[Alice] Job 004 :: The Wake Up Job [Action/Written] {Morning of the 12th}

[Action]

[Failure.

It's the premier thought on Alice's mind as she opens her eyes and stares up at the Luceti sky, blue and almost painfully disgustingly cheery. Her wings, some feathers broken and missing, ache painfully and she rolls onto her left side, instantly regretting it as pressure comes down on a broken arm. She grits her teeth in pain and rolls away, forcing herself to sit up.

How many days has it been? One day? Two? Three? Alice closes her mind, trying to focus as memories of doctors and needles and scalpels fill her mind a thought that fills her with anger, fear, and nausea all at once. Experiments, doctors, god, she hates them, bastards poking around where they don't belong. She can't imagine how long Ginia was under their control, doesn't want to imagine that. She should have come out sooner, she could have done more, she should have...

God.

She stumbles unsteadily to her feet, a cocktail of drugs still coursing through her veins, and succeeds in taking two steps forward before stumbling against a tree and quite nearly tumbling into the river. Righting herself, Alice takes a few deep breaths in an attempt to clear her mind before trudging on, walking unsteadily along the river in hopes it'll take her back toward the village. Feel free to run into a woman in a torn and bloodstained New Feather dress at any point.]

[Written]

[It's not until much later in the day and in the safety of her apartment in Community House 7 does Alice drag out Ginia's journal and notebooks to search for any notes or information of interest. Only after she's read as much as she can stand, Alice picks up a pen and begins to write.

Those familiar with Ginia's handwriting will notice the writing that comes in under her name and face is far less neat and tidy, the legible scrawl of someone who's never cared enough to work on her penmenship.]

A few things of importance:

Hi, I'm back, everything is fine, I'm sorry if anyone was worried.

Sanji and Kay, I'll be taking time off from my serving and performing duties. Broken arm and all.

Smoker, ditto for the lessons, I'll let you know when my arm is better. Still up for finding some gloves if you are.

[There's a pause before the next part is written in.]

You know what, fuck it. No, things aren't fucking fine right now. If you want to talk to the cupcake Ginia, leave a message with me and I'll make sure she gets it. Otherwise she'll be back when she's ready.

If you have questions, I'll field them.

((ooc; For the action part, feel free to run into her at any point. She'll be heading toward CH 7 from just south of the item shop and the clinic (P and G on the map), though it's also likely she may get lost. And timelines, who needs timelines? Like Ginia, Alice is also mute, though her first reaction is to sign (indicated by /dialogue/) instead of writing.
