[b]Brown![/b] "Yeah it does," said Brown. Unfortunately for Apostle he said a lot of stuff that Brown really wanted to spend a week thinking about. She was getting a lot out of this conversation also but had no idea how to sustain it when it felt like it reached a natural conclusion. Just... smash cut to something else, right? It would have been perfect if Junta had woken up and she'd been able to fade into the background. She liked Apostle a lot. But that didn't mean she knew how to keep stuff going. [b]Pink![/b] She can't be here. With herself. With her thoughts. Quiet. Still. It's like she's covered in ants, like she needs to leap up out of her skin, power walk the fuck away from here, plug in to media as hard as possible. Describing it isn't sufficient, it's somewhere between terror and revulsion and it's all focused on the trivial act of having to be alone with her thoughts for a few seconds. It's riotous, incompatible with skin, trying to harness electricity, her whole mind grounding through itself over the course of a single lightning strike. She can't be here. She needs to do something. Needs to do [i]everything[/i]. ############# said Pink through the phone. Ack, no good, that was code for manipulating her proprietary voicebox. She analyzes, picks out a text-to-speech program, composes and sends it an email. [quote] Dear Fiona, While that was as bad as I thought, it was not bad in the way I thought. I thought it would be terror and was not prepared for it to be revulsion/craving. I don't know what that means. Yours truly, Pink[/quote] [b]Yellow![/b] Yellow: Are you sure you want to ask me? Yellow: I mean, I'm not asking in a self depreciating way ^^;✿ Yellow: mostly .-.✿ Yellow: I mean. Hmm, how to put it? Yellow: Okay, so, I can't focus in on a single event, even one as big as a wedding. I need to see it in the context of the whole relationship. Which means I'll need to get all weird and questioning and intense about a bunch of personal stuff. Yellow: Mess with stuff that's not mine to mess with Yellow: The other colours have made it pretty clear I'm not supposed to do that <.<✿ >.>✿ <.<✿ [b]Red![/b] "Nice to meet you, Corday," said Red. "Alright, so when you say lockdown, are you saying they've got officers on site, they've got a full riot formation on site, or they've just pulled the shutters? Because whatever's there [i]is [/i]going to get walked through and it'd be real nice if we could get it out of the way first. Any ideas on that?"
