IC INTRO - JUNE '18

After the fight with the siren has settled, those characters with phones hooked to the KEystone network will get a text -

Okay, everyone, you had better come back in. There's a storm brewing just off the coast.

Even given Up's usual professionalism, it seems rather... subdued?

----

For once, there are no androids at all to greet you upon your return, or arrival, as the case may be. A shelter has been set up for the boats on the shoreline of Glitterstone, however. By the time you tromp up the lighthouse stairs to the level of the Station itself, the sky is beginning to grey with the promised storm.

There's not the typical feast outside, but there is a fairly extensive taco bar set up in the common room, left unattended as well. The room sign-up sheet and boxes of freebies are also there, complete with the Braille versions, and a note at the bottom of both room sheets reads "If all rooms are full, space has been made in the meeting rooms on the top floor. We'll have additional rooms available as soon as possible."

It does appear that someone has updated the murder counter while you were away, however, for the turning of the week. It now reads 15 weeks without murder.

Other than that, you're free to explore, including in the newly finished sections of the Annex (should you be willing to brave the storm to get between buildings). However, wherever you go, the androids are almost conspicuously absent - even in the medical bay and Down's workstation in the command center.

The meeting room they have for their own private use is securely closed and locked.

He'd drag me into joy whether I held out my hand or not. Just grab me by the arm and catch me when I inevitably stumble.

A familiar sentiment if ever I heard one, certainly.

It's still a bit frightening, but the sort of fear I mind not at all. It's a reminder than I'm alive.

[A pause.]

Also, he's the perfect size to sit in my lap and cuddle with, so I positively cannot complain.

Joke's on you, Leonard's the perfect height for hugging.

"Easily picked up" is also the perfect height for hugging.

...Fair point.

Although you would be wrong to think I can't pick him up.

I'm sure you could. I mean, I know I could, and if I have any muscular edge on you now it won't be by that much.
burninglight: (fighting and striving for the light)

Don't make this a competition, because I'll win.

Just do try to not stretch yourself to the limit again? It has the unfortunate tendency to leave explaining to your glaive to me why you just collapsed on the nearest semihorizontal surface.
burninglight: (suddenly i see that i can't break free)

[personal profile] burninglight 2018-06-15 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, now you're acting like you're my mother too?
founderinglight: ([beep])

[personal profile] founderinglight 2018-06-15 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
Always have. It's nice to share the workload for once.
burninglight: (choosing hope when hope seemed lost)

[personal profile] burninglight 2018-06-15 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
Whatever. I'm just out of practice, that's all.
founderinglight: ([hold])

If I didn't trust you to them, you'd never be free of my fussing, in all likelihood.
