Tom hadn't...quite been right the last couple of days.

He had only meant to step outside for some groceries. Just a little walk. It was foggy, but it wasn't that bad -

Then he saw it. A twisting, lurching, bleeding figure, darting just out of the corners of his eye. It had scared him deeply...and after just barely coming to grips with the idea that the house would not collapse on top of him, he had broken down a bit. He had said very little, remained largely in his room or working on the new Chair....

...But finally, finally he was calming down. He looked awful - pale, drawn, haunted...but at least he was coming down the stairs. As he walked out into the living room, he noticed Tim pacing...and stopped where he stood, frowning.

"...Tim? What's the matter?" His voice was hoarse. He cringed at the sound of it.

He glared up at Tom. The other man looked like hell, and Tim briefly wondered what he had been doing for the three days he had been gone. But Tim was far too agitated to spare more than a cursory glance at Tom before he resumed his pacing.

"I got caught. No .. Tigger got caught." He raked his hands through his hair and rubbed his temples. His head was throbbing with a dull ache, like something in his head had twisted and snapped back. He couldn't even leave to get himself some aspirin. He had his bottle of unlabelled pills up in his room, but he wasn't about to take those unless he was practically dying.

Tom's expression shifted to one of worry - oh, no. This wasn't good.

"Caught?"

Uneasy about the pacing, Tom passed Tim by, taking a seat on the couch and watching him with concern. "Caught him doing what, exactly?"

"I have no idea. But he had a bloody knife on him." Of course that didn't really mean he had killed anyone. Or even stabbed anyone really. He could have just as likely stabbed their pet zombie, Ellis.

But then again, it was entirely plausible he had been caught stabbing someone. "Someone caught him, tied him up, and pulled the mask off. Which is why I feel like my head is going to explode." He wouldn't be surprised if his head actually did explode, the way it was pounding. "Left a note on me for people to find."
