15th Fix

[techno_mancer]

[Quinn knows he can't hide in Cyuss's house forever. Eventually, he has to go back to work or he'll get droned into doing it, which is the last thing he wants to happen, next to being brutally murdered like most of the town has been. Luckily, he didn't get a letter, but that doesn't make him feel much better. He knows that friends of his out

Pretty shitty.

... Got a cigarette?

[techno_mancer]

Same here. And of course man, I've only gone through like six cartons in the last few days. [He'll fish them out of his pocket and hand one over.]

-And in the 50's, no one gave a fuck if you lit up in doors. Jotaro strikes a match and puffs vigorously.-

Fucking town had me smoking again after being clean for twenty years...

[techno_mancer]

Damn. It's got me goin' from a pack a day to three. I dunno how much it's actually helpin'.

[Also there so she doesn't get droned. She walks into the class room. She looks...really tired.]

Oh good you're still alive.

[Which she shouldn't care about at all, but someones feeling a little more....human today.]

Did you not get a letter either?

[techno_mancer]

[He blinks at her a moment, confused. Those are strange words coming from GLaDOS.]

Ah, no, thankfully I didn't. Still doesn't mean I ain't sick to my stomach about this whole thing.

[getsciencedone]

[She nods.]

A....friend of mine....from home got one.

[Ahaha...Caroline is loud today.]

...the lunatic is probably enjoying this.

[But never without snark.]

[techno_mancer]

Friend from home...?

[About ONE HAIR SHORT of bumping into you while holding onto a stack of papers, right when both of you veered the same corner but coming from differing directions! Good thing she had the reflex to pull back in time... It'd be a hassle to pick these sheets back up if they were to be scattered. ;;]

--! O-oh, mister Quinn, I'm sorry for almost running into you!

[techno_mancer]

[Quinn is startled, but manages to at least not to bump into Ciel.]

Whoa! Oh hey, sorry there, Ciel. Don't worry about it. I wasn't payin' attention, I guess.

[expiatrice]

[Wonder if purposefully doing this momentarily distracted him at all from his current worries... She gives a sheepish chuckle.]

No, I'm the one who should apologize. I was rushing even when I don't really have a good reason to, so I'm sorry for that. ...It's understandable though; I guess that everyone's just on edge, with everything that's been going on. You look a bit pale yourself; have you been sleeping at all, at least a little?

[techno_mancer]

Admittedly, not as much as I should be. Hard, with all that's goin' on around here... How ya holdin' up?
