The secondary quarantine zone is not exactly buzzing with excitement... More like nervous apprehension. That’s sort of the point, given the current state of affairs (the local news isn’t exactly a nice thing to be watching right now) and a sad lack of recent updates via the journals. A few (well one) know better and are quietly placating the masses ( Read more... )

Donna is sick and tired of all the pain and angst that's been going around lately. Granted, she knows that a lot of it is out of the control of the people who are hurting, but she's still extremely bothered by it ( Read more... )

Tay, though she will not admit it, is homesick.

This has probably been a bit evidenced to her family, at any rate, by the way she's called home every night for the past four days. She misses them. Not home, exactly, though she loves Boston, but her family. She's never been away from her entire family - there's always been her dad and a cousin ( Read more... )

ALSO, feel free to say the stereo ( Read more... )

Des is in his room and he was sleeping off the drugs and the pain in his chest from that little event, but somehow sleep is failing him and the drugs are starting to wear off, which might have something to do with why sleep is failing him, but the fact that his mind is racing right now might also have something to do with it.

He died. He actually ( Read more... )

Desmond Descant has gotten over the whole fiasco in the park with Calisto and that kid as much as he's going to get over it. (Because it's hard to get over losing yourself so completely that you'd almost be willing to kill a kid just to kill the demon bitch using him for a human shield.) Which means to say that he's no longer brooding about it and ( Read more... )

Alanna can tell the doorway is more than a doorway. Looks like the kitchen on the other side.... But things don't always look how they are. Something's pulling, calling. Doesn't fit right. Curious, though, has to get a closer look, and she stumbles, falls through ( Read more... )
