It's not like I got money for a fucking long-distance travel.

[He slams the doors but naturally, they won't open. The glass is cracked though. He grunts, takes a seat and kicks his bag.]

Damn, I gotta be there on time. Guess that's not gonna happen. Oh, fuck it. Let's have 'em wait. They're good-for-nothings anyways.

[Marlene has been mostly keeping herself inside the train walls since waking up after her incident with Hikaru. She doesn't really remember what happened that night in the aquarium car, although she does know that she's scared of the guy with the sword.

Alone, confused, and downright tired, she's been in search of her "stars", a large observatory ( Read more... )

[Zuko has been scarce as of late. Ever since learning what happened to Marlene, and what she did to Kaoru, he's been too conflicted about it all to really do anything. He's been keeping to himself, which may not be a good thing ( Read more... )

[After an unfortunate incident involving poison and a night of change turning the swimming pool into a pond with many fish, including Seishirou's sensitive nose, there's a trace of dead, stinky fish which could theoretically be followed to find Seishirou. He's sitting in a boring common car. Except not, because one of the traps has already been ( Read more... )

*Ticky is reclining on a seat in one of the cars, ignoring any smoking prohibitions that may be in place and lighting up.*

Even for a halloween prank, this is pretty stupid. This train better stop soon.

[After this and subsequently this, the aquarium car is deathly still. Seems even the fish aren't moving much ( Read more... )

*After learning from Kaoru that it was Marlene who attacked him, Hikaru went out to find her. If you come across him, he probably won't talk to you and just shove you out of his way. Not a good idea to approach him right now*

((sorry that I took so long with this, orz))

[Particularly after this and this, Marlene's feeling pretty quiet.

She's sitting in the furthest corner of the aquarium car, arms wrapped tightly around Ben. The normally twitchy bouncy little girl is surprisingly calm as she's staring up at the fish and the whales. She's so quiet that it might almost be possible to miss her ( Read more... )

*having determined Hikaru and Kaoru no longer need her help - not that she was helping, more floating around the infirmary disconnectedly - River has wandered off on her own with no real agenda as to where to go or what to do. Pretty much business as usual, then*

[If Walter was freaking out about the possibility of being placed on a train that didn't stop anywhere at any time, he certainly didn't show it. He's busy sitting on one of the tables in the train's dining car, an easel erected in front of him as he starts to sketch the passing landscape. There's hardly asound except the scratching of charcoal on ( Read more... )
