Fourteenth Staff ♞ resumption after a weak cadence

Characters: Sayaka and your name here.
Setting: You can interrupt her when she's still in room 1-05, some vaguely-located part of the staircase,
Format: Prose is my preference, but I will match you.
Summary: Backdated to the morning of the tenth. Sayaka's back from her destroyed world, woke up in costume - and is pretty much sick of the tower's bullshit.
Warnings: Angry teenagers trying to ignore recent traumatic experiences. Also, she's currently dressed up like a spitting image of Ruana in her red-and-black outfit from week 3 from infighting, so that's fun/might lead to a flinch-worthy moment or two.

She'd never gone 'back' before.

Sayaka had heard enough about what it was like, she'd looked through those viewfinders on floor five before - but knowing or distantly seeing (and immediately dismissing) isn't the same as living.

Now that she's back in her room in the tower, rather than the desiccated wreck of her room at home... she turns her head every which-way, drinking in the uniform sterility that pervades every floor, and the not-so-much uniform personal touches brought about by her and her roommates from the long months of residence. It looks like they gained a fourth person in the room while she was gone.

How long was she gone? She's never had any particular skill at gauging long amounts of time, though she's pretty sure time spent, uh, outside the tower works on the same linear scale as time in it.

When she actually stands up to leave, Sayaka half expects something from under the bed to snatch at her ankles - that was what happened the last morning before she'd... disappeared, right? - but nothing does. Well, that's progress.

Then her overwhelming disorientation fades enough to realizes there's blond hair hanging in her face.

"...What's with this outfit...?"

When she pulls on the new hair, she realizes it feels distinctly fake (like a wig?) but that it won't come off.
..Typical, really. It's not long after that she finds the pumpkin, and it's with an air of exasperation that Sayaka greets the rest of the tower, to hunt...
...candies. This is just so stupid, and it's impossible for it not to have some deeper 'awful twist' - but really, why - should - she - care?!

Storming down stairs two at a time, Sayaka nearly just kicks the first piece she finds rather than pick it up. This is so dumb, and it doesn't even matter. She's done this song and dance. Strange things happen, then it gets worse, then people die - then they're back! Then it all just happens again!

"Don't they ever get bored?!"

Similar grumblings can be heard as she descends the floors of the tower, not terribly trying too hard to look for candy - but as it's currently in ample amounts and it's early in the day, she's ~pretty darn unconcerned~.

And Sayaka became a real Yolo that day.

Have Madoka dressed up as one of those spooky Japanese ghost girls. Think Kayako from the Grudge.

"Nope. Seeing us scramble around is just too damn fun."

Well, he still had his glasses because otherwise he'd literally be functionally blind, but guess who was stuck with an odd bald cap, some fake-looking make-up effect stitches, and a rather iconic tie and white shirt?

Guess who was also carrying that stupid pumpkin with a bunch of candy and eating a piece like it wasn't no thang

This guuuyyy

[Look who's up and similarly gloomy? Lancer had woken up in a dog kigurumi with a tutu around the middle, and was desperately trying not to be noticed as he slunk around the tower. Of course, this happens to be the perfect time for the hood to fall over his eyes, causing him to trip and come tumbling down the stairs toward Sayaka.]

It had been a few days since that one awful day where everyone had woken up with a monster under their bed. They'd survived the ordeal, but only just, and that thanks to quick thinking and Feferi being good with a trident.

Sayaka hadn't been back since that night, and a new girl had come in. It was almost a relief to hear her voice. A relief, until she turned and heard Sayaka's voice coming from --

"What the shell?! Are you Sayaka, or are you that - that beach that was around when we were in the pods? Ruana or whatever her name was? If you are, you betta give our Sayaka back. Or else."

"Ah, Sayaka! You're back!" Coming up the other way on the stairs, Kazumi waves cheerfully. She's wearing black cat costume suit and seems pretty happy about it, waving her little pumpkin bucket.

cafeteria

[S'up, Sayaka. Whenever you get down to the cafeteria, there's a really weird kid there.

For one, ze's still wearing the white jumpsuit.

For another, ze's willingly eating the oatmeal. Ze seems to be 0kay with it, despite the oatmeal being the oatmeal. Ze seems to be 0kay with being in the tower, too.

Ze hasn't noticed Sayaka though, and isn't exactly eating in a human fashion either. Ze is bent over the oatmeal bowl and is licking at it, very much like a cat.

Welp.]

[He for one woke up in a very similar circumstance. He made a little trip back home himself, though it only lasted about 2 or so days. He's a bit surprised it was ended so soon, but at the same time, considering that he woke up in some fancy costume and found the pumpkin soon after, not so much.

He was irritated, and it was pretty obvious by the way he was holding himself that he didn't really want to be bothered by something like this. For one thing, trick-or-treating is kind of childish, so he was pretty embarrassed to be walking around the tower in his little costume looking for candy. And for another thing, not only was he in costume but he also found out that his hair was completely unbraided/undreaded and those things were bitches to braid.

So you might not even recognize Kidou, being goggless and having long, fluffy hair as opposed to his usual dreadlocks. He's wearing a nice dress shirt, a flowing black cape, and he's got fake fangs in his mouth, too. Not to mention he's a lot paler than normal, thanks to some.. makeup?

And though you might not recognize him, he can recognize you underneath that... Ruana... costume......]


Yo, Sayaka. [Well at least he wasn't the only one in costume..]

Having his arm grabbed is just what he needs to at least temporarily slow his fall. It's just enough for him to land awkwardly and on his hands and knees, but at least he didn't completely fall down the stairs.

He picks himself up and turns to the girl who grabbed him.

"Thanks."

Romeo hadn't seen Sayaka in a while and was afraid she had gone forever; but when he saw her he didn't recognise her at first in her costume. He reocgnised the costume though and his eyes went wide, when she turned though he saw who it was and he ran forward.

He was dressed as a superhero, as Princess Powerful; Molly's superhero name, and he was wearing a hat. A hat with antlers. He didn't mind the costume, he was just scared that the bad people were going to hurt everyone again.

"Sayaka! You're back!"

"Yeah, I guess it did."

He pulls up the hood a little. Though he can't yank it off his head, he can still uncover his eyes.

"...You look kinda different today. Did you do something with your hair?"

[personal profile] puppy_lancer 2012-10-13 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
"...So you're also in a costume?"

It looks like a pretty tame one.

"Get the candy, right?"

"Hehe, right?" She turns about a bit, the little tail whipping around as she paws the air with the big plush paw gloves. She looks curiously at Sayaka's though. "Yours is interesting too, but what is it?"
cullscuttlefish: (in the same place I've always been)

"Like - I think Ruana was her name. The girl who seemed to really be running everything, the month we were in those pods and - and Jason."

There were some things that didn't need to be explained.

"But it's your own voice, not hers. If it's a costume, though, then that wig they have on you is reely somefin. It looks like your real hair."

"Seriously."

You can see just how goddamn amused he is yeeaaah.

"Maybe if I'm lucky I'll find a scalpel in my pocket and complete your surprise. Looks like we've got a pair to match. I think they're making fun of us."
