SCIENCE PARTY

[tempustemporum]

[Light. Steady light, cold light, definitely-not-coming-from-Ven's-bonfires light. Why is there light in the infirmary? Ienzo doesn't know, but like an idiot, he decides to investigate. Maybe there are backup lights in here too.]

SCIIIIENCE 9OAO9

[knightmaking]

[That's right, Ienzo. A mechanical light, for sure, with none of the warmth of a fire. Sadly, instead of the backup lights he may have hoped for, it is only a lone flashlight on the floor. It lays more than a few steps in, deep enough that it's hard to make out anything nearby or behind it.]

OOC: DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO DA DOO. WEIRD SCIENCE.

[tempustemporum]

[What.]

[Who could have left a flashlight on the floor? How long has it been sitting here? It's been what, three days, since the power went out, and there's no way that someone could just leave a flashlight there and someone else decides not to pick it up. People just don't work that way.]

[Unfortunately, as much as he tries to deny it, Ienzo is in fact a person, and so of course he ventures deeper into the room.]

[knightmaking]

[As Ienzo walks further in, closer towards the flashlight, the shapes of the room might come into better focus. Darker things against the dark, so to speak. Behind the flashlight is something like that...

Something else sprawled on the floor...]

[thursdaywings]

[ Wingbeats break the silence in the dark, and Castiel glances around, frowning. He was following the strange voices that seemed to call out to him, but he never did manage to get contact.

Until now. ]

Who are you. Show yourself.

[ Of course, talking to voices was something he does often. ]

[knightmaking]

[Silence is his only answer. Silence and the light from a flashlight that has been left on the infirmary floor.]

[thursdaywings]

[ No answer. Right.

The angel walks over to the light, bending down to pick it up. ]

[knightmaking]

[When Castiel bends down to pick the light up, he may note a dark mass sprawled on the floor not far behind the device. Is that...]

[spiritsup]

[Romeo saw the light and peeked into the door wondering if someone was there] Hello? [He saw the light and went over to it, it wasn't a candle but it wasn't like the lights that now didn't work in the tower. He reached out to touch it, wondering how it worked since it didn't seem hot at all!]

[knightmaking]

[No reply! It would appear that the infirmary is empty, despite the flashlight abandoned on the floor. As Romeo reaches out to touch the light, he might notice something else nearby the device. There is a dark shape sprawled out on the floor behind the light, easily big enough to be... a person, perhaps?]

[spiritsup]

[Romeo blinked at the shape, was that a person? Where they injured?] Hello? Are you alright? [He steps closer to the shape]

[knightmaking]

[Alas, Romeo, no. No he is not. The body in the lab coat is no doubt a familiar one to him, only it isn't moving. No response, no breathing...]
