[Mello has his face up in the camera the second it turns on, shakes it around a bit to give the impression he's staggering. When it steadies, and the picture focuses in to the standard single room, it's obvious to anyone that knows him by his displaced countenance that he's not altogether himself. In some respects, though, he's been elevated. The

I'm coming to get you.

What the fuck did you do to yourself this time?

He'd knocked open all of the cupboards and drawers he could find beforehand, had managed to scrounge a gun with a pathetic one round for which he was actually greatful for as it was an offering of survival. As such he still holds onto it as religiously as he does his rosary, bounding down into the throttle of a neverending thunderstorm sending shocks through the garden he treads. There's a beckoning.

She mumbles something or another as she runs down those horrid hallways, trying to get away from the monsters and get to him, to stop him from doing whatever fool act he was doing now.

At least, the spiders have less of an impact on her now. Halle has no doubt that she has stepped on a few in her quest to find Mello and bring him back.

The thunderstorm mader her pause-- but this only time she has seen him like this was when he was on the pain medication-- so she moves quickly, running after him for the chapel.

"Mello!"

In his rush to get to wherever he was going, Mello did not stop to fully absorb the setting around him; nor is he dissauded by the lightning that strikes the grounds and strikes close, as everything surrounding the Asylum seems so artificial it's really the only place for it to hit. It's simply not there to him--or, moreso, it's no threat in his eyes. He does stumble in his haste, picks himself back up as if it was nothing at all, and without even so much as brushing the dirt from the side of his arm continues. It'll buy her enough time to 'catch up' as it were.

Send the non-combatants to the Library; I will defend them there.

[Lyle looks like he's about to say something exasperated, and truth be told, he was. In his mind, Mello's chip-on-his-shoulder call to arms didn't really say much and it sounded desperate, not like an organized or thought out venture.]

[And then Mello mentions the chapel. Is it back to where it was? Considering the monsters present, probably.]

Shite. You've seen the state of the chap--

[And then the stream shows only the empty room.]

Oh fuck, you're not even there to listen, are you?

[stromkreis]

If he wishes to put the rest of us in danger because he needs to play the hero, let him die alone.

Last time when there was weird stuff going on in the chapel it seemed significant. I've not gotten a chance to look at it yet, so for all I know it could be important.

I'm not about to rush in half-cocked. Or even rush in, period. But I'm curious about what's going on.
