[OOC: I suppose this is filtered to house 12 as he won't be answering the journal at all.]

[It's late afternoon in the town, the day had marked the first signs of the upcoming summer heat. Raven had been taking advantage of the change in weather by taking a very discreet walk through the town alone. He'd remained quiet for the past few

Comments

[And who first to respond is Repede. Greeting guest or housemates is...]

...!

[Doesn't take very long for him to notice something wasn't right when he saw Raven outside the window. He starts barking up a storm in the house, to try and get the others attention before going outside to check on Raven himself.]

[Dude, why is Repede barking so much. These teacakes were amazing. He needs this recipe It doesn't matter, as Flynn was following Lady Estellise to the living room to see what was amiss.

And it seemed like Repede was outside. So. Opening the door to follow.]

[capital_justice]

[This is not a sight that Flynn expected.] Ca... Captain Schwann?!

[crisis_rain]

[Godammit Flynn. He looks up to see the trio on the porch, struggling to stay awake. Seems like throwing the journal at the door did the job.]

Did ya have to say that... seriously...?

[inabook]

[rabidrapido]

[Repede will remain seated in the background and let the humans help Raven...although his sensitive ears are telling him, the Old Man doesn't have much time...]

...

[capital_justice]

[Flynn ignores what Raven had just said, because that didn't really matter in comparison to the matter at hand. Flynn, instead of rushing to Raven's side like Estelle, decided to stay near the door to see if any of the others were coming.

Estelle asked any question that Flynn really had, and it was pointless to repeat it.]

[rending_drop]

[It was pretty hard to ignore Repede's barking, even when holed up in his office-room-thing. After all, Repede wasn't the type to bark for the hell of it; when he barked, something was up. So after a while, Karol comes running to where the others had gathered. Oh, the many questions he had, but he decided on this.]

...Wh-what happened to Raven?

[once_knighted]

[Soon after Karol asks that question, Yuri appears in the front door's doorway, just having come back from a short walk. Something about Flynn looking out for anyone coming toward the house gave Yuri a bad feeling, so he had hurried over to see what was up.

For now, he just stays quiet, standing in the doorway and waiting for someone to answer Karol's question. There wasn't any sense in repeating it after all, and he can't do anything to help out if he doesn't know what's happening.]

[crisis_rain]

[Well might as well answer the question, he hasn't got much time left.]

My heart... Alexei was... changin' the formula.

[inabook]

[capital_justice]

Is that even possible?

[Because Flynn is the one here who is sitting in "does not know wtf is going on" land. From the looks of it, though, it seems like Alexei did something very bad. Feel free to ignore his question, guys.]

[rending_drop]

I knew Alexei was bad... But I didn't think he'd stoop this low.

[If only Rita was around. She'd be able to fix this no problem. But without her... They're powerless.]

Isn't there anything we can do...?

[once_knighted]

[Yuri looks over at Repede for a moment. He seemed oddly ... solemn, for whatever reason.

...

He wasn't going to think too much on it. Instead, he glances at Flynn, then walks over to where Estelle and Raven are.]

Hanging around out here won't help anything. ["This isn't anyone's business, either."] Let's move inside.

[crisis_rain]

[Raven doesn't have any objections, even if he does feel a little bad about dying in the house. He can't move on his own though, he can barely speak. So he just nods towards to Estelle.]
