Day 36: The Sun Room

Oct 10, 2008 10:13

For the first time since arriving at Landel's, Elle woke up feeling... almost peaceful. She lay in bed for several minutes, adjusting to certain things. Mostly the fact that her left arm was in a sling. And her shoulder didn't hurt as much as she would have expected it to, which probably meant she was on meds ( Read more... )

Another disorienting transition, and Forte was "waking up" in bed again. It wouldn't be so bad, if it didn't muddle his last memories - instead of shutting down and starting up, he was standing around, ready to keep exploring, and now he was gradually surfacing to consciousness. This human body was just terrible about flagging status changes.

One thing was certain - he was going to get sick of hearing that man's voice pretty fast.

After a visual self-check (his foot was feeling better still, and the bandages had been changed), he found his hair falling in his face again - he'd lost the last blessed piece of outfit from the previous day. Opening his drawer to look for a substitute, he found a metal ring and a rubber band holding some pens together. The rubber band seemed most appropriate, so he fiddled with it and his bulky purple hair (why did they need to give him so much?), and managed to snap the rubber band on his fingers. It was about this point that the nurse came in to check on him, and fortunately took pity and offered him a ( ... )

Last night had proven amusing, at least, and though yet again, he'd failed to see any results, he found it didn't bother him as much as he thought it might. The place wasn't so bad, once you got used to the ins and outs. Aside from the doctor, whom he would kill slowly and painfully as possible, the place was fairly tolerable, even entertaining at times.

When he woke in his bed, once again, he placed his things away before the nurse arrived, and followed her without complaint. The message board was always fun to check first thing, there were so many things to be read, so much information that people just gave away.

"Mornin'" he said to the other man who was looking over the messages. He gave him a friendly smile, even if it was just a little too wide.

Forte was just trying to figure out how to write when he felt someone standing behind him. He turned around to see a man smiling and greeting him. So far, he'd met people that were friendly for no good reason, or just acted in their own interests, but there was something about this man's face that sent an involuntary shudder down his back.

"What do you want?"

Ooh, so this one was fiesty? The short tempered ones were always the most fun to tease; they gave the best reactions by far.

"Just sayin' hello," he shrugged innocently. "Ain't seen ya 'round here b'fore." He glanced for a moment at the message board. "Anythin' caught your eye?"

Something about this guy just told Forte he shouldn't show any sign of weakness. "I'm new here, so I thought I'd find out more about these..." he glanced back at the board, "clubs. Maybe see if something suites my interests."

"Ara, a newcomer, hn?" he raised a brow curiously. "Well it's a pleasure t'meetcha. Though as always, wish it could be under better circumstances, ne? M'Ichimaru Gin." He bowed slightly in greeting, though it was in a laid back, friendly sort of way.

"Well there's plenty of clubs around. Can't say much for some of 'em, but they might be worth a look or two."

runner_up_robot October 12 2008, 23:22:49 UTC

He nodded, "Forte. Sounds like you've had a few problems. Any ones in particular not worth joining?" Sheena had said they used fake names for appearance, but he couldn't tell just what made a 'history club' different from 'arts and crafts.'

traitors_smile October 13 2008, 02:38:20 UTC

"Hnn... well, here n' there Forte-san. M' with the Arts n' crafts club f'now, but it seems like things've been a little loose with their plannin'." He shrugged, weighing the newcomer's reaction.

"Can't say I know much a' the cooking club," he scratched his head. "But seems you'll be runnin' errands 'less you're any good with weapon makin'." They served a valuable purpose here, but not one he wanted to be hampered with. "History club ain't too bad. Prob'ly the most likely t'get things done these days."

"Hm." While he was a bit creepy at first, this guy seemed helpful. Forte turned back to the message board again, noticing some people were copying maps another person had posted. While he took a page to do the same, he remembered he was trying to feign respect for helpful humans.
"Oh, uh thanks."

traitors_smile October 13 2008, 20:02:29 UTC

Grumpy as this one had been at the start, at least Gin had managed some small bit of politeness from him. First impressions were always the best. And if he couldn't just tease him later, perhaps he could actually use him as well.

"Not at all," he grinned, fox-like eyes mere slits. "We all gotta stick together, ne? Bad enough place as it is."
