Event: Quarantine

[animusmods]

Characters: any characters trapped in rooms during the event
Setting: dormitory level rooms
Format: any
Summary: An unexpected series of explosions has trapped residents in the dorm rooms with no power and no way to get out. Try to communicate with the outside, deal with being stuck in a small room with other people... Deal with the really strange things that seem to be happening, too.
Warnings: typical Animus horror event warnings

[There are several more explosions, and the sound of things falling and crumbling outside. The dorm rooms themselves don't collapse or cave in, but the furniture and trunks and nightstands may be rattled and knocked about. Eventually, the lights flicker and go out entirely, leaving everyone in the dark. There are small red emergency lights lining the floors, but they don't seem to have come on all the way, and flicker on and off eerily.

After maybe twenty minutes everything falls silent. However, if you try the door, you'll find you can't get out...]

[The urge to tell Van to just get away from her is strong - trained healer or no, Asch doesn't trust the man very much.

He doesn't say anything, but hell if he doesn't remain hovering protectively at Sheba's side, his eyes never once coming off Van.]

Nothing.

[She says it a little too quickly to be true, but even if she'd waited a normal amount of time before responding, the pain that's very obvious in her expression would have given her away. Still, she doesn't trust Van. She'll come clean about the side effects later on, once she's sure she knows what all of them are, but she doesn't want to tell Van of all people that she's hurting. She trusts him about as far as she can throw him, and without Psynergy, that's not very far.

She shifts back, away from him, and takes a breath to steady herself - but she has to reach out and grab for Asch to keep from toppling over, because whoa, even just a little movement was dizzying. There's sort of a dazed expression in her eyes.]

I'm fine. Give me a few minutes to see what these side effects are.
