Warnings: Drone death, angst, and Pit being a freaking dork.












Pit
May 1st, Room 4-18

[Pit was rubbing at his eyes, still half asleep from being put under since getting out of the Dark World. Despite still being out of it, the only thing he could think of was getting to his double's room, to see if he was okay, and hopefully by the time he finished crying and yelling at him, he'd be awake enough to punch him.]

May 6th, Floor Seventy-Seven
[Now that Pit's caught up on the goings on of the Tower? He needed to get himself ready for the fights that were obviously going to come. He wasn't going to do that by training, by working out, or by making sure his weapons were in good working order.]

HOT SPRING!!!

[...hope you weren't in the sauna, because Pit just did a massive canon ball into the water, cloths, sandals, and all.]


















Nanako Dojima
May 4th, Floor One Hundred and One

[Nanako hasn't been able to return to her room since Ken died.]

[She has been hiding in the gardens for a long time, mostly because it was the only floor she felt safe in. A lot of times she woke up, she found herself back in her room, but she scurried back to the gardens before anyone else woke up. She was so tired and stressed out from it all, that often times she found herself nodding off during the day.]

[She hated this place... she hated everything about it, and she wanted to go home.]


May 9th, Floor Twenty-Six
[Nanako was standing alone in the middle of the morgue, finally able to pull herself away from the gardens above. She didn't know what she was supposed to do... she wanted to cry and scream, but at the same time, she knew she couldn't do that. There would be no point.]

[After a moment, she curled her arms around herself, sinking to the floor.]

Daddy... I want to go home... Mommy, help me...






































Luke fon Fabre
May 10th, Room 3-14

[You could probably hear Luke whining from outside the door, followed by loud "Mieu mieu"s in response. An irritable groan followed, along with the most... awkward conversation ever.]

C'mon! I'm not wearing that!

Mieu! Miemiemieuu!

But the admins gave it to me! I don't want it!

Mieuuuuuu!!!

All right! All right! Get off of my head!!!

[It's a moment before Luke comes out of the room, wearing a new outfit, and looking absolutely sullen about it. He paused to glare at whomever decided to stop and listen outside the door.]

...what are you looking at?

May 11th, All over the Tower
[...okay, so maybe he liked the outfit they gave him.]

[Luke was trying to keep himself busy in the Tower, trying to take his mind off of last month. He's been helping lay out chips, and if you're lucky you might be able to catch him on the meadow, media, dormitories, and forest floors doing that. But it's not enough to really get his mind off of what happened, and all the drones following people around? Really doesn't help him at all; there isn't anywhere he's gone in the tower he hasn't been able to see them, and it just got to him more and more. Every time he sees one, he feels the guilt from what he was forced to do hit him in the chest again and again...]

[Finally, he snapped.]

[He was passing by the abandoned hospital ward on floor fifty-six when he noticed he was being followed. The drone wasn't really following him or even paying much attention to him; it was obvious that it was just there on its way elsewhere. Despite how obvious it was, it didn't keep Luke from turning on it.]

[He didn't really know he was doing it. One moment he was turning, and the next, he was shoving the lifeless drone off of his blade, watching it tumble back down the stairs. Luke stood there, staring... before he tightened his hand into a fist. He could feel his stomach churning -- he had just killed someone -- but... if he could get rid of them...]

You are...?

[Nanako stared at her in surprise, a small look of hope on her face.]

How...?
slightlyoblivious: (Default)

[personal profile] slightlyoblivious 2013-05-12 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
We are.

[Yukiko smiles, lowering her voice to a whisper.]

I can't tell you right here. Let's go get your face washed, and I'll tell you everything while we do that, all right?
justiceinheaven: (I can take care of myself.)

[personal profile] justiceinheaven 2013-05-12 12:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[Nanako sniffled softly, before giving a nod. If there was a way out of this horrible place, and her brother and everyone was going to get her out, she really needed to know. Maybe she would be able to take Ken with her...]
slightlyoblivious: (concerned about this)

is it okay to handwave elevators?

[personal profile] slightlyoblivious 2013-05-12 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[With that, Yukiko nods, then thinks for a second. Nearest ladies' room...there's one off the big library, right? She thinks so, and it's a lot closer than going up to the dorms...but better not to risk it, if she's not one hundred percent positive where things are. So it's off to the elevators, towards the dorms. As they go up, there's one more thing to say, before the big one.]

Nanako-chan...while we're working on this. If you ever need someone to talk to and you can't find Yu-kun, I'm in room 3-11, okay? You can come and find me.
justiceinheaven: (Ubu...)

That's fine!

[personal profile] justiceinheaven 2013-05-13 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Nanako paused a moment, before she gave a nod.]

...okay.

[She didn't want to give her room number. She... didn't ever want to go back there again...]
slightlyoblivious: (lost in thought)

[personal profile] slightlyoblivious 2013-05-13 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
[Once the elevators finished going all the way up, Yukiko steered Nanako into the closest ladies' bathroom, getting a washcloth down for her. Just in case, she started running water in one of the sinks before bending down to Nanako's eye level.]

Okay. You can tell Yu-kun that I told you this, and you can talk to me, Yosuke, Rise-chan, Naoto-kun, and Kanji-kun about it. But other than that, it needs to be kept a secret, all right?

The other day, Yu-kun explained to me that there's a lady here named Zelda. She's been here a long time, and she found out that one of the admins didn't agree with the other ones. That admin's name was Dax, and because he saw how much we were hurting, he decided he wanted to help us. He found out how to send us home, but he...because he didn't agree with the rest of the admins, and because he wanted to help us...

[She swallows hard.]

He died because he wanted to help us.

But it's not over. Dax-san left Zelda-san some instructions and some devices that we're putting up all over the tower, secretly. Your big brother trusts her, and I trust him.
justiceinheaven: (You're being mean.)

[personal profile] justiceinheaven 2013-05-13 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
[Nanako nodded slightly, trying to absorb everything she was saying... but, she still didn't really get it.]

I don't really understand... but if it'll bring us home...

[She looked down at her feet.]

...can we bring Ken-kun too...?
slightlyoblivious: (waiting for something)

[personal profile] slightlyoblivious 2013-05-13 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
It was kind of hard for me to understand, too. I don't know entirely how it's going to work myself, but I trust that it will.

[Yukiko blinks, a little confused, but then nods.]

A friend of yours is a friend of ours, too, Nanako-chan, so of course. We'll do our very best to make sure that happens.
justiceinheaven: (S-so much shiness...)

[personal profile] justiceinheaven 2013-05-13 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
...g-good.

[She pinked a little, looking down at a tile that she was toeing with her shoe. Still, it wasn't long before a sad look crossed her face again.]

...that way, Ken-kun doesn't have to ever die again...
slightlyoblivious: (not your lost princess)

[personal profile] slightlyoblivious 2013-05-15 05:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[...wait a second. Was that - oh gosh, how cute! Absolutely adorable.

But then Nanako's face fell again, and Yukiko frowned along with it, making a mental note to ask someone else who had been in the Tower longer than she had about what she was hearing.]


We'll protect both of you, Nanako-chan.

Listen, I know that haven't been here very long myself, and I don't know everything that you've been through. But there's something that I do know, and that's that it's okay to cry and it's okay to feel sad. I cry sometimes too, when I'm feeling sad. And I cry sometimes because I miss seeing my family, or because I miss seeing Chie.

Here's the important thing, though: you're not alone. I'm with you. Everyone else from home is with you. Your mom and dad, and Ken-kun? They're with you, too. They are always going to be with you. Just like my family is with me, and like Chie's with me.

They're with me - and with you - because we haven't forgotten about them. They're always going to be right there in our hearts, cheering us on.

[Nanako looked up at that, a bit of a hopeful look coming to her face. After a moment, she gave a nod, throwing her arms around Yukiko in a big hug. Yeah, she was right... no matter what happened, she knew her big brother would be there for her, and that her father was always looking out for her, no matter where he was. She gave her an extra squeeze, before letting her go.]

[She reached up, rubbing at her eyes; she could be sad later, when everything was done and over with.]


Yukiko, can you tell me what the devices look like? I want to cheer them on!

[personal profile] slightlyoblivious 2013-05-22 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
[Yukiko was all too happy to return that hug, scooping Nanako up into her arms. When she let go, she smiled brightly.]

Did your dad or your big brother ever need to fix the TV, or the computer you have? They look kind of like something that would go inside there...it's kind of hard to explain, other than they're like that.
