12th Formulation [Audio]

[Lucrecia sounds a lot lighter than she feels.]

So I haven't seen any pitchforks or torches at my door. Just a... shadow. Haha.

Anyway, I was thinking that...

Well, this world is just--no, existence... existence is a funny thing. I...

[She's silent for a long time.]

Guess I didn't have anything to say after all. I'm, I'm sorry to bother you

^jinx, ^marco, just keep smiling, ^kevas, my cursed stars, ^veld, ^anna, omg people, ^greed, ^axel, why scientists write drafts, i'm so sorry, all broken now, ^sephiroth

*Oh, god, he really really shouldn't do this...but its too tempting.*

Nothing at all to say, hm?

[Text] intimacyphobic October 7 2010, 04:42:10 UTC

[Yes, he really, really should not be doing this... And she really wants to ignore him. But she can't.]

Marco, you can't even fathom how terrible I feel right now: I'm sorry. So very sorry.

I'm sure you are, Lucrecia.

If Redd doesn't punish you, I will.

[Okay, that might have just marginally scared her a little. A lot. But luckily, this is text. Have the last of her courage.]

A life for a life?

[...Flaming pitchforks what?]

Why'd that be happenin'.

intimacyphobic October 7 2010, 04:38:49 UTC

[The whole entire world doesn't know...? Well, that's... convenient.]

Hmm? Oh... ... nothing.

Say, Jinx, would you like to... get together or something?

standardpackage October 7 2010, 04:42:00 UTC

Ah, okay then. Whatever ya' say.

[Nope, he doesn't believe you at all.]

I'd love to, we still got that thing we planned some time ago. 'Slike ya' fell offa th' ship er somethin'.

intimacyphobic October 7 2010, 04:50:22 UTC

Y-yes, I know. I just couldn't deal with... people. It's a long story.

[He doesn't believe her; he just has to let her attempt to ignore things for a while.]

But yes, that... I have something to show you. You might like it.

[He might still be getting over his recent bout of death but Kevas needs to ask her.]

Doc, joo be knowin' how to fix me yet?

[Audio] intimacyphobic October 7 2010, 05:21:41 UTC

I've... been working on it, Kevas. But I'm not sure it's ready yet and... and I'm scared to try.

[Audio] pimp_hat October 7 2010, 05:26:33 UTC

[After what Marco said and what just happened, he's hesitant to try it himself.]

Dere gotta be a way to test it or sometin'.

[Audio] intimacyphobic October 7 2010, 14:04:42 UTC

[He probably should be... unless he enjoys rapid degeneration and death.]

Well... Hm. If I had some animals...? And a space to put them. You know, cages, tanks, subjects--like a regular lab. Thing is, I'll still need humanoid subjects at some point, but...

I just can't believe this is more complicated than I first thought. I was so sure it was right and proper.

I doubt that. Most don't say something for nothing, I've learned.

[ Audio ] intimacyphobic October 7 2010, 14:01:26 UTC

[She-she knows who you are. Well, vaguely. The network ID... She heard the name you gave over it. And Vincent... he let slip that... But you sound so old! You're grown up... how is she supposed to deal with...? There's the sound of panicked breathing until she can pull together her composure and answer, leaving the emotion in a hidden undercurrent, her tone sweet and sharp at once.]

Astute observation. Perhaps it would be more accurate to say I changed my mind on the decision to say something. Though technically, suddenly lacking the desire to say something... that still leaves one with nothing to say. It's just more roundabout than literally being void of words.

[And maybe that's convoluted enough to make him go away until she figures out how to stalk him from a distance handle him. It would work on most. It even worked on Vincent sometimes.]

[ Audio ] wutaiwarhero October 7 2010, 17:54:32 UTC

Having nothing to say and deciding against saying the something you possess are two different things.

[She has to take a moment and shake Hojo's voice out of her head. His... phrasing reminded her so much of... Oh, gods, he's still there.]

Oh, come now, we're breaking down into semantics here...

[Lucy doesn't want to tell you what's going on in her head.]

[Anna's pissed, yo. She had to watch her sort of boyfriend DIE.]

What did you do to him?

Tell me what you did.

intimacyphobic October 7 2010, 14:07:47 UTC

[Ahahaha. Yes, about that... Fffffff, this is such a mess.]

I...

Well, this... there...

[Anna sounds far beyond "you hurt my friend" angry. This sounds like... And combined with what Marco said... Shiva. Couples were the absolute worst to tangle with. She thought briefly of Hojo, feeling like it had been ages since she had seen him and just... wishing.]

I'm so sorry, Anna.

[So not answering you.]

dormant_beast October 7 2010, 14:18:18 UTC

[There's some barely suppressed RAGE right hurr.]

Where are you?

[Anna will make her talk. She has never been this enraged in her life. But hey - at least she hasn't out of control shifted yet!]

intimacyphobic October 8 2010, 02:09:23 UTC

[Ohhhhhhh, she feels it. And... congrats?]

I'm, ah...

[There is the slamming of a door and her feet clopping down a hallway.]

Still in my room, of course. Hiding from the world.

[Punishment, she will more than accept. But if someone's going to maim and kill her, she would rather it be Marco and not Anna the Tiger Girl. That just sounds... well, women can be brutal.]
