Day 59: Game Room (Fourth Shift)

Guy's head was still spinning from finding out that his friend was back once again. He realized that he'd done a good job of keeping his cool while explaining everything to Luke, mainly because nothing would have been solved if both of them had been reeling, but ( Read more... )

In a lot of ways, it was almost better not to think about it. When she thought about it-and inevitably, that was definitely something that had to happen-she knew she'd realize that the sound of Scott's voice wasn't altogether unwelcome. She'd realize that seeing him wasn't a bad thing, either. Scott was part of the problem, but he was never the problem; that was the extent of what she understood right now. It was too soon, and the fact that he was right there made it harder for her to just move on.

But what was moving on, anyway? From Ramona's perspective, it was a concept that was much easier when she was younger. A part of her wished she could have a conversation with younger-Ramona and ask some tips, maybe remember what it was like to drop guys like Matthew or Lucas like they were nothing. It wasn't better, but it sure as hell was easier.

This wasn't an acceptable train of thought. Ramona breathed in and out, and she calmed down. It wasn't like she could actually pull away. Why wasn't clear, but that would probably ( ... )

(hope this is okayyyy.)

When Kairi entered the Game Room, she was in a good mood. After all, she had slept during the day somewhat, and had spoken to Rapunzel about books in the library ... so all in all, a good day. Well, as good of a day as to be expected, of course. After all, it was Landel's.

Looking around the room, the redhead's eyes fell upon a ... girl with blue hair. Kairi's lips pursed as she let out a quiet oooooohhhhh sound, and found herself moving towards the girl with strange hair. She couldn't help it, really; she loved colors, especially when it came to hair color. After all, she had strange colored hair herself (no one else on Destiny Islands had had her hair color, after all. Sora and Selphie were brunettes, Tidus blonde. Wakka and Riku were really the only other two with different colors.) and after speaking to Rapunzel with her super long hair, she couldn't help herself ( ... )

Okay, so maybe it was rude to judge the girl who approached her immediately by how young she was. Was this some kind of all-ages boot camp? Her helper for information hadn't made that all too clear. This whole scenario was still pretty whacked out, and she liked not thinking about it. The girl in front of her wasn't helping. She was pretty young, though, so it was a fair judgment. Ramona didn't like hanging out with teenagers. She barely liked it when she was one ( ... )

Kairi smiled and took a seat across from the girl, nodding her head when she spoke her name. "Well, it's nice to meet you, Ramona. I'm sure you have a lot of questions. I'll help you with anything I can, since I've been here for ... " her shoulders drooped slightly at the admittance. "A very, very long time."

Watching as the girl put the other cards away, Kairi began, trying not to shove it all on Ramona at once. She was used to this kind of thing by now. "You're in a place called Landel's. It ... well, it used to be a mental asylum, but now it's some sort of military base, I believe." she frowned. Truthfully, she missed when the facade had been that of a place for crazy people. "But ... it's not," she said simply, leaning back in her seat as her eyes swept over the room, looking out for any random soldiers and whatnot. Punishment was the last thing she needed ( ... )

The infodump wasn't exactly what she asked for, but it gave her a little something more to work with. It left Ramona wondering, against her own free will, if that was why Scott was here. After all, he was Scott Pilgrim. Even if he was kind of lame, she wouldn't be surprised if he could muddle his way through saving everyone. It was one of the basic facts of life, and something she didn't really worry about anymore.

Which was why the rest of it didn't really bother her. Ramona suddenly felt like she walked into an episode of Are You Afraid of the Dark?-complete with the creepy setting and the teenager telling her the ghost story. Or was it an alive story? They were currently alive, right? She decided she'd figure out the semantics of something like that later ( ... )

Well, that was ... certainly one way to put it. Kairi blinked in surprise at the blunt words. "Um ... well, I suppose you could ... say it's like that. However, I don't think we lead meaningless lives. After all, we all mean something to at least someone, right? That's not meaningless ( ... )

There went any ease she might've been able to fake about this place. Experiments. Now, it struck her what was so deeply unsettling underneath all of this, what she was trying to ignore because, rationally, she was used to this: Gideon Graves would be proud of this place. In fact, she could easily be convinced that he was behind this. Scott was here, anyway, and so was she-it'd be the perfect way to bring things to a close. The one final trap ( ... )
