Cherry Bomb 31 ♦ Nice ♦ Solitary confinement [Accidental Video]

[blondefuse]

[The video comes on a split second before a crack skids across the screen of the blackberry; the feed shows a bruised and bloodied Nice kicking at the door of the confinement cell. She's clearly irate - if that's the right word]

Let me outta here-!! Open the Goddamned door!

[She quickly wipes some blood out of her eye, stepping further into the room

[Lenalee is sitting on the other side of the cell, knees hugged close to her chest as she glares down at her legs. She sports some bruises of her own, but at the moment they do not concern her. Nothing is happening. She sees her Innocence there, housed in literal blood-red anklets. But she can't feel it. No matter how hard she tries to reach out and invoke her Innocence, it isn't there.]

[This scenario is painfully close to her nightmares. Whenever memories of being tied to a bed, trapped in a foreign land and never being able to run fast enough bubbled up unbidden, Lenalee had comforted herself with the knowledge that she had grown past that. She was more powerful now, and with friends that jail had become her home.]

[But here she is again, trapped in an unfamiliar world, and suddenly being jailed makes the comparison too stark to miss. Once again she is powerless to escape. Nothing has changed.]

I'm sure... it won't last long.

[Nice's screaming at least serves as a distraction against her own clammy sense of claustrophobia. But Lenalee is not at all confident that this is something they can simply wait out.]

[Video? Since she's in confinement in this post XD ]

[Her tone is sharp and angry when she speaks]

A day would be too fuckin' long...

[Video] oshit, sorry, I can't read ><;;

At least we're still ourselves, this time.

[Though being imprisoned like this almost makes her wish she was someone else. It wasn't quite as bad when there was at least someone else in the cell with her.]

Fighting our way out doesn't seem like an option.

No worries darlin'~♥

[Trying to calm herself down to an extent; it wasn't Lenalee's fault..she shouldn't take it out on her..

Rubbing a hand over her eye and through her hair haphazardly, she replies]

Sittin' around ain't doin' too much either..Ya woulda thought I'd learn by now..

[nec_metu]

[Lenalee can't argue with that. But the thought of being thrown in solitary confinement fills her with dread-- if she is going to risk that, it should be on something that actually has a chance of working.]

Perhaps there is a way to sneak out.

[She picks at her shoe, wishing that it was a crimson boot that would let her kick down walls. Even without the prison, having her Innocence sealed feels wrong. It is a violation she won't be forgiving the Author for any time soon.]

Do you know how long they plan to keep you in there? It might be easier with two.

[Though one is certainly easier to have slip away without being noticed.]
