Went Out To Look For a Reason (to Hide Again)

Summary:

Cale is unconscious. AGAIN. His family is waiting for him to wake up.

A written animatic.

(By "written animatic", it means the description of what the author wishes they could draw for an animatic, if the author had the skills... but this works too.)

Notes:

There is also a really good female cover of this song, which I was actually listening to while writing this.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

Trying to be funny and stuck in a room

Raon, On and Hong are shown sitting on Cale's bed.

There isn't much more to say about it

Cale lays unconscious, his red hair neatly placed on the pillow. The kittens are curled up near him on the two sides of his head, while Raon sits his chest, counting until his Human wakes up.

Can one be funny when stuck in a room?

The window is shown, curtains partly pushed aside to let the light in, showing as the sun switches to the moon, and then back to the sun again as the time passes.

Being in, trying to get something out of it

The rest of the room is revealed: Eruhaben sitting on the edge of the bed, Choi Han leaning on the wall with a gloomy aura surrounding him, Ron sharpening his knife, and Beacrox taking out empty dishes and leaving, closing the door behind him.

Try making faces

Raon looks down on the still unconscious Cale and frowns, saying about how if the Human does this again, he will destroy the world.

Try telling jokes, making little sounds...AURGHHH

On rolls her eyes, saying that he will definitely do this again. Hong falls onto his back, groaning.

I was a kid who was stuck in his room

Transition from Raon sitting curled up on Cale's chest, to him being curled up and chained in a dark cave.

There isn't much more to say about it

A shot of Raon sitting up and looking forward with a dark, hateful expression, the shadow of the torturer with a whip covering him and visible on the stone wall behind him.

When you're a kid and you're stuck in your room

The injured, bloodied black dragon is curled up, frowning angrily even in his sleep.

You'll do any old s*** to get out of it

Behind sleeping Raon, his dream of blasting out of the cave with a mana explosion and destroying everything is shown in the background.

Try making faces

The dragon looks into the empty metal bowl, seeing his reflection. His eyes are full of desire for revenge.

Try telling jokes, making little sounds…

The dragon draws stick figures on the stone floor with his claws, using a line to decapitate the stick figure of Venion.

[Short pause between verses]

A quick image of Cale carrying the dragon out of the cave in his arms.

Well, well

Cale is shown to cough out blood as he uses his shield, then fainting as panicking Raon and Choi Han are shown rushing to catch him before he hits the ground.

Look who's inside again

Once again, Cale is lying on the bed unconscious, while his family waits for him to wake up.

Went out to look for a reason to hide again

Cale, bloody and dirty as he's being carried on Choi Han's back, stares forward with a blank expression. Next, the White Star is shown, laughing with a deranged expression as he calls Cale the messenger of the gods. Back to Cale, his expression is utterly flabbergasted, a "WTF" written above him as he wonders what kind of bulls*** is this.

Well, well

Cale opens his eyes, and then is shown getting up from the bed.

Buddy, you found it

Cale opens the curtains at the window, looking outside. He starts to sweat upon realizing what he's looking at.

Now, come out with your hands up

An adoring crowd is shown, cheering, throwing flower petals and lifting up merchandise shields. There is even a "YHW" banner visible in the background.

We've got you surrounded...

Cale speechlessly draws the curtain closed, and it fades to black.
