Nightshift 38: F1-F10 Hallway

[shallweplay]

Though experimenting with playing cards wasn't exactly the hardest of bodily training, Ophelia did feel that the rigorous testing of her speed, accuracy and throwing power had sharpened her mind for the coming night, and she went out into the night confident that she would be able to handle herself much more gracefully than she had previously.

The pens were out to get her. It didn't matter how careful she was, inevitable one will decide to bleed ink all over her fingers in the middle of her making her cards. What she would give for some thin sheets of wood and a paint brush. Oh, black and red paint too.

Sheena only made one card using the playing cards she'd stolen from the Game Room. She was pretty sure it'd still work since she used the side with the uniform and unobtrusive pattern, leaving the playing side of the card to be the back. She made some paper ones, too, just as she'd been doing as she wasn't about to bet it all on just one card.

As Sheena, dressed in her yayoi (how she loved it), left her room to go pick up Raine as usual, she wondered if she'd test the card out on Kratos. That'd be satisfying. Eh, maybe not. She'd done a good job of avoiding him for the last day or so, since she spilled the orange juice on him. Maybe she could find a reason to not be in the clinic tonight.

It was getting kinda boring.

She was late coming back to dinner, and she was quiet, smiling at her roommate once or twice but didn't really say anything. Then she proceeded to pick at her food until the other girl left, only then standing out and moving to pace about the room, undecided on what to do

F5

Falis arrived at the door to F5 quickly, not lingering near her girlfriend's room any longer than necessary. Armed to the teeth with a pair of spears crossed on her back, several wooden stakes hanging from her waist and a katana on her hip, Falis was a force to be reckoned with.

Thankfully, she was there to get information from the victim so she could turn her skill and weaponry on the bloodsucker in question. Hopefully, this one would remember more than Kagura.

Falis knocked on the door and waited.

GLaDOS sat patiently in her room after the doors unlocked and her roommate had vanished, probably to kill as many monsters as she could get her hands on. Despite the thin cuts and the slight stinging pain in her torso, GLaDOS was still waiting, pulling her shirt back on when she remembered it was going to be dangerous to be half-naked out there.

Then someone knocked on the door. She stood up and opened it a bit, peering out to see a woman standing just beyond it. This was probably the one who had asked her to wait on the bulletin board; otherwise there would be no reason to knock.

She stepped back and opened the door silently, her eyes staring into the woman's own. The Hunter probably wasn't her real name, but it was the only thing she had at this point. A series of numbers would have been better, in her personal and computerized opinion.

[himetsuru]

Falis figured the woman was older than her, but wasn't expecting her to be taller. It wasn't anything more than something to note, though. After a moment of eye contact, her eyes moved to the bandages on the woman's neck before looking back.

"I am the Hunter," she identified herself as. "Can I come in and take a look at the bite?"

[2cuprhubarb]

"Yes." GLaDOS opened the door wider and stepped back, choosing to seat herself on the bed after a moment. She picked at the bandages wound around her neck before pulling them off entirely. They weren't too tight, but getting them back on would be somewhat difficult. Unless she had help. Regardless, the nurses would probably rebandage it come morning.

She stared at the Hunter continually, her laserlike gaze never leaving the woman for an instant. She was sure there would be questions, and prodding, and all sorts of other things. But she was still somewhat eager to get on with it. After all, there was cake to be found.

It seemed that tonight Yuffie planned to spend her time as most normal people would spend it - sleeping. Uncertain whether or not the young woman was trying to feign sleep, Ayumu kept her warily in view as she moved to prepare for the night, but still the other didn't budge from where she lay facing the wall

Sousuke moved quickly and efficiently through the hallways, always pausing to stop and listen and check to see if Allelujah heard or felt something before continuing. All in all, the trip was, as usual, uneventful.

He stopped outside of F1 and rapped on the door. "Miku, it's Sousuke. I've brought a friend as well, don't be alarmed."

[tender_cruelty]

Allelujah followed quickly and silently after Sousuke, keeping an eye out for any monsters which might decide to ambush them. He didn't hear or see anything, but he was wary nonetheless. He kept a note of where they ended up going. The women's block, first corridor. Might be a good idea to keep track of where people were.

Miku picked up her bag and hurried (the word being relative, of course) to the door, but not before tugging on a sweatshirt to conceal her arms and as much of her body as she could. It was one thing to be bared before someone that knew what she looked like under the bandages, but it was another for a stranger to see.

"I'm coming!" she called and pushed open the door carefully, as though wary of someone that might be using Sousuke's face. The stranger with him was a person she'd seen talking to Sousuke before, at least she hoped her mind wasn't playing tricks on her. "Good evening, sir."

[uruz_vii]

Sousuke frowned deeply when she came to the door. She shouldn't be moving, much less answering doors. She probably shouldn't be moved at all, but Sousuke wasn't about to leave her alone in her room all night.

"You shouldn't be moving, Miku," Sousuke said, chiding her gently. He moved into the room, trying to guide her back to the bed. "Rest for a moment while we discuss tonight."

He looked back over his shoulder at Allelujah. "Miku this is Allelujah," he nodded his head towards her. "Hinasaki Miku, my charge."
