you need a bloody shower [post-event mingle]

[bloodyashes]

Characters: Any and all!
Setting: Floor 77, sauna
Format: Action-mingle - start your own threads!
Summary: The event is over and everyone who was stuck in the dorms needs a serious bath.
Warnings: Post-event shenanigans? Also baths so p much everyone is at least partially naked.

And so now that you've made your way free of the hell that is the dorm rooms -

This floor mimics a sauna--there are three entrances: one for men, one for women, and one for mixed. Inside each room is the wooden interior one would expect. Outside each area is a small changing room with lockers--if you look, you'll find one with your name on it. The locker will only open up for you. It might be a good place to store things, actually...

- it's time for everyone to take a bath! There's both hot, steamy stalls and large hot spring pools - but you'd better hurry! It's gonna get crowded in here kind of fast.

And hey, keep that towel closed, there's children in here!

[Rick makes a silent "Oh" and is about to suggest what a much better idea that was than his own when Waver drops that last statement on him. He knits his eyebrows with concern.]

...Th--That bad?

[fionnuisce]

Aside from the rampant arguments and stupidity? Hallucinations. Goddamned weird ones.

[bashfulshifter]

Oh. [He bites his lip.] ...I-I'm g-g-guessing you d-don't w-want to t-talk about it.

[fionnuisce]

No, actually it wasn't as traumatic as you'd think. Speaking only for mysself, of course. To keep it simple, I for one kept seeing some kind of hospital. At least that's what I assume it was.

Not to mention something was very intent on us keeping our voices down. Strange all around, really.

[bashfulshifter]

[Rick blinks in surprise. He honestly wasn't expecting Waver to be so forward with him, of all people...ah well. Better listen well if he trusts him with this kind of information.]

[This works out well, because Rick actually does find a correlation in all of this. He doesn't like it.]

...H-Hospital? [He goes strangely pale.] L-Like...like a w-ward, m-maybe?

[fionnuisce]

[nah you seem pretty okay rick]

Hard to say, really. You'd have to ask one of the others to be certain.

[bashfulshifter]

Who e-else were you w-with?

[fionnuisce]

Diarmuid, Cu Chulainn, Karna, Suzaku, Asagi, and a kid named Ken Amada, I think.

...It was a little crowded.

[bashfulshifter]

[He pulls a face.]

...Were you a-able to m-move b-b-between r-rooms?

[fionnuisce]

That would have been too easy.

[taste that sarcasm. it tastes like bitter irritation.]

[bashfulshifter]

[Rick visibly winces.]

That...s-s-sounds p-pretty, ah...t-tedious.

[That's the light way of putting it.]

...At l-least it was w-with p-p-people you knew, y-yeah?

[fionnuisce]

Yes. So I know who to strangle later.

[is he joking...]

[bashfulshifter]

[Yes, he...must be joking. Rick laughs nervously.]

Aha...well...e-everyone's okay, and th--that's w-what's i-i-important, right?

[fionnuisce]

[whatever helps you sleep at night, rick]

As far as I'm aware, even with the surprise catastrophe I think we had a rather low rate or mortality this month. I'm almost impressed.

[bashfulshifter]

[Rick once again looks concerned.]

...A-Are R-R-Riki's months not n-normally this...uh...p-pleasant? I mean...r-relatively s-s-speaking.

[fionnuisce]

As far as I know, they're less awful than Ruana's or Jason's. Still, I had to express surprise that any of them could give us what amounts to a break. I suppose we've an even split of 'god-awful' and 'actually not terrible' administrators now.

[bashfulshifter]

Y-Yeah, I... [He sighs.] ...I w-wish there was s-some way we c-could thank him.
