towerofanimus | Event: Quarantine

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...]

Warriors wear armor, be it leathern, steel, or some other material, to guard against impacts and damage--
[This is said whilst he finishes maneuvering Sephiroth into place. He gives Ishtar a tolerant glance, despite his poor mood.]
and to show their foes that they are fierce and not easily defeated.

No thanks are necessary-- and I believe the chest should suffice.
I took my own in the thigh.

Yeah, I get that part, but his is pretty hard to take off.

[ She replied nodding to his words. She's not sure what else to say while he helps her out. ]

I can see that, definitely. Okay, I'll do that then.

[ With that being said, Ishtar takes her syringe and stabs it slowly into Sephiroth's chest to get the liquid into his bloodstream. ]

Still, thank you again, Lacelot

[It was just as Riki put on their note, it took about an hour or so for the injection to bring Sephiroth around.

But as soon as thick-lashed eyelids began to twitch they opened to a stinging sense of dizziness right behind them which instantly crunched glimmers of green closed again as Sephiroth raised a gloved hand groggily to hold his forehead against the instant headache that felt as if someone had dealt a hammer blow right between his eyes.

As he lay there, not even acknowledging Ishtar or even Lancelot who might have stayed nearby, Sephiroth then realized something worse - that too-often experienced sensation of mortality, of a blanket smothering his extended senses and instincts, weighing his movements down from their usual fluidity - powerlessness.

Steeling his resolve against that sickening feeling it he rolled away from Ishtar and pushed against the floor in an attempt to at least get back into sitting-]

[ Ishtar stared close to Sephiroth but far enough that she didn't look extremely close to him. She watched as he woke up after a good hour and she gave him a brief but small apologetic smile to him, knowing that she was at fault for making him feel like he was vulnerable. She knew how much Sephiroth hated that above all else. Ishtar didn't want to get on his bad side,but she wanted to help him at least live. She knew he might not be happy with her, but he she also knew that she was one of the few in the room that would actually approach him and did what she did. ]

...Hey do you need some water or anything?

[ She knew that it was a sensitive question and she knew how he was but still. ]

[Stubbornly he forces himself back into the corner of the wall and the floor, glaring at a spot on the floor in front of him again. Exactly where he'd been sat before he passed out. He rubbed at the open gap in his chest where the smallest spot of blood from the needle that was used lingers. Above all else, he HATES being reduced to that which he abhors above all else; human.

Pointedly ignoring Nesir's existence in the room he locks his eyes on Ishtar's face when she talks. Renewed anger swells within him, that apologetic smile just spoke volumes - she'd done it, when at least being unconscious freed him from the hallucinations and all the noises. How dare she.]

Save it. [Sephiroth grumbles in her direction, the hand at his chest again rising to cradle his forehead between thumb and forefinger.]

[ How dare she?! She was concerned for his life. A bunch of stupid hallucinations wouldn't have been that big of a deal, especially when life is more important. She gave him another look before crossing her arms.

Yeah, he was pissed, but she did what she could and that was it. It's not like she wanted to. She didn't want to see him die, so she tested the waters. ]

I know you're pissed, but honestly, it's better than watching you die.

[Nesir has been sat silently all this time, lost deep in the emptiness, she is watching though and as Sephiroth regains conciousness and grumbles at Ishtar she rolls a bottle of water over to him] Be practicing what you do be teaching. [Without his powers he was as human as her, and she wasn't about to let him forget that]

[The bottle rolls and comes to rest just touching the side of Sephiroth's boot. As if triggering something electric inside him he shoots his gaze up to Nesir and Nesir alone in response. Unamused is the clear message, but it's frayed at the edges with the effects from the shot.

Now wasn't this pitifully ironic? If he wasn't feeling altogether too wretched and uncertain of his own defense being quick enough if Nesir launched a dagger next Sephiroth might well have thrown it back at her the same way she had done days ago.

But No. Sephiroth is tired by now of all of it and is at the end of the proverbial stick-with-which-to-give-a-shit and so he picks up the bottle. He hadn't even realized how dry his throat was until he'd grumbled at Ishtar and so, unscrewing the cap and smelling the water first Sephiroth took a small sip.]

There, that did no be being too hard. [She smirked and sat back, closing her eyes again, letting Ishtar deal with him. Still it was satisfying, to know that he was without his powers, just as human as her.]

I'm glad you guys are kind of getting along.

[ She replied softly. She was glad that he at least didn't snap back, though the irony was pretty damn obvious. She was already under fire, so she left it at that. Kind of was just a term used because she lacked a better term for that. ]
