slow, cautious step forward. On all fours. Creeping close to the ground. ]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 02:26 am (UTC)This wasn't a child; not someone he could scare easily]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 02:35 am (UTC)You are in my house, creature. Give me a reason to not eat you for this.
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 02:39 am (UTC)But he's not exactly a safe target, either.
With a sudden leap, he bounds up over the wolf's head and onto his nesting area, crouched in the softness and now fully in the light.]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 02:49 am (UTC)Once it game to a halt after its monstrous leap, the wolf lunged forward. Teeth gnashing and snapping. But he halted at the edge of the light. Cautious. Hesitant.
He moved. Pacing. Not wanting to cross into the light. ]
Come closer, little thing.
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 02:51 am (UTC)He extends a clawed hand to Jerry, testing the waters]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 03:00 am (UTC)He was used to a world little girls who lost their way and woodsmen with hatchets. Tricky goats and elusive swine. Food and predators. But this...thing fit neither. He sniffed again. Could this thing be eaten, even with this claws? ]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 03:02 am (UTC)He pulls his hand back, giving a high-pitched, nervous giggle. What was this thing?]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 03:05 am (UTC)You are neither child nor huntsman. Neither goat nor pig. What are you?
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 03:09 am (UTC)He spreads a gleeful grin wide, eyes bright red and scheming. He'd answer if he could]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 03:22 am (UTC)SPEAK! OR I WILL GOBBLE YOU UP! BONES AND ALL!
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 11:14 am (UTC)He makes his move, leaping for the exit]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 01:36 pm (UTC)But he did not pursue through the door. Such things were not worth his time. Not for such a lean and meager meal. ]

Date: 2014-09-09 04:55 am (UTC)Putting down the basket, she tries to let her eyes adjust to the darkness. Something tells her she's not alone, an unnerving thought.]
He-hello?
no subject
Date: 2014-09-09 11:13 am (UTC)Now here's something he can really dig his claws into.
Mason sits on the edge of shadow, watching. Stalking, almost. He begins to creep forward, silent and curious.
That red hood is very attractive, he thinks.]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-11 05:22 am (UTC)She crosses to the bed to sit when she catches something out of the corner of her eye. She clutches the red cloak, the words of her mother ringing in her ears - the cloak will keep her safe.]
Who's there?
[She hopes it's no one - just an overactive imagination running wild again...]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-11 11:31 am (UTC)One large step, and he's out in the light completely.
Hello.]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-14 02:01 am (UTC)Who are you?
[What are you?]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-14 02:02 pm (UTC)Speaking of claws...Mason extends one long, shadowed arm towards Erica, claws extended. He beckons her to grab hold. It would be much easier, in the long run]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-15 07:56 am (UTC)Do you know where my grandmother is?
no subject
Date: 2014-09-15 11:14 am (UTC)no subject
Date: 2014-09-19 04:49 am (UTC)Taking a steadying breath, she places her hand in his, hoping this wouldn't backfire.]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-19 11:53 am (UTC)Then, he turns Erica up over onto his back, and leaps off with her]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-24 08:33 am (UTC)This might not have been such a good idea, but by the time she draws that conclusion, it's too late.
All she can do is hold on and say a silent prayer that she'd be okay.]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-24 11:00 am (UTC)Some say he keeps the children in his nest, twisting them into copies of himself. Others say he leaps to the tops of tall buildings and drops them from a massive height.
He has no buildings here, and no nests. What to do?]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-27 01:36 am (UTC)She takes a chance to plead, knowing her mother would be furious if she didn't do her job.]
I have to get to my grandmother.
[This was not a smart decision. Not smart at all... Oh dear.]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-27 09:09 am (UTC)Finally, he lowers Erica back down, peering at her closely.
How do you end a story?]
no subject
Date: 2014-09-29 12:51 pm (UTC)She just looks at him, brows knit.]
Is there any way you could take me back home?
no subject
Date: 2014-09-30 12:52 am (UTC)Home..?
no subject
Date: 2014-10-01 09:37 am (UTC)[She gives him a soft look.]
Don't you have a home?
no subject
Date: 2014-10-01 11:30 am (UTC)no subject
Date: 2014-10-04 04:44 am (UTC)It's okay. Home is where the heart is.
[At least that's what her mother always said.]
Is there something you love here?
no subject
Date: 2014-10-04 03:02 pm (UTC)no subject
Date: 2014-10-06 07:50 am (UTC)Just another reminder of why she needed to stay on the path.]
