Day 59: Sun Room (4th Shift)

Oct 14, 2011 15:38

After an intercom broadcast like that, Kurogane felt somewhat better about the little information he'd gotten from Harrington the previous night. The man only sounded competent when he needed to but was an idiot otherwise. Unfortunately that was furthered proof of the General not employing the brightest of staff members, making another option for ( Read more... )

Despite encouraging that weird boy to keep building on her fort, Erika had no interest in her own creation and was more then happy to let it stay up, so she wasn't even expecting to spend more of her time in the Sun Room. On the contrary, she had some people to start tracking down. Yet her priorities changed rather quickly when she walked into the room and saw that someone else had built a grander fort opposite of hers, one that was quickly started to overtake her own meager attempts despite everyone else's handiwork.

When she saw that the identity of the boy who was building the second fort, she knew. It had to be done. This was war. She wasn't going to let Scott Pilgrim outdo her when it came to being an annoying, obnoxious brat. It was like that was the only achievement left she had to cling to, and she was not going to be outdone by that guy. Looking at her own fort, Erika's mind worked quickly to get several chairs of her own, rearranging them and taking whatever wasn't already being used by the other people who got here first ( ... )

The same irritation settled into his stomach when he walked in and found her still working. Not only was she working, but she had opposition now, too. Normally, Riku wasn't exactly someone who had a problem with fun, but in his opinion, that meant having some sense of what's happening. Even when he would taunt and tease Sora as a kid, he had some idea of what and why they did everything. That might have been part of the problem, but it didn't make his life any less fun ( ... )

As Sync already did his part by scolding Erika about looking like an idiot while building a fort, this boy's words naturally had no effect on her whatsoever as she continued to look at her fort, deciding that she had done a good enough job with the few materials she had. If she had come by earlier and took that strange boy's advice to continue building the fort during lunch, this wouldn't have happened... Deep down, Erika was naturally aware that this was the biggest waste of time imaginable, but with nothing else to do until nightfall, she thought this was a pressing enough situation ( ... )

The fact that she brushed him off like that annoyed him, but her question was interesting enough for him to not just turn away like it was nothing. Riku thought this was a pointless exercise, but the fact of the matter was that she jumped right to his problem with it. Things like this could work against everyone's favor in the long term. But they were still going on. No discipline, no stopping. A task like this occurring for more than one shift meant that someone either didn't care to stop them-or was making a statement ( ... )

The boy, to his credit, came up with some good points and took her question to heart. She liked that, which was why Erika nodded long to some of his ideas. That first one in particular with the military deliberately letting the patients make fools of themselves was an idea she actually hadn't thought of, though she had her own doubts about that. Regardless, while she didn't have a direct answer to her own question, she had an idea, which was what they were discussing ( ... )

Riku considered her pin and wondered where it came from. Would she take kindly to the fact that he was asking? It was strange how he resented her earlier, but now she was testing the limits in a way that he hadn't considered. But he was in a position where he couldn't; one wrong move might mean he didn't wake up the next day. One wrong move might mean he didn't see his friends again. It wasn't that he was worried about himself-nothing could really make him see himself as someone who was worth worrying about, with all the pains he brought upon things-but he couldn't stand to leave them here ( ... )
