WEEK 3

[bathymetric]

Well, the tail end of Week 2 could have gone better. That's the first thing to note.

The second thing is... hang on, should it be Week 3 yet? You've all gone to sleep (or... not, in the case of anyone who doesn't), but when you wake up (and you do all wake up), the calendar and clock on your device informs you that it's Sunday. In-character, all characters explicitly have absolutely no memory of Saturday.

Your sense of time isn't the only thing that's changed - a new branch of the facility has opened and become active overnight, giving you new resources and places to investigate, should you so choose. There's also a new channel on the television, though whether it's an improvement over the last one is questionable.

Otherwise, though, things have mostly settled into normalcy again, or at close to normal as you can find in this place. How long that peace will last, though... that's becoming increasingly uncertain, moving forward.



SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ ooc: Welcome to Week 3! Turn in last week's AC over here, and regains remain over this way! And for the sake of consistency, Angel's office hours remain over yonder! ]

Glad to see you're still holding together.

[He admires her resolve, and everyone else's too.

He grabs a seat, setting a odd-looking cane beside him. He can't help but notice the air tank among her new belongings.]

You wouldn't happen to have the rest of a set of scuba gear laying around, would you?

[ Della almost snorts. It's a good thing she doesn't, because her mouth is full. ]

Wet suit. That's it. [ Swallow. ] All I'm saying is, it's gonna take a lot more than this to break Della Duck.

[thieviusraccoonus]

[Please don't. Nobody wants to see chicken finger bits coming out a duck's nose.]

Guess it's too much to hope for a submarine rescue at this point. [How would anyone even find them.]

Love the adventurer's spirit, though. You're something else.

[nothingcanstop]

[ She smirks, but it's a little weak. ]

When you've been facing down the weird, unknown, and dangerous as long as I have, you have to start thinking positive or let it overwhelm you. [ ...She's not here alone. At least she's not here alone. ] I haven't met anything that can make me completely give up, and I'm not about to start thinking the Professor is that.

[thieviusraccoonus]

Love the outlook. I've faced a few things in my time myself, and... honestly? This isn't the worst it's been.

[Time traveling escapades are definitely up there.]

Usually when I have to deal with guys like this, there's a whole team involved.

[nothingcanstop]

...Yeah, some backup's appreciated at times like this. [ She gets a bit of a distant look, and- ] At least...even if it's not the teams we're used to, we all have each other. We're not facing this alone.

[thieviusraccoonus]

Even if it's not what we're used to, I think we've got a pretty good thing going. [Besides being able to, y'know, actually escape this place. And the murders.] I'll take this over going it alone any day.

[But something got his interest.] But hold on, you had a team you ran with?

[nothingcanstop]

[ She laughs, a little. ] I mean... My family. Which, I guess your team's kind of the same way. Right?

[thieviusraccoonus]

Heh, that's right. Grew up in the same orphanage with my gang. I would have never been able to get where I am now without them.

[nothingcanstop]

Sounds like a family if I've ever heard one.
