[202 is sat on the edge of one of the city's many new fountains when she starts her video feed, one hand trailing absentmindedly in its water. She looks, to be frank, wrung-out. Dark circles curve under dulled, half-lidded eyes and when she speaks even that seems to take quite a bit of effort.]...I didn't mind the changes to the city, initially. I ( Read more... )

I've been seeing a lot of fairy tale elements.

[video- locked] unit_202 May 10 2011, 05:44:09 UTC

Mmhmm-- So I've heard. But even-- [She's interrupted by another yawn, then continues after a brief "excuse me,"] --in the 'old' city, that wouldn't really be that unusual. Considering the diversity of the population, I mean. Do you think it's otherwise remarkable somehow?

[video- locked] trenchcoatthief May 10 2011, 05:51:46 UTC

Yes, because they all seem to be from the more well known story tellers, like the Grimm Brothers, and Hans Christian Anderson. If the examples were from different cultures or parts of the world, I wouldn't have been so interested.

[video- locked] unit_202 May 10 2011, 05:56:39 UTC

...That's a very valid point. [A slow, thoughtful nod.] So the city's change has perhaps been a deliberately-engineered thing, then... But by whom?

[D had been walking, just enjoying the day, when a young woman drew his attention. He listened to what she said to her watch, but he was far more concerned with the the way the poor girl..... creature, held herself.]

You look exhausted dear.

[202 must be really off her game-- The soft voice is her first indication that she's not alone. Blinking groggily up at the source, she attempts a polite smile.]

I'm... [She chuckles wearily.] It's that obvious?

[Action foreveah] thisischinatown May 10 2011, 05:50:29 UTC

[D sat down next to her, gently brushing a hand over his lap, removing the wrinkles from his cheongsam.] If you weren't obviously tired I would think that you had been in a fight. [He gestures to the dark circles]

[One hand moves to her face, as if she anticipates something tactile, and then drops again. Smiling ruefully, she shakes her head.]

Only one against Morpheus, I suppose-- But I'm being rude. I don't believe we've met before, have we, miss...?

[Goro looks at the screen] A coverup...? So they're lying? Ah! Are you okay? You look popula tired, 202.

[video] unit_202 May 10 2011, 05:51:13 UTC

[202 smiles sleepily at Goro's image on her screen. She always acts so kind to her, it's nice...] I'm all right, miss Goro, just... I suppose I haven't been sleeping well lately. I wonder if it's not something to do with the city's changes, really-- I've never in my life had trouble sleeping. ...But yes, I think we're being lied to. I don't know who by, except to assume it's the "Royalty" here... They weren't around before, after all.

[video] frillsalwayswin May 10 2011, 05:55:46 UTC

[Goro's eyes light up.] Hey! They weren't! That's right! [Sitting back with a "Woah.. I never even thought about that!", Goro speaks up] Um.. When I can't sleep, I have tea and that helps. And- you have? There were other people on here who said the same thing- I can look for it! [Pause] ..Wait. I can't. I don't know how to make this go backwards. Sorry..

But I can make you tea! And you can sleep in my bed if you want!

[video] unit_202 May 10 2011, 06:10:27 UTC

[She freezes for a moment at that, actually overcome by the girl's generosity.] I... Miss Goro, that's very sweet of you to offer... Perhaps tea might help. I do drink a lot of coffee, perhaps too much? Though it's never been problematic before...

Who else theorized about these things, can you recall? I'm sure between us we can make sense of the communicators, but in the interim...

[Oh, now that's interesting.]

Tired?

[It is worth noting that Conan doesn't look any more rested himself.]

[Video.] unit_202 May 10 2011, 06:00:27 UTC

Exhausted.

[She turns a weary smile on the feed, then pauses and arches an eyebrow at him.]

...And, it would seem, I'm not alone.

[Video.] holmes_fanatic May 10 2011, 06:01:53 UTC

I think we might have a few things in common, 202-san.

[Video.] unit_202 May 10 2011, 06:07:13 UTC

...I think we just might. Are you usually prone to episodes of sleeplessness?

Woah... 202, you ok? Ya look like shit. [As always, Hidan is just overflowing with tact]

[Video] unit_202 May 10 2011, 06:05:06 UTC

Mmf. [She sighs groggily, shoulders drooping.] I feel like it.

[Video] blade_of_jashin May 10 2011, 06:09:44 UTC

[Uh... wasn't this where a person was supposed to do something for their friend? Hidan had no clue, 202 was the first friend he's had that he didn't pick fights with, and who didn't insult him]

Uh..... what's wrong? Ain't gettin' enough sleep?

[Video] unit_202 May 10 2011, 06:21:15 UTC

So it would seem... [She trails off into a wide yawn, covering it with the back of one hand before turning groggy eyes back on her watch.] ...Which is odd, for me-- I've never had trouble sleeping before. Never.

[She blinks sleepily, a thought occurring to her.]

...How about you?
