WEEK 3

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! ]
philoxenia: (i'm all about you)

[ Hmm.

She's definitely making a note of that. ]


Well... with this group, I wouldn't count too much on being able to avoid people.

[Dry:] I noticed.

[Here he is with her, isn't he?]

What about you. Are you one of those who never sleeps, like Jasper?
philoxenia: (misery)

[personal profile] philoxenia 2020-04-23 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Fair.

She takes a drink of her water before nodding slowly. ]


... I don't really sleep too well, anyway. Being here only makes it worse.
bolderfell: Everything is up. You're all so damn tall. <user name="bottleshark" site="tumblr.com"> (HMM? 🗡️ What's up Doc?)

[personal profile] bolderfell 2020-04-23 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Because of what's happening? Or something else?
philoxenia: (ain't it fun-- living in the real world?)

[personal profile] philoxenia 2020-04-23 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
What's happening doesn't help at all, no... but it's been like this for a while.

[ insomnia, man. ]
bolderfell: Cool. Not my problem. <user name="nappotuna" site="tumblr.com"> (NOTICE 🗡️ Any trouble?)

[personal profile] bolderfell 2020-04-23 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
...Did he die for you.

[Jesus Jewish Christ, Therion.]
philoxenia: (at the golden gates)

[personal profile] philoxenia 2020-04-23 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Therion.

She inhales sharply, hand tightening on the bottle. ]


He-- died because of me.

[ So not too far off, as far as she's concerned. ]
bolderfell: Let me alone. <user name="nappotuna" site="tumblr.com"> (NAPE 🗡️ Let it alone.)

[personal profile] bolderfell 2020-04-23 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[...]

Did you kill him?
philoxenia: (ain't it fun? you can't count)

[personal profile] philoxenia 2020-04-23 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Out of all the people she expected to tell about this--well. Therion wasn't at the top of her list, but... ]

... I did.
bolderfell: Not sure how to stop. <user name="nappotuna" site="tumblr.com"> (WEARY 🗡️ Don't stop can't stop.)

[personal profile] bolderfell 2020-04-23 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[This is how you do it, pals, you cut the whole list by being a horrible monster.

He looks at her, then, fingers sunken deeply into his scarf.]


...Why?
philoxenia: (we're yet to bleed.)

[personal profile] philoxenia 2020-04-23 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Well--

[ She pauses. ]

I might as well have. I came home, Noah was dead, and the person I decided to trust because he told me I was important was there, holding a bloody knife.
bolderfell: People besides me can experience tragedy?! (Concept art) (!? 🗡️ Nani da fuck?)

[personal profile] bolderfell 2020-04-24 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
You--the hell. That's not the same.

[He actually seems a little worked up over this.]
philoxenia: (they once held the keys to)

[personal profile] philoxenia 2020-04-24 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
... it certainly feels like it.
bolderfell: Beasts fight when cornered. <user name="nappotuna" site="tumblr.com"> (CROSS 🗡️ Clang clang shinnng.)

[personal profile] bolderfell 2020-04-24 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
You have no idea how it feels.

[He's up and on his feet, forward three steps in a breath. He stops there, aware that he's leaving her behind, before he half-turns without truly facing her.]

Maybe you were stupid. Maybe you shouldn't believe in a kind word or a smile. But true betrayal doesn't happen by mistake.

[He stalks again towards Room 24.]
