ATEE: Partners in Crime *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

Re: ATEE: The Living Doll *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

Jeane just laughed quietly to herself, believing to have one-upped Travis somehow, and went on her way with the doll.

It seemed she was to take it everywhere with her, because it was still occupying one of her arms at supper, where she was pretending to feed it, as if it were alive.
 
Re: ATEE: The Living Doll *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

"She certainly has. That can only be a good thing. Plus, maybe it'll teach her a little something about appreciation of gifts."
 
Re: ATEE: The Living Doll *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

Whilst Jeane had her attention focused on her own food, the doll seemed to turn itself to face Travis, and give another ghastly grin.
 
Re: ATEE: The Living Doll *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

This caused Travis to give a loud cough.
"You OK, Travis?" Leonel asked him.
"Yeah… I-I'm fine."
 
Re: ATEE: The Living Doll *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

"Are you sure?" Carol put in. "You don't need some water, or something?"
Of course, by now, the doll had returned to its normal blank expression and limp, lifeless body.
 
Re: ATEE: The Living Doll *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

"No, I'm OK." He stole another glance at the doll, thinking, OK, I don't care what anyone says, that doll's haunted or something.
 
Re: ATEE: The Living Doll *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

Returning to the garage, Leonel found the doll lying on the floor. He dismissed this as Jeane leaving the doll behind, and headed back to his work, passing a shelf on the way.
 
Re: ATEE: The Living Doll *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

As if by some bizarre coincidence, the doll leaned to one side just as a hammer fell from said shelf, almost as if aimed at Leonel's head.
 
Re: ATEE: The Living Doll *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

Naturally, he flinched backwards. Looking back at the doll, he picked it up. "OK, something fishy's going on here," he said to it, "and I'm starting to think that you're behind it all."
 
Re: ATEE: The Living Doll *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

Its form flopped appropriately as it was picked up, though there was something about how it looked that suggested it was somehow meeting Leonel's eyes, though physically, it wasn't. Then, in time with the words he heard, the gem hanging from its forehead began to flash.
You can think what you want.
 
Re: ATEE: The Living Doll *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

Leonel felt conflicted. This doll was likely possessed and trying to kill him and his son. He felt like he should destroy the doll. But that would greatly upset Jeane, and he didn't want to do that. After all, she loved the doll so…
Disgusted, he cast the doll to the floor, telling himself,​ I'll return it to her later.
 
Re: ATEE: The Living Doll *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

If it had not landed thusly, it had certainly righted itself into a sitting position, to watch him leave.
 
Re: ATEE: The Living Doll *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

Leonel bumped into Travis outside the garage.
"Um, Dad, can I talk to you about something?"
"Sure thing. What is it?"
Lowering his voice, Travis said, "That doll… it's seriously creeping me out. I almost think—"
"It's possessed? Yeah, I'm starting to think that too. In fact, I'm pretty sure it tried to drop a hammer on my head just now."
"Great, a possessed doll that's trying to kill us…"
"And it belongs to Jeane, so we can't do anything about it… right now."
 
Re: ATEE: The Living Doll *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

In almost the same fashion as if she had been summoned by those very words, Jeane approached them.
"Daddy, Travis, have you seen my doll? I think I lost it."
 
Re: ATEE: The Living Doll *Me (That Guy) and Alex64*

"So, uh, how're we gonna, y'know… un-possess it?" Travis asked.
"I dunno," Leonel sighed. "Maybe when I finish work on my laser sword, we'll confront it and see what it does."
