WEEK 2

[bathymetric]

So far, good news! You've managed to avoid killing! A week has passed in the facility, but how many more are there to go until one of you tries out Rule Seven? I mean.... we know, but.

No new areas just yet, it remains you guys and yours here for now. Well, and Angel, but again - you don't exactly see her unless you want to. It's more than a little lonely... maybe someone ought to shake things up.



SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ ooc: Welcome to Week 2, your first case week! Remember to turn in regains here, your AC for last week here, and if you like, come visit Angel's office hours here!

...It's heartwarming, overall. It's a nice story, has a nice ending.

[archboxer]

I hope so. The poor boy needs a good ending.

[nothingcanstop]

He gets one. Him and his little family, and there's a girl- I-I don't wanna spoil anything, but...you know, if it's...hitting a little close.

[archboxer]

[There's a pause. Maybe-- she shakes her head.]

It is just a story but I am glad for that. I merely have been thinking about some things as of late.

[nothingcanstop]

I don't think any of us could or should berate you for being in your own head right now.

[archboxer]

I suppose we all are, currently.

[nothingcanstop]

...It's a low-blow. But we're gonna get through this. And that Professor's gonna be sorry he ever messed with us.

[archboxer]

That is as sure as the day turns into night.

[ There's...a bit of quiet, and you know, they've been talking a bit through Phil Collins' verse of You'll Be In My Heart. Della hears it, and it reminds her-- ]

You know... I wrote a lullaby like this for my boys, before they were born. I wonder if I was...subconsciously remembering this movie.

[archboxer]

[She stops to listen. It's somewhat similar to the ones she knows, then Rhea nods.]

Perhaps. My own mother wrote a few of her own lullabies.

[nothingcanstop]

I suppose it's just a mother's instinct, to sing for her children.

[archboxer]

Yes, I believe that is the case.

[nothingcanstop]

Some things are just universal.
