[the camera takes a moment to focus, but does eventually; have a half-smiling Charles. he looks much better than he did before, for whoever found him in the cafeteria. he's much better rested, at least. there's a mogwai rolling on his bed in the background. he seems to be sitting on the floor.]Aah, seems I've finally figured this out. Hello, fellow

You shouldn't say something like that. We'll all survive!

[forgodssakeerik]

[a soft smile.]

And I'm very hopeful for that, honestly, but realistically the things I've already been told do not bode well. It's... terrifying, but it's more realistic to understand I will not stay unscathed for long.

[he breathes out, a quiet heavy sigh.]

I'm certainly interested in helping others stay alive and well. I'd very much like to, in fact.

[quarkylass]

Well, I would be lying if I said that you won't get hurt...

[ She shows off the back of her right hand, where a large, red scar resides. ] My first week here kind of sucked!

wow I like that icon

[forgodssakeerik]

I'm terribly sorry for it. It seems my own first week is... rather tame.

[a glance back at the mogwai.]

A bit confusing, at that.

why thank you

[quarkylass]

It's okay. There are lots of healers in this place! And I didn't get one of those. Are they cool?

[forgodssakeerik]

As far as I can tell, they're simply silly little pets. It hasn't done much but bite quietly on my ankle and roll about my bed.

[quarkylass]

I wish I had one. They seem pretty neat, even if they are pests. I wonder where they come from?

[forgodssakeerik]

You're quite welcome to mine. I've never had a pet before; I'm not all too fond of animals.

[it's hard to be fond of something too stupid to read the mind of, and since he can't use most of his abilities on animals, he has no interest in them.]

[quarkylass]

That's okay! I wouldn't know how to take care of it, I might mess up.

[forgodssakeerik]

As far as I know, there only happens to be three rules. And it seems to have eating everything quite covered, unless you're careful.

[please for the love of god Jade take it from him.]

[quarkylass]

I dunno...are you really sure that I can have it?

[forgodssakeerik]

Very much. Incredibly sure, in fact.

[quarkylass]

Then I will take it! Where are you?

[forgodssakeerik]

Ah- currently in my room. I'm in 17D. I can meet you elsewhere?

[quarkylass]

Do you want to meet in the Biodome? That's probably a good place...

[forgodssakeerik]

..Very well, but I must warn you, it may take me a few minutes to find it. I'm still getting used to this place.
