[It is very late at night and there is a Charlie moving as quickly and quietly as he possibly possibly can towards his room. Something just went horribly wrong with that last conversation and clearly he needs to go to his room and look after Chiyo and maybe sleep for a couple hours because really… that was not okay

[ yes.

suddenly, there is a Tobias in his way who is like... idk hurrying down the hall or something BECAUSE HE IS RESTLESS AND BEING HEWMAN SSUUCKSS ]

-- Question?

[ultimaverum]

[ALMOST TRIPS OVER, but manages to flail and catch himself after a second]

Tobias? You should be in bed, I can't... talk to you right now... [omg... no]

[fauconnerie]

[ he jerks back and immediately tries to puff up... the feathers he doesn't have.

and then frowns. ]

I'm not tired. [ a pause ]

What's... what's wrong?

[ultimaverum]

I think I'm on some kind of loss where I have to tell the truth, and I think it might have something to do with when people ask questions, and you should be asleep, and I'm tired, and the castle has the worst timing I've ever seen...

[Trails off... and then: ] I can't do this for a week... [SIGH SO HEAVILY. Covers eyes. SOB]

[Having just finished exercising, Helena is meandering down that exact same hallway. Instinctually, she realizes that she's behind somebody and quickly stops before careening into him.]

Um... excuse me. I didn't see you coming.

..........oh my goodness... Helena... *^*

[ultimaverum]

[Recognizes that... voice... Oh no no no... noooooo]

[Turns... slowly, just enough to see it's her, before covering his face and just... muttering: ]

You... can't really be here right now. [.....now if you'll excuse him, he's going to walk... quickly away from her. CANNOT DEAL WITH YOU ATM]

\o/ woot!

[persequor]

[She takes another step back and narrows her eyes. Not knowing how exactly to handle this situation and not thinking at all, she settles on sending a snappish, irritated remark to his departing back.]

Right. Good to know you're now a bitter asshole.

[And then she walks away to her room. :||||]

you beautiful person *____*

[ultimaverum]

[LKJSLJDF ow. bb don't be like that )8 Pauses half a second in his escape when he hears her...]

[But no. No, he really can't. He'll... make sure to apologize later... Much later. When he can lie and say that just knowing she's here doesn't feel like the castle is carving his heart out with a spoon]

[Surprise you say? Hey Charlie there suddenly going to be a duffel bag coming right at you!!! Because Deadpool had to put his clothes in something when he went to the laundry room. Sup bro]

[ultimaverum]

[LKJSDLKFJLKSDF completely... misses the duffel bag... until it slams into him and he hits the wall and flails]

What-- I'm just going back to my room...!

[ultimaverum]

[And then he breathes and focuses enough to see... who it is]

[........covers mouth]

[RUNS]

[mouthiness]

[What. What just. What. /CHASES]

You didn't catch it- Where are you going?!

[mmm_paradise]

[stealth check failed, dear. have a little japanese stalker. >D]

[ultimaverum]

[kljsdljf normally he'd know he was there. Today he's just... in a hurry. Always hurrying. Never paying attention...]

[mmm_paradise]

[faaalls into step right behind him. :D waits!!]

[ultimaverum]

[Joshua... you... loser... Will just hurry along, completely oblivious, until he has to round a corner, and he... checks around him first...]

[........AND PRACTICALLY LEAPS away from Joshua when he sees him. JESUS CHRIST HOW DID YOU GET THERE]
