Night 29: M61-M70 Hall

Jan 18, 2008 15:28

Naoya was quick to gather his supplies as the voice on the intercom spoke, both calming and reassuring--but frightening all the same. After making sure he had everything he needed (which turned out to only be a flashlight), Naoya then quickly slipped into the hall and shined his light in both directions. Just to make sure nothing was there, he didn ( Read more... )

SubZero left his radio behind, not wanting it to go off while he was trying to sneak around. Not that sneaking was much of an option with HK, but the other assassin was useful enough to take around with him, and he hadn't made any plans with Arlene for the night. She was too injured to be useful, anyway.

He found that he was the first one in the hallway, aside from his roommate SubZero stalked over to HK's door and knocked on it to get the assassin machine to hurry up.

"Query: What?! ...Statement: Oh. You." HK stepped out the door, flipping a scalpel between his fingers. "Query: Any brilliant plans for tonight's scenic tour of the facility, meatbag?" See the hallways, meet interestingly deformed monstrosities, slice them to death with a medical knife. HK thought that would make a good tagline for a tourist's pamphlet.

Re: Outside M64 icy_demise January 19 2008, 00:01:27 UTC

"We're heading to the kitchen," SubZero said, not at all pleased with HK's greeting. They had been getting along so well a couple nights ago, watching Riddick attempt to beat someone.

HK was probably unhappy with him again, though SubZero wasn't entirely sure why, it wasn't like he had done anything to make him upset. Not recently, anyway.

Re: Outside M64 arc_wrench January 19 2008, 00:10:48 UTC

"Statement: Very well. Lead on, meatbag." HK didn't have too much of a reason to be angry with SubZero, but he'd only harassed one meatbag today. That didn't fill his quotas.

But he certainly wasn't going to tell the meatbag he was sorry for being irritable.

As soon as the night began, Okita discarded his tray and went to the closet. He was eager to get out of the Landel's gray and into something a little more comfortable. While it may have been rude to his roommate, considering he might not have received the same benefits, Okita had to be prepared for his guests. He quickly changed into his white kimono, folding the gray uniform and putting it on the desk. It didn't take long for him to change into his Shinsengumi uniform, but once he had, his mood was significantly brighter ( ... )

Hijikata stepped outside, tucking that metal cylinder into the waistband of his pants, his new slightly splintery wooden club held ready in one hand. He shut the door behind him. Perhaps if his captors did not check, they would not immediately realize he had left.

It had not been locked, though. He wondered uneasily if they expected him to leave, and what might be waiting outside--

As he looked down the hallway, the flutter of a familiar white mountain pattern on blue caught and held his eye. Shinsengumi? Here?

Starting towards the familiarly dressed figure, he called out in a gruff voice, "What's going on?"

Re: Outside M63 notachick January 19 2008, 04:37:12 UTC

With little to do but wait, Okita had been playing with his flashlight, twirling it around in his hands. His usual supplies were in the makeshift bag sitting at his feet and he was staring absently at the wall across from him. He could hear people moving about, but until someone moved toward him, so he ignored them all ( ... )

Re: Outside M63 haikudemon January 19 2008, 04:46:56 UTC

The Shinsengumi member turned, and a bright light shone suddenly in Hijikata's face, painful to night-adapted eyes. He cursed, stepping back and raising a hand to shield his eyes-- and then the voice registered. Souji, sounding shocked, almost frightened as he said Hijikata's name. What had happened? How long had he been unconscious, if it was a surprise to Souji to see him here?

Lowering his hand, and blinking against the dazzle of afterimages that had replaced any useful vision, Hijikata shook his head. "I woke up in a room in that direction." He gestured down the hall, towards the door he'd come from. It grated, but he added, "I don't know what happened before that."

The purple and green flashes across his vision began to fade, and Hijikata squinted at Souji, registering the wary pose. He felt a lurch of sick surprise. Suspicious? Of him? He wondered for a mad moment if this was some impostor, or if the clothes were so odd he'd become unrecognizable himself. "What are you doing here, Souji? What is this place?"

Guy was a little disappointed that he and Okita didn't get the chance to speak for longer, but he knew that they both had their own people to meet and things to get done. When he walked out of the room a little after his roommate, flashlight and bat in hand (and his maps stuffed in his pants, which felt just a little ridiculous), he realized that Okita was still nearby, talking to another patient.

For some reason, the conversation felt private, and so he made sure to move down the hall to give them their space. It seemed like the sort of thing Okita would have appreciated.

All he had to do was wait now. Peony would probably be out of his room soon, and they could confer until Claude and Luke showed up. Guy just hoped that Luke would be able to find his way. He had made it to Anise's room before all of them, though, so maybe he wasn't giving him enough credit.

With a sigh, he leaned against the wall, setting his bat down so that he could cross his arms over his chest.

Could dinner have been any more boring? Peony didn't know whether he could appeal to a nurse or something so he could get a different roommate or something like that - preferably one with breasts, or, barring that, one less drab - but somehow he doubted it. This was how the common people lived, wasn't it? Without a choice of living arrangement?

Oh.. if anything, this experience was making him that much more sympathetic with the commoners of Malkuth. Yes! This was his plight! This was a lesson.

So he had jumped up the moment the lights flicked off, grabbed the shine-tube and the meat cleaver (which was courtesy of Jade and his contamination effect - he was useful sometimes) and traipsed out the door with only a quick "Bye!" to his roommate.

"Gai~lar~di~a~," he nearly sang as he made it outside, happy to see the fresh-faced Malkuth noble for the first time today. "How's it going? It's been so long, hasn't it?"

He didn't have to wait long before Peony emerged from his room, as cheerful about this as ever. While Guy understood that the new experience had to be pretty exhilarating for the emperor, it really made him wonder if there was anything that got the man down.

Then again, it wasn't like his staying positive was a bad thing. It wasn't something most people could pull off. Guy figured he was doing all right on that front.

"I guess it has, huh," he said with a quick smile as he pushed off of the wall and turned to face the other man more directly. They had spoken over the bulletin board earlier in the day, but that was hardly the same. "I've been all right -- had a pretty good day. How about you?"

Gailardia seemed to be in pretty high spirits as well, though of course more reserved. That was just how he was. Unshakable! ..Until there was a woman near, but that was just part of his charm, wasn't it? In any case, he was a good grounding influence, or something like that.

Which was, admittedly, rather necessary in this place. Peony needed something like that, especially when stupid Jade had disappeared like he did! Where could he have gotten off to, anyway..?

"Oh, it was actually very usual," Peony thought out loud. "I talked to some pretty girls, I had a good nap.. I could have used a trip to the bath, though, come to think about it." He could have gone, but it wouldn't have been the experience that showers seemed to be normally here. Large groups of naked guys weren't sexy or anything, but they were certainly an experience. And an important cultural part of Landel's! And also slightly hilarious ( ... )

Sanji stepped out of his room looking the happiest he had since he arrived. The obvious reasoning for this was the lit cigarette currently dangling from his lips. He'd only taken the one - the rest were to be rationed as he felt was best or until he could get his hands on another pack or so. The idea of rationing them still made him grumble inwardly, but it was much better than the alternative.

There were others in the hall, so he didn't stick around long. He didn't want to risk anyone trying to get their hands on his smokes. There weren't enough to go around. Thankfully, the room Zoro had mentioned on the bulletin board was in the hall right next to his own.

Busy day, busy night? Or so it seemed at least. Seishirou had pulled out his fudas when the dinner had been served. Oddly today he had been alone. No Byakko around while he nibbled on his dinner and worked on a spell. One way or another, it didn't matter to Seishirou if he had a roommate or not. The room they had shared seemed to be just a place to eat his dinner and wake up from after all ( ... )
