WEEK 1

[bathymetric]

Well, you've now met the brains of the operation, as well as the shockingly nice-looking young lady in charge of day-to-day business. Now all that's left is to get used to your accommodations - there's 24 other people in similar shoes to yours to meet in this building, you know! And who knows how much longer you might have them...

The daily routine in the facility quickly becomes obvious - the only way to tell time moment to moment is to check the strange device The Professor gave you, but at the same time every day the lights in and out of the facility go up, and at the same time every night they go down. Otherwise, it's almost maddening sometimes, how little happens in here. At least you have a few rooms with enough to hopefully keep you occupied. Who knows what secrets they might hold? And there's always that vending machine, if you can find something that fits in the coin slot...

[ ooc: Welcome to Peace Week! Enjoy it while it lasts. Remember, office hours for The Professor's Assistant are over here if you're interested, while regains can be deposited over here! ]

Night

[bolderfell]

...I could be asking you that.

[One of these two looks like they're supposed to be sneaking about in the dark, and it's not the eight-foot woman in white.]

[lovelikeyou]

I don't need to sleep.

[So why not hang out and watch the fish?]

I can, but I don't really want to right now.

[bolderfell]

[Huh. That's a new one.]

Still isn't safe to be wandering around at night.

[lovelikeyou]

I'll be alright.

[Jasper is the only person around here who probably even knows how to kill a gem, and that...]

Do you think someone would try to do anything? We've barely been here any time at all.

[bolderfell]

It'd be easier now than after we get attached.

It's the kind of thing that happens in prisons. The people who seem to be on your side in a bad situation... Enough time, and you forget to keep your guard up.

[As if it's the "getting attached" part that's harder to believe could happen.]

[lovelikeyou]

We're all in the same situation. We should be on the same side.

[And anyway, who kills for their freedom after less than a week? Humans will spend that much time indoors of their own accord!]

[bolderfell]

[He shrugs.]

For now. It's easy to work together when there's a common goal. But when someone decides their own interests are more important than their new "friends"...

Well, I don't intend to be broken up about it.

[Or by it.]

Trusting blindly can get you killed.

[lovelikeyou]

You can't just go through life never trusting anyone.

[She says, having never fully trusted anyone ever, but that's DIFFERENT OKAY - ]

I don't think any of us are going to get out of here alone.

[bolderfell]

Can't just go through life if I'm dead, either.

[EDGE EDGE EDGE EDGE]

It's not like I'm not playing nice with everyone. Pretty clear I'm in over my head, with these... key-cards and standing baths. But it's stupid to be out on your own. Like you want a knife in the back.

[lovelikeyou]

I can take care of myself.

[She hasn't been poofed in thousands of years, after all, she doubts it's going to happen here.]

But thank you for the concern.

[bolderfell]

[...Sigh. He pulls his scarf up over his face.]

Fine. If you enjoy putting yourself in needless danger, be my guest.

[lovelikeyou]

I survived the entire war, you know.

[bolderfell]

Good for you. I intend to keep surviving.
