Night 41: M-A Block Hallway

May 30, 2009 18:04

[from here]Recluse surveyed the hallway as he stepped out into it, looking for Marcus. Nothing. He'd just have to wait and see if he'd turn up, then. He headed for the door to the cell block exit, keeping alert for any monsters that might be lying in wait. They usually seemed to take a few minutes at least to start attacking attacking, but that was ( Read more... )

Scourge walked behind him until he finally realized that Recluse wasn't actually planning on moving on. Time to split up, he supposed, after he got one niggling detail out of the way.

"You didn't have the flashlight on. Can you see in the dark too?"

Recluse took a place near the doorway where he could watch all those that passed by, turning to look at Scourge. "Perfectly." The darkness was far more comfortable for his eyes than anything else could be.

haplesstracker May 30 2009, 22:30:46 UTC

"Huh." Scourge watched the two glowing spots for a moment, thumb rubbing against his beard. "That apply to everything else? Sensory, I mean."

So he wasn't the only one. Scourge would have to keep that in mind--the darkness couldn't hid him from everyone.

"Yes." He used it to spy on others. Marcus did the same to him. Somehow, there was a moral difference. He was glad he had done away with those things, no matter what he said while Statesman was listening.

There were two people in this hall. S.T. breathed a sigh of relief as he edged past them, his flashlight still dark.

The men's hall was fairly empty; this early in the evening meant that many hadn't made it out, concerning themselves with nightly plans, or their increasingly cold meal. Celes flipped her torch as she waited, catching it end over end. The poor thing was beginning to fade finally, as Celes had mostly depended upon other sources of light to travel.

She would wait one half-hour for the men to appear. If Dias failed to bring his men, she would go to the next block and the next after that before returning to meet Hughes.

Well, Dias had apparently lucked out - either that, or he and Celes thought alike. Either way, they'd both picked the same hallway. "It's me," he called to her as he approached; it was dark, and she was a warrior, and under such circumstances approaching unannounced wasn't a good idea.

Celes flipped her torch over to the heaviest side and wondered if the man that had vanished down a hallway in the darkness had been Luxord. His smile certainly had been white enough to have been the Nobody. She greeted Dias with a smile, "Good evening, Dias." Good being the relative term. Celes decided she was impressed with the older man - he'd hardly kept her waiting more than five minutes.

His shoulder guards were perhaps even more impressive than her own on her armor back at home (at least she hoped it was still unsold. If Locke had gotten itchy for funds...) "You look... nice." Well, at least between the two of them, they weren't particularly overdressed. In fact, Celes even felt somewhat confident in her abilities this evening. The small, dark, red stone on her necklace caught the dimming light from her torch as she crossed her arms.

heavens_too_far June 1 2009, 08:01:51 UTC

Dias nodded in return. "So do you." Granted, it'd be hard to downgrade from the institutional outfits, but nonetheless, Celes' outfit was...impressive. Not quite what he'd have expected, but he supposed something that close-fitting couldn't possibly hinder her in combat.

"The others may be at the other hallway," he remarked. "I suggest we wait for them here for a few minutes, to see if they come to join us; if not, we can go to them."

The hallways had the normal ebb and flow of traffic now. Time had hung suspended at apogee for a long moment, while he had slipped down the halls between flashes of a strobe light. Now it was more disco at the roller rink, with flashlight flickers chasing each other down the halls.

The pill bottles were still rattling. He stopped to perform a minor adjustment. The sheaf of paper he'd tucked in his back pocket fluttered out as he squatted. Good going, S.T. You had all day to write these up, and now you're scribbling directions in the dark. Some day, he'd stop procrastinating the necessary paperwork. Some other day. Maybe eventually they'd be able to do it all via computer and save trips up and down the stairs with the recycling ( ... )

"Hey, Sangamon. Got any drugs? Pens? Guns and swords? While you dig those out of the scrotal sacks you call your pockets, I have an interview to conduct! Wait here!"

And then Spider was gone again and the hallway's ambient crazy levels dropped back to normal.

Spider came skidding back into the corridor, riding through the halls on a cloud of fury and profanity.

He stopped and caught his breath, not bothering to wipe the residual rage-saliva from himself and Sangamon.

"Did you find those drugs I asked you about earlier?"

It only occurred to Adachi after he ran into another hall that he had no idea where the fuck he was going. There were a couple of lights bobbing around in the darkness, headed for what he guessed was the way out. If he remembered right, at least, everyone who was brought in to this area was a guy. So if he went out the way he came in, he could find his way around from there, right?

...Where the hell had they gotten the flashlights from, though?
